(A/n: so juicy stuff happens in this chapter, hope you enjoy it. Tell me what you think about it after reading. Thank you ☺️)

Today is the day, the day I start a new journey, to explore the most amazing thing, space.

I watch as some of the 'USS Enterprise' crew and hopefully my new friends board the shuttle. I say my last goodbyes to Daylene, hugging her tightly. "Im gonna miss ya" she says ruffing my hair as we giggle, "i'm gonna miss you too ya idiot". She rests her forehead on mine as we close our eyes, "you better stay in contact, don't come back missing any limbs and bring me back something", "will do" i respond as we start giggling again.

We separate as I run into the boarding line, waving to Daylene. I get the clearance to board after giving my name to the guy cheeking us off.

I walk into the shuttle seeing it half full with everyone talking to each other.

I walk to a set of empty three seated seats sitting at the back next to the window.

I begin to wait as I watch the empty seats at the front fill leaving the two seats next to me and a row in front of me.

Looking out the window I see people of all species walking around the area, I begin to name the exact species they are as I look at them until I feel something warm on my shoulder.

Swing my head around readying myself to fight as instinct, but was met with a face I wasn't expecting.

"Jim" I say letting out a breath, he looks at me confused but in a split second I get up hitting him, "YOU.SCARED.THE.HELL.OUT.OF.ME!" I yell, still hitting him after every word as he laughs.

I stop letting my arms fall as I start to giggle a little too. "Look what you did, you got everyone looking at us now" he says while laughing still, making me blush from embarrassment.

"Don't worry guys, it's all fun and games" Jim announced, coursing everyone to continue chatting amongst one another.

We sit down at the same time while elbowing each other and pulling faces at each other.

"Captain, Miss Y/n what are you doing?" An emotionless voice speaks. I shoot my head up to see Spock standing at the seating path. "Nothing, just teasing each other". Spock raises an eye brow, clearly showing that his trying to figure out why.

After a few seconds of watching Spock think which amused us, Spock pressed something on the side of the seats in front of us making the seats facing us. 'Wait you can do that?!' A shocked expression builds on my face as Spock sits down in front of me.

I pull myself out of my shock trans as 3 familiar faces appear in my site. Uhura, McCoy and Scott.
Uhura sits next to Spock, Scott next to Uhura and McCoy next to Jim who's beside me.

We begin to chat for a while waiting for the rest of the seats to be filled. After a few minutes we begin to feel the ground shaking causing my anxiety as I dig my nails into the arm rest while dinting it, this court Spock and Jim's attention from 2 different reasons.

Spock heard my heavy breathing, the bending of the metal from my nails and jittering knee tapping on the metal floor. Jim realised from the constant shaking of the seats and from Spock staring at me. I keep my head down, eyes wide open as I continue. I could feel their stare coursing my anxiety worse and then, we lift off the ground. I grip the arm rest harder as I try to concentrate on the sweat dripping down my cheek.

And without realising Spock was kneeling down in front of me with a hand on my cheek lifting my head to look him in the eyes, his gorgeous eyes. "Y/n, just keep your eyes on mine. Look at the small details while focusing on your breathing". His voice spoke softly as he slowly moves his hand further towards my neck.

I become at ease thinking we'll stay like this forever but soon as i think that the feeling of his hand was gone as he took his seat once again.

I realise my body is no longer shaking as I lay back into my chair feeling that we are now in space, looking up I see everyone looking at Spock and I with shock, well not everyone, Uhura had an expression of anger and sadness. I look at her with shock as she stares me down, she stands up looking Spock down as we watch the sense. "What was that?! Since when do you do that? You don't even do anything close to what you just did to me?!". Spock looks up at her, "I sensed she was having a panic attack, thinking that if I left her it would be the wrong thing to do, especially with her mental health that she mentioned. Even though Vulcans aren't affectionate towards other species, we try to comfort other Vlcans when in distress, or what you call, 'a thing we do'".

'H-he lied!, well he twisted his answer but still'. She turns to me looking for an answer that wasn't asked, "y-yes, its true we help each other in anyway" i say a little confused with what i was saying.

I look over at Spock after answering, seeing relief in his eyes. Uhura looks over at him as she calms down, she sits down lazyly with her head down, and a face of embarrassment and sadness. "I'm sorry, I apologise for bursting out. It was wrong of me to do that, after all I don't I still don't know a lot about your culture. Please forgive me", Uhura spoke with such sincerity that I felt guilty for lying. "I forgive you" Spock spoke up, "same here, after all it's something we don't talk about a lot" I say twist a lie again.

Everyone slowly but surely starts chatting again as I stare out into space, literally. We reach the platform and watch everyone get off, once it's only us we get up and leave the shuttle to pick up more crew members.

Once again we get our names marked off. I enter the hall of the Enterprise, looking at all the interior while waiting for the others. "Wait until you see the rest of the ship" Jim says, nudging me. "I can't wait" I say with a smile coursing stares from other crew members. "Spock" Jim says, calling him over. "The rest of you go to your stations" they were told, leaving the three of us as the hall became empty.

"Now Mr. Spock for the few hours before we leave can you please escort Y/n to her room and show her where she's being Stationed, the cafeteria and so on?". "Yes Captain", "great, see you guys soon" Jim says patting Spock on the shoulder and leaves us.

"Where to first?" He asks. "How about the cafeteria, my station then my room?" I ask smiling. "excellent" was all he said as he started walking.

'I have to ask about what happened earlier, why he did that and why he lied. I have to know'
