Selina Smith

I hear the gunshot, but I didn't move, I don't know where I could've moved, my body was sore, I could only hear what happened around me, but I couldn't move. I felt a body tumble next to me. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

I hear Nick running away from the crime scene. No, fuck, Chase.

I use all the strength I had in me to pull Chase on top of me, he groans out in pain, no, it's not fair, I didn't expect the untimely demise, not now, not ever, we didn't even get our goodbyes.

"Selina!"

I was out.

I wake up to the sound of a heart monitor beeping, I open my eyes and struggle to breath, I felt a fucking pipe in my throat. Aghh, help, "no, no, no, don't pull it out!" I hear a voice demanding me not to touch anything, "it's helping you breathe" huh, how the fuck?

"You will get to see your guests when you wake up and when you are stable" I hear, what I think, was the doctor announcing before he leaves. I was out once again.

This time I awoke to the sounds of voices, Holly was hushing everyone, before she says, "shut the fuck up, did you not hear the doctor?" I open my eyes slowly, the pipe was no longer there, thank god.

"Hey, girl, how are you?" She asks, placing a hand on my shoulder.

"Chase?" was the one thing I could mumble with this dick-like pipe down my throat. Damn that gave me thoughts. Everyone turned heads to look at each other before returning there gaze to me.

The doctor came in and put me on something so I knocks out for a couple of seconds and when I woke up the pipe was gone.

"Selina, Chase? He didn't... he isn't here" Jake tells me, clenching his jaw tightly. What, no, no, no, no. Tears instantly rolls down my cheeks, "He's... the fucker got put in some prestigious room or something" Jake adds on with a smirk at the end. I throw my head back in comfort, fuck, he wasn't dead, I didn't kill him.

"Why the fuck did you have to say it like that, you scared the shit out of me" I tell him, gently throwing a pillow at him. He catches it and chuckles, "sorry, it was just worth seeing the look on your face".

"When can I see him?" I ask turning my head towards Holly, who looks at Jake, who looks at the clock, "fuck knows" he mumbles, shrugging his shoulders.

I flip over the duvet, revealing my bare legs, as I climb of the bed, gripping tightly on to the portable IV as I stand. "Woah" Jake exclaims, "I don't think you should be up and about now" he tells me, holding out 2 hands to support me from falling.

"I have to see him" I tell them all in the room, before I take my first step. Wow, this was my first step in... in ages.

As I take my step, I could suddenly feel my legs getting weaker and weaker by a millisecond. "Ow" I mumble as my foot collides gently with the floor, it sent spiking waves through my legs. Jake continues to hold out his hands in support.

"I'll need to learn how to walk again, best be sooner than later" I tell Jake as he takes steps towards me. Before this, I'd never really spoke to Jake, this was my first interaction with him, and so far, he's making a pretty good impression on himself.

"Uh oh, overprotective brother alert" I glare at Holly.

She sniggers and turns her gaze towards Jake, "hey, your never like this with me" she frowns at him, "yeah, well, Hol, a; she's your best friend and b; she's currently fucking my best mate" he says.

"What?!" I exclaims and they both turn there gaze to me.

Jake chuckles, "do you really think we're idiots?" He asks, before Holly places a hand over his face, "yeah, well you are, but we kind of knew it all along, you and Chase always had a natural glow on your face, and you 2 would always disappear on school together" she tells me.

I chuckle in happiness, "oh my god" I say to her, "I'm sorry, I didn't know how to tell you, and I thought if I told later, you'd hate me". "What?" Holly says walking up to me, "I could never be pissed at you, and if Chase makes you happy, then I'm satisfied with that" she tells me, as she gently hugs me.

I continue to step and Jake was behind me every step I took, "I'll leave when you sit" he says to me, we head into the elevator and he presses the top button, "top floor, huh?" I say as Jake nods, "yeah, his rich-ass granddad got the top floor and best help possible" .

I hear the sound of the elevator, ding as we walk out the door, I spied a pretty nurse, she looked quite young, in her 20s maybe, she was holding a clipboard, "hi" Jake says to her as she stops.

"Oh, hello, can I help you?" She asks turning her gaze towards me and gives me a heartwarming smile. "Yeah, -um, a patient was assigned here, I think he's done for his bullet removal surgery".

"Ahh, yes, follow me" she says curling her finger and turning around. She opens a door to reveal a sleeping Chase. I take a seat in the chair next to him, and place my hand on his. "I'll see ya" Jake says before taking off, closing the door behind us.

"Fuck, I'm sorry, actually, no wait, I'm not, your a fucking asshole, I'm the one who's supposed to be in pain, and shot, why the fuck did you have to be my Batman for?" My voice slowly loses itself, it cracks slightly, "you dickhead" I managed to say before I sob out.

My hand grips tighter on his, my head rests on his arm. "Wow" I hear a voice croak out, I lift my head up in alert, staring deeply into his eyes. "I did not expect it to go like that" he says to me.

"Heh" was the one thing I managed to get out.

"Why are you crying for, Smith?" He asks, using the pad of his thumb to wipe my tear away on my, probably pink as fuck cheek.

"I- you- that bullet was supposed to hit me, not you, you came in the way for what? It's all my fault" I say, tears continue to roll down my cheeks. "Hey, no, no, don't you dare, it's not your fucking fault, don't you ever apologize to me again" he tells me, I look up at him and he nudges to the side a bit.

"Come here" he says.

"What about your injury?" I ask.

He chuckles back, "heh, you know what, I'm probably high as fuck on painkillers right now, and I don't know whether or not you're actually here" he says to me as I climb onto his bed carefully.

"Also the injury is on my other shoulder, my shoulder blade, so it doesn't really matter" he says to me, as I place my head on his chest. "Doesn't matter? Of course it fucking matters, it's still your shoulder" I tell him.

"Do you wanna know why I took that fucking bullet for you? I took it because you mean the entire world to me, my world revolves around you now, and no matter if you leave me, I'll fucking hunt you down and make you be mine again, your mine, always and forever" Chase tells me, the vibration from his chest, sent butterflies to my stomach.

"I fucking love you" he says.

"I love you too, so much" I tell him, gently kissing him on his jawline.
