Tumblr media
Robert Valentine had a plan. He’d graduate from college, sail around the world and then settle down to live out the Valentine legacy of working in the family business. His father also had a plan, and it featured only two of the three items on his list.
Unable to say no to the strict man who’d raised him, Robert gave up his dream of feeling the wind in his hair on the open seas. A chance encounter in Greenwich during summer break from Wharton further altered his plans.
A year later, he was married to a woman who not only shared his love of adventure but actively encouraged his carefree side. Becoming parents hadn’t been part of the plan, at least not so soon after getting married. But fate had other ideas.
As they stared down at the two tiny humans behind the glass of the nursery at Newport Hospital, he gently hooked one arm around Olivia’s waist. The boy was restless while the girl was asleep, their hands lightly touching.
“They’re beautiful, aren’t they?” Olivia murmured, still tired, her head resting on his shoulder.
Even though they’d known Olivia was carrying multiples, seeing them was a different reality. On top of that, the twins had arrived a month early. They still hadn’t landed on names or completed the nursery in the townhouse they’d bought near his work.
“We should come up with appropriate names,” he said quietly after a while. “Can’t keep calling them Thing One and Thing Two.”
“Imagine the shock on our parents’ faces if we put that on their birth certificates,” Olivia teased, her eyes swimming with laughter.
Robert chuckled, folding his wife in his arms. Being a father would change him; it was inevitable. But he didn’t have to give up his dreams, just adjust them for two more.
Now, all these years later, Robert watched his daughter’s even breathing as she lay sleeping on the hospital bed and wished he could turn back time to when she was a baby, tucked safe and sound in his arms.
The last two days had been harrowing and emotional. The panicked call from his son in the middle of the night, the long flight to Boston from Paris, the uncertainty about Cassie’s condition, and the anger when he and Olivia were denied entrance into the hospital.
But that was all over now, he sighed in relief. His daughter was no longer on death’s door. It would take time, but he’d been assured she would recover. If he thought Cassie wouldn’t be pissed at him for doubting her precious Dr. Ramsey, Robert would’ve whisked her off to the best specialists in the world for a second opinion.
Lost in thought, he didn’t notice Cassie’s eyelids fluttering as she slowly awoke. But he heard her whimpers and the sound of sheets rustling. He was out of the chair and by her bedside seconds before her eyes drifted open.
“Hey, kiddo,” Robert smiled softly, taking her hand.
“Daddy?” Cassie said in a confused tone, her voice reed thin and somewhat raspy.
She struggled to sit up, and he placed a steadying hand on her back while pressing a control button on the guardrail to raise the bed’s head. He adjusted the pillow to support her neck and poured a glass of water when she started coughing.
“Better?”
When she nodded, Robert set the glass down on the table. He turned away to drag the visitor’s chair closer to the bed and sat down, covering her hand with his palm. They smiled at each other, matching green eyes.
“You haven’t called me kiddo since I was ten,” she commented, smiling despite the sudden discomfort under her sternum.
The machines she was hooked up to briefly beeped before settling down as the pain subsided. Robert stroked the back of her hand with his thumb.
“Old habits,” he said, taking his eyes off the flashing numbers on the monitor. “You haven’t called me Daddy since you and Max decided that word was for babies.”
“Well, I feel weak as a baby right now, so that could be the reason,” she joked, and then tears filled her eyes, dripping down her cheeks. “I was so scared I’d never see you or Mom again. ”
Robert leaned in and wiped the tears away with his fingers, shushing her the way he used to when she was five and had a nightmare.
“When I was in that room, all I could think of was the last time you took us sailing,” she continued in a watery voice. “It was just before I moved to Boston. The fresh ocean breeze tossing my hair, the taste of salt on our lips as water crashed around us. Max cursing as the unruly waves rocked the boat and almost tipped us over. Your laughter booming in the wind. That feeling of truly being alive.”
Leaving the chair, he sat on the side of the bed and folded her into his arms, mindful of the drip lines and wires.
“You are alive, Cassie honey,” he whispered over and over as sobs wracked her body, and she burrowed her face into his chest. “You’re here, safe in my arms.”
Eventually, the storm passed, and he returned to his seat. The comforting silence stretched, broken only by the beeps and hums of the machines.
“Where’s Mom?”
“At the hotel, hopefully getting some rest,” Robert explained. “She barely slept these last couple of days. Max, too. Your brother pretends to be invincible, but he was running on fumes by the time we got here.”
“Maybe if he drank coffee every now and then,” Cassie said with a wry twist of her lips.
Robert shook his head in amusement and chuckled, well familiar with his children’s opposing views on this matter and their needling of each other as a result.
“Have you seen Ethan?”
“Yes, he dropped by an hour ago to check on you,” Robert replied, hiding his disquiet at how Cassie’s eyes locked on the closed door, waiting for the other man to walk in.
He steepled his index fingers under his chin as he sprawled on the chair, stretching his legs out under the bed. “I take it you’re both still hiding your relationship?”
Robert was glad Cassie at least had the good sense to look abashed. He wasn’t happy with the turn of events, but his wife was convinced it was the real deal and they should give the couple space to work it out. Olivia’s instincts were flawless, which was the only reason he exercised restraint.
“What do you think of him?” she asked, her eyes beseeching him to understand. “You didn’t say anything during or after the weekend in Newport. I really want you to like him, Daddy.”
“He’s certainly different from Jackson or anyone else you’ve dated before,” he said neutrally. “Older, reserved, and perhaps a little austere for my carefree daughter.”
“That’s just the side he shows everyone else,” Cassie said, her voice full of conviction. “He’s different when it’s just the two of us. Granted, our relationship is still evolving, but he cares for me, deeply.”
“I know, Cassie,” Robert said, remembering the tender look in the other man’s eyes earlier. “This isn’t up for debate. But as your father, I’m allowed to be concerned. Gossip from a workplace romance is rarely kind to the woman, especially when there’s a power imbalance.”
