A.N. Colin Firth is cute don't argue with me

As soon as Ginger saw Tequila, she knew something wasn't right, so placed him in a bed in the medical room to keep an eye on him before she ran tests.

The blue still ran through his face but had spread to his arms and the front of his body by the time he was put into bed. That meant it was spreading, which made it more serious than it was before.

Natalie stood over his bed, watching him as he rested. She bit at her thumb nail as she looked him over, the blue all over him making her even more worried than before.

She tried to rack her brain with whatever he could have done that would do this to him, but nothing came to mind. It's not everyday your face turns blue. She hoped the tests Ginger would take could shed some light on it all.

This wasn't the first time seeing Tequila in a hospital bed not knowing how he would come out of it made Natalie feel uneasy. The memory jumped back into her mind, making Natalie close her eyes so she didn't have to see the same picture again.

Last time he was in a hospital bed with Natalie looking over him with worry, was when he took a bullet for her.

The memory sticks in Natalie's head to this day and the anger she felt when it happened grew in her again just thinking about it. He shouldn't have stepped in front of her when the guy pulled the trigger, he could have died. Of course if he didn't do what he did, Natalie might have died instead. But Natalie, at the time, only cared about Tequila and was mad at him for jumping in front of her. He was and still is an idiot.

Natalie felt a hand on her shoulder, making her jump. The memory still lingered in her mind.

"It's only me." Merlin's soft Scottish accent calmed Natalie, making her smile up at him, reassuring him she was okay. "Any change?" Merlin asked, nodding towards Tequila.

"Not since Ginger was here." Natalie informed, her eyes wondering over Tequila's body. The man was still fit, Natalie couldn't argue with that.

"I'm sure he'll come out of this absolutely fine. But you're still worried, as I suspected."

Natalie sighed. Merlin was the only one from Kingsman who knew of what went on between her and Tequila. She couldn't help but spill all on the plane home. She cried most of the way home that day. After a whiskey or two obviously.

Merlin was the only one who understood how much this sight must be hurting her.

"Any news on Eggsy?" Natalie asked, turning to face the bald man so she didn't have to look at Tequila any longer.

"Last time I heard, he landed back in England to meet Agent Whiskey." Natalie nodded, Whiskey's name being recognised.

"He informed me of the absence of a phone for you, so he bought one for you." Merlin went into his jacket pocket and pulled out a brand new IPhone. The same kind she had before. Natalie smiled, taking the phone from Merlin. Eggsy was always thinking of her even when they were apart and doing different things.

"His number is saved so I'm sure he'll be calling you at least once in the next few hours. The password is the same as your old one." Natalie smiled at Merlin, a small smile gracing her lips. "How you feeling, after ya know?" Merlin didn't want to directly address is because he didn't know how much of a touchy subject it was for Natalie still. Answer; all of it was a touchy subject.

Natalie took a deep breathe, taking a look at the picture Eggsy had put as her new lock screen. It was one of her, Eggsy, JB and Marty all cuddled together, with smiles all round. Well if dogs could smile they would be smiling in this picture. It was one of Natalie's favourite pictures they ever took. Her very own little family with the man she loves.
