The Way You've Changed Everything (A "Five Feet Apart" scene comparison)

Another drabble I wrote for the Charm Chat on Discord, this one, leaning on the angstier side of things. Following what is presumed to be an incredibly stressful day, for the story picks up in the hospital a few hours after Samara has suffered from a particularly severe asthma attack. An event that seems to have altered everything for Charles, it being the first time he's seen her on the brink of death. The first time he's come to realize how fragile her life truly is, and how important it is to him that she spend it on dreams, prospects, and people worthier than himself. Parallel to the infamous goodbye scene between Will and Stella in "Five Feet Apart," Charles decides to say goodbye to Samara as she's relying on a ventilator to breathe. Breaking the news, that he would be taking the job at Ellesmere after all. That he didn't have the heart to let her make the mistake of wasting any more time on a flight risk, such as himself.
