Reset

By, bevfanK

 

It was New Years Eve at Starfleet Command. They were having a huge celebration; the Enterprise E’s senior staff was invited. It was going to be a mask ball. At the beginning of the New Year everyone would remove his or her mask. It was going to be an interesting night, to say the least.

 

Will, Deanna, Geordi, Data, and Worf, all transported down to the surface, all of them in mask. The men in suits, and Deanna in a beautiful dress, they headed for the party. Beverly and Jean-luc would be joining them soon.

 

Beverly was all dressed up in her beautiful gown and mask, waiting for the Captain. She had been waiting for at least ten minutes when she decided she was just going to beam down without him.

 

As the evening progressed Beverly tried to find Jean-luc but since he was wearing a mask she didn’t know who he was. The band started to play a waltz and a man in mask came up to Beverly and offered his hand to her, not saying a word. Intrigued Beverly took his hand and he led her to the dance floor. They started dancing; all the while Beverly wondered where Jean-luc was.

 

Soon half the night was gone and they were still dancing. The masked man still had not said a word. Beverly was more curious then ever to find out who he was. She couldn’t find out much, with the mask and suit and gloves he was wearing. But when they danced it just felt right.

 

Just a minute before midnight, they stopped dancing. The masked man reached for his mask and removed.

 

 

There standing before her was Jean-luc Picard.

 

Beverly- “Jean-luc?!”

 

The people all around them were starting to count down.

Beverly removed her mask as well.

 

Jean-luc- “I want us to start over, hit the reset button.”

 

Beverly looked into his eyes and saw all the love they held.

A tear ran down her check and Jean-luc brushed it away with his thumb, looking into her eyes he saw the love there in hers.

 

Beverly- “I would like that.”

 

5…. 4…. 3…. 2…. 1….

 

In the beginning of the New Year they kissed, and nothing else seemed to exist.

 

The rest of the senior staff looked upon them and smiled.

 

It’s about time.

 

 

The End
