A/N my head-cannon OTP has always been Spock/Saavik since the TOS movies and novels introduced her.
Chapter 1 PINKY KISS
Saavik and Spock had just finished touring the national monument with his parents, Ambassador Sarek and the Lady Amanda. They sat in front of the American national monument waiting for Spock's mother to catch up. The humans around them thought nothing out of the ordinary for two young Vulcans sitting side by side. Spock and Saavik were sitting closer than was culturally appropriate for Vulcan society would allow. They logically assumed Humans would not know that proper Vulcan etiquette required them to be apart at least by one body space. Saavik and Spock were sitting within an inch of each other.
Saavik and Spock were quietly looking around the monument. Saavik put both her hands down at her sides on the bench. Her fingers stretched out touching the bench. Her palms refusing to rest on the bench. She notes that Spock's parents have yet to come up the hill.
Spock states that his mother usually takes 15 minutes more to catch up to them. His father diligently walks at her slower, human pace, to make sure no one disturbs, or mugs her.
Spock readjusts his sitting position. He does not need to adjust his position to alleviate his back, as humans seem to do. He is Vulcan, after all. He does not sit closer to Saavik because his parents are not there. He is Vulcan. He would not consider breaking Vulcan etiquette. He sits closer to Saavik to whisper to her about the national monument. He is in the process of stating how their "old" monument is young compared to Vulcan monuments, when it happens.
A feeling of hot electricity bolts through Spock's pinky finger, up his arm, up his head and down to his toes. He looks at the source of this new sensation. He realizes his pinky has made a connection with Saavik's pinky. Saavik, likewise is looking at Spock, wondering how this sensation could come about from an accidental touch. Spock knows they both feel the same electrical sensation. They stay connected pinky to pinky, staring at each other, until they are brought out of their hypnotic state by Ambassador Sarek and Lady Amanda. While Ambassador Sarek is stoic and wears a mask on his face, the Lady Amanda is jovial with a smile on her face. She reminds her husband not to be too stern with the children. After all, it's not everyday one accidentally finds their "soul mate" with one touch.
Ambassador Sarek ushers everyone back to the hover car. He has much to think about and meditate before having an important discussion with his wife and son.
