I'll be there for you

That's what friends are for

"Please, Johnny", I begged.

"I don't have detergent", Johnny was walking over piles of his shirts trying to find a clean one.

"You do"

"No, you have a detergent. With strawberry freshness. Do you really want your man to smell like Katy Perry",  he said putting on his cap.

"If that means that his clothes will be clean.. Than yes", I exclaimed putting on my leather jacket. "Come on, Johnny.... Not even my clothes are scattered like that. I forgot how carpet in our room looks like. Please, I am bringing guns to cleaning after that I am gonna buy us pizza... Please", I threw my arms around him.

"Don't expect me to clean with that pink shit. I am gonna do it my way. Jakes is out, he doesn't need to know that I borrowed his liquor" , he finally smiled kissing my forehead.

"Get a room!", I heard Briggs' voice at our door

"Very funny, Paul.  Did you put guns in my car?" , I asked putting on my dark sandals.

"Everything for a lady. Although this doesn't smell as a room where lady lives...", he and Johnny chuckled.

"And now you're even funnier" , I grinned and left to the car.

Soon I was back in car with two boxes. In one were our back up guns finally clean and other was the pizza box. Just when I started the car, my phone rang. 

"I keep my promises, John. Our barely used firearms are clean and the pizza is bought. Am I perfect or what?" , smiled to myself tapping on the wheel with free hand.

"All of my favorite things, I can't wait.  Anyways, something happened, so we are not eating pizza that fast", I hear Johnny's voice.

"What happened?", I asked a little worried. Something serious If he is not enthusiastic about the food.

"Mike was stabbed. By the Jangles. Can you stop to the Hospital?", his voice quivered and I put on the brakes the hardest I could. 

"Oh, shit. I am on my way. Is he... Is he alright now?" , I asked while rapidly turning around the corner. The nearest way to the Mike's Hospital. Why not use it.

"Yeah, he is resting... Phoebe, can I ask you something? Can you stop to the nearest toy shop and buy a teddy bear for Mikey?", Johnny asked me with his voice getting back to optimistic tone. It took me a few seconds to realize that this Johnny's idea actually was great. Mike's first undercover situation. Teddy bears. I smiled feeling the tear in my eye. It was so long ago...

"Okay, I'll be there in 5 minutes. With teddy. Love you, bye", I smiled and threw phone on the back seat. Toy shop, then hospital. Everything in 5 minutes. That's what I was trained for. Okay, not exactly me. But my driving skills. 

4 minutes and 38 seconds later I was running  trough hospital's hall with teddy bear in one hand and bag and pizza box in another. "Miss, the children's ward is 4 floors down", said the nurse that passed me by. 

"Yeah, I don't need that. I am here for wounded fed? Mike Warren?", I said putting stuff on counter,

"I am not sure If...", she started.

Yeah, I am aware of that. With ray ban sunglasses on my eyes, long flowy orange-yellow-red dress and gifts in my hands I don't look exactly as a person that FBI could trust. So, I started to anxiously roam around my bag to find my badge and ID. Not a good moment to find bunch of make up, cigar box, bracelets, condoms and even candies. 

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. You are not sure If you can give that information to anyone. Well, guess what? You can tell me. No, I was wrong. You must tell me", I said roughly showing her my ID. "Phoebe Johnson, FBI"

"Sorry, Agent Johnson. Just turn to the left he is in room 5. The rest of your, am, people, is also there"

"Thank you, It was pleasure to meet you..Serena", I read out her name and ran. I forgot something. Rapidly, I came back to counter running. "I forgot this" , I smiled and grabbed teddy, box and my bag from it.

"Guys! How is he?", I collapsed on the chair next to Briggs. Johnny was standing next to the door and Charlie and Jakes running trough Hall with coffees in their hands. 

"He should wake up soon. Paige is watching him", Briggs said and Charlie clapped him on his shoulders. 

"It's not your fault, Paul. It's not even Bello's. Jangles done this", she said compassionate.

"Levi is a good guy, he is gonna be new in the morning", said Jakes and we laughed.

"Did you-?", Johnny turned to me.

"Yes. Go give it to him. It should at least make him smile", I stroked his cheek.

We were there the whole day, drinking coffee and eating pizza. For once my Greek orthodox views was not that funny for the rest of the crew... Jakes and Johnny went to buy balloons, and Paige... Well she was not going out of his room. It was morning and It was time to go home.

"Paige, go get some rest, please. We can make shifts...", I yawned leaving the hospital.

"There's a spare bed, I can sleep here", she laughed.

"You know what I am saying", I frowned.

"I will feel better If I stay here waiting for him to open his eyes. I'll call you. And, Johnny, I won't forget to tell him not to shoot teddy", she smiled weakly.

"Okay,but  If you need something...", I started and she hugged me.

"Don't worry mom", she laughed.

"Chuck is  mom. I am caring sister, not a mom, I told that Mike yesterday.", I joked.

It was same, but since yesterday, some things have changed.
