Why This Must Be Read: This counts as drama as John gets kidnapped (!) after his father's financial shenanigans piss Rodney off. This fic's probably fairly well known but it's another one that hasn't been reccd here for 15 years, and the link needed an update. It's a fun and romantic read in the Harlequin tradition.
After way too long — there weren’t any clocks in the room, which, in John’s opinion, was better than Chinese water torture for driving a prisoner insane — the door opened.
“Huh,” said the guy standing there. “You know, I thought you’d be bigger?”
John sat up on the bed and took a second to process.
“I suppose I’m stereotyping, but to me, an Air Force major just suggests more... mass,” the guy continued, stepping in and shutting the door behind him. “Maybe you should be working out more. How are you feeling?”
John blinked his way back to reality. Unfortunately, reality was about the same as where he’d been a second ago. “Like crap,” he said, because it was true. “Who the hell are you?”
“Oh, didn’t I mention? Dr. Rodney McKay. Nice to meet you.”
Oh. This suddenly — made even less sense. “You kidnapped me.”
“Yeah, sorry about that. No other options, really.” McKay picked up a little figurine from a shelf, frowned at it for a second, and put it back. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to kill you or anything.”
