Thank you everyone who read and reviwed, it really does mean a lot.

I made my way over to sickbay to be greeted in my usual manner. Bones rushing towards me with a hypo.

"Hey!" I said as I started to run away from him, "What's that for? I haven't done anything wrong!"

"Oh really?" he replied a little loudly, "I find that hard to believe since you haven't been here in forever! Who knows what you have been up to?!"

"What? Did you miss me Bones?" I joked, my golden smile firmly in place.

At that he grumbled but put the hypo down. "What do you want Jim? I can't have you crowding my sickbay!" I looked around, only to see Nurse Chapel organizing some medical supplies and nothing else happening.

"There's no one in here Bones!"

I was only rewarded with more grumbling. "Lets go in my office." He said heading towards the door.

"So." I stated in my cocky voice that I knew he hated. "What's up with you?"

"What's up with me? What's up with me? Nothing! That's what! I never have anything to do on this damn ship!" he vented sitting behind his desk while I took my customary seat on the smaller desk in the corner of the room.

You see, this is why I like to come and see Bones. Suddenly my life doesn't seem so complicated and all he did to was rant a little about nothing. Yet it works every time.

"Wow. You seem to have it pretty tough Bones." I said in a semi-mocking tone.

"Oh yeah? What's so wrong with your life huh?" he challenged.

"Do you honestly want to know?" I asked, suddenly getting serious.

He looked at me and slowly replied "Yeah."

"Alright, but don't say I didn't warn you." At this he looked at me incredulously.

"I like Spock." I decided that I should just basically blurt it out.

He just stared "So, besides being a green-blooded hobgoblin he is a pretty decent guy I guess. I could see why you would want to be friends." He firmly stated. He was clearly in denial. Or had no clue what I was talking about. I needed to break it to him softly.

"No Bones, not like him as a friend. More…like. a. crush." I slowly said, almost cringing away.

I was met by silence, but I could see the blood traveling to his face. But then after about a minute he went off like an atom bomb.

"WHAT?!?! JIM, ITS SPOCK! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? I NEED TO GET A HYPO, YOUR SICK! I NEED TO SAVE YOU!" he screamed, starting to fumble around looking for anything to try and "fix" me.

"Bones! Shut up! I'm not sick!" he was still going off, rummaging through the drawers in his desk. "BONES! Shut up!" that eventually got him to calm down.

"Look, Bones. I know it's weird, but it's true. I can't explain it, but I do. I haven't ever felt this way about a girl." I calmly said. "Or a guy." I added as an after thought.

"Jim, why? I don't care that it's a guy. I mean, honestly, it doesn't surprise me, you just like sex, so what does it matter. But Spock? Come on, anyone but him. He has no emotions!" he practically pleaded.

"I don't choose who I want to like! You may not think he has feelings, but I have seen them Bones, I know he does." I said.

"Jim, are you sure? I'll always support you; you know that. I just hope you really thought about this, you're my best friend. I don't want you getting hurt." He said sincerely.

"Yeah, Bones. I'm sure, I have been sure for like two months." I replied.

"Well, okay. If you're sure Jim, I'm always here for you." He said, with a look that clearly said he was waiting for this whole situation to explode.

"Thank you, Bones. It means a lot." I said as I got up to leave his office. "I'll see you later, okay?" and with that I left his office only to hear "You better be back soon! And preferably not dying!" I left the medical bay with a smile on my face; I knew talking to Bones was a good idea.

I made my way to my quarters; I needed some time to rest. With only about 14 hours until we reached New Vulcan I really needed to catch up on some sleep.

I fumbled my way into my quarters finally starting to feel how tired I actually was, I made a b-line straight towards my bed shredding my clothes as I went. When my head finally hit the pillow I heard the last thing I ever wanted to hear. Someone knocking at my door.

With a tremendous amount of effort, I lifted my head from my pillow and called out a "Hold on!" I gathered up some pants to put on so I was at least decent not bothering to even think about a shirt.

I opened the door to reveal my First Officer; it's safe to say I woke up pretty quick. I noticed his small reaction to seeing me shirtless. His eyes quickly glanced over my stomach and lingering over my chest slightly longer than was necessary. All in all I was pretty pleased.

"Oh, Spock. What can I do for you?" I asked, slightly confused as to why he was here.

"Captain," he started. But once again I quickly cut him off, "Come on Spock, you know I want you to call me Jim. Why don't you come inside, so we aren't standing in the hallway?"

"Thank you, Jim." He said as he entered my room, starting to blush ever so slightly.

Once he entered my room it seemed like the customary awkward silence that liked to follow me decided to make itself known. I sat there looking at him waiting for him to start to speak. But it didn't look like he was going to start any time soon.

"So…" I started. This seemed to break him out of his silence because he started to speak.

"Jim, I have found myself thinking about my encounter with my alternate self quite frequently these past few weeks. One thing he said to me has been the basis of what I have been thinking of. He told me that you and I would have a friendship that would define us both." He stated looking directly at me.

My heart was starting to beat faster with every word he said.

"Directly after the conversation I found myself highly doubting the truth to his words. But as these weeks have passed I have come to the conclusion that, perhaps, he was speaking the truth. I have seen what you have accomplished in these short few months following the attacks and I believe that such a relationship is a possibility." He continued, slowly walking closer to me.

"Oh…" I didn't really know what to say. My heart was hammering in my chest from what he was telling me. It sounds like he respects me and wants to get to know me better.

I didn't know what to think at this point. He was still staring at me with a barely conceal intensity. Everything I thought was confusing twenty minutes ago seemed like they didn't matter anymore. I didn't know what to do, so I followed my instincts.

I slowly closed the space between us and kissed him. At first he tensed, but he soon relaxed into the kiss. The feeling of his lips on mine was incredible, they were so hot and soft I never wanted it to stop.

He slowly raised his hands to cup the side of my face and gently grab the back of my head. My arms were lost roaming his back. The moment seemed to last forever and yet finish all to quickly.

Soon, we parted and he looked at me breathing deeply and flushed as deep green. He seemed like he wanted to say something but thought better of it.

He slowly raised his hand and touched my face, tracing a line down my jaw and lingering slightly on my chin, with that he left my room, leaving me in silence not knowing what to do.

A/N: They finally kissed!! :D I was really excited that they got to this chapter; I don't plan anything out so it just happened. I wonder what will happen next!?

Please review!
