He saves lives for a living. She's running out of time. At twenty-eight, he has learned how to hold a dying child's hand without letting his own shake, how to walk out of hospital rooms and still function like nothing inside him just broke. People call him brilliant, detached, untouchable. They don't see the exhaustion that sleep never fixes, or the quiet guilt he carries like a second heartbeat. At twenty-three, she is all stubborn hope and unfinished dreams. A girl who collects moments like they are something she can keep, a girl who smiles like she has forever, even when her heart says otherwise. When their worlds collide, it isn't gentle. It is sharp, inconvenient, and far too personal. He is supposed to treat her, keep a professional distance, remain just her doctor. She refuses to be just another case file, another patient he forgets how to feel for. Somewhere between hospital corridors and late-night conversations, something begins to shift. Lines blur. Silences grow heavier. And the kind of love they never planned for starts to take shape in the spaces they were trying so hard to protect. But love, in a world measured by heartbeats and deadlines, comes with a cost. Because sometimes, saving someone means losing yourself.
 And sometimes, the hardest truth to face is that not every story is meant to last forever. Just to give you a sense of what to expect, the story explores dynamics like: Wattpad Author × Doctor Childhood bestfriends to Strangers to Lovers Sunshine × Black Cat Energy Soft Girl × Emotionally Unavailable Man She Falls First, He falls harder "I Know You Can, But Let Me" Love He Doesn't Save Her, He Teaches Her to Live Overprotected Girl × The Man Who Sets Her Free Slow Burn That Feels Like Home He Notices Everything About Her She Writes Love, He Becomes It "You Wrote Me Wrong" Trope Wishlist Romance (He Fulfills Her Small Dreams) Emotional Intimacy > Physical Romance

Left the safehouse minutes before we reached. Almost like... someone warned her." Piya didn't flinch. She poured him coffee with a calm he didn't question. "Maybe she's lucky," she said. He stepped closer. "No. It's not luck. She moves like someone's guiding her." A beat. "Or protecting her." Her phone buzzed in her pocket - one vibration. Atasha was safe. Piya looked up at him. His eyes were on her - sharp, searching. "Then maybe you need to stop thinking like a cop..." She smiled softly. "...and start thinking like a woman who has nothing left to lose." Their eyes locked. Long. Quiet. Dangerous. Ikshit stepped closer - invading her space. Testing something he couldn't name. "And what kind of woman are you, Piya?" His voice dropped to a murmur. She didn't back away. "The kind who hides the truth behind a kiss," she whispered, kissing him. And when he kissed her - hard, desperate, confused. She was kissing him back. Knowing full well... He was chasing her best friend. While falling in love with the enemy.

Anyway, you are going to die within a year, so neither I nor you will have any problem."

His thumb pressed slightly at her nape, grounding her, trapping her in his presence, "But don't mistake that for kindness," he continued, his voice low and controlled, "Hate is easy, Naina. Very Easy... Clean... Simple." His lips hovered near her temple, his breath warm."What I feel for you," he whispered, "is far more dangerous." ...................................................... "How. Dare. You. Step. Out." Naina's pulse hammered. She tried to step sideways, but his other arm lifted instantly, blocking her completely. The wall behind her chilled her spine; the man in front of her set her skin on fire. He dipped his head slightly, eyes dragging over her face, down to her neck, then lower... to the suit she wore. A slow, humorless breath left him."Make-up." His jaw flexed."Mascara. Lip tint." His breath warmed her cheek."You don't wear this for me, but you wore it to walk around outside?"

"It's fucked up I wanna kiss you huh" I whisper, looking at her lips. With her back against the wall, my body inches away from hers. "Noah, stop, we can't" she says, diverting her eyes. As she pressed her hands on my chest, pushing me away. I placed my hands on the wall on each side of her. "Then stop me" I softly whisper, leaning in......
