Summary
“Well.” Michael puts his glass down on his coaster. Taps the hobnailed glass with his fingertips, once, twice. Then, as casually as he’s said anything else that evening, “I had a really shitty day at work and I was hoping to work that frustration out by fucking some stranger.”
“I’m a stranger.” Dennis hears himself say.
OR:
Dennis goes to a gay bar for the first time. He meets a handsome stranger called Michael. Smut ensues. Definitely no consequences will follow.Series

Summary
Dennis became a doctor to help people, it was who he was. He expected exhaustion, difficult patients, and teasing from peers, but not the quiet pull toward his grieving senior, Dr. Robby. When a panic attack breaks Robby’s carefully kept distance, Dennis steps in without hesitation. But in the days that follow, what began as compassion starts to feel like something deepee, something Dennis never expected to find in the halls of The Pitt.

Summary
Dr. Robby is too old for this. Too old to be losing sleep over a resident.
It starts slowly. Favours and conversation. Things that last longer than they should.
He tells himself it isn’t anything. Just a temporary lapse in judgment. But the way Dennis looks at him makes everything harder.
And Robby, who has spent his entire life being careful, realizes he may have already passed the line of no return.
Slowburn, the chapters get longer as we go, cuz I get greedy
( posting weekly, proofreading when I can, sorry I just wanna go with my stupid stream of thoughts.)
