Disclaimer: I own nothing … so sad.
I just love me some McCoy and Chapel.
IPOD Drabble Challenge Rules
1. Pick a character, pairing, fandom you like.
2. Turn on your IPOD/MP3/Music Player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over.
4. Do ten of these and then post them.
1)Candy Rain – Soul For Real
Children, he was surrounded by children. Leonard "Bones" McCoy scoffed as his fellow crewmembers danced around to some pop tune blaring during the ridiculous party Jim had thrown to "boost" crew morale. So like the cantankerous old man he was, he sulked by the bar and nursed his bourbon. The kid singing some song about candy and love was enough to make him order another bourbon, until his head nurse plopped herself down next to him.
"Come on Len, it's not that bad. Just one dance, otherwise I'm gonna tell Kirk you've been skulking by the bar during his party!"
With a groan he acquiesced, and let Christine lead him to the floor. Something about being so close to her, as she danced and giggled at his stiff posture made him bend down slightly and kiss her. Well he'd be damned, she tasted just like candy.
2) Listen – Beyonce
Christine Chapel was done. Roger Korby may be brilliant, but he was a brilliant ass. How dare he take her research as his own, and claim she'd be nothing without him. Well you know what? Fuck him. He thinks he's made this perfect little trophy wife who'll do his grunt work and then just smile when the ass takes her ideas. Her mother taught her to be so much stronger than this. She should have known, he never really paid any attention to her unless she was wearing provocative clothes lately. Nothing around the apartment was hers, his selfish need for "comfort" or some bullshit like that made sure that it barely looked like she'd been living with him for almost a year, that she was his fiancé. Nothing. Nothing. There was absolutely nothing left here for her. And so she called the one friend she had who wouldn't question her,
"Len, could you come get me. I'm done."
3)Somebody Kill Me – Adam Sandler (from Wedding Singer)
They sat at the local bar after he'd picked her up from that ass' apartment. Half drunk and bitching about the people who'd jilted them. He'd been living out of a suitcase for nearly a month at his family's old ranch house. She'd moved in just now and they both decided that it was necessary to get rip roaring drunk and forget everything. Feeling like shit, they decided to both enlist in Starfleet and get the hell out of Georgia.
4)Come Together – The Beatles
She popped into his office unnoticed and smiled as she heard him humming along to an old terran classic. She leaned against the door frame as he continued to work not looking at her and now singing out loud. Unable to keep the giggles in she cleared her throat and lithely slinked up to McCoy and saucily sang the lyrics as well. His smirk told her everything she needed to know. She sat on his lap and twined her fingers in his hair as he commanded the computer to shut the door and turn up the volume on the music player.
"Well Mrs. McCoy, I do believe we come together quite nicely."
5)Lessons Learned – Carrie Underwood
Roger never really loved her, he loved the idea of her. A young beautiful assistant that would fawn over his every comment, and so rules be damned she began a twisted affair with the older man. And a year later she walked into their apartment to find him with another woman, and right there she knew he was another mistake. So she made a promise to herself that all the falsehoods from this crap relationship, she would use to make her strong and build better relationships.
A year later she would use these lessons to build the relationship that would last her a lifetime. Roger may have hurt her, but from all she'd learned, she found Leonard McCoy, and he wouldn't be a mistake.
6)Miss Melody – Miri Ben-Ari ft. Akon
The first time McCoy heard the melodies down in one of the rec. rooms, he raced down to find out who had been playing such a hypnotic melody. The violin melody strummed and soothed him, and at the same time disturbed him, who could be playing something so hauntingly beautiful.
The next day he sat at his desk trying to get some paperwork done, and to keep his mind off of the mysterious violinist, that Jim had dubbed "miss melody." After a while he felt himself slipping to sleep as he heard someone humming softly the violin melody he'd been hearing. He popped up from behind his desk to investigate, in his haste he bumped right into his head nurse.
"Sorry there Chapel, but do you know who's been humming?"
"Guilty."
He'd just stared at her, and she looked at him questioningly, until finally words came back to him.
"Where did you learn to play like that?"
7)Fools – Diane Birch
Woman assumed that because he was a divorcee, and a doctor and Jim Kirk's wingman, that he would be one of two things, 1) a womanizer like his best friend, or 2) the relationship guy who was sensitive. Nope, they would be wrong on all accounts, the fools thought that they could get beyond his surly gruff exterior. Little did they know, he thought to himself, that it's not just an exterior shell. His ex had made sure that he couldn't trust anyone again, or that he would be able to put everything on the line again. They lied to themselves, but McCoy was nothing if not blunt and honest. He wasn't looking for anything but bourbon. Fools.
Well Christine Chapel was no fool. She knew how fucked up his situation had been before he came to Starfleet. They'd been friends beforehand and lived together (completely platonic), she knew him, and didn't believe for one second that he was just surly and gruff, no she knew what kind of man he really was, even if he didn't see it himself. She would wait for when he could be ready again, and she wouldn't be a fool, like these little girls throwing themselves at him. She could love him.
8)Miss You Much – Janet Jackson
She hated being alone. But Joanna being 12 was having some trouble with her mother, and Leonard, knew that she needed her daddy. She'd have gone with him to fetch her step-daughter, but she was too pregnant to travel, according to Leonard. Worst of all, she missed him, his arms around her while she slept. And so due to pregnancy hormones (she told herself) she drove all their friends and family within reach outta their minds calling and complaining how much she missed her husband. And then like something out of her dream there he was towing Joanna behind him.
"Christine!!!" Joanna cried as she rushed to her step-mother's side not missing a beat and placing a tender hand on her protruding belly.
"Hey Jo! Missed you."
"Missed you too, I'm gonna unpack!! I get my own room! Ugh and I'm sorry I know she's my mother but I couldn't stand it anymore. Thank you so much you and Daddy taking me in here."
"Jo, we'll always want you, I'm glad you'll be here when your brother is born."
Joanna went to unpack and Leonard finally came to envelope his wife in his arms.
"You know honey I really missed you much."
"Chris I was gone for a day and a half."
Joanna laughed out loud from her room. She was home.
9)Very Special – Debra Laws
This was it, the big day. She finally found a man who would treat her with respect, a man who would be her equal in every aspect. She couldn't believe they'd been able to find one another, and in Sick Bay no less.
He was a mess of nerves at the front of the church, Jim, Spock, Hikaru and Scotty tried to soothe his nerves as Chekov nervously took pictures for his friends.
Then the music began and his mind cleared.
She saw him at the end of the aisle and beamed at him.
This was it.
10) Good Love – Lucy Pearl
They lay in bed, breathing and heartbeats beginning to return to normal. They'd loved one another all night, finally coming to realize how much they meant to one another. She didn't want him to see, but at some point she'd let her tears fall unchecked. It felt good, in a way that she couldn't describe. Not just the physical, not that it wasn't amazing, but the way he held her, looked at her like he could see her whole life in her eyes. The sweet whispers in her ear as they settled snuggled together to finally find some peaceful sleep. No more wondering, this was the good love she'd heard so much about from her friends and family. This man here, he embodied it. He was good if not great love.
