"I know you are about to leave soon Babe, but I wanted to say good luck, and I wanted to see that lovely face." Paul said with big loving eyes through the computer terminal in Cyndi's office. He had a feeling that she was completing a few reports before the Amandora for her mission to the planet's surface.

Cyndi smiled at her husband "I've been thinking about you and the kids. How are you all settling in on Star Base Danvers? We've found a new planet to explore," Cyndi touched the computer terminal with her fingers wishing it was Paul's face she was touching. "To say I miss you and the kids is an understatement."

"They miss you too, but this is a great opportunity for you. Before you know you're going to get that second pip and be stuck at a desk just like me." Paul suggested to her with a big grin on his face, he knew that most admirals didn't explore as much but she was still a one star. So she had a little more flexibility in that aspect. "I do miss the old days of exploration so, make sure you take some pictures for me."

"You know I'll send pictures and I'll send you a copy of my report as well. But as for the second pip I'm in no hurry to get another promotion. I'm not ready to sit behind a desk," Cyndi said.

I know you're not, there are times I still envy you and this is one of them." Paul said with big loving grin on his face.

"You can always leave the Danvers in the hands of your XO and join me," Cyndi replied. "Being a commodore does have it's perks and I do still get to explore."

"You know Starfleet needs me." Paul said with a big grin. Deep down he knew he needed them as well, even though he was not going to admit that over subspace.

"Command needs us both, Cyndi said "Olvera made the right call by putting you in command of that star base. Your where you need to be, I just wish it was here at my side. We've always made this work, I just miss you and the kids so much. Next time I pull in for supplies I have plans for you." she grinned.

"I like the sound of that." Paul said with a big grin on his face. He knew that his wife's plan were always beneficial to the both of them.

"Give you something to think about, On the planet there are several houses to rent, Bring the kids down when I pull in again, I'll cook dinner and not replicate it, then when the kids go to bed we'll relax in a hot tub and let the night go from there," Cyndi replied "Candles in the bedroom."

"You know how to keep my spark going baby, I should probably let you get back to work though." Paul said with the big grin on his face, thinking about the two of them having a wonderful time down on the planet side.

"As much as I hate to agree with you, I do have a ship who needs me. I just don't want to close this communication," Cyndi said smiling at her husband. "We've been through a lot in the past seventeen years and we have more memories to make. Remember how much I love you."

"Then I'll let you get to it." Paul said to her with a big grin on his face then he closed out the channel. The scene starts to fade away.

Once the screen faded Cyndi brushed away a few tears that had fallen. She missed Paul and the kids terribly but they each had their own assignments to handle.
