Enjoy! Keeps Us Together, Chapter 1 "Dinner Parties" Kirk stood near the head of the table in the captain’s dining room, watching as the table was set before him for four people, including himself. This was not an official dinner, but a private matter between both Kirks and Spocks. It was time to set some restrictions on interference, because if there was anything Kirk didn’t want, it was interference with how he ran the Enterprise. His future self may be here now but he could never take the younger captain’s place, not without a fight. The doors hissed and Spock stepped into the room, standing before the door. The last of the crew left the room to the captain and his first officer, sensing the tension in the air. Spock stood silently, appraising the table. “You are bothered by your other self’s presence.” “Do you want to know what they’ve been doing for the past couple of hours? Because I have a front row view of it thanks to my being mated to that other Spock.” “Now you know why fidelity is important to a Vulcan.” “It’s not funny!” Kirk growled, glaring at his first officer. “I can hear his mind calling out to my other self… and it’s hard to listen to.” “Why? They are T’hy’la. It is logical that they would seek to reconfirm their joining after being separated for so long.” “Spock… I’m MATED to him. It hurts that he desires another.” “The one he desires is you. An older you… but you.” “Damnit, Spock… you’re not getting what I mean…” Kirk cursed quietly. Awareness filled him of his mate’s movements. “They are coming.’ The door hissed open and the younger two were joined by the older pair. “I still can’t believe I was ever so young…” The admiral mused as the captain directed his guests to the table. “Indeed you were and just as bold.” Spock Prime replied, taking his place at the table opposite of Kirk. Kirk’s own Spock sat at his right and the admiral at his left. “Here’s to new friendships.” The captain raised a toast. The others followed suit. Dinner commenced. ^.~ “Spock tells me that you lost your father on the day you were born. I’m sorry to hear that.” The older Jim smiled sympathetically to his younger self. “I never knew him. I spent my whole life in his shadow and I never knew the man.” Kirk replied, taking a drink. “What about your mother?” Jim queried. “She abandoned me for Starfleet. I raised myself.” Kirk replied somewhat harshly. “There are many differences between the two of you.” Spock Prime stated carefully. “You are essentially the same man but with many different life experiences.’ “Yes… well I got to meet my Spock sooner than you met yours. And we’re already lovers.” Kirk pointed out almost viciously. Spock at his right nearly spit out his drink. “Captain! I must point out that that is not proper conversation for the dinner table!” The response came quickly. It seemed Spock Prime gave an amused chuckle… if he was capable of such a thing. Years of being the admiral’s T’hy’la had brought out his human side. Jim stared at his younger self, wide eyed. “Really? When I was your age women were all over me. Of course Spock told me about your role in his pon farr. I am grateful that you could stand in for me.” “Yes… stand in.” Kirk replied, casting Spock Prime a hurt look. “Our lives are very different, Admiral. I mean I appreciate women and all but… there’s something to be said for finding someone who will never abandon you.” Balling his fists on his lap, he stared down at his dinner. Spock watched his T’hy’la, keenly aware of all the emotions that his captain faced. Gently he stretched out his left leg to touch Kirk’s. Kirk blinked a few times. “Don’t… don’t listen to me. Of course I’m happy that Spock Prime has been reunited with his T’hy’la. I hope you two have a long, happy life together.” “Thank you, Jim.” Spock Prime stated quietly. “And now onto the matter of how you came to be here…” ^.~ Spock lingered in Kirk’s doorway as he watched his captain get ready for bed. His eyes were on the man before him who seemed to be his happy self but inside lurked darkness. “Are you planning on hovering?” Kirk asked as he threw his black shirt on the chair. “You need me tonight.” It wasn’t a question. Spock always seemed to know when Kirk craved intimacy. On those nights he would spend the night in his T’hy’la’s bed. Kirk looked defeated and sat down on the bed. “It’s not fair.” Spoken in a soft voice, he stared down at his hands. Spock approached the bed, taking Kirk’s fingers to rub his own against. “What is not fair?” “I feel like… something important is being taken away from me.” “They are bondmated. That link between them is the most important they will experience in their lifetime, even through death. Their souls, minds, bodies are linked. If one is killed the other feels it like a great emptiness within them. They become incomplete.” “Spock…” Kirk whispered, resting his head