    Sicktember Prompt 4: Pneumonia

    The final straw had been when Jack bolted upright in bed at 4am, grasping at his chest with one hand and Robby’s thigh with the other.

    “Can’t breathe,” he panted, and Robby had seen his eyes wide, panicked, even in the dim light of the bedroom. “Fuck- ow.”

    “That’s it,” Robby hid his alarm behind his unyielding, reserved for the most difficult of patients, ‘I’m-the-attending-and-you-will-listen-to-me' voice. “We’re going in.”

    “Not the Pitt,” Jack managed to moan out in-between wheezes, “not the Pitt.”

    “Baby, Presbytarian is another 20 minutes away, and Shadyside is even further. God, you could be having a PE-”

    “No,” Jack pleaded, “not the Pitt.”

    Summary

    How mad is he allowed to be, really, when he accepted these terms? He’s half responsible for this fucked-up in-between they live in, where they work together as responsible adults and professional colleagues, go back to one of their apartments, drink two beers each, and stick their tongues down each other’s throats. And he’s fine with it, it’s fine, so fine, so good bro, except when it’s not and he wishes Robby would stay.

    Summary

    People often ask Jack why he joined the army. It’s natural curiosity, mostly – sometimes laced with a little bit of judgement, a little bit of why the fuck would you think that was a good idea? He usually tells them the truth, or part of it anyway.

     


    Or the one where Jack Abbot is Emery Walsh's father.
