ON:
Cyndi sent a message to the ship inviting the rest of the crew down to the Palace for dancing should they want to join them.
Walking into the garden Cyndi looked to the sky, the sun was getting low in the sky. Paul walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist hugging her "I wish they'd have filled me in on all of this."
"As do I, you struggled to keep the fact your a royal away from your command and now the crew knows" Paul said
"It's okay, I'm still the commanding officer of that ship up there and the first one who refers to me as Princess will regret it" Cyndi commented "Let's go into the ballroom, you owe me a dance."
Thoros looked to his dance partner Kristian Long and smiled, " Take me dancing."
Smiling Kristian took his hand and led the way to the dance floor "I enjoy dancing, I don't get to do it enough."
" I totally enjoy the dance. On the Hamilton the Captain insisted on all of his senior officers waltzing." Thoros replied.
"My parents insisted my brother and I learn as did my aunt and uncle," Kristian replied
T’Mia offered Greg a smile as they sat together. “Would you like to dance?”
“Sounds good wonderful, I’ll even promise not to step on your toes,” Greg replied with a grin as he stood up offering his hand.
T’Mia smiled. “Sounds wonderful to me! I’ll warm you now I’m not used to dancing, especially with a partner.”
James had just finished his drink as he watched several couples walk onto the dance floor. Turning to Heather "Shall we show them how it's done Sweetheart" James asked as he stood and offered her his hand.
Heather smiled "Absolutely....hope they can keep up" she commented with a giggle. So the couple walked out onto the floor and James took Heather in his arms as they danced around the dance floor.
"Shall my love?" Paul asked
"Let's," Cyndi said wrapping her arms around her husband's neck as they twirled and danced around the dance floor, leaning in she kissed him and laid her head on his shoulder.
Moving onto the floor T’Mia grinned as she and Greg started off a little slow until they finally got into the swing of dancing together.
Drew walked over to his daughter and lightly tapped Paul on the shoulder "Mind if I dance with my daughter?"
"Of course not sir," Paul said handing his wife's hand to her father. Paul walked over to where Tara stood and bowed low to her, standing "May I have this dance?"
Smiling Tara nodded and accepted Paul's arm and walked onto the dance floor, just as the music tempo picked up into a lively Polka style "Shall we show them how this is done?"
"Let's," Paul grinned as he and Tara danced to the Polka.
Hearing the up tempo music start James looked at Heather "You wanna give a go" he asked. "No lets sit this one out....I'm not a fan of the Polka" so the couple returned to their seats to have a drink. Heather looked up to see Lieutenant JG Dunjen enter the room dressed in a rather nice navy blue cocktail dress with lots of sparkles. Heather motioned for her to come over next to them since she was so new to the Ship. "Please join us" Heather said with a smile.
Nix walked over to the table and smiled "Good evening, how are you" she asked then sat next to Heather not wanting to make her Husband uncomfortable.
"We're good and may I say you look quite lovely this evening" Heather replied. "Thank you and so do you" Nix commented "I'm not staying long but thought I should make an appearance."
The music returned to a slower beat when Heather said "Well you need to dance at least one dance before you leave" then turning to James "Why don't you dance with Nix." he looked over at Nix and smiled "Would you care to dance." Nix smiled "Yes, I'd love to."
James offered her his hand as they walked out onto the dance floor and began to dance. "James you're a very good dancer...Heather is a very lucky girl" Nix commented. "Thank you...I'm sure she'd agree with you" he replied with a smile.
After the music stopped "Thank you James that was very nice of you" she said. "You're welcome but the pleasure was all mine" he replied as the two returned to the table and sat.
"You're Husband is a very good dancer" Nix commented. "Yes he is " Heather replied. After a little while of conversation Nix decided it was time to leave and left the couple to their night of enjoyment.

Lt Yova enjoyed the music but he quickly darted out the door to the first arriving shuttle. 2nd Lt Murdoch Thirman had taken the honor of signing up for ferrying duty back to the ship for those not using the transporter .
" Mr Thirman take me back to the ship." Yova said.
'" Will do sir when two others get here" the 2nd Lieutenant replied .
Alesha had seen Thirman head out of the Palace and walked out to find him near one of the Amandora's shuttles "Thirman are you leaving?"
" Just playing courier to the crew going back to the ship Ma'am. I have 3 seats on this one." Thirman replied.
"I was hoping you'd want to dance with me," Alesha said .
Thirmon was dressed in his flight suit but jumped out of the craft.
" Sorry Lieutenant a dance with the lady trumps you going back. Right this way my lady," Thirman responded. Odac sighed as he had hoped to hurry back to Ellie
Alesha took his hand and walked back into the Palace and into the ballroom, several couples were on the dance floor the tempo had just picked up again to a disco style beat
" Take it take it to the floor Lieutenant," Thirman joked.
Alesha led the way onto the dance floor and turned to Thirman "I hope you can keep up with me," It didn't take her long to get into the tempo of the dance.
Tara had ended her dance with Cyndi's father and a respectful bow after the dance she thanked him.
Arriving down on the surface Ellie was surprised to be invited down for dancing as she thought it was senior officers only. Arriving she looked around for Yova before finally seeing him. “Yova!” She waved a big smile on her face.
Yova jumped out of the shuttle the moment he saw Ellie arrive. Running over to her he yelled," Ellie?"
Yova rushed up to her and couldnt help but embrace his new bride
" A sight for sore eyes to see. "
Ellie grinned. "Well it seems the rest of us are allowed to attend now that dinner is over, so how's about you take me dancing?"
Yova spinned Ellie around and then led her back into the palace . Looking all around he couldn't stop smiling.
" This room is where the voice if the Prophets showed me we were having a baby. This is wild."
Ellie grinned. "It most certainly is!" she took his hand holding it gently. "Let's go and enjoy ourselves, dance the night away and when we get home we can try for that baby."
James and Heather had enjoyed their time at the Palace but were getting ready to depart and go home. Walking up to Cyndi "Commodore thank you and your Parents for a lovely evening....it was most enjoyable" Heather commented with a big smile "It's been a long day so we're going to return to the Ship." The couple walked outside and James tapped his Comm "Transporter Room two to return to the Ship." Momentarily the couple were back home.
