You know what? Imma say it. I am so happy for the Bryce stand today that got their backstory at last.

THE TALENT OMG THIS IS AMAZING 😳

If Open Heart was a movie

I don’t dance - Ethan x MC

Summary: It’s the annual Edenbrook vs Panacea labs baseball game and Casey is forced to stand in for a missing player on the Panacea team – but can she and Ethan save her from an awful date with Declan Nash?

A/n: Most people know about their relationship, aside from a few interns and attendings – which explains the reactions at the end. Plus with all the angst from the first 2 chapters of book 2, I thought I’d treat us all to some semi-domestic fluff.

Warnings: None. Mentions of fake injury.

Paring: Casey Vatore x Ethan Ramsey

Word count: 2113

Special thanks to @trappedinfandoms​ for supplying me with this amazing idea and being my rock!

(As always let me know if you want to be removed or added)

“If you want to play Rookie grab a mitt, but I won’t lose” Ethan said as he stepped closer to Casey, looking down at her as she titled her head with a smirk.

“You don’t think going on a date with Nash without taking out his kneecaps, takes game?”

“You got game?” he asked matching her expression, a competitive look in his eyes and an impressed smirk on his lips.

“A little, let’s play, do the honours Elijah” she smirked as Elijah threw the bat up allowing her to catch it mid-air. Her eyes locking with Ethan’s in a silent challenge, one he willingly stepped up to as his hand circled the bat on top of hers, she scoffed and simply placed her hand on top of his, her fingers deliberately brushing his hand in an effort to make him  lose focus. He took it one further and let his fingers rest on her wrist before wrapping around the bat, his eyes looking over her. She simply smirked as her hand rested on the top of the bat, as both teams cheered and ‘ooed’ as they pulled apart.

“Game on Ramsey”.

“You’re on Vatore” were the only words they exchanged as they broke apart and Casey took her stand on the pitchers square as Ethan limbered up and got into the position with the bat, ready and awaiting Casey’s pitch.

Hey oh, play ball Hey, hey, oh

Hey, batter, batter Hey battter, batter swing I’ve got to just do my thing

It came a lot quicker than what Ethan was expecting as he completely missed the first hit, ‘strike one’ the catcher called out as Casey got ready for the second pitch, this time he hit the ball pitch-perfect, the ball went flying almost out of play as her team tried to get it back to her as quickly as physically possible. By this time Ethan had managed to run a home run, as he moved past Casey he smirked ‘better luck next time’ before he continued onto to the next base.

The suns rays passed through the air perfectly as they all swapped roles, Declan stepped up to pitch as Ethan batted, Casey couldn’t see this ending well as the two sized each other up and shared an unspoken conversation about HER as the game went on. By gods, if Ethan was going to allow his rookie to go on a date with Panaceas known creep and by the look of it neither was Casey as she distracted Nash with a small barely noticeable flirtatious gesture, which allowed Ethan to get him out in three strikes. They shared a small nod and cheer as the panacea team booed and called out foul and yet their pleas were soon squashed down as Naveen – the head of Edenbrook’s baseball team – simply reassured them it was a fair ball and tossed a thankful look to Casey who waved up at him happily and gave him a wave before jumping back into the game, getting ready to switch positions.

Hey, batter, batter Hey batter, batter swing, yeah

I’ll show you that it’s one and the same Baseball, dancing, same game It’s easy Step up to the place, start swingin

I wanna play ball now, and that’s all This is what I do It ain’t no dance that you can show me, yeah

It wasn’t long before the teams swapped positions and the score was 45:55 a ten-point distance between Panacea and Edenbrook, Casey looked up at the board with a pleaful sigh, desperate for Edenbrook to win not only for their sake but for the sake of funding. She looked up just in time to see the ball flying at her as Esme bowled, and yet Casey didn’t have no bat to hand in order to stop it in time, her instincts took over as she put her arms in front of her face and ducked out of the way, calling out for all of her baseball team to watch out as the ball came hurdling towards Declan’s shoulder. Of course, he was far too obsessed too with himself to listen to reason, as a deafening crack and curse came from his direction. “Are you okay?” she asked, stupid question but it’s human nature, as she paused the game and wandered over to him.

“Do I look okay, your stupid intern just broke my shoulder!” he snapped at her as he put a hand over his shoulder, but Casey grabbed his wrist to stop him.

