Stephen Strange/ Doctor Strange Catch Up

How you meet

I was sitting in the hospital waiting room as my older brother, Evan, was being operated on. He was at work on a catwalk when he fell off, he hit his head and broke his back. I was tapping my foot impatiently as I waited to hear the status of my brother. I knew chances were possibly slim, but I couldn't give up on him because he never gave up on me. He always helped me through everything, especially our parents deaths.

I brought Evan to the hospital my good friend Christine works in. She said that they had a surgeon that was really good with injuries like Evan's.

After a few hours, I found my eyelids getting heavier and I curled up in one of the waiting room chairs, used my arm as a pillow and fell asleep.

Soon I felt someone tap my shoulder and I flinched slightly and opened my eyes quickly to see Christine and another doctor standing by me. I quickly stood up and looked at them, "Evan. How is he?" I asked frantically.

"He will be okay. We relieved the pressure on his brain and we were able to repair the break. He is a lucky man," Christine said with a smile, "This is Doctor Stephen Strange, the surgeon who performed the procedure." She said motioning to a tall man with blue eyes and brunette hair. He was quite attractive.

"Thank you guys so much," I said with a smile as I hugged Christine first, then Doctor Strange.

Christine hugged me back tightly and rubbed my back a bit, "Don't worry (Y/N), I will be here to check on Evan through his whole recovery."

"Just doing my job," Stephen said with a small smile, hugging back with one arm.

After thanking them again, Christine had to leave because she got called to the ER so Doctor Strange offered to escort me to my brother's recovery room which I accepted because I wanted to see my brother, but I also wanted to get to know Stephen more.

He started to engage in small talk as we walked down the halls to my brother's room recovery room.

"So you're his younger sister? Do your parents live near by?" Stephen asked.

"I am his younger sister. He is eight years older than me, I am 25," I said and I shook my head at the second question, "No. our parents passed away when I was only six. We got sent to foster care but Evan looked out for me and practically raised me. He's all I have left so I'm extremely thankful you were able to save him."

"I'm sorry about your loss, no kids should have to go through that." Stephen said, looking at me, "I was just doing my job. Christine said she needed to help a friend and I was more than willing to help."

Once we reached my brother's room, I thanked Doctor Strange again and I hurried to my brother's bedside and carefully held his hand. I sent one last small smile to Stephen and waved a bit before turning my attention back to my brother, not noticing him watching us for a couple minutes before walking away.

He asks you out

Evan was in the hospital for almost two months after surgery for recovery. I was with him everyday helping him and bringing things for him to do. I would bring him books and newspapers so he could keep updated.

Stephen would always come in and check up on Evan and he would also talk to me. I had gotten to know him a lot better and I had come to like him quite a bit.

After he was released from the hospital, Evan had to go back to the hospital three times a week for physical therapy exercises and I went with him to every appointment he had.

"You know you don't have to come to every appointment," Evan said as he used his crutches.

"Of course I do. You were always there for me, I want to be there for you," I smiled as I walked next to him and opened the doors for him.

As I sat in a chair and watched my brother doing his physical therapy exercises and improving, I heard someone walk up next to me and I looked up to see Stephen.

"Hey Doctor Strange," I smiled.

"Please, call me Stephen," He smiled back at me.

"Alright Stephen. How have you been?" I asked him, glancing back at my brother.

"I've been good. Just working," Stephen said.

"That's good," I nodded.

"(Y/N), I was wondering if you would like to go on a date with me?" He asked with a hopeful smile.

"I would love to go on a date with you Stephen," I smiled up at him.

Stephen smiled at my answer, "Wonderful, tomorrow night at 7? I'll take you out to dinner?"

"Sounds perfect. I'll find someone who will be okay with keeping an eye on Evan in case he needs anything," I smiled back at him and then looked back towards Evan to notice him making more progress.

"Great. I'll see you then," Stephen smiled and he waved before leaving.

I cheered for Evan and smiled at Stephen and waved at him before he left.

First Date

I was in my apartment getting ready for my date with Stephen. To say I was nervous was an understatement. This will be my first date in months and I'm afraid I will mess it up.

After I did my hair and makeup, I looked at the time and saw it was 6:45. I walked to my closet and searched through my wardrobe until I came across the perfect dress. It was a black off the shoulder dress and it was beautiful.

I put some black peep toe heels on and out a necklace and a bracelet on as well. I heard a knock on my front door and I checked my makeup and hair one more time before walking to my living room.

I took a deep breath and opened my door with a smile to see Stephen standing there in a tuxedo.

"You look beautiful (Y/N)," Stephen smiled as he looked at me.

"Thank you Stephen," I smiled and blushed, "You look very handsome."

"Thank you," Stephen smiled, "Shall we get going?" He asked and he stuck out his arm when I nodded.

I took his arm and locked my door to my apartment before walking with him to his car. He opened the door for me and I thanked him before getting in.

When we reached the restaurant, we walked inside and we talked about a lot, getting to know more about each other. The dinner went by smoothly and he took me back home.
I let him inside my apartment and we talked for another hour before deciding to end the date because it was getting late.

"I had a great time tonight Stephen," I smiled as he stood in the doorway.

"I had a great time as well (Y/N)," Stephen smiled.

We gave each other another smile before saying goodbyes and I closed the door to my apartment and locked it once he left.

Contact Names

My Darling ❤️- You were very special to him. He was determined not to mess things up with you and he changed his attitude when you guys started dating.

