Fics like Pt. No. 10 (What We Owe Each Other)

Ten years after graduation, Aaron works as an emergency doctor in Charleston while his twin Andrew has gone pro, living with his partner Neil in Columbia. Beyond occasional texts, they haven't managed to get any closer than they were in college. A routine 24-hour Saturday shift becomes anything but when a John Doe with severe head trauma arrives. As Aaron fights to save him, too many details align, reminding him of a certain number 10 striker he once knew. OR "Aaron." Andrew's sharp voice forced him to focus. "What are you doing here?" Aaron turned to face his brother. Tried to find words. Andrew's eyes narrowed at the lack of response. "Where's Neil?" The question hit like a physical blow. "What?" "Neil." Andrew's hands clenched into fists. "He's in Charleston for some media thing with his team. You work in Charleston. You're still wearing your badge." His breathing started to shallow. "It's 6:30 in the morning. We don't do surprise visits, hell we don't even do any visits. Yet you felt the need to drive two hours to see me at dawn, right after your shift. So I'll ask one more time. Where is Neil?"
