He turned his head and looked towards Spock, his expression dumbfounded.
Uhura was standing here during Spock's statement. Right there, her hand graceful and strong where it curved around his. His own hand tightened as his mind simultaneously raced and came to a screeching halt. Could Spock... really mean what he thought Spock meant? His mouth felt hot and dry suddenly, unable to even find words. Spock had made him speechless.
Her hand was still laced to his.
Answer, idiot. Answer him!
"I.. you two..." He shook his head, trying to find the words, "I thought you two were..." He fumbled, mentally cursing himself, "Exclusive." He finally got out.
