Hurdles by Ludjin (R)
Fandom: STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE
Pairing: Trip/T'Pol
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: unknown
Why this must be read: In the last hiatus before Bound aired, a challenge went around the Trip/T'Pol community for authors to write their own version of the episode, based on whatever spoilers they'd heard. Ludjin met that challenge with a well-executed plot, good characterisation and a resolution that doesn't completely destroy canon.
Then he met her gaze.
He really hadn't wanted to look her in the eye. The expression on her face was typical for her -- well, for a Vulcan -- but something lurked there. If he put words to it, she looked . . . worried. For him? Nah. No way. Ship's business? She'd outright tell him, if that was the case. Something personal? Three months ago, he would've dug to find out what it was. Now, he told himself over and over that he didn't care. That he shouldn't care. Unfortunately, he was just as bad of a liar to himself as he was to other people. And oddly, the only person who actually seemed to believe his lies was T'Pol.
