Flash Fic, August 20, 2021

,

“Last call.”

Spock looked around for his husband, but didn’t immediately see him.

He was then approached by the bartender, Max.  “I guess you’re looking for Jim.”

“Yes.”

He used his thumb to gesture to the back booth. “Over there. He’s pretty out of it.”

Spock nodded. “My thanks.”

He made his way to the dark booth in the back and found Jim slumped over the table. Next to him was several empty glasses.

“Jim.”

He had to say it several times before Jim slowly raised his head to look at Spock. His eyes were bloodshot and dazed.

“Whosherit?”

“Me, your husband.”

“Hello husband.”

“I thought you would have returned home before now.”

“Was mad.”

“I realize. Are you capable of standing?”

“Uh. Think so.”

Spock helped him out of the booth, and held him up with an arm around him. He reeked of far too much booze.

“You need a shower and to be put to bed.”

“You can’t bed me until you polygize.”

“I am not trying to bed you,” Spock said. “Come.”

He was able to get Jim out of the bar, and to the farmhouse without much trouble. Then up the stairs and into the shower.

After he washed his husband and made him brush his teeth, somewhat successfully, he  steered him to their bed.

Lying on his back, Jim stared up at him, eyes a little dewy. “Still mad at me?”

“I am not.”

“Good. Not mad at you either.”

“That is pleasing to hear. I am sorry you found it necessary to overindulge.”

“Stupid, I know. I feel gross.”

“Go to sleep, ashaya. You will feel better in the morning.”

“I love you.”

“I love you also.”

“Spock, what will we do with…”

Spock shook his head, put his hand on Jim’s face, and whispered, “We will figure it out as we always have. Sleep now, Jim. You have nothing to fear.”

When Jim closed his eyes, he turned away and left their bedroom. He went downstairs and once more picked up the PADD with the message that had started it all.

I am pregnant with your child

    WTH??????????????????????????????????

    So Spock needs to ‘pologize. But this could mean a zillion things. Either way. My mind is flying to the possibilities.
    I usually look forward to the weekend and not particularly Monday.
    But you changed all that in one short flash.

        On 2nd thought is that -“No part 2 has been written of course” or “No. Part 2 has been written of course”? Totally different meanings!!! LOL

    I didn’t even think of the possibility that there was a third person involved. I know you don’t usually do mpreg… but I was trying to figure out if it was Jim or Spock pregnant… But then again if Jim was the one pregnant would he be drinking to excess like that?. I don’t know. Did he get a space alien pregnant? Did Spock? And why are they mad?
    This definitely needs an additional chapter or more. And yes I know I’m always asking for more. But seriously Ivan!! I’m a waiting’. Lol! 🤷🏻‍♀️😜

      Oh crap! It didn’t even cross my mind it could be one of the guys texting the other about being pregnant. See??? Another possibility. I mean, Iv said no, but still – if that was an obvious possibility I missed, how many others are there? We need answers!!!
