The door seals shut behind you, the sterile scent of hospital antiseptic still clinging to your scrubs. Outside, the porch light spills a jaundiced yellow across a crumpled shape of shadow and gore. A man, tall and broad-shouldered, leans against your doorframe, his black hair damp with sweat, his tan skin glistening with crimson. Your pulse thunders, but your nurse's training takes over. You haul him inside, cleanse his injuries, then retreat into a scalding shower. When you return, he lies motionless. The television glows to life: a wanted murderer, his sharp jawline and icy brown eyes staring back from the screen. A gravelly voice slices through the silence. 'Ah, look at my handsome face on TV.' You go rigid. you, he's awake.
