A/N I am going to say sorry now because I have taken a while to update. School had been hell and I just really haven't wanted to write anything (You can all blame Lord of the fucking flies for that; worst book EVER) I also know I'm going to be busy up until xmas with stupid stuff like school, shopping, revising, not murdering my maths teacher etc… I also know there is going to be like a month long period after new year where I have a load of French exams, never mind bloody English! So im gonna try and write a few chapters, then upload them in january. Hopefully I can do at least another one after this before xmas, then do Christmas special.

But hey, heres the actual interesting bit.

Chess:

It was widely known and accepted that Spock and JT were the smartest two in the entire house. The fact that they didn't even go to school because it was too easy for them, backed that up.

It was also widely known that they played Chess, which was weird for two teenagers and especially weird for one of them to be the dare devil of the house. But nevertheless very Wednesday evening they would play in the downstairs lounge. While other kids were messing around, they would both sit in perfect concentration and play. Nobody really paid them much attention as they were almost invisible, but it really didn't matter because for them it was special.

For Spock, it felt like home, somewhere that he finally fit in, where he wasn't weird because he was genius. He could push his interlect while playing the fair headed boy and not need to hold back. He felt happy and accepted on this alien planet and behind he cool façade he held back a small smile.

He had never had that on Vulcan, he had never been accepted; despite surpassing all his peers, he was still looked down upon by adults. His younger mind had never understood the prejudice. He did not think of his human half as a disadavantge, so why did everyone else?

Actually that last statement was false, it was only everyone on Vulcan who has thought it a disadvantage. JT had thought it was 'cool' and asked if he had any super powers like they did in all those 21st century films. If he were not Vulcan, he would have rolled his eyes at this statement; instead he had kept his face neutral as he deflected the question.

He found it highly illogical to be so entranced at confused by a human. Most of the time he understood how they worked, but JT was different; he defied all expectations and stereotypes you would place on him, and if by some small chance you thought you had him worked; he would do something that messed it all up again. Spock had eventually given up trying to work out the puzzle that was JT and instead try to work out how he kept getting beaten by the illogical human boy.

For Kirk, it felt like he wasn't so useless, he could help someone fit in. He didn't feel like he was the weird kid who knew too much. The child, that was the cause of everything bad. His family had never wanted him, he wasn't there to know the great George Kirk and therefore could not grieve his absence, and his mother had always hated him for it.

He like Spock, he was quiet and caring in his own special I-have-no-emotions way, but JT knew he wasn't a computer (As Bones says). He also found it funny when he got that almost confused look on his faced when JT beat him. When he got a bit embarrassed he got this flush on his cheekbones and tips of his ears. Spock was one of his closest friends and he never wanted to let him go.

And so, the chess games continued, neither one spoke of what the other meant to them; so neither knew just how important they were to each other. Bones had tried to get it into JT's head that Spock liked him. Uhura had tried to do the same to Spock, but being the stubborn idiots they were; wouldn't listen to reason. They played in silence with JT laughing when he confused Spock with his game play.

Gailia still thought that they were going to get together. Uhura just shoved the latest Space-Vogue in her face to shut her up. She so did not want THAT mental image in her head.

A/N Uhura is not going to end up as a jealous bitch in this (I'm too nice for that). Also I have no idea if I will eventually get them together because I have no ides what I'm doing.

I NEED IDEAS FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER…. I FEEL MORE STUCK THAN ADAM IN THE CAGE (another SPN refrence guys. I'm so bad)

Thanks for getting the SPN refrence (it was the anniversary of when I started watching that I wrote that chapter) I am going to put more in because I can.

This was a short chapter I'm sorry but I got to go to a party tomorrow and help out at the local xmas fair. Then I have a controlled assessment in English which is impossible to do with the guy who sits behind me (he's called Diego and I feel so bad for the girl who sits next to him). But, after that I think I should be able to write more (does happy dance).

Beawolf's Pen: Yes you get the cookie! Thank you for all the wonderful reviews, you make me happy. I have not completely decided if Spock will leave first, because It would be quite nice for him to be last. (I will do my best not to rip your heart out and if I do I will put it back in with some nice happy fluffy stuff. All of the really sad stuff will come later, so your heart is safeish for now)

Minecraft Guardiansaiyan: yeah that is the plan, however I really want to finish the orphanage fic first. 100 chapter is pretty ambitious and that might take a few years and by then I will have left home (which is scary). I want to make this a nice long fic because you all seem to like it.

Hey BTW check out my other story 'the unusual skill of James T Kirk' on my profile.
