kitmerlot_1213This is a 200 word Star Trek drabble for the Weekend Challenge at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
1_million_words ENJOY!!
As the CMO. Leonard McCoy knew that hanging out in the Enterprise’s newly constructed Ten Forward lounge would not only bring the crew much needed relaxation but also help improve their morale and bring a sense of community and camaraderie.
It just hadn’t occurred to him that the bar would also be a source of extreme entertainment.
Ten Forward was the place to be with everyone mingling, enlisted and officers alike, so there were quite a few love connections and even more illicit hook ups.
McCoy was currently sipping an excellent glass of bourbon when his best friend and captain slipped onto the stool next to him.
Jim waited until he was served his own whiskey before he ventured a sideways look at Bones.
“Anything new?”
McCoy quirked a smile before he replied. “Finnegan is attempting to impress Uhura with his dart-throwing ability.” He took another sip of his bourbon before he continued. “She’s pretending to not notice.”
Jim threw a glance over his shoulder. “Maybe she doesn’t actually realize…”
Just then Uhura let out a cheer when Finnegan managed a bull’s eye. They exchanged amused grins, McCoy finishing Jim’s sentence. “She’s a woman. She always knew he was interested.”
