Candles, Drinks, and Dinner, oh my! pt.1

Aliana was massaging her face while looking in her mirror. She stopped and shook her very choppy hair. "Huh... I think that haircut actually made it more droopy...." She grinned and turned around, exiting her room and then her quarters to head to LeMorte's.

 

The previous hour was interesting to say the very least..the impromptu Red alert drill had found Le Morte in the shower as the klaxxons sounded. The grabbing of a wrap,contacting the Gamma sci team to go to full alert status and the ensuing trip to the main science lab was not enough...No the stares he had gotten when he showed up and on the way back to quarters were very interesting indeed.

 

Aliana had walked up to LeMorte's quarters. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, designed for dancing and that floated, and a tank-top like shirt that practically blended into the skirt, both in deep reds, and straightened them before buzzing his door.

 

Barely having had time to return to quarters resume the shower,and getting dressed for his dinner guest was a bit hurried indeed. The quick assembelage of his part of the dinner was easy...the other part of the food preperation for his guest...was something altogether different...no replication, just simple cooking, the door chimed..!

 

Aliana smoothed the piece of hair that kept swinging in her face as she waited. "Huh. I wonder if he is here," she said, chiming the door again.

 

Taking the last pot off the cooking surface,and assuring the oven dish was well on the way to being cooked, Le Morte turned and calmly headed to the door...pressing the button the door swooshed open,standing there was Aliana...her looks were different in civilian clothing,actually quite becoming for a change,a breath of fresh air if you will."Please come in"..smiling.

 

Aliana grinned. "Hi," she said, walking inside. "Nice quarters... definetly less cluttered then mine," she said jokingly.

 

Looking over the front room..he turned and stated "computer" increase ambient lighting to shade below normal..."Aliana" I apologize for the darkness...it suits my vision better." Grinning he turned and motioned to the main table. "I hope you are hungry" he spoke as he led the way to the table..set replete with his best tableware and candles.

 

"I almost always am," she said, her tone joking. She sat down. "These are really nice candles... what kind are they?"

 

Looking up at the candles..and back to Aliana.."They are just some fragrance candles I picked up on Risa a while back while on leave before being assigned here. I think they are called frakencense...or something akin to that".

 

"Really? Wow," she said looking impressed. "I used to have dozens of these, I used them all though. They were very popular on 21st century earth..."

 

"I see ..well we cannot have that",pointing to a shelf in the corner.."please help yourself to an assortment of the ones I have...please, I bought a large quanity at an auction. I literally have cases of them. While you do that,I'll check on the rest of dinner ..pick some music as well on the disc station if you like.

 

Aliana looked even more impressed. "What area of Risa did you find them on," she asked, examining them, before going over to the music. "Do you have a musical preference?"

 

Turning for a moment.." I found the candles at an auction in the traders district...a lot of good merchandise comes and goes through there...you might try it when you get the oppurtunity,as for the music...you are my guest,up to you.

 

Aliana chuckled. "Well, I mostly listen to rock in roll. Do you have any Dengue Fever?"

 

Working away in the food area..and placing the main meat on the platter, He casually said "There is a full list on the viewer interface..see what I have,you might like the assortment..many classic's including rock-n-roll it used to be referred to.

 

Aliana grinned and began to scroll through. "No Dengue Fever, but plenty of Grace Jones. I admire your taste," she said, putting on Art Groupie.

 

Entering the room with the plattered food,along with a large salad bowl ...and selection of dressings.."I thank you"..it has been a collection of music from over the cen...pausing ,err the years. placing the food down and reaching for the chilled bottle of wine ,opening the bottle with a small "pop" as the corkscrew released the aroma of the wine. Aliana...I took the liberty of choosing a proper wine for the table and dinner if that is ok with you?.

 

"It is quite alright. What type is it?"

 

"A complimenting red wine from the vineyards of Bordeaux France...from a long time ago on Terra,or Earth if you will. Taking a tall long stemmed glass and pouring it for her.." I think you may approve" he offered the glass to her as he finished setting the table.

 

"I think I will at that," she said, taking it and sipping the wine. "mmmm. Very good."

 

Taking a glass and pouring from another bottle he filled his...and joined her in the front room. "To an excellent dinner then,and thank you for being my very first guest,and one so lovely" He simply raised his glass and touched hers.

 

She smiled at him. "Thank you for cooking me dinner. Normally I have replicated, for as I said before, I am not a very talented cook."

 

Smiling he looked at her," I am pleased to do so, it is not often that I have guest for dinner,or any other feeding time for that matter...you know how awkward it can be for others to observe me feeding...again I thank you for your understanding...shall we?"

 

She grinned again, sipping the wine once more and savoring the taste in her mouth. "Thank you," she said, walking back to the table.
