Chapter 3
Yumi and Toshi had left their seats and were standing behind the two Vulcans, whose heads were still pressed together. They were definitely purring. It was just audible above the laughter all around them.
"Cute isn't it?" Yumi said in Japanese.
Toshi tilted his head..it was cute...especially coming from Vulcans who you'd hardly expect...it made him want to squeeze Yumi's hand and kiss her eyelids...
An empty mug flew by Yumi's head and Toshi suddenly found the situation not so cute.
He couldn't say why, but he spoke to the Vulcan woman, not her mate. "Excuse me, ma'am, but is it possible that you are perhaps, effecting the patrons here in some way?"
The Vulcan female, T'Quilloc lifted her forehead from Novasch's...which caused Novasch to let out something that sounded like a...whine...
Toshi was taken back, he'd never heard something so undignified from a Vulcan's mouth.
T'Quilloc slowly took in the scene around her, head wobbling slightly, just as though she were intoxicated.
The rumors about Vulcans and chocolate were definitely true.
"Novascccch," T'Quilloc slurred in her native language, "You are pro...pro...projecting...we must leeeave..."
Novasch lifted his head and surveyed the room...then he looked back at T'Quilloc and put his hands on her face. "But...everrryyone is soooooo happy," he slurred.
T'Quilloc tried to rise, and nearly fell face first into the table. She looked at Toshi. "Please...help...me...us..." she said.
Yumi was closest to Novasch...she took one of his arms and attempted to haul him to his feet. Toshi did the same with T'Quilloc...
And then both Vulcans started growling. T'Quilloc's eyes were trained on Yumi. Novasch's eyes were trained on Toshi...and all the laughter in the cafeteria began to change to shouts of anger.
Toshi and Yumi glanced at one another, which was difficult for Toshi because T'Quilloc's rather ample breasts were in the way and...
Novasch's growl increased in volume.
T'Quilloc spoke, "Perhaps...perhaps you can switch? We are...are...are..."
"Territorial..." hissed Novasch.
Toshi blinked...Vulcans? Territorial?
Everyone in the cafeteria seemed to be hissing now...maybe this was all some weird surrealist dream?
We are terri...terri...terri...In the worssttt wayyyy... please....away from my wife. And it would be wise...wise...if Yumi stepped away from me. T'Quilloc is thinking of biting her...but not in an affectionate way...
Toshi didn't even bother to question where these thoughts had come from. "Switch fast!"
Yumi didn't ask any questions just scuttled under T'Quilloc's arm as Toshi made his way to Novasch.
From around the room there was a collective sigh of, "Ahhhhh......"
Toshi sighed. It was going to be a long night.
A little voice whispered in his mind almost plaintively. But maybe...maybe...in a good way? We do like you...
A/N:
Vulcans! You can't take them anywhere...
Novasch is a character in the Vulcan. There are reasons he is "the devil" in this story.
