Summary
"I know what I am," Belly says.
"Do you?" Conrad's so close now she can see the exact moment his eyes shift again, green bleeding into gold, storm-cloud and starving in the middle. "Then show me."
( some places, the veil is thin. Cousins, Massachusetts is practically tissue paper. )

Rekindling Christmas by prettysailorsoldier

Summary
One year after a devastating broken engagement, Belly seems to have landed on her feet: five hundred thousand Instagram followers, a book deal in the works, and a doting—if mysterious—boyfriend. Two weeks before Christmas, however, her prospective publisher throws a wrench in her perfectly crafted life: they want to meet her camera-shy boyfriend before putting pen to paper...and her camera-shy boyfriend doesn't exist.
Enter Conrad Fisher: her forever what-if and the real-life inspiration for her fictional boyfriend, back in Boston for the holidays for the first time since literally running out of Belly's life six years earlier.
What starts as a simple arrangement snowballs into a tangled web of old wounds and even older feelings as the counterfeit couple navigates the holiday season, but who are they really deceiving?

Summary
"Agreed, negative Murphy's too. Her CT scan showed some sludge and stones but she's likely not going to need an emergent chole now, the ultrasound didn't show any CBD dilation either. We can schedule her to follow-up with you all outpatient?" Belly said, reciting back what Agnes had told her and adding in some of her own interpretation. It was a miracle her brain seemed to be working at all, as she still felt unsteady on her feet.
Conrad looked up from his list. And then, he did the unthinkable from any surgery resident who ever lived.
He smiled.
It wasn't a big smile by any means, just a slight pulling of his lips up and to the side, a crinkle appearing in the outside of his right eye.
"What did you need me for then, Dr. Conklin?" he said, and oh it was silly, and she was a whole twenty-five years old, but her cheeks were suddenly on fire and the mark on her wrist seemed to pulse even more quickly.

Summary
Five years. Letters lost in time.
She thought he’d forgotten her.
He thought the silence meant goodbye.But hope has a quiet way of staying—tucked inside the waiting.
Some love stories don’t end. They just find their way back.
˚⋆𓇼˚⊹ 𖦹 ⁺｡°
Or: Belly never received the letters Conrad wrote while she was in Paris. Now, years later, they find each other again in New York City, away from the others—and it may be the beginning, or the continuation, of what was always meant to be.

Summary
As if on cue, his laughs ricochet all over the suddenly narrow walls of the living room. Her head turns like a broken elastic band, whiplash. It is ironic that he would reprimand her for it, you can risk hyperextending your neck, Belly. And she should know better, but it would appear that her brain has been trained or rewired to respond to his voice, like an ultrasound whistle audible only to her.
Like a command.
(or: Conrad gets randomly selected to do his residency at Mass General and Belly is totally fine because there are no lingering feelings.)
