Uhura is secretly engaged to Mr. Spock, keeping it hidden is becoming a problem.
Chapter 1:
Summary: It's best to read the first part but Uhura just got engaged to Commander Spock, they both have been holding back on their feelings.
The Battle for Spock is not so-called war, but of the inner person's struggle of acceptance and trials.
Nyota slowly stood up mind in a daze, like in a trance walks into the shower, removes the warrior outfit. She's rethinking what Spock said:
"I want you to be my bondmate." "I want to marry you." "I want you to be my wife." " I want you…. I want you…. I want you…."
She standing in the shower water running down her body, the shock is still overwhelming from his proposal. She bathes herself not aware that she's done so, steps out of the shower, dry and put on her robe. She wonders to her bed and sits, and continue to re-live the romantic incident, as it was a dream. She hugs herself, smiles, and burst out laughing.
"Oh My God, Spock!" flops on the bed.
This is what she wanted, this is what she waited for, and Spock intends to marry her.
"Just like that,"
However, most important she wanted to marry him, be with him, and know him. They need to take the time to discover each other especially cultures. She had studied Vulcan culture when she was at UCLA and the academy, but experiencing them is a whole new thing. She sat up and looked at the chronometer, she had two hours to get ready and see Spock, and knowing that he is punctual kind of man, she didn't want to make her first mistake. She ran to her closet and started to sift through her clothes. As she did that, she thought all about her previous relationships, all failures, she was just a trophy piece to the men in her past life. She sighed as she felt of hurt and frustration of those relationships, but with Spock, it would be different. He saw past her beauty and worked with her as equal and professional. A smile reappeared on Nyota's face, and continue to shift through her closet and found a soft light off the shoulder green knee length dress.
"This will do, something green to match his culture, something for the man I love."
She draped the dress in front of her body, as the dress danced against her.
Then she went to her jewelry box humming in delight and found matching earrings and bracelets.
Nyota stares into the mirror, and sees a different self, quietly takes a deep breath and turns to get dressed.
