This story is entirely true, from my very own experience. This is the story of my time as a sweet medical student, when I fell for an emotionally constipated surgeon, and somehow managed to break through the hard shell encasing his heart. I hope you enjoy it and let me know what you think.

Code A++
She came in unconscious with a cracked skull and a past that read like a case file. Melinda Sage wasn't supposed to survive the trauma buried in her bones. But she did. What she didn't expect was Alex Karev. The surgeon who didn't ask stupid questions. The one who listened. The one who never left. In a hospital full of chaos, the loudest thing was the silence where healing finally began. This is a story about fractures-of the body, of the soul, of everything that shatters when you learn to trust again. And the boy who slept on her lap because it was the only place he felt safe.

But fate has other ideas. One heated night in a dark alleyway with a stranger should have remained in the past. What he didn't expect was to walk into the OR and find that same captivating stranger scrubbing in as his resident. Fierce, brilliant and recklessly alluring, Dr. Seth Mickelson is everything Leonardo shouldn't want and exactly who he can't stop thinking about. Sharing an operating room is one thing. Surviving the daily burn of proximity is another. Leonardo's rules were simple: he wasn't the type of boss who chased after his subordinates.

Ribbons, Rumors, and Her ✔
[@TheAmbys 2025 Favorites (Top Pick)] Bullied and bruised, Adam has survived high school by keeping his head down. Those bothered by his quiet, eccentric nature? They are the 'pretty' ones. The ones with comfortable backgrounds. The ones at the top. When an attractive transfer becomes his seat neighbour for the rest of the semester, Adam is naturally wary - partly because of her brawny sibling in senior year, and partly because she checks every box on his list of people to avoid: pretty, rich, and popular. With an angelic smile, twinkling sapphire eyes and ribbons in her golden hair, her persona screams perfection. A level he won't be able to achieve even in his quirkiest of daydreams - not like he'd ever want to. After all, despite her odd choice of friends, her playful teasing, and her persistent efforts to win his trust, isn't she just another heartless bully? ••• Featured on: @humor - DiverseLit Humor (Sept 2025) @Ambassadors - Slice Of Life (Sept 2025) @humor - Ambassadors' Monthly Pick (Oct 2025) @humor - Ambassadors' Pick List (May 2026)Complete
