It had to have swimming in it. Disclaimer: These are the characters of Paramount and Viacom, they own them, I only check 'em out from the library. I promise to bring 'em back. Feedback to Istannor @aol.com Uhura got up from her communications desk and stretched. It had been a long shift and she was beat. She decided to go swimming and then a light workout. Yes, she thought, it would be good to feel the water move against her skin.She needed something this evening to help her relax. That decided, she made her way for her cabin and changed into workout clothes. When she got to the pool, it was obvious that she'd already been beaten to the punch. James Kirk was swimming laps. She sat at the poolside and dangled her feet in the water and watched him swim. He swam like he did everything else in life, with his complete attention on what he was doing. She watched the water flow over the muscles of his back and legs as he cleanly cut through the water. She decided one of her favorite activities could become watching James Kirk swim. He rotated side to side, and the motion made the muscles of his butt flex and relax, flex and relax. Uhura realized maybe she didn't need to swim after all to work out her tension. She leaned back and watched him while he swam. He made little waves that spread out from him and gently caressed her feet. She thought of other things she would like him to caress and drifted off on that train of thought for awhile. He could caress her hair and let his lips trail down her neck to the top of her swimsuit. He could run a finger lightly up the inside of her left thigh and then trail kisses after it. He could massage her shoulders and pull her back against his chest so she could caress all those bulging chest muscles. He could rub slowly against her while they were in the pool and kiss her fingertips one at a time. "Oh my, there are far better ways to get rid of tension than exercise," she whispered to herself. "You better watch out, Jim. I am on the prowl, and you, my sweet, look good enough to pounce on." That train of thought took her mind elsewhere for quite some time. After about the 40th lap, he stopped abruptly and swam over to where she sat. "Nyota, how long are you going to watch me swim?" "How long do I have, Captain?" He laughed at her response and she found she liked that a lot. "As long as you want, Sweet Lady, on one condition." "And what is that condition, pray tell?" His smile got even bigger and he leaned towards her. She could see the water running off of his rippling chest muscles. He knew exactly what he was doing to her. His voice went lower. "I'll swim for you if you do something for me." Uhura licked her lips in anticipation. "That's an interesting offer, Jim. I don't know if I can give you a complete yes until I have an idea of what you want me to do. It might be something that nice girls don't do." She smiled and Jim leaned in just a little bit closer."Tell me what it is first." He leaned forward to whisper in her ear, "I... want... you... to..., " "What? Don't you leave me hanging. What is it that you want, Captain Sugar?" "You promise not to be mad if I ask you?" He ran a finger over the top strap of her bathing suit. It made her shiver. "I promise." He really did have gorgeous eyes. "I... want... you... to..." Uhura leaned closer to hear him, "get wet!" When she came up for air, he was already sitting on the side of the pool, rolling and laughing so hard he was gasping."Jim, I am going to get you for this." As soon as he stopped laughing he dove back in the pool and crossed over to where she stood with a definite glare on her face. He came up right in front of her and pulled her into a wet hug. "I certainly hope you get me back, Nyota. Can I offer suggestions?" She couldn't resist. "What did you have in mind, Captain?" He hung his head down and looked up at her with a wicked smile. "I've been a bad boy. I deserve a spanking." the end In honor of the spankiverse. I couldn't resist, Jungle Kitty.
