"Good." He says, looking back up at him again. It's the sort of thing that he needed to hear in the ache of a week gone without even one ounce of contact when they'd gotten used to not going more than a handful of days.

"I gotta go get Lise soon," Reality always has a way of ruining moments like this. But. "We'll come by this weekend?" Unless something came up and Lewis ruined his plans like he was famous for doing. But he'd try anyway.

Mick doesn't want him to go, not so soon, not after a week of silence and distance. But he nods all the same. "Yeah. Yeah this weekend sounds good."

His kitchen is all but fucking bare, but he'll find a way to scrape together a few bucks before then. "I'll be here Lenny."

"You better." he teases lightly, and as he untangles his fingers from Mick's and prepares to leave there's this sudden, overwhelming urge to lean over and kiss him. He hesitates, and there's every bit of evidence that something is going on in his head, but he lets go of whatever it is in an instant and forces a smile that doesn't look forced at all, "So, this weekend, then." he reiterates with a nod before heading toward the door. Leaving it like this, so soon after he got here, is kind of the worst, but he had taken up too much of the day trying to talk himself into coming over in the first place. And at least he'd have something to look forward to this way.

Mick can see it. He can sense it. It takes all of his very limited self-control to remain completely still in the hopes that Leonard might..

But he doesn't.
So he gives him an easy smile. A nod. "This weekend Lenny."

Maybe it's a good thing the hot water heater is busted again. Because he's going to be taking a lot more cold showers if this keeps up.