Chapter One Chapter Two Chapter Three Chapter Four Chapter Five

Chapter Six Chapter Seven

To be or not to be? Chapter Six MCxHunt

Thomas sleepily sipped on his coffee, trying not to burn his tongue, whilst he made his way to the office. It was only when he reached his door that he felt himself wake up a little more because he could see that his door was already ajar. 　　"Mr Winters?“ the professor questioned as he stepped into his own office. Chris spun around in the ‘guest’ chair that sat in front of Hunts desks and stood to greet him, hand out. "Hi Tom, long time no speak” 　　The professor glanced at Chris’ hand and then back up to his smile and without a shred of emotion, he briskly walked behind his own desk and placed down the coffee and folders that he had been carrying. Chris was clearly confused and a little embarrassed by the situation and pulled his outstretched hand back into his pocket before spinning on the spot 180 to face Hunt. 　　"What do you want?“ he asked, and sat down in his chair, not once taking his eyes off of Chris. I honestly don’t get what she saw in you, he thought to himself as he remembered catching a glimpse of an article about how Chris and Hope had been spotted in Italy and Las Vegas on various dates. 　　"What makes you think I want anything?” Chris quizzed and rested a hand on the seat in front of him, he no longer felt comfortable enough to sit down. “Winters, it’s 8:00am and you’re in my office; in fact you’ve probably been here a while already?” he glanced at his watch and back up to Chris. “The cleaner may have let me in at around 7:00am, you’re slacking Thomas. I assumed you’d be here!” Chris scoffed. 　　"Yes. Well. I had a busy night and felt I deserved the lay in…“ before he could finish, Chris interrupted, "Yeah so I heard, and that’s why I’m here.” Hunt felt a blush creeping up through his face and he started to fidget with his cuffs, Perhaps Hope has already told him. Maybe he was with her when I called. They have been dating in the past after all. This film might have brought them back together again. It’s probably for the best. Though I’d rather she hadn’t told anyone about our phone call and texts from this morning. 　　Chris took the professors silence as an opportunity to sit down and continued with his point, “Basically, how much will it take for you to not do this film?” 　　Thomas couldn’t quite believe what he was hearing from Hollywoods so called Golden boy, “What makes you think I’d be taking over from you?” he questioned. 　　"I got a phone call from my agent late last night, apparently you’d contacted Holly during our rehearsal yesterday to let her know of your return to the project" Chris replied and Thomas didn’t know whether to be relieved or disgusted. Relieved because Chris obviously had no idea that he had called Hope last night, but disgusted in that he seemed to think that the professor could be bought. “I am doing this film, Chris. Find another way to woo your cast mates.” 　　"Excuse me?“ he couldn’t believe that he had said it himself to be honest, making assumptions like that were the mother of all fuck ups and Hunt should know better than to draw conclusions from nothing, but he couldn’t stop himself. That picture he’d been sent had really got to him, in fact everything about Chris Winters, got to him. Maybe it was an old rivalry from being in the same industry, or a new rivalry over a young woman? 　　"I don’t know what your problem is with me Hunt, but you’ve been nothing but rude since I arrived..” he went to raise his hand in protest to speak but Chris wouldn’t allow him to interrupt, “No, you listen to me. I don’t know what Hope has told you about us, but I would never hurt her intentionally. We have a good relationship and it won’t effect her studies.” Thomas started to blush under Chris’ strong gaze, 'of course he doesn’t think you fancy her,’ he thought to himself, 'It hasn’t even crossed his mind as a possibility.’ “To be honest, I’m actually a little surprised to think that you would even assume that someone as grounded as Hope wouldn’t be able to handle an on set romance as well as her studies. Because I can tell you this now Hunt…” 　　Thomas interrupted Chris mid flow, “That’s enough.” he couldn’t take anymore. The way Chris was talking was incredibly suggestive of a relationship between the two of them. He knew better than to immaturely take a job away from someone out of jealousy and greed, especially when it was clear to him that he wouldn’t be preventing a relationship from taking place if it was already happening in front of his eyes. 　　He dreaded the thought of having to kiss Hope on set and then see her walk away behind the cameras to Chris Winters, who would be waiting for her while he watched them act. 'He is closer to her age after all. Who am I now anyways? I haven’t been in front of a camera in a very long time. Uncomfortably so.’ he continued his nightmare in his head as he awaited Chris’ reply. 　　Chris shifted a little before talking calmly, “You’re right.” Hunt took himself out of his nightmare daydream and focused on Chris. “What do you mean?” he asked sternly. “I only want this job to woo Hope and that’s not professional. It’s also not a good reason to be a part of this project and I can’t commit 100% to a film that I’m not actually interested in.” 　　"So you and Hope…you’re not?“ Hunt paused, keeping his expression stern. "An item? Unfortunately not no, and if it makes you happier to know that I won’t be distracting one of your star pupils, I don’t think we ever will be. That boat has long since sailed, though I fancied the chance.” 　　He couldn’t figure out whether Winters’ was bluffing or if he was just being brutally honest. Now he thought that neither of them should be involved in the film, although at least Thomas was interested in the script itself. 　　"I’m sorry to hear that.“ Hunt spoke dishonestly. "However, the reason for my rudeness is due to the fact you came in hear with dishonest intentions. I’m not stupid Chris, don’t ever try to buy me again. I’m not that kind of guy.” 　　Chris stuttered and blushed as he realised his mistake, “I’m not normally either Tom, trust me on that. I just…She makes me do crazy things you know?” he looked at him pleadingly, as though looking for some kind of understanding in how he could possibly be feeling. 　　"I would never let someone change who I was, no matter how much I wanted them.“ Thomas stated. "Please leave.” he finally took his eyes off of Chris and began to shuffle folders unconvincingly, he needed him to leave as soon as possible. 　　Before he could finish his thoughts, he heard the door shut firmly and looked to see the shadow of Chris Winters, slowly sigh and shuffle away from his office. Hunt could feel himself physically shaking as a knot rose high into his throat; he felt so charged and full of negative energy, that he didn’t know what to do with himself. 　　Without realizing, he had curled his left hand into a fist and slammed it down into his desk, leaving a small crack in the wood and an incredibly painful set of knuckles. 'Arghk.’

