I love Lewis and was gutted when it was. I apologies for any spelling and grammar mistakes that I haven't picked up on. I would be grateful if you could point any of these out to me and of any constructive criticism you would like to give.

Laura was at the hospital when they brought James in; she'd been filled in on events by Innocent. She caught Robbie's arm

"Come on you need to get checked out first"
"Ah leave me alone woman I'm fine"
"You ran into a burning building, you probably have smoke inhalation and cuts from broken glass. James will be fine, if you let me check you over I promise I'll be quick then you can come back."

"Fine"

Laura led Robbie to a side room and checked him over

"You're lucky you don't need stiches for these cuts"

"Funny I'd feel lucky if I hadn't have got the cuts at all"

"Sorry Robbie but you shouldn't have gone in there at all, you could have been killed, what were you thinking?"

"I was thinking of saving my sergeant" He started to shake

"Hey, it's okay, he's fine just a bit of smoke inhalation and he was drugged, that's all"

"I thought he was dead, he was lying there on the bed and I thought he was dead, I thought I would never get to talk to him again, I thought I'd driven him into her arms by shouting at him just because he lied to me, because of my bloody ego."
"No, you didn't drive him to this, he was wrong to lie to you, it could have damaged the investigation but his motives were understandable but Zoe would have got him there in the end if she wanted him there whether you had fallen out or not." She hugged him tight, trying to quieten his sobs. "It's alright."

"I know it's probably the shock or relief or something, I know he'll be alright, but I'm not leaving until I've seen it with my own eyes."

"Okay, but you know he was drugged, he won't be awake for a while, why don't we go and get something to eat?"
"I don't know, I don't want him to be alone"
"We can go to the hospital canteen, that way if there is any change we can come back."
"Okay"
