The Language of His Body
by [info]calicokat



The first time she undressed Commander Spock, Nyota felt like she’d disrobed a statue: all still, pale, sculpted muscle. She sat on his lap, warm and near with their sex pressed too-chastely together despite the arousal firm beneath her weight.

She mustered a teasing smile.

“Am I doing something wrong?”

Spock regarded her naked body with a measured gaze.

“While I wish to respect the customs of human courtship, Vulcans consider it a shameful loss of self control to engage in sex for the purpose of recreation.”

“I’ll put my clothes back on,” she offered, carefully concealing her disappointment. She was under no illusions – she knew that navigating a cross-species relationship was going to be difficult.

Spock brought his hand to rest on the rise of her hip.

“That will not be necessary. I am sufficiently aroused to complete coitus.”

Nyota kissed the Vulcan coaxingly, lips pliant against his stiltedly reciprocative mouth. She’d lost her virginity to a boy in a moment of daring and independence growing up in the sub-tropical south of the United States of Africa. She’d had other brief but meaningful relationships before she enlisted in Starfleet. She gathered strength from those earlier experiences.

She tore the foil on the condom she’d been carrying since she first anticipated her relationship with Spock taking a turn towards physicality. She pinched its rubber tip and rolled it over him, listening to the infinitesimal changes in his steady breathing. She needed all her good ear for nuance to translate the subtle ways her lover communicated.

She rode him with the roll of her hips and dip and bob of her body, his sex thick within the embrace of her body. Her eyes rolled at the pleasure it sparked, but when she looked back at him, she discovered he’d closed his eyes against the sight of her. For a moment, Nyota almost stopped—almost broke away and left him wet with her cum and alone. Her stomach twisted as she imagined him shutting himself off, separating his physical hunger from his conscious unwillingness to copulate. It took trust and a firm grasp on her self esteem for her to clench the muscles of her hips around him, instead, and drag her slickness against his arousal, listening for only the next slight hitch of breath that betrayed the Vulcan’s continued interest.

He stunned her in the moment his affection caught up to her, no change on his part but her own heady realization: he had never had sex. What little vulnerability he betrayed was a gift more stunning than any night of passion in another human’s bed.

The catch of his breath and his cautious grasp on her hip would alone destroy him if he didn’t trust her implicitly not to go gossiping to her girlfriends about her bedroom exploits. He would be shamed to his father’s people and the heritage he was raised with to consider a night of passion for passion’s sake outside the mating bond, let alone act that passion out. This moment indulged only the human in him he so carefully concealed from everyone else. Joy filled her in the moment of comprehension. An orgasm shuddered through her but left her sex hot and only more desirous around him.

She brought him to a climax with the strength of her thighs to keep her bouncing against his hips without much help at all from her still-but-receptive partner. A breathy grunt escaped Spock’s throat and his fingers tightened minutely on her skin. Nyota grasped the back of his head and kissed him deep and long. She was breathless from the workout and grinding her second climax against his willing body as it swept like a solar wind through her abdomen. Adoration rushed through her pulsing blood as Spock gripped her in turn and returned every inch of that kiss.

She knew it was going to be difficult, but these moments that bridged the gap between their worlds were exactly what she loved.

Aw, thanks. <3 I went in with no spoilers but I have to admit I loved everything about them in the movie and the subtle give and take of their relationship.

I'm so happy to see a Uhura fic already. She wasn't given enough to do in the movie but I really liked her and it's great to see some het in this fandom so soon. I think this was very them, too, and it was lovely. I love Uhura's determination at the end.

It's funny; I'm all set up to write some K/S (I already wrote Spock Prime/Kirk), but I had a long wait this morning and a notebook on hand and this was what came out. Their chemistry was pretty captivating on the screen. X)

Thanks. :) I think the character I'm most fascinated with is definitely Spock and the question for myself of figuring out Vulcan relationships and how Vulcans relate at all and how I can write that realistically. I'm thrilled that it played for you.

I agree with [info]padmekenobi27, the last line is priceless! I particularly liked the final part, with her realizing he'd never had sex. That's sweet and hot at the same time! Great job!

Oh such a beautiful piece!

her still-but-receptive partner

Exactly the phrase I've been looking for to describe everything I love about the way film!Spock reacts to this relationship. He's so stiff, so proper, so clearly enjoying-but-not-able-to-participate-properly that little things, like closing his eyes when Uhura can't see him, and a hand on her hip when they kiss, become incredibly sexy. Your fic is a perfect extension of that, taking the relationship to the next level. Breathtaking. Thank you!

I enjoyed your story very much.

My highlights are Spock being so official when talking to Uhura in this story, but obviously trusting her deeply. Great moment when Uhura realise that he does trust her.

It was a real challenge to get the mindset down. It's a short piece but I really agonized over word choice for an unbelivably long time in places (and enlisted my roomate [info]black_regalia to bring it home), so it's so awesome to hear people picking up on everything I tried to work in. :)

I don't ship Spock/Uhura, but this is totally believable.

“That will not be necessary. I am sufficiently aroused to complete coitus.” *rolls eyes* He totally would say that, like it's a chore he wants to get out of the way.

I am growing to. Frankly, [info]black_regalia and I plotted something in the car that's quite epic and has some element of shipping half the things that breathe on the ship and some of the things that don't--...okay, not quite, but if it comes to fruition it will have something for everyone and hopefully--hopefully still leave most people going home happy.

I'm near-speechless right now. that was so intense! Her realizing how important that moment was, even though he had his eyes closed..guh. wow.
I can definitly see this as their first time, especially with his very logical "i am aroused enough" bit lol. Great work, hope your write more fic!

I'm making plans but I'm also the least reliable person in fandom. HOWEVER, [info]black_regalia is not and she's now in on these plans. *Doctor Evil finger* We'll see how that goes. Our last fic was 260,000 words. We're going to try to be more succienct. T_T

Oh this is lovely and so perfectly captures what I love about the pairing. His control v. her passion and the obvious tightrope that they walk in their interactions. I really think their reltionship is fascinating.

I am such a stickler for realism in a fic. I think I got home around 11:30 with the draft written and I agonized about this for three hours, took a nap, and put the finishing touches on it at 4:00. I don't think I've ever worked so hard for something this short, so that you're seeing that tightrope walk is a huge relief!