He held up a hand when she opened her mouth to protest. “You still have two years left in your training here. All I ask is that you be careful and protect your reputation if not your heart.”
Before Cassie could respond, there was a perfunctory knock on the door, and then it swung open. Ethan Ramsey crossed the threshold and suddenly stopped, causing the nurse accompanying him to crash into his back, the tray in her hand rattling before she steadied it.
“Sorry to interrupt,” Ethan said, his brows furrowing as if sensing he’d stepped into a quagmire. “We need to draw Dr. Valentine’s blood, check her vitals and run a few tests.”
“Yes, of course,” he said, pushing the chair back and standing up. “I’ll let you get on with it while I grab a coffee and check in on Olivia.”
Robert turned to smile down at Cassie. “Why don’t I get you something to eat?”
“Well, I am feeling a bit peckish,” Cassie mused, a teasing twinkle in her eyes. “Hospital food sucks.”
“I’ll ask the chef at the hotel to whip up your favorites.” Robert leaned down and kissed her forehead. “Be good, and no more heroics.”
He nodded at Ethan, who came to stand across from him on the other side of the bed. He noted the softness in Cassie’s eyes, the concern in Ethan’s and felt like a third wheel.
As Robert left the room, he glanced at the nurse, oblivious to their situation, and hoped Cassie heeded his advice. Ethan seemed decent enough, but if he hurt Cassie…. Well, when it came to his children, all bets were off.

Author’s Notes: Bree, we love you and want to wish you a Very Happy Birthday. This was a joint effort between: @a-crepusculo​; @bex-la-get​; @danijimenezv​; @genevievemd​; @jerzwriter​; @liaromancewriter​; @lucy-268​; @potionsprefect​; and @writer-ish​
Birthday Surprise
Prologue
Dr. Ethan Ramsey had many talents; planning a birthday party for his partner, Dr. Lilac Allende wasn’t one of them. As much as it would hurt his ego to ask for help, she was more important. So, he found himself seeking assistance from the unlikeliest of sources: Dr. Casey MacTavish who was a close friend of Lilac’s and his teammate, Dr. Tobias Carrick’s girlfriend.
Casey, of course, took over and the idea of a simple birthday dinner snowballed into a surprise birthday party on the eve of the medical conference that Lilac was speaking at close to home. Before Ethan knew it, Casey and a flock of eight other women, all esteemed doctors from around the country that would be in town for the conference, took over the celebration.
Ethan had certainly heard Lilac mention them all before; apparently, they were all founding members of Future Women Leaders in Medicine, so they couldn’t really be bad, he thought. Right?
The ecstatic expression on Lilac’s face when she saw them after walking into the restaurant where the party was being held had certainly allayed his concerns. But the way they shared secret smiles with each other and spoke in code, told him that it was going to be an interesting night.
------------------------
Charley Valentine was having a conversation with Casey when she noticed that Genevieve had stopped talking and was smiling towards the doorway. Charley turned her head to see what, or rather, who had caught the other doctor’s attention.
She smiled and grabbed a glass of champagne and headed towards the door. Lilac was standing just in the doorway next to Dr. Ethan Ramsey, who was looking just a little bit satisfied that he had managed to keep this a surprise from Lilac.
Charley hugged her friend. Lilac hugged her back and pulled her to the side. “Except for Casey, you all said that you weren’t able to get away!”
Charley laughed. “We wouldn’t miss the chance to see your speech tomorrow! It was so convenient that it fell right in line with your birthday!”
Charley handed her the champagne and turned to Ethan. “Sorry, I didn’t pass any Scotch on my way over.”
Charley led Lilac away from Ethan and towards the other eight women who were all smiles and laughter.
One of them called out, “You didn’t think we’d miss this, did you?”
Charley tapped her glass.
“Now that we are all here, I’d like to propose a toast to Lilac. Youngest Director of Diagnostics at Edenbrook. First one of us to be asked to present the keynote speech at a major conference. I’ve been in awe of you ever since I read about how you stood up to big pharma in your intern year, and I’ve loved sharing ideas with you for the past few years in FWLM. Thank you for all you do.”
Lilac hugged her and Charley looked around. “Who’s next?”
Silence permeated as the group of intelligent, fearless women, all masters in their field, looked at each other awkwardly and then — horrors — even giggled slightly. Apparently none were immune to the possibility of a little bit of stage fright.
“Oh, for Pete’s—” A tall redhead looked up from her phone and shook her strawberry waves. “Guess it has to be me, then, amiright ladies?”
Lilac caught eyes with Dr. Brooke Spiers, colleague and friend, and bit her lip as she held back a smirk, accompanied by a mock-disparaging headshake.
“Didn’t think you’d ever be one to say no to being the center of attention,” she called out as Brooke strode to the front of the group, wobbling only slightly in her heels.
Ethan, who agreed with his girlfriend’s assessment of the...outspoken Dr. Spiers, only snorted.
“You know me,” Brooke responded with a wink, holding her champagne glass high. “This is to Lilac. My first friend at Edenbrook during that tumultuous intern year—”
“—Yeah, until you ditched me to fast track to your cardiology fellowship—”
“—I said first friend, not last or only; god you’re a needy bitch.” Brooke paused as the room laughed at her snarky candor, Lilac the loudest of them all. “Also, I don’t think the words ‘fast track’ and ‘cardiology fellowship’ have ever been used in the same sentence, but thanks for the vote of confidence, babe.”
“Anyway,” she looked pointedly at Lilac, “what I was saying was, there is no greater gift in my mind than being able to toast this ultimate gem of a woman. The best and brightest in your field, the better half of one of the greatest medical partnerships known to man—”
Ethan rolled his eyes but, as he couldn’t dispute Brooke’s assessment, he simply pulled Dr. Allende closer instead.
