Scotty x Uhura - One Call Away pt 2

It had been three days since Scotty told Uhura that he would be there for her. He had barely seen her since then and he wanted to see her again. Ever since he had last seen her, he had begun to realize that he started to like her. A lot.

He tried to focus on his work, but she kept popping up in his head. It didn't help that that Scotty was surrounded by women in red shirts. He had mistaken a few of the women for Uhura, but he had caught himself before he could call them that.

Finally, Scotty had a break. He immediately headed for the bridge, hoping Uhura was there. He ran into Uhura on the way there. She immediately smiled when she saw him. Uhura walked up to the engineer.

"Hey, Scotty. How are you?" She asked, looking at him with kind eyes.

"I'm great. How are you?" Scotty asked, still worried about Uhura.

"I'm feeling way better now." Uhura noticed Scotty's expression and changed the subject. "Is there something wrong, Scotty?" Uhura asked, gently grabbing his arm.

"Yes." Scotty took both of Uhura's hands in his and pulled her closer. "I have come to realize that I love you with all my heart, and can't bear to see you hurt. Would you please do me the honor of being my girl?"

Scotty looked up at Uhura. She had a large smile on her face, her eyes crinkling around for the edges.

"Yes, Scotty, I will," Uhura said.

"Well in that case," Scotty said as he pulled her arms around her neck. Uhura laughed and pulled him down to kiss him. He instantly kissed back and wrapped his arms around her waist. They pulled back a moment later and Scotty rested his head on her forehead.

"I love ye, lassie," Scotty murmured.

"I love you too," Uhura replied in a whisper, giving him another kiss.
