Being back in his own quarters was nice, but he didn’t have much time to enjoy it. By the time he showered, shaved, and dressed, it was almost time to go again. He grabbed his comm and sent a message to Dax and Eric, who were acting as his wingmen.

Everything ready?

Rossi didn’t bother messaging, he called instead, and when his face appeared on the screen, he looked annoyed. “I’m insulted, Strak. I run military operations for a living. Do you really think I can’t handle setting up a simple dinner date?”

“Uh, no sir. I wasn’t questioning your ability, I was just, uh…” he scrubbed a hand through his hair. “I feel like I’m sixteen and about to go on my first fraxxing date. I already screwed this up once, and I can’t let anything go wrong.”

Dax laughed, and somewhere in the background Dante heard Trinity giggling. “Trin, help me! Your boyfriend isn’t being very helpful.”

Trinity’s face popped into view beside Dax’s. “That’s because he doesn’t know what to tell you. I’m the one who asked him out, remember? All he had to do was show up and remind me why I fell in love with him the first time. He had it easy.”

“I don’t remember it being all that easy,” Dax grumbled.

“You’ll do fine, Dante. All you have to do is be yourself. She’s seen you as a badass soldier and didn’t run screaming. Now it’s time to show her who you are when the uniform comes off.”

Dax groaned. “There’s a visual I didn’t need. You’re going to pay for that, Butterfly.”

“That’s not what I meant!” Trin insisted before winking at Dante. “Though, if things start going that way, remember to turn off the surveillance system. You don’t want Magi getting hold of something like that.”

“And this is why I asked for your help. You’re detail oriented. I’ll deactivate the damned thing the moment we walk into the room. Thank you, Trin.”

“You’re welcome. For what it’s worth? I really like Tyra. I hope everything goes well tonight.”

“We both do,” Dax added. “Good luck.”

Once the commander had disconnected, Dante set his comm aside and gave himself a final look over. His wardrobe consisted mostly of work clothes, workout gear, and casual attire, which meant his only option for tonight was his uniform. Normally he avoided reminding dates about his military connections, but he didn’t have a lot of choice. Besides, Tyra already knew what he did for a living. The risks, the violence, all of it.

“Here’s hoping she has a thing for guys in uniform…or out of them,” he added, grinning a little as he recalled Trinity’s comments. He’d like nothing better than to have his shortcake for dessert tonight, but that was her call to make, not his. He’d grown up watching his mother being abused and controlled by the men in her life. By the time he was old enough to date, he already knew he would never be like those men.

His comm chimed again. Magi was checking in.

Operation Date Dazzle is a go.