“—and the most loyal and amazing person I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing.” Brooke smiled warmly, her eyes sparkling with mirth and affection. “Love you, girl. Thanks for all you’ve taught me and all you continue to do to have my back. To have all our backs.”
She raised her glass up in the air. “To Lilac!”
“To Lilac!” the room echoed, a unanimous affirmation of Brooke’s words, as the toastmaster in question downed her glass of champagne in one gulp, the other arm wrapped around Lilac, who had come in for a quick, grateful embrace.
“Alright!” Brooke turned to the group as she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, one arm still around Dr. Allende’s shoulders. “Next?”  
“Eh-hrm,” a young woman with cascading, blonde hair caught everyone’s attention as she got up from her seat and sauntered to the front, taking her place where Brooke had stood previously. “I have a few words for our dear friend Lilac.”
An impish smile on Lilac’s lips grew wider while she gazed affectionately at her fellow friend, Dr. Marchia Bisognin.
“That’s my girl!” the birthday girl exclaimed loudly, hands clapping, unable to contain the tender pride expanding in her chest. Three years ago, Marchia wouldn’t even be able to stand in front of two people, let alone a small crowd. Yet, now, she found confidence, poise in herself—all thanks to Lilac.
“When I met you at that World Health Summit, I knew you were bound to get me into some trouble, babe,” Marchia shrugged, words laced with a hint of amusement, allowing a sheepish grin to spread across her face. “And I bet you’re going to get us into some shenanigans, too, tonight!”
A tide of uproarious laughter escaped the flock of beautiful women once again.
“But all of us wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you, my dear,” she continued, a warm smile trembling to be released. “So, let me raise a toast to one of the most inspiring, brilliant, and thoughtful individuals I have ever known, Lilac Valentina Allende.”
Everyone cheered as Marchia raised her own glass, glittering under the golden light.
“May your life be filled with love, happiness, and of course,” she paused for a moment, a mischievous gleam evident in her eyes. “Lots of incredible, mind-blowing sex, because Lord knows you’re insatiable, babe.”
Lilac laughed out loud, while her handsome companion—the ever-stoic Dr. Ethan Ramsey—tried to hide the flush spreading across his cheeks that threatened to embarrass him.
Marchia approached the brunette doctor, lips curved into a beaming smile. Bodies crashing in an overjoyed hug, she leaned into her and added, “We all love you, babe.”
“Alright, who wants to go next?” Marchia asked, looking back at her friends and associates.
“Now that I’ve had a drink and I’ve loosened up a bit, I will.” Victoria stepped forward as everyone chuckled.
“This could take a while.” Lilac muttered.
“I’ve kept it short and sweet,” she quipped. “The first time I met Lilac, I nearly didn’t make it to the conference as my alarm didn't go off. I was running super late and only made it when someone held the door open for me to get into the lecture hall. It’s fair to say Lilac found it amusing which is why we sat next to each other and since then it’s been nothing but laughter and smiles.”
“You are the funniest and nicest person I’ve ever met and I’m so glad I am able to call you my friend. I can’t wait to move to Boston next year with Ben and I’m so excited that we’ll be in the same city. And Ethan, if you ever hurt her, just know that you’ll have to deal with all of us. Cheers!” Victoria raised her glass smiling.
“Wow, that really was short and sweet.” Lilac laughed.
“I don’t make promises I can’t keep.” Victoria laughed. “Who’s next because I really want to get started on that buffet.”
“I’ll go,” said a young woman with bright red hair.
Natalie stood up, grabbing a nearby glass of champagne as she began her speech.
“First of all, happy birthday, Lilac. I hope this one, followed by every one after, is memorable and full of happiness! I’m so lucky to be surrounded by some of the most incredible women I’ve ever met. And, while I already knew Gen, Casey, and Charley from school, I never would have met everyone else if it hadn’t been for Lilac bringing us all together.”
“Lil, you light up every room you walk into and you’re the most badass bitch to ever walk this earth.” Natalie raised her glass towards the birthday girl. “I’m so proud of you and I’m so grateful to call you my friend. Happy birthday, babe. To Lilac!”
Everyone else followed suit, echoing her sentiments with their glasses raised in Lilac’s direction.
“All right, who’s next?” said Natalie.
“I’ll go!” Another blonde stepped forward, holding her glass high in the air.
“My dear friend, it’s truly been an honor to know you and watch you become the amazing doctor you are. I remember the first day we met, when Patrick introduced us when I went to visit him at UCLA. He said ‘I know you two will get along great’. Which I admit, I wasn’t completely convinced, because you were so outgoing and confident. I was the opposite. But, he was right. A shock, to us both I’m sure. Because when is he ever right?”
Genevieve giggled, causing Lilac to laugh as well. A knowing smile on both their faces.
“And I’m glad he was. Because knowing you has changed my life for the better. You’ve taught me so much, inspired me with your bravery and strength to never give up. And I thank you for that. So today of all days, I am so happy to celebrate you, Lilac Allende. Happy birthday!”
Gen tilted her glass towards her friend, smiling brightly.
“Okay who wants to go next? Because if I keep talking I’ll start crying.”
Dr. Cassie Valentine was too busy flirting with her fiance, Jackson, to notice her friends looking at her with amusement. If it hadn't been for Brooke loudly clearing her throat behind her and Casey tapping her feet to capture her attention, Cassie would have missed the entire point of the evening.
Glancing sheepishly at everyone, she stepped up to join her friends near the front of the room, grabbing a glass of champagne on the way.
"When my fellow Hopkins alum Vic first told me about Lilac and how she'd make a great co-chair for the Future Women Leaders in Medicine initiative, I was skeptical," she said, shrugging her shoulders.
