    Summary

    “Look, I’m not trying to overwork you, or treat you like an attending ‘cause you’re not. But I want at least one doctor working with me who I don’t have to fuckin’ worry about.”

    Samira’s only reply comes out as a disbelieving huff.

    “So what do you say? You gonna be my rock on the night shift?”

    -OR-

    After the Fourth of July, Samira moves to the night shift. At some point, she starts fucking Abbot. They don’t talk about it. It works, honestly. Well, until it doesn’t.

    Summary

    Jack didn’t go in much for praying anymore. No point, not when nobody upstairs seemed to give a shit either way. Praying was for altar boys and little kids and people who wanted their football team to win the Superbowl; for parents in his ER who refused medical care for their dying children in favor of speaking in tongues and yelling up the ladder to something that didn’t answer. Not for him. He believed in only a few things, and none of those were anything big enough to pray to.

    Well, almost none. There’d been one thing. A person, really. Bigger than a person, though. More like a grand, orchestral concept, a hope half-divine, fifty-two percent of the reason he kept showing up to work for four years straight.

    Summary

    “And listen,” he continues, and she can watch the part of his brain prone to nervous rambling switch on. “I know the popular opinion is against my general sanity but—I swear to god, I wanna marry you Samira Mohan. And you can say no, and I’m still gonna spend the rest of my life in love with you.”

    “Until your other leg falls off,” she repeats, a little distantly.

    Jack nods solemnly. “The chance is slim but never zero.”

    Samira Mohan does not cope gracefully with having to wait months for her board exam results. Jack Abbot decides to distract her.

    "It's not like I did anything —"

    "So help me god, Samira, if you say you were just doing your job one more time. You're a damn good doctor. And you got there by going after things that other people don't."

    Well. Damn. Consider her properly put in her place.

    Summary

    “Wait,” Trin said slowly. “Wait a fucking minute.”

    Mel looked between them, baffled. “Are you playing house with Zaddy Night Shift?” Trinity said, glee breaking across her face.

    “Who is Zaddy Night Shift?” Mel asked, at least two decibels louder than the entire previous conversation. Princess started walking over. Samira put her face in her hands. “I am Zaddy Night Shift,” Dr. Ellis said, breezing by. “And I don’t play house. I provide a loving home for the right woman.”

    “My heart belongs to another, king.” Trinity said absently. Mel looked at her in confusion. “Not you, Melancholy.”

    “I do not understand what’s happening.” Mel announced cheerfully.
