Summary
AU version of Backward Benton (Season 7, episode 4) where Carter takes a hit following the gang-related shooting in Trauma Room 2, because that’s the kind of luck he has, and the injury presents challenges to his recovery from opioid addiction. His hospital family tries to help him through it but life continues to pile on in the process. Most of what happens in season 7 still happens except Mark never gets a brain tumor because that’s the way I want it so that’s how it shall be. This is the first chapter of eight (or more).
Content Warning: Current/future chapters will touch on addiction, depression, sexual abuse/assault, eating disorders, and suicide. I will add new warning tags as the subjects arise in upcoming chapters.
A special thanks to The Pitt for turning me on to E.R. Watching both is the extent of my medical knowledge. Please, forgive me.

Summary
It was Carter’s eyes that truly gave him away. Vacant, staring. Wanting. Empty. Carol found herself unable to take a full breath. Those were the eyes that had stared back at her in the bathroom mirror before she’d taken the pills.
——
When getting a breath of fresh air one night, Carol finds Carter already on the roof, and finds the chance to save herself.
