He was strolling down the halls of the library building as he dug around in his backpack, shoving his laptop case back around to sit on his back and out of his way. He was on his way towards a study group that was being held in one of the study rooms offered, meeting with people from his Computer Crimes class. His mind was already working on what questions to use to prod his fellow students with. He knew the subject, he just wanted to make sure that he truly understood it.
Sometimes even computers escaped him, but this class was much more than just instant messaging services, social media, video providers, and a way to keep in touch with his mother. Outside of the various other programs that he used on a day to day basis. Thus, he wanted to make sure that he understood the rather intricate connections between the various databases that they would be using for the current semester.
Looking up at the sound of heels clipping along on the floor with sharp raps, he raised an eyebrow and scowled heavily at catching sight of Uhura heading his way. “Shit,” he muttered to himself, shaking his head as he found what he needed finally. He pulled out the card that would let him get past the guard woman who kept the study rooms free of those who wouldn't be welcomed.
“Well, well now, how very interesting,” Uhura drawled, spotting him as he walked. “You look like you've been slumming around with the poor folks. I know for a fact that you do have money to spend.”
Looking down and taking in his washed out jeans and the comfortable shirt with his sweater wrapped around his waist, he raised an eyebrow. “You know, when I was told that you were a clothing snob by a few people, I thought that they had lied to me,” Jim snorted as he looked up once more, shaking his head with obvious amusement. “I'm in comfortable clothing and that's all that is important for me. Now, tell me, what is it that you so desperately need from me? I would have thought that you would be with your fiance right now.”
“He is working with some undergraduates, helping them to process into their graduating classes,” Uhura stated, her eyes cold as she sneered.
“Seriously? Man, I would have never thought that he could do something like that,” Jim mused. He tapped his cheek before shrugging with a flick of his wrist.
Uhura snorted at him and narrowed her eyes as she crossed her arms. “He does it all the time. You apparently have never noticed it,” she stated.
Jim smirked in return, shaking his head. “No. He just never did it before he started to date you. For the simple fact that he was working to make sure that his four point grade point average stayed that way, and to keep me in his good graces. This way he didn't have to take time out of his full studying schedule to make it up to me,” he stated. His voice was even, if not slightly amused, showing none of the hurt from having realized that Spock, as much as he had seemingly cared, hadn't been as invested in their relationship as Jim himself had been.
“You have to be joking,” Uhura snorted, shaking her head, making her black hair swing as she narrowed her eyes at the man who stood before her. “He told me all about your relationship and I saw a good chunk of it myself even before he and I got together.”
“You saw the public part of our relationship, Uhura,” Jim sighed, shaking his head with his annoyance. His blue eyes glinted with strength as he glared at her. “You see what you want to see when it comes to him. Trust me when I say that I was the same way when it came to him. But not any more. I've had some time to really think about things and talk with some people who were willing to talk with me about my so called relationship with him,” he continued. “Let me tell ya, now that I think about it, I have to wonder just how I thought I was so happy with him.
Uhura stared up at him with wide eyes, her mouth falling open as she listened to the almost musing words that came from Jim. Her eyes ran over the man before her as her mind scrambled to rethink what she knew about him. Everything that she knew about him had been from her own observations during the times that they had both been at the same parties, or had the same class for whatever reason. Or had come from gossip. The few times that she had actually spoken to him before they had actually started at Harvard had just proven to her, in her mind, everything that she had heard about him.
But here he was, standing before her, looking happy and content with his current life, happy with his new path. He was smiling and had friends that were making him happy. It was slowly turning her opinion of him upside down and left her wondering just why she hated him before deciding that she really didn't care at the moment.
“You...” she stuttered out, getting a smirk from Jim, finding that she was speechless as he simply shrugged and shifted his bag.
“Look, I don't actually hate you, and I don't hate Spock. I don't like either of you right now, but you two are so far down on the list of things that I'm to be concerned about that it is ridiculous. For that matter, I have to get going. I need to get to my study group so that I can make sure that what I'm thinking about is what I need to know seeing as the apprentice teams are going to be chosen soon,” he drawled, smirking and tilting his head to the side. “Now, if you'll excuse me.”
With that said, he stepped to the side and around the still Uhura, humming happily at having been able to finally put the record straight. He knew that she would think and then some how, in some way, she would work to twist what he had just told her to fit her world view. He knew other people like her. They always thought that they knew the world and the people that walked in it. They would also twist the facts so that it would fit their own world view. And if somehow they weren't able to, they tossed the facts away and called it lies.
He didn't really want to think about that though. He had told his truth when he talked to her. Now all he could do was move forward with his life, just as his mother had told him to do when he had started Harvard.
Jim had to smile to himself as he walked into the library, flashing his card at the front desk woman and heading for the conference room that his study group had booked for their use. He stopped only once to pick up a book from the stacks that he needed for another class and tucked it away into his bag. Stepping into the room, he smiled and took a seat at the small table, ready to start his studying, already pushing the thoughts of Uhura out of his mind as his fellow classmates beamed at him.
“Okay now, so who here is ready for another brain draining study session?” he asked, dropping his bags onto the table. “And did we all remember money so that we can get food and drinks when this session once more takes us into the wee hours?” he asked, getting laughter as everyone dropped their envelopes with their share of the money into the middle of the table. They pulled out their laptops, surge protectors, pens, pencils, highlighters, notebooks, and text books, getting ready to study.
Sighing happily as he put the money envelopes into a manila envelope, Jim smiled softly and firmly pushed all little thoughts about his ex and the chick that was apparently alive to annoy the shit out of him to the back of his mind.
