Chapter 2

"She's bleeding out, we need to stop the blood flow" the paramedics were applying pressure to Gail's neck as the ambulance sped through the streets of Toronto. Gail's uniform and hands were covered in blood, she lay there trance like unable to move, her only thoughts were of Holly, how much she had to say to her, how much she wanted her.

Holly was ushered out of the ambulance, the paramedics ran through the doors of the hospital and Gail was taken straight to the operation room.

Holly was pacing up and down the waiting room, she didn't want to think the worst, she had to think positive, but how could she? Gail saved her life and was on the brink of death, as she, Holly stood here unharmed. 'how could I be so stupid?! I should have done something! I am a coward!' Holly thought to herself. The brunette had gone over the event numerous times in her head and to the detectives. It was a simple kill or be killed situation and Gail had done her duty to protect and serve.

Oliver entered the waiting room as Holly was about to torture herself more for being so helpless, "Hey darlin' how are you holding up?" she gave a small smile, but Oliver wasn't fooled so easily he could see the pain and worry in her eyes, anyone could. "Sweetheart she's a fighter, she's also a pain in the ass but she's our pain in the ass!" Holly chuckled, Oliver fist pumped in victory of making the doctor laugh. The doctor entered the waiting room,

"Hello, I am Gail's surgeon and I would just like to say that the surgery was a success, but we will have to keep an eye on her, the next 48 hours are crucial. She will be in critical care until we are certain her health is stable." Holly zoned out, 'Gail was alive, her Gail, she was going to see her beautiful pale face and soon she was going to be able to tell her, tell her she loved her, this time without any life threatening injuries getting in the way' she finally let the tears fall, she smiled and Oliver pulled her into a fatherly hug "I told you darlin,' she's a fighter" Oliver whispered.

Dr Stewart entered Gail's room, what she saw broke her heart, tubes were covering the blonde, machines were beeping, and Gail...oh Gail was sleeping, looking as peaceful as anyone could with all the machines and tubes. Holly walked over to Gail and sat in the chair by her bed and held her hand, "you scared me you beautiful, sexy, smart pain in the ass" the brunette whispered, she kissed the officers knuckles.


Early next morning

"Holly?" the blonde looked around groggily before looking at Holly and she smiled at what she saw, Holly had fallen asleep still holding her hand, she was snoring softly, and her hair was across her face 'adorable' Gail thought to herself. Holly stirred, and realized the limp hand she was holding the night before was squeezing back.

"Gail?! Oh my god! Gail! You're awake! I LOVE YOU" she blurted out the last part before she could think. Gail stared at her, and Holly's eyes went wide with shock her big brown eyes reflected fear and love all in one.

"Calm down nerd, but I do recall you calling me beautiful, sexy and smart and nerds are always right so I have to agree with you... I love you too" Holly stared at her, the words felt so natural, those three little words that both of them were so afraid of saying, and here they were, saying I love you. Holly gave her signature crooked smile and responded with"Um I do recall calling you a pain in the ass as well" Gail laughed, before her look of joy turned to pain and Holly ran out to look for the doctor.
