literally him
Folks in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something. That there’s some good in this world. And it’s worth fighting for.
Stephen had just wrapped up his last surgery. He had an opening for a few hours to finish up some paper worknsince the eight hour surgery was done in just five.
He opened the door to the office and was about to close the door when he noticed someone sleeping on the small couch. They were in scrubs, hugging one of those decorative pillows that Christine got him as a way to make his office more inviting.
Sighing, he clears his throat loudly before speaking. Startling the sleeping figure awake.
" Look, I get it. I've been there and done that. But sleep in the break room or one of the closest. Not in my office where patients come in, mister...."
" Oh! I am so sorry! Uh, Peter . Didn’t mean to fall asleep, came in, and dropped off some paperwork. But this couch was so comfy! No excuse, though. "
" Yeah. Get out."
Then Stephen started seeing the guy almost every time he worked now. Stephen would think it's stalking if it wasn't for the fact that it's HIM walking into the room and spotting this Peter guy.
Peter, who is always with a tablet or notebook. Peter talking to a wide variety of people. Peter getting coffee for the nurses at the station. Peter laughing at a bad joke that Jeff from accounting, who was trying to flirt. Who laughs at his jokes? They are horrible. Peter was too good looking and too NICE it seem to think Jeff from accounting was funny.
Finally, after a few weeks, he is sitting with Christine at a table in the cafeteria when Parker walks in to get in the lunch line.
Nodding towards Peter, he asks Christine.
" What's the deal with that guy? I keep seeing him around."
Christine turns around to see who he is speaking about.
" Oh! That's Peter. He is here because of the research grant he received. They should be starting the trails in a few weeks. Wait. - You should know this?"
Stephen frowns.
" Why should I know this?"
" Stephen! He developed the synthetic webbing that, if successful, will help with repairing nerves. You requested this grant to be approved because you think it will help you..."
Stephen stares at Christine for a moment before looking at Peter. Peter, who is actually Dr. P. Parker, who has several masters and doctorates. Peter who was laughing with the lunch lady as he opened up two extra sugar packets to put in his already sweet hot chocolate drink he ordered.
Peter, who Stephen kicked out of his office and had avoided interacting with.
" Shit"
I love the fix-its. I love the AUs. I love the missing moments. I love the canon compliants. I love the canon divergents. I love the drabbles. I love the song-fics. I love the crack fics. I love the smut fics. I love the crossovers.
I feel like pirating media that isn’t sold or offered anywhere legally anymore shouldn’t be called piracy. Girl thats archaeology
A bad photoshop will always be funnier than an AI image no matter what
26yo, Brazilian. Back to this site after years, still getting the hang of it and feeling old. (I multiship; It may not be of your liking.) She/Her 🩷💜🩵
