All Right Now
Summary: FlackStella. One Shot. AU. Set during the Season 2 episode 'All Access'. Stella's POV.
I've always been a die hard MacStella fan from the first time I watched CSI NY but I've never felt the desire to write for them like I have with FS. I don't know if I'll ever write for them again but you never know!
Please review! Love, Vikki xXx.
Never in my life, nor in my career as a forensic scientist and crime scene investigator, have I ever felt this weak; this vulnerable. I can't control the shaking in my hand, I can't even think about holding a gun ever again. Not after Frankie. Oh God, Frankie.
My mind transports me back in time; back to when he was nothing more and nothing less than my lover. I feel my body tense as I remember everything that has happened in the last twenty four hours and what I have done.
I killed the man I love.
Self defence, extreme provocation - call it what you will but I still feel that I have become one of the people that I encounter on a near day to day basis; a murderer.
Mac tells me I'm not to blame, Danny sympathises but I can't forget what happened. Will I ever?
I raise a hand to my face, I feel as battered and bruised as I look.
I turn sharply as someone enters my hospital room. I expect it to be Mac, but it's not. Don Flack smiles at me uncertainly as he walks towards me. He's been a rock all through this; a real angel. I smile back at him weakly. He takes me in his arms and presses the softest of kisses to my cheek. It takes me by surprise, although I know it should not. Why was I never strong enough to tell Frankie? Why did it have to end up like this?
I rest my head against Flack's chest as he holds me close. Maybe it'll be all right now.
