Summary
It’s the spring of ‘97 when Michael Robinavitch is dragged into a gay bar for the very first time.
When he meets Jack Abbot there, the two of them are on the cusp of radically different futures: Robby is about to begin his residency, and Jack is leaving for the army. They know better than to get attached - know the timing is wrong, the goodbye inevitable - but something tender takes root anyway. Through every deployment, Jack thinks of Robby more than he ought to; through every failed relationship, Robby wonders about what might've been.
Years later, when their paths cross again at PTMC, the past resurfaces — and though they’re older, more jaded, and scarred in different ways, they find themselves pulled towards everything they left unfinished.

Summary
“Dr. Abbot, are you asking me what I’m wearing?” Robby asked, feigning shock. Jack bit his lip and closed his eyes for a moment. What a gift it was to catch this man with his guard down, with his voice low and warm like caramel sauce on apple pie. “Are you using a line on me?”
Jack finds himself on the roof again.
