I don't own Star Trek
(Warning: One OC to get the story going. More will be added later...possibly. That's just the way I work.)
Uhura was a very logical woman. When Spock kissed her before he left to destroy the Romulan ship, she knew that it was the beginning of the end.
She had been right. As soon as he came back, Spock had put an end to the relationship.
"You are a beautiful woman, and a good student, but our relationship is illogical."
She was almost tempted to fight back. But she knew she had just as much of a chance getting Spock to agree to her ways, as Kirk had getting Spock to agree with his ways. So she had dismissed herself. And went straight to her captain's room.
Her captain could and would give her the attention she needed, even if he wasn't supposed to.

"All you need to do is go there, make sure she gets the pamphlet and leave. It will take you five minutes tops." Kirk said trying to convince his first officer to go.
"I still don't understand why I have to go, Captain. It would be just as logical to send someone else."
The captain sighed. He had been ordered not to explain the situation to his first, and he also could barely understand the mission himself. And as much as he liked annoying Star Fleet, this could effect Spock's life. "This girl grows up to be a very important women. If she doesn't get that pamphlet, she gets poisoned at the dinner she goes to later in life."
"I still don't understand how it is logical for me to go." Spock wondered if it had anything to do with getting him off the ship. He, as well as many others, was aware of Uhura and his Captain's relationship, but the two in the relationship were not aware of that.
If stressing the importance of the woman wasn't going to get Spock to go, Kirk knew what tactic would. "Well, they also said I would be just a capable as you on this mission so I guess I could go."
Spock refused to show it, but that comment had annoyed him, very much. "I will go, you should stay to command the ship. The mission will get done more efficiently if I do it."
Spock could see the annoyance in Kirk's face, and was glad his face didn't betray his feelings as profusely as his captain's face did.

He had beamed down almost right in front of the girl. This caused the girl to crash into him, bounce off, and bump into a bulletin board. However, she seemed to think that this was her fault, and proceeded to grab all of the flyers that had been dislocated from the board that had fallen off because of the collision.
Spock was glad to see her glance at the one in her hand and put it in her pocket. Though his face did not show this. As the girl stood up she got a good look at him. He had expected her to be slightly frightened of her appearance, but her eyes seemed to shine. "Was there a con or something?"
He simply stared at her.
"You cosplaying as an elf? When is the con? Or was it?"
Her way of speaking was almost as annoying as Uhara's or Kirk's. Her grammar was terrible.
"You still sore about me bumping into you? I am sorry...you wouldn't happen to know how to jump start a car, would you?"
This girl asked to much, but seeing as no one had alerted him that he had to come back, he assumed he had to also help her with this.
He was able to start the car, but when the girl tried, nothing happened. Spock decided the easiest thing to do would be drive her home.
As they made there way past many places, the car was quiet. As they made the turn past a church and to her house she said quietly. "He who angers you, controls you." He couldn't help but be curious.
"What?"
"Oh, I read it on the Church bill board. Quite interesting. Maybe true. I try not to get to mad, so I wouldn't totally know."
As they pulled in, she smiled. "Thank you. I don't exactly know where you came from, but I know I'm gonna remember your face."
As Spock walked away and was later beamed up, he wondered if it was a good thing that the girl would remember his face.
But more prominent in his mind was the wondering he was doing about the quote she had said earlier.
He who angers you, controls you.
And the more Spock thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense. Without showing it, like always, he realized that this needed to change before that certain person could get cocky about the fact that getting a rise out of his first also meant controlling him. And this itself made him angry.
