i did a silly little bowling fic. it doesn't have a title or anything but feel free to read it if you like

Mike watched Chase as he lifted the bowling ball out of the pinsetter. His muscles flexed gorgeously as he lifted that fourteen pound ball. He swung his arm backward and let the ball go. It breezed down the lane and knocked down all the pins except for one. He turned back to his spouse with a grin. When he got the ball again, he hit the last pin. A spare.

Mike sighed as they retrieved their ball. Ten pounds. It weighed heavily on their fingers. They reached the line and pathetically threw the ball toward the pins. It unceremoniously landed in the gutter. They groaned.

They turned to Chase and pouted. "At this rate, I'm going to lose by 100 points. Again."

"I can help you with the next one."

"Okay."

When it was Mike's turn again, after Chase had gotten a strike, they retrieved their ball and waited at the line. Chase came up behind them and guided their arms.

"Swing back more, and bend your knees. Like this."

Mike flustered with his touch and the feeling of his lips so close to their ear.

"You're making it hard to focus.”

"Yeah?" he asked with a hint of amusement,

"Yeah. Move away from my ear. And step back, it's hard to move my feet back.”

Chase moved back but maintained his light touch on their arms.

"Now swing and bend your knees a little."

Chase guided their arm as they swung and they let go of the ball.

"Four pins left. Not bad."

Mike grabbed their ball and swung again, this time on their own. Another one in the gutter.

They groaned and returned to their husband. They wrapped their arms around him and slid their face into the crook of his neck.

"Baby," they whined. "Why do you have to be such a better bowler than me?"

"It's not hard to be a better bowler than you."

"That's mean."

"I tried to help," he said.

"I know," Mike said as they dropped their arms and stepped back from his warm chest. "I just suck at everything sporty. I wish I was athletic like you. I'm just so awkward and clumsy."

"I think it's cute," Chase said.

"No, you don't."

"Yeah, I do," he pressed. "I like when you pout and run into my arms."

"You're making me sound like a baby."

Chase laughed softly. "And I really like helping you bowl."

"It never works. I still suck."

"Do you have fun?" Chase asked, taking his seat.

Mike looked at him as if he'd asked the stupidest question on Earth. "Of course I have fun! I'm with you. It's impossible not to have fun with you."

Chase blushed and cleared his throat. "Uh, nachos?"

"Always," Mike replied.

Chase stood and hurried to the food counter. Their eyes dropped to his ass as he walked away.

Mike could never fathom how they got so lucky. Chase was gorgeous. He was 5’10, softly muscular, and had shiny blond hair. He was everything Mike felt they could never deserve.

He returned with a smile and a plate of nachos to share.

"What?" he asked them, noticing their staring.

"Nothing. I'm just admiring how absolutely beautiful you are."

Chase looked down at himself. "I'm in jeans and a t-shirt."

"You always look beautiful beyond words."

Chase fought a smile. "Eat the nachos."

Chase won their first game 129 to 63. They still had another game to go.

Mike did as pitifully as before and Chase was still willing to help them. Maybe being awful at bowling wasn't so bad if it made their husband put his hands on them.

"I love you," he said into their ear like it was a secret between them.

“Mm. We're bowling. You're my competitor."

"Don't care."

He guided their hand back and pressed a kiss to their neck as they let go of the ball. It only knocked over a few pins.

"Hey!" Mike shouted. "You did that on purpose. You're not trying to help me anymore."

"I am!" Chase shouted defensively. "You smell so good. I can't help it."

"Yeah right."

Chase pressed another kiss to their neck. He whispered into their hair, "I'm not lying."

"Stop, there are kids here."

Chase kissed their neck again, this time long and slow. "Mm. I like how your skin tastes."

"It's your turn."

Chase kissed their neck again.

"Come on, baby, are we going to finish this game or what?"

"Okay," Chase conceded.

He bowled another spare, much to Mike's annoyance. He was just so much better at every game they played against him. Except trivia and some arcade games.

Mike knew they were going to lose.

Chase was very lucky he looked pretty when he bowled.

The way his muscles moved. The way his hair fell into his face. The grin he always flashed when he got a strike. Mike could stare at him forever.

Then it was their last turn. Another gutter ball. Pathetic. They lost 241 to 110.

"We all saw that coming," Mike said.

Chase slung an arm around their shoulder. "I love bowling with you."

"Of course you do. You always win."

"Yeah. And I love being with you."

"Shush," Mike said, grabbing the plate of nachos.

"I'll take our shoes back," Chase said. "Meet you at the car?"

"Meet you at the car," Mike affirmed.

Mike finished the nachos as they walked and threw the plate in the garbage outside the alley.

It was a chilly night. They hoped their husband would be quick about returning their bowling shoes.

Chase eventually came out and headed toward them. The breeze tossled his hair. Mike bit their lip to stop themselves from telling him how pretty he was. Again.

"Ready?" he asked them. They nodded in reply.

They got into the car and Chase pulled them out of the parking lot.

chase! top five favorite things about mike, go! ♡

It's still October.

Well, anyway.

My favourite things about Mike:

1. Their eyes. They have beautiful eyes.

2. Their smile. I love the way they smile at me.

3. How passionate they get about things they care about. They are so articulate and fierce. It's hot and a little scary.

4. Their voice. I don't care what they think about it. I like it. I don't understand why they don't.

5. How much they love me. I feel safe and warm when I'm with them. They make me feel smart and funny. They think I'm the most beautiful person on Earth, and I'm starting to actually believe that.

chase is literally lying in bed at late night reading a book about the crusades

[dudeshusband]

i really want chase to be cuddly and affectionate with me

[dudeshusband]

cutie 🥰

what's interesting about chase is that other characters (and occasionally the writers) try to say he's the exact opposite of what he is

it's always that chase screwed up or chase is an idiot when he's actually very smart

he's said to be a slacker, aloof, uncaring about patients when he really does care

he's seen as this pretty boy player type but he's not. he's only actually with two people in the whole series and he genuinely loved them both.

he's not supposed to be weird and nerdy but he is weird and nerdy.

other characters think he had a cushy life but he was abused and neglected. he had to raise himself and his sister.

they also spend a lot of time trying to go "haha look at this pretty boy! he isn't a real man. he gets regular haircuts and gets manicures" but chase is also pretty strong and athletic. he catches house's cane every time he throws it. he can tackle people and hold them back. he throws a good punch. he was able to push thirteen down some stairs and then a few feet after that (not his best moment but it wasn't hers either). he's not really prissy or anything and he's not full of himself. he's actually very insecure.

[dudeshusband]

sometimes when chase and i fight, I'll look over at him, and how cute his angry face is will diffuse the entire situation

[dudeshusband]

I love Mike.

If I make a post about it, they might believe me. I want them to believe me.

[dudeshusband]

soooo chase, saw that Mike was talking about your voice. SO! do you like to sing to them? what’s your favorite song to sing?

I don't think my voice is anything special. Mike likes it.

I like singing the silliest songs I can come up with to make Mike laugh. Sometimes they're advert jingles. Sometimes it's a stupid song neither of us like, like "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy". They think my fake Southern accent is terrible but it makes them laugh.

I sing for fun more than anything.

When Mike wants comfort, I sing something slower. As cheesy as it is, they're usually love songs.

chase loves me. he thinks I'm beautiful. he thinks I'm a good person. I'm his favorite person in fact
