ONE OF FIVE...
"I'm home!" McCoy entered their quarters to find Nyota waiting on him. She was sitting on the sofa, arms and legs crossed, and her eyes were narrowed into such thin slits he would have thought she was asleep if he couldn't sense the anger radiating off of her.
"Uh, is somethin' wrong? I mean, is Kirk alright?" Nyota didn't immediately respond. Instead she raised herself from the sofa and stomped into the room they were using for Kirk's nursery. Returning promptly with their son she strode to her husband and held Kirk out to him. Taking the baby he looked at his wife in confusion.
"Nyota, you're scarin' me. If ya don't tell me what's wrong I can't fix it Darlin'." She began to pace in front of him and he bounced Kirk gently.
"Leonard, you know that I love you and when I agreed to marry you I agreed to marry every part of you but this is not what I wanted for Kirk. I mean, you just can't help yourself can you?" Leonard McCoy was shocked. Nyota had never spoken to him like this and certainly never in front of Kirk. He started to ask her what she was talking about, but she trudged on ahead and he closed his mouth so as not to interrupt.
"I mean, he's just a child and already now he's headed down a path of ill repute!" He shook his head in confusion and furrowed his brow. He could feel a headache coming on quickly.
"Dammit Nyota, why don't ya just say..."
"DAMMIT!" Both parents froze and Leonard looked at his wife. Her hand gestured to the baby and then him in an accusatory fashion. Leonard stared at his son in shock. Had he just said his first word? He was elated! Wait a minute...had his first word been what he thought it was?
He turned back to Nyota who was now standing with her arms crossed. Yep, well, at least everything was clear now.
