New Memory…Starfleet Academy…

Kirk was slumped over his burger and fries in the mess hall. He was sitting alone. He looked miserable. Bones had sent him a message via PADD that he got caught up in the medical building and would be there soon. Kirk let his half eaten fry drop to his plate. Uhura passed by and noticed his state. She frowned when he didn't say anything as she walked by. Usually he had a cheap pass ready and waiting.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't get the girl? Well, there's always tomorrow," she joked, laughing at him.

Kirk chuckled.

"No, never going to get this particular girl," he said looking down at his meal.

Uhura lifted her chin in defiance.

"Damn right, never going to get me," she said smugly.

Kirk smirked at her slightly.

"Wasn't talking about you," he shot back and Uhura looked almost hurt.

Kirk grinned.

"Though I wouldn't mind having you to take my mind off her," he offered and Uhura stormed off angrily.

Kirk chuckled to himself again.

"Girls," he mumbled to himself.

He watched as Uhura took a seat in the corner of the mess hall with that Vulcan professor, Spock. She called it study sessions, Kirk called it secret make out sessions. He saw the Vulcan's eyebrows knit slightly at his favorite student's upset demeanor. Then he saw Spock turn to look at him. Kirk grinned and gave a half hearted wave. He could hear Uhura scoff from her seat. He chuckled. He liked pissing her off. He pushed his plate away from him a little just as Bones sat down across from him.

"Sorry I'm late; the new freaking assistant lost the records of all my patients! How does one do that you ask? Pure stupidity!" he ranted.

Kirk smiled at his friend's clear anger. Bones finally became quiet when Kirk didn't reply to a question he had asked.

"Hey did you hear me?" Bones asked.

Kirk seemed to snap out of his daze.

"Sorry, what?" he asked and Bones frowned.

"You okay? You need me to get the hypospray?" he asked almost excitedly.

"No!" Kirk yelled a little too loud.

Bones and his hypospray obsession needed to be dealt with soon.

"Then what's going on?" he asked quietly.

Kirk shook his head and looked up.

"Nothing—" he stopped mid sentence as his eyes caught hers.

Olivia grinned walking over to her cadet and his friend. She sat down next to Kirk and smiled at Bones.

"Hey Bones," she said cheerfully grabbing one of Kirk's fries and popping it into her mouth.

Bones gave a polite nod to her.

"How are you Lt. Monroe?" Bones asked respectfully.

Olivia chuckled.

"Come on Bones we're in the mess hall, let's keep it informal okay? Its Olivia," she said and Bones grinned.

So she was just as cool as Kirk said she was. Kirk grinned too and Bones noticed his talkative nature returning. His friend didn't look as miserable as he did two seconds ago. Even Uhura saw the change from where she was sitting. Her eyes narrowed.

"Are we meeting today after lunch?" Olivia asked him, stealing another fry.

Kirk grinned.

"Hell yeah, we need to give those new jumpsuits a try," he said and Olivia rolled her eyes.

"Excellent so then I'll meet you in the classroom and then we'll head to the cliffs together to test them out," she said and Kirk nodded.

Olivia stole another fry and Kirk laughed some. She shrugged.

"Sorry, I have to grab what I can since usually you make me skip lunch and these fries are shockingly tasty," she joked.

Bones laughed. Olivia stood up.

"So I'll see you later and Bones, it was nice seeing you again. Don't be a stranger," she winked at him and he nodded smiling.

She walked off and left the mess hall. Kirk's eyes followed her as she left. Bones was hit with realization then.

"Jesus Christ Jim, you like Olivia?!" he whispered loudly.

Kirk shushed him.

"Could you keep your voice down?! Her Vulcan is right over there! He could hear you!" he said angrily.

Bones leaned in and whispered back.

"She's your professor!" he whispered quietly.

"No, really?!" Kirk sarcastically remarked.

Bones sat back in his chair. He was shocked. Kirk shook his head.

"I don't know Bones. I know she's my professor and I know it's wrong, like wrong against Starfleet regulations," he started and stopped.

"Maybe it's just because you're with her almost 24/7. I mean, she's there all the time. And she's cute and cool like us. She's like the best friend that's a girl but not the girlfriend," he said and Kirk shockingly agreed.

"Then what am I feeling? I was fine. I didn't have one dirty dream about her. She was awesome and my friend and my mentor and that's it. Yeah, we played around and everything but nothing sexual. What the hell is happening to me and why is it happening now?" he groaned.

Bones shook his head.

"I'd never say this if it was any other woman but since its Olivia I will. Maybe you should just talk to her," he said and Kirk put his head in his hands.

"This sucks. Women were never this complicated!" he whined.

Bones chuckled.

"Well Olivia isn't the type you usually go for if you know what I mean. She's not cheap and easy," he laughed and Kirk glared at him.

Bones stopped laughing.

"I liked Uhura," Kirk tried but Bones shook his head.

"Uhura's a challenge. She's the one that got away. So you keep it casual with her. A dirty joke, a witty remark, but I doubt the feelings are the same. Olivia isn't like Uhura. You didn't pursue her and she didn't get away. She's right in front of you, you just overlooked her and now it's hitting you. Now, my question is what did she do that made you notice her all of a sudden?" Bones said smirking.

