Summary
Kirk's chair scraped against the polished metal floor as he stood abruptly, the sound harsh and jarring in the medical bay's controlled quiet. "I need some air," he said, his voice carefully controlled in a way that fooled absolutely no one present. The words came out too flat, too measured, the kind of tone someone used when they were barely holding themselves together.
He was halfway to the door, moving with the quick, purposeful stride of someone fleeing a disaster, when Spock's voice stopped him.
"Captain."
Kirk turned, and Spock was struck by the raw, desperate hope that flashed across his features — like a man dying of thirst who'd glimpsed what might be water on the horizon. For just a moment, his careful composure cracked entirely, and Spock could see the depths of his pain, his love, his desperate need for some sign that the man he'd bonded with still existed somewhere beneath the surface of amnesia.
