Timeline: MD009 1900 hrs

Quinn had left the USS Pioneer, and returned down to the resort to spend more time with his family. After a quick change of clothes, and a shower. He walked down to the beach with Enya. Ameri had yet to catch up with them. She was a little delayed, but should be arriving shortly.

"Daddy, can we get some ice cream?" Enya asked, as she practically dragged him to a vender booth, and looked up at her father, with excitement in her eyes. She was hoping her father would say yes.

"Sure, order 3." Quinn said, as Enya made a run for the venders booth. She had a lot of energy. Quinn smiled at her. As he did, he noticed two hands covering his eyes. He could smell her sweet scent of perfume and sweat.

"How am I suppose to be keeping an eye on my daughter, if the most beautiful woman, I have ever met is closing them?" He asked in a loving and playful tone. He spun around, as he noticed Enya walking over with three cones.

As he spun around to meet Ameri's gaze, he saw that warm smile, that melted his heart everytime. He knew how lucky he was, and he was grateful she said yes to him. He was so in love. He could not imagine his life, without her in it.

She reached in and hugged him tightly. Then looked into his eyes. "Let's go for a walk, it's a nice night for a stroll on the beach." She said, wanting to get away from the resort. Something seemed a little off about the staff.

"I would like that." He said, as he looked over to Enya. But he did not have to ask, she was starting to head to the beach. "We better catch up to her." Quinn said, as he took his wife by the hand and chased down Enya.

"Where you going with our ice cream?." Quinn asked with a big grin on his face. The warm sun beam was striking on his face, but it was starting to get later in the night, so the intensity was not that bad.

Enya handed them the ice cream, that started to drip a little on her hand. Ameri laughed, as she took the cone. Ameri started to consume the cone, thinking to herself, this was nice. A nice break from reality. She spent most of the day re calibrating the sensor array and updating it .

Enya had the way down the beach, with her parents in hot pursuit. They could tell that Enya was loving this mini vacation. Enya could hear music playing in the background, and made a straight line for the music. As they arrived, her parents had finally finished their ice cream cones. They were slower at eating ice cream, that Enya was. With a little sun dress on, she started to twirl along to the beat of the dance.

"Would like to dance? Or should ask that lovely lady over there if I can join in?" Quinn asked, as he was making reference to Enya dancing. He dragged Ameri out of the make shift. They started to dance right next to Enya. Everyone was having way to much fun.

They continued to dance to a few more songs, so much so that Quinn started sing along. This got the attention of the band leader, but he did not approach Quinn at the moment. He waited for them to take a break.

"You got a pretty good voice, wanna come up on the stage and do a couple of jams with us?" Asked the lead singer of the band.

Quinn was not really there to jam-out with the local band. He was there to have fun and spend time with his family. Quinn felt Enya tugging on his shirt.

"Do it daddy." She simply said, with excitement in her voice.

Quinn was a little hesitant. "Appreciate the offer, but I only know a couple of songs, most of them are from home world. But I appreciate the offer." Quinn said, hoping that was going to be the last of it.

"The boys are good at improvising, if you can play a beat, or sing the first couple of lines, we can match you style. I am tired of playing the same songs, and really could use a jam partner." Said the Lead Singer, still trying to get Quinn on board.

"Come on Daddy, do it." Enya said.

Quinn looked to Ameri for support. "Come on Daddy, do it." Ameri said, as she reached in and gave Enya hug. She decided to join Enya in this. She knew Quinn liked to jam out. He did it all of the time back home, why not in front of a bigger crowd.

Quinn shook his head, he knew there was no way to back out of this now. "You have a guitar?" He asked, with a big grin on his face. He needed to think of a fun edgy upbeat song to play. Then it dawn on him. He knew what he was going to play.

"Remember you to asked for this." He said, as he walked up on the stage. The lead singer pulled up a second microphone, while another guy brought over a guitar.

He started to practice a little on the side of stage. After a few moments, he motioned to the band, he was ready. They got the crowd ready, and Quinn started to approach the stage. He started with a long opening guitar solo. He could see Enya loved it. Ameri just looked up smiling at him.

Quinn starts to singing, ♪♪Rick Trevino's Bobbie Ann Mason song.♪♪ He dedicates it to Quinn started to sing, as he looked directly at Ameri, while strumming on the guitar, keeping the lyrics going.

As the song continued to play, the band picked up on the beat, and before to long. They had a real jam going. Quinn was laughing, and singing his heart out to his wife. Every lyric he could, he was dedicating them to his wife.

He sang about being by his wife for three years at the academy, and how did he ever get an education. The audience seemed to like the song. Everyone was starting to have fun. But he did not want to be up on the stage all night. But the audience was cheering, and being a little rowdy. They really seemed to like the song, the lead singer picked up on the chorus.

After the song completed, he handed the guitar to one of the band members, but grabbed the microphone, and walked down to the audience and started to sing to Ameri another classic country song to his lovely wife. ♪♪clay walker hypnotize the moon.♪♪

He started to slow dance with his wife, as he started to sing the lyrics to his wife. The audience started to find partners to dance with. Ameri was a little embarrassed, but was really appreciating the gesture, of the song. After a few lyrics she joined him on the microphone. The scene starts to fade, but the night was just getting started for the Ó Flannagáin family.
