Chapter 11-Exit Music (For a Film)

Izzie took Eli's face in her hands. "Eli…you are the great love of my life and I don't ever want you to forget that. But that man in there," she pointed to Spock, "he is my soul-mate and I can't abandon that."

Eli shook his head. "Izzie…no."

Izzie gave a sad smile. "I have to go cher. Please try to understand. I love you."

Eli couldn't believe this was happening. She's really not crazy. What do I do? He took her hands in his and kissed them. "I love you too Isobel Landry. We'll see each other soon."

She nodded. "Yeah…yeah we will."

She walked towards the portal and gave him one last look.

Then disappeared.


The portal shut after she walked through. "Ooof! I'm getting really tired of doing this," she said.

Before she could say anything else, Spock strode over to her and crushed her lips against his.

Jim stood there with his famous shit-eating grin. "Ow ow!"

Bones rolled his eyes.

When Spock broke the kiss, Izzie just stood there with her eyes still closed and dreamy smile on her lips.

"Isobel," he said. "I thought I had lost you."

Izzie smiled. "Well that's just illogical. You'll never lose me."

"Ugh, alright, enough with the sappy shit," said Bones. "Izz, who was that guy you were standing with?"

Izzie took a deep breath and told them all what had happened since she'd been transported back in time, except for the baby. She wanted to wait to tell Spock privately.

Jim was floored. "So he let you go? Just like that? Wow."

She nodded. "Yeah. Poor Eli. I feel awful."

"But you saved him Izzie. That's kick ass!" said Jim. "Let's go get you settled back in."

They began walk down the hall when Izzie gave a scream.

The three men turned and saw Izzie clutching her stomach.

"Oh God…it hurts!" she yelled.

They rushed towards her. "I've gotta get her to sick bay now!" said Bones. "Good God! She's bleeding!"

Izzie reached down between her legs and felt something wet. Pulling her hand back up she saw that her fingers were coated in blood. "No…NOOOOOO!"

Jim and Spock looked at each other, completely unaware of what was happening.


Once in sick bay, Jim and Spock were forbidden to enter the area where Izzie was being treated.

While he made no facial expressions, Jim could tell that Spock was frantic on the inside.

He sat down next to his friend, "You know Spock, maybe she just came down with some weird virus from being transported back and forth. I'm sure Bones will figure it out and it'll all be ok."

Spock just stared ahead. "I just got her back, Jim. I cannot lose her again. I will not survive it."

Izzie lay on her side, facing the wall. Bones came and sat next to her. "Did you tell him?"

"I didn't really get the chance to tell him now did I?" she said. Her face crumpled. "Oh God this all my fault."

Bones held her hand. "No. No it is not. There is nothing you could've done. There was no way for you to have access to the treatments that your body needed. They hadn't been invented yet."

"What was it? A boy or a girl?" she asked.

He hesitated. "A boy," Bones replied.

Izzie lay there, stone faced. "I need to see him."

Bones shook his head. "I don't think that's a good idea Izzie."

"Bones…let…me…see…my…son."

He walked into the other room and then came back out with a tiny bundle.

Outside, Jim and Spock heard screams. They ran into the room and saw Bones holding something up to Izzie's face.

"My baby! My son! Oh God! No! I'm so sorry!" Izzie was sobbing uncontrollably.

Bones looked up and saw Spock and Jim.

Spock walked up to Bones. His eyes looked down to the bundle in his arms. Inside was a small fetus, no bigger than a lemon. Spock saw the green tint to its skin and the tips of his pointed ears.

Spock looked at Izzie with a blank stare. Her eyes pleaded to him. "I'm sorry Spock. I'm so sorry."

He turned and walked out of sick bay, ignoring Izzie's wails.

Jim went to follow when Bones stopped him. "Don't Jim. He's…emotionally compromised. Let's leave him be for now."


Spock shut himself in his quarters for 2 weeks. Refusing to speak to anyone. He received transmissions from Spock Prime and Sarek, but ignored them. He spent most of his days meditating but found little solace in it.

My son. I had a son. I was going to be a father.

Izzie was finally released from sick bay. Before leaving she went and sat down in Bones' office.

"He's never going to forgive me," she said.

"He will. Just give him time," replied Bones.

Izzie spent the next few weeks working in the lab, trying to take her mind off of the grief she felt.

She'd heard that Spock had gone back to work a few days ago. Izzie still hadn't seen him. She thought it best to give him space for the time being.

About 2am, as Izzie was working the in lab, Spock walked in.

"Forgive me, I was not aware anyone would be here at this time," he said.

Izzie gave him a half smile. "It's ok. I'm glad to see you."

Spock clasped his hands behind his back. "Yes, well I apologize for interrupting you. I must leave."

"No, Spock wait. Please." She walked towards him. "Please don't go. We need to talk about this."

