Summary
Has anyone seen the 2001 movie "Sweet November" with Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron? Well this fic is just that with a few tweaks to keep it more in character.
Shane Hollander is a stressed out and single star of the Montreal Voyagers,. Ilya Rozanov is a new in town dog groomer. Both men need to take their driver's license exam. When Ilya attempts to cheat off of Shane, he gets kicked out and told he cannot retake the test for a month. Ilya convinces Shane to help him out.
“Ah, Mr. Helper-man. First you steal identity, then you steal my job. What next?” Rozanov says and then takes a long drag.
“What? I didn’t steal your job!” Shane replies, the now familiar heat returning, “And you shouldn’t smoke.”
Rozanov laughs and then schools his features, “You owe me now.”
“For what?”
“For making me fail test. Now I cannot drive. I drive for work,” Rozanov replies, “Now I cannot work.”
“I don’t see how any of this is my fault, you were the one trying to cheat!”

Summary
As the five year mission is coming to an end, Kirk and Spock must decide what to do next. Kirk thinks it would be fun to live in one of the Painted Ladies, a set of brightly colored Victorian houses in San Francisco, and asks Spock to join him. Instead of going to Gol or the VSA, Spock agrees to join Kirk.
This idea started out as a joke, but it turned more into an exploration of Kirk and Spock adjusting to life on Earth after living in space for so long. I'm cheating a little bit because Spock has some of his post Gol/V'ger character development, but I tried to keep it as timeline accurate as I could.
