If it was literally anyone else, it would be completely unwanted and the idea would be unnerving but it's Mick, and that alone makes a world of difference. He's the only person that has ever captured Leonard's attention this way, and has managed to evoke an entire plethora of feelings in him which, frankly, Leonard spent his early teens assuming there was something wrong with him for not having. Apparently, he just has a type and that type is Mick Rory.

As it is, that confirmation just seems to make the fluttering critters in his stomach throw a goddamn rave. He feels the smile break across his face at breakneck speed, "She'll love it." He doesn't let the stray thought that he'd have to hide it from Lewis when he got home break the smile or the good feeling of the moment.

And then he said he made dinner and it's got Leonard's attention because he hasn't really eaten today. "Yeah? What'd you make?" Not that it really matters, he eats almost everything Mick cooks.