Kirk groaned.

"We were doing reenactment training. Every captain has to go through difficult situations with a cool head on his shoulders all the time. This reenactment happened to be a lesson in seduction. She was from an enemy vessel sent here to seduce the captain, me and gain control of my ship. I thought it'd be no sweat because I never looked at her before, and usually the girls fell for me in the end. She came to class in her uniform, locked the doors, and went into the bathroom. She said when she came out, to pretend like she was boarding the ship. Then she came out and I wasn't ready for what she came out in. (.) Bones, my eyes almost popped out of my head. Not only was her hair down, this dress, I wish it was the Starfleet required uniform. I didn't even know she owned a dress like that," he stopped.

Bones' eyes were wide trying to picture it.

"Well, what happened?!" he pushed.

Kirk shrugged.

"What do you think? I failed that part of the training," he said scratching his head.

Bones burst out laughing.

"How'd she take that?" he asked trying to stop laughing so hard.

"She said we'd try again with a different female. She said she knew it was awkward with a professor," he said shaking his head.

"It wasn't awkward it was hot…too hot. I just wanted to—"

"—okay! Let's not bust into detail alright?" Bones held up his hands.

Kirk sighed.

"What do I do?"

"I don't know, I'm a doctor man, not a freaking therapist!" he exclaimed.

Kirk looked at his now cold meal.

"Maybe I'll talk to her and then jump off a cliff."

Bones laughed.

"Better that then going head to head with that Vulcan friend of hers," Bones said glancing at the half Vulcan.

"He'd never approve of you and Olivia and she respects his opinion highly. They're like, best friends," he said and Kirk looked at Spock.

"Yeah she's more like his only friend," Kirk mumbled.

Bones chuckled.

"I don't know about that…Uhura seems pretty cozy with him too," Bones started laughing.

Kirk's eyes widened.

"So you see it too then? You think something's going on between them?" he asked rushed.

Bones stopped laughing.

"Jim, do you how much trouble they would both be in if that happened? Besides, Commander Spock has his Vulcan logic and Uhura's not that dumb either," he said but Kirk shook his head.

"That's not what I mean! I mean if they're together then he can't really say anything about me and Olivia," he said grinning.

Bones sighed.

"Jim I think these feelings are misplaced. I think you should think about this before one of you gets hurt," he said and they both stood up.

"I will Bones, no worries. I have to get to class," he said patting his friend on the back and heading out.

Later That Day…

They dropped the jumpsuits off at engineering. Olivia handed them to a tech.

"They need a little more padding in the knees and elbows. Other then that, they work beautifully," she said smiling and walked down the lawn with Kirk both rubbing their knees and elbows.

"So that had to be the scariest thing I've ever done," Kirk admitted laughing.

Olivia laughed too. She nodded.

"Yeah, that's definitely up there with things I never wish to do again," she chuckled.

They were walking towards the dorms. Kirk stopped walking.

"I'm not ready to go home just yet," he said looking around.

Olivia turned to him.

"Well what would you like to do?" she asked curiously.

"Want to go get a beer?" he suggested and after some thought she nodded.

"Sure."

They walked to the small bar at the end of the grounds. It wasn't very far. It actually was right near the secret diner she and Spock would steal away too when they were younger. They'd still go every so often now but never had time to stay for long. As she recalled he still owed her a hot chocolate. She chuckled to herself. Kirk opened the door to the bar and she was about to go in when her eyes drifted to the small diner. Her eyes widened. Spock was there and he wasn't alone. Cadet Uhura was sitting across from him, at their table, with their old waitress. She was about to call herself dumb and let it go but then she saw a cup of hot chocolate placed in front of Uhura. Olivia's mouth dropped unintentionally. Kirk noticed.

"Are you alright?" he asked and she looked at him.

"You cannot get drunk today," she said finally after a few moments.

Kirk frowned.

"Why?" he asked.

Olivia took a step inside the bar and nodded.

"Because I'm getting drunk today," she said nodding.

Kirk's eyes widened. Olivia was known to have a beer or two but never more. Usually she took care of him. He nodded as they went in.

"Bartender, two shots please and keep them coming," she sat at the bar and Kirk joined her.

"You sure you're okay?" he asked a little concerned about her change in behavior.

"I'll be fine. I figure I might as well live a little right? Can't keep dwelling in the past, right? Got to look towards the future. And right now, my future holds liquor, lots and lots of liquor."

Kirk would have laughed it was any other person. He watched as she down the two shots instantly and held up her finger for more. They chatted about some stuff and soon he had to tell the bartender no more. She had downed almost more then he usually downed and he figured that was good enough. He didn't have to help her out of the bar. She walked fine but she had this smile plastered to her face. It was darker out she noticed. She looked at the small diner and it was closed. She frowned. How long had she been in there? She looked at her watch but the numbers became all blurry.

"Come on Olivia we have a class tomorrow," he chuckled and she followed him.

"I don't feel anything," she said and Kirk looked at her shocked.

"Nothing at all?" he asked.

She shook her head.

