       herself not to break down and cry. " You think you can come here
       and expect me to welcome you like I used too Patrick, I know it
       was you who gave the order for my transfer and after everything

       Patrick felt the pain in her voice he knew this would be tough
       and would be hard then the words came though like glass cutting
       though flesh he sighed as he looked at her he stoked his hands
       though his hair.
       "Yes I had to do it at the time I knew you wouldn't Understand
       but the main reason was that I needed to protect you" Finished
       Brown then sighing "Because of me you would be suffering they
       learned about us and were punishing you for it I needed to do
       somthing to protect your career" Patrick solomly said

       She still refused to look at him thinking she was right that
       whatever came out of his mouth would be an excuse until she
       actually listened to what he had to say and turned round again.
       " You say I wouldn't of understood but how do you know that if
       you only spoke to me about it instead of letting me go off and
       hear it from your brother " she replied trying not to remember
       the last time she had seen him and what they had done. " You say
       you did it to protect me and my career but if you really loved
       me you could of given me the choice to leave so we could be
       together properly but its too late for that now and I would
       never ask you to give up your career ".

       Patrick satback in the sofa and closed his eyes hiding his pain
       with his eyes still closed he spoke
       "If you stayed they would have blocked any Promotions for you
       and you would never be allowed to take the classes you took and
       never be allowed to be a Department Head to force you away from
       Starfleet, My brother did that out of spite because of his
       issues and anger towards me" Patrick stated "you doubt I love
       you but it takes great Love to know that to let you have your
       dreams I have to not be selfish and give you up" Brown finished

       She watched him close his eyes and for a brief moment wanted to
       kiss him and just be wrapped in his arms again but she couldn't
       break her resolve not to let him get to her yet was finding it
       hard not too. She moved closer and reached out with her hand to
       touch his face " I told you Patrick I would of given up
       Starfleet so they couldn't do that to me and I understand with
       your brother, he was trying to save me from any more heartbreak
       but it didn't work " she replied " I cried for days and accepted
       that we were over, I just wish we had this conversation before
       now, things may of been different " she said closing the gap a
       little bit more as she gave in and kissed him. His lips felt
       like they always did and she stayed that way for a couple of
       minutes before pulling back " I know what you've sacrificed
       Patrick and you will always have a place in my heart".

       Charlotte didn't want the kiss to end but when it did and he
       looked at her with sad eyes, she smiled and reached out to him
       again, touching his face the way she always did " I know I will
       be eventually and you have nothing to apologize for, you rescued
       me when I needed to be and I still love you Patrick" she replied
       softly " Don't leave just yet " she added and kissed him once
       more this time more deeply wanting to say goodbye properly.

       Bridge
       Josh was sitting on the bridge looking over the mission
       guideline. He looked over at Commander Brown. "Commander with
       this timeline we have and from our current position we'll never
       be able to meet this goal. I want two shuttles dispatched. One
       will go in towards the outter edge of the patch, and turn around
       and begin it's scans. The second shuttle will be dropped half
       way and make it's way back to Ba'ku and remain in orbit until
       the Valor or another ship arrives. Then the Valor will go to the
       other edge of the patch and make it's way back."

       [Bridge]
       John stood at the main tactical console and listened to the
       Captain tell the XO the only way the scanning would work and
       John agreed. There was no way the Valor short of breaking in
       half could scan the whole Patch in the time given. John wondered
       who would be in the two shuttles and who would be on the ship,
       John knew either way that they would need to operate at Yellow
       Alert a suggestion he planned to give the Captain.

       John looked over at the Captian and nodded then he looked
       forward at the Viewscreen for a moment,
       "I agree it will be the best to to utilize the resources for
       this task that Starfleet want's us to fail at it seems" Finished

       Patrick looked at her with deep warm eyes looking into her very
       soul then took a small breath
       "Charlotte, know that even though we ca'nt be together I will
       always Love you and will alway's have you in my heart as if I
       ca'nt be with you I will live my life alone" Finished Patrick as
       he grabbed her in his Arms and Kissed her softly on her lips and
       then moved to her neck and continued to kiss her
