Spocktacular:
What Could Have Happened Part 12
Nyota was dumbstruck, her heart pounding in her ears and blocking out all other noise. She couldn't have heard what Spock had said correctly, it couldn't be true. Mind Meld with Spock? Permanently?
"Permanently?" She whispered, awed. Spock flinched slightly, and nodded. She blinked and realized his eyes were heavy and scared. Spock was nervous; he was putting himself on the line here, basically declaring his undying love. The fact that it was a desperate measure was insignificant; it was the mere idea that was so incredible.
Nyota's heart beat faster, heat flooded her body and her stomach clenched in joyful anticipation. She had never had such strong butterflies in her life, and she found herself smiling. She became aware of the fact that Spock was still standing in front of her, his features clearly displaying his disappointment and despair at her lack of response. She laughed.
"Of course I will Spock! Of course I will meld with you!" She stepped towards him and lifted him up into the air. She laughed and turned around, pulling him into an embrace.
"Of course I'll meld with you Spock! I love you! I love you!" She exclaimed, and leaned down to kiss Spock full on the lips. Spock seemed surprised but responded with enthusiasm. When she finally pulled back she was in control of her emotions again. Spock was not. He was grinning from ear to ear and she could hear his heart beating out a furious tempo.
"Nyota! Thank you! Thank you my love!" He laughed and leapt into her arms again, pressing his lips against hers once more. Nyota couldn't contain a smile, overwhelmed by the joy of the occasion. She had never believed that he would ask her to stay with him forever, and yet he just had. She held Spock for a while, simply enjoying this comfort. After a while Spock withdrew, his face still illuminated with a grin.
"Nyota, I need to teach you how to perform the meld. As you are the Vulcan here, you must initiate it." He stated, his eyes gleaming. Nyota contained a smile.
"Please demonstrate." She turned and led the way to the bedroom. She sat down, and motioned for him to sit next to her. He bounced onto the bed and crossed his legs. Nyota crawled over to him and gently took his hand. Spock ran his thumb across her knuckles and she shivered.
"Nyota, you will have to put your finger tips on my temple and cheek. Like this." He took her hand and placed it in the correct position on his delicate face. Nyota nodded.
"Now repeat after me, 'My mind to your mind, my heart to your heart.'" He stated calmly, still smiling slightly.
Nyota blinked and closed her eyes, "My mind to your mind, my heart to your heart." And suddenly she was no longer in her body, but floating in a world of emotions, thoughts and memories. She swam through the jumbled of consciousness, feeling strangely at ease. Suddenly a strong, warm, loving presence enveloped her. She realized that Spock and she were no longer two entities, but one—she had never felt so accepted in her life.
"Nyota, follow me." Spock's real voice reverberated through her whole entity. She smiled and realized her feelings were being displayed to Spock for she felt a rush of affection from him. He gently led her through the maze of thoughts, emotions, and memories. Every now and then they would stop to observe a certain memory or feeling.
After what seemed an endless amount of time, and no time at all, Spock stopped and she felt his attention come to bear completely on her. She sent him a smile.
"Beloved, I will pull back now. When you awaken, you should be in your real body." His voice was sweet and caressed her. Nyota sent a wave of love back at him, and then felt him retreat. She immediately missed his warmth, feeling oddly cold in this alien environment. Suddenly she felt him yank and some part of her screamed out in pain as the connection was broken. She was alone once more, and never before had she realized just how alone she truly was. It was chilling and she wished to be connected once more. Nyota gasped in a breath of deep air and opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry, from tears. And she was confused by the sight in front of her.
A handsome person was sitting near her, his eyes closed. He had a strong jaw and a slight shadow of facial hair. His lips were lush and full, and he had curiously sharp arrowed eyebrows. She blinked, still uncomprehending as she stared at the pointed ears and the bowl hair cut. Suddenly the individual opened his eyes, and Nyota was pulled in by his powerful, emotion filled gaze. She could get lost in those eyes. And suddenly everything came back with a rush and she blinked. It had worked; she was back in her body! But for some reason she felt oddly uncomfortable in her body.
Spock smiled and leaned in to press his forehead against hers, "It seems that we succeeded Nyota. My Nyota." The words flowed of his lips, filled with passion and love. Nyota gave a small smile.
"It did. I miss you, Spock. Don't leave me, ever." She whispered, and suddenly was flooded by an overwhelming joy and love—and it wasn't her own.
"I will never leave you, Nyota." Spock's voice reverberated through her mind and she was enveloped in a warm embrace. Nyota smiled more broadly. It was true, they were connected. She could feel his every emotion, and he could feel hers. She could have whooped with joy, but she didn't.
"There is no need to hide your feelings." Spock stated, pulling her closer to him. Nyota blinked.
"I must not display emotions, Spock. It is illogical." Nyota answered automatically, and then suddenly realized that she was no longer in Spock's body. She was in her own body.
"Of course it is, which is why we all do it." Spock teased and Nyota laughed.
"You mister have to be logical." She joked back, feeling his amusement.
"How tiresome."