"Sure, I'd heard about her exploits as an intern and her appointment to lead the famous Edenbrook Diagnostics team. But internal medicine always thinks they understand the human body better than psychiatry does the mind, so I kept my counsel. However, one meeting was all it took for me to realize that she is everything that people said she was, and a whole lot more than they can even fathom."
"She would be perfect," said Cassie with a laugh, "if only she'd realize that running actually is good for you rather than complaining endlessly about it. I love her anyway and couldn't ask for a better co-chair. To Lilac and defying expectations, one giant step at a time. Happy birthday, babe!"
With that, Cassie raised her glass in a salute and smiled at the woman whose lifelong friendship she’d treasure forever.
“Jill, Casey?” she asked, glancing at the two women left. “Which one of you wants to go next?”
“I’ll go.” Jill grinned radiantly and walked confidently to the front.
“Jesus Christ,” Ethan muttered under his breath. Jill was like the little sister he never wanted, so he could only dread the kind of speech she had prepared.
Jillian ran a hand through her ginger bronze hair as she joined the group of women, took a deep breath and faced the crowd with grace.
“When I came to visit Ethan all those years ago, the last thing I expected was to see him completely enraptured by an intern. I had known Ethan for years, and the Dr. Ramsey I saw was nothing like the one I knew. It was like I was staring at the best version of his grumpy self. Because that’s what Lilac did to him, she brought out his best. They weren’t together then, but I clearly remember thinking, ‘I have to get to know her’. Of course, Ethan being Ethan tried to prevent it, but he should’ve known most of the time I get away with what I want.”
That earned a few half-hearted laughs among the crowd. Even Ethan’s lips were slightly curled upwards, “I hate you.”
Jill smirked, but refrained herself from teasing Ethan further. This was for Lilac. She shook her head softly and focused once again on her speech for her friend.
“The moment I met Lilac, everything just clicked in my mind, it all made sense; I understood why my brother’s best friend was so floored by her, and honestly, so was I. With her quick wit and undenying charm, Lilac has a warm aura that just pulls you in, whether you’re a patient, a colleague, or a stranger; she has a way to make everyone feel cared for. Along with her brilliant mind, she has a heart of gold.”
“It’s been an honor getting to know her professionally, but even more personally, and I feel so grateful for her,” the ginger-haired doctor sent her a dazzling smile, “Lil, my darling, you’re one of the best things to ever happen to all of us. You made us a family, one that I would never change for anything in this world. Without you, I wouldn’t have met these wonderful ladies, and none of us would be the women we are today. You’re an inspiration to all of us.”
“So, on this day, I want to toast to you, to celebrate all that you are, in all your wonderful glory. Here’s to Lilac Allende, the most brilliant and promising doctor her age, and the best friend a girl could ask for. I hope we get to celebrate by your side many years to come. I love you, Lil. Happy birthday,” Jill raised her flute and took a demure sip.
“Jill, amiga!” Lilac pushed through and gave her a huge hug, the gesture speaking enough for both of them.
“That wasn’t so bad,” Ethan looked relieved.
“Figured I would save the humiliation for your birthday,” Jill winked at him, causing him to scoff. “Besides, this is for Lilac, not for you. Wait for your turn, old man.”
“Hilarious,” he rolled his eyes.
“Don’t call victory yet,” Jill whispered, pointing covertly to the last blonde. “Casey still can. And you know she’s the… wildest of us.”
Liliac stretched her neck to survey the room, she raised an eyebrow and smirked when she caught Casey, giggling at something (likely inappropriate) her boyfriend Tobias was whispering in her ear.  
“OK, MacTavish, can you save that mierda for later and get on with honoring me?” Liliac winked, “Some of us want to get to drinking and dancing, girl.”
Embarrassed, Casey jumped up from her seat, straightening her dress as she made her way to the front of the room.
“Hey, they were just saving the best for last,” Tobias heckled.
“Oh, Jesus, she’s not going to let him speak, is she?” Ethan grumbled.
Both women looked at their partners and all laughed when they playfully chided “Shut up!” at the same time.
Casey looked at Lilac and smiled, “We’ve gotta keep them in line!”
Lilac raised her glass and smiled, “You know it!” she said before downing her glass.
“Hey, wait! We didn’t finish the toast yet!” Gen called out, a half-filled champagne glass in her hand.
“She’s the birthday girl, she can do whatever she pleases,” Casey winked, “but, uhm, waiter, can we get a refill over here… for her? Thanks.”
“Anyway, I met Lilac poolside, during a conference in Key Biscayne our last year of med school,” continued Casey. “I remember thinking, who is this woman trying to one up me in that hot red bathing suit she had going on? But I didn’t actually meet her until we both made our way up to the bar to get one of the Penicillin cocktails they had lined up…”
She shrugged. “Hey neither of us named it… we thought it was tacky too.”
“Back to the story, some obnoxious man saw us approaching and he ran over and grabbed one of the two remaining drinks just before we arrived. We stared at each other, torn between our good-girl sides that were telling us to be polite, and our ‘I’m a broke med school student here for the free booze’ sides that really wanted to fight the other for the drink. Fortunately, a very handsome bartender named…”
“Miguel!” Lilac yelled.
“That’s right!” Casey laughed. “Miguel came up and said ‘Don’t worry ladies, there’s more where that came from.’ He placed a tray before us and walked off. Lilac and I looked at each other and, at the exact same time, said, ‘You take the drink, I’m going to get him’.”
All the women hollered at the punch line.
“That’s right!” Lilac laughed.
“Well, who won?” yelled Tobias as Ethan covered his face with a groan.  
“That’s not the point,” Casey smiled.
“Ah, that means Lilac won,” Tobias winked.
“Oh, Jesus, Christ…” Ethan sighed.
“It’s OK, babe, it was a long time ago,” said Lilac, patting his knee.
