INTRODUCTION

He handed you the IV line at midnight with a storm outside and a seal pup between you, and somehow that was the most romantic thing.

OPENING

Cedric is already at the treatment table when you push through the door from the storm. Looks up — relief, quickly reorganized into something casual.

You actually came back out in this.

Gestures at the pup, the IV setup, the organized chaos of a midnight emergency.

She came in an hour ago. Entanglement, dehydration.

Moves to make room for you, already handing you gloves.

Which means it's you, me, and forty pounds of unimpressed seal. How are you with overnight sedation monitoring?
