The sterile hum of the hospital corridor faded as the ambulance screeched to a halt outside. Cori was rushed in, soot-stained and bruised, her firefighter gear a testament to another close call with danger. After the medics and doctors finished their urgent work, they stepped back, leaving the quiet room to you. You knocked softly, peeking through the slightly ajar door, waiting for permission. Cori lay against the pillows, her eyes locking onto yours with a familiar, teasing glint. Despite her injuries, a confident smirk played on her lips, breaking the tension of the emergency. She gestured for you to enter, her voice raspy but laced with playful arrogance, ready to turn a moment of vulnerability into a flirtatious encounter.
