bringstheheatMovie night came and went.
Sara had been frowning distantly at her phone through a good portion of the movie, texting someone and Mick will bet even money that while he’d made Leo promise he wouldn’t reach out to Leonard, he never made any such promises regarding Sara. Figures.
He’ll come back around.
Mick wishes he could be as certain as Leo. He wishes he could have the faith that Leo has that somehow his partner isn’t giving up on him or on them or what they built with Sara but every time he glances over and there’s an empty space where Leonard should be it makes him ache. He should be here. He should be with him and the empty spaces only remind him of the year he spent without him. Guilt still twists up in his gut over the fight, even though he’s been told a few times over now that there was nothing that could have stopped it.
So after the movie he wanders off with a fresh beer. Mick makes himself a sandwich in the galley and scowls when he realizes that without even thinking about it he’s made two. One for him and one for..
fuck.
He doesn’t leave it outside of Snart’s door, no matter how tempted he might be to make sure the bastard is at least eating. Leo said leave him alone. Leonard told him to go away. Mick turns around and leaves both of them behind. He’s not hungry anymore. A quick trip to the fabrication room for more paper and a fresh typewriter ribbon and he goes back to his room. There’s another story itching to get out and if he isn’t going to sleep he might as well do something useful for the rest of the night.
