"Let me see her." Khan demanded from behind his glass prison for the third time.
Kirk shared a glance of approval with Spock, sending a few lieutenants to retrieve her. He kept a close eye on Khan like he was scared in case he would find a way to escape his confinement.
"Khan!" The gasp from the girl who was surrounded by four men in red shirts.
"Sylvia!" She pushed her way past the guards effortlessly.
She jogged up to the glass cage, placing her small delicate hands against it. Khan placed his hands against it near hers, gazing down at her small physique.
She still looked the same as he remembered her. He hated himself for getting her dragged into this mess. He couldn't bare to see her get hurt in this war.
He started it and he was determined to finish it and he wasn't allowing her to be one of the casualties.
"Let me in Captain." She tilted her head to Kirk with pleading eyes.
"I don't think I can-"
"Please Captain Kirk let me in or I sure as hell will find a way to get him out here."
Kirk did as he was told and commanded that she be allowed into Khan's cage. Once she entered the cage the doors shut behind her, but she didn't care.
She was standing in front of him, basking in his handsome glow as he watched her with his gorgeous eyes. A smile twitched onto his lips.
She wasn't afraid of him, there was no need for her to be afraid of him.
Before the freeze they were close, closer than any of the other people they were friends with or the rest of the crew. People would say they were dating but they would always deny their relationship to anyone who asked. They weren't ashamed of it, they just felt scared of what people would say if they found out.
They felt like no one was watching, like they could see out of the glass box but Kirk and Spock were incapable of seeing in as they wrapped their arms around each other and shared an intimate kiss, one they weren't able to share for 300 years.