"Think we should go drink more?" she asked innocently and Kirk laughed until he realized she was dead serious.

"Uh, no I don't think that's such a good idea," he said walking with her.

She was quiet for awhile.

"Getting drunk isn't what I expected it to be. I don't feel anything," she said quietly.

Kirk frowned.

"Well it's different for everyone. Though I'll admit I thought you'd be a lightweight," he chuckled.

She joined him in chuckling. Then thunder hit the quiet night. Kirk jumped and Olivia looked up as it began to pour. She stood looking up for awhile as Kirk looked for shelter. Then she started laughing. And she wouldn't stop.

"He took her to our café!" she yelled over the thunder and rain.

Kirk stopped looking and stared at her.

"What?!" he yelled over the sounds and her laughter.

"My Vulcan friend, Spock! He took Cadet Uhura to our café! We used to go there when we were younger! We swore we'd never bring anyone there but each other! He still owes me a hot chocolate!" she laughed hysterically.

Kirk walked up to her. He was panicking. She was being weird and lightening was starting.

"I think he may love her," she said as Kirk got closer.

"And that bothers you?" he asked softly.

Olivia nodded.

"Why?"

"Because I love him," she said looking at Kirk.

Kirk's eyes widened. Olivia nodded.

"But he took her to our café. It's their place now. I think we should get a place," she said to him.

Kirk nodded.

"Yeah but let's get out of this rain first!" he yelled as another booming thunder hit the sky.

Olivia nodded after a while.

"Okay!" she said and they ran to a close building.

Inside they both realized how soaked they were. Their clothes clung to them and Kirk laughed at how she looked. Her hair was in a bun but now it was hanging down and hair came out everywhere. She grinned and ruffled his wet hair.

"Come up to my dorm, we need to get out of these wet clothes or we're going to get sick," he said motioning for her to follow.

She did. Upstairs Kirk walked to his room and noticed Uhura by her door talking to Spock. He ignored it and stopped by his room and searched for his card. Olivia came up the stairs a little slower. She was still giggly. She didn't notice the shocked couple standing at Uhura's door. She stood by Kirk as he fiddled with the door. Olivia giggled.

"Here, I know the skeleton code," she said playfully shoving him out of the way and bending down to see the buttons.

Before she pressed anything she turned to Kirk.

"Uh…look away please. If this code gets out, people can access each other's rooms anytime they want."

Kirk raised an eyebrow.

"So why do you have it?" he asked, a grin forming on his face.

"So I can secretly watch you sleep at night," she said smirking.

Kirk laughed blushing slightly. Olivia punched the code in and Kirk cursed not being able to see it fast enough. She was too quick. Olivia laughed.

"Sorry James, maybe next time," she said as the room door slid open.

Kirk motioned for her to go in first.

"Oh, such the gentleman aren't we?" she mocked and Kirk bowed his head in mock shame.

Spock watched as they went into Kirk's room. He watched the door shut behind them. And then he watched as his fists closed tightly. He did not like that Cadet Kirk. Uhura looked at him.

"She didn't even see us. Do you think—" but Spock cut her off.

"Absolutely not," he said and his face said end of discussion.

Uhura stared at him.

"Would it be so bad though? Besides being against Starfleet regulation, they both looked really happy to be in each others company," she said quietly.

Spock looked at her.

"Olivia would never use the skeleton code to access a cadet's room unless it was a state of emergency. By the way she moved, she seemed to be intoxicated. If that is the case then that cadet would be taking advantage of her," he said quickly.

Uhura frowned.

"Kirk wouldn't do that. He's an ass but he's not like that. He's probably just letting her get cleaned up. They were soaked," she tried.

Spock seemed to be in thought for a moment. His thoughts were interrupted when his PADD went off. He checked it quickly. It was from Olivia, but not.

Commander Spock,

This is Cadet James T. Kirk. I know you saw Lt. Monroe come into my room and I was wondering if you were still in the vicinity to come and get her. She is really trashed and I cleaned her up somewhat but she fell asleep on my couch. I think it best if people saw you carrying her back. Otherwise I'd be more then happy to let her stay with me.

Oh and by the way, tell Uhura I said hey.

-Kirk

Spock looked to Uhura.

"Your friend Cadet Kirk says hello. I must leave," he said and walked quickly to Kirk's room.

The door opened as he got there. Kirk motioned for him to come in.

"She just fell out once she put on dry clothes," he said quietly.

Spock stared at Olivia for awhile before scoping her up and going for the door. Kirk rolled his eyes. He wasn't expecting much from the Vulcan but a 'good night' wouldn't have killed him. Spock stopped at the door and turned slightly.

"Lt. Monroe doesn't drink heavily to the point of intoxication. The one time she did was when she was extremely upset about something some years ago," he said quietly.

Kirk listened. He knew what he was about to ask. Spock seemed hesitant.

"Did something upset her?" he asked after a while.

Kirk nodded.

"She stopped just before going into the bar because she saw something she apparently didn't want to see. She mumbled something later about a small café not being her place anymore," he said not giving too much away.

Spock seemed to understand right away as his posture stiffened. He exited without another word. Kirk watched the door for awhile after. What was happening to him?

End Memory.
