this is both illogical and terrifying

There is a well guarded secret about Zachary Quinto that very few know. So secret that he trusted only Noah to keep the secret for him. The secret was that Zach was a snuggler. Given a warm body, like the one in his arms, he nosed in against soft, warm skin, pulled legs and chest and abdomen closer, and gave a playful little grind of himself

Nyota woke slowly, fragments of a dream slipping away as she became more alert. In it, Spock had made it to the dessert table only to ignore the chocolate completely in favor of some fresh fruit. Beyond that, the details were hazy, but seemed to have generally ended much as they had upon returning to their quarters the night before, the plate of chocolate cake she had spirited away earlier waiting for them on the table.

She smiled and stretched a little, pressing back against his warm body as his mouth brushed against her shoulder. By the feel of it he had ideas of continuing the previous evening's activities.

Nyota frowned at his strange words and the sudden movement as he sat up, turning over and raising up on her elbow to peer at him sleepily.

"...Spock? What are you talking about?"

Why was her voice so LOUD? "You don't have to shout!" He was shouting now, even his own voice made him wince. How much did he have to drink last night?! "This isn't a joke, Zoe. How did you get here? I thought.." He thought he had fallen asleep beside Karl last night? So then how was Zoe here?

"This is a dream, right?" So he did the logical thing and without really looking, reached down and pinched the skin on the back of his left hand.

Stupidest thing he'd ever done.

He let out a pained yelp and flinched away from himself, and with his always awkward position, ended up flailing off the bed in a pile of sheets and limbs. That had HURT!

"Loud? What are you - oh my God." Nyota shot her hand out to try to stop his fall but ended up clutching a handful of sheet. She scrambled over to his side of the bed, dropping down on the floor next to him.

"Are you okay?" She untangled him from the sheet, one hand sliding up to cup his cheek as she observed him worriedly.

His eyes rolled back as all of a sudden, there was just a flare of something in his mind. Worryworryworryworryconcernloveamusement. Zach shook once, consumed with the unfamiliar wave of emotions, then grabbed her hand and pulled it off. He had no idea he was gripping her hard enough to bruise, but suddenly there was a pain in his own wrist that made him gasp, pulling away from her entirely.

What was going on!? Zach sat in a crouch, shaking slightly, staring at Zoe.
