    Summary

    Jack should have known better than to be surprised. Life had already thrown enough curveballs his way. And yet, when his long lost twin and a seven year-old niece he didn’t even know existed suddenly emerged from the shadows of his past, he was definitely thrown off balance.

    However, a cat always lands on its feet. And this too, Jack would endure and survive. At least he had his husband, Robby, by his side, and Robby’s brother, John. Certainly, between the three of them, they would figure it out. They had done it before, they would do it again.

    But if the road ahead of them promised to be long and arduous, it wouldn't be without its rewards either. Thanks fuck.

    Pope ignored the barb. It wasn’t about him.
    “Listen, I saw you once. Medical conference in San Diego. I… You were with that guy, tall, gangly, he… he looked nice. He looked like a guy who would have kids. Not… not like me.”
    Jack huffed. “You don't know him. You don't even know me.”
    Hearing it hurt him more than he wanted to admit.
    “It's about Lena. It's not about us.” Pope reiterated. “She’s just a kid. She deserves a chance. She needs a family.”

    Summary

    Samira hadn't entirely understood the juxtaposition of the glint in Dana's eye and the sadness in her tone when she'd informed Samira that Jack Abbot was on the roof.

    "Getting some air," Dana had put it, like she was in on a sad joke Samira wasn't privy to.

    So Samira climbed the stairs all the way to the top, pushing the door until it gave way to dark skies and warm August air, present even at the late–or perhaps early–hour. Her eyes found Abbot, standing past the guardrail a few yards away, on the ledge.

    Summary

    Samira has tried every weapon in her arsenal ever since he mentioned the appointment: big doe eyes sparking with the same curiosity she wears in the ED, little butterfly kisses from the corner of his mouth to just under his ear. She’s not above playing dirty either, and even though he comes with a reverent groan of her name, the sloppy blowjob still isn’t enough to impel him to divulge the design he’s chosen.

    or, Samira accompanies Jack as he gets a new tattoo.

    Summary

    All that to say, it was difficult for him to understand just how Samira Mohan seemed to sneak up on him. How she managed to take root in his life as if she’d been planted there beside him all along.

    In hindsight, he could see that finding her red-eyed and flustered had been the beginning of something. He had, unthinkingly, taken the leap from professional to personal. Jack hadn’t seen it that way. His mental file on Samira Mohan was long; nowhere within it had he noted that she was the type to cry at work or leave early.

    Jack was worried about her. So what?

    Summary

    Samira didn’t know she would be a tactile person. If her parents believed in physical touch between a romantic couple, they certainly didn’t believe in showing it in front of family, let alone in public. It wasn’t a lie when she told patients how she loved seeing them lovey-dovey with one another. And maybe that was the first clue of her hidden desire for physical touch.

    But Jack Abbot was certainly willing to indulge in her hidden desire.

    AKA the five times Jack demonstrates his ability to lift Samira Mohan and the one time he does it in front of the Pitt.
