Visiting hours

[Sara Lee Jones]

8 weeks after the rebellion

Sara opened her eyes, it was morning again....another dream that just...was horror....she sat up as she rubbed her eyes and looked around, she was still in the hospital...just as she had been for 8 weeks, she looked to her right arm...still in a cast..today she'd get it off and be allowed to leave...and straight back into duty for the first order navy

The doc came in and started looking her over make sure everything had healed properly, her then removed the cast and let her go

She started out if the hospital, walking slow through the halls...unaware of who she would meet again on this day...all she knew was she needed a hard drink and good food

Not really paying attention on where he was walking, Aran was making the rounds of the wounded crew he served with at Kaeshanna. Making sure they get their commendations, they were okay, etc. This hospital would be his last stop before he went to get some lunch, it had been a long day, lots of wounded to get through.​

​

As he was walking through the halls looking down at the list of names who were admitted here, not really walking fast as this was a hard job for him to do, but still not really looking ahead. As he is walking down the hall, he bumps into [member="Sara Lee Jones"]​

​

​

"Oh I'm so sorry, I wasn't paying attention where I was going it was my fault."​

She had been deep in thought, thoughts if those who had been lost...the intense battle with the other enemy pilot before crashing and somehow surviving such a thing...she was snapped out of the thoughts as she ran into someone, she was about to a cold them then stopped as she saw who it was and brought a quick salute with her left

a..ah commander Piett! My apologies sir I did not mean to run into you...my deepest apologies,

She said the. Relaxed as she offered a smile.

can't say I'm surprised to see you here...with all the wounded...mind if I join you..kinda got nothing to do at the moment

 

[Aran Piett]

"It is fine Captain, and it was my fault, I wasn't watching where I was going. Sure if you don't mind most not being in the Starfighter corps."​

​

He smiled back at the pilot. It has been awhile since he saw her, but he could still remember when she showed up on the Subjugator. There were only three more rooms to visit in this hospital.​

​

"You are welcomed to join me for lunch as well, since this is my last stop before I was going to get myself some food."​

​

[member="Sara Lee Jones"]​

 

[Sara Lee Jones]

[member="Aran Piett"]

thank you sir, and I'd love to I'll by the drinks...docs around here don't seem to know when you need good food or a drink right? Hahaha

She got beside him as she walked looked around as she spoke again

you know seeing you again...reminds me of that decision long over due...possibly we can talk over lunch after this

 

[Aran Piett]

"I don't drink, I leave that to my XO she drinks plenty for the both of us. Also what do you expect it is a hospital, the food isn't bad but it doesn't beat homemade or a good restaurant. Though I never really planned that far ahead, anything you are craving right now?"​

​

Walking down the hall to the last room on his list for this hospital, Aran quickly walks in, his head sinks, as Sara can see him be embraced by another woman who is crying, in his arms. He pats her on the back, whispers something in her ear and hands her a small box, which would contain a commendation for being wounded, which now didn't seem like much, as he takes off his own Iron Sun Second Class, and hands it to the woman. Aran whispers something again to her as she stops crying. Still holding his head low, he walks back out of the room.​

​

"Let's get out of here, I've had enough of this for one day now."​

[Sara Lee Jones]

Nice steak or something really anything can go at this moment, but if I had to choose a nice Bana that burger would be awesome

She watched him walk in and hung back, she frowned as she saw the lady crying...no doubt a mother, daughter...or even wife of one who was lost in the madness...a battle that didn't even need to be started in the first place....and with such high mitary and civilian casualties...she didn't wanna think that over any more then she had too...she had heard her men got out...some at least...others had been lost...

i can tell, I can imagine this wasn't the first....let's just go head out to lunch talk less on...this solemn air
[member="Aran Piett"]

 

[Aran Piett]

Just nodding, as having to comfort that woman was still hard for him, he follows Sara out of the hospital.​

​

"Alright well I'll let you pick where you want to eat, and I'll take care of the bill."​

​

Smiling, he looked at Sara and couldn't help to notice the scar over her left eye. Aran never noticed it before but then again he never really looked at her with great attention until now. He then remember about the military ball coming up and wanted to ask her to go with him, but thought to wait to talk more and get more acquainted.​

[Sara Lee Jones]

She looked at him with a hint of surprise and smiled, something she didn't expect for a man she heard rumors would execute disobedient officers...then again she didn't know him well enough

well then such a gentleman, I know if a place not to far from here ten minute walk

She said exiting the hospital with him and gave a smile starting down the street

so tell me so I can here it is heard we had the victory over the alliance? I wish to here from someone there
[member="Aran Piett"]

 

[Aran Piett]

"Well from what I know we did, though I was on the bridge of the Indomitable the whole time, so there was a stalemate, but the Alliance did come to terms with us. But that is as far as I know, I just at one point was ordered to stand down."​

​

Walking next to the pilot, he felt a sense of comfort. Almost like he wasn't alone in the world. Though many of his small Task Force were wounded or killed, this thought and feeling diverted him from it.​

​

​

"What kind of place is this restaurant?"​

​

​

[member="Sara Lee Jones"]​

 

[Sara Lee Jones]

She gave a nod as she sniled...so it was true what she had heard...

hmm well then I heard right then just wanted to hear from someone that was there

She gave a smile as she walked forward, she felt at ease knowing the day had been won, she also felt good knowing she had someone beside her...

nothing fancy has some good drinks and non alcaholic ones, serves same darn good burgers and fries too

The two entered and was seated, handed a menu then the waitress left

[member="Aran Piett"]

 

[Aran Piett]

Taking a seat across from Sara, Aran starts to look over the menu for something to eat.​

​

​

"Seeing how you seem to have been here before, what would you suggest?"​

​

Looking through all the burgers, the place had, something had to have drawn the man's attention, but yet he couldn't help but to look at the pilot across from him. Things were put into perspective with this combat action for the Commander.​

​

"Did you hear about the Military Ball the higher ups are hosting, for those wounded?"​

​

​

[member="Sara Lee Jones"]​

 

[Sara Lee Jones]

well I'd suggest the Loco burger if you want soemthing spicy the big Ben buRoger has lots of cheese and bacon which I shall be going for

She placed her menu down with a smile, she couldn't help but notice that aran had his eyes on her...she gave a smile to him as he asked her about the ball

now I have not actually guess I'll have to find a dress and a date huh hahahaha
[member="Aran Piett"]

 

[Aran Piett]

"Well I mean, I have to find one as well." ​

​

Laughing a bit as he said that. He looked over the menu one more time, found what he was looking for.​

​

"I think I am going to just have a burger with bacon, grilled mushrooms, and lettuce. With ketchup, and mustard. As for the ball, care to be my date?"​

​

[member="Sara Lee Jones"] ​

 

[Sara Lee Jones]

She gave a smile as she inputed what they both wanted, as the waitress brought out two sodas as Sara stopped and looked to aran...sudden question but it did solve one problem...besides better then none

you know that doesn't sound bad at all I think I'll take your offer up on that
