Characters: Hikaru Sulu, Pavel Chekov
When: Saturday, November 14th, night
Where: Outskirts of town, student party
Rating: PG/PG-13
Description: Three days later, Pavel is still paying for his discussion with Jim. Hikaru intervenes.
After the fight, Pavel had been relieved to find that he hadn't suffered any major damage, except maybe to his reputation. Gossip traveled fast under most circumstances, and even faster when it involved both Pavel and Jim. Especially Jim. Especially when rumors were that Jim Kirk and his best friend had gotten into a major fist fight and they were both wearing the proof on their faces.
Then people started asking why.
Pavel didn't have answers for them, other than the truth, which he wasn't willing to share with them. Not even for a second would he consider letting them know that the real reason he and Jim had fought it out. In the meantime, he wasn't going to let the rest of his life suffer. He came to the party, just like he would have with Jim with him. Only word spread faster than he'd expected, including the truth of what had been going on.
For the second time that week, Pavel found himself being held down and beaten, struggling harder this time in the way he hadn't done when fighting Jim. Bruises that had started to heal were worse now, and he gasped in pain at every blow. He was going to kick their asses, all of the ones who thought it was a good idea to do this to him again. It was just going to have to wait until he could breathe again.
Bastards.
