- A good while later -

Stepping onto the space station I look around curiously. Stretching my arms above my head with a groan as I look amongst the crowd. Scotty standing nervously by my side. Fidgeting with his hands as he looks around with me. The both of us searching for someone in particular. "What if he doesn't like me in person, Alex?" Scotty bites his lip looking to the floor. The nerves starting to overtake his sense of rationality.

"Scotty.. you're being ridiculous." Scoffing as I look to my friend with a kind smile. The both of us walking further into the station, searching for the Frogman. Gotta say I'm curious about what he looks like. All Scotty told me was that he was a Vem'bulin. That's it.

"Ohh... I'm so bloody nervous.. We've only chatted through messages and video.. We've only only seen each other's faces. I hope he doesn't think I'm disgusting in person.." Whilst Scotty panic's the crowd cracks for a moment, In the distance a 2ft 3 inches beige frogman stands. Looking around holding his webbed hands to his chest, his throat sack blowing up with each breath. Blinking with his large green pupils that shine in the fluorescent lights. "I see him! He looks pretty nervous too Scotty." Nudging my elbow into Scotty's side, he looks up and smiles seeing his boyfriend. "C'mon, let's go. I wanna meet the Frog that stole your heart."

Scotty walks alongside me as we advance to the tiny frog. Glorp'on's throat swells once more as he turns around seeing Scotty walking towards him. "MontGUHRRIBBTPT-! oh my.." Glorp'on blushes a deep blue, holding his webbed hand to his mouth. Ribbiting loudly due to his immense nerves.

"Glorpy... It's so good to meet you in person love.." Scotty kneels down becoming eye to eye with the Frog. Which smiles softly, enjoying being eye level.. All the Vulcans he's worked with always looked down to him... Or worse picked him up.

"As is you Monty." Glorp'on smiles wide showing his toothless mouth. Walking closer to Scotty, clutching his face in his webbed hands pulling it face closer he kisses him on the lips. Pulling away from the kiss with a bigger smile, some slime connecting the two for a moment. Glorp'on looks up to me curiously, pulling away slightly from Scotty. "This is the fe'male you are close ally's with yes? The one you have told me about?" Glorp'on's large round green eyes blink at me slowly. Ew.. that's so weird.. That's gonna take some getting used to.

"Indeed Glorpy. This is Alex, my best friend on the Enterprise." Scotty holds onto Glorp'on's small hand, looking back up to me. Beaming with joy upon finally meeting his partner in person. After all they've been dating long distance for quite a while now.

"It's wonderful to meet you Mr. Glorp'on. Scotty has told me great things about you." Kneeling down as well, Glorp'on looks me in the eyes.

"Truly? Brrpt- What things?" Tilting his head to the side curiously, his throat undulating.

"Scotty told me that you work closely with the Vulcan people. He has said many a time how impressed he with your work as an engineer." Glorp'on looks to Scotty, rubbing his tiny thumb against Scotty's large hand.

"So Glorpy.. you wanted to tell me somthin?" Scotty's heart pounds against his chest, sweat dripping off his face.

"Indeed! I have formally requested a transfer.. to the Enterprise! It has gotten accepted! Thank the pond.." Glorp'on's throat grows large with pride. The pond.. what the hell is that?

"Really?! That's amazing love! I'm so happy for you!" Scotty grins happily, holding both of Glorp'on's hands in his own. Fully kneeling on the floor now.
