(USS Exeter –Sickbay - Lieutenant Ire Williams/ Ensign Rylee Page - 1800)

 

Ire stepped into Rylee`s room. He had been dreading this moment since he landed. At least when he was flying he was able to keep his mind on piloting the Broken Bow rather than the fact that he had grievously injured Rylee for a second time. He saw that she was sleeping so he sat down in the chair by her bed and spoke softly.

 

“Hi Rylee, it's Ire, I am not sure if you can hear me as you are still probably up to your eye balls with drugs.”

 

He looked at her to see if she had made any movement. He paused for a moment collecting his thoughts and then carried on.

 

“I am sorry that you got hurt due to me putting you in so much danger. First when I was taken and then now. I know that you are a competent individual and no one forced you into the Broken Bow but I was being selfish and was glad to have you flying with me again. I should have swapped you out with someone else, especially after what happened the first time.”

 

He paused for a moment. 

 

Opening her eyes slowly, Rylee turned her head to look at him,

 

"I'm the bad…. Luck charm…. Not your fault."

 

Ire blushed slightly.

 

“Sorry I did not mean to disturb you. I should go and let you rest.”

 

"Stay… company. "

 

“Are you sure I don't want to knacker you out. Especially since you have just had surgery.”

 

Breathing slowly, she smiled, "stay…. Please."

 

“Okay. How are you feeling?”

 

".... ten rounds with a Klingon…."

 

“That`s understandable. You have been through a lot.”

 

"None…. Your fault."

 

“So you heard that then…..It's true I was the pilot and senior officer so your safety is my responsibility but also I value you as a friend and I am sorry for all this.”

 

"Not….. needed."

 

“I am sorry.”

 

"I…. Don't worry…"

 

“I promise that this won't happen to you again.”

 

"Good…. Man… she's… lucky…"

 

Ire smiled.

 

“I am the lucky one.”

 

Closing her eyes briefly, Rylee opened them again,

 

"Hey…. You."

 

“Hey you to.”

 

"Fancy… meeting you… here."

 

“I came to see how you are doing.”

 

"Tired…."

 

Ire nodded and stood up. 

 

“Take it easy Rylee and I hope you get back on your feet soon.”

 

Her eyes closed gently as she breathed deeply. Knowing that she was through the worse allowed her to sleep.