“Be that as it may,” interrupted Casey, “That was the day I knew I met an exceptional woman. Someone who knew when to be serious, knew when to have fun, someone who knew right from wrong and was going to fight like hell to make this world of medicine, the world itself, a better place.”
Casey raised her glass.
“Since then I have been proud to call her a colleague, but it is an even bigger honor to call her a friend. So, ladies and gentlemen, if you would please raise your glasses to the woman, the doctor, the legend… Lilac.”

Pairing: Bryce Lahela x Casey Valentine (F!MC)
Word Count: 3K
Taglist: @kiteplayschoices @brycelahelalover @obsessedheehee @eleanorbloom @fuseboxmusebox @rookie-ramsey @princesslahela @deansmyapplepie
⚠️ Disclaimer: This fiction deals with themes of miscarriage/baby loss. If this is a sensitive topic for you please do not read any further. I would hate to trigger something within you that sends you into a spiral of negative emotions. I care for each and every one of you guys and would never want to negatively affect any of you so please. Is this is a sensitive topic. DO NOT read any further and I will be posting another fiction soon that is much lighter and happier in nature that you can hopefully enjoy. ⚠️
==========
The halls of Edenbrook Hospital didn’t look nor feel the same, as Bryce Lahela, normally a confident and flirtatious young man walked through them on the way to retrieve a patient for surgery. Normally, he would head towards the room with optimism, whistling a little tune and greeting others with cheerful hello’s. But today was different. He wasn’t just retrieving any patient, he was retrieving his girlfriend and fellow medical colleague, Casey Valentine. As he entered the room, the sight was enough to make him close the door and lock it behind him. Upon hearing the sound, Casey turned her head to the door and gave him a saddened smile as tears ran silently down her cheeks. He didn’t say anything as he placed the piece of paper he was carrying on the side and sat next to her. Sweeping her into his arms in a massive bear hug as she broke down sobbing violently into his shoulder.
“I’m so sc-scared B-Bryce.”
He wanted to respond to her so desperately, but the words died in his throat, because the words he wanted to say weren’t going to help. Not him. Not her. Nothing about the current situation was going to be okay. So instead he squeezed her extra tight. It was only a few hours earlier that they met up and happily made their way to their next ultrasound appointment together. Laughing and joking. Discussing if they wanted to know the gender of their little one or wanted to keep it a secret until the birth, blissfully unaware that in just a few moments their world would come crashing down at the news their baby had passed away in the womb. As he pulled back from the hug, Bryce pushed a few strands of hair from Casey’s face. Both of their eyes were red-rimmed and sore. They sniffed as they looked at each other, trying not to break down again. Casey took Bryce’s hand and squeezed it tightly, bringing it to her lips and kissing it. He bit his bottom lip between his teeth to stop anymore sobs escaping his throat, swallowing them with difficulty. Just then, a knock sounded at the door.
“Casey? Bryce? It’s Sienna. I’m here with Rafael and Aurora. Can we come in?”
Bryce looked to Casey for confirmation, giving her a quick hug before moving to unlock the door when she nodded her okay. He opened the door slowly, wiping tears from his eyes on his scrubs top, the three of their friends entering sorrowfully. Bryce sat back on the bed beside Casey, Sienna and Aurora took the chairs and Rafael remained standing. 
“Guys we..” Sienna said
“There are... no words that could make this easier Si.” Aurora cut in, sounding almost like a robot.
The five of them were talking and sobbing when a figure blocked the light from the hallway.
“What’s going on here?”
“Dr. Ramsey.” Sienna acknowledged sadly, nodding to the bed.
Ethan looked passed her and felt a pang in his chest when he saw Casey and Bryce. Their eyes the reddest out of everyone’s.
“Wh-what’s happened?”
Casey sniffled and pointed to her chart at the foot of her bed. Ethan moved, swiftly snatching it up, his whole demeanor changing as he read it.
“Casey. Bryce. I-”
His gaze moved between them as his own words became caught in the back of his throat. He knew how much this had meant to them. Especially Bryce, he was so happy and determined to be the best dad he could be to this kid. And now that had been ripped from them. From him. Bryce, stood with a sigh as he wiped his eyes and binned the tissues he had been holding.
“We should get you to surgery Cassie.”
“Wait.” Ethan commanded, everyone turning to look at him. “They’re making you work this surgery?”
“Nobody’s making me Dr. Ramsey. I want to do this. For myself. For Casey. For our child. I-”
“Bryce. That is absurd. You need to take the rest of the day. No, week off. Clearly.”
“Ethan. Some things aren’t that simple. You should know that more than anyone.” Casey squeaked before breaking down again.
Ethan looked at her. “You have 4 months off. Don’t even bother trying to dispute it. It’s paid leave. I suggest you do the same Dr. Lahela and try to get some time off to be with her. She’s going to need you as much as you’re going to need her.” With a gentle pat on Bryce’s shoulder, Ethan replaced Casey’s chart before turning on his heel and exiting the room. Aurora, Rafael and Sienna stood to one side as Bryce wheeled Casey out of her room and down the hallways. They followed behind closely in silent support, stopping outside the O.R.  
Bryce turned to their friends and they all surrounded him as they engulfed him into a massive hug, quietly giving him words of encouragement. Just then, Dr. Tanaka came out of the O.R.
“Dr. Lahela?”
“Sorry, Dr. Tanaka. I was just coming in, my friends were jus-”
“I’m taking you off of this surgery. You can observe but I will not allow you to operate.”
“But Dr. T-”
“No buts Dr. Lahela. It’s clear the distress you’re in that has recently been brought to attention is real. Therefore, you will not operate this surgery.”
“But I-”
“Bryce.” Casey said from the bed, he went round and looked into her eyes as he took her hand. “Listen to him. Please.” Casey pleaded, desperation for him to do so in her eyes.
