"I just feel like everything's ending," Christine murmured. "I'm not ready for it." "I don't think most people are," Erik said. "Will you stay with me when it does?" she asked, her voice very small. 

This is a fun question! I should preface my answer, though, with the fact that I have only been reading phics for about a year and a half, so there's still a lot of E/C fics out there that I haven't read - yet.

First, I'm going to link a few phics - just keep in mind that this is by no means an exhaustive list of stories I've enjoyed, just a small sample. Also, just to simplify things, I'm only going to directly link stories rated T or lower, although I personally enjoy E/C stories of all ratings.

And now, I'm going to include links to my AO3 and FFN pages, because I have a LOT of bookmarks/favorites marked, the vast majority of which are E/C fics. Some I've read, and some I marked so I could find them to read later, but I guarantee that there's a lot of good E/C content there. In fact, that's how I found many of the fics that I've read, by checking the bookmarks/favorites of authors whose stories I like, and also those of the people who comment on those stories.

"Here, you try."

"No."

"No?" Christine wrinkled her eyebrows. "You agreed-"

"I didn't agree to shit, sweetheart," he said, voice dripping with vitriol, eyes flashing with anger before he resumed his general apathetic stare. "Leave me alone."

"No! You don't understand."

Emboldened by the help mere yards away, she turned the smoking shotgun back on him.

"I think it is you who does not understand,” she warned, pointing the gun at his heart. "I'll thank you to let go of my horse now."