"It is only rational that you should be logical now that you are in your own Vulcan body." She replied, coyly. "I order you to be logical, Cadet."
Spock's amusement expressed itself through a small breath on her cheek, "I am the Professor, Cadet, not the other way around. I shall not take offence on this occasion however."
Nyota kissed him on the cheek, infused with euphoria and love. "It seems that our predicament had several positive effects. If we hadn't switched bodies I would never have fallen in love with you."
Spock smiled gently, "Same here. Also, it was quite informative. For example, I learned that your body reacts negatively to eating tempura." Spock teased.
Nyota raised an eyebrow, highly amused. "Yes, and I learned that you get flatulence if you eat green beans."
Spock gave her a look that clearly said, "I do not get flatulence. How insulting." Nyota suppressed a chuckle, and felt Spock's delight that he had given her cause to laugh.
"Hm. Indeed. I also became aware of the fact that both females and males of all species find you immensely attractive." Spock stated, rubbing his nosed against her cheek and pulling her closer.
Nyota hummed slightly. "Hmmmm….yes. Too bad I'm taken." She stated, closing her eyes and moving her face closer to Spock's. Spock's lips twitched up into another full grin. "Also, I learned that both females and males find you attractive." Nyota stated dryly. Spock's eyes widened and his mouth dropped into an 'oh' shape.
"What?" he asked, incredulous.
Nyota pursed her lips in a silent laugh. "Don't be so surprised, cutie pie." She told them, through their bond. Spock reeled back, horrified.
"Cutie pie?" He stated, in a horrified whisper. Nyota bit her lip to stop from laughing. "What part of me is cute?"
Nyota grinned cheekily, "Everything. Your nose." She kissed his nose. "Your lips." She placed a peck on his eager lips. She could feel his pleasure. "And your neck." She grinned and placed a small kiss on his adam's apple. Spock purred slightly. Nyota chuckled slightly.
"And, you purr." She stated, triumphantly. Spock leaned down and kissed her full on the mouth, a wide smile on his lips. Nyota leaned in further, loving the fact that she could explore his face with her real hands. When she pulled back she was breathless, and he was panting. He gave her a full hearted grin, which Nyota returned. She leaned against his chest, trailing her finger along his stomach in circles.
Spock leaned back slightly, his hand trailing up and down her spine delightfully. "I also learned that you mind works best after a cup of strong chai and a bowl of granola."
Nyota bit back a laugh, "Hm, and yours works best after a cup of strong Vulcan Spice Tea and a banana."
She could feel Spock's amusement resounding through him. "Indeed? Are sure it is not due to the fact that you are in my body that a banana…" He didn't finish because Nyota had slapped him gently on the chest.
"What? No! You pervert!" She laughed.
Spock gave her a confused expression, "I was merely pointing out that you may not have a broad enough knowledge of Vulcan foods to know what I breakfast foods are most nutritious for my body." Spock stated innocently.
Nyota stared at him with a dubious expression. "Suurree. So, tell me, what foods do you think make your mind work at its optimum capacity?"
Spock smiled gently, "A cup of strong Vulcan Spice Tea and an anoberry muffin."
Nyota stared at him. "Why an anoberry muffin?"
"It's my favorite." He stated cheekily.
Nyota grinned, "I thought you were going to say something like, 'it's got five percent more protein.'"
Spock raised an eyebrow, purring again. "Oh, that too of course." Nyota closed her eyes and leaned against his chest again, enjoying the fact that she could sense his amusement and love, and he could sense hers.
After a while she moved back and placed a small kiss on his lips. "Spock, as much as I would love to stay here, I need to go talk to Gaila. I miss her. And I think you need to mediate a bit." She stated after she had pulled back. It amused her to no end that he was having trouble returning to his usual state.
Spock sighed minutely, "You are right." He pulled back and slowly stood up. Nyota was delighted to note that she could still feel his love for her through their bond, even when not touching him. She could feel his resignation at the situation and irritation that he could no longer act foolishly. However, she knew he would adapt quickly. She stood up and stretched. She smiled at Spock and then slowly left the bedroom. She walked out of his room, excited about being able to interact with Gaila once more. She didn't notice that she adapted Spock's walk as she made her way towards her room, or that she was not smiling outwardly.
The first thing Spock did when Nyota left was contact T'Ping, his fiancé and break of their arrangement. He was officially bonded with Nyota and nothing was ever going to change that! The second thing he did was contact his mother and tell her he had bonded with a human female, to which his mother responded by spilling her tea and laughing. He was forced to explain everything that had occurred, which made her the only person in the universe besides himself and Nyota to know that he and Nyota had switched bodies. She had also told him she would be coming to visit as soon as possible, and had ended the communication with a huge smile on her face. The third thing he did was contact Nyota and inquired into whether or not she could meet him after dinner, to which she grinned and nodded.
After that he had a few hours to kill, and to his surprise he found he could not sit still. He couldn't wait to kiss Nyota again, and hold her in his arms! Maybe even something more, he mused happily. Spock contented himself with pacing around the couch, not conscious of the fact that he had a skip in his step and was grinning from ear to ear.