Bryce looked from Casey’s gaze to Dr. Tanaka’s. When he looked back at Casey, he sighed. “Fine. I’ll observe.”  He said with a sniffle, Casey squeezing his hand and giving him a small and grateful smile. He nodded at her and watched as she was wheeled in to be prepped. Aurora and sienna gave Bryce one last hug before heading off back to work, leaving Bryce alone with Rafael. Once he was sure they were gone, Bryce broke down again. Only this time worse. He cried in pain uncontrollably at the situation he and Casey were in. Rafael’s heart ached as he pulled the broken surgeon close to his chest.
“Shhh. I’ve got you man. I’m here.”
Bryce could only nod as he limply wrapped his arms around his friend’s torso, soaking his shirt with tears. The pain-filled guttural sound he made as he sobbed echoed in the hallway. But he didn’t care anymore. He was hurting too much to do so. It felt like someone had come along with a bulldozer and aimed it at his chest.
“Why did this have to happen to us?” Bryce asked out loud as his sobs started to subside.
Rafael opened his mouth to give an answer, but shut it again immediately as he realized he didn’t have one. Instead he just consoled the usually confident surfer dude until he was called into the O.R.
--- several hours later ---
Bryce sat beside Casey’s bedside, zoned out listening to the monitors beep. It was about the only thing keeping him together right now. Knowing that she was okay. He had been sitting there for ages. His shift finished 4 hours ago, and he’d been sitting there for 3 of them. The first hour he used to get her favourite flavored water and soft drinks. Even her favourites from both Taco Bell and Burger King. He arrived and waited by her side for her to wake up. If he didn’t have 2 other surgeries that day he would have clocked out and stayed with her all day. But it wasn’t that simple. He had his little sister back at home that he had to take care of. Of course he loved her to death and if home was really as bad as she said it was, then there was no way he was going to send her back. He needed this money to help support both of them. He was deep in thought about how they would tell Keiki when he heard groaning beside him.
“nnnnngh...”
His attention came back into focus as he turned his head towards the bed, seeing Casey opening her eyes and blinking blearily around the room.
“What? Where? ... Oh.” A sadness washed over her as she seemed to realize where she was in turn answering her own question. Bryce sadly reached out and laced their fingers together.
“Hey gorgeous.” Bryce whispered with a soft smile as he brushed his more callous thumb delicately across Casey’s knuckles. Sadness still in his eyes.
“H-hey.” Casey croaked, throat dry and raw from sleeping for so long. Bryce brought a glass of chilled water to her lips with a straw.
“Slowly now. You don’t want to hurt your throat.”
“I know. I’m a doctor, Bryce.” Casey smiled gently as he placed the cup back on the side.
“I just want to take care of you, baby.” Bryce replied, taking Casey’s hand in both of his.
“Bryce. When can I go home?”
“When the doctors clear you to.”
“B-but... I.. I need to get home and lay in my bed. I-” Casey choked up. “It’s real isn’t it? We lost our b-baby. Our-Our...” tears fell again as she trailed off the end of her sentence. Bryce hugged her, sharing her sorrow. They spent the night comforting each other and listening to the gentle beeping of Casey’s monitors.
A few days later, Casey was chilling with Keiki and Bryce on the couch at his apartment watching television when there was a knock on the door.
“Are you expecting someone babe? Keiki?”
Both girls shook their heads no. “Are you?” Keiki asked her older brother, but he shook his head too. Sighing, Bryce got up and walked to the door, looking through the spyhole. Frowning when he saw who it was, he decided to ignore it and rejoin the girls in lounging watching TV.
“Who is it?” Casey asked as she tangled her fingers in his honey blonde highlighted locks.
“Our parents.” He whispered and Keiki froze before joining Casey and Bryce on the couch. Cuddling into Bryce’s chest as he snuggled into Casey’s. They all stayed snuggled under Bryce’s king sized duvet for hours before Keiki checked the spyhole to see if they had gone. She came back shaking her head and Bryce rolled his eyes.
“Maybe... you should let them in or tell them to shove it. Both of you, together.” Casey said before heading to the bathroom. The siblings looked at each other and set their faces in a stern expression, pressing their lips in matching thin lines. Bryce looked at Keiki waiting for a nod and when she gave the signal he opened the door, facing his parents for the first time in years.
“Keiki!” their mom exclaimed and moved to hug her daughter, but Keiki took a step back with a scowl on her face, causing her mom to look at her in confusion before turning an accusatory look at her son. “You’ve poisoned her!”
“I’ve done nothing of the sort you crazy woman.”
“Bryce Lahela! You speak to your mother with respect!” their father boomed
“...No. Thank you.”
Keiki gave her elder brother a subtle smirk before turning her focus back to their parents.
“Why are you two here now? It’s been 5 years. I’m 20 now, and... and a lot happier.”
“Keiki baby..”
Bryce winced as he heard that word. It stung like a deep flesh wound that was unable to be put back together. Their parents noticed, yet only spared a look of disgust towards him before turning back to focus on Keiki.
“No mom. Dad. If I can even call you that. It took you 5 years to care about coming to find me, yet you can’t apologize to your son who has been hurting so much longer from what you done and is going through so much more.”
“Why would we care to fix things with him? He’s a surgeon.” Their father replied, saying the last word like it was pure filth.
“As apposed to what father? A lawyer who does shady dealings to keep you out of jail for something you should still be serving time for? If anyone or anything here is pure filth... it’s you two. Call yourself parents? You’re pathetic. Now get away from my apartment and never come here again. If you want to see Keiki, swap mobile numbers or emails now and contact to meet elsewhere.” Bryce responded coldly before turning around and storming back inside the apartment, finding Casey on the couch nursing her mug of lemon and ginger tea. She gave him a small, kind smile as she placed her mug on the table and opened her arms to him. Sighing he fell into her arms as shouting continued at the door before it slammed shut.
