Fics like What Hurts in The Dark

Henry’s long term partner broke up with him the morning after he was shot during a charity event and paralyzed. Pez had been there every hour. He watched Henry come out of sedation, disoriented, whispering words that made no sense—except one. A name he hadn’t said in years unless he said it through regretful tears. “Alex.” Pez swallows his pride. Sits on the hospital floor, knees to his chest, and starts calling. Twelve voicemails. Some of them he doesn’t remember leaving. Some of them he wishes he hadn’t. And then he texts Alex: He’s asking for you in his sleep. Just your name. Nothing else. You don’t have to stay. But he’s already lost everything else—don’t let him lose this too.
