UNLUCKY FOR SOME

As Spock entered the officer's mess there were "Get Lucky" shamrocks
on several of the breakfast trays. He sighed and shook his head.
<Must humans turn every holiday into a mating ritual?>

To his surprise, there was a note on his tray beside his tea and
toast. "Be - Mine - Tonight? - L" was spelled out on its leaves.
<Imprudent> He thought testily.

Kirk and McCoy joined him a the table before he could dispose of the
blood-green clover.

The captain spied it and joked; "Spock, it seems you have a secret
admirer, 'L', hmm. Care to hazard a guess?" Jim sat down with his
bacon and eggs and a pile of shamrocks.

"I'm sure I do not know. Perhaps Doctor McCoy knows who would send
such an unwelcome and inappropriate message?" Spock replied coldly as
he crumpled the note.

McCoy opened his mouth to protest his innocence, but Spock quelled
him with withering glance. Len shrugged and ate his breakfast.

Across the room, visiting Professor Lora Lonaghan saw Commander Spock
crush the shamrock she had slipped on his tray and she realized that
her plans for the evening had been crushed along with it.
