Title: Running to Stand Still Note: I shamelessly stole the title from a U2 song which is both deep and meaningful unlike this drabble. Condom: Ted
“Teddy! Help me; I can’t see!”
Emmett’s panicked voice woke Ted from a light doze.
“I’m blind! Oh my God, Ted, I’m blind.”
Ted jumped from the couch and raced back to the bedroom where Emmett had been sleeping off a migraine. Finding Emmett flailing in the bed, Ted sat next to him and tried to hold him still. “Emmett, stop, you’re okay.”
“I’m not okay,” Emmett snapped. “I’m fucking blind. My life is ruined.”
Ted bit his lip to keep from laughing and gently pushed the paisley, magenta, silk sleep mask off Emmett’s eyes.
“Oh,” Emmett sighed. “That’s better.” |
