" Zack!" Yelled a female voice coming from the bathroom. Zack woke up from his sleep. He got out of bed walking to the bathroom across from him. His wife stood there holding a pregnancy test. She had one hand over her stomach." Rosie what's wrong?" He asked worriedly. She handed him the test. He looked at it and grinned. " I'm pregnant." He hugged her. " oh honey!" He cried. She let go of him. " you aren't angry?" She asked. He shook his head. " no I'm so happy for you." He rubbed her back gently.
You know I don't get to talk much about my co-worker's personal lives. If I remember correctly Zack had never married until recent of last year. He got married to a sweet person by the name of Rosie. She is the sweetest gal you will ever meet. I tell ya, it takes a lot to deal with a man like Zack. See he gets banged up more than the rest of us do. It's nice to see that a girl like her at least respects what he does.
Rosie kissed him softly. She stroked the scar on the left side of his face. " are you leaving me again?" she asked. Zack chuckles softly. " Rosie you know it's my job. Never a dull moment at least." He kissed her. " right well I'm off I shall see you later." Rosie watched him walk out the front door.
Tyne woke up again. She rolled over to find Fletch had gone to work early. She sighed to herself and got up only to have her head ring again. She gritted her teeth against the pain. She managed to walk into Taya's room to find her gone. Fletch must have taken her with him. She thought. She tugged on her coat and went to get the keys to her car when she heard her front door being kicked in. Tyne screamed loudly.
Fletch's phone went off madly in his pocket. He took it out. " hello?" He was met by Tyne's scream for help. He heard stuff breaking in the background. He hung up racing to his bike. " where are you going?" Asked Zack. " Tyne is in trouble she needs me." He muttered as he took off. The bike tires spat out grit and dust. Fletch got to Tyne's apartment to find the front door missing. He walked around the place to find furniture upturned, papers thrown everywhere. He also found signs of struggle and blood on the corner of the hallway. " Tyne!" He shouted. " Tyne you in here?" He didn't hear anything. He checked her bedroom to find the table knocked over and pieces of shredded clothes. His heart pounded harshly in his chest. " Tyne!" He shouted raising his voice. " fletch?" Came a weak response. He pushed the table off of Tyne. She was bleeding from her stomach gripping the carpet. He knelt down. He began putting pressure to her wound. " hang...hang...hang in there I'm going to get help." He pulled out his phone and dialed the ambulance.
I felt my body grow cold with every passing second. I kept a firm grip on his hand.
" your going to be okay." He promised his voice shaking. The EMTs came in taking her away. Fletch followed them on his bike. He was struggling trying not to cry. He had to be strong for her, for Taya. They got there and unloaded her. Fletch tried to keep up with them. He was forced to wait for her. His heart beated just like the clock did. His breathe couldn't keep a steady rythmn at all. He was tense. " fletch?" Came a voice. Fletch stood up. " Tyne is going to be fine apart from needing stitches and a chance to rest." Fletch let out a sigh of relief. " is she awake enough so I can see her?" he asked. The nurse nodded. " of course." He stepped aside so Fletch could get to her. Tyne was laying on the bed with her hands folded over her chest. Her gaze was on the ceiling. He knocked on the door gently with two of his knuckles. Her gaze fell on him. " Hey." he whispered. She gave him a weak smile. " hey." He pulled up a chair and sat by her. " what happened to you?" he asked. Tyne gulped thinking for a moment. " I was trying to get my stuff together for work when some guy broke in. I tried to confront him to get him out. He snapped and stabbed me in the stomach." Fletch squeezed her hand gently. He placed it on the left side of his face. " I have you now don't you worry." he promised. " Fletch I think that person was after Taya. We have to protect her." Fletch sighed. " Tyne, we have to worry about your safety as well." Tyne nodded. " I know but we have to keep her safe too." Fletch nods in understanding. " if that is your wish then I'll make sure to never let her leave my sight." Tyne grinned again. " atta boy." she smirked. Fletch glared at her then chuckled.
Tyne fell asleep. Fletch had his head laying by her side. He heard a knock on the door. He raised his head to see Zack with Taya laying on his back. " is she okay?" he asked. Fletch nodded. " yea just had a confrontation in her apartment is all. she is going to be okay just as long as she rest." Zack smiled. " that's good. I know she's a fighter just like her father."
Remember when I said I don't get to talk about my co-worker's personal lives as often? Well same goes for me. I don't normally bring up the subject as often. My father was a guy that I don't normally like to talk about. I'm not going to say he was good or bad. He just had his days to where he didn't know his own identity. I felt distant from this guy. He didn't cry not even a tear when I ran from home.
Tyne woke up again this time surronded by Zack, Fletch, and Taya. " oh hi sleeping beauty." teased Zack. Tyne smirked at him. Taya hugged Tyne very tightly. " it's alright baby girl I'm going to be okay." murmured Tyne. " way to go Taya you made the most bad ass chugineer we have and turned her into a motherly, lovey-dovey, kitten." chuckled Zack. Taya looks to Zack and smiles at him. " hey I'm still my badass self I just choose to keep myself under control." retorted Tyne. Zack chuckled again and then rolled his eyes. " yea sure whatever you say Tyne." Fletch helped Tyne up to her feet. She wobbled a little bit feeling the blood rush to her legs. Her muscles woke up buzzing with the newfound energy. " come on let's get you home." murmured Fletch. He carried Taya while allowing Tyne to lean on him.
They got home to the house being cleaned. " I had a maid come through and clean your house stem to stern." murmured Fletch. Tyne was both shocked and impressed at the same time. " oh alright." Fletch sat Taya down on the recliner. She smiled at him touching his face. A deep purr welled up from his chest. Tyne shook her head and put her hands on her hips. " yea lovey-dovey kitten my ass." she teased. Fletch looked up and shot her a look. She pretended to be hurt. " what are you going to do about?" she challenged. Fletch smirked and got up. He roared running to her. Tyne screamed running away from him. " Fletcher!" she yelped. He hugged tackled her to the bed. He stood over her. " this." he leaned down and kissed her. Tyne's eyes widened. She gave him a playful swat across the face. " yutz!" she shouted hiding under the covers chuckling. Fletch thought for a moment. He grabbed the covers letting one go and dutch ovened her. She began to scream under the cover. " Fletcher that's gross! let me out!" she yelled. He smiled pulling the covers off of her. She glared at him, cheeks red from laughing too hard. She gave him another playful swat missing. " I'm going to get back at you for that!" she spat. He kissed her again. She returned it gently holding him close. She fell with him onto the sheets. Her legs going around his waist. His hands going through her hair deepening further into the kiss. She pulls away looking at him eyeing his features. He sits back up again pulling her into his lap. " I love you." he murmurs. Tyne smiled gazing up at him. " I love you too."
