    Summary

    “Call a therapist”. The precision of the cut Yolanda absolutely meant to make but surely didn’t aim for such depth – was another thing to think right after the memory of Langdon’s voice daring to utter; “I’d be happy to teach Dr. Santos” and Garcia not even blinking when –

    Picking up the phone and saying, “No”, when Yolanda asked to swing by for the evening; was the easiest thing Trinity had done all week.

    But following up with, “I think we’re done”, had choked the oxygen out. 

    She didn’t catch the flutter of Yolanda’s breathing; too busy trying to fight her way out the window to sit on the hot metal of the fire escape and try to suck in a clear inhale. She did catch the precise delivery of a “cool, thanks for the heads up”, before Garcia hanged up the phone.

    Or

    Trinity never expected her apartment to have a steady, rotating population of med students.

    Summary

    “Well...Baran Al-Hashimi, it was very nice to meet you. I hope to see you soon.” Trinity stuck out her hand to shake.

    The second their hands touched, it was like time had stopped. The sound and smell of downtown Pittsburg seemed to vanish. The only thing either of them focused on was the skin to skin contact pulsing electricity through their bodies.

    “What a shame, the next time will be in scrubs.” Baran had said, “I quite like this look on you.”

    With that comment, Baran finally allowed her eyes to travel down Trinity’s body, lingering on her chest where the top three buttons of her shirt were undone. She walked away towards the door, with a smirk on her lips and hips swinging bigger than they usually did.

    Summary

    Summary

    One of the hardest parts of working in the healthcare system was realising how no one had fought for her when she was a child. No one had protected her. So Trinity would be damned if she let this patient go without helping her, even if it costs her everything.

    Or,
    Trinity has a very bad, no good day and has very complicated feelings around the fact no one seems willing to give up on her

    Summary

    Three weeks after the end of a ten month situationship, Trinity Santos decides a change of scenery is exactly what she needs.

    Unfortunately, her version of a change of scenery is transferring to night shift. Now her life consists of trauma alerts at three in the morning, Jack Abbot acting like he's won the lottery, John Shen committing crimes against coffee, Parker Ellis complaining about everything, Crus Henderson laughing at all of it, and Emery Walsh appearing with alarming frequency.

    Santos tells herself she's starting over.

    Walsh tells herself Santos is temporary.

    Neither of them is remotely correct.

    As shifts turn into routines and routines turn into something far more dangerous, Santos finds herself becoming part of the Night Crawlers and spending more and more time with the one person capable of matching her stubbornness. The problem is that some relationships happen all at once. Others happen one shift at a time.

    Or: Santos transfers to nights to get away from her ex. Instead, she accidentally finds a family, a home, and a trauma surgeon who keeps showing up.

    Or: The slowburn walshtos I want in the world
