Ok, you've got twenty drabbles coming up, as part of Castleland's 20in20 challenge. The first ten are to prompts, then five had to be on one episode (I chose Countdown), then the last five are all my own 're all a bit Caskett, and hope you enjoy them all!
Prompt: Partners
They've only known each other a year, and she doesn't like to admit it to herself, but she needs him with her, now. She's not ready when he's shot in the line of duty; she's not ready to pace up and down the waiting room of a hospital, fear coursing through her veins. And she's not ready to see him, laid before her in the hospital bed, looking so grey, so broken. Without even having a chance to think, she starts crying.
"Why are you crying?" he whispers, even his voice sounds almost ruined.
"You're my partner…" is all she can manage.
