Chapter One:

UNREQUATED LOVE

By Novelwriter

Pairings: T'P/R

Disclaimer: I don't own Enterprise. Paramount owns that but if I did own Enterprise I would be married to Capt. Jonathan Archer

REED'S POV

I can't believe I had to stun a superior officer…and of all people it had to be Sub-Commander T'Pol. If she remembers that she will never forgive me much less love me. I mean wait a bloody minute did my ears hear her right. So she has noticed me staring at her when the Captain wasn't looking. I must take more cold showers!

T'POL'S POV

I can't believe that I was considering mating with a human. How illogical! True, I have been observant on the bridge. Many a time I have noticed Lieutenant Reed looking at me and I am not sure why. I can't believe I almost did our head of security harm so I could fulfill some sick fantasy that I have not come to terms yet with. Ugh, I even called the lieutenant by his first name. I have never done something so illogical like that before. I must meditate on this!

Reed's Quarters

What am I going to do about this? I just wish I could talk to her. I can't do that! But if I don't, she will never know how I truly feel about her. I mean, the only time that either one of us is interested, when we are possessed or when we are not in our right minds? Commander Tucker would say that I am not in my right mind for liking T'Pol. I certainly can not have Commander Tucker find out about my feelings for T'Pol.

T'Pol's Quarters

Yes, meditation would be a good thing! (Would it be so bad if the lieutenant joined you for your meditation?) No, I am his superior officer! (Admit it to yourself-you find him attractive! You could do much worse.) T'Pol thought for a moment about her situation. What would the Vulcan High Command say to such nonsense if I mated with a human. The only thing that I could say in my defense at least it wasn't Captain Archer.
