My first ever Star Trek ficlet.
This will be a series of little drabbles about an OC and Kirk. :) Not in any particular order, but this is how they first met.
There will be titles of songs in each drabble, because that was the song I was listening to while I was writing them.
Feedback would be greatly appreciated.


Song: Trust Me by the Fray

There was a commotion going on outside of her room (more like a prison cell than a room). She had no idea what was going on and it scared her to no end as she shifted her way father from the door, the chains around her wrists clanking as they made contact with the wall.

Then the door burst open and a man, maybe just a few years older than her, ran in with a Vulcan at his side. Her heart rate accelerated as she stared at them. She was still scared shitless and even whimpered as they came closer to her. She quickly backed away from them, fearing that they were going to hurt her.

She then noticed the emblem on their shirts. Star Fleet. She knew she could trust them, but there was this little voice of doubt that kept telling her that they could still hurt her. She was wary of placing her trust in people these days.

"Hey, it's alright. We mean no harm. We're going to get you out of here," the man said as his Vulcan friend grabbed hold of the chains. She stood frozen, watching the Vulcan as he freed her from her chains.

The sound of loud voices came into the room and her eyes widened. The things that she hated with every fiber of her being were going to get her and she would never be able to leave. The two men exchanged glances before the younger one looked her in the eye.

"Do you trust me?" he asked as he continued to look her straight in the eye as he held out his hand.

She quickly looked down at his hand and then back up at his eyes. As she looked in his eyes, she could tell that he was being sincere and that he truly wanted to save her.

"Yes," she said sounding more confident than she looked. She grabbed hold of his hand.

"What's your name?" he asked as he led her out of the doorway, after Spock said the coast was clear.

"Caroline Michaels," she stated as she instinctively leaned in closer when she heard the voices get louder.

"Well, Caroline, it's a pleasure to meet you. That's my friend Spock, and I'm Captain Kirk of the Enterprise. But you can just call me Jim," he said.


Disclaimer: I only own Caroline. I'm just having some fun. :)
