Title: With A Soft On
Disclaimers: Ryan Murphy is the genius.
Genre: angst
Rating: Adult, just to be on the safe side, as it contains mentions of violent situations/rape.
Summary/Set:This is around the second part of season 2, just so we don't know much about Christian's biological heritage and childhood yet. AU from there, dealing with Christian's early years BEFORE his foster father.
Pairing: Christian/other.

"Tell me what you don't like about yourself, Mrs. Bell," Christian started leaning back and taking a first good look at his patient. He liked to take a guess about what they were going to say they didn't like about their bodies, just because it was so funny how often he was wrong. But once he looked at her he couldn't contemplate much on what made the woman off perfect. There was something about her...
"People tend to think I'm older than what I am and lately that started to bother me. So I told myself, "Isabel, you gotta get rid of those wrinkles. So it's just that, if you don't mind."
"Is...Isabel?" Christian gulped paling a little, making her look at him curiously and a little confused. He looked at the files, then back at her. No, it couldn't have been. Nothing was written in the files about her maiden name, but it was worth a shot. He felt a knot gather in his stomach, imitating the way he was feeling when he last saw her if she was who he thought she was. "Isi Kesare?"
Isabel narrowed her eyes, looked on for a minute, then shook her head, "I am, but...I don't remember having the pleasure...?"
Christian was feeling really weak now, but he managed to utter the name that hasn't left his lips since he was 7 years old. His own. "Christiano Ovidio Paz."
"Oh my God," Isabel put her hand on her chest hiperventillating, "my God! Chrissy? Little Chrissy from across the lawn?" Tears welled up in her eyes and it only took her a few seconds to stand up and corner the table meeting him half way.
The instant hug lasted considerably more.