Spock looked down at the floor. "I do not believe there is anything to discuss."

Izzie's face filled with hurt. "Nothing to discuss? Spock, we lost our son."

"Yes, and its spirit has gone to join that of my ancestors. It is illogical to dwell upon this."

"It? It?" Izzie began to fume. "A boy, Spock. Our SON!"

Spock snapped. "Do you not think I am aware of that? I CANNOT dwell upon it. It is of no use, to me or you."

Izzie shook her head. "You may choose to hide behind that Vulcan façade but I can still see the pain in your eyes."

Spock turned. "I must leave."

"You're going to hate me forever, aren't you?" she whispered. "You blame me and you are right to do so. I should not have come back."

Tears began to stream down her face. She pushed past Spock and ran out the lab.


Time passed slowly. One month. Two months.

Izzie tried her best to return to normal. Spock was just as stoic as ever.

During a routine survey of the planet Heller, Jim allowed Izzie to beam down with the away team in order to collect samples for study. The away team consisted of Izzie, Spock, Bones and two ensigns.

Spock and Izzie were working side by side to collect samples on the side of a hill, neither speaking to the other.

All of a sudden, the ground began to shake. Before she knew what was happening, Izzie tumbled down the side of the hill, hitting rock after rock.

"ISOBEL!" Spock yelled. He ran after her. "Spock to Dr. McCoy, you must meet me at the bottom of the hill, Dr. Landry is injured."

Spock knelt down beside Izzie and cradled her head in hands. "Isobel. You must wake up. Please…I need you…to wake up."

Izzie slowly opened her eyes. She could see the worry on his face. "Spock."

Relief flooded through him.

Bones came swiftly and scanned Izzie. "She'll be alright. Just a few cuts and bruises. No concussion."

Spock immediately called for the team to be transported back to the Enterprise.


Later that evening Izzie rang the chime to Spock's quarters.

"Enter," he called. He turned around and was met with the sight of Izzie. She had a few cuts and bruises on her arms, but he still thought she looked beautiful. Her long curls were let loose, flowing past her shoulders. Her aqua eyes filled with hesitation.

Izzie walked towards him. "I know that things have been difficult between us. And you have every right to hate me. But today I saw the concern and fear in your eyes for me. I just…I want you to know that I still love you. I believe with all my heart that you're my soul-mate and I don't' give up on that sort of thing."

Spock put a hand on her face. "I do not hate you Isobel. I could never hate you. I confess I have been selfish in my behavior towards you. However, my feelings for you are unchanged."

Izzie smiled. "Really?"

He tilted her chin up and placed a gentle kiss on her lips.

"Spock. When did you first realize that you had feelings for me?" asked Izzie.

Spock thought for a moment. "While I would not phrase it as 'having feelings' for you, I admit that I first began to notice you more often after the group gathering in Jim's quarters."

"Really?"

Spock nodded. "Yes, I found myself paying more and more attention to you. Especially in the lab. I found you to be…quite appealing. I confess I was drawn to the sight of you looking into the microscope with your glasses perched on the edge of your nose. And your hair displayed in an unruly manner."

Izzie laughed. "Oh…my hair. It's always been such a mess."

"Quite the contrary, I find your hair to be most aesthetically pleasing," he said.

He then proceeded to run his hand through her hair.

Izzie responded by pulling his face down for a kiss. It was gentle at first and then became stronger, almost urgent.

Spock began leading her towards the bed. Pulling away from her lips he said, "I wish for this to last much longer than our first encounter."

Smiling, Izzie pulled him down onto the bed with her.

She began by pulling his uniform shirt over his head, while Spock kicked off his boots at the same time. Izzie reached down and began to unfasten his pants. In one swift movement she pushed him onto his back and straddled his knees.

"I think it's only fair that I be in charge this time, Mr. Spock," as she gave him a wicked grin.

Spock's lips twitched in what could be called a smirk. "As you wish."

Izzie slowly pulled his pants off, along with his boxer briefs. She sat back, mesmerized by the beautiful man underneath her. She began to kiss his neck, slowly moving downward.

Grabbing his hands in hers she pushed their palms together in a Vulcan kiss. Spock's head jerked back at the intensity. Izzie smiled as she began to kiss his hands. "I love your hands. So delicate and yet so strong. I can only imagine the things these hands are capable of."

Izzie continued kissing his body, venturing lower and lower until she was face to face with his cock. It was tinged green and hot to the touch. Looking at Spock, she slowly eased her mouth onto it, giving a low moan as she felt its silkiness.

Spock's eyes rolled back into his head. He could hardly believe the sensations he was experiencing.

She continued to suck and tease his aching member. Finally, when he could stand it no longer, he grabbed her by the shoulders and flipped her over.

"I do believe it is only fair that I repay the same kindness," he said with a twinkle in his eye.

