Holodeck 3

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

The kiss upon his cheek felt sweet but a part of was dissapointed and happy at the same time. Returning the hug placing his head upon her's "Very, Makoto-chan." A warm smile emerged taking in the comfort of this closeness. Thoughts of their journey into the cold dark abyss of space took form, a friend or a companion would be a great light and warmth for the hard times to come.

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

She stood there for a moment, just enjoying the comfort of the closeness, hearing his heartbeat and his breathing near her neck. After a few minutes she spoke, "Any programs you'd like to run?" she asked, "If not, I have another we can try."

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

No, I have nothing" He couldn't think of any program for them to try. Them together was enough to satisfy the Ensign. "What do you have in mind?"

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

"I'll show you. Enterprise, load program Hikari-3." "On it, Lieutenant." "Thank you." she said as the background changed to the interior of a massage parlor type place, no holograms present, and her outfit changed to be a dark leather pair of pants, with matching boots, and a black top that conformed to her profile, but left her back open and shoulders bare. "Have you ever had a back massage before, Ensign?, or given one?" she asked, sitting down on the flat surface and looking up at him inquisitively.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

His froze his eyes in disbelieve for almost a second. He gulped down nothing but saliva as his mind tried to from a sentence. His outfit remained the same. "No," he stuttered as he looked upon the Lieutenant's gaze upon himself. "Can't say I have ever given or received one." His face red with embarrassment.

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

She grinned at him before standing up right next to him. "you really need to relax." she said, putting her arms around his neck for a moment while giving him a pouting look before she stepped back. "And I know just the thing. If you'll remove your shirt and lay down on this surface here, I will massage your back neck and shoulders." she said.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

"T.. take off my shirt?" he said as his composure barely held but he couldn't resist that pout, it instantly made him comply with her request. He slowly began to unbutton his dress shirt, his hands shaking nervously and his face shy as ever as he did. With what was barely in control inside the Ensign's head agreed with this proposition. A massage would do wonders for him if only his logical side could set up a meeting with his emotional one. He finished removing the article with a little help and began to lay upon the surface the Lieutenant mentioned.

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

She giggled as he did that, "you're cute when you're shy, you know." she said as he laid down face first on the surface, before standing on the left side of the surface, and with gentleness she went to work on his lower back, massaging it, feeling every little detail of his skin as her fingers danced along it, and she continued along the small of his back.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

He could feel her fingers and hands work upon his tense muscles. This feelings of nervousness and shyness was easily washed away in a sea of Paradise. "Mmhmm, this feels amazing." His words of pleasure oozing out of his lips. The treatment only just begun and already the effects were taking place.

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

She smiled, her fingers exploring his back as she continued the massage, working her way to his upper back now, being very detailed in the massage, taking a step to the left as she started on his upper back, being in his peripheral vision. "Feeling better?" she asked.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

"Yeah, a lot better." He said as his worries left him. His body felt rejuvenated. "You must be an expert at this craft. How long have you done this for?" As Hikari began to work on his upper body his eyes began to feel heavy, the massage really is relieving the Ensign as the sensation of sleep almost overtook him. He held on though.

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

"I haven't done this for many people. As far as my knowledge of the craft, let's just say I knew a friend who knew a friend who knew a good massage therapist." she said with a smile as her fingers danced along his upper back to his shoulders.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

He laughed at Hikari's explanation of her skills. "A friend of a friend, huh?" that always seems to get him. "I am honored to be on of few to experience your massage." He said as she began to work on his shoulders. "Thanks."

[Lt. Hikari Makoto]

"oh you're welcome." she said, massaging his shoulders and the sides of his neck, working out the tension.

OOC: Sorry for the confusion I edited this right before you posted.

[Lt Andrew Figueroa]

With the the massage clearing his mind an idea came to him. "If you like I have a program I have in mind. It's one of my favorites."
