Hey everyone still reading! So, last chapter I started doing the multiple POV's. It was just something I felt had to happen for the storylines to expand to the Scones bits and I will eventually have Spock's POV in there. Hope everyone likes that. As for the comments, Thank you! Haha I apologize for some of the spelling errors. I was quite tired while writing and I knew that "sattle" looked ridiculous but my sleep deprived mind couldn't fathom what it should have been. Anyway, Enjoy!

Jim's POV

Jim sent a copy of the brief for Flexa 6 to Spock's personal PADD knowing that he would be so far ahead of his other duties that he could keep himself busy with learning about the next mission. 'Not that he needs something to keep him busy. I can't think of a single time that he wasn't doing something…If we all were at half his capacity this would be the most efficient ship in the damn galaxy.' Jim smiled trying to fill himself with the feeling of love hoping Spock could feel it himself. He could sense Spock's eyes on him and he turned to give him a small smile which Spock returned. Jim loved the link he shared with Spock. He felt more complete. He had never felt this way about anyone before. Sure he had fallen but never to the point where he could picture the rest of his life with them. If fact, living the rest of his life without Spock seemed to make his stomach turn. 'Stop thinking about that! You're gonna make yourself throw up. Star captains do no throw up over things like this.'

"Are you well Captain?" Spock stood close to the right side of the captain's chair startling Jim.

"Yeah! Yeah I'm…fine. I just had this thought that…never mind. It's nothing Spock. Thanks though." Jim tried to hide the pink of his face. 'You are a total girl right now…'

Spock raised a single eyebrow which Jim recognized as disbelief. "If you are certain than I will return to my station."

"Seriously Spock, It's nothing. Hey, tonight can you tell me about the cocoon planet?" Jim's face brightened in curiosity.

"Of course. I will brief you over dinner in your quarters…if that would be acceptable." Spock whispered so only the two of them would hear.

"Sounds perfect." Jim felt warmth from Spock as he nodded and turned back to his station.

Spock's POV

Spock returned to his station and opened the brief for Flexa 6 he found in his inbox from Jim. 'Excellent. I will be able to brief Jim on everything the Federation has provided as well as what information I have already attained. It was a nice gesture. He must know that I am ahead of my work.' Spock broadcasted his affection out towards Jim receiving a warm response. Spock was still fascinated by the bond he shared with Jim. When he was first became aware of the link between Jim and himself he was very confused. He had never felt the kind of bond that existed before. He had been so confused he contacted his counterpart on New Vulcan to ask him if he had experienced such a bond in his timeline. His counterpart explained that he did in fact end up bonded but was very tight lipped about the person he was bonded to. He explained that he did not want to interfere with the events of this timeline more than he already had but told Spock to continue to do what felt right. Spock took his advice and when he told Sanek of his new relationship with Jim the older Vulcan actually laughed. Spock was a bit taken back thinking that Sanek had taken it as a joke.

"You believe I am trying to be humorous?"

Sanek sobered a bit before replying but mirth still filled his face. "Oh no, I do not think you are. I am laughing because my Jim once said that it didn't matter how many parallel universes there were out there because in each one he and I were meant for each other. It was only right. It seems he might have been on to something."

Spock thought about that comment now sitting at his station while glancing at his view screen. 'I wonder how Jim would react if I shared his counterparts thoughts on their relationship in parallel universes…he would most likely laugh. One of his favorite past times. I do find his face when he laughs appealing. His chuckle this morning while he was in the middle of. No. Do not think such things on the bridge.' Spock could feel a sense of curiosity from Jim which was a response to the embarrassment Spock transmitted. Spock put his head down and started reading the brief he had not started reading after the 10 minutes it had already been brought up.

Bones' POV

By the end of shift Bones had stitched three engineers, wrote up 12 medical workups out of the 28 that needed to be finished, and dished out too many flu shots to count. It wasn't a bad day at all according to the rap sheet The Enterprise had and Bones was just happy to leave at a decent time. 'Hell I might even beat Monty.' Bones said goodbye to Chapel and M'Benga and made his way down to the mess to grab something quick to eat. Bones grabbed a turkey club and sat down with Jim who was sitting by himself with a PADD and a sandwich himself.

"Where's the hobgoblin?" Bones started in on his sandwich.

Jim looked up with a smile. "He had to check something in the lab. Something about a solvent problem in one of the experiments…not sure what he was talking about. I honestly think he makes some things up just to confuse me."

Bones chuckled. "Leave it to you to fall for the one person who can outsmart you."

"Yeah, guess that's part of the appeal huh?" Jim put his PADD done and started actually eating his food. "Where's Scotty? I'm not used to seeing you at dinner at this time. You're usually still in Sick Bay. Chapel finally kick you out?"

"No. It was a slow day…for this ship. I wanted to eat something and shower before Monty's off shift. He's finishing off a diagnostic on his latest repairs."

"Oh I gotcha. You got some sort of date night planned or something?" Jim casually ate his sandwich noticing Bones stiffen a bit. "What? Okay, so not a date..."

"Well, uh. I guess you could say we had some plans tonight but I don't really know to tell you the truth." Bones felt his cheeks heat up. 'Christ. Calm down.'

"Oh…OH! Wow, so you guys haven't…you know, yet?" Jim kept his voice quiet.

