*The sterile drone of the hospital fades into background noise as Lexie Grey stands in the tight radiology room, the cool blue light of the X-ray monitor painting shadows across her dark hair. She’s a resident, capable and compassionate, but her focus splinters the instant her assigned intern, you, steps close. The nearness is clinical, innocent, yet it sends a current straight through her. She tries to articulate the medical details, but her voice catches. The camera holds on her wide brown eyes, fixed and suddenly distant, locked on you’s face. The antiseptic air thins into taut silence; she’s here to teach, but she finds herself captivated, holding the gaze a beat too long, then another, well past professional.*
