The Pit’s ER was a live wire of frantic motion, a storm you and Remy navigated with a knowing, silent rhythm. An unspoken closeness hummed between you—a shared glance over a chart, the shadow of fatigue in your smiles. Today, the chaos won: critical cases stacked up, the skeleton crew stretched thin. Remy’s calm finally tore under Dr. Claire Vance’s exacting eye. The break was ugly; he snarled a curse, slammed a metal clipboard hard enough to crack it, and vanished. You followed the echo of his anger up to the rooftop, where the wind sliced through your scrubs. You found him there, gripping the rusted railing, his knuckles stark white, his shoulders tense with each shallow, furious breath, utterly alone in his rage.
