Summary
He slows in the middle, he thinks, eyes following the current beneath him. He can see Liberty Bridge in the distance, downriver. The jump doesn’t look that high from here, with the distance, but it must be. High enough, at least. Christopher Sinclair was missing one of his shoes when EMS brought him in. Maybe it’s still floating down there, somewhere, or sunk to the bottom with the glasses Dennis's mind has convinced him that Christopher Sinclair had.
There were nights that I thought about jumping off one of them.
It’s Robby’s voice, pulled from the back of Dennis’s brain, clearer than any of the things actually happening around him. A walk after a bad shift. A view of the river, of the bridges lit up. And Robby, back early from his sabbatical with no warning, confessing to Dennis the thoughts that scare him most.
Dennis blinks, and he’s across the bridge. He doesn’t look back.
OR
Dennis goes home to his family after a difficulty shift.

Summary
“For the month I’ve been gone, you’re a lot bolder."
Immediately, Dennis was blushing again. Hard. Anything that previously came out of Robby’s mouth was tame compared to this charged tension in the room that Robby wasn’t even in. How did he always seem to do that?
Before Dennis could open his mouth to respond, Robby chuckled and asked, “Have you been holding back from me, Whitaker?”
OR
The first time Robby called Dennis on his sabbatical, Dennis didn't think much of it. That was until he kept calling, and Dennis always kept answering. Before he knew it, Dennis was calling him, and shit. He was in a talking stage with his boss.

Summary
Dennis gets an itch of his own as he watches Robby and Noelle's relationship unfold, and he has just the plan to get over it.
“I’ll just say that I’m the perfect kind of guy for a man like you,” Dennis teases, bringing a hand to lightly drag down the zipper of Robby’s jacket, his eyes tracking the movement deliberately.
He can hear Robby swallow audibly as he continues, voice dropping in a secretive tone, dragging the words out so he can continue to feel up his attending through his too thick jacket, “Seven week itch, no easy way out without words.”

Snapshots before and after a sabbatical.
(wishful thinking on motorcycles, fist bumps, and rolling with the punches)
