    Summary

    Dennis has had a crush on his attending, Dr. Robby, since his medical school rotation. Sure, he's heard the rumors that Dr. Robby doesn't do long-term, that all his relationships are on a 7-week timer. But if he's good enough, perfect enough, maybe he can beat the odds?

    When it doesn't work out with Dr. Robby, Dennis switches to the night shift to work with Dr. Abbot, a decision that has far-reaching consequences. But at least he'd never repeat the mistake of hooking up with his boss, right?

    OR

    Two goobers who are convinced that there's no one out there who will truly understand them somehow find each other.

    Summary

    'There's a notification clogging up his screen.

    Dennis Whitaker (R1): Hey, just wanted to check in with you after yesterday. It was intense. And also, that thing you were asking about? I feel like Trin kinda got in your head about it. Amy's really just a friend. She needs help on the farm, with a baby, and I'm pretty good at farmwork. That's all.

    It's entirely too much justification for your boss.'

     

    Robby finally makes it to his sabbatical.

    Whitaker finds himself a little adrift without his boss around.

    Jack is just trying to make sure the both of them are happy.

    Summary

    ”I shouldn’t’ve—” Robby cuts himself off, swallowing thickly. “That shouldn’t’ve happened.”

    Dennis’s chest caves in. He stares down at the crumpled tissues in his hands and blinks fast, refusing to cry here. Not like this, not in front of Robby. Not after what they just did.

    “This can’t happen again, Whitaker.”

    Dennis and Robby hook up in the back of Robby’s car. Robby tells Dennis it was a one-time thing, but they’re unable to stop it from happening again. And again and again.

    Summary

    Dennis digs through his bag for the crumpled piece of paper he knows to be in there somewhere. His chest feels tight, and his lip bleeds from biting the tears away. He smooths the single sheet of computer paper out as best he can and gets a pen from off his nightstand to add some comments in the margins. It's been weeks since he wrote the note, and there are things that need to be addressed.

    I'm sorry Dr. Robby, he writes at the very top, breath caught in his throat. He's not afraid, but a last-ditch effort at self-preservation from his body makes each inhale heavy. I'm sorry for making you take me in. You're a good man and I took advantage of that.
