My T'hy'la (Spock x Reader)

Chapter 16

AN: The song is the one that Spock sings to you ;)

~Your POV~

That morning you exited my quarters and found an emotionless Spock, which was a relief considering your most recent events with him.

"Good morning, (P/N)." You smiled.

"(Y/N), may I request something?" He asked.

"Of course!"

"May we keep the pet names to ourselves and not use them in public. I do not want you to lose the respect of your fellow officers, or for me to lose the respect of my own. Quite a few of them are quite immature."

"Yeah, that's fine. If you're not comfortable with that, then I understand."

"Thank you, (Y/N). It is highly appreciated."

"It's no problem, now let's head to work." You reminded him as you began to lead the two of you.

There was a silence between the two of you, but it wasn't an awkward one, it was the opposite. It was a calm, peaceful, comfortable silence of just enjoying each other's company, nothing needed to be said. After a bit, he dropped you off at your workplace and said his goodbyes. You entered your cubicle and were instantly greeted by (B/F/N) with a hug.

"(Y/N)! I've missed you! How was the ceremony?!" She asked excitedly.

"It went well, actually! The Captain is moving Spock and I into our own quarters in the passenger deck, we're packing tonight, actually." You replied.

"Really? Do you need help?"

"Yeah, that would quicken things up a bit."

"Well then I'll walk to your quarters with you and Spock, then!"

"Alright, that sounds good!" You replied. The two of you chatted while working making the day pass by rather quickly and once the two of you clocked out, you found Spock waiting for you.

"Hello, (Y/N) and Lieutenant (B/F/L/N)." He greeted the two of you.

"Hi, Spock! You don't mind if (B/F/N) joined us, do you? She's going to help me pack." You explained.

"I do not mind at all, (Y/N)." He replied.

"You two are kind of a cute couple!" Your friend smirked, making you blush.

"Were we not in the first place, Lieutenant?" He sassed back while tilting his head slightly. Her face went pale at this as you held back a chuckle.

"I didn't say that, Commander." She muttered out.

"Don't worry, he's just joking with you." You smiled.

"Was I now?" Spock replied with a small gleam of mischief in his eyes, which you laughed at.

"Come on now, we have plenty of packing to do." You teased.

"Yes, it would be most efficient if we went now instead of wasting time." He noted. The three of you went to the quarters and split off, Spock going to his own quarters, and you and your friend going into yours.

"So, how are we going to pack things?" She asked looking at your stuff.

"Well, I don't have that much since everything fits into my luggage" You reply.

"But what about your books and art supplies?"

"Most of my books are digital and I typically replicated my art supplies so I really don't have much to pack outside of my sketchbooks and finished paintings."
