Ensign Elizabeth Yamaguchi smiled as she went into Nalla's temporary bedroom, she peered into the bedroom as a smile graced her lips. "Hey Nalla..." she greeted the other woman even though Nalla was asleep.

Nalla was still in a semi-restless cycle, and thus did not hear

Elizabeth wasn't prepared for Nalla touching her as she shifted her position in her sleep, they came into contact as Elizabeth felt a wave of hormones surge within her. "Uhh.." and with that she stood up and went out the door. Elizabeth shook her head as if she tried to clear it.

"Whats the matter with you?" Jake inquired of his eldest as Kameron smiled as he regarded his wife. "You ready for breakfast.?"

"Yeah... Umm... minor issue has come up Dad.... you gonna be alright... for the next several hours.." Elizabeth turned to her husband. "We should go home... Nalla touched me." she explained.

Kameron Yamaguchi raised an eyebrow. "Okay...fair enough.."

Jake facepalmed as the doorbell beeped, he answered the door as he found himself face to face with Phoenix. "Phoenix whats up?"

"Thought I'd come by an' see tha little ones before I hopped up to the pod for CAP assignment briefing," Phoenix spoke with a big grin, then sobered a bit as she remembered there was a guest here the night before. "Things settelin' down for you guys?"

Jake nodded. "The twins are still in bed... as is their mother.. Torilla had to take a shower with Nalla last night and she's.... well she's wrecked." he watched as Elizabeth took her own husbands hand and she led him out the door. "Hey Colonel... 'scuse us... I need to deal with something."

Jake smiled. "Come on in Phoenix.."

"...Those two spend lots of time with each other," Phoenix noted with a chuckle and then entered the room. Quiet, so as not to wake the babes of the adults still sleeping.

"Siaxx mentioned an incident last night here... Nalla didn' like... cause an orgy again, did she?" Phoenix asked with concern.

"No..." Jake admitted as he went over to the replicator. "She did however wear down Torilla's defenses and zapped my wife with the equivalent of viagra super strength by a hundred times. She was up most of the night with me.... and my nuts hurt." Jake sighed. "But you didn't come over to hear me complain..." as he led Phoenix over to the twins bedroom, he opened the door and sure enough, the twins were still asleep.

"Help yourself to the replicator... I'm going to wake them up in a few minutes then check on the sleeping zombie that passes for my wife... How does anyone get anything done on this ship.... I simply must ask.."

"I think Alpha Shift are the only ones that do," Phoenix snickered lightly, then went over to the replicator to make breakfast for the entire clan. "Baldy gonna eat with the group, or should I make a tray ta bring to her?"

Jake paused. "I'll wake her too... I don't want people sleeping all day... besides I'm not running a hotel." he commented as he watched Phoenix prepare breakfast for everyone, he also wasn't about to complain or question it. "Let me go wake people up." and with that he went to the twins first.

He smiled as he gently wake Nix first and then Tressa. "Hey guys... its breakfast time."

Nix blinked his eyes open. "Mmmm..do I have to?"

Tressa felt and heard her brother moving around which had the effect of waking her too. "Daddy?....whats going on?"

"Its breakfast time." Jake responded with a smile. "You guys get to have out with Aunt Phoenix for a little while... after. you get dressed."

Nix cheered. "Yay!"

Phoenix smiled brightly when she heard their cheers. She missed them. They were not hers, which was the sad part. Not her blood, but they may as well have been, given the trouble she went through to give birth to them.

Phoenix placed the booster seats in the twins' chairs and then started to set the table. Whatever happened last night, Phoenix wanted to try and start the day off on a good note for everyone.

Jake watched as the twins came out of the bedroom, fully clothed as they went over to Phoenix, he then poked his head into the bedroom as he regarded his wife. "Hey..."

Torilla began slowly moving as her eyes blinked open. "Its Oh eight hundred already?" she asked.

"Yep... you asked me to wake you.."

"Yeah... I'll be right out.." Torilla sighed as she slipped out of the bed, wearing one of Jake's shirts. "Shoo... lemme get dressed.."

Jake smiled as he retreated out of the bedroom as he turned his attention back to Phoenix who was hanging out with the twins.

Phoenix had already set the table with big platters of pancakes, link sausages, and scrambled eggs. The twins had their child-proof sippy cups filled with orange juice and Phoenix was in the process of filling their plates and cutting up their food in bite sizes.

"Everthin' all right Jake?" Phoenix asked with concern while Nix and Tressa dueled each other happily with their child proof sporks.

"Yeah... I didn't sleep well.. " Jake responded as he watched his children duel each other, a smile gracing his face. "At least they seem happy.." he let out a soft sigh. "I'm going to go wake our guest." and with that he went over to the other remaining bedroom as he knocked on the door.

Then he opened the door. "Nalla... you awake?" he inquired gently. "Its Oh eight hundred."

"I am late for shift," Nalla announced more to herself as she got out of bed and looked for her duty clothes. She guess someone lent her their PJs overnight. "I apologise for taking this space last night, Admiral."

She felt around and sighed. She could not find her shades. Nalla would have to replicate some, given her slight sensitivity to light.

Jake plucke the shades from where they were on the floor. "Here you go Nalla." as he handed them to her. "Don't worry about it Nalla... You were having a rough night.."

"Thank you," Nalla replied in a not-so-Vulcan manner. Then immediately put them on. "I will return to my quarters after eating, Admiral."

"Jake.." he responded. "I'm not on duty Nalla, and I left my uniform behind on the Song of the East." he explained. "You don't need to call me Admiral all the time.."

"I do," Nalla countered as she rubbed her temples. She still had a headache, but it was manageable. "People born of privilege and people that worked hard for their status deserve the respect earned to them."

"I came to my command through chance and chance alone." Jake responded. "Through hard work.. I wasn't born to it.."

"But you earned it all the same," Nalla pointed out respectfully as she began to fold the bed and pack her teddy bear and blanket together. "I will always be Lady Furban to my people, despite my not liking the title. Because I was born into the family. You, Admiral, earned your title, which is a far harder thing to accomplish."

Jake regarded the smaller woman who reminded him of Rachael in more ways then one, also he kept his silence as he processed what she said to him. "Fair enough... in any case. breakfast is served... and your presence is requested at the table, when you are ready..." and with that, Jake took his leave of her. "M'lady." he added with a smile as he
closed the door behind him so Nalla could finish dressing in peace.

Jake came back to the table, Nix was busy chewing on a chunk of sausage while his sibling was sipping from her drink, he had no idea that Phoenix was motherhood material despite being told by various relatives that she was. "How you doin' Phoenix?" he inquired as he sat down. "This all looks great... I may have to hire you as my caterer." he paused. "If you ever get sick of being in Starfleet, come see me... I know a man who would be happy to offer you a job.."

"I can' retire Jake," Phoenix admitted with sadness more than bitterness. "My draft clause says I'm in tha fleet or I'm in jail. So my retirement is only in the form of dyin' in my fighter."

Jake raised an eyebrow as he regarded Phoenix, a dark look in his eye. "Is that so?" he said softly. "I will... deal with that.... because that legislation deserves to be buried... in the past."
