A Vulcan’s Love

Chapter 10: Two hearts, One soul.
“Ensign Taylor personal log. Stardate 57847.9. It has been over a week since our confrontation with the Romulan warbird and so far there have been no more reports of further attacks. While this makes some people believe that they are planning for something on a larger scale, I prefer to be the optimist, hoping that they will rethink their actions. Either way they are one ship down, and that's something that may come in handy later.” I paused and sat down on my sofa, “Of a more personal note, tonight I will be taking T'Luk out to the holodeck, in what would be our first date. It seems silly that it's a first date, as today is actually two days short of our one-month anniversary. One month ago I never knew T'Luk existed. Today I can't imagine my life without him.” I smiled to myself, “I spent most of yesterday carefully planning for tonight, so I'm sure he will be...satisfied to say the least. Tonight is my way of expressing my love toward him. In a way that I'm sure he'll understand.” I smiled again, “End of personal log.”
The computer chirped it's response as it saved my message.
“Computer time.” I said aloud.
“The time is 08:13.” Replied the voice.
“Where is Ensign T'Luk?”
“Ensign T'Luk is on deck 7, section 3.”
My quarters were located in deck 7, section 3 so I assumed that he was coming here. I walked over to my door, but stood at a distance so it didn't open. I waited for a couple of seconds before I heard the door chime and then I stepped forward, revealing a somewhat startled T'Luk. Well, he raised an eyebrow at me.
“Good morning Kai.” He said. Oh he looked so cute and handsome just standing there. I quickly pulled him into my quarters and kissed him, not even waiting for the door to slide shut.
I pulled back, “Morning babes.” I grinned at him, “How are you? Sleep well?”
“I am fine, and yes, my sleep was satisfactory.”
“Satisfactory?” I giggled.
“Indeed.” He paused, “I missed your presence.”
'Awww, isn't he the sweetest thing ever?' I thought to myself, before talking aloud, “I missed you too.”
He nodded, “Are you ready for breakfast?”
“Yep, but I'll have to meet you there, I have to see the Captain about something.” I said.
T'Luk remained quiet and stared at me, awaiting an explanation.
I smiled, “I've already told you, I'm not telling you anything about tonight. It's a surprise.”
“Naturally.” He replied.
“Besides, it would be illogical to enlighten you at this present point in time.” I pointed out.
He raised an eyebrow.
I grinned at him as I walked over to my table and picked up my PADD before walking back to him, “Come on, lets get you some breakfast.” I said, leading him out of the door. We stepped outside my quarters and I turned to him, “You can go on up to the mess, I'll be there in a little while.”
“Indeed, I will see you in a while.” He replied.
“Ok, bye babes.” I said before I turned and headed toward the turbolifts closest to the bridge. I looked down at the PADD in my hand. All I needed was the Captain to approve my request and then tonight was ours. Everything would be set. I turned down a corridor and noticed Commander Caves walking slightly ahead of me. I watched him for a moment before I figured that he could probably allow my request too. I sped up my walking to catch up to him.
“Commander.” I said aloud, causing him to turn around.
“Good morning Ensign Taylor. How are you this morning?” He asked while walking alongside me.
“Good morning. I'm very good thank you Sir, and yourself?” I replied.
“I'm fine thank you. Is there something I can do for you?”
I briefly looked around the sparsely populated corridor, “Actually Sir, there is. It's of a personal nature.”
He looked over to an alcove in the corridor and gestured toward it with his head. I followed him over into the alcove, out of the way of anyone passing by.
He faced me, “What's the problem Ensign?”
“I'd like to know if you could grant me a certain request.” I said while issuing the PADD.
“Let's see what you have here.” He replied, taking the PADD from my hand.
His expression started as a serious look as he began reading, before it quickly softened and finally became a smile, “May I ask as to the occasion?” He asked, looking at me.
“It's for a date I have on the holodeck.”
He smiled again, “Am I to assume that Ensign T'Luk is the lucky man?”
