Christine was having her coffee in the office lounge when Leonard almost floated in, happily, beaming. She almost dropped her cup sitting alongside Nyota, the hospital's local translator. Their heads turned in the direction of the doctor who was humming to himself while bouncing on the tips of his toes. He took out a chocolate bar from the drawer placing it into his pocket. He normally had a chocolate bar before he went to bed each night so often times he took candy from the cafeteria in packaging. It was free for hospital staff yet not to every day civilians.

"Hello, Len," Christine said. "You look chipper today."

"I am so pretty, I am so in love, I feel like I can fly," Leonard sang. "everything is so beautiful, and today is goin' to be good!" he turned away from the counter. "You won't believe who I met last night."

"Wonder woman," Nyota said.

"Batman," Christine supplied.

"Nope," Leonard said, seating himself in front of them. "I think I met the love of my life. . ." the women's eyebrows raised at once. The doctor shrugged. "Maybe?"

"Awww," Nyota said. "Are you going to date him?"

"No," Leonard said. "At least I don't think so," he happily sighed, cupping the side of his face. "he was so cute."

"That's sweet," Christine said.

"Should we?" Nyota said.

"The last time he actively went out to get someone to be with him was . . ." Christine said. "Yes."

"I haven't been around town in the past three years," Leonard said. "I know places for children. What about adults? Give me all y'all got."

The two women wore a beaming smile.

"Listen," Nyota said. "you haven't dated in several years."

"You just moved here and some adult places are questionable. . . " Christine added.

"Don't go to lovers jump," Nyota said.

"I wouldn't go there," Leonard said.

"There's a park nearby that is in between a deserted section of the city and the much more alive version. There's a tall abandoned skyscraper that makes the city from the roof look like a populated starship," Christine explained. "You can see some of the stars while laying on the roof."

"Gorgeous," Nyota agreed.

"And then there's the fair," Christine said.

"We have several restaurants," Nyota added. "though, most of the seats must be reserved."

"Bowling halls," Christine said. "you can go there without reservations."

"And then there is a BDSM club," Nyota said. "if you are interested in that kind of roleplay."

"Nah," Leonard said. "give me places that I don't have to reserve."

"There is Hill Park. Right up the road. Outside the skirts of the city," Christine said. "sure beats out ghost hunting."
