Within minutes the police, emergency rescue, Captain Ross and Eames were on the scene. Knight was administering CPR when emergency rescue arrived on the scene. They had to forcefully pull her off of Goren so they could begin their assessment. She was covered in his blood. Tears streaming down her face.

"We got a single gun shot wound to the lower right chest wall, appears to be through and through. The lung is collapsed. No pulse- continuing CPR," bellowed rescue worker #1.

"I got an 18gauge IV started in his left hand with Normal saline wide open," yelled rescue worker #2.

One of the officers tried to pull Knight aside to ask her what happen.

"No, leave me alone! Let me go! I am not leaving him!" she screamed as she fought with the officer. Eames went to her side and put her arm around her as they watched the team continue to work on Goren.

"Ok, I gave him a shot of epi, charging, clear!" They shocked Goren and his whole body jumped with the jolt to his heart. "Ok, we got a pulse let's move him!"

"Come on Autumn I will drive you to the hospital," said Eames. As she tried to hold herself together walking through all the blood on the ground that belonged to her partner.

"Excuse me, we need to know what happened?" said the officer as they started to walk away.

Knight turned around, her eyes so swollen with tears, "John Thomas shot Bobby, the gun is right there on the floor. He ran down those stairs, he also attacked me two weeks ago. Lock that bastard up and throw away the key." Then she turned and left with Eames. "This is all my fault."

Eames, Knight and Ross went to the hospital. The ER doctors were trying to stabilize Goren before bringing him to surgery. They watched helplessly as people ran in and out of the double doors. Ross was on and off the phones with police officers. The chief of D's showed up and waited with the rest of them. One of the nurses offered Knight a change of clothes, Knight refused. Logan arrived- he was out searching for John Thomas. There had been no luck so far.

"How is Goren, Captain?" asked Logan with concern in his eyes.

"We still are waiting to hear. They had to shock him on the scene. He lost a lot of blood. Autumn's got her memory back, but I think she is in shock now," said Ross. He looked over at Autumn sitting in silence, staring at the wall.

Logan walked over to Autumn and sat down beside her, he didn't say a word. She placed her head on his shoulder and began to cry. He put his arm around her and they sat in silence.

"Hang the other Unit of O neg," said the Doctor. "Do you have the chest tube in?"

"Yes, its drained 500cc of blood, but the lung is reinflated," said the intern.

"Ok let's clamp this bleeder and get him up to surgery," said the Doctor. "No cop is going to die on my shift."

They wheeled Goren to the elevators up to surgery. He was still unconscious and still bleeding. The doctor walked out to the waiting room of cops waiting to hear about Goren. Everyone jumped to their feet when he walked out. The Doctor was covered in blood, Goren's blood.

"Is Detective's Goren's family here?" he asked.

"We are his family," replied Ross. "How is he doing?"

"He has lost a lot of blood, we put in a chest tube to reinflate the lung, but he is in surgery now to repair the damage done by the bullet. The nurse can show you where to wait," explained the doctor. The doctor began to turn around and return to the ER. But Autumn touched his arm.

"How much blood has he received?" she asked. Her face was pale and her eyes blood shot. He could tell she had been crying, a lot.

"We have given 6 Units of O neg," he replied.

"Any platelets?" she asked.

He looked at her with a strange look.

"I was a medic in the army." She figured he wondered why she was asking these questions. Everyone was waiting for the doctor's answer.

"Uh, no we haven't," he said, as he folded his arms across his chest.

"No need to get defensive, I was just concerned if you considered Thrombocytopenia. I mean after getting that much blood in such a short period of time and then going to surgery. His platelets might be low and we do want him to be able to have some clotting ability after surgery and don't want him bleeding out. But you're the doctor; you know what you're doing. I will follow the nurse to the surgery waiting room," Autumn finished. She turned around and walked away.

The doctor walked to the ER desk and called the blood bank, "Send two units of platelets to surgery room 3 STAT." He looked back at Autumn but she was already at the elevators heading up to surgery waiting room.

Before going up to surgery waiting Eames approached Logan .

"Can I talk to you a moment?" Eames looked concerned. "Was something going on between Goren and Knight that I wasn't aware of?"

As far as Logan knew he and Goren were only trying to help Knight. They suspected an abusive boyfriend and that was all. "No, nothing that I know of. We suspected this boyfriend of hers as being abusive, we reached out and offered assistance, that's all," explained Logan , as he walked to the elevators.

Eames then understood, knowing of Goren's abusive childhood, he would be one to reach out and help someone who was being abused. She also understood why Autumn felt responsible. When she arrived upstairs she brought Autumn and her mother some coffee. Then she sat with them and waited for news. After about 2 hours, Ross walked up and offered to have one of the officers drive Mrs. Knight to a hotel, Mr. Knight had already flown back home a week ago, but she didn't want to leave her daughter.

"Its ok mom, go and rest, I will be ok. I will call you as soon as we hear something." She stood up and hugged her mother. The blood on her clothes had already dried. Her mother cupped her face and kissed her on the forehead. Then she left with the officer. Only Ross, Logan , Eames, and Autumn were left.

After a while Ross, Logan and Eames fell asleep on the chairs and sofas in the waiting room, but Autumn remained awake. Ross' phone rang, it woke everyone up.

"Ross...yeah... great...thanks." He hung up his phone. "They have Thomas in custody. They found him hanging out at an old girlfriend's house. What time is it?"

"It's 3am," said Autumn. "They should have told us something by now. It can't be going well. I was a medic; I know it's not going well."

They all sat and just looked at her; they were worried about Goren but were starting to worry about her emotional state as well. Just then the doctor walked out the door. They all stood up.

"He made it through surgery. I don't know how but he did. The bullet went through his aorta, and he lost a lot of blood, but he is a strong guy with the will to live. If he makes it through the night he will be fine. But the way he made it through surgery I have no doubt," smiled the surgeon.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks doctor, you have made us all happy," smiled Ross.

"He is a little delirious and combative. Here we are in the middle of winter and he keeps fighting saying it's Autumn," laughed the surgeon.

Everyone looked at Autumn and she smiled. "Maybe I should see him doctor," said Autumn.

"Maybe tomorrow," said the surgeon. We need him to calm down.

"You see, I am Autumn. Maybe I can calm him down," she smiled.

"Well come with me," he said and brought her to the ICU.

Goren was thrashing around and the nurses were trying to calm him down.

"Because of the anesthesia we don't want to give him anything else. Maybe you could just sit with him awhile," the surgeon suggested.

Autumn walked over to the bedside and sat in the chair. She reached for Bobby's hand and kissed it. He instantly calmed down and tried to open his eyes.

"Shhhh, don't move, just close your eyes and rest. I 'm here," she said in a calm soothing voice.

"Autumn," he barely got out.

"Yes, now just rest, you're going to be fine. You have to get better you owe me for some new clothes. You can take me shopping for a new sweater, new shirt, new pants, and maybe if your really lucky a silk black teddy," she whispered in his ear.

Bobby allowed himself to relax and had a smile on his face and a month later he took Autumn shopping and she got her silk black teddy, she also got one in red too.

The End?
