‘Riggs.’ You said, and he whipped around to you. Your hand pressed to the left of your stomach the crimson red staining your blouse. You gun feel the ground as you looked up at him, feeling light headed already. Within a second he was guiding you down onto the ground, pressing his hands onto your wound, as you gasped lightly.
‘Stay with me. I need to see those pretty eyes.’ He commented, you smiled weakly as you blinked struggling to keep them open, until you felt a warm hand against your cold cheek.
‘Talk to me.’ Riggs commanded as he looked at you worriedly, you heard the sound of faint sirens approaching.
‘Murtaugh.’ He said. You managed to raise an eyebrow and he chuckled.
‘He’s stuck up sometimes, but mostly for the best.’ You whispered. Riggs nodded in agreeance.
‘Why is it so cold?’ You questioned, Riggs looked at you face, which had paled and his heart broke.
‘It’s just gotten chilly, that’s all.’ He replied, swallowing thickly, the ambulance coming to a stop outside.
‘Hey Y/N?’ He said, you hummed.
‘I love you. Okay, I should have told you earlier but I’m a wuss and now I’m telling you when your bleeding out.’ He stated, he looked up and noticed you had stopped breathing.
‘Quick, she’s not breathing.’ He shouted at the paramedics as they arrived at the door way. They dropped their equipment before getting to work.
‘Sir, I need you to move.’ One said but he didn’t acknowledge them.
‘Come on man.’ Murtaugh said as he gently took his shoulders. Riggs stood up but continued watching you.
‘We need to get her to the hospital, or she doesn’t have a chance.’ the older on said, as they moved her onto the bed.
‘We’ll give you a police escort.’ Murtaugh said as they followed them out. Riggs going into Murtaugh’s car silently.

He watched as the clear water ran over his hands and turned a faint red, before disappearing down the drain. Once all the blood was gone he looked up at the mirror, his hands resting on the edge of the sink. He continued staring at his reflection before he screamed out and punched the glass, it breaks into pieces everywhere. The door swung open and Murtaugh ran in.
‘Riggs?’ He questioned, never having seen Riggs this broken.
‘I mucked up. I always muck up.’ He sobbed as he slides down the wall and ran his non-cut hand through his hair.
‘Don’t say that.’
‘I told her I loved her and she’s in there with a hole in her side.’ He exclaimed, Murtaugh grabbed some of the toilet roll before placing it on Riggs hand, to stop the bleeding.
‘She’ll be fine. She’s fighter.’ Murtaugh told him.
-
‘How is she?’ Murtaugh questioned.
‘Awake but drowsy.’ The doctor said, and everyone was watching him.
‘The bullet missed all the major organs, luckily. She’ll be in here for a week before there’s even a discussion of her getting home. Then with her job maybe a three to four months before she can go back out into the field again.’ The doctor informed the small group that had gathered.
‘Can we see her?’ Murtaugh questioned, the doctor shook his head.
‘No, sorry. She only wants to see Riggs.’ He said, and Riggs looked up.
‘What?’ He questioned.
‘She’s refusing painkillers unless you go in and talk to her.’ The doctor explained.
‘So please go, but only you, so she can take the meds.’ The doctor said, and Riggs was out his seat and slowly walking towards your room. He opened the door and smiled when he saw you, watching him.
‘I heard you’re refusing meds.’ Riggs said as the door closed behind him. he took you in paler than you normally were and, but you were better than when he last saw you.
‘What happened to your hand?’ You asked him as you took in his appearance.
‘I had a disagreement with a mirror.’ He said, as he took the bandaged hand into his back pocket.
‘Why aren’t you taking the meds?’ He asked you again.
‘I need to be clear headed when I say this.’ You told him.
‘I heard what you said before I blacked out.’ You explained.
‘It was only to get you to stay awake.’ He said, brushing it off.
‘Okay, sure. Well then I’ll just have to tell someone else then that I love them as well.’ You said as you tried to get comfy in the bed. He hesitated before he walked over and captured your lips with his, you winched slightly but stopped when Riggs deepened the kiss. You both smiled as you pulled away.
