    Summary

    Now, to Samira, those few minutes with her partner before he’s about to begin his night shift were about as normal as they can get.

    For Jack, his eyes zeroed in on the hand she had resting on her back to relieve pain. They glanced over the dark circles under her eyes that lingered even after a full twelve hours of sleep; he knew she hadn't gotten enough. And much more importantly, his gaze refused to move away from the scrub fabric that covers her stomach once focused there.

    Jack Abbot thinks Samira Mohan is pregnant with their baby, and he’s not entirely sure how to tell her.

    Summary

    When he boards the elevator he’s upset. By the time he leaves the elevator he’s angry, each reverberation of his feet hitting asphalt felt in the remaining bones and surgical grade titanium in his right leg, all the way up to his hip. It takes him less than sixty seconds to walk from the parking deck to the ambulance bay. Ten feet from the entrance, he sees Robby walk through the first set of doors, past Ahmad, and then through the second set of doors. His pulse roars in his ears, his heart pounding in his chest. For the first time in years, Jack Abbot feels something approximating rage, an emotion he has long assumed to be medicated out of him.

    His hands furl into fists.

    ++

    Robby commits the critical error of making Samira cry. Jack reacts.

    Summary

    “She also said you handled it pretty well. All things considered.”

    The moment his words registered, Mel lifted her head. “Really?”

    “Oh, yeah,” Frank said, nodding. His bangs were falling into his eyes again. “That was a textbook response.”

    The tiniest smile had just started to form when he added, “But I really need you to never do that again.”

    Summary

    “What are you going to do?” Samira asks, breathless.

    Dr. Abbot stares at her. “I’m not gonna do anything, Samira.”

    A choice is made. It was always going to have to be hers, in the end.

    ***
    or, Jack Abbot likes to praise the smartest doctor. Samira Mohan likes to be praised. A win is a win is a win.

    Summary

    “Work relaxes me, Mohan,” Abbot says, not quite chiding, his tone a shade warmer. He leans his hip against her workstation, ducking his head until she looks at him. “If I’m not at work, I’m trying to find a reason to come back to work. Let me read your article. I’ll be nice to you about it, not just because someone should, but because I can tell you without even reading it that it’s good.”

    “You cannot possibly know that,” Samira blurts out.

    He looks at her with an expression that’s stuck halfway between inquisitive and amused; the left side of his mouth threatens a smile. “Sure I can. I know you.”

    ++

    Abbot and Mohan flirt in the Google Doc comments of her unpublished article. Abbot takes it upon himself to instruct Mohan on how to accept praise.
