Uhura puts her hand on her chest and replies with an obvious question, "Who me? Well, no. Why would anyone want to be matched to someone that is knocking on death with every mission?"
"I don't know, someone who really likes you might go anywhere with you, not so?" Major adjusts his legs being in one position for so long is giving him cramps.
Uhura looks at Major with a puzzled face, "Major, are you for real? You're not talking romance here right because I can tell you right now I'm quite fine being single and unattached."
Visibly nervous as he was already unsure about asking it in the first place he immediately blurts out, "No, no, just conversation, why does the topic make you uncomfortable or something?" He puts on a big grip.
"Not the least bit uncomfortable but I am curious as to your reason for bringing it up but I will take what you said about 'curiosity'". Uhura returns a grin of her own.
"Hey, when you're sitting here watching natives dance around you as if they're going to have you for dinner you begin to just think about everything, that's all."
"I see..." Says Uhura while looking at Major in a confused way. She then switches her attention back to the dancing and follows through by saying, "They certainly are enjoying themselves."
"Yes, more than us perhaps. Maybe we should try and call into base to see what we can get in the mean time."
