Fred grinned. "You're pretty adorable yourself," she said before leaning over to kiss him. When she heard the knock on the door, she quickly pulled back and looked at Luka. Fred brightly blushed and nodded her head. "Thanks, Luka." She then looked at Carson and back at Luka. "Have you ate yet? We have plenty of food."
Clearing his throat, Luka rubbed the back of his neck and looked at him. "Oh, um, I'm actually going to meet Doctor Hayes for lunch. We have a few things to discuss regarding his department," he said before giving them both a smile. "Maybe some other time. I haven't been on a picnic for a while."
"Whenever you want," Fred said before Luka left. After he was gone, Fred reached up and grabbed her laptop. She looked through her messages, stopping when she came to the one from John. "They want us to go to a temple with them. They believe the people missing from the Gemini outpost are there and they need doctors and people with the ATA gene."
She handed the laptop to Carson so he could read the message, too. As he did, Tabby crawled into Fred lap and cuddled close, and closed her eyes. The little girl was obviously tired so Fred softly hummed to her while rocking her.
