        "Spock, how could you be working on a day like this?" I pressed.

        "I simply found some work that I had need to finish. Procrastinating is highly illogical; what I need to do comes before what I desire to do," he replied bluntly, never even glancing away from his PADD.

        "Aw, you can't be that half-hearted," I sighed. "Well, I got you something. Happy birthday!" I handed him the (rather large) blue box I was holding in my hands. He opened the lid to find the gift I had finished making the day before.

        As he pulled it out, I swore I could hear the smallest of gasps escape his lips. "It is...beautiful. Did you create it yourself?"

        "My own paint and brushes," I replied somewhat proudly...quite proudly, actually...

        He examined this unique picture. I had made it to represent my Vulcan boyfriend; it was like the yin-yang symbol, but one half being Vulcan and another Earth to represent his two halves. The background was dark gray, as it reminded me of struggle, specifically a dilemma.

        "I love it, Jim. Almost as much as I love you." He closed the distance between us in a passionate, yet very human kiss.

        When we finally broke apart, the tips of his ears turned bright green. "I really should get back to work."