I stared at him in surprise, “How did you know?”
He laughed, “What do you think we talk about in the senior staff briefings?”
It took a second for that to sink in before my eyes widened, causing him to laugh again.
He pressed his thumbprint to the PADD, accepting my request, “Drink it safely Ensign.”
I took the PADD from him, “I will Sir, thank you.”
He grinned at me before he turned around the corridor and out of sight.

The time had just passed 18:07. T'Luk and I had finished our shift an hour ago and were now in my quarters, about to get ready for our evening tonight. I had booked a two-hour slot for the holodeck, which began at 19:00, so we had a little under an hour before we had to go. We spent that hour getting ready and perfecting our looks.
“Do I look satisfactory?” came T'Luk's voice. I turned around to see him walking out of the bathroom wearing the human clothes that I had replicated for him. He was wearing a plain light blue cotton t-shirt and a very sexy looking pair of black jeans. On his feet he was wearing a pair of white trainers. I stared at him with my mouth slightly agape, he looked really hot. “Kai?” He said, bringing me back into reality.
“Huh? Oh.” I said before I walked up to him, “You look really hot babes. Much better than satisfactory.”
“Thank you.” He paused, “Are you going to get dressed now?”
I couldn't take my eyes off him, he looked so good in Human clothes, “Yeah, I'm going now.” I said, as I carried my stuff to the bathroom. We didn't have any problems with getting changed in front of each other, but I wanted us to see the finished product.
Several minutes later, I emerged from the bathroom. T'Luk looked up from my sofa and watched me as I stood in front of him before I spun around, “How do I look?”
His eyes drifted up to my face, “You look very handsome.”
I blushed, “Really?”
He stood up, “Yes, you do.”
I had chosen to wear a light pink cotton t-shirt and a faded pair of blue jeans. On my feet I was also wearing some white trainers. I had also re straightened my hair and applied a special solution which gave a Vulcan style shine to it.
We chatted for a while longer, talking about our attire, before I tried to take the next step that I had planned. I was trying to persuade T'Luk to do something a little...daring for a Vulcan.
“I think you'll like it.”
He paused, “Show me.”
I walked over to the replicator and selected the item I needed. The machine hummed and presented me with a small white tube. I walked back over to T'Luk and stood next to him, before I unscrewed the lid and squirted a generous amount of the clear, thick liquid onto my hand.
“Is that it?”
I giggled, “Yes.”
He reached out with a finger and dabbed at the foreign substance, “I am not sure Kai.”
“Look, we'll try it, but if it doesn't work, we can wash it out. Ok?”
He thought for a moment before he nodded, “I am ready.”
“Good.”
We walked over to the bathroom, but I was sure to have him face away from the mirror as I didn't want him to see it halfway through. I told T'Luk to wet his hair a bit while I emptied the remains of the tube into my other hand before I rubbed them together, spreading the hair gel to my fingers. T'Luk stood up and faced me as I slowly reached up and ran my hands through his, slightly damp and silky hair. “How does that feel?” I asked.
“It is a curious sensation.”
“In a bad way?” I asked.
“No. It is quite soothing.” He replied.
Once I had spread enough gel through his hair, I began to ruffle it up, removing any trace of it's 'logical Vulcan' look.
He noticed my smile, “What?”
“It looks good.”
He didn't reply, and instead stood there facing me, watching my eyes intently.
I giggled, “I'll be done in a minute.”
I flattened down the sides, but spiked up the front, top and back of his hair. I left his curved, pointy sideburns as they were, but ruffled them slightly to make them fit in with the rest of his hair. Once I was satisfied with what I had done, I stood back and smiled.
“There you go.”
He turned and faced the mirror in the bathroom. He raised an eyebrow at his reflection, “Intriguing.”
I stood behind him and stared ahead, “You like it?”
He paused for a moment, “It does have a certain aesthetic quality.”
I smiled, “I'll take that as a yes.” I said as I began to wash the gel off my hands.
“It is not very logical.”