how bout a dance: part 11

<AN> WELL HELLO THERE FRIENDS!!! Guess what week it is? IT’S SHOW WEEK(S)! Hope y’all enjoy this chapter, it’s long (as hell) but I had a ton of fun writing it. Gonna warn again for some suggestive content but we’re still firmly in the TV sitcom realm. [But I do think it’s entirely fair to mention that almost the entire beginning, as short as it may be, is a big sex mention, but that it’s a side plot development]. Anyways, credit as usual to @euphonyinestetica, tagging @pixelburied, @lilmissperfectlyimperfect, @ajaysbhandari, @itsbrindleybinch, @witchiegirl, @aidenzhous, @catlady0911, @ylevolenahs, @awkwardalbatros, @hufflepvnk, @ravenclawpokegirl25. Hope y’all enjoy, let me know if I need to edit the warnings. </AN>

The morning of opening night, Grace woke up to the smell of pancakes and the sound of laughter coming from the kitchen. Isra was nowhere to be found, which was strange because Grace almost always woke up with the cat asleep on her chest. She put on her contacts and tried to tame her bedhead, shoved her feet in some slippers, and slowly opened her bedroom door to step into the kitchen.

“Good morning, Grace!” came Mayleen’s chipper voice from the stove, where she stood in a long t-shirt making the pancakes Grace had smelled. Unable to locate the source of the laughing, Grace stepped into the kitchen suspiciously.

Tech week. Hell week. The week that made even the most experienced directors, actors and technicians tremble in fear. Ajay hadn’t gotten much sleep (any sleep, if he was being completely honest with himself) the previous night, so on Monday morning he was already running on fumes. He had a tumbler (that really more closely resembled a bucket) full of coffee, and it wasn’t even his first of the day when he got to the theatre at eight am.

His only saving grace was Emily, the stage manager who was criminally peppy for a Monday morning. She didn’t have to start calling cues from the booth yet, so she was at the table in the house with him to discuss lighting and sound options. He stifled a giant yawn behind his hand as he waited for everyone to arrive.

The sixth week of rehearsal was almost a complete disaster.

During “How ‘Bout A Dance” on Monday, Kevin tripped over his shoelaces and fell flat on his face. He was lucky to not break his nose, but he definitely ruined the mood.

Rosa caught a 24-hour stomach bug on the Tuesday of the sitzprobe, but insisted on coming in to rehearse. She had to run offstage halfway through “That’s What You Call A Dream.” Half the cast caught the bug, and Wednesday’s wander probe had to be canceled.

Andrew and Elijah broke out into a shouting match over whose pants were whose after rehearsal Thursday, leaving them both hoarse on Friday. On the bright side, they were able to represent the animosity between their characters like never before.

On Friday, Grace made her mistake. During “You Love Who You Love,” she leaned too heavily against a set piece and caused it to collapse. The set piece was strong so it survived, but she did have to endure several (well-earned) angry looks from the construction crew head.

Wednesday, during the fourth week of rehearsals, Ajay leaned back into his chair. His new non-crappy wireless speakers—courtesy of Lysander, whose day job was at a Best Buy—played “Raise A Little Hell (Reprise)” as Kevin and Elijah leapt out of the car that had just been built, brandishing prop guns and sneaking stage right.

The next week of rehearsal flew by in a haze of learning lines, memorizing blocking, and dealing with drunken pub patrons. By Friday, Grace was exhausted from working and from rehearsal. She had just barely managed to escape a leering customer at the bar when she was allowed to clock out. She wiped her hands on her apron after she hung it up, just in time to meet Rosa outside.

“How was your shift?”

“Mmmm,” Grace groaned. “Could’ve been better.”

Rosa wrapped an arm around Grace’s shoulders.

