AN: So…this is my first Sanctuary fic ever. I've watched it since the beginning (webisodes included) and have been addicted. I'm actually a twilight writer, but I can't think of anything for my story and a very wise friend once said that when writer's block hits, write something else.
Disclaimer: I own nothing…at all.
So here it goes…
Ugh it's dark.
Wait why can't I feel anything?
Is anyone out there...Magnus?
I try to open my eyes but nothing happens, almost like my body is fighting my every wish. I try to move my hands, but the same. I focus in on my surroundings and hear beeping.
Beep…beep…beep…beep
A hospital? Why would I be in a hospital? Usually Magnus would just fix me right up. Something had to have happened; I need to wake up like NOW! I open my eyes and groan.
"Will?" Magnus says worriedly.
"Magnus…what happened?" I croaked out, while she gets me some water.
Magnus comes back over to me and gives me the water. She grabs my hand and rubs circles on it. "You don't remember?" I shake my head. "We were chasing an abnormal who got out of containment. You were really close to catching it, but it made an unsuspecting move and went into the street." She paused catching her breath, almost as though reliving the moment. "You got hit by a car going 50 mph. I knew I wouldn't have been able to fix you up myself, so I called for an ambulance." She drops my hand and walks to the window looking out on the world.
It's amazing how certain gestures give away so many emotions. The psychologist in me sees these gestures as coping mechanisms, but I know Magnus, there's more to it. "Magnus…" I call to her with no luck. "Helen," she looks "what happened?"
She sighs. "You died Will. You died 2 times on that table because of something that I couldn't handle. Ever since…" she pauses and back over to me. "Ever since Ashley's death, I've been dealing with situations in very much unorthodox manners. I knew when the abnormal got out, that there would be no way to catch it, but I couldn't just let it go. Will, you died because of me." She says crying silently to herself.
I grab her hand. "Helen, I'm not dead. On the contrary I am much more alive then I have ever been just being with you…at the sanctuary" nice save will, just tell her that you love her why don't you? "Even though there has been times when it's been tough, you've been there for me. You were there for me when I was a kid, and you will continue to be there for me Helen, it's because of you that I wake up every morning. Because you exist that I exist. You have saved me in so many ways that I will never be able to hold anything against you. We have both been plagued by loss, and we deal in our own way, which is together. Don't close me out now. You need me, just like I need you." I take a pause in my speech to look at her. She has visibly calmed and looks stunned. Now would be the time to tell her Will. Just tell her the three little words that you've wanted to tell her for months now.
"Will what are you…"She starts.
"I'm not finished yet Helen. Please let me say what I need to before I lose my nerve." She nods. "When the nubbins came to the Sanctuary, that night I went to your office to tell you something very important, but I didn't because then you would categorize it as the nubbin influence. A lot of things have happened in my life to make love seem unbelievable to me, much like a fairy tale. I would have never guessed that when you saved my life, it would be the spark of the beginning of the rest of my life. A life that I want with you, Helen." I pick up her hand and give it a chastise kiss. "Helen, I love you."
A/N: And there it is. I had a friend read it and we both agreed that it cant be a one shot, but its not going to be a full story. Drop a review and let me know you think.
