Timeless: One Shots

Constant Angel

Lucy clicked through the radio, trying to find something to dim the silence. Her heart was pounding trying to suppress the fact she was in a silent hospital room. A guitar's gentle tunes filled the room causing her to stop.

I have watched you fall
Through those tender years
And every time I thought there must be more that's could do
You found a light
A different way out there in front of you

She sighed and walked back over to her chair as the song began. The hospital had been like her home for the past week. She had a chair, pillows, and a blanket stacked on it. She had to specially ask Connor Mason to ask the hospital if she could stay in his room twenty-four seven. The song continued, echoing off the white walls of the room.

I am in your eyes
Just that close to you
And now I see your innocence against a troubled sky
Everything you once believed is now a question why
Its ok

Lucy pushed her chair closer to his bed, sitting down before grasping his hand into hers. It had been a horrible accident which should have left her in this position, but he had to be heroic. It happened during one of their missions, everything had been going fine until Flynn tried something.

Flynn had lured them into a battle that he started. He tried to get all three of us killed, Lucy shook her head not wanting to relive that.

Don't lose your faith
Dont turn away
Everything that makes you who you are will not lead you astray
When it gets cold
Too dark to see
Reach in your soul and find me there,
I'll always be
Your constant angel

As hard as Lucy tried she could not suppress the memories of that horrible adventure that landed Wyatt in the hospital. Guns fired once the time team entered the scene, they had a few close calls but were alright. When they continued on to find Flynn they were attacked. Flynn was leading the troops and smirking evilly at them, advancing.

Wyatt wouldn't have it and pulled his gun to fire, but Flynn held his hand up. Men surrounded them grabbing Lucy and Rufus pulling them from Wyatt. Everything went downhill from there.

Who could ask the years
To keep its truth from you
There will be times you wont believe in much of anything
Thats when youll find the grace of God in just surrendering
Its ok

Lucy closed her eyes and rubbed circles on Wyatt's hand trying to soothe herself. Wyatt shifted, moaned a little but didn't open his eyes. Lucy was used to this though, he had been doing it a lot but he never opened his eyes. She had thanked her lucky stars that he was still with her.

Images flashed through her mind as he groaned softly, in pain. Lucy and Rufus were forced on their knees in front of the leader of Flynn's recruited army. He gave a menacing glare before he backed away. One man stepped forward and was prepared to execute both Lucy and Rufus, but Wyatt, being forced to watch, ran top speed and jumped in front of Lucy. A shot rang out and Wyatt stumbled to the ground.

Dont lose your faith
Dont turn away
Everything that makes you who you are will not lead you astray
When it gets cold
Too dark to see
Reach in your soul and find me there,
Ill always be
Your constant angel

Rufus had forced the man holding him to let go and went for Wyatt's gun. The troops backed up slightly and Rufus fired at the man who shot Wyatt. Lucy had let tears fall as the man tugged her up and began to drag her towards Flynn. She struggled until she broke free, running back to Wyatt. She had been a mess as she cried over him, Rufus still firing shots at anyone who drew close to them.

Lucy remembered vaguely as the troops retreated cowardly. Rufus hauled Wyatt's limp body up with Lucy's assistance. Wyatt continued to bleed at they hurried back to the Lifeboat, Lucy scared out of her mind.

In every prayer
I am constantly there with you
Dont lose your faith
Dont turn away

Lucy felt herself let a few tears escape as she continued to rub circles on Wyatt's hand, wanting him to wake up soon. She could not stand not seeing his beautiful blue eyes look at her or his smirk. She missed him, it had been a week since the incident.

"Wyatt, you idiot," she remembered saying to him when he came out of surgery, "You didn't have to jump in front of the bullet for me." She has muttered it to herself every single day before she dozed off.

"Wyatt," she started before kissing his cheek, "You didn't have to take a bullet for me. I'm not worth it." She closed her eyes, not removing her hand from his.

"Yes you are, ma'am," a groggy voice muttered against the music echoing in the room. Lucy shot open her eyes and saw her favorite pair of blue ones. She smiled with relief and joy, stunned that he was finally awake.

Everything that makes you who you are will not lead you astray
When it gets cold
Too dark to see
Reach in your soul and find me there,
Ill always be
Your constant angel
