<USS Avalon> Would She Be Good For Me?

Would She Be Good For Me?
By 2nd Lieutenant Keith Ketchum and Staff Sergeant Phillipa Waterson

 

The Klaxons turned off, and the all clear was given.  Another day they would 
survive.

 

Keith secured the phaser rifles on deck 13 with Phillipa's assistance, "Thank 
you, Sergeant."

 

"Always willing to assist, Sir."

 

"Would you, and you can say no of course, it isn't an order after all."  He 
thought 'Would she be good for me?'

 

She looked at him peculiarly, "Would I what?"

 

"Sorry, would you like to get some food in the mess hall", he didn't look at 
her, but rather down the corridor as if Georgia would come around the corner.

 

"I would like that, Sir."

 

They walked along to one of the lower deck mess halls, that the Engineers used. 
 This way, hopefully, no one from security would bother them.  They were off 
duty, but you never know.

 

They grabbed some food and sat at a quiet table in the corner.  

 

"Sir", she started to inquire on something.

 

"Call me, Keith.  We are off-duty after all."

 

"I'll try, Keith."  She smiled.  "What did you get?"

 

"I think it's called pasta."

 

"Oh, I've read about that.  Is it good?"

 

"It's a little spicy, one of the ingredients anyway."

 

She took her fork and tasted it, "Tasty."  But she wasn't referring to the food 
as her foot rubbed against his leg.

 

He was visibly aware of her foot as he rushed through eating.  Once he was 
finished he stood, "I think I better get back to my quarters, I need to get 
some sleep, and get to work early tomorrow."

 

"Can I walk you back?"

 

He nodded.  'Now what, Keith', he thought to himself.

 

They walked along making polite conversation, once they arrived at his 
quarters.  "Well.  Here they are."

 

"Yes, they most certainly are."

 

He tapped the controls and the door slid open.  "Thank you for having dinner 
with me."

 

"Anytime, Keith."  This time it was her that looked up and down the corridor.  
When she saw it was clear, she leaned in and kissed him.  Softly at first, then 
with a purpose.  Slowly she led him into his quarters and the door slid shut.

 

They kissed some more as she unzipped his uniform top.  "I... I? never."

 

"Shhh? we'll take it easy and that way we will both enjoy it", as his uniform 
top fell to the floor.

 

The next morning he awoke and looked over at Phillipa sleeping next to him, he 
smiled.  'What a night', he thought.  He looked at the chronometer, and arose 
and slipped into the shower, he might be early for once.

 

As he came out of the shower, she had already left.  He finished getting ready 
and saw the note on the table, "Keith.  I hope to see you later.  Phillipa"

 

He smiled again and set off for Security.  Maybe she would be good for him.
