Between "Facing"
(Post-STiD hospital scene)
“Spock, thank you.” “You’re welcome, Jim.”
Jim stole a glance at Bones, he’s all serious-doctor face. Jim swallowed what he was going to say to Bones. He wanted to wait until Spock left. Those words belonged to him and Bones alone. But Bones walked out of the door before Spock did, so Jim waited. And he waited.
And Bones never came back.
