Kirk/Spock
~2,600 words
Summary: Prompt - Kirk is attracted to Spock and he’s also got a vague idea of how good they could be together due to little bits and pieces that filtered through the mind-meld with Spock-prime. But at the same time he’s freaked out by the fact that if Sarek didn’t call Spock off, he would’ve seriously choked him to death. So Kirk tries to stick to only being friends with Spock even though he really wants something more than friendship but he gets freaked out by it becoming more because he can’t get over the whole choking thing.
