    Summary

    “I’m thinking of ending things.”

    James pressed his lips together hard as he fought the urge to suck in a breath at the words. He instinctively reached for his binder of prepared materials and began to flip through it as if it would have the answer, rustling the pages frantically as he did.

    “Hello?”

    James flinched. “Um, hi, yes sorry it’s uh-- it’s my first day.”

    A pause. Then, dry as a bone: “Brilliant. You’d think they’d at least train you to tell people not to kill themselves before handing you a phone.”

    James froze, then panicked. “Oh God-- you’re right, I mean, of course-- I didn’t-- oh, shit, I just--”

    James’s rambling was interrupted by a quiet sound, over so quickly he almost missed it.

    The caller had laughed.

    At him.

    OR

    A muggle college AU where James is a Psychology student who starts working at a crisis center. His first caller is dry, guarded, and somehow familiar, despite being a perfect stranger. Night after night their conversations continue, blurring all the lines between them, until the caller finally makes a choice that changes both their lives forever.
