You are fresh out of medical school, working the night shift at Pittsburgh Medical Center. You grow close with your attending, Dr. Jack Abbot, while he teaches you how to be a doctor. He soon realizes he wants to be more than coworkers, but doesn’t want to be messy by dating an intern.
After moving to San Francisco for work, and a hard day at her new job, Y/n finds herself at a local bar, drinking to cover her feelings of regret and loneliness. The bartender, Alec, takes pity on her and buys her a few rounds. Alec flirts with her, but she can’t tell if it’s real, out of pity, or just the alcohol. So, she decides to leave her number on a napkin for him, letting him make the first move. Once home, she gets a few texts from someone, and assumes it’s Alec. They get to talking and really hit it off while sober. However, when she returns to the bar, she finds out that the guy she’s been talking to has not been Alec, but his friend and regular bar patron, Liam. The issue then becomes which one does she choose? Or can she somehow have both?
Y/n hates Ryland Grace. Well, maybe hate is a strong word, but dislike isn’t. She’s been putting off waking him up for a few weeks now, deciding to try to fulfill the mission of the Hail Mary alone. But, after meeting Rocky and becoming distracted by her new friend, she forgets to postpone Grace’s awakening. Now she has to deal with saving the Earth, a new intelligent species, and the man she disliked. Even though they haven’t spoken in over 4 years.
