From the 25 Days of Christmas Romance Challenge
Day 6: Character A and Character B meet in the ER on Christmas Eve. (Please read my PSA. I won’t fill all prompt of this challenge.)
OTP: Mockingnerd/Simmorse BROTP: Fitzsimmons (They’re nothing more than friends here. Just in case that wasn’t clear.)
Big thank you to @dilkirani for the beta, and quick shout out to @memorizingthedigitsofpi, because I may have stolen a little detail from her amazing fic “A June Wedding” (If you haven’t already: READ IT!)
Sneak Peek:
Bobbi pulled back the curtain and stepped into the small examination room. She paused for a moment, looking at the young couple that seemed unaware she had entered, entirely absorbed in an argument of sorts.
“You asked me to fix it!” said the young man sitting on the hospital bed and pressing a cloth soaked with blood to his forehead.
The young woman standing next to the bed threw one hand in the air. “Yes, well, I didn’t think you’d be so reckless about it!”
“I was plenty careful. It’s the bloody apartment with its ruddy lack of structural integrity!”
Bobbi decided that maybe she should move on with her workday. She cleared her throat, causing the woman to stop mid “Oh plea—!”
Both their heads shot in Bobbi’s direction, both with a rather deer-in-headlight expression.
“Leopold, I’m Bobbi Morse,” Bobbi introduced herself, taking a look at her clipboard.
“Fitz,” both of them replied in unison, causing Bobbi to squint in confusion.
“I prefer Fitz,” the man muttered at the same time the woman said, “He prefers Fitz.”
“Oh.” Bobbi couldn’t quite suppress an amused smile. “And you are?” she asked the young woman.
“I’m Jemma.” Jemma’s lips pulled into a beaming smile that caused her soft whiskey-brown eyes to sparkle. Bobbi couldn’t help but get lost in the deep golden ocean for a moment until she remembered the woman hadn’t arrived at the ER alone.
