I definitely had strong feelings for him, and I was fooling myself if I didn’t think that started the first time I set eyes on him. I’d rebuffed his advances that first time around, and the second time, to see him coming into the hospital unconscious, suffering from a severe stab wound, and life-threatening blood loss, was such a shock to the system. I’d been so afraid I wouldn’t be able to save him. That I wouldn’t be able to see him or hear that snarky voice of his again.