"No. No we haven't. We are taking it slow ya know. I've never done anything like that and well…for God's sake he's one patient man." Bones turned even redder.

"He cares about you Bones. He doesn't want to mess the best thing he's ever had going for him." Jim tried not to embarrass his cantankerous friend even more than he already looked.

Bones scoffed. "I find it hard to believe a divorced, grouchy, old man is the best thing out there but thanks."

"First of all, you are two years younger than him. Second, Scotty knows underneath those claws is a giant teddy bear. Third, your ex was a crazy bitch who didn't get how great she had it. You know all of that you pessimist." Jim stuffed the rest of his sandwich in his mouth.

"Yeah, yeah…remember to chew by the way."

Jim washed down his sandwich. "So, how long have you guys been together? I mean, officially."

Bones furrowed his brows and paused in his eating. "About a month and a half."

"And in this time you guys have only what? Kissed? Scotty does have some patients then cause—"

"Well, no. That not all that's happened." Bones ducked his head.

"Oh, so there has been a progression…I think you should go for it Bones. I know you want to," Jim gave Bones a pointed look after Bones raised an eyebrow at him. "Don't give me that look. You're just worried about not knowing what to do. I think you will find that you'll figure it out and be glad that you did. So," Jim glanced at the clock. "Get the hell out of here and shower and change into something that's not Star Fleet issue and…have fun." Jim gave Bones his devilish smirk before picking up his PADD again and making a shooing motion with his other hand. Bones rolled his eyes and got up taking both their empty trays. 'He's absolutely right. It will be fine, and probably a lot more than that.' Bones made his way to his quarters shed his clothes and jumped into the shower.

Spock's POV

Spock spent an hour after shift in the science lab trying to correct a mistake made by one of the young science officers who had mislabeled several pieces of an experiment. The result was scrapping all of the previous data collected and starting the experiment over. Luckily that particular experiment was only three days old so it would not be too trying. Spock kept complete composer over the mistake even when the officer at fault apologized an excessive amount of times. Spock maintained control, but it did not mean that he did not feel annoyance. He felt Jim on the other side of the bond sending a small amount of a calming sensation. 'I wonder if he is aware that I feel annoyance towards something and he is trying to alleviate it…that is fascinating and also, sweet.' Spock set up the control for the new experiment and labeled everything himself so that the following day it could begin again. He then left a very apologetic science officer to clean up the mess caused be the mislabeling and made his way towards Jim's quarters knowing Jim would be done with dinner. He chimed the door and heard Jim's muffled reply telling him to come in. When he entered the room his nose filled with a familiar smell.

"I told you that you don't have to chime to come in." Jim walked up and embraced Spock in his arms before claiming his mouth in a delicate but passionate kiss.

"So I've been informed."

Spock felt a tinge of remorse when Jim pulled away and Jim chuckled. "Wow, I could actually feel that you didn't like that I pulled out of that kiss. Good to know I have the same affect you do on me." Jim pulled Spock's hand over to the table which held a bowl of traditional Vulcan soup. "Sit down. You want some tea with your soup or just water?" Spock raised an eyebrow. "Don't look at me like that. You haven't eaten since this morning because of whatever had you so annoyed in the science lab."

"You are correct. I have not. I was just surprised that you had made this soup for it is a traditional dish found on Vulcan and I was unaware that you knew anything about Vulcan cuisine besides the vegetarian aspect."

"Yeah well, I may have done some research…" Jim smiled turning to the replicator. "Water?"

"Yes please and…thank you Jim. This is one of the nicest things someone has done for me. I have not had this particular dish in 6 years and it is…nice." Spock was filled with the love he had for Jim.

"Anything Spock. For you, anything." Jim put Spock's water down and he brought his head down to kiss Spock's forehead before he took his seat across from Spock.

Spock started to eat the soup and was pleasantly surprised by the taste. 'Jim must have changed some of the setting on the replicator. This is quite satisfying.' Jim insisted on Spock explaining the situation in the lab and laughed every time Spock said, "At this point the lieutenant apologized again."

Scotty's POV

After several hours of finishing his reports on all the repairs to the engine chamber and at the same time avoiding Pretige, Scotty left Engineering. He walked back to his quarters to grab a few uniforms. 'I should just have laundry send my things to Len's. It would save a lot of trouble. I could just use my quarters as a storage or work space…it's already half way there anyway.' Scotty chuckled to himself while he threw some of his stuff into a duffle. They had been together for about a month and a half technically, first kiss is his marker, but they have basically been sharing quarters for almost two and a half months. For the first month it was like they both knew they wanted each other there but couldn't admit they were more than friends that crashed at each other's places. Number one being their quarters were on the same ship, and two being they always ended up cuddled on the bed. Scotty laughed to himself again. 'Man, we are idiots. Stubborn idiots, but I love that idiot.' Scotty left his quarters reading a PADD along the way with an article on a new theory in element combustion on it. Scotty had his eyes glued to the screen as he passed crew members in the hall. He opened the door to Bones' quarters and dropped his bag on the bed. He heard a door swoosh open so he lifted his head to see Bones walk out of the bathroom completely naked covered in beads of water.

"Mother Mary." Scotty dropped his PADD on the ground and Bones froze in place.
