Summary
Harvey is fourteen years old when he realizes two things about his life:
1. He is never going to be a pilot, no matter how much hard work or dedication he puts into the endeavor. He is to remain grounded, still afraid of heights and still unable to see the world.
2. If Harvey ever becomes a doctor (he'll need a new career plan after all), he will do everything in his power to ensure he is never the reason a child gives up on a dream.***
or,
Harvey's unfaltering belief in the universe, through the ages.Series

Summary
Twenty-one years later, you will break your promise to your grandfather. It will be a different tree, but the same farm. It will be a different injury and a different doctor and a different life, but it will be the same feeling.
For a moment, before your back hits the hard earth below, you will feel free.

Summary
Irrevocably, it is a whole year since you have returned to the farm in the heart of the Valley. Living proof that time passes, as it always does, slowly and then all at once. The air here is crisp, almost painful in your lungs. You breathe in, because you are alive, deep in the heart of the Valley.

Summary
"Distracted there, doc?" You saunter over.
"Yes." His pupils blown and his lips parted, your breath gets trapped in your throat. "You're very distracting."
It's your turn to be flustered at his words, at his honesty. This game of cat-and-mouse the two of you play is quickly turning.

Summary
This is not the way things have been before. Harvey, gathering you into his arms and pressing you down, pressing into you deep, is not how this usually goes. His grip in your hair, his grip on your thigh - all of it is overwhelming and good and you feel nothing but a cool wave of contentment as you find yourself nodding.
"Let me take care of you, darlin'."

Summary
Gears start turning. Harvey is clearly interested, but it's the why you haven't determined yet. A flutter starts in your stomach at the possibilities.
This is careful water to tread. Easily spooked, your doctor is. A little testing is necessary.
"Picturin' me with another woman, Harv?" Your voice is low and teasing, still folding the linens in front of you. "How naughty."

Summary
"So what was the change?"
Harvey's silence lasts far longer than you expect, so you tilt your head. And Harvey is looking - looking at you like he did after your birthday, when your eyes were locked on the stars and his were locked on you. Like, like -
Oh.
"You, in a way."
