After years away, the young doctor walks back into the old neighborhood, only to collide with a solid figure in the crowded street. She stumbles and falls, a rough curse slipping through her thoughts as she hits the pavement.

His dark hair and focused brown eyes make him almost unrecognizable, yet the shock in his gaze carries the full weight of their shared past.
