    Summary

    Dennis is not a big drinker. Apparently, the other Pitt staff are. 

    (alternatively: dennis drunkenly tells robby how much he'd like to climb him like a tree. robby deals with this responsibly.)

    Summary

    God was in everything in the town of Broken Bow, Nebraska.

    Dennis Whitaker never made it to medical school, he's twenty-six working at his mother's bakery. Day to day is the same, he gets in at five in the morning, he leaves at six in the evening. In a town where everyone knows everyone when Michael "Robby" Robinavitch arrives, he sticks out like a sore thumb. After Robby becomes a regular at the bakery, Dennis starts to remember why he wanted to leave town all those years ago.

    Summary

    The first couple of dollars that the machine ate up without remorse were an annoyance, something that made Dennis sigh and unzip his wallet without thinking about it to try again. By the time that the vending machine had eaten seven whole dollars, in coins, and Dennis didn’t have anything to show for it, he was close to thumping his forehead against the cool glass and hoping he could derive some sort of enjoyment or nourishment from simply just looking at the colourful packages as they remained firmly in their coils.

    He didn’t often carry coins. Those were his last few dollars and he was woefully aware that somebody had offhandedly mentioned that the staffroom vending machine destroyed notes, so he wasn’t going to be getting a soda, a bag of chips or anything else that might settle his belly from the incessant grumbling it was doing.

    ~

    5 times + 1 that Robby buys something for Dennis and makes him feel like he's about to keel over, right there and then.

    Summary

    When people said relationships can hurt, Dennis was pretty sure they didn’t mean this kind of hurt. He’d pictured emotional turmoil over arguments about who’s doing the dishes or what Netflix show to watch, not having to swallow his pride - and apparently, a bit of blood - because of what could generously be called a stupidly enthusiastic decision.

    -- -- -- --

    Or, Dennis was so excited to finally take the next step with Michael. Everything was going great, until he woke up in the middle of the night with the taste of blood in his mouth. What other choice was there but to go to emergency room...where they both work.
