Uhura looked over at Spock, feeling the tension that was rolling off of him. She gently touched his shoulder, looking at him worriedly. "Love, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," Spock said quietly as he directed his attention towards the report that he needed to help Kirk understand. It was helpful to throw himself into work when he didn't want to talk about his feelings. It was more to suppress his feelings rather than let them boil over due to the human half of him.

"Love, I know you think you can lie to me, but you really can't," she said gently as she looked at him. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," he repeated until he sighed and looked up at her. "Father wants me to take a break, come to our New Home, and impregnate someone."

"And you can't do that with me?" She asked of him and sighed softly. "No, you really can't."

"I could if you wanted me to," he said with a smile at her, softly kissing her cheek. "As you are the only one I feel love for." Another lie, but he didn't care. Besides, it was only a half lie then.

"Hrm," she said with a knowing smile. She knew better than what he was telling her. "Maybe I do and maybe I don't love. However, I do understand why your father wishes for you to do what you need to do."

"Why do I need to do it?" He asked of her, softly kissing her shoulder as he set the report aside.

"To help your father," she said quietly as she moved closer to him. "It's the right thing to do."

"Due to the fact that the child would be more Vulcan," he said and sighed. "It's logical, from his point of view. That doesn't mean that I want to do it."

"I know," she said quietly as she moved, softly kissing his forehead. "You should though."

"Why are you pushing me towards something that is illogical for you?" He asked.

"I don't want you to be unhappy about what could have been, love," she replied simply with a soft smile to him. "Plus, I'm not really the jealous type when it comes to something you should do for your race."

"There will always be the unknown," he said quietly and sighed softly. "I'll talk to my father about it.

She kissed his lips lovingly as he agreed with her, gently pulling him towards their bed to relax him further.
