[Ericka's quarters]
Ensign Ericka Torres, a former Maquis, younger paternal half sister to B'Elanna Torres and Chief Communications Officer woke up with a start, her combadge was going off.
"What?" she groaned as she grabbed it off the beside table, it occurred to her that she was wearing a shirt that was too big for her and realised it was Tom's, they had a choice of a singlet or short sleeved shirt underneath the turtleneck.
"You're a trained medic, right?" B'Elanna asked.
"Yes--" Ericka trailed off.
"Well, it a few moments you're going to have a visitor." said B'Elanna.
"What have you done?" Ericka asked.
"Nothing." B'Elanna said.
"Sure." said Ericka sarcastically.
Ericka wormed her way out of her bed and grabbed a fresh uniform to get changed into.
"Come back to bed." Tom said sleepily.
"Can't, you need to hide. I think B'Elanna's done something stupid." said Ericka.
Tom groaned and rolled out of bed, grabbing his uniform, Ericka pushed him into the bathroom as she grabbed her hair brush from the sink.
Ericka brushed her hair and then grabbed the hair that gets in her face and plaited it.
Her doorbell rang, just as Ericka finished tying her hair up, she answered it and saw Tuvok standing there.
"Can I help you?" she asked.
"I understand you were a medical student at the Academy." states Tuvok, keeping a normal Vulcan expression.
Ericka folded her arms across her chest.
"What did B'Elanna do?" she asked.
"Torres punched Carey in Engineering and I would like your opinion" said Tuvok.
"You really don't like the EMH, do you?" she asked.
Tuvok didn't answer.
"Give me a moment." said Ericka.
She stepped back into her quarters and made her way to her bathroom where Tom was standing fully dressed.
"You need to go back to your quarters." Ericka said.
"What now? When the corridor is busy?" Tom asked.
"Just check when it's clear. What time's your duty shift?" Ericka asked.
"0800." Tom answered.
"Computer what time is it?" Ericka asked.
"The time is 0730." said the Computer.
"Half an hour." Ericka said.
She turned and left or was going to when Tom grabbed her waist and spun her around and kissed her.
"Okay, Tuvok's waiting. B'Elanna punched Carey." Ericka said.
"Ah." Tom said.
This time Ericka did leave.
She and Tuvok walked in silence.

"Holy Mary, mother of God." Ericka said.
Lieutenant Carey sits up from the biobed, blood streaming from his nose.
"She's not just out of control, she's out of her mind." said Carey.
