They had touched once. Her fingers slipping over his as she handed him a cup of tea. It was the first time they had made any type of physical contact since Uhura had began working as his aid 4 months ago and Spock could not help but to relish the jolt it had sent through his sensitive skin.
Spock wasn't sure when it happened, the very moment in time when his passing glance at this cadet turned from one of acknowledgment to lust. He didn't know how his mind had allowed such an illogical desire to slip inside and yet here it was burning a hole into his wall of discipline, a wall that if destroyed could and would bring him to do the unthinkable. She had been his student for over two years now but, somewhere along the way Nyota had become something more. He had just recently upon her request began calling her by her first name. He preferred this to her last which although still beautiful did not roll off his tongue as did Nyota.
Spock no longer slept, for to sleep was to dream and to dream was dangerous when a certain linguistics student always found her way in. Since she had become his TA he found that his consentration on work had lowered 5.2 percent. As hard as he tried to focus he would find himself watching the young cadet as she scurried through his office, waiting for the blessed moment when something would fall or she would need to reach for a book on the shelf causing her short uniform to reveal the length of her chocolate brown thighs, it was precisely why he had moved all of his books on linguistics to the top shelf. Today was no different.
He sat back at his desk in yet another futile attempt to keep his eyes from wandering towards Nyotas desk. She sat behind it head slightly lowered so that she could look upon her classmates work. He watched her longingly as her graceful fingers flipped through several pages in the book next to her before marking the paper beside it. Every once in a while she would bring a finger to her lips and subconsciously suck on the tip in a way that Spock found most pleasing as well as uncomfortable, for the Academy's fitted uniform did little to discourage his physical reaction. After a few minutes he checked his watch, 1400 hours, she would be heading to her dorm soon.
