Stop the Sun by rebyl (General Audiences)

Why this must be read: As far as h/c fics go, the hurt isn't very extreme: Mike gets a migraine while working a case with Harvey. But [livejournal.com profile] rebyl makes Mike's migraine extremely vivid to the point where you feel like you're having the migraine with Mike.

(Reccer's note: Although the LJ fic is rated T, since the other mirrors have the fic rated as "General Audiences" for their respective archives, I decided to go with the lower rating for this rec title. The fic has a bit of swearing in it, but nothing else that would be needed to be warned for.)



Mike didn’t know how long Harvey was in the meeting with the judge, and before long, he didn’t care. The pounding in his head was picking up momentum now. Even with his eyes screwed shut, and his palm pressed to his forehead, he could feel the pain radiating out from above his left eye, all the way down his jaw and to his neck now. If this migraine followed the usual pattern, he’d be too dizzy to walk pretty soon, and he’d lose all ability to be coherent shortly after that.

A door opening and shutting behind him sounded like a shotgun in the quiet hallway, and he gripped his head tighter and ground his teeth together.

“Shit, kid, it’s only been twelve minutes.”

Mike had nothing to say to that. He was beyond intelligent conversation and witty comebacks. He felt Harvey grab his elbow and tug him up off the bench.
