A/N: Hello! Thank you all who read the last chapter. Love you. This one was inspired by McCoy's quote from the episode „The Devil in the Dark". Enjoy! :D

The weather forecasters
It's not that it ever rained in space. At least not literally. But sometimes Spock caught himself thinking about rain.
He always knew what weather was in the Captain's mind. It was usually sunny there. There were days when the storm raged. Sometimes there were just some clouds. And, of course, there were also rainy days at times.
Spock wasn't overly fond of these last ones. They put him in most inconvenient position. In the position of... not knowing how to react, what to do. He was left with a feeling of helplessness, watching his friend in such a miserable state and being unable to help.
He was never a man to comfort somebody. He could provide the logical arguments and some useful advice. They were invaluable in case of a storm. He could be a great companion on sunny days. He was even able to chase the intrusive clouds away on occasion, simply with his presence, silent signs of understanding, sympathy... But he found himself helpless against the rain. So when it rained he simply stood by his Captain, offering his company. He didn't bring an umbrella, he got a wetting with him.
Fortunately, he wasn't the only weather forecaster abroad the Enterprise. It never ceased to amaze him just how much McCoy could do with a single look, single smile, single word. Wasn't it fascinating that the rain stopped immediately and they could both dry off, watching the remaining puddles disappear?
And when Spock sensed a break in the weather in his own heart, he knew to whom to go.
One day the Doctor said he might have been able to cure a rainy day. Spock, on the other hand, was implicitly sure of it. As McCoy was so fond of reminding, he was a doctor. It was his job, to cure things. So he cured everything, even the bad weather. Even a rainy day. Even a heart. A green one too. Fascinating.
A/N: Yeah, that's it. I really hope you like it. I would LOVE to know if you do, please leave me a review!
While writing this, I didn't know the meaning of a phrase „rainy day", I thought it meant simply a day when it rains, the bad weather. But I think it is still okay. Maybe I am just less original than I thought I was, because I compared a rainy day to some kind of a bad mood. :P I want to learn new English phrases and words in order to develop my writing skills. You see, the thing is, I read books in Polish, not in English. That's why my writing in English is not as good as I would like to. So I'm buying some books in English today and I want to start writing a longer story with actual plot, dialogues and everything. ;)
Thank you for reading, lovely people! You have no idea how happy I am that you read this, really. Take care! :)
