Here's a sweet Spirky chapter to bring this to a close :) Hope you like it.

After they had watched Bones disappear around the corner, Jim and Spock proceeded into Spock's quarters. The blast of warm air that hit their faces was incredibly welcoming and they instantly relaxed once the door closed behind them.

"You wanna take a shower, Spock?" Jim asked, his voice shaking slightly.

"Indeed. That would be most agreeable."

In Spock's bathroom they both peeled off their wet clothes. Before he turned on the shower, Spock stopped and just stared at Jim's body.

"What?" Jim asked, he was feeling a bit self-conscious under Spock's gaze but he would never admit it.

"You are so beautiful," the half Vulcan said simply.

"Aw, thanks, Spock. You too." Jim relished the delicate green blush that painted Spock's cheeks.

Spock turned on the shower and stepped in, Jim following. "Is the temperature satisfactory?" he asked.

"It's a little hotter than I'm used to, but I like it," Jim smiled.

Spock nodded. "I am accustomed to hot showers." As if to emphasize his words, the bathroom began to fill with thick steam.

Curiously, Jim began to scan through the various Vulcan soaps on Spock's shower shelf. Spock lovingly observed as the blonde human picked up a bottle of Vulcan shampoo. "May I?" he asked.

"Are you asking if you can wash my hair?" There was amusement in the Vulcan's voice.

"Um yeah."

"I believe I would find that most enjoyable."

Jim squeezed the shampoo into his palm and took in its distinct herbal scent. It didn't smell exactly like Spock, but it defiantly contributed to the Vulcan's intoxicating scent. The blonde rubbed his hands together and then ran them through Spock's silky black hair. "God, Spock? How is your hair so perfect?" he murmured.

Spock turned around to face Jim and ran a hand through his blonde locks which had gone curly from the steam. "My hair is standard for a Vulcan. Your hair though, is quite fascinating."

"And by fascinating you mean…?"

"Perfect."

Once they were warm, clean, and dry, Spock gave Jim one of his spare bathrobes and they went back into Spock's bedroom and sat on the bed.

"You know, you and Bones got to have your night cuddling in the cave and your time on the couch, and Bones and I had that kiss in the bathroom, but you and I haven't really gotten any alone time," Jim mused.

"Indeed, however, you did fall asleep in my arms when I carried you to the outpost."

"Yeah, that was great. But also kinda terrible. I was so paranoid you were gonna read my mind and see all of the dirty thoughts I was having about you," Jim admitted.

"I assure you, I was having similar thoughts, beloved."

"But I didn't know that at the time! All I knew was that you were great for cuddling up to. I could have stayed in your arms forever."

"I would have been content to hold you forever if it were physically possible," Spock outstretched his first two fingers to Jim who returned the Vulcan kiss. "I have admired you since the first day I met you. As illogical as it was, I was actually quite fascinated with your solution for the Kobiyashi Maru test. I was also rather intrigued and impressed that you were able to elicit an emotional reaction from me. Over these last few years, my admiration for you has turned into affection. Now that affection has turned into love."

Jim almost jumped at the intensity of the emotions that were flowing through their joined fingers. "Why didn't you ever tell me you felt this way before?"

"You are my superior. It did not seem proper to try to pursue a romantic relationship."

"But we're friends too, and in a friendship, just like in a relationship, we're equals." The captain scooted closer to his Vulcan lover and put a hand on his warm thigh.

"Also, I was afraid of losing your friendship if you did not return my feelings," the Spock admitted.

"Oh, Spock. I know exactly how you feel," said Jim empathetically and wrapped his arms around the half Vulcan before kissing him deeply.

After a few seconds of kissing, Jim brought them down onto the bed, pulled away from Spock and looked into his infinitely brown eyes. "I want to meld," Jim said.

Spock nodded and placed his hands on Jim's psi points. "My mind to your mind, my thoughts to your thoughts…"

They quickly and easily slipped into meld, sharing every loving thought they had ever had for each other. A while later, when they finally came out of the meld, Jim was pressed up close to Spock and his pants were a little too tight.

"I can't wait much longer," said Jim, hitching a leg over Spock's hip.

"You do not have to wait, love. I am yours," Spock assured him, pulling Jim even closer and taking in the scent of his hair.

"You don't think Bones will mind?"

"He did instruct you to get me warm…" said Spock with that mischievous undertone Jim loved.

"Yeah, he did!" Jim said with a happy smirk. "Spock, would you like me to warm you up?"

"Affirmative, Captain."

It was hours later when Leonard finally finished surgery. Not wanting to wake or disturb Spock and Jim, he used his medical override code to get into Spock's quarters. The lights were low, the air was warm, and it smelled pleasantly of incense. On the bed he spotted the naked forms of his lovers, sound asleep on top of the covers.

He sighed from exhaustion and stripped off his own clothes. He certainly wasn't going to sleep in his uniform and he was too damn tired to go all the way back to his quarters to get his a t-shirt. Besides, Spock's room was too hot for clothes.

He laid down on the bed next to Jim who awoke due to the shift in weight. The blonde opened his eyes and looked at the exhausted scowl on his lover's face. "Bones, what's wrong?" he asked groggily.

"I just spent five hours doing surgery. He almost didn't make it," said the doctor.

"But you saved him right?" Jim wrapped his arms around Bones's tense body.

"Yeah, I did."

"You're amazing," Jim told him and he began rubbing his shoulders. Bones moaned as Jim's skilled hands kneaded away his tension. "You've gotta relax."

"It's stressful," said Leonard, voice thick with relaxation.

"I know, honey, but it's alright. Spock and I are here for you now. And we always we will be."

"Yeah, I know ya will." Bones was almost asleep.

"I love you, Bones."

"Mmm love you too." With that said, the doctor nestled up against Jim and drifted into a peaceful sleep.

The End.

But fear not! There will be a SEQUEL! I haven't started it yet but I should have the first chapter up sometime next week. Will this sequel have MPreg you ask? Well you'll just have to read it and find out ;)

Oh and this story has 48 reviews at the time (Yay! Thank you all so much!) so let's see if we can get it to 50 or higher, that would make me so happy! Love you all!
