Thanks to trekkiel for this dyfty prompt! Its a little longer than oringally set out to will be 4 chapter uploaded over the next 4 days! I've never written Dyfty before so hope they're not ooc!
So I hope you enjoy this! I've watched the episode with Dylan's dad in again and made sure to try and keep him as in character as possible, in the episode I'm not actually sure if Lofty met his dad so I'm taking it that he doesn't...
This is set around 3 years since Dylan last saw his dad. Dyfty have been together for around a year and live on Dylan's boat with Dervla
Trigger warnings: child abuse, attempted murder, threat, please tell me if I've missed any...
Dylan woke up to find his overly cuddly boyfriend clung to him. Still he smiled to himself, this was love. This man, how soft he had become since Ben had grabbed him by the collar in resus and kissed him just after Dylan had talked a patient out of killing them both with a scalpel. That was almost a year ago. How time had gone.
"Ben, come on. We're going to b late for work. I'm never late." Dylan said, realising the time, reluctantly prising Ben's arms off from around him.
"A few more minutes. I'm always late." A sleepy Lofty replied.
"I'm going to shower." Dylan said, forgetting that this would only make them later as he could never refuse Bens company in the shower.
For the first time ever Dylan was late. Not just a few minutes late, but a whole half an hour late. Luckily for him it was Zoe in charge today and she hadn't noticed under her piles of paperwork that buried her in her office.
"Dylan, there's a patient waiting for you in cubicle 4, a Mr Carroll." Lofty told him as he came over to the main desk.
"Ah, and his complaints?" Dylan asked his boyfriend, their relationship was common knowledge at work but they kept things strictly professional here after their first kiss was highly public and Dylan wasn't one to flaunt his feelings about.
"He's complaining of pain is his right wrist, Robyn said it didn't look swollen but he's demanding to be seen by a doctor immediately." Lofty explained as they made their way over to cubicle 4.
"Hello, Mr Carroll, I'm -" Dylan started as he pulled back the curtain, frozen mid sentence the second he realised who "Mr Carroll" was.
So... any thoughts? next chapter tomorrow! who's excited for casualty tonight?
