Late Night Shift Blues

Anonymous Wicked Wraith #187 · General

Woke up last night from a nightmare about my ex, crying alone in the dark. Couldn't sleep so I headed to work early for some quiet time before patients arrived. Ended up walking around the empty hospital halls, just staring at old patient files, trying to distract myself. Met a guy there though who was waiting for someone, we got to talking and he could tell something was off with me. Turned out he used to be a nurse too. We ended up in an on-call room, kind of like how it used to be with my ex...but different somehow. The sex felt more about comfort than anything else, just two people trying to soothe each other's pain. It left me feeling a little better but also confused, I'm not sure where this is going or if he even wants something real.
