Doc had a light smile on his face as he escorted Isa to the dance floor. His left hand supported her while his right held her left hand. He could feel her warmth. It was almost immediately that he realized that for all of his talents, dancing wasn't one of them. Still, they managed to dance for a few minutes at least while they consistently tried fixing their missteps and such but while they did. There were some smiles between them and a chuckle with each misstep made but still, it was fun to try.
As they danced, Doc used the moment to inobviously feel her skin. It was tight still and fresh. He knew what rejuvenated skin felt like. He was convinced at this point that Isa was formerly Sonja...and he was fine with it. More than fine. He still said nothing as he just enjoyed her company. After a few minutes and a few more missteps, he made a motion with his head towards the entryway. "Let us get out of here."
Heading out, they walked side by side down a corridor of Med Force One with his hands behind his back. He just looked at her as they slowly walked. She was elegant and beautiful but that wasn't entirely what was on his mind.
"It is getting crowded there," he said. He waited until there was no one around them either from an opening door or just in passing.
"Dr. Rikkert did a fantastic job," he said. "Your skin is still tight but it feels as if it is settling on you. That will get better in the next day or so."
A couple of doctors passed discussing a case together. They nodded to the passing couple as Doc nodded to them. He looked over his shoulder to make sure they were passed.
"Tomorrow morning I would like you to report to my office here on Med Force One so that we can complete your new paperwork and information as chief of mental health."
They slowly walked as they passed another someone who worked on ship. Again, he made sure they were clear.
He then asked softly, "So how are you, Admete? It has been a stretch for you as well."
