A/N: Filling prompt on st_xi_kink: "High School AU. But instead of them all being students, the crew are all the teachers. It is the craziest fucking high school you have ever seen. Kirk/Spock (bottom!Spock if sex [like a quickie in the classroom]) you can add pairings with the others if you want too."

Yes, it will be K/S eventually. "Eventually" being a key word. This is probably not going to be that short. To put it another way, it will probably be long.

Enterprise High, one of the most renowned and prestigious high schools was in a flurry of activity as it prepared for the new school year. Incoming students had their papers processed, classes were arranged, and teachers were hired and organized. Though everybody was busy, it was also a well known routine by the senior staff.

Sitting in the principal's office was an older gentleman typing away at a PADD. He was interrupted by a soft knock on the door.

"Enter."

The door opened and shut with a click. Principal Pike looked up from his work to greet his expected visitor.

"Prompt as usual, Mr. Spock." he said with a small grin.

Mister Spock stood stiffly in front of the office doors and regarded the principal with a slight nod of his head. Pike stood up and motioned to the chairs in front of his desk.

"Please have a seat."

He made no sound as he stepped over and sat just as straight and stiff as he stood. Just watching him made Pike's back ache, but he pushed away the thought by resuming his seat and pulling up Spock's file on his PADD.

"It's a pleasure and honor to have you as a teacher here, Mr. Spock. I trust your trip over went well?" asked Pike, even though he was certain of the answer he would receive.

"The trip occurred with no incidents and I have arrived at the pre-determined time."

Spock's voice was devoid of inflection and his expression was just as blank. Pike cracked a wry grin. He was definitely going to be an interesting teacher. While there were multiple teachers from different worlds, this was the first time a Vulcan deigned to teach at any educational establishment outside of the Vulcan schools and even more so, the Vulcan Academy of Science.

"Glad to hear it." Pike replied. Even though he knew Spock's file well, it was still a convenient distraction from trying to make small talk with him. "So, I'm going to assume you already have everything prepared for work and for your personal affairs?"

"Affirmative." he robotically replied.

"Good. Well, I know it would be pointless for me to lecture you and explain all the rules since you probably know them better than anybody here."

Though he knew it would not be reciprocated, Pike still shot Spock a small, amused grin. In turn, Spock merely blinked once and remained silent and motionless. Shaking his head in a resigned manner, Pike's grin softened into a smaller smile.

"That said, welcome to Enterprise High, Mr. Spock."

He stood up as he spoke and held out his hand. Spock responded similarly and shook the offered hand once before quickly placing it back at his side.

"Thank you, Principle Pike."

"School's not started yet, Spock. How many times have I told you that you don't have to be so formal in private?" Pike asked. When he saw Spock open his mouth, he quickly interrupted, "And I don't actually need a number count, you know."

Spock slightly inclined his head and agreed to the request.

"Of course, Christopher."

The small concession caused Pike to nod his head in approval. He watched as Spock prepared to leave, but was surprised when the door suddenly swung open. Were it not for his quick reflexes, Spock would have been clobbered by the door slamming into his face. Pike had to suppress a small groan when he saw who it was. He had hoped he would be able to wean Spock into interacting with the intruder, but it now appeared his plans just went to pot.

"Hey, Pike! I heard the new guy just got in." the stranger exclaimed excitedly.

Fairly certain this was not going to go well; Pike resigned himself to fate and was glad that he was at least present to keep things from getting out of hand. Gesturing towards the stranger, Pike calmly and professionally said,

"Mr. Spock, may I present to you, Mr. James T. Kirk."

A/N: A short prologue to get things rolling. More on the way. And the next chapters will be longer...much longer. I am proud I have done a chapter under 1000 words. Reviews and comments are appreciated and welcome. Please enjoy.

Peace and long life,
