Trying to relax

Mission: Shoreleave
Location: Risa
Timeline: Week 2 of shoreleave

On a well shaded sun lounger Taliserra lay reading from a Padd as people; some she recognised from her crew others she didn't frolicked around the large pool area. Not quite ready to lay there in just a swim suit she wore a knee length skirt and a light blouse.

Lounging under the underneath to sun in a chair near the pool area was Lieutenant JG Kyle Samson, one of the Wolff's security officer's and Lieutenant Commander Acevedo's personally tasked officers he sent down during Taliserra's shoreleave to keep an eye on her.

Captain Watch thought Samson as a sweet looking Bolian babe in a bikini walked over with a tray of drinks handing him the Samarian Sunset he had asked for. He was there to enjoy himself but Ty had specifically asked him to stay close to the Captain at all times.

For Kyle Samson this meant he needed to blend in with everyone else but conviently place himself in the Captain's proximity. He saw the Captain make eye contact with him from across the pool area and thought it best to just wave at her acknowledging that he noticed her and hope she hadn't made him as her protection detail.

The same Bolian woman continued around the pool till she reached Taliserra and bent down to place the tall glass of springwine on the table beside her lounger.

"Thank you." Taliserra said smiling at her. The bald blue skinned woman smiled back before heading back to the bar.

Sampson watched as a shimmering occurred near the Captain. He immediately reached for a phaser that was not there of course. Nevertheless, he sprung to his feet undoubtedly drawing attention to himself. "Captain!" he exclaimed.

The security officer was quick to rush to Taliserra. The shimmering area was small and something began to materialize. Soon, enough features were discernable that Kyle let out a heavy sigh of relief. "Sorry...I wasn't expecting...enjoy your shore leave ma'am" he said awkwardly.

Relieved that it was not a hostile attack or an explosive device. Though now there was a fertility statue, a horga'hn near the Captain.

"So you are keeping an eye on me Kyle." Taliserra said quite surprised at the mans sudden dash towards her that had drawn the gaze of many of the other poolside guests, she hadn't yet noticed the horga'hn now sitting on the table beside her.

"Captain," Kyle gathered his thoughts before continuing. "I am here enjoying shoreleave just like you or any other member of the crew" he stated. "Security is just who I am. You can take me to Risa, but I'm still going to rush in like a fool to protect you."

He smiled. "Though it looks like my quick reflexes and phantom phaser are not the sort of protection you need" added Kyle with a nod towards the stature. "Seeking some jamaharon may do you some good."

Taliserra looked to where Kyle was motioning to and noticed the statue. "That wasn't.. where did that come from?"

Kyle looked at the statue and noticed something around the neck. It had a note of sorts. He approached to inspect it. "Hmm" he said and looked at Taliserra. "It's written in Halanan. I think it's addressed to you. I'd need a tricorder to translate it...not exactly a language I know, but I do recognize this name" he said taking the note off and handing it over.

Dr. El-Azar Kyle's eyes fell upon Taliserra. "The Counselor we had?"

"That...." Taliserra began to say something she shouldn't in front of a junior officer but caught herself. "is the second time he's sent me a message like this."

"Persistent that one is," Kyle said shaking his head. "I much prefer Counsellor Wyse. She's more subdued in her approach. The last time I had a session with Dr. El-Azar, he was placing hot stones on my back."

"He was definitely more forceful than you would expect." Taliserra decided against telling Kyle of the time Deepak had transported her from her sofa to a room on starbase 54 for a massage. She picked up the horga'hn and offered it to Kyle. "Please take this and... dispose of it appropriately."

Kyle smirked. "You know if they had let me bring a phaser I'd shoot it until it was vaporized" he stated. "I can definitely dispose of it though. I saw a lonely looking Vulcan sulking. I'll regift it to him."

"Please do, and then go enjoy yourself, I may not enjoy myself knowing someone is keeping an eye on me." Taliserra said giving him a look that suggested nicely that he leave her be.

Kyle nodded. "Can you make that an order? It was suggested I stay close enough to you in case something happened. "

Taliserra smiled slightly. "Then it's an order Lieutenant, go relax and enjoy some time off. You might not get another chance."

Kyle grabbed the statue. "Aye Captain, I stand relieved of my chaperone duties" he teased.

As Kyle began to walk off Taliserra grabbed her springwine and took a long drink before taking up her Padd again and resuming reading.
