[USS Calypso - Chief Warrant Officer Thompson Quarters]

It had been a few days since he had arrived aboard the Calypso. It didn't seem that much had changed since he had been gone but he did notice a few new crew members on his roster. He decided that he should begin meeting with these new crew members just to get to know them a little bit better. The first person that caught his eye was Chief Warrant Officer Callen Thompson, an unjoined female Trill that was a Shuttlebay Manager as well as a Quartermaster.

He headed towards her quarters. It might not be the most professional place to meet but it was where she was at the moment and it would allow him to get a sneak peek into her world to better get to know her as he had done with any of his people. He arrived at her door and chimmed it.

Callen just had gotten back from the planet and exteremly tired and was looking forward to her time off for the next couple of days. She wore a simple out fit, black leggins, black tank top and big white fuzzy socks. She made herself some warm herbal tea to drink and was ready to relax. As she sat down on the couch she heard her door chime. She was confused to whom it could be at this hour so she simple stated, "Aw. Come in?"

Tovan could have picked a better time to stop by but it was already too late the door opened and he stood there in front of her quarters looking on the inside. He saw a Trill female sitting on the couch. He recognized her as the Chief Thompson from the picture on her file, plus who else would it be...these were her quarters of course. He smiled. "I'm sorry for bothering you. I can come back another time."

Callen blinked her eyes, "No. Please stay. I don't mind." Then she gave him a soft smile and oftered him a set across from her, "Tea?", she asked him as he sat down.

Tovan still wasn't sure but since she insisted he stepped inside her quarters. "Thank you." He said as he took a seat. "And sure on the tea."

Callen poured him a cup of tea and handed it over to him when she sat down. She soon then poured herself some and said, "I'm Callen Thompson. But you can call me Callen. What may I do for you Lt. Cmdr?"

"Thank you," Tovan said as he took the cup from her and placed it on the table in front of him. "It's nice to meet you Callen...I'm Delon Tovan, the Chief Operations Officer here on Calypso...I just returned aboard from a mission to Earth and noticed you on our roster..." Tovan paused for a moment to take a breath. "So, I wanted to stop by and introduce myself...I guess I could have picked a better time..." He smiled.

"O no," she replied, "I just got back myself from are current mission. Today is my last day for a mini vacation. I'm glade you stopped by Delon. If you don't mind me calling you that. At lest off duty." Then she took a sip of her tea, "So did you mission to earth go well?"

"I see..." Tovan said as he placed the PADD on the table in front of him right next to the cup filled with his tea. "In that case, I shall not discuss work with you. It can wait until another time." He said as he grabbed his cup of tea and sipped at it. After a few sips he placed the cup back down on the table and looked at her. "It went well. It was rather busy I must admit. "

"Really," Callen cooed before she took a sip, "May I ask what it is about? Or was it top seceret." Then she smiled with the cup just below her mouth before she took another sip of her tea.

"Top Secret, of course." Tovan responded with a grin on his face. He adjusted himself in the chair slightly in order to get more comfortable and looked across the table at his host.

"I see," she replied with a evil smile, "Well then how long have you been here on this ship? I'm shocked no one has mentioned you yet to me. But rarely does are posistions on this ship ever cross each other."

"I have been here for some time now. Well, on and off as you can tell." Tovan replied then in a playful manner allowed a hurt look to appear on his face. "No one has mentioned me to you before...? Hmmm..."

"Well thats alright," she replied, "I'm sure we'll have enough time to get to know one another over time." Then she took another sip of her tea, "How you likeing the tea? Its a Trill herbal its to relax a person and clear the mind."

Tovan nodded. "I suppose you are right about that Chief..." He stated as he took another sip. As he pulled the cup away from his lips he looked inside it for a second before looking to her. "It's very nice. Do you often drink this?"

"Once and a while. The herbal is very hard to uptain so far way from my home world," she confessed taking another drink. She thought for a moment then sat her drink down and got up from the couch. She held out her hand and stated, "Come with me."

His eye brow raised ever so slightly as she told him to follow her. He didn't resist but simply got up from his seat and followed Callen.

Holding his hand she pulled him out of her quarters and headed towards the turbo lift. Once they were in she simply had a grin on her face. The doors closed and she gave the command of what deck they needed to go. Upon there arrival the doors open and she walked out and headed towards the Helo suite door. She typed in a program and it stated, "Enter when ready." She turn to face him and asked, "Ready?"

Tovan followed her. He had no idea what she was doing or what program they were about to enter but he nodded anyway. "Yes, ready."

Callen slowly pulled Tovan into the Helo suite with a small smile on her face. The room was warm and tropical setting. A young trill woman greeted them with, "Hello welcome to Kelm Spa retreat."

"Hello I have reservation for two," Callen replied to the woman. The woman nodded her head and said, "Fallow me." Callen smiled at Tovan once more and stated, "Every one needs to get away once and awhile. Why not a place were you can be pampered for a while." Then she pulled him further in for a nice spa treatment.
