It's An Idea That Has Been Rattling Around In My Head For A While - Tumblr Posts

for the ask game:

"I'm pretty sure that wasn't supposed to happen."

Sorry about the wait! I also went in the direction of a rarepair... Hope that's OK. If not, I can try to re work it or you can send in a different sentence. (Also I tweaked to the prompt a bit.... just put in a comma instead of a period. Hope that's OK.)

"I'm pretty sure that wasn't supposed to happen," Gloria states once Shannon drops her vice like grip on her hand; she's marched them into a stair way, away from the hospital ward and away from prying eyes.

The plan had been to drive O'Reily crazy by pretending to date each other - it had been the only ethical plan they could come up with to get their revenge on him - and for the past few months it had been going well.

But Gloria wasn't supposed to look forward to meeting up with Shannon O'Reily, wasn't supposed to miss her company when she was gone and she certainty wasn't supposed to "accidentally" brush hands with her whenever they were close.

And Shannon wasn't supposed to kiss her - like she was dying and only Gloria could save her - in the middle of the hospital ward, in front of her colleagues and patients; Tim and O'Reily had made the most beautiful choking noise that she should actually look into when she gets back - but not right now - right now she feels giddy and warm in ways she hasn't in years.

"Want do it again?"
