Your POV-

It was not, and I mean heavy emphasis on the word not!, supposed to go this way. Everything was going perfectly. Me and Tommy were back to back fighting off some weird gooey alien guys, Kate was keeping an eye from the top of some now very wrecked building and Billy was using his blue wiggly-woos to restrain a few aliens, I must have lost track of what I was doing because the next thing I know I'm being hurled up into the air and being slammed against the floor.

''Fuck!.'' I shout holding a hand to my bleeding forehead, I lay there for a moment before I hear someone running over. It's Tommy.

Tommy's POV-

I was over fighting some really ugly alien guy when I hear a loud yelp, I turn on my heel. My blood turning cold when I see her, Y/N I rush over to her and lift her head into my lap gently running my hand In her soft but now slightly bloodied h/c hair.

''Hey, you're gonna be okay yeah?.'' I ask lifting her into my arms bridal style and moving her to rest on top of a large piece of debris, my face then scrunches as I hear her scoff.

''I'm peachy pretty boy, you okay?.'' She says in return dramatically draping her hand over her head, once it makes contact with the split in the side of her head, she winces.

''Please just be careful, I absolutely do not want you dying on me just yet.'' I speed off over to where Billy is and tell him that I'm going to take Y/N back home to look after her. He nods at me once I encounter him and explain the situation.

Your POV-

I start to feel cold as my hand searches across the debris that painted the floor for Tommy not processing that he had just gone to talk to Billy. I start to panic, I have a draining feeling running through me it's heavily unpleasant. I try to call for him to whisk me up into his strong arms but to no avail all that comes out is a hoarse croak of his name. I hear some whizzing and a loud bang, he has exploded something hasn't he, I think to myself, I'm tired now and I don't want to move.

Maybe I will just have a nap, then slowly my eyes shut, they open then close a few more times the length of time my eyes close becoming longer. Then I slip into uncertain unconsciousness.

Tommy's POV-

I just finish making my way back to where I had left Y/N, I stop in my tracks, she's not dead is she? I run to her kneeling down beside her I place my ear to her mouth to see if I can hear her breathing all I want is to hear her breathe. I let a sigh of relief at the faint sound emitting from her holding her close I let a tear slip from my eye.

''I can't lose you Y/N, you and Billy are all I have left now. You've been with me ever since you guys busted me out of super juvie, you were there when our mom didn't even know who we were, you mean so much to me I can't lose you. I won't lose you.'' I say picking her up again and running home.

(Time skip to Tommy taking you home (headquarters))

Still in Tommy's POV-

The faint beeping of her heart rate monitor is the only thing keeping me sane right now. Y/N had a large-ish wound on the side of her waist, it was relatively deep so I had to get David to fix it, he is surprisingly good at dealing with wounds he left the gash on her head alone so it can air out, but when she wakes up I know that I will jump to get the necessary items to fix her up. I just can't believe I let this happen to her, I should have watched her. I know that she is a wayyyy better fighter than I am but we were watching each other's backs and I let her almost die.

I reach forward from the chair next to her bed and gently graze her cheek with my hand then running down the scratch on her neck, to her arm then her hand. I give it a gently squeeze before intertwining my hand with hers, not thinking I lean forward and brush my lips over her forehead before planting them.

Her breathing then turns uneven and I shift my focus to her open eyes, mine widen in the process as I watch her smirk.

''Shoulda gone for the lips Thomas.'' She says pointing to them. Before even responding I rush to her and pull her into a kiss, my lips moving softly with her lips. They are soft yet have a weathered roughness, it's nice. It makes me want more, one of her arms snakes over my shoulder while the other holds my face. It tells me all I want to know, she likes me just as much as I like her.

We pull apart and separate for air after kissing for what felt like an eternity. I move my forehead to rest against hers.

''You're okay.'' I say relieved shifting slightly so I am sitting next to her, I give her a kiss on the nose and sling my arm over her shoulder. ''How are you feeling?.'' I ask looking into her e/c eyes. I could stare into them for the rest of my life, and then forever after.

''I'm okay, I think.'' She says scrunching her face and leaning her head on my shoulder.

''What do you mean?.'' I reply furrowing my eyebrows slightly.

''Why did you kiss me?.'' She turns to look at me all quizzical.

''Well for one, you told me too, second I wanted to and third.'' I hesitate before finishing ''Third, I'm pretty sure I have been in love with you since the moment we met. Well actually, at first I was like 'whoa who is that super hot chick and why is she busting me out of this place' but other than that. Yeah, since the moment we met.'' I finish. I now fully take in her reaction, she doesn't look mad or freaked out. She looks surprised and happy.

She leans forward again to kiss me, this time it is filled with love yet a burning passion. Her hands slide into my hair and mine move to her hips I pull her into my lap then stand so she is in a straddle-like position I can feel her smile against my lips as I walk away from the bed. I keep my eyes open while we kiss so I can make sure we both don't trip and fall. After walking a bit further I put her down on a counter and move away from her.

''Why'd you stop.'' She says panting.

''I'm making you better.'' I say taking a First-Aid kit from on top of a cabinet. I move over to her with some alcohol wipes and clear the gash on her head, she winces so I remove the wipe and apply some anti-septic cream the dabbing it with a tissue so I can place a Band-Aid on it, once placed I kiss on top on the Band-Aid.

''Why thank you Dr. Shepherd, that was oh so kind of you.'' She giggles and grabs a bowl, I look at her confused but then she opens a cupboard and pulls out a selection of snacks. While she gets the snacks I move up behind her and snake my arms around her waist.

''I'm yours now, always and forever.''
