Series: Part 9 of Neal Caffrey Whumptober 2024 Summary:

Peter reties the tie, securing the blinds once again, before going back to the bed, retaking his seat. He takes a cold, limp hand in his, pressing his fingers against the wrist. He hated the sound of the beeping, it was too…mechanical. Too distant. The feeling of the pulse under his fingers felt real, steadying.

“I don’t know why everyone asks so many questions about the window. It’s not that weird, is it? If it wasn’t broken, I wouldn’t have to tie it up.”

The golden light was starting to fade, a shadow starting at the corner of the bed by its occupants' feet. Peter wanted to grab it, to pin it in place.

aka Neal gets a head injury while on a mission because of a risky move to save Peter, and the fic follows Peter waiting for him to wake up.