“Don’t worry; one day when you’re a big Broadway star you won’t have to do that anymore.”

Grace burst out laughing, and after a beat Rosa did too.

how bout a dance: part 6

<AN> Hey guys! Love you all. Credit: @euphonyinestetica. Tagging: @pixelburied, @witchiegirl, @lilmissperfectlyimperfect, @itsbrindleybinch, @ajaysbhandari, @aidenzhous, @catlady0911, @ravenclawpokegirl25. Let me know: is this Monday/Thursday/Saturday update schedule working for y’all, or should I slow it down? </AN>

He was probably biased, but Ajay liked Saturday rehearsals the best. Not only did the actors get to truly work with the technicians for the first time, but he loved a day that was just all about theatre. No loud coffee machines, no being on his feet for six hours, just all of his energy going into raw creativity, into building stories and worlds and relationships. This was why he loved what he did.

He had barely set foot in the lobby of the theatre Saturday morning before two teenagers came rushing in, slightly out of breath.

“Hi, are you Ajay? We’re here for rehearsal,” panted the boy. Ajay raised his eyebrows.

how bout a dance: part 5

<AN> Here’s some more!!! Every single day I get so happy that y’all are still liking this. Wow. Amazing.

The rest of the week came and went in the same way the first rehearsal did. Grace found herself blocking out scenes with Kevin, Rosa, Andrew (who played Ted, a character that definitely gave her the creeps) and Elijah (Buck). The blocking was productive, but there was still a lot of awkwardness between her and Ajay.

Every time he said anything, giving a direction or even advice, she wanted to crack a joke, or make a comment, or teasingly argue with him. Something she would’ve done years ago, in the productions they’d done together in high school. But she knew she couldn’t do that now, so she kept her mouth shut.

Ajay settled into his new desk at the front of the theatre, happy to be off his feet for the first time that day. It had been a brutal shift at the coffee shop, but now he got to go back to doing what he loved the most: directing. He stretched his legs out under the table and flipped open his copy of the script. He’d written down the previous director’s rudimentary blocking in the margins, along with a few edits he felt were prudent.

Footsteps on the theatre’s thin carpet alerted him to another presence. Without looking up, he addressed whoever it was.

Grace’s phone rang, unceremoniously waking her up at 10 on Saturday morning. She grumpily hit the ‘Accept’ button and raised it to her ear.

“Hello?”

“Hi, is this Grace?”

“Yeah. Annette?”

“Yes.”

“Oh, hi. How’re you doing?”

“Just fine, thank you. I hope I didn’t wake you up?”

“Just a little. But don’t worry. What’s up?”

“I wanted to speak to you for a moment, about our new director. Because you’re one of the leads, so you’ll be working closely with him.”

“I have to say, your resume is quite impressive, especially for being so young. You have all the qualities we’re looking for, and a good amount of experience. And it is true that we’re in a bit of a rush to finish up the hiring process. I really think you could be an asset to this production.”

“Thank you, ma’am. I’m not sure what to say, other than that I’m looking forward to working with everyone.”

“Speaking of… because we’re in such a hurry, would you mind taking some things home? Rehearsals restart on Monday, and I’d like you to be familiar with everything by then.”

“Of course,” Ajay smiled as he reached for the stack of papers on Annette Keiser’s desk. He quickly scanned the first few pages of the script, looked at the notes the old director had written down during the first two rehearsals, and flipped over to the cast list and headshots. As he combed through it, one picture stuck out. He froze.

Ok I’m rebooting this or whatever so I can save this bc it’s that best of ajay on hssca

how bout a dance: part 1

<AN> Ok… so this is the Bullshit. It’s a bit of a departure from what I normally write, but I had this idea and it kinda got stuck in my head, and with the help of @euphonyinestetica and @ajaysbhandari it kinda came to life. It’s basically a post-college ajay x mc au, where basically they broke up when he went to college and now, well… you’ll have to read to find out. I’m really excited to share this all with you guys. Projecting a total of 13 parts, major OC usage. Please please let me know what you think, Feedback is Life. Crediting: @euphonyinestetica as cowriter and fierce editor. Tagging: @pixelburied, @witchiegirl, @lilmissperfectlyimperfect, @anlashokk, @itsbrindleybinch. I hope y’all enjoy this as much as I enjoyed writing it! </AN>

The cold March wind blew Grace’s hair across her face, temporarily blinding her. She sighed with thinly veiled exasperation and reached up to fumble it into a messy ponytail with numb fingers. She hitched her scarf up to cover her exposed neck and buried her nose into it, trying to shield herself from the cold. Continuing along 43rd Street, her chapped hands made their way back into her coat pockets. She cursed her Brooklyn apartment for being so far away, she cursed the six hours she’d already spent on her feet waitressing that day, and she cursed the entire state of New York for being so damn cold.
