"Someone call a fucking ambulance!." Tommy screamed and cried holding the lifeless,fragile girl in his arms.

Screams were heard from every direction as people began running out of the building.

As Tommy had the girl in his arms and Grace kneeling beside him unharmed, one certain Shelby froze in horror. Tears coming to his eyes as he watched his older brother cry over the girls lifeless body.

Finn stormed over to the man who had shot Lily, kneeling over him and began punching him.

"You. Fucking. Twat. You. fucking. killed. her!" He shouted with every punch over and over again not stopping until the man was no longer breathing, only to be dragged away by his two older brother.

"That's enough Finn, he's dead." Arthur shouted at the boy cupping his face and looking him the eyes snapping him back to reality and bringing the boy in for a hug, not wanting his baby brother to see the scene of his Darling Lily being taken away on a stretcher by two doctors.

Tommy sat in a chair beside the girls hospital bed. Where he had been sat for the last two days now, blaming himself over again for what had happened to her. If only she hadn't overheard the Duchess and his conversation, if only she hadn't been so stupid as to run in front of him and Grace and saved them both from the gun shot. Of course she would do anything to save her family, but why her, it should have been him.

But Tommy also felt proud. The girl had saved his wife, he couldn't possibly know where he would be without Grace. So he also wanted to thank Lily for her recklessness and stupidity. And he didn't know how he could ever repay Lily for her bravery because if it wasn't for her Grace would be in Lily's condition, or worse dead.

Bright lights from the sun shown through the window as Lilly's eyes slowly fluttered open, she began coughing causing Tommy to shoot up.

"What the fuck." The girl whispered in a raspy voice, her throat sore.

"Hey, you're ok you're safe." Tommy said now hovering over the girl placing a hand on the side of her face.

"Where the fuck am i?." She said beginning to sit up with the help from Tommy, wincing as she felt a sharp pain in her back.

"The hospital, you gave us all a quite good scare, thought you'd died." He said sitting back down in the chair, it now being much closer to the bed as he held the girls small cold hand in his.

"You can't get rid of me that easily." making the pair of them laugh.

"Lily you almost died and you're already sat making jokes." Tommy said smiling at the girl and shaking his head, glad that she was ok.

"Tommy. can we please leave, i wanna go home." Talking in almost a whisper just loud enough for the man beside her to hear.

"Lil, you've just woken up they're not gonna let you leave until you better."

"But Tommy..."

"No, no Lily i can't, i can't just take you home while you're in this state." He argued.

"But i got you out, and you could barely walk." She defended remembering the time she bails Tommy out of the hospital. "Please."

That word was all Tommy needed to give into the girl. She looked fragile, weak and scared, but Tommy would never tell her that as she would probably slap the man and tell him to never call her that again.

Lily hated being weak, she liked to be strong and independent, do things with no help from others as she had learned to do at a very young age after her mother had passed.
