Summary
“‘If you’re raised with an angry man in your house, there will always be an angry man in your house. You will find him even when he is not there.’”
The well-known quote Dennis murmured was somehow louder than any scream the two had heard in their entire lifetime.
They were both still, their breathing heavy, when Dennis straightened his back, hands bracing the edge of the counter as he glanced at Jack and Robby’s direction.
“I am the angry man in our house,” Dennis confessed, his smile sad, and the look in his eyes had the two on the cusp of crumbling to their knees.
OR Dennis Whitaker has a difficult time taking care of himself, including learning healthy coping mechanisms, leading him down a spiral. Robby and Jack—already interested in the medical student—decided it’s time they take things into their own hands.

Summary
Dennis Whitaker has always been good at holding it together, until he isn’t.
After a panic attack leaves him shaken in the middle of the Pitt, Dennis begins to question everything: his competence, his place, and whether the things he’s spent years burying will ever loosen their grip.
He doesn’t talk about home. He definitely doesn’t talk about the way his heart stutters when Dr. Robinavitch smiles at him, or when Jack Abbott calls him kid with that crooked grin.
They’re married. They’re happy. They’re kind to him. That has always been enough.
Until a patient forces Dennis to face the parts of himself he’s spent years refusing to name. Trauma doesn’t stay quiet, and neither does the anger that comes with it. As old wounds resurface, Dennis is pushed to confront how deeply his past still shapes him and whether healing is possible when you’ve spent so long just surviving.
The Pitt is about saving lives. Dennis is starting to wonder if anyone can save his.

TEMPORARY HIATUS WHILE I FIXATE ON OTHER FICS ! (I’m sorry it’s a WIP I promise!)
Dennis is assaulted by a patient.
3 days, a grade 3 concussion, 2 broken ribs, broken nose, and brain surgery later Dennis is allowed to go home with round the clock care, the only problem is at Santos’ apartment there’s nobody to watch him.
Obviously Robby and Jack step in. Their alternate schedules mean Robby can watch him at night and Jack can watch him during the day.
The question is if Dennis can handle the two older, MARRIED, men, and if he’ll get better after the severe beating he took.All this with a side of religious trauma and being afraid to disappoint god with his indiscretions, how will Dennis manage?