“AND NEVER COME NEAR ME AGAIN OR I’LL GET A RESTRAINING ORDER!”
Keiki huffed and stomped through the living room and into her bedroom, slamming the door behind her. Casey sighed into Bryce’s hair as she played with it, soothing his hurt and worries. She felt his breathing pattern change and tapped him hard enough to wake him.
“Honey.”
“Mmmm?” he murmured as he sat up looking around sleepily.
“Let’s get to bed. We won’t be very comfortable on the couch.”
Bryce mumbled his agreement, standing up and swaying slightly as he wasn’t fully awake but Casey caught him, holding his hand and leading him to the bedroom. Bryce laid in bed then looked up at Casey.
“Where’s our duvet?”
“On the couch. I’m just going to get it okay?” she whispered, pressing a kiss to his forehead.
She settled in next to him after covering him with the warm duvet, his arm wrapping gently around her waist.
--- Two Weeks Later ---
Bryce had successfully gotten 2 months off of work to spend with Casey, but she was missing her friends and the team she worked with so left a note for Bryce in the kitchen saying she’d pooped in for a visit and would be back for dinner. As he woke up and found the note, he also found one from Keiki in the bathroom as he walked in to use the toilet. When he read it, it was like a bomb went off inside of him. He slammed his fists on the marbled side before swiping his products on the floor with a scream of anger. Keiki’s note had told him that their parents had forced her to go home. She had promised to find a way back but... Bryce had just lost not only his sister, but his best friend. Who was he going to make sibling jokes with now. Who was he going to tease. What was he going to tell her boyfriend? Had she already let the guy know? It was all too much. Bryce stormed into his bedroom and threw open his closet, throwing on whatever he laid his hands on first then left the apartment slamming the door behind him, grabbing his keys on the way out.
He got in his car and drove to a park over 2 hours away. He needed to be alone, even though he knew he would be home for dinner and Casey would be alone. Of course deep down he felt awful for that, they had just lost their child and things were tough for them both, but in the moment he didn’t care. He needed to get away. He parked his car, then sat in it. Just as if the world knew his emotions inside, it started to rained really hard. The heavy droplets popping on the roof of his car as they bounced off, and along with them. He cried. He had so much hurt, anger, confusion... so many emotions swirling inside of him that he felt as though he was suffocating. Eventually, his phone starting lighting up as it rang and vibrated in the center console. Yet he ignored it, even when it read “My Wife 🥰” and he didn’t really care because all he felt was numbness. Eventually when he returned home, it was 3am the next day. As he entered the apartment, he heard the TV talking and found Casey asleep in his clothes, under his duvet, head on his pillow as the light illuminated her features softly. He knelt beside her, kissing her cheek.
“I’m sorry.” He whispered, voice almost breaking. “I didn’t mean to worry you. It’s just... when it rains, it really does pour.” 
Casey didn’t open her eyes, but she acknowledged his presence with a small smile and taking his hand in hers. “You’re dinner is in the kitchen.” She whispered. “Dinner isn’t what I want right now.” He replied as he lifted her in his arms bridal style. “Let’s go to bed. I want to cuddle.”
As they wrapped themselves in the comfy duvet, snuggling into each other, Casey opened her eyes and looked up into his forest brown orbs as he looked back at her. “I love you Bryce. And I’m always going to be there for you, whenever you need me.” She said barely above a whisper, bringing her hand up to cup his face. Stroking his strong, soft to the touch cheekbone with her the pad of delicate thumb. He smiled sweetly at her as he placed his hand over hers, melting into her touch. “I know. I love you too Case. More than I’ll ever be able to let you know.”
He placed a soft kiss on her forehead, Casey placing one on his toned chest. And for the first time, Bryce knew he had something he didn’t want to lose.

New Year Wishes
Premise: New Year’s Day is a special time for making wishes that come true.
Book: Open Heart (post series) Pairings: Ethan Ramsey x F!MC (Cassie Valentine) Rating/Category: Teen. Fluff. Words: 1,435
A/N: Submission for @choicesjanuary2024 Day 1 writing exercise prompt; for @choicesholidays New Year and @choicesficwriterscreations holiday event. I'm using @choicesflashfics week 66, prompt 1.
Tumblr media
Part 1: The Legend
The first snowflake fell, and with it, a new tradition began. Inside the mansion by the sea, Christmas decorations hung across the mantel. The star above the tree in the corner twinkled when the weak rays of a winter sun briefly shone through the window panes.
It was the first day of a new year, and the air was full of possibilities, like magic on a moonlit night. Flames crackled in the fireplace, spreading its warmth toward the family of four sitting by the hearth.
Four-year-old Cassie Valentine rubbed her sleepy eyes as she cuddled on her mother’s lap, content with the familiar scent and feel of her mom’s arms around her. When she heard a loud yawn, she squinted at her twin brother Max, who was similarly nestled against their father’s chest.
His blond hair was messy, flopping over his forehead; his face was practically hidden in their dad’s big arms. One green eye popped open as if sensing her gaze, and he smiled sleepily at her.
The twins protested when their parents removed them from their comfortable position and onto the shaggy rug in front of the fireplace. Cassie leaned into Max’s side, curling her legs beneath her, and yawned widely. She rested her face on her brother’s shoulder and closed her eyes.
She wasn’t sure why her parents had woken them up so early or carried them down to the family room. It wasn’t Christmas morning. She knew because Santa had already brought her and Max presents last week.
“Cass honey, wake up,” Daddy said gently, lifting her head and brushing his hand down her hair. “Your mom and I have a surprise for the two of you.”
The word ‘surprise’ made Max perk up and sit straight in attention.
“Do you know what today is?” Mommy asked, her eyes crinkled around the corners as she smiled.
