Mission: All this has happened before...
Timeline: Before the Senior Staff meeting

Nina looked out the view port, dressed in her normal grey tank top with black athletic shorts. She still felt at fault for what happened on the Bethesda. As the Chief Intelligence Officer, she should have been better informed. Her mind also went to Yarin. She felt an attraction to him, and at the moment, his company felt better than being in her quarters alone. She stood and exited her quarters.

A minute later, she arrived at Yarin's Quarters and pressed the chime.

"Enter." Yarin said as he heard the door. he was sitting cross legged, all six eyes closed in contemplated meditation his color pallet was changing slowly, shifting from dark to light gray as he breathed and relaxed. One pair of arms raised near the side his head, the other outstretched in front of him.

Nina entered and was silent for a moment as she watched Yarin. "I'm sorry. Am I disturbing you?"

Yarin opened his eyes and stood up. "Not at all I was simply purging my mind of the accumulated foreign thoughts of the day."

"Ah. Having some trouble doing that myself tonight. So much crap on my mind. From the mission...and you. "

"Perhaps I can help, come sit with me." Yarin said as he took Nina's hand and led her to the bed. He grabbed her forearms with his lower arms and her head with his upper pair. Now slow your breathing, think calming thoughts let the stress of the day fade away.

Nina was no stranger to meditation techniques as her tribe on Earth had taught her but those were always done to seek guidance. Yarin's voice in her mind was a shock but she ignored it and did as he instructed. She kept seeing the Bethesda but she instead focused on the thoughts of Yarin. Which calmed her but also confused her. "I'm trying. Never have been good at meditating. "

It will come easier with practice. I recommend you start a regiment if you are still having problems. Now I am going to activate certain pressure points along your arms and head. I must admit to not being terribly familiar with human physiology so this will be a learning experience for both of us.

Nina exhaled slowly and closed her eyes . "Alright. Of course if you hit a nerve and cause pain, I'm kicking your butt, " she joked with a smile, knowing full well that Yarin was far stronger and faster than she was.

Yarin began the process, moving down her arms and head pressing lightly when it was necessary. These relax the nerves, this one relaxes the mind, and these relax the muscles.

The sensation she felt was wonderful and at the moment she felt her mind drift away from everything. "That feels wonderful, " she commented as she felt Yarin's fingers move down her arms, head and neck. "Where did you learn this?"

On Brakus 3, I was filling an ecological niche after a viral outbreak wiped out a native species. I had some time after prepping the vials so I went to the nearby community center and signed up.

"Ah, I see. What made you want to learn this technique? Do it for someone or out of curiosity?" Nina was finding it hard to focus on anything as she tilted her head back.

Out of curiosity mostly, it was the broadest technique with the most practical applications.

"Mmmm...you made a good choice," she commented. Her feelings began to guide her thoughts during the massage. She placed one hand on Yarin's left hand, leaned back and kissed him softly on the lips.

The kiss caught Yarin by surprise, a dozen thoughts entered his mind at that instant. Was he applying enough pressure? Should he stop the massage? What should he do with his hands? No for once he was not going to overthink things.

Nina slowly broke the kiss and looked at Yarin for a moment. She then removed her tank top, letting Yarin get a good look as she turned around and leaned against him, kissing once more.

Yarin moved into the kiss than pulled away quickly undressing himself.

Nina finished undressing as Yarin wrapped his arms around her, she kissed him passionately.

There was an audible beep "All senior staff report to the Conference room."

Nina sighed loudly. "You have got to be kidding me." she wanted to ignore the order, consequences be damned.

Yarin tapped his combadge, "On my way." To Nina he simply said, "To be continued."

"It better be," she said, grinning as she began to pull on her clothes.
