    Summary

    "So, can you just tell me why you hate me?” the demanding prick urges, and Aaron opens his mouth to list all the reasons, but suddenly, he can’t.

    Robert looks at him like a bird thrown out of its nest and Aaron’s tongue doesn’t cooperate, because what exactly could he say? I’ve watched you kiss a dozen girls, and it pissed me off for some reason, then once you looked at me like I was an eight wonder of the world AND THEN you fucked off for three years. Now you’re back all gorgeous and talking about your grand life like nothing happened, and I, I-

    Summary

    Of her stepchildren, Robert is the one Diane knows the least. She loves him, truly, likes him a lot (when he's behaving himself), and her heart really does ache for him when things go wrong. And somehow, for Robert, things often go wrong.

    Aaron is good for Robert. It seems odd to say, because her first impression of Aaron Dingle (Livesy, at the time) was that he was a no good thug, and that he was going to corrupt young Victoria. He's grown into a fine young man now, still a bit hot-tempered, but he's steadfast and more levelheaded than she'd originally given him credit for, that's for sure.

    He and Robert seem to mellow each other, soften their sharp edges when they're together, let a little light through the dark clouds that hover endlessly over them both. Which is why she's doing what she's doing.

    Summary

    “Oh, good, you’re all here!” Ruby comes ‘round the bar to join them. “I needed people to see the wine being enjoyed, and I thought who better to do it than the wine club?”

    Robert isn’t sure when they started being referred to as a club. It’s juvenile and stupid and it sends a warm, fluttery feeling through his core because these are his friends.

    Summary

    “If you stare any harder,” a voice says, startling Frank where he stands leaning against the charge desk with his arms tightly folded across his chest. “You’re gonna burn a hole through the back of Dr. Miller’s head.”

    He glances over at Dana, where the charge nurse mirrors his position, and emits a soft grunt in response.

    It wouldn’t be the end of the world.

    --

    Or, when a new doctor at PTMC shows interest in Mel, Frank is forced to confront his feelings for her.

    Summary

    Aaron tracks Robert’s face, lingering on the bruise there left by his own fist. It’s only here, in the low light of their bedroom, that Aaron sees it properly, sees how it covers most of Robert’s cheek, how it has bloomed into a more purplish mark.

     

    a little coda to the events of corriedale.
