Those Camsten One Shots (Stitchers)

Thinking On It

Idk. I just thought of this. All rights to ABC Family. Oh, it's from Kirsten's perspective.

Sitting here, I see why I chose him. It's the way he smiles and laughs, looks at me with those green eyes that are just waiting to light up, that's one reason.

I keep identifying the reasons, day by day, hour by hour. The nicknames, the glasses, the way that his only thought seems to always be me.

There are times I can't handle it quite well though. I get confused and mad, and I can't identify anything around me. But he's there though. He sits through all of it, never getting mad. And when I'm done with my yelling or crying, he just wraps his arms around me and doesn't say a word.

There are other times as well, where I know he should be right beside me and he isn't. Times where Maggie calls him to the lab, or he's with Linus on bro's night. Those times I just try to forget him, but not even temporal dysplasia can put someone somewhere where I don't think they belong.

But he always comes back. And he refuses to leave me sometimes, as afraid as I am that he may not come back. Because with our work, we see how someone can be having fun one moment and be dead the next.

We don't let it break us. We don't let anything break us. He doesn't care if I don't say I love you that often. He gets that I just never think to say it. He doesn't find a single problem with me, even where there is a mine field of them.

And it's now that I see it. That the paths we kept trying to follow always went to one direction. No matter how many ups and downs, Cameron is beside me, and for that I will always be happy.
