    Summary

    When Dennis agreed to cover shifts for Dr. Mohan on the night shift, he didn't think he would ever end up here. Kidnapped from the ambulance bay, his head pounding, and having to save the life of a man with limited medical supplies. That was supposed to be it. Somehow, he finds himself snatched up off a sidewalk, in the stables, in front of his home. There were no sacred spaces when you proved your worth.

    In the middle of it all, Dennis is confused by the way Dr. Robby and Dr. Abbot are circling him. The way they'd reach out and brush their fingers against his skin. The way they made sure he ate, got rest, and stayed safe. It made him ache with something he hadn't felt in a long time.

    Summary

    Dennis bit the quick of his thumbnail, nibbling until he drags the skin to a hangnail. Until his tongue blooms with the taste of salty copper. He stops briefly, pulls away to inspect his thumb before ripping off the piece of skin once and for all. A piercing cry snaps his attention and his heart lurches forward, body moving on autopilot. Still, he's drowning.
    _ _ _

    Dennis is a single dad and no one in the Pitt knows. Actually, no one knows he (and his daughter) are unhoused either. That all changes when his baby gets sick and only gets worse, forcing him to show up in the ED distraught.

    Summary

    Dennis matched at the Pitt because the program is excellent.

    That's the reason. He's not examining any other reasons.

    Intern year. He's back on the floor. Robby remembers everything Abbot told him. Abbot still has the clicker. Dennis still doesn't know why the sound of it does what it does to him.

    He stays anyway.

    Summary

    I want to break up." he chokes out, his voice cracking as a sob erupts his throat. He tries to contain himself, not make him look more like the pathetic child he´s sure they already think he is. But he can´t stop the shakiness of his voice, the sadness in his eyes.

    ".... No."

    It´s said with deliberation. Like it´s something Jack knows with absolute conviction to be true. There´s no doubt in his mind that Dennis won´t leave.

    "What?" Dennis balks. He stares into Jack´s eyes, hoping to see that glint of humour the man gets when he´s joking.

    It´s not there.

    He´s completely serious.
