Amila watched as Morad finished his turn at darts and walked back over to the table. "Last round!" Ameen announced as he walked over and stood next to them.
Last Round. Amila hoped that the game ending didn't mean that the first officer would be leaving soon after. She hadn't really had a chance to talk to him much, and now that the alcohol was kicking in, she was feeling a little more emboldened. She just had to think of something to say that wasn't work related, awkward, or too totally obvious. While she was thinking about what to say, Ameen mentioned that the Captain had arrived.
"Captain Fields is here. Should we ask her to join us?" Ameen looked at his colleagues as he asked.
Amila turned to look to see what Ameen was talking about, and spotted Captain Fields in a booth by herself with a PADD. While Amila was checking the situation out she was surprised to hear Keir be the one to mention that one of them should go over given Keir's earlier shyness. There was always the concern that the Captain would think it was inappropriate to fraternize with them. But if she didn't think that. If Captain Fields accepted their invitation and came over, it would certainly be a night to remember.
Amila turned back to the group and nodded in the affirmative. "Yeah, we should," she said as she stood up from the table. Amila lifted her empty glass. "If the server comes back can someone order me another?" She then winked at Ameen before turning to Keir and tapping hir on the back.
"Come with me," Amila said to Keir making a subtle gesture with head towards where the Captain was sitting.
Amila felt a lot more confident approaching the Captain with Keir by her side, particularly since Keir also happened to be a department head. Not that it necessarily mattered in terms of how she got along with Keir, but it did help seem to bridge the gap between junior officers and command at this particular impromptu gathering.
As they approached the Captain's booth Amila shot Keir a quick glance before speaking. "Excuse me, Captain Fields. I apologize if I'm disrupting your reading. We just thought you might like to join us. The first darts game is just about over, and it's pretty close between Commander Ameen and Lieutenant Keti. Could be anyone's game still." Amila waited for the Captain's response with some nervousness over how she might reply.
