Summary
Night shifts in the Pitt had a way of stripping someone down to their core. It tested your patience, your skill—when the witching hour hits and you're facing MVCs and GSWs while exhaustion weighs down on your bones, finding the drive to keep pushing through sometimes feels utterly impossible.
Throw in fourth-year residency, egotistical residents, and the ever-blurring line of personal and professional between a certain night shift attending, and surviving the shift stops being the most difficult part of your job.
or: jack abbot loses a bet and it starts something neither of you meant to begin.

Summary
Jack Abbot thought his life was figured out, processing the death of his wife and following the police for the adrenaline spikes. He thought that was enough...until a certain blonde had to be saved under his hands (and now he can't stop thinking about her). For her part, Mel King had zero desire to be getting involved with anybody, much less a fifty-ish attending with dopamine issues. At least she hadn't until she was the one on the table.

Summary
You joined The Pitt to save lives, not to fall in love.
Between exhausting shifts, the pressure of residency, and a relationship that is slowly falling apart, you barely have time to figure out what you want for yourself.
Then there’s Jack Abbott.
He’s older, experienced, and carrying a painful past. You’ve always admired him from a distance, never imagining that the professional relationship between you could become something more.
But as the long nights turn into stolen conversations, lingering looks, and feelings neither of you expected, you begin to wonder if some connections are worth risking everything for. Falling in love may be the easiest part.

Summary
You meet Dr Jack Abbot while straddling a patient on your first shift.
Everything about him is off limits but for some reason you feel safe around him. Will it be enough for you to stop trying to out run your past? Or will your past and Jacks own trauma prevent you from finally calling a place home.

Summary
Jack Abbot has been alone for a long time. It’s been almost a decade since losing his wife, and almost two since he’d been stationed as an army doctor overseas. He’s kept to himself. Held his own. But recently, he’s been going to therapy more. He adopted a dog that has him working days for the first time since his wife died, and he’s trying something new.
When Iris Cross crashes into his life via PTMC's emergency department, he’s not ready for her. Not for her jokes, her smile, and especially not the way she looks at him. Or the way she makes him want to visit her in recovery after her emergency surgery. Not when he’s navigating a new routine, therapy sessions, and the trauma he’s never quite worked through.
Iris has always been ready for someone like Jack. Someone who saw through her jokes and the way her smile lit up a room — who understood her. And yes, he’s her doctor, but what could be wrong with sending him an Instagram DM for some aftercare instructions?
Or, at least, that's what she's telling herself.
