Summary: Jim lets his thoughts wonder while sleeping with a thinking Bones in bed.
A/N: Sequel time! Jim felt that I should tell his side of the story and pouted until I wrote this. Song is Halo by Beyonce. Or most of it anyway, since it repeats so much at the end!
Thanks to everyone who read/responded to the first story! You don't have to read that one first, but please do just for fun!! Ok…onward with the story…hope everyone enjoys…comments are love like chocolate chips are to cookies! xp
This is unbeta’d…all mistakes are my own!
Jim was getting settled for the night. The dinner he had shared with Bones was peaceful and calm after a day of speeding to the next crisis. For some it would be surprising that Jim was settled with just one person. He knew what everyone had said about him at the academy; his dalliances were legendary. However, the only person who truly knew what Jim was all about was the man who was quietly mulling in his thoughts next to him. Everything would be alright, as long as he had his Bones about him. Caught in the stage between full sleep and being awake, he heard the music change in the background from dinner and Jim found himself thinking of how the song applied to their relationship…as friends, co-workers, lovers…
Remember those walls I built
Which, by the way, were not as high as some of the ones you built
Well baby they’re tumbling down
Why? Did Sulu and Chekov fly the ship into something?
And they didn’t even put up a fight
Remember the Narada? Good times, big fights
They didn’t even make a sound
If a phaser goes off in deep space, does anyone hear it?
I found a way to let you in
I am an open door, come on in
But I never really had a doubt
I AM James T. Kirk
Standing in the light of your halo
Don’t let Scotty see, he might think he’s accidentally beaming you somewhere
I’ve got my angel now
It might sound cheesy, but oh so true
It’s like I’ve been awakened
Um, how much longer until I have to get up and really be awake, because I’m really enjoying this sleeping arrangement
Every rule I had you breakin’
If you broke a rule, your brain would explode. Me, on the other hand…
It’s the risk that I’m takin’
Risk is the job of a Starfleet captain
I ain’t never gonna shut you out
I love how you say ain’t. It’s the whole Southern drawl thing.
Everywhere I’m looking now
Which would be only in your eyes
I’m surrounded by your embrace
I want to surround you with my embrace, so that’s why I’m throwing my arm over you now.
Baby I can see your halo
But it’s a little on the rusty side
You know you’re my saving grace
How many times have you made me all better from my various activities?
You’re everything I need and more
And want, desire, require…
It’s written all over your face
Not really because you won’t let anyone see the true you
Baby I can feel your halo
It keeps me sane when I’m on an away mission
Pray it won’t fade away
As long as you’ll have me…
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
One, two, three
I see your halo (halo) halo
Four, five, six
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
Seven, eight, nine
I can see your halo (halo) halo
Ten, eleven, twelve
Hit me like a ray of sun
Just like all the time you’ve hit me with a hypospray
Burning through my darkest night
Probably because of the fever caused by said hypospray
You’re the only one that I want
Because my other choice is Uhura, and Spock would do that Vulcan thing if I did
Think I’m addicted to your light
Nobody else better be addicted
I swore I’d never fall again
You’re much better at swearing than me, dammit
But this don’t even feel like falling
I know all about falling, remember that jump from the Enterprise to Vulcan?
Gravity can’t forget
Why? Because it has an elephant’s memory?
To pull me back to the ground again
That means I would have to go to sick bay and get a hypospray if I broke a bone. Better not.
It’s like I’ve be…
Jim reached over to the table by the bed and switched the music off; no need in listening to the rest of the song since it just repeats itself, he thought. Jim knew Bones was out of his thoughts when he felt Bones relax and begin to thread his fingers through Jim’s hair. Jim grinned to himself and snuggled closer to Bones, placing his head over Bones’ heart. Just as Jim was getting comfortable and drifting off to sleep again, he wanted to set the record straight about the lyrics. He sleepily whispered to Bones’ thoughts as he linked their hands together, “She only said it twelve times.”
End.
