"Say what you want about Kirk, it's McCoy that's the real jackass," Martha told her friends Uhura and Xela. They were lying on a grassy knoll a few klicks south of San Francisco, waiting for the Peleides to start. It was a rare night off for the three cadets, and they were making the most of it, with open bottles of wine lying between them and the remnants of their dinner neatly packed away.

Martha had been hiding with the Doctor at Star Fleet Academy for two months now, and she felt like she was over her head. Even with everything she had read in her spare time on the TARDIS, there was so much she was ignorant about. It didn't help that she wanted to kill Leonard McCoy every time he opened his (admittedly attractive) mouth to offer some sort of backhanded comment about her abilities. Telling herself that he wasn't any worse than the medical students she worked with back home, she did her best to ignore him whenever she could.

"I think Kirk's cute," Xela commented, causing both Uhura and Martha to roll their eyes. Although they disagreed which one was worse, they had similar opinions regarding the two friends. What annoyed Martha the most was that this was the group that the Doctor in his human form had decided to fall in with.

"Ladies, I hate to see you looking so lonely." Speak of the devil. Martha looked up and saw Kirk, McCoy, and the Doctor standing there. She and Uhura both looked at Xela, who shrugged innocently. Trying not to hit her head against her hand repeatedly, she closed her eyes and wondered why again she was friends with Janice. She didn't care if the other cadet thought Kirk was hot. Where Kirk went, McCoy was sure to follow, and she had to deal with him enough times while in class to want to interact with him outside of it.

"I hope I'm not inconveniencing you any," McCoy's sarcastic voice said from next to her. Opening her eyes, Martha gave him a forced smile.

"Not at all, Dr. McCoy," she answered as politely as possible. Determined to ignore him, Martha turned her attention back to the star-lit sky and tried not to count down the days until the Doctor could safely open that fob of his.
