Summary: It was easy to pretend that it wasn’t Neal Caffrey undergoing this ordeal, just somebody who looked and acted just like him.
Written: post season 1
Author's Note: Written for collarkink for the awesome prompt: Peter and Neal are both taken by a bad guy (new or old) who wants Neal to work for him. Baddie physically tortures Peter so Neal will agree to forge things and help plan cons, even though these cons actually involve violence not just stealing and people are getting hurt. Basically Peter wants Neal to stop helping since he would rather suffer than have them participate in people being hurt - he understands Neal's reasons, but he believes that as an agent he puts his own safety behind the safety of ordinary citizens. So he is sympathetic to Neal but also truly angry that Neal is doing this. Neal sees Peter's pov but when it comes down to it, friends (Peter) come before strangers, so Neal refuses to let Peter get beat on or tortured, even if he feels awful about what he's doing. Bonus if Neal also has to sexually service baddie (otherwise they'll deny Peter food or medical treatment) but then Peter doesn't find out until after the fact. Original posting can be found here. Unedited because I can't look at this thing any more. >_>

( The last time that Neal Caffrey spoke to Peter Burke <i>before</i> the incident was on a Thursday evening. )
