    Summary

    After six months of radio silence, Buck finally reaches for the phone, ready to patch things up. Tommy, though? He's done waiting for Buck to decide when he wants to show up.

    Tommy's heart still carries the bruise, but he's moving forward anyway. Then Cody Abrams arrives, a sharp, steady paramedic from New York on a six-month exchange at Harbor Station, and suddenly there's something warm and real flickering between them.

    Both men are still haunted: Tommy by the man he can't quite let go of, Cody by the ghosts he's carried across the country. One reckless night with Buck later, Tommy wakes up certain of two things: some doors should stay closed, and clinging to ashes only burns you twice.

    At the station, Cody watches Tommy carry the weight of yesterday and quietly decides: maybe this man is worth the risk. Maybe love deserves a second chance, even when the past keeps trying to haunt the room, especially since Tommy is showing interest in more than Cody's paramedic skills. Can Tommy and Cody learn to leave yesterday behind and find their way to a shared tomorrow?
