"I wish you didn't have to go," you said quietly.
"I'll be home in about a week, lassie," Scotty said, trying to keep the mood light in the shuttlebay.
You sighed, taking his hands in yours. "Don't worry, we'll keep the engine alive until you get back."
He chuckled softly. "I'll hold you to that."
You smiled lightly. "Stay safe, okay? We don't know a lot about these aliens..."
"You don't need to worry, lass. I'll be fine," he said, rubbing his thumb against the back of your hand gently. "In eight days time you'll have forgotten I even left."
"Just try not to piss anyone off," you said, then lowered your voice. "Or try to keep Jim from pissing anyone off."
Scotty laughed. "I'll do my best."
"Scotty," Jim said, poking his head out of the shuttle. "We have to get going. Sorry, Y/N."
You nodded to the captain, then looked at Scotty. "Hurry home."
He kissed you, quickly but sweetly. "That's a promise."
You smiled. "Good luck."
He nodded, then boarded the shuttle. "Be nice to my engine while I'm gone!"
