(Kronnelti and Dianna's personal room)

Kronnelti and Dianna both got up and saw Spike was curled up with Zimia, he went into the kitchen and started making breakfast.

Eggs, bacon, home fries and toast along with coffee and tea.

The smell of tea woke Zimia up, mmm that smells good, he poured some for Dianna and Zimia. Then he made their plates.

Kronnelti made a protein shake and some toast with honey for himself.

So Kevin said the gym I big and I figured you would like to walk around he asked. Dianna I would love to after taking a sip of tea.

What are you going to do he? asked Zimia

I think I'll go too.

After breakfast they all headed for the gym.

( Gym )

Seeing that Vaytoc got distracted from his run, Mira looked over to see what had gotten his attention. Kronnelti was easy to spot with his height. "Ok, go say hi while I finish this lap."

She told him with a grin. It was about time for her to get a protein shake. She made it the full lap and then came to join them. "This place is fantastic. Zimia, there is even a pool."

Seeing Mira finish her lap he walked over and said surprise as he hands her a shake as he finishes his.
"Thank you I needed this" Mira told him as she took the shake

Dianna gives her a hug and says I'll talk to you later as she goes with Zimia and walks the gym.

I'm surprised Kevin isn't here yet, I'm going to go bench spot me? he asked Mira

Sure just don't go too crazy, he puts the weights on adding it all up comes to 350 lbs.

He lays down, puts his hands on the bar and lifts using proper breathing.

Counting as he lifts does 9 sets and with the last push he pulls off the last one making 10 sets.

Mira raised an eyebrow at the weight. "You do know I can only lift about my own weight. " she laughed, she would be hard pressed to save him. Then she set the weight on the bench next to the one he picked for herself at about fifty. So they wouldn't have to keep changing the weight. "So how is the new quarters?" she asked as she laid-back and started her reps.

Good he said, she loves it. I had Zimia stay the night since you and Kevin stayed out.

"you do know she has her own quarters " Mira grinned "don't let her move in. Unless you want her to."

"I haven't seen Kevin since last night. Maybe he forgot."
as Mira did her last rep her arm gave out but Kronnelti caught it with one hand. "That arm is bad. "
Mira nodded " know I tried to the rock wall and fell. Luckily they insisted I be hooked up.


Kevin was off in a remote corner of the gym, performing sets of the clean and jerk with a barbell and four full plates, two each side. He was intensely focused on completing the motions of the exercise with perfect form and did not notice the entry of Mira, Kronnelti and Dianna. Between sets, he was too preoccupied with thoughts of his early morning visitor to pay any attention to his surroundings.

After the visit, he had been too upset to fall back asleep and finally had given up trying at five in the morning. The high intensity of his workout helped to settle his mind but he was no closer to understanding the meeting then he had been at its termination.

I know she does he said but it was late.

Mira nodded her understanding.

Off in the distance Kronnelti heard somebody grunting, he whistles to Spike to find the person who is grunting.

Spike's head pops up then he leaps off Zimia toward the sound, getting closer he saw it was Kevin then runs with excitement.

Spike sends Kronnelti a picture of Kevin on the corner.

He looks at Mira, Spike found Kevin he said as he points to the corner off in the distance.

She gave a little frown "He looks like he has a lot on his mind." Mira told him . Letting Kronnelti do his reps

Kronnelti sent two whistles indicating to return. He did three more reps then put the bar back and sat up.

I'll be back then he got up and walked over to Kevin, he sat legs crossed off to his side. Hey you ok? You don't seem like you said Kronnelti.

You look more stressed than anything.

Kevin was shocked out of his between set reverie but quickly recovered by saying, "It's nothing really. Just considering what I have to do today. Base businesses and why my quarters assignment got screwed up. Typical Second Officer work." He nodded a greeting in the direction of Mira and Dianna.

Ok he said, don't overdo yourself then walked away.

Mira gave up the weight bench and moved to the recline straps. She was able to wrapped the straps around her wrist, using her own weight to pull herself up. It was how she normally worked out on her own without a spotter.

Rodriguez joined her with a smirk "4, 3 2 1" all the screens changed over to Chuck Norris movies as Mira laughed.

Kevin gave a shake of his head as he said gloomily, "More work for the Second Officer," but there was a smile on his lips.

Noticing the time he continued, "And with that, I have ship's watch in 45 minutes." He walked over to where Mira was working out.

"I'm sorry I missed you," he apologized, "Maybe we can catch up after change of watch."

Mira smiled up at him. "Let's make a deal with each other. If we can't make a date, we just say something has come up. I won't even ask why. " She smiled "Now if you just want to sit on the ship, you're welcome to, but command officers never have watch on ship once we have docked at home-based. That's normally a couple of security officers stationed outside the ship. Now I am off to the pool." She kissed his cheek and then looked at the viewer with a smile."So that is Chuck Norris? interesting." she moved off to rinse off, then change into her starfleet issued one-piece bathing suit.