I stood up and faced him, taking the chance to look him over. He looked really good. Much better than I could have ever imagined in my head. I felt my heart skip a beat when I saw him standing there. I wanted to bury my face in his chest and wrap my arms around him, never to let go.
“It's very logical.” I replied.
“I will keep it as it is, but only for tonight.”
“You have a deal.”
I led us back into the living room and checked the time.
“The time is 17:48 hours.” Replied the computer.
I faced T'Luk, “We'd better go in a minute. Are you ready?”
He nodded, “Yes. Are you?”
“Almost.” I replied. The next thing I wanted to do was something that I had read about but had only seen a couple of times. I looked up at T'Luk. I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I done it wrong, but I'm sure there wasn't much to it.
I stood about half a metre in front of him and extended my right hand out vertically with my first two fingers pointing out, as if mimicking the shape of an old Earth gun. I looked up at his face. T'Luk looked at me before he glanced downwards and copied my actions with his right hand. He then placed his two fingers against mine softly. I stared into his eyes as the moment passed between us. From a Vulcan point of view we were performing an intimate act, similar to that of kissing. I hadn't done this with T'Luk before, so I thought he would appreciate the gesture. He slowly glided his fingers across mine, back and forth. I copied his actions as we stared at each other. After what seemed a few seconds, he removed his fingers and I followed suit.
“Did I do it right?” I asked after a coupled of seconds.
He nodded, “Yes, you did.” He paused, ”I love you.”
I smiled, “I love you too. Shall we go?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, just one more thing.” I said before I ran over to the replicator. I pressed in what I wanted and retrieved two informal looking jumpers and two black leather jackets. I handed a dark blue jumper to T'Luk while I wore a black one. I then handed him one of the leather jackets, “It might be a little cold without these.”
“I see.” He replied.
Once we were now fully dressed, I held out my arm to him. T'Luk reached out and hooked his arm around mine. I grinned at him as we walked forward and headed out of the door. We had to go to holodeck 2, which was two decks down. We turned out of my quarters and walked down the corridor. Everyone we passed smiled at us before they looked attentively at T'Luk's hair.
“See? Everyone's loving your new style.”
“It appears so.” He replied.
We rode the turbolift down the two decks before we made our way over to the holodeck. It felt really good to be strutting around the ship with my boyfriend holding my arm. It was as though I was showing him off to the crew, I'm sure my expression read, 'Look who I'm dating!'. We rounded the corner that led to the room and came face to face with all the guys: H'Jan, Casey, Alex, Trey and finally Raylis.
“Nice hair T'Luk!” Shouted Alex as the others clapped.
I began to blush, “What are you guys doing here?” I asked.
“We came to wish you a pleasant evening.” Said Raylis.
I watched as H'Jan pulled out something from behind his back, “Smile!” He called out before he quickly took a holophoto of us, the flash blinding me.
“Yeah, just behave yourselves!” Laughed Casey.
“Oh he will, for the moment anyway.” Said Trey knowingly. Damn telepaths.
“I'll try. Thanks for coming down guys.” I said.
T'Luk nodded in agreement, “Yes, your attendance is very much appreciated.” He remarked, silencing us.
I turned to him, surprised, “Was that a sarcastic remark?”
He turned to the others, “Indeed. Was it not humorous?”
We were silent for a moment before we started to break out in hysterics. I clutched my stomach with my spare hand. I really didn't expect that from him. Another flash emanated from H'Jan's camera, catching us in the moment. 'I must get a copy of that from H'Jan later.' I remember thinking. We managed to calm ourselves down after a few minutes of laughter.
“You're too funny T'Luk.” Giggled Alex.
“Yeah, he is.” I said as I pulled him closer.
“Anyway, you guys better go. We don't want to spoil anything.” Said Casey.
I smiled and turned to T'Luk, “Let's go.” I tugged him towards the doors which opened in front of us. “See you guys later.” I said.
“Yeah bye.”
“Have fun.”
