Author's note: So apparently people think that Nyota is rushing and being way too OOC. To those who were kind of rude to my in the last chapter: Everything will be explained in due time. There's a reason she's acting this way. Trust me - I'm the author. But seriously; don't be dicks in the comments. I'm writing a story and I know when one character is acting different then normal. That being said:
THIS STORY IS A LITTLE AU (I mean, Spock and Jim were together) AND THE CHARACTERS ARE GOING TO ACT A LITTLE OOC!
Apparently, it needs to be screamed so that no one chops off my head and eats my insides... Now, I apologize for this rant. I hope someone reads it.
On to the story...
Disclaimer: I don't own shit. Don't blame me if the characters are not to your absolute satisfaction. That's the way they are written.
Spock woke to Nyota gently nudging his shoulder. He bolted up, confused by his surroundings. He was back in the unused quarters hallway.
"You okay?" Nyota asked, reaching out a hand slightly. Spock brushed off the non-existent dirt on his pants and nodded.
"I believe that I became overly tired and my body went into a sleep state for a moment to collect my energy." Uhura looked at him unsurely.
"Are you sure you don't want me to call McCoy? I could go and grab..." Spock cut her off with a shake of his head.
"I am fine, Nyota," he added in hopes of easing her worry.
"You want to go back to our room? You can sleep some more. Or meditate. Whatever you want." Nyota looked anxiously at Spock as he nodded.
"We can return to the room." The pair walked down the hallways of the ship, idly talking as they approached the room. Once there, Nyota punched in her code and they entered.
"Listen. I do not want you to feel obligated to house me because I am your superior. To lessen the probable consequences of my staying here, I have decided to leave. It is not in any cause of your hospitality. You were a wonderful host, but I do not want to impose myself on you any longer. I hope..." Nyota cut him off.
"Oh, shut up. I don't care if you feel like I'm 'obligated,' or you're 'imposing on me.' I'm helping you out because, well, because I might have a small thing for you. I know that it is improper and you probably don't feel the same, but..." Spock also cut Nyota off, but his way was with a kiss.
"I do, but it would be unfair to you to pursue a relationship so soon after I was with the Captain." Nyota nodded.
"I understand. But I just want you to know that you can still stay here and I won't push you to do anything you are uncomfortable with."
"Thank you, Nyota."
Damn. It's been a long time since I last updated. Over a year. I'll be honest. I've lost a lot interest in this story. The updates will be very sporadic until I get back in a better mindset. I have too many issues to continue working on this story right now.
Thanks to all of my followers who've stayed by me. I will eventually finish this story, but not right now.
I'm sorry.