He began by removing her boots. He started at her ankle and began to plant light kisses up the inside of her calf and inner thigh. Spock could smell her arousal and it only amplified his own.

He removed turned her over and unzipped the uniform dress, sliding off her body. He unhooked her bra and threw it to the side.

Spock gingerly cupped one of her breasts, relishing the feel of its velvety softness and how it filled his hand perfectly.

Izzie gasped as he took her nipple in his mouth. Sucking slowly, his eyes never left hers.

He other hand began to roam down until he reached her panties. Spock could feel the heat and wetness through the thin fabric. Still using one hand, he pushed her panties down her hips and onto the floor.

Taking his mouth off of her breast, Spock quirked an eyebrow and said, "As you have such an appreciation for my hands, I think it proper to indulge you in their skills."

Izzie was unable to form words. Oh God, this Vulcan talk is HOT!

Spock slid his hand down to the juncture between her thighs and began to massage her mound. His fingers then slid between her folds, searching for her sweet spot. She was hot and wet. Spock felt his cock harden even more, using all his strength to remain in control.

Leaning down between her legs, his mouth joined in with his fingers.

"Oh God…Spock!" Izzie was clutching the sheets frantically.

She could feel the tightness in her core, building and building. As Spock began to suck harder, she felt herself explode into a million pieces.

Looking down, she saw him lick his lips and give a small smirk.

Izzie pulled him up to her face. "I need you Spock. I need you inside me…to complete me."

He nodded and began to position himself over her.

She put a hand to his chest. "Wait…do the mind thingy. I want us to be able to feel each other."

He gently placed his hands on her psi points and Izzie felt him slipping into her mind.

Spock.

I am here Isobel…my Isobel. My t'hy'la.

Make love to me Spock.

He slowly slid inside her, both of them moaning at the connection they had so greatly missed.

Izzie threw her head back as he began to move inside her. She grabbed his shoulders and held on for dear life.

Spock began to thrust harder with Izzie wrapping her legs around his waist, drawing him deeper inside her.

The pleasure they felt over the bond was almost too much. Her muscles began to clench around him. Spock could feel himself growing close to the end.

He leaned down closer to Izzie. "Look at me Isobel. Look at me."

Izzie struggled to open her eyes.

"Come with me."

All of a sudden, Izzie's muscles clamped down on his cock as she experienced the most intense orgasm of her life. Every cell in her body was on fire as she felt the white hot explosion in her core. She dug her nails into his back. And he was right there with her, spilling his seed into her, her muscles milking every last drop.

SPOCK!

ISOBEL!

He collapsed on top of her. Spock could feel her heart pounding. Their bodies were slick with sweat.

Moments later, Spock lifted his head to look at Izzie. Her eyes were filled with tears.

"Have I injured you Isobel?" he asked.

"No Spock," she said, wiping the tears away. "I'm just…it's just…too much, you know? It's as if my body can't contain so much happiness."

She leaned over to kiss him and felt him harden inside her again.

Her eyes widened. "Wow…Vulcan stamina is quite impressive."

Spock began to kiss her jawline. "Indeed."

They made love several times that night. Each time more intense and special than the one before.

They were both still awake when Spock's alarm went off.

"I must attend to my duties on the bridge," he said.

Izzie gave a pout. "Nooooo. Stay here...where it's warm and there's a hot naked chick."

"Isobel, are you not in need of rest after last night's activities?"

"Nope. I went away remember? And now I want to make up for lost time," she replied.

Spock quirked an eyebrow. "It would appear that your human stamina is much more superior than most human women."

Izzie smiled. "Yep."

Spock pulled her into his arms. "Perhaps we can come to a compromise. I will attend to my duties on the bridge and then meet you in lab."

Izzie's hand snaked down between his thighs to stroke his already hardening cock. "And perhaps we can finish this in the lab?"

Spock gave a small moan. "I would like nothing more t'hy'la."

She looked up into his eyes with seriousness. "I love you Spock. With all my heart and soul."

Brushing hair back from her face, he looked tenderly into her eyes. "And I love you as well Isobel Landry. You are the half of my heart and soul."

He pulled her in for a deep kiss as his alarm sounded again.

Sighing Izzie threw back the covers. "Ok let's go. I'm hungry. Let's go get some tacos!"

Spock tilted his head. This woman is still a complete conundrum.

THE END.


A/N: WHEW! All done. When I got to end, I was craving tacos so I just threw that in there lol.

I'm kinda sad. You know, I wrote this story in less than a week. I've just been dragging out the posting to hype up the suspense (dunno if that worked very well). Thank you to all my sweet readers and reviewers. You've given me the confidence to write more.

And just like my other story, if you can figure out the connection between the titles of the chapters (and the actual story title) you will be the most amazing person ever in my book. (Google-ing it doesn't count) :D
