    Summary

    Otabek returns from vacation to meet the new paramedic in town, but is taken aback by Yuri's cold demeanor until he becomes aware of his past.

     

    Yuri jerked upright in bed. The nightmare of events many months ago still plagued him despite intensive therapy and relocating. He held out a hand and tried to still the violent tremors racking his body. That night had changed his life forever, had changed who he was. Gone was the jovial prankster, replaced by a cold husk of a man that expected full accountability by all.

    “Please,” Yuri whispered into the dark, grabbing a bottle of pills from his nightstand and taking two, “Leave me be. Rest. It’s not my fault. I tried. Blame the fucking firefighters.”
