"So everything alright on the home front?" Jack asked ever so casually to his best friend at lunch one day.
He had noticed his best friend worried more than usual. He had begun a habit of checking his phone every few minutes.
Mac almost did a spit take when he heard him. "What?"
"You know what I mean. You and Taylor."
Macgyver rolled his eyes, but finally came to a response when he saw the serious look on his face. "Not too great. I'm always gone. I know it's our job, but I'm seriously considering telling her and just having her join in the lab. She's smart enough."
"You know that's just as dangerous as not knowing." Jack replied with a slight shake of his head.
"Yeah, but may-" he was cut off by his phone. Unknown caller.
"Hello?"
"Is this Angus Macgyver?"
"Yes, who is this?"
"My name is Claire I work at the LA central hospital. I'm calling for a... Taylor Lamoine?"
"Yes, she's my girlfriend. Is something wrong?"
"Miss Lamoine was in a car accident. You had better come."
Beeeeeeeeepppp.

Jack raced down the hall and slowly realized how much out of shape he was compared to Macgyver. Mac was yards in front of him in the hallways of the hospital. He finally just stopped at the desk and asked cutting in front of a man. "Where's Taylor Lamoine?"
250.
To the right. Down the hall. Left.
Second room on the turn.
He rounded the corner and saw her asleep with bandages from her forehead to her toes. One leg was elevated and the other looked swollen. Her arm rested on a pillow and her face looked like Hitler had discovered she had green eyes.
   He slowly walked to the side of the bed and caught his breath. He reached out for her hand and slipped it into her fingers. She twitched slightly but didn't move. Jack finally entered and took her other side just as she began to open her eyes.
  Her green eyes were hazy with confusion and her pupils screamed that she was in pain, but her face was relaxed when they landed on a blue eyed face.
  "Mac?"
He nodded and she smiled, and tried to hide a wince.
"What happened?"
She took a breath before Jack handed her some water.
"I was at the country road side when some idiot pushed me off the road. Bounced off a couple trees. Did a few parquet flips and landed in the stream."
"How many were in the car? Was it a truck?"
She nodded. "Big black truck, off road tires, extended bed the whole deal. Two guys up front and one was in the bed."
  Mac paled. They had just stopped a gang crew from releasing a drug into the air next to a school. That matched the kind of trucks they used. Off road. Extended. These were the guys they had just busted. It must of been part of their gang!
  Mac nodded and took a step back. "Get some rest."
She didn't respond for she had already escaped the land of the living.

4 months later

Taylor finally had gotten rid of her crutches though sometimes there was a sickening pain in her head. Other than that she was back to Normal. But their relationship was anything besides stable.
  Mac was avoiding her.
"Hey, you wanna go to the park?"
"Catch a movie?"
"Picnic?"
All these went unanswered.
He blew it off with busy or need space. Finally Taylor had enough.
"ANGUS!" He looked up at her surprised.
"You have been ignoring me for months now. Tell me what I did."
He sighed. "Nothing you did."
He walked up to her passed the couch.
  "Look. I didn't want to tell you and I've been debating. I think I had better leave." Taylor couldn't believe her ears.
"Why?"
"I'm dangerous."
The tears began to trickle down her face.
He walked into the back room and began to pack. She went outside to grab some air, but she noticed a bullet hole in Macs car. Realizing there was no way Mac didn't care for her and he was truly scared for her, she made a decision.
  Macgyver threw his bag into the back seat and slid into the drivers. He jumped when he heard a voice.
  "You remember when we were kids? We would say, "Id die for you." And laugh it all off as a joke. Thinking maybe one day we can be spies or FBI. I just realized, I can't imagine you living a different life than that. All those lies about work. You weren't lying on purpose. You just couldn't tell the truth."
He sighed and looked back at her.
"Look, Tay-"
She cut him off. "Stop. Let me finish. We all have a choice in what we do. You chose a life of danger. I chose a life of safety. But didn't you ever hear about life changing experiences? To sum this all up, it's you and me, and you ain't ditching me now. I'd rather live today together than a hundred years alone. So you go I go."
  He looked at her long and hard and tried to think back to the first time he fell in love with her, but got confused seeing as he fell for her more everytime he glanced her way. He met determination in her irises and decided maybe this was the best way to do this. Maybe they could do it together?
   He nodded finally and put the shifter in reverse before leaving the driveway.
  From then on down the road he explained the Phoenix Foundation and how he did things that might be crazy.
  She didn't talk, but listened.

Hey hope y'all like it. The other requests will be done soon. But don't be surprised if I put a chap in of my own first.
