Chapter Four

The One Thing That Remained The Same

TOS, Mirror, and 2009 James Kirk

What Spock Means To Him: Spock is the one person whom he can't live without, that he wouldn't want to live without. Spock is everything to him. He's his lover, best friend, confident, supporter, coworker, brother, heart, soul, protector, the voice of logic and reason, the presence and voice in his mind and soul. He's the father of his children, husband, bondmate, and T'hy'la. There is nothing he wouldn't do for him. He would kill, give up his own life, lie, allow Spock to leave him and go to another. He would give up his career, would disobey Starfleet command, would even find some way to become Vulcan if that was what Spock wanted or needed. He is the only one that he desires, both physically and mentally. He has not voluntary slept with another woman or man since they became lovers. He has not wanted to. Spocks' mind is the only one that he has felt within his own in 103 years. He would not welcome another. He trusts Spock with everything he has. He trusts him with his life, his well being, his mind, his body, his soul, and his love. From the moment he laid eyes on that tall, lean, pointed eared form Spock has owned him, body, mind, heart, and soul. That ownership will continue after death, time, and existence itself has come to an end.
