Fics like Cygnus Loop

“I love you, Pete,” Ray shouted over the din of the crowd. Peter registered how sweet it was that Ray wanted those to be his last words, but only partially. He was too busy planning a way to make sure they weren’t. A gun was levelled at Ray’s head. Peter threw himself fully on top of him. “Wait,” he screamed, so desperate to be heard. By the gunman. By the crowd. By the Major. “Wait! I’ve won, right? Three warnings, he’s a dead man, I’ve won?” The crowd quietened a little. He had the Major’s attention. “I want my wish!” Peter continued. “I’ve won, you have to grant me one wish. Don’t shoot Ray.” ~ Pete tries his luck at cashing in on his wish a little early. As a result he gets a home and a family and a boyfriend who's recovering from two gunshot wounds to the stomach. *The first ~800 words of this fic are fairly movie-specific, but I don't see why die-hard book lovers wouldn't enjoy the latter part of the fic if they're willing to stick it out.
