While Tonia and Winona were gone, Leonard went and got changed out of his scrubs back into his own clothes. Once he was done, he headed back to Jim's room and sat with him, talking to him while they waited.
The kid turned out to be a damn good guy despite the things he had been through. Sure, he still had some growing up to do, but Leonard was sure that he was going to be something once he decided where he was going in his life. As they talked, he found that he also appreciated a good drink, so he ended up telling him about his family's moonshine recipe, which of course they all referred to as whiskey so as not to draw attention to it.
"I'll have to get you a bottle or two sometime," he told him just before Tonia and Winona came back.
When Jim called him Bones, he found himself smiling. "I actually kinda like it."
"So how long do you think Jim is going to be in here?" Winona asked as she sat down in one of the other chairs. Leonard was glad to see that the trauma to her eye looked to be completely gone now.
"The end of the week, I think," he told her. "Just want to make sure that he doesn't have any complications."
"That's not too bad," she said.
"You all hungry?" Leonard asked. "I wouldn't want to subject a healing man to hospital food, so maybe we could order something in?"
