[USS Calypso - Holodeck]

Allison tried to do whatever it took during the day to make sure that she got off her shift on time. Today was the day that she had scheduled some holo-suite time. She was looking forward to going swimming on the beaches of Bahamas. Every time she closed her eyes, she could see the white sandy beach with the waves coming in and colliding with the surface. The water clear and warm. Perfect for relaxing.

Unfortunately she was running late today, when she finally managed to get off her shift she was 45 minutes late. It meant that she only had about 30 minutes of time to go swimming. She hurried down the corridor and rushed inside her quarters. She quickly stripped out of her uniform and her under garment and put on a purple bikini on, grabbed a towel and rushed out of her quarters and down the corridor. She wasn't concerned with everyone that passed by her looking at her. She was too excited and at the same time frustrated that she only such a small amount of time to enjoy the beach.

She quickly launched the program and entered the holo-suite. She was met by a friendly breeze and a path that lead through a line up palm trees. She could hear the water in the direction of the path. The waves smacking against the beach. There was no one else there but her and she loved it. She quickly made her way down the path and the opening of the beach. She threw her towel and sandals on the sand and rushed across the warm sand that burned her feet and into the cool refreshment of the ocean.

It wasn't as good as the real ocean but it would have to do she thought to herself as she went under the water to wet her hair. As she enjoyed the cool water and the environment she completely lost track of time.

James had made his way to the holo-suite. He was planning on running a few holo-novel that he received from his friend but as he accessed the panel he noticed that the suite was already running. The setting was a beach. Him being a big swimmer he decided to take a peak into the program and see just who it was that was inside.

As the doors opening he was met by the same sight as Allison was when she entered. A path leading through a line of palm trees. The sound of ocean in the direction, but he couldn't her anyone else. He was slightly over-dressed for the occasion as he came in the clothing appropriate for holo-novel. He asked the computer to replicate the appropriate clothing and quickly changed into it.

He walked down the path and came into the clearing where he could see clear blue water and the white sandy beach. He noticed a person in the distance jumping waves. He chuckled lightly as he watched the person. It was a female he noted to himself. He couldn't remember seeing her before but than again he was at a distance. She hadn't noticed him just yet.

He had taken a few steps forward when he noticed a wave that was coming in. It was bigger than most he had seen up to this point while he had been standing there. She saw it at a last moment and tried to move with the wave but it swallowed her under. James ran towards the water worried and as he was about to jump in he noticed her come up.

"Are you alright...?" James called out to her. She was more startled by the sudden voice than by the wave that had just tossed her around a little bit. She quickly turned around to look at him. There was a puzzled expression on her face as well as on his. She was about to say something but she noticed him staring at her, it wasn't at her face but lower. She looked down to noticed that her top had been blown off by the last wave.

She turned bright red. Her top was floating on top of the water a few feet away from her. "Turn around!" Allison ordered with him a bit of a yell and he did just that. She moved over to her top. She couldn't believe that just happened to her. It was rather embarrassing.

James stood there. It was probably embarrassing for her but he couldn't help but admire what he had seen. He was lost in his own little world for the moment that he didn't hear when she had stepped out of the water. "Who are you...?" Allison asked as she walked past him heading for the towel.
James looked up as he saw her walk by him. "My name is James Munro." James called back out to her as she watched her walk for a second before turning back around and looking to the water.

"You know James, it's rude to sneak into someone's holo-program when you aren't invited." She grabbed the towel off the ground and brought it to her face drying it. She peaked from the corner of her eye over at the man. He wasn't looking at her any longer. She was sure that she was still very red from what had just happened.

"I know, and I'm sorry." James said as he turned around to face her once again. "It's just that you see I had scheduled a time and when I arrived at the door it was already running..."

Allison cursed herself as she had gone over the time. She couldn't really blame him now but she was still embarrassed by completely flashing a strange. At least she thought he was cute so it wasn't all that bad but it was no way to make a first impression. "I'm sorry about that." Allison said as she put on her sandals and headed towards the door.

"It's alright, I have another hour of time scheduled if you want to swim I don't mind." James called back. He hoped that she would stay at least allow him to make up for what had happened. He wasn't sure just how he was going to do that one but he would think of something. At least he hoped he could.

Allison paused a moment. She looked over her shoulder. "No, that's alright. I think you've seen more than enough of me for one day. But maybe another time." She smiled at him and winked before turning around and heading out.

James chuckled to himself.
