Apparently, the liquor that Mara could get her hands on from her culture was worse than the stuff they were secretly brewing in Engineering. This was a little note she would file away for later because she might need the kind of moonshine that Ju needed in order to sleep well until Damian came back. It wasn’t about sleeping alone it was about sleeping with worry. She and Damian hadn’t shared a bed yet but they spent a lot of their free time together which was what was sorely lacking at this moment. That and her worry and concern for him. Their relationship was still so new so she didn’t know exactly what was going on and she didn’t have the status to ask. Ju also didn’t feel comfortable enough asking the Captain because she had assured Crawford she would not let her duty fail because of her relationship and Crawford had just told her about how hard it was going to be to date the first officer.
“Mmmm, but the serial sparkler is likely in a history book at this point. You can’t puke sparkles and not become infamous somehow,” Ju grinned at her friend. Thankful so much for Mara pulling her out of her Quarters and forcing her to come and socialize. She would have stayed in her room just fine eating gummy bears and wallowing in self pity.
Mara’s stomach let out a grumble causing the woman to head off to find food and drinks. Ju opened the bag of gummy bears and picked out four red ones tossing them in her mouth and murdering them with a crunch of her teeth. She chewed slowly watching the people in the room around her. There was a guy across the lounge sitting with another male getting their drink on who shot her a little wink. Ju didn’t respond but instead she just turned back to her bag of bears and picked out another few to eat while she waited for Mara to return.
Ju was not flaky or flighty, she wouldn’t just go and replace Damian. It wasn’t like she was with Damian for his rank but instead for his personality and the way he made her feel like she was the only person in the room when they were together. Ju was also new and she knew a lot of people probably wanted to get to know her but right now she didn’t want to get to know anyone else except have fun with Mara.
Mara’s laugh had Ju and others looking over at her leaning against the bar ordering them food and drink. Ju rose her brow but then turned back and took another couple of bears out before eating them and digging around in the bag to find the blue bears which were her favorite.
Her friend returned stating food and drink were on the way and then sat back down across from Ju. She asked about her family and Ju smiled lovingly. “Yeah, two brothers. Jun Ho is the oldest and he’s a doctor. He works for one of the larger hospitals in Seoul and is getting married soon. Su Jin is the middle child, he was always much quieter he is a Vet he always preferred animals to people anyway. Then there’s me and you kind of know where I’m at. We grew up in Korea on Earth and both of them are still there.” She chuckled.
“What about you? Do you have family? I want to know more about you too.”
