Summary
Pope holds out his hand to her. In his palm is a bolt, stainless steel, hexagonal head. Anodized a warm, dark brown, made to match the safe it was attached to.
She takes it and turns it over, brow furrowed. "What is this?"
"A bolt."
"I can— I can see that much. Why are you giving me a bolt?"
He likes how it looks in her hand. "It’s the same color as your eyes."

Pope Cody likes Samira Mohan very much and is going to do some breaking and entering about it.

Summary
He presses open-mouthed kisses to her collarbones, tugs her shirt aside, down, away to kiss more of her, and when he deems it enough or when he finally loses the fight to drawing anything out in the name of anticipation, he lays the flat of his tongue onto her skin and licks up the length of her throat all the way to her ear.
The skin turns cold immediately, and goosebumps race down Samira's arms as Jack's saliva cools, only to be warmed right back up by the next lick, again and again, until he's happy with how many shivers he's chased down Samira's back.
Biting or sucking is no part of it. If she feels Jack's teeth on her neck, it's a quick slide against the skin, a stumble without intention.
Or:
Jack respects Samira.Bookmarked by maybemelon

Summary
Honestly, he expected the crash to hit him sooner. Once Robby was off the roof. Once they were out of the hospital. Once the alcohol hit his system. That was the whole point of meeting in the park, to weather the crash together. Co-regulation isn’t always an option, he could hear his therapist reminding him for the millionth time, but if it is, it can be a huge help. And wasn’t that what he was just saying to Robby? We survived as a species because we learned how to cooperate and communicate...

Summary
Samira Mohan’s life is divided cleanly into two distinct halves: before PittFest and after it. She will never again be the person she was when she clocked in for that shift. She will never forget the give of her patient’s skull beneath an EZ-IO or the slip of the pigtail catheter between her fingers. Even months later, she’s still struggling to unpack all the ways that day changed her life.
Perhaps the strangest residual effect is that Jack Abbot sort of, inexplicably, becomes her best friend.
---
Or: Samira Mohan finds her way through residency and subsequently stumbles onto a whole lot more.

Summary
This was their game, her and Jack. It had begun shortly after Pitt fest and had been slowly growing more and more by the year. It took her a while to understand that he was flirting with her. She knew he was a flirt, god the whole state probably knew that Jack Abbot was a flirt, but she had always counted herself out of that equation. That was until he had stared into her soul after teaching her a dangerous field procedure he probably hadn’t done in twenty years and told her she was the most brilliant doctor he had ever met.
She tried not to think about how domestic it felt, their little routine. He made her coffee every morning, and she made him a cup at night. Then they threatened to kiss one another and that was that. It was simple. Flirting. That was simple, easy. Right?
--
Samira and Jack have a mildly complicated, very flirtatious, loving friendship. Things start to change when an emergency renders Samira's apartment unusable and Jack just so happens to have a place for her to stay. Suddenly, it's a lot harder for Samira to push down all the feelings she has for Jack Abbot.

Summary
“How do you not have a date for this, anyway? You’re…”
He glanced back at her, eyebrows raised, not sure where she is going with this but hopeful. “Going to finish presenting your diagnosis, Dr. Mohan?”
“Never mind. The cockiness explains it.”
He gave her a crooked grin, “I asked my sister, but she said she’d rather be my patient.” He turned serious. They were on her block now. “I may have downplayed it. Didn’t want to spend this charming anniversary with someone who didn’t go through it. And didn’t want to drag someone who went through it to this dog and pony show.” He glanced sideways at her. “You were the first person I thought of. We worked together almost the whole night. You deserve this honor even if the wrong people are giving it in the wrong way. But just because you can handle one jackass-“ he gestured at himself, “doesn’t mean you want to be in a room with four hundred more.”
With Robby not exactly PR material, Dr. Jack Abbot finds himself the reluctant but compelling face of the hospital’s capital campaign in the wake of PittFest. As black tie events become an excuse to spend more time with a certain Dr. Samira Mohan, he wonders if the role doesn't have some benefits.

Summary
Samira has a five-year plan: finish her residency, complete a fellowship, and continue her research into racial disparities in the ER. She wants to become the kind of doctor who wouldn’t miss the warning signs of a heart attack in a man like her father.
Samira and Jack have been seeing each other for almost a year, which is to say, they sleep together, know everything about one another, have keys to each other’s places, cook for each other, and Samira owns more of Jack’s clothes than her own.
But they’re not in a relationship. Samira refuses to be the resident who fell in love with an attending, and she won’t let anything distract her from her work.
There are no labels. It’s casual, it’s fun, it’s easy.
Right?

Summary
Dr. Abbot rifles through his pockets until he finds a piece of scrap paper and a pen. He scribbles something on it, using his thigh as a support, before offering the paper to her. “Take my number. In case you need to talk.”
Samira feels overwhelmed by his kindness. Her fingers brush against his as she gingerly takes the paper from his hand and Samira can’t help the shiver that runs up her spine at the brief contact. “Thank you, Dr. Abbot. I mean it.”
“Call me Jack.” Dr. Abbot – Jack – starts to make his way back towards the stairwell. “Take as long as you need, Dr. Mohan. I’ll handle Robby.”
Samira is left alone on the rooftop, fingers gripping tight onto that little piece of paper, ignoring the strange flutter in her chest.

The old woman's hand suddenly clamps around Samira's wrist with surprising strength and then there's the metallic rattling of a cuff closing. "What—" she tries, tugged back by the sudden weight around her hand.
