3rd Time's the Charm

Tired of relationships gone bad, Doctor Nick Davros has sworn off dating. Between his student loans and his erratic work schedule, he doesn’t have the time or the energy to spare. Of course, that’s when Construction Supervisor John Turner walks into his clinic. Not just once, but twice. Despite his attraction, Nick is determined to not give in. He couldn’t bear it if John became the one sitting across the table giving him the break-up speech. John Turner is tired of being alone and wants a family again. He gave up a scholarship in favor of construction work in order to raise his brother and sister. Now, just like his college boyfriend, they are embarrassed by his blue-collar life. He’s attracted to the delectable Dr. Davros, but when he makes his move Nick turns him down. When tragedy strikes, it’s up to Nick to make a house call they’ll never forget. Will their 3rd meeting be the charm to bring their opposite worlds together?

“They’re on to us.”

“Damn.”

Nick grumbled when herded into the back of the ambulance. But the technicians let him pull medical rank and sit beside John’s gurney instead of being seated on one of his own.

He nodded, both approving and amused when they ignored John’s protests and strapped him in. He held John’s hand, rubbing the callused fingers between his own while they hooked John up to the monitors and injected him with a mild painkiller after a check of his vitals and approval from the hospital they were headed to.

The radio squelched and fuzzed in the background, muting the paramedics’ conversation. John’s eyes drooped closed as the vehicle pulled away from the scene. He hadn’t given in to the inevitable until Bobby promised to meet them at the hospital and fill John in. “Don’t forget,” he muttered, his words slurring. “We got a date tonight.”

“Dinner with your sister.” Nick squeezed his hand. “I remember.”
