Summary
“Sometimes the grief-" She motions both hands in a wide cradle at her gut. "Feels like a stomach. And it's not hungry anymore, but it's not empty either. It's just been digesting for decades and nothing is moving, it's just simmering and building and it burns."
It takes a moment, but she steels herself enough to meet his eyes again.
She doesn't think she has any right to ask, but she's already cracked open- more than she's ever been with someone- so she does.
"Do you still feel that way?"

Summary
He presses her against the wall and just for a second she thinks he’s going to lift her, encourage her to wrap her legs around him, and then fuck her in the west stairwell in the middle of handover.
That is not what happens, but the kiss he gives her is full of heat and possibility. Here, the slant of his mouth on hers says, take this hunger and build on it, then give it back to me. And she does.
Or
What’s it going to take for her to just let herself be loved.

Summary
Samira has long known that being friends with Robby is a character flaw. It had just never seemed so damning until now. It itched at her inion whenever Jack stared at her from across the ED. She pushed it away when he emailed case studies, because he was the only person not related to her who emailed her at all. She ignored it because she liked the way his callused hands brushed against the soft skin of her inner thighs and how his warm tongue felt heavy in her mouth. She craved the goosebump tingle that seemed to pulse at every nerve ending, at every millimeter of skin, whenever Jack’s attention focused solely on her at the end of a long day.
