[ussbansheec] "Holiday"

"Holiday"
Ensn. Moria McEntire

Lingering in that place just before waking up and not quite asleep, Moria 
frowned when she heard the hiss of her main cabin doors open and close. Pulling 
her covers over her head she hoped that it would deter her guest from bothering 
her. When she suddenly felt added weight flop onto her bed beside her she 
moaned. 

"Sign this." Emma said as she shoved a padd under the blankets. 

With her eyes firmly closed Moria ignored the padd. "Go away, Em." 

Emma smiled. She and Moria had been reconnecting over the past three months 
since Moria's reassignment to the Endeavor, and they were closer then they ever 
were before. "I will once you sign the padd." 

"I'm not singing anything you throw in front of me, Counselor. I don't trust 
lawyers." Came Moria's bed muffed reply. 

With a mock pout Emma laid down next to the redhead and pulled the covers away 
from her friend's face. "You don't trust me?" 

"I don't trust the law degree from Cambridge." Yawning, Moria gave up any hope 
of getting any more sleep and finally opened her eyes to look at the blonde. 
The sight that greeted her made her roll her eyes and moan. She hated when Emma 
pulled off the kicked puppy look, she did it even better then James. "What is 
it?" 

Emma smiled when Moria sat up and picked up the padd. "You've been on this tub 
for nearly four months now, Mo." 

Moria had to think about that for a moment. Had it really been that long? "Yeah 
so?" 

"You haven't had more then a day off every two weeks." Emma went on. "So we're 
going on holiday." 

Grey sleepy eyes looked over and into clear bright blue ones. Gods how she 
hated morning people. "We are?" 

Emma smiled a bright smile as she nodded her head, "There's this huge Arts and 
Humanities festival on Betazed. My Mom's going to be there showing some of her 
films, there's some art exhibits, music from all over. Just your cup of tea." 

She had to admit it sounded good. She'd been dying to meet Emma's adoptive 
mother, and she wouldn't mind taking a look at some new artists. Looking over 
the padd she started to smirk. "Two weeks off huh?" 

"Couple days to get there, week of fun, couple days to get back. What do you 
say Mo?"

She thought about it for a few more moments and then finally nodded and signed 
the padd. Emma let out a yelp of glee and snatched the padd back. "Better get 
packing, girl. We leave at the end of the week." 

Moria laughed and then settled back into her bed. This sounded fun.
