Summary
Whitaker's beginning to bubble over, as the family he left in Broken Bow demand his return constantly. They think they'll be able to get him back if they keep dragging him home and wearing him down, and the problem is, it's working.
After almost falling off the edge, Robby is trying to find his way back to happiness. It's been eight months, why hasn't he fucking found it yet?
As the two desperately grasp for direction, starting to go for runs together to clear the head might lead them to more clarity than just a runner's high.

Summary
“I haven’t really been to a wedding where I’ve, uh… let loose. But, hey,” Dennis shrugged, “maybe I’m doing it wrong.”
“If I hadn’t already agreed to go to this conference, I’d offer to go with you,” Robby said casually. “Show you how it’s done. I’ve got a good track record as a plus-one, too.” Dennis had to say something. To interrupt. To shut this down. But what was he supposed to say? No, you can’t be my plus one, because I lied about my cousin, and there is no wedding, and it seems a little weird to bring a date to a fucking funeral– “Apparently parents love it when you bring home a doctor.”
And just like that, the bubble popped.
“I’m not gay,” Dennis snapped.
He had never hated the sound of his own voice as much as he did right then.
---
Or, Dennis is anxiously headed home for a "wedding" in Broken Bow, Nebraska, the details of which are increasingly fuzzy. Robby's got a medical conference in Omaha that same weekend. So they carpool. Seventeen hours both ways in an enclosed space with no way out except a tuck and roll. This'll go great.- Language:

Summary
Dennis Whitaker is tired.
He's also mysteriously sizing up in scrubs, wearing long sleeves in June, wincing when he thinks no one is looking, and sporting bruises that make Michael Robby’s years in trauma medicine scream that something is very, very wrong.
Dennis insists he’s fine. Which, unfortunately, is exactly what people say when they aren’t.
As Robby quietly spirals through every worst-case scenario imaginable, Trinity Santos is busy roasting everyone in sight, Abbott wonders if emotional stupidity qualifies for hazard pay, and Dennis just really wishes people would stop asking questions.
After all, he’s fine.
Really.
(He just happens to spend his weekends getting checked into walls for fun.)
Or: Michael Robby sees bruises and immediately makes it everyone’s problem. Dennis Whitaker discovers that hiding hockey injuries from an attending with twenty-five years of trauma experience is harder than surviving beer league playoffs.
Happy reading!

Summary
"There has to be something you want to come back for. Something you can’t die without doing.”
Robby’s gaze roamed across Dennis's face, tracing the planes and sharp angles of his features like he was trying to commit them to memory. He already had a long time ago. The horrible, aching knot in his chest dedicated to Dennis was a piece of Robby that he tried, time and time again, to rip out. Always to no avail.
If he had anything to come back for, it’d be this one thing.
"Marry me," Robby said.
Robby, about to head out for his sabbatical and never return, thinks to hell with it—nothing matters except for the very real, very inappropriate feelings he's been harboring for his first-year resident. So he proposes. And before he can take it back, Whitaker says yes.

Summary
A vivid flash of pink in his periphery derails his entire sentence. He turns to his left, following the pop of color.
A young man dressed in soft pink scrubs emerges from the corner, just barely dodging a nurse pushing a loaded cart into the spot he came from.
“Lost pup?” Dana whispers conspiratorially at Robby.
“Looks like it. Wonder what he’s doing down here.”
