A prequel…

Jim couldn’t remember feeling this bad ever. Mommy must have been worried too, because despite the fact Mommy’s new boyfriend, Frank, didn’t want to be bothered taking Jim to the hospital, because he told Jim’s mommy that Jim was just faking it for attention. That Jim didn’t want Mommy going out with Frank.

ā€œIf you had waited too much longer, I’m not sure he would have made it,ā€ the nice doctor said to Mommy. Jim heard them talking near his bed, trying to be quiet. ā€œHe’s very sick.ā€

They left him alone then, to go talk some more, Jim guessed.

But then a man stood over his bed. One Jim didn’t know. But he was not human, Jim knew. He had pointy ears and dark eyes, that were kind when Jim looked at him.

ā€œAre you a Vulcan?ā€ Jim asked, weakly

ā€œShh. It is okay. Do not speak.ā€  The Vulcan put his hand on Jim’s face. ā€œYou have a fever.ā€

ā€œMommy says I’m very sick.ā€

ā€œYou are, Jim. But I am here to help you.ā€

ā€œAre you a doctor?ā€

ā€œSomething like that.ā€ His finger spread out across Jim’s cheek. ā€œGo to sleep, Jim. When you wake up, you will feel better.ā€

ā€œButā€¦ā€

The Vulcan smiled very slightly. ā€œAll will be well.ā€

Jim felt a warmth in cheek that flowed from his skin and seemed to envelope him. And his eyes felt so heavy. The fingers moved from his face as he fell into a deep sleep.

    Oh poor Jim, he needs a hug! I’m glad Spock is able to help him across the years!? This is part of the other Spock/Guardian Angel flashes? Prequel? Does that mean that there will be more? Fingers crossed! ā¤ļøšŸ’ššŸ––

      It is the prequel to the part I had already written where “the Vulcan” got Jim away from Frank. Little Jim referenced being in the hospital when the Vulcan came so I decided to write that scene

    Oh bless you! Thank you so much! I’m glad your better angels appealed to you to have mercy on us and give us more young Jim/healer Spock! I’m so glad we have hope for more. You certainly can know it when you hit a super winning new idea like this.

    You just like how we beg. 🄰