against Spock’s belly. “You experienced that for a time.” “I felt… so loved. So WANTED.” Kirk pulled his hands away and rested them on Spock’s hips. “I want that again.” “You wish to join with me?” Spock asked quietly. “I want to be as close to you as I was to him.” “He is me…” Spock replied. “And you are, T’hy’la.” “You don’t love me.” Spock froze, his hands resting on Kirk’s shoulders. The door chimed. “Come in.” Kirk responded automatically, pulling away from Spock to give some semblance of order. “Ambassador Spock.” “Forgive my intrusion.” A small smile touched the older Vulcan’s lips. “You knew it was me.” “Of course I did.” Kirk replied. “I can still feel you in my mind.” “Then you know that I am truly sorry that I may have hurt you. You are loved, T’hy’la… very deeply. I need you to understand this. You have not been abandoned.” A low growl filled the room. Surprised Kirk looked up at the younger Vulcan. Was Spock really… growling? The only other time Kirk had heard such a thing was when Spock lost control after they first met and nearly killed him. “Fascinating…” Spock Prime breathed his eyes on his younger self. “Brush your fingers with his, Jim.” Kirk obeyed, lightly caressing Spock’s fingers with two of his own. The affect was immediate. Spock seemed to come back into his usual self control. His fingers clasped the fingers that caressed him. “How often have you two been intimate?” “You mean in the past year since you had him train me?” Jim queried. “That is none of your business.” Spock replied. “Spock…” Kirk lightly admonished. “You know me ambassador.” “I do.” Spock Prime sighed. “In my own lifetime I was celibate so my first pon farr came at the normal time.” “Pon farr?” Kirk breathed. His memories of the last pon farr ritual he had participated in still clung to him, wondering how Spock would be different than Spock Prime. There was no doubt in his mind that he loved Spock no matter what form he was in but the ritual had been insane… and rough. So much unbridled passion had overwhelmed him and made him aware of how different the two Spocks truly were. Spock eyed his older self. “You are needlessly worrying my T’hy’la.” “We will be at New Vulcan soon to drop off myself and the other Jim. I will inform our father of the coming ritual. He may not be prepared for it to come so soon. There is the possibility that he may have a female picked out for you. You will need to make a choice, Spock. Jim… I’ll stand up as a member of your family if you are chosen.” Kirk looked away. Spock Prime’s words made it sound like there was a real possibility that Spock may chose a Vulcan female over himself. That idea had never really occurred to him. Spock Prime brushed his mind against his younger mate. ‘Have faith. You will not be abandoned, Jim. I will be there for you. I love you.’ Spock was losing his patience. His youth and lack of experience made it difficult to have patience with his older self, especially when it concerned his Jim. “Please go. You have already hurt my T’hy’la enough for the night.” “Is he yours?” The elder Vulcan regarded his younger self. “He is mine.” Spock replied. Spock Prime cast a small smile. “Good. Remember that. Goodnight.” Spock didn’t stand down from his agitation until the other Vulcan was out the door. Finally he turned to his captain. “My self control will be compromised until after the coming ritual.” “I know.” Kirk responded. “I need to ask for time off to prepare myself. I do not wish for the crew to know.” Kirk nodded. “We are close enough to the colony that we can schedule shore leave. We can say you are going to visit your father.” Spock nodded. “I’ll take some time for myself to go into isolation.” Kirk whispered. “But I think Nyota will know.” Spock nodded again. “We are still friends. She knows about my other self and what he told me about you and of what we are meant to be. She accepts it.” “Hey… maybe she could be the mother of our child.” Kirk mused, trying to lighten the mood. “That is not even funny.” Spock replied, growing silent and thoughtful. “I know you’re expected to procreate.” “We will deal with that later. I am not ready for offspring.” Kirk stood, wrapping his arms around Spock. “I love you.” A chaste kiss on the cheek and warm hands caressing cool skin enfolded the Vulcan. Spock nuzzled against Kirk’s neck for a moment, perfectly content and whole. “We must prepare.” “I think I’m ready for everything.” “Including an audience to our mating?” Kirk took a step back, eyes wide. “You never said that!” “Our family will be present to witness the union and to protect us from predators while we are at our most vulnerable.” Spock stepped closer to resume nuzzling. “Only your people would think that fucking in a desert is a great idea.” It seemed a small chuckle escaped the Vulcan. --TBCWhile AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
