New story! Sorta... I wrote this about 3 years ago, forgot about it, decided to get back into writing and found it again! Eventual Kirk/Spock/McCoy and I mean, a long as freaking time when I say it'll get there eventually. Set in the 2009 universe but definitely AU to canon. Might eventually get higher rating but we'll see. Chapters will be a mix of large and small. More to come, sit back and enjoy!
You'll Always Be My Little Boy
"Mother I do not wish to bond with T'Pring. I –"
Amanda was silently holding back her tears as she listened to her seven year old son list the many logical reasons why he should not be betrothed to the Vulcan girl, T'Pring. She agreed whole heatedly.
Amanda wished with all her heart that this did not have to pass, that her innocent child could be free to marry whomever he choose, that her little boy would not one day suffer the dangers of Pon Farr…
Sarek would not hear of it, hoping was illogical and the healers believed that Spock's 'poor' blood would not allow him to survive his Pon Farr without an existing bond.
All Amanda wanted to do was do right by her son, but was this really the answer? Having her seven year old boy be married off when he is too young to choose himself? What if he never suffered the Plak Tow? What if he fell in love with someone else?
Amanda didn't have a choice in the end.
Neither did Spock.
