Here’s the next part

“Hey,” Jim called after the Vulcan boy who was now running away from him at a rapid pace. “Are you following me?”

“Jim, you can’t just run after children and scream at them,” Bones told them as they walked along the quad area at the Academy.

Jim ran his hand through his hair in frustration. “I know but…you saw him, right?”

“I saw a Vulcan kid, yeah. I don’t know for sure he’s following you specifically. He seems young though. Wonder why he has no supervision.”

Jim snorted. “They probably don’t think they need it. All that independence stuff.”

Bones smirked. “Well, you’d know I guess. With all your experience with Vulcans and all.”

“One Vulcan and it was a disaster. Or I guess it was.”

Bones waved his hand over the automatic door that led into their dorm room and it opened.

“Did you ever think to actually confront Spock to find out what you did wrong?”

“What makes you think it was something I did?”

“Because I know you. Anyway, try a little communication. He may tell you the old, ‘it’s not you it’s me thing’ and then you’ll know for sure it is you.” Bones chuckled. “But it might give you closure if you ask.”

“Who said I need closure?”

Bones sighed. “Whatever, kid. You’re seeing Vulcan spooks wherever you go, but if you think you’re okay who am I to tell you different?” Jim scowled and went into his dorm.
