A/N: here is some McCoy anger and worry (cause who could distinguish those)


Doctor McCoy was rather suspicious by Captain's new good health. He was too well rested, his muscles weren't tensed. It's not that Doctor wanted for him to be tensed, but the change was too quick. It just happened all of the sudden. McCoy wasn't keen on surprises. He expected of his Captain to get mad at one point. Jim just wasn't the sort of a man to spend a lot of time maintaining his health. Leonard didn't liked mysteries. They bugged him. Poked him from the inside. But this mystery eluded him.

That's why he got Captain to undergo more exams than usual. Soon Jim was tense again and all looked normally stressful. But McCoy wasn't happy not knowing what made him feel better. Not because he was prying bastard, which he was, but because he wanted to bottle the thing and make Jim take it regularly.

Whatever it was it passed before McCoy could catch it.

"You should exercise more" he grunted dissatisfied. "And rest more."

"Yes doctor" said Jim with a smile and McCoy became suspicious.

"You're acting too polite" he said angrily. "Damn it Jim what are you playing. Admit it, you have some new devious plan that entertain you enough not to snap at me. You never withstood so much time in taking test without running away from me."

"Maybe I'm just repentant" Jim smiled on a side. "When you're repentant enough prize just comes your way. I'll try with politeness, sometimes that's all you need."

The glee on Captain's face annoyed McCoy beyond words.

"I'll keep an eye on you" he threatened him. "Don't think in doing something crazy like making our green blooded officer nerve pinch you."

"That's fascinating thing, isn't it" Jim said mildly with a fond smile. "How they just go down like unplugged puppets. I sometimes wonder how it feels like."

"Jim" McCoy said pleadingly now really scare. "Don't you mock me here, I'm really worried by you. When you're calm like this something dangerous comes over you. You forget about fear and danger and just rush in."

"Into what Bones?" Jim tipped his head to aside. "What exactly do you think I'll do? Our Vulcan friend didn't exactly display any sensual interest in anyone, he doesn't show he's noticed anything strange about me. On contrary it seems we are getting along. Are you by any chance jealous of our time together? Do you feel neglected?"

"Me jealous on green blooded, pointy eared computer?" McCoy was appalled, Jim laughed at him and he restrained himself clasping his hands behind his back. "Never, but maybe I'm feeling a bit neglected. When did you last come in for a small refreshment?"

"Refreshment Bones?" Jim asked with humor. "I can't afford those too often, I don't have your stamina."

"Stamina my ass" murmured McCoy.

"What was that Bones?" Jim pretended he didn't hear him.

McCoy just shook his head.

"Oh, go on, and if possible get some of that medicine that made your back ache less" he dismissed him.

Jim laughed out loud and McCoy wasn't in the mood to ask what the joke was. Chapel was sloppy lately, he'll have to find her and yell at her some for misplacing his bottle of Scotch.


Come on, review me away :)
