Epilogue

"It's your turn, Kirk said sleepily as Amanda's cries were heard from the baby monitor.

Spock undid himself from Kirk's embrace and walked sleepily to Amanda's nursey; his eyes glazed over and his black, smooth hair all ruffled up.

The baby lay snuggled up in her pink footie pajamas, but her face was scrunched up in a distressed manner. She looked so beautiful with her dark hair, perfectly pointed ears, and piercing blue eyes. She had received the best attributes from both Spock and Kirk, and Spock could not help but have a sweet smile as he looked down on her in her crib.

Spock picked her up gently, and cradled her in his Vulcan arms while cooeing and touching his temple to hers. She was so warm. His Amanda; his daughter who reminded him so much of his mother with her small smile. Spock was slightly startled when he felt arms wrap around his waist. Jim stood behind him, his chin resting on his shoulder. Jim went to kiss Spock on the cheek, but Spock's head was already turning, and their lips met instead. Both of them had bed head, and stubble from not having much time for proper grooming. They didn't care. They both just stared at their perfect little miracle, and held each other close.

"Come on, Spock. Amanda's fine now, let's go back to bed".

"Jim. I will never have enough time to thank you properly for her".

"I know. But you don't need it. It's all in your chocolate eyes when you look at us," Jim said once more smiling at his Vulcan husband.

Spock settled Amanda back down, and then scooped Kirk up into a bridal hold. Jim lay his head in the crook between his neck and shoulder, and hummed softly from the utter comfort it gave him. Spock set Jim on the bed, and then crawled in himself. They once more intertwined with each other as they had before, and began drifting into slumber; Spock's chest molded to Kirk's back, and one arm draped around his waist in the same possessive manner he always had while they slept.

Within minutes, the monitor once more rang with their daughter's fits.

"It's your turn, mommy," Spock said with a wink.

"Very funny," Jim responded as he kissed his bondmate on the cheek and proceeded once more to their daughter's nursery.
