Convincing Part 5


        "So,  what are we going to do about.." Tom Paris trailed off.  "You
know, the secret."
        "Well, we should start looking.  I mean, if we are going to do that, we
need to start looking for the place." B'Elanna  Torres answered.  They
were in the holodeck looking through places in the Alpha Quadrant to
hold their wedding.
        "How's this one?" Tom Paris asked as he created a planet that very
familiar.  It was Kessik.  The rolling green plains,  the wide spread
lakes and the tropical rainforests.  Torres looked around like she was
in a dream.  She turned.  "I don't know.  It brings back memories."
        "That's okay," Paris said quickly.
        "Wait,  I got it!!!"  Torres said.  "She grabbed the PADD from Tom and
whipped through the choices.  She pressed a few buttons and they were
standing on an ivory platform.  All around them were waterfalls.  The
sound of water pounded down.  A hazy mist settled the sky.  They were
surrounded except for a narrow walkway leading to the mainland.
        "Where is this?"  Paris asked, looking around amazed.
        "On Betazed.  They are the Odrian Falls," she replied.
        "Well, I think we found the place for the wedding!!!" Paris said.
        "Are you two love birds done yet?" came a voice from behind.  They
turned to see Harry with Kes.  Kes was holding flowers and Harry was
holding other decorations.
        "Yes.  I think we are done.  Why?"  Paris answered.
        "You two have done quite enough work for today.  B'Elanna you look
tired. you should get off your feet. Go back to your quarters and lie
down,"  Kes said, eyeing B'Elanna's growing stomach.
        "That would be a good idea.  My feet are starting to swell."  She headed
toward the door.  She turned.  "Are you coming, Tom?" she asked.
        "No, I have to go on duty.  I'll see you in a few hours,"  he replied.
He gave her a kiss and they headed different directions.
