- Three Months Later -

The Enterprise is currently on it's way to Glorp'on's home planet Amphibia.. Where Scotty is to have dinner with Glorp'on's family before the wedding the next day.. let's just say, he's anxious. "God, I'm so bloody nervous.." Scotty wrings his hands as he looks down to the floor of his bedroom. 

Sighing softly with a smile, I pat him on the back gently. "It's gonna be fine Scotty." Seriously, he's worrying over nothing..

"What if Glorpy's parents don't like me? Alex what if-" Scotty's eyes rise from the floor, looking into mine with great anxiety behind them.

"Shush! They're going to love you Scotty. You're an amazing man, give yourself some credit!" Smacking him gently on the chest with a joyful smile. 

Scotty sighs loudly as he stands up from his seat. The both of us hanging out in his quarters until we arrive to the planet.. I'll admit, I'm not excited about the venue of the wedding.. We're going to be in a large swampy pond.. Which is apparently customary for Vem'bulin weddings.. 

'Kirk to Scotty, we're just now entering the planets orbit. Might wanna go to the transporter room.'

"Scotty to Kirk, Alright Captain.. I'm on my way.." Scotty turns to look at me. Feeling his heart pound in his chest from the anxiety.

"You got everything you need Scotty?" Looking over to his luggage with a squint.

"Aye.. I'm sure.. Glorpy helped me pack.." Scotty grabs the large suitcase sitting on his bed. Hoisting the heavy baggage up.

"Okay, me and Spock will meet you down on the planet before the wedding. Good luck with the dinner with the in-laws buddy. They're gonna love you." Scotty nods slowly, letting out a deep breath.. a moment later the door chimes, then it slide open.. Looking down I see Glorp'on holding a tiny suitcase that looks like it's made out of a huge leaf.

"My love? Are you ready?" Glorp'on's throat inflates as he steps into the room, his feet making cute slapping noises on the tile floor.

Scotty nods quickly, walking over to his fiancé. All three of us exiting Scotty's room, standing in the hallway. "I'm ready love. Let's go.. I'll see you later Alex." Nodding to Scotty, I give him a reassuring smile. Glorp'on waves to me as they both walk down the hall.. Glorp'on hitching a ride on Scotty's shoes, holding onto his pantleg.

- Planets Surface - Scotty POV -

Appearing in a clean looking StarFleet's building with a shimmer, I blink away the residual transportation fluctuations. Glorp'on grabs ahold of his bag and begins to walk to the exit of the building.. his feet making the cutest slapping noises. Looking around, I see various Starfleet personal and some Vem'bulin people.. They must work here.

Exiting the building and stepping into the muggy swampy air, I cough out due to the sheer humidity.. looking down I see Glorpy take a deep breath, releasing a relaxed exhale. "Ahh... Home sweet home.. C'mon love! Let's grab a Florpt to my parents home. It's on the outskirts of the city. They must have plenty of grass to farm their Meesho's." Glorp'on gestures for me to follow him down a blue stone pathway... Taking a better look around, I see a dense swampy landscape. Filled with various species of mangrove trees, long vines covering the branches.. Various houses appear to be built inside of the walls of a muddy canyon. A small stream flowing through the center of it all.
