zjofieroseWarnings: angst, off-stage sexual assault [Highlight for more detailed warning: (skip) While filming in Pittsburgh, Chris is raped (and possibly drugged), and he turns to Zach for help. The assault is not described in detail.]
Summary: “Something happened. In Pittsburgh. Something bad.”
Disclaimer: This is entirely a work of fiction. The names are real, but nothing else.
A/N: This is set shortly after Chris returns from filming Unstoppable, which should tell you how long I’ve been working on it. Originally for
this prompt at the kink meme. Title and lyrics from “Transatlanticism” by Death Cab for Cutie.
Additional Thanks: To
babykid528 and
ewinfic for your help kicking this one into shape, and once again to
zjofierose for her mad beta-ing skills. This has been a long time in the making, and I couldn’t have gotten it together without all of you.

OneThe Atlantic was born today, and I'll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out
TwoI was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere when the water filled every hole
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean making islands where no islands should go
The people were overjoyed; they took to their boats
ThreeI thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your door...
FourI need you so much closer
So come on, come on...
