Brant Rhaegan

"Are you sure you're be okay?"

"Yeah! You know I'm alive, and thanks to you for not leaving me there" Ryan wince while lying on the hospital bed. He got two wounds of bullet right on his shoulder and one in his left stomach while I got one in my right arm and a scratch wound on my right shoulder.

"You know I will never do that."

"Yes.. thanks for that but enough for take another bullet to save my ass, you idiot" Ryan sighed.

"It's just a scratch, no need to be worry."

"Stratch you idiot, if you didn't move that fast, it would be stuck on your chest dumbass!"

"Hey! Cranky little boy! I'm alive and you too.. no need grumpy all the time."

"Ryan!!!!" We both crane our head while the door swing open and shows Reina, Ryan's girlfriend standing there.

"Hey baby." He try to get up from bed while she come closer and hug him.

"Please stop with your mission or death mission or whatever I don't care.. just quit.. I don't wanna see you lying on this bed again, no more!" She's crying and hugging Ryan.

"Hey.. I'm alright... there's another idiot take another bullet for me again."

"Hey! I save your life grumpy boy!" I said and try to get up from the couch.

"Thank you Brant.." Reina look at me and I just nodded.

"Okay grumpy boy, I think someone has come and help me to take care of you. Now I'll excuse myself."

"Hey! You're not stay here?" Of course not... I hate hospital...

"It's just a little bullet and scratch on the shoulder. No need to be worry grandma." I made my way to the door.

"Brant!" he stop me before I walk away.

"Thank you for saving my life.. again."

"I'm glad you did it for my crazy boyfriend." Reina said.

I just smile and nodded. I hold my arms, It's still hurt but I can handle it, I just need more painkillers and heading back home. I took a cab and made my way to go home.

The memory has flashback after I take her to the mansion, Ryan asked me to help him. There's another case we should accomplish. There was an illegal weapon dispatch on the port. I made my way right to Ryan's house and we both prepared our gun and also strategy and go to the port within another team. I've been delegation to be a private investigator and execution for an illegal act. We know our consequences and our duty as Secret Agent for NSA ( National Security Agent). We usually handle it very well but there was a bit different tonight. We shouldn't take a new member and let them be part of our team, and everything goes really fast, one of our team release his bullets too fast while the transaction almost done and without any concern and consideration they've get out from their place and start shooting. There was a mess shooting and without even notice Ryan help one of our member that got shoot while the other smuggler pointing his gun to him. I just run in between and that's all just happened. I take my gun and shoot him right on his chest. I know I should arrest the smuggler alive so we will get another information about the others but I won't take any risk for my team's life. I run to Ryan and see him got shoot on his shoulder and his stomatch. The other team also get shoot and I call the ambulance and take them to the hospital. I've already got bandage on my arms and also my shoulder while waiting Ryan and the other team in hospital... I just need a rest. I texted my uncle that I can't go to mansion today cause need to take care another important things.

The taxi has just arrive at my apartment and I took a few dollar and paid the fare. I walk in carefully get into my apartment. I took off my jacket and throw my Desset Eagle on it. It's almost morning at 6am, but I'm not yet sleeping for two days. Okay.. I know my body has just gave up with me. Navy come closer while I just lying on my bed.

"Damn it!" I curse my self while the wounds strike the bed surface and damn it hurts. I think the painkiller has just out of the dose. I start to doze off and sleep.

Hailey Jordan

My dad has just leaving off to Canada for his business and here I am alone at the mansion. I wanna asked Brant to get lunch with me, I wanna say thank you for yesterday.

I use my ripped jeans and white tee and make my hair into ponytail and brush a bit make up on my face. I get downstairs happily, maybe because I get a day off today cause Jay already knew what happened yesterday and he just gave me one day off or maybe because I will meet Brant again and ask him to have lunch with me? Nahh! I think both of it.

I make my way downstairs and smile has just disappear while I see Dylan was standing there. Where's him? Does he should came up today?

"Morning Hailey" Dylan smile to me.

"Morning Dylan.. are you here? I meant Brant?" I asked reluctantly.

"He's absent today.. so here I am" he smile.

Absent?

"Why?" that just came out without even I can notice.

"Need to held another important things."

"Do you know where he is? I meant his apartment or house?"

"Of course I know, why?"

"Just... just.. just asking" I smile awkwardly.

"Oh.. why don't you call him?" I smile and take my phone. I tried to call him and sit on the couch.

One ring... two ring.. come on answer the phone...

"Hey idiot! Are you forget your phone again? You called me grandma while you're the one that always leaving your phone with me!" It's not him, but he sounds familiar.

"Hi... It's me Hailey.. can I talk to Brant?" I look at Dylan while he still concern listening beside me.

"Oh.. I thought you're him.. He just get back from hospital-"

"What?! Hospital?" I scream out loud. Even he doesn't yet finish his statement.

"Woo woo woo.. easy... He doesn't stay in hospital while he should but he won't and he just took me to the hospital and he get back to his apartment"

"Okay.. Thanks" I ended up the call and look Dylan in horror.

"Can you take me to his apartment?" I look at Dylan.