They shook their heads, and she continued. “It’s New Year’s Day. Legend has it that if you make a wish, write it on a piece of paper and throw it into the fire, it will come true. Isn’t that right, Robert?”
“My old nanny told me it was so.” Cassie saw her father smile in a dreamy way she didn’t quite recognize. “And she was right. When I was your age, I wished for a life full of adventure. Then, one day, many years later, your mother spilled her drink on me. I haven’t been bored since.”
“Robert!” Mommy gasped in shock before throwing her head back in laughter and then leaning in to kiss him on the lips.
Cassie giggled, and Max groaned, making gagging sounds.
“Six years of adventure, my love,” Mommy said softly, resting her head on Daddy’s forehead. “Every day, I fall in love with every little thing that you do.”
Cassie watched her parents gaze into each other’s eyes and thought there must be something to this wish legend. And if Daddy was right, she was definitely wishing for a puppy.
Part 2: The Wish
Many years later, in an elegant condo overlooking Boston’s waterfront, Ethan Ramsey propped himself up on one elbow and leaned over his wife. He ran his finger down her cheek and brushed aside a wisp of hair that fell over her face.
“Time to wake up, love,” he murmured, watching as Cassie’s eyes drifted open.
The fogginess gradually disappeared, dreams faded and reality intruded.
“What time is it?” she asked, yawning.
“Almost eight,” he said, his lips tracing the slope of her shoulder.
The strap of her nightgown slid down her arm, almost baring her breast, and he peppered kisses along her exposed collarbone.
“We don’t have time for you to seduce me,” she protested, even as a moan escaped her lips when his hands eased the bodice down to expose her breasts to his heated gaze and pushed the gown lower.
“I’ll be quick,” he said, covering her body with his and nudging her thighs apart with his knee.
Ethan snagged her bottom lip between his teeth and nipped it before slanting his lips over hers. He’d just started to kiss his way down her body when he heard the sound of running feet.
Ethan barely had time to throw the covers on top of Cassie’s naked body when the bedroom door slammed open.
“It’s Wish Day! It’s Wish Day!”
Their five-year-old twin daughters, Sophie and Eloise, rushed in, singing the words excitedly at the top of their lungs.
“Daddy, you’re not wearing a shirt!” Sophie giggled.
“Girls, what have we said about knocking?” Ethan swung his legs off the bed to sit up and glared at them over his shoulder.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Cassie wriggle under the covers and then ease her back up against the headboard, the silky straps of her nightgown back in place.
“Knock first, wait for an answer and then enter,” they parroted the oft-repeated words while gazing innocently at him.
“And did you do that now?” Cassie asked, lips twisting in a half-smile as her eyes met Ethan’s exasperated expression.
“We forgot,” they said with a pout.
They launched themselves on the bed before Ethan could scold them further and started jumping up and down.
“B’sides, it’s Wish Day, Daddy,” Eloise giggled as she crashed into her sister. “It’s tra…trad…,” she stumbled over the words, “tratidition.”
“Tradition,” Ethan corrected automatically, padding into the walk-in closet.
He thought privately that his daughters were just as stubborn about celebrating traditions as their mother.
“Mommy, get up. We’ve been waiting forever to make our New Year wishes!” Sophie’s laughter mingled with her sister’s as they both bounced higher.
“Not too high, girls,” Cassie called out worriedly. “Ethan?”
Ethan returned to the bedroom, tugging a tee shirt over his head and down. He grabbed Eloise mid-bounce and then Sophie, holding each girl under his arms as if carrying a football.
They giggled when he adjusted his stance to accommodate their weight, jostling them in the process.
Cassie shook her head at their antics and shoved aside the covers to climb off the bed. She reached for the robe folded on the ottoman at the foot of the bed, and his eyes locked on the top of her breasts framed enticingly between the vee of her gown’s neckline.
She caught his stare and arched one brow. “To be continued tonight?”
After a quick glance at their daughters, now preoccupied with whispering to each other, he smirked.
“I’ll get them settled while you freshen up. Don’t take too long or…,” Ethan grinned lasciviously, scanning her from chest to crotch, “…else.”
Almost twenty minutes later, the four of them settled in front of the fireplace. Ethan wrapped one arm around Cassie’s shoulder while hers slid around his waist. The twins were nestled between them, their tiny bodies practically vibrating with excitement.
“Ready to make your New Year wish?” Cassie asked.
Eloise looked questioningly at her sister. Sophie nodded in confirmation. They both turned around and stared at their parents. Ethan noted their thoughtful expression and wondered what that was about.
“If we both make the same wish, does it come true twice?” Eloise asked.
“We want a dog,” Sophie piped in.
Ethan grinned when Cassie muttered, “Get in line” under her breath.
He knew a puppy had been on her wish list for years. In fact, if he recalled the tale correctly, it was her first wish when Robert and Olivia started the annual New Year wishes tradition.
“Why don’t you send the wish into the fireplace? You never know when the universe will grant your wish,” he added, keeping his face neutral when Cassie hissed, “Hogwash!”
“It might take years,” Eloise said, angling her head sideways as if lost in thought.
“Just like it took forever and ever for Grandpa Robbie to get his wish when he met Grandma Livvy,” Sophie added excitedly. “El, we’re getting a dog for sure!”
“And another tradition continues,” Cassie laughed as the girls babbled excitedly while scribbling their wishes on paper.
Ethan rolled his eyes in exasperation. “Times like this, they’re more Valentine than Ramsey.”
“I disagree,” Cassie snorted, laughter in her eyes. “But then I’m biased since I fell in love with a Ramsey.”
Ethan gently grasped her chin and lifted her face to gaze into her eyes. His mouth lowered and captured her lips in a tender, heart-wrenching kiss, losing himself in the magic of the moment.
Eloise and Sophie stopped writing to watch their parents kissing, shared a furtive glance and silently giggled. Forget the dog. Maybe they would get a brother instead.
