"Breaking free, Pt. II"

Setting: Starfleet Academy Main Campus; San Francisco, California, EARTH
Logan stepped inside her quarters and plopped down on her bed. She
closed her eyes and leaned her head on her pillow. Exhausted from final exams, Logan still couldn't believe that she only had two more years of training and she will be able to serve on a starship. Just as she was about to fall asleep, a sound came that made her open her eyes.
She rolled onto her side, facing the door. "Enter," she beckoned. The
doors opened, and in stepped Marshae, who quickly pulled up a chair next to
Logan's bed. "Okay, you better be coming with me to the party tonight."
Logan looked at her, but then grabbed her pillow and placed it on top
of her head. She let out a groan. Marshae rolled her eyes and ripped the
pillow off her head.
"Logan. You have been attending Starfleet Academy for three years now.
And how many parties have you gone to?"
Logan sat up against the wall. "None."
Marshae pulled Logan out of her bed and stood her up next to the closet. "This
is why you are coming tonight. It is the end of exams and you need to meet some guys and relax. All you do is study, study, study."
Logan leaned her body against the wall, folded her arms across her chest and whined, "Fine. Just fu ye since you pretty much are my only friend here."
"That's my girl. Now, let's see if you have anything to show off those
nice curves with."
Logan rolled her eyes.

Wearing a short tartan sundress, Logan hesitantly stepped into the
crowded lounge. Just as she was about to turn around and go back to her
quarters, Marshae grabbed Logan's hand and dragged her over to where a group of Marshae's male friends were gathered. Logan started chewing her lower lip in nervousness. She never thought of herself as attractive because Marshae was always the apple of the male cadets' eyes.
Marshae tapped one of the boys' shoulders. He turned around and
immediately recognized who it was.
"Hey Marshae! I'm glad you came." The boy looked next to her and saw Logan.
Logan looked up from staring at her shoes and met the boy's eyes. They were a
lovely shade of powder blue, and were the brightest eyes she had ever seen. She smiled shyly at him.
The boy stuck out his hand towards her. "You must be Logan. I'm Nathan. She's told me so much about you."
Logan shook his hand in return, but still stared at his eyes. How she loved
those eyes. So far the party was worth going to.
Marshae noticed the slight attraction and giggled. "Why don't you two get acquainted somewhere a little more.quiet." Logan gave her a dirty look, but soon didn't mind the comment. She walked to the outside patio area next to the recreational pool with Nathan. She just couldn't take her eyes off of his.

Logan slipped on a pair of old fashioned denim pants and plain white shirt. It
was the perfect summer day to go out for a nice walk. As she was slipping on
her shoes, Logan's screen beeped. The face of a blonde hair, blue eyed young
man popped up. =/\= Sleep well, Logan? =/\=
Logan walked over and leaned on the table where the screen was, "Aye, laddie.
All because of ye, Nathan."
Nathan chuckled. =/\= Would you like to join me for breakfast and a nice walk around the park while we're at it? Meet me at the lounge at 0900 hours. =/\=
"Ah shall see ye then." The Starfleet Academy Logo popped up on the screen.
Logan smiled and put on her other shoe and looked at her mirror. Her auburn hair was flipped out perfectly, matching her teal eyes. She hardly wore make-up because her mother had died when she was so young, so she was never taught about how to apply it. And besides, she didn't really need it.
Checking to make sure she had everything, Logan walked towards her door.
"Lights off," she commanded. She then stepped out of the door and the door
closed behind her.
