Summary
“At least in Iowa, it wasn’t ridiculously humid when it rained,” Jim thought sourly as he kicked a rock along. “This fucking sucks.”
A car horn tooted behind him, and he saw a red 1965 Chevy Corvette pull up along the curb and a hand reach over to crank the window down.
“Are you insane, kid? Why are you walkin’ in the rain? Get in, I’ll take you home.”Series

Summary
Jim had practically lived at Dr. and Mrs. McCoy's house during the summer. It got to the point where half of Leo's drawers had Jim's shirts in them and Jim's sleeping bag had taken up permanent residence on the floor next to Leo's bed. And well, when Eleanora peeked in the door late at night and saw them curled up together on the bed, sleeping bag forgotten, she didn't mind because they were happy together.

Summary
Leo's senior year was coming to a close, and he was making the decision of where to start college. Despite the distance from his home and Jim, his first choice was the University of Mississippi, for their prestigious medical program.
Jim's sophomore year was similar to his freshman year, taking several of the same classes that Leo was and excelling. They were on their way to Calculus from AP Chemistry when they heard the announcement- "James Kirk to counseling, please."Leo quickly reached down to squeeze Jim's hand. "Go. I'll tell Vassbinder where you are and you can copy my notes tonight. Don't worry."
"Thanks, Bones. I owe you one," Jim said as he dropped Leo's hand and began walking in the opposite direction to the counseling office.

"Yeah, but you have no style," Jim teased as he grabbed a cart from the array.

The next time they chatted, Jim was in a significantly sulkier mood. After he answered another one of Leo’s questions with an indifferent shrug, Leo sighed.
“Okay kid, if you’re gonna break up with me, just do it. I know you well enough to know when something’s wrong with you, so spit it out.”

When Bones stepped off the train Wednesday night for his Thanksgiving break, he was surprised to find only Eleanora standing on the platform to greet him.
“It’s great to see you again, Leo,” she said as she opened her arms for a hug. “I’ve missed you so much.”
“I missed you too, Ma. Where’s everybody else?” They both knew he was really asking where Jim was, but neither of them voiced that statement.

Jim just shrugged. “I- I guess. Yeah, I like it, and I’m freaking out because I really want to go to Ole Miss with Bones and-“
“James, you can make new friends. You don’t have to go to Mississippi just because that’s where Leonard is,” Winona said, and he could tell that she was trying to be reassuring.
“But I can’t, Mom, because I love him,” Jim blurted out without thinking.

“Got your mug right here, you dork.”

He had been expecting to spend his birthday snuggling with his boyfriend and making out on his bed, maybe leaving the warm bed to go watch a movie in the living room, swathed in blankets. He had been expecting his mother to make him breakfast as she did every year, and Sam to give him a hard time about graduating early, and Frank to be surly and not say anything, as he did every year.

“He’s upstairs, Leo. He’s waiting for you.”
“Uh, thanks, Mrs. K,” Leo said, utterly perplexed. He pulled his boots off and hung his coat up before following the all too familiar path to Jim’s room.
“Jim?” The door was cracked, and Leo knocked lightly before entering, finding Jim sitting cross-legged on his bed and clutching an envelope.

Summary
Eleanora rolled her eyes. “Look, boys, I know you two are together. I’ve suspected it from the start, and when Winona told me about Jim’s confession in Iowa, I wasn’t surprised at all. So, this is my graduation gift to Jim and a congratulations gift to you for surviving your first year at Ole Miss, Leonard. Though I am irritated that you never told me, boys.”
Leo stood up and hugged his mother wordlessly, and Jim joined in when Eleanora beckoned him over.
“Thanks, Mrs. M,” he said, and she squeezed his shoulder.
“It’s my pleasure, Jim.”They flew out two weeks later, Winona dropping them off at the airport since she had a flight heading north leaving the same day. Jim had flown plenty of times, and even considered being a pilot briefly, but Leo hadn’t before. He was unsure of how he’d react, and Jim had just squeezed his hand.

“Not today, Bones. I’ll get new ones when we get home, okay? Let’s go look around for now, okay? We’ve only got a week, and there’s a lot of stuff I want to do.”
Leo rolled his eyes as Jim bounded for the door, and wondered again why he had to fall in love with this idiot, out of everyone on the planet.
