WHO: Amanda Grayson & James T. Kirk
WHAT: Amanda happens across someone that she simply can't ignore.
WHEN: Mid-afternoon
WHERE: The streets of Colligo
RATING: PG
STATUS: In Progress
All right, maybe she knew that she'd end up giving her son a heart attack if she kept doing this especially if she kept doing it in these circumstances, but the best course of action that Amanda could figure on was simply...not to tell him. Perhaps not the most honest course of action, but she couldn't stay locked up in her room all of the time nor could he accompany her every single occasion that she wished to leave her room. So the best plan for both of them was that Spock merely never find out that she had left.
It wasn't easy. Being on the same floor in the same building made it far too possible for them to run into each other in the hallway (something that she would have relished on any other occasion), and she had to get out of the building without being seen. She had waited until late in the day, making sure that lunchtime was well past, but that it was long before dinner when she poked her head out the front door of her apartment. George had already gone out, and she found the hallway thankfully vacant. Beating a hasty retreat to the first floor, Amanda made her way calmly out the front door and down towards the shopping district. Once she found herself well clear of the buildings, Amanda breathed a sigh of relief. That was one task down. Now, the other.
She had been craving chocolate for the last two days. It was a ridiculous desire considering the circumstances, but in the end, these things have to be satisfied somehow. She'd almost made it to the shop front when a familiar profile stopped her dead in her tracks, causing her to inch quietly to the side, hoping not to be spotted, until catching the profile full on helped her to relax. It wasn't George.
It was just Jim, George's son and the Captain to her son's First Officer. The information that she had was scarce, and the interaction that she'd had with him on the board brief, but this all served simply to make her more curious. Stepping out of the corner that she had inched toward to hide, Amanda strode over to him with a purpose in her every step, raising a hand to catch him attention with a wave.
