Everyone in the hospital loves Ethan Hayes. He’s the pediatric surgeon who remembers every patient’s name, brings stickers to every ward round, and somehow makes even the worst days feel lighter. He’s warm, endlessly patient, and impossible not to like. Everyone, that is, except Y/N. Y/N is known for being strict, quiet, and intensely routine-driven. She doesn’t do small talk, doesn’t linger after shifts, and definitely doesn’t appreciate Ethan Hayes constantly appearing in her space with coffee and conversation she didn’t ask for. She avoids him. He seeks her out. She ignores him. He keeps trying. And while the rest of the hospital watches Ethan effortlessly win over everyone else, they can’t help but notice that the one person he can’t seem to crack… is the one he refuses to give up on.
