The BLTS Archive- Forgive Me, My Love

Notes: This is a drabble, in answer to the challenge from the
SpockandChristine list:

Write a story where Christine dies....either illness or accident.  She
and Spock can be friends, lovers, or married bondmates.  How does she
die, and how does Spock cope?

Feedback: always appreciated

Spock sat, stunned.

After all they had been through ... all the close calls and life or
death situations ... to have her die like this was unfathomable.

But there she was ... cold and lifeless. To think that such a tiny bug
could be so deadly ... it was beyond his comprehension.

As the Doctor and Captain approached, he took her in his arms for the
first, and last time. "Forgive me, my love ... I always thought we
would have more time."

McCoy called the ship, "four to beam up," as the tears slid
unacknowledged down Spock's cheek.
