Hi! So I've lurked here a while but I've decided to finally join because I have spent days looking for the fic and I still can't find it.
Note: This is a really long summary because I added everything I remember but you can skip to the bottom for the short version. :)
Basically, Arthur and Eames are in an established relationship (live together, own a house, etc.) and they take a lot of jobs together but a lot separate too. For this one job Eames goes to I think London (not a hundred percent sure) to work one job while Arthur stays behind to work a different one. I know Arthur was working with a woman he and Eames were very good friends with, and I remember she told Arthur she was pregnant shortly after Eames went away. (Kind of unrelated, just a detail I remember.)
So this one morning Arthur gets a random call from an unknown number and its just silence on the other end of the line. Arthur thinks its Eames but he can't be sure because one of them hung up the phone before Eames said anything. Anyway, Arthue goes into work. He and this female friend of his are in the middle of testing chemicals or something for their job when, on the news, they see that there's been an attack in London, at the location where Eames and his team were supposed to be working. It looks like they were burned to death while using the PASIV (again, I think, but I'm not a hundred percent sure). Arthur immediately freaks out and tries to contact Eames but he can't. The lady he is working with knows what this means (Eames and Arthur are practically, if not literally, married) and so they all go looking for Eames, seeing if he's showed up anywhere.
Eventually, the two of them decide to go back to Arthur's house to see if Eames has left a message or something and they find Eames inside. Arthur of course freaks out and won't let go of Eames or whatever and I think Arthur asks the woman if she had to sit down, because of the impact of the stress on her pregnancy or whatever. And this was when Eames first found out she was pregnant.
Eames explains that he left the other team five days early because something felt off about the deal but he took the long way back so he only just got here now. And I remember that Arthur then took Eames to the hotel room he was staying at while working the job (because they didn't like to work out of their house) and then my memory gets a little fuzzy but I do remember Arthur had to comfort Eames because, understandably, Eames was rather shaken up, all of his colleagues having died.
IN SHORT: Eames and Arthur go on different jobs, everyone from Eames' job gets killed, Arthur finds him and comforts him.
That seems like a lot of information so bless your soul if you read that through. I feel like with this much detail I should be able to find the story but I can't seem to locate it in my bookmarks and I read half this journal through trying to find it.
Thanks for any help you guys can offer, or for just reading this through - again, sorry its so long, I figured the more details, the better!
And sorry if I messed anything up posting!
