Andrinn had just gotten off duty not too long ago and had just arrived back in his quarters after meeting up with Sam. He had to stop by the Diplomatic Suites back on Deck Two for a moment because he had to approve some things. But, nothing too crazy was required of Andrinn more than just a signature on a PADD.

Andrinn walked into his quarters and the doors swooshed shut behind him as he landed in one of the big chairs in the living room portion of his quarters. Andrinn looked over at his desk in the corner and took a look at the holo-picture that he took of him and Sam while they went hiking back on Earth before they went on this mission some time ago.

Getting up from the chair, Andrinn walked over to the picture and picked it up. He began taking in everything about that picture. It was one of the first times, if Andrinn could remember correctly, that him and Sam had done anything together like that. Not cause they were out there doing something, like going to a wedding or as a part of their collective duties. But, for the sheer fact that they wanted to do something together with nobody else around.

Andrinn was happy that Sam had asked him out like that, especially when Andrinn was still this fresh faced Diplomatic Officer onboard. He wasn't sure what to expect when he first came onboard, but Sam and several others made Andrinn feel right at home.

Andrinn placed the photo back on his desk and just stood there for a brief moment, thinking about several things. He was thinking about everything that him and Sam had discussed about the wedding and how they wanted to do it, as well as who they'd invite to each part of it. Andrinn was thinking about how he wanted to do something special for Sam and how he wanted to give Sam something special during what would be like the wedding reception.

He picked up a PADD and began a recording on it, by saying, "Computer, begin dictation." The computer beeped and replied, "Begin dictation when ready."

Andrinn froze for a moment, thinking about what he wanted to say and thinking about what he could say. He wasn't sure yet if he was going to do this at any part of the wedding or if he was still going to give this as a present after the wedding. But, Andrinn thought about it for a moment as he began to speak, saying, "Sam, I'm writing this today, just wanting to say thank you for everything you've done for me over the last few weeks and months. I know that it was hard down there on the ice planet, but we've made it and god am I glad that you made it through with me. I just hope that you know how freaking special you are to me and I hope that we can continue onwards to a wonderful married life. Thanks for always being by side and just being you. I'm glad to be yours and yours mine."

Andrinn smiled and said, "Computer, save dictation and recording in my personal database. Name it something like W-122344 or something like that and remind me of it once a month until further notice."

The computer chirped and replied, "Affirmative. Both the dictation and recording have been saved to your personal database for safekeeping."

Andrinn put the PADD back on his desk and made sure that didn't have anything that he just wrote on it saved on there. Once that was done, he headed to the replicator to begin dinner and breakfast prep for in the morning, when Sam and him would have another meal together.
