   Summary

   Engineer never thought he’d fall for Medic. Hard. The man was borderline insane but also…charming in his own strange way. What started as casual admiration grew into something more. Every single day, Engineer quietly hoped that the "thing" they have could blossom. And it did. Temporarily.

   Then Medic left. Betrayed him. Was everything they had just a facade? Did Medic just used him for his own personal gain? Heartbroken, Engineer tried his best to move on but the two will meet again. This time they actually take the chance to talk.