Mister Doctor 💕-  You couldn't help but put this as his contact name upon hearing the story of Kaecilius thinking his name was Mister Doctor. He was not fond of the contact name at first but he eventually came to love it because you giggled at it and he loved your laugh.

First Fight

I opened the door to Stephen's place and walked inside to see him sitting at his table with a pad of paper practicing writing his own name. He looked defeated and I frowned and walked over, "What's wrong babe?"

Stephen slowly looked up at me and scoffed, "Like you don't know."

"Stephen, I'm just trying to help. I can't help if you don't talk to me," I said softly, trying to calm him down.

Stephen stood up and threw his laptop, phone, and coffee off the table causing it to crash to the ground and me to flinch.

"You want to know what's wrong? I'll tell you what's wrong. My hands are messed up! I lost my job, I can no longer do my job because my hands are ruined! You don't know what that's like! My life's work!" He raised his voice.

"I'm sorry that happened to you. I am. It sucks. But there are other things you can do, people who are there for you," I said.

"There's nothing else I can do! You need your hands for everything! And as for people? Do you mean yourself?" He asked, anger on his face.

"What do you mean? I've been there for you every step of the way! I was at your bedside helping feed you, and anything else you need!" I yelled back, tears forming in my eyes.

"And yet you can't help me find a way to heal my hands! Christine would be able to help me! That's the only thing I want! I want my hands back! You can't even help me get the one thing I want back because you're not smart enough to! I don't need pity (Y/N), and that's why you're here!" He yelled and he took a few steps towards me.

Tears started to roll down my cheeks and I lifted my hand and slapped his cheek before turning away and walking to the door.

"Well I'm sorry I'm not smart enough for you. Maybe if you wanted someone who was smart you should go back to Christine! Goodbye," I said before shutting the door hard and running out to my car and driving back home.

Making Up

It's been about a year since Stephen and I got into that fight. I thought he really cared about me, but I guess I was wrong since he hasn't come back for me.

I was walking down the street to the hospital. I told Christine I would meet up with her so we could get a coffee after her shift. It was late out because she had a late shift and I had my hand in my purse, on my pocket knife in case someone tried anything.

I heard footsteps behind me and I started to freak out a bit so I walked faster only to hear the footsteps get faster.

Suddenly I was pulled down an alley by someone and pushed against the wall. I started to cry as the male started to unzip my jeans.

"Let her go!" I heard a familiar voice yell.

"Yeah, and what are you going to do about it?" The man said with a smirk as he held me against the wall.

"Oh believe me you don't want to know," The voice said before fighting off the man. I fell to the floor and started crying harder.

The man who saved me walked over and knelt down, "(Y/N) are you okay?" He asked causing me to look up. I knew that voice.

"Stephen?" I asked in shock.

"It's me," Stephen nodded, "Are you okay?"

I nodded and wiped my tears before standing up slowly and fixing my pants, "What are you doing here?"

"I should've come back sooner. What I said was wrong. Very wrong and I shouldn't have said it. You are brilliant. Sometimes I don't understand how you put up with an egotistical jerk like me," Stephen said as he looked into my (Y/E/C) eyes.

"Stephen, it's been almost a year. Where have you been?" I asked, biting my lip.

"Fixing myself. Not my hands, my attitude and my spirit," Stephen said before giving me a brief explanation, "Please give me another chance. Life has been so difficult without you. I can't lose you (Y/N). I love you."

I listened to him as he spoke and I thought about what he said. I had a little voice in my head telling me not to give him another chance but my heart had other ideas.

"I love you too Stephen," I said with a smile before hugging him tightly.

He smiled widely and hugged me back, kissing the top of me head, "You won't regret it."

Nicknames

He usually calls you Babe or Love. He wanted something simple yet meaningful so that's what he chose. He preferred love because he loved you with all his heart and he wanted you to know it.

You called him Honey or Babe. You stuck with the more traditional names as well. You believed that you didn't have to do anything flashy or pick a flashy name to show your love for Stephen. You picked something sweet, simple, and meaningful.

First Kiss

I was walking down the halls of the hospital with two coffees in hand. I wanted to surprise Stephen and I decided to bring his favorite coffee as well since he was going to be working late.

Christine pointed me to where Stephen was and I walked up behind him quietly, "I brought you something honey."

Stephen turned around and smiled at me "Love! You brought me a coffee? You didn't have to. Thank you," He said with a smile as he took the coffee.

"Of course I did. You said you were working late so I wanted to bring you coffee," I smiled.

He smiled at my answer and he leaned down and kissed me softly.

I was slightly shocked at first but I cupped his cheek with one hand and kissed him back, smiling when he pulled back.

"Thank you love," he smiled and he sipped it. He pecked my lips again quickly before leaving after they called him to the operating room.

When you're sick

Since he is a doctor, he stays with you when you're sick and he makes sure you take your medicine and he makes sure you get the rest you need. He goes into full doctor mode and you love it because no boyfriend has treated you this well while you were sick. It reminded you why you loved him so much.

How you guys sleep

Before the accident, you would go to sleep before he got home since he worked late nights. When he got home, he got in bed next to you and he draped an arm on your hip and held you close as you were the little spoon.
After the accident and after you got back together, you were afraid of losing each other again so you fell asleep holding each other.

What your friends think of him

At first your friends were unsure because they heard about his attitude but once they saw how he treated you and how he completely changed his attitude for you, they loved him. They always wanted you to have a guy to treat you right and they were happy that you finally found that with Stephen.
