Day 268

"Hey, Bones."

Jane slipped on to the worn wing-back chair beside Bones' bed and folded her feet underneath her ass and settled in.

"It's been...Been about a week now, damn. Yeah. So, it's been about a week since...this," Jane waved her hand at Bones' unconscious form, "happened, and shit, you've missed more than you might want to hear about. But this is big, and I-I'm not stupid, all right? I know. I wasn't as drunk that night as you probably wanted me to be. But I do know why you weren't really around much for the early part of Pasha's pregnancy, or, well, all of it now." Jane leans forward and waves both her hands mockingly. "Surprise. She had her kid. A girl."

Jane's lips twitched. "With one hell of a name. Kid is going to have a lot cut out for her with a name like that one, but she's got two impressive parents, I think she can handle it. Lissandra Venyova." She wrinkled her nose and shook her head, chuckling. "I know, right?"

Jane falls back in the chair and rests her cheek on her closed fist. "I miss you. So fucking much right now, it's not even funny." Bones doesn't move. If her chest wasn't rising and falling, she might as well of been dead. Jane didn't know if she could hear her or even sense her presence. For all she knew, the magic behind this could have rendered the outside world impenetrable and there was nothing Jane could do to fix it.

Kissing hadn't fucking worked after all.

"Seeing Pasha like that kind of brought it all home how few of us are here and who we're missing. Sulu would have been- She would have already managed to spoil little Liss rotten and I'm not even sure how but it would have happened, we both know that."

Jane drags her fingers through her hair. "I swear to God, Bones, I never know what I'm doing anymore. If what I'm doing is enough, or if I could be-" She closes her eyes and let's out a quiet sigh, "Should be working harder at getting us home."

Bending forward, Jane dusts a kiss over Bones' forehead and then stands. "I've got to get back to the clinic. At least I can do something right. For one of you."
