Tommy and Eva ran into Annie direction. Eva was on the floor near her, Tommy was starting to run after them. "McConnell, please stop. Let them go." A voice that sounded like almost a whisper begged.

His feet stopped, he was pissed but Annie was first, they might gone away, but next time, things would be different. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't heard Eva shouting.

"Tommy!" Eva kicked his feet.

Tommy got out of his trance. "What?"

"Help me, I can't stand up her."

Tommy looked at Annie, she didn't look good, all the colour from her face was almost gone, and she looked like she was going to pass out.

He kneeled next to her. "Can you walk?"

Annie looked at Tommy's eyes, was that concerned she was seeing, she really was worst than she thought. "I think I can." She tried, getting free from Eva chest, she was almost up, when her knees didn't take anymore and gave up, all her strengths were gone, even she thinking she still had something, because she always had a little more, when she thought she didn't have nothing.

Tommy caught her before she fell on the floor. He didn't ask, he picked her on bridal style carry, she had one hand on her lap, and the other on his chest just like her head was. He looked down at her, she was really small, looking like a little child. When she looked at him, he knew she didn't like the idea of been carrying and the worst thing, he had to be the one doing.

He didn't know what made him do it, but he did, with a smooth voice he said near her ear. "It's already. You are safe now, we all are. You can rest." His voice was so calm and peaceful, Eva was amazed with that, she never had seen Tommy speak with anyone like that.

Annie locked eyes with him, she knew he was right, but she needed to be sure they would be fine, she was about to speak. "Shiuu, be steal, we will be fine, don't worry. Rest, we will need you later. You have a lot to explain." He made a sure to speak slowly and calmly. Finally he felt her body relax against his, her head made more pressure against his chest and she closed her eyes. He thought he heard a Thank you, but when he looked down, she looked so peaceful and sleeping deeply.

Eva made sure to be on guard, in case something more happened, but they arrived safely at the hotel. She couldn't shake so many things from her head, but one good thing was seeing Tommy carrying Annie, she looked tired but so peaceful, it was like if Tommy made her felt safe without she know. Even he, his embrace was a protective one, he could never admitted, but he felt a connection with her since the first day at the Hospital. The look on his face during their walk when he looked at her was of concerned and contemplation, he admired her that was a fact.

Eva didn't know why but after she had seen their interaction on the plane, she was secretly cheering for them to be together, she knew Annie had a lot of skeletons on her wardrobe but so had Tommy and for some reason when they were near each other, it was hilarious to see them fighting, because they questioning and challenging themselves and there was a sparkle.

She was sure she had seen it and for the first time since Sienna death, Tommy had been gentle and concerned about another person, of course he cared a lot about their team, but Annie was different, she made him showing some emotions he always tried to hide and that was a good thing. Annie made him more human and more opened, even if it was through arguing techniques, it was well seen. Tommy had been changing since Annie's arrival.

It was really late, but both agreed it was best have some rest and in the morning leaving, to another place, to Holland. They needed to speak with the Major, but now Annie needed to rest and so needed them.

Tommy took the first watch, Eva slept in the same bed as Annie, she looked so peaceful, Eva looked for injuries but didn't see nothing serious, just bruises and some cuts. She didn't have the courage to wake Annie to clean it, in the morning it could be done.

"Eva" She heard very far away a voice calling her name and then she felt something and woke up. She found Tommy kneeled next to her side of the bed, he looked so tired, then she looked at the clock was almost 5 a.m. she was supposed to only rest one hour! Damn Tommy, he promised he would waken up her… "You said you would awake me!"

Tommy looked at the floor. "You were tired Eva, we both are, and I can take better the lost of sleep than you."

"It's not fair, you need to rest to! Don't argue with me, you lay down here next to Annie and I will take the watch." She was began to stand up when she saw Tommy freezing on the same spot.

"What?"

"I can take my bed Eva."

Eva smiled, so he was afraid of sleeping next to Annie, so she was right, he did feel something for her and last night something changed. "Don't tell me you are afraid of sharing a bed with a woman?"

Tommy gave her a look. "You know we had share a bed before, so you know I don't have problems with that."

"So what's the matter?"

"She moves a lot in her sleep, I may hurt her." Tommy was serious, at those hours he had been on guard, she moved a lot and Eva wasn't a moving person, but he was, it was most likely he crushed her during his sleep without feeling.

"Tommy she will be fine! Just move your ass there and sleep! She won't move to your side, so you can relax, and I checked her body quickly, I only saw bruises but nothing to serious. So just relax, ok?"

He took him a moment to decided, why was he carrying about her well-being, she hurt him twice without an apologize, she was irritating, but she would have given her life for them to save them, tonight, and that thought didn't get out from his mind. What scared him wasn't so much hurting her during sleeping, was to share a bed with her.

The idea of been at the same bed was bothering him without he understand why, it was just laying down, but even that… What the hell was wrong with him, seen her that intimately close to that Mike Jones in a sexual way and the looks, the conversations he gave her, made him feel mad, he wanted him away from her and wanting dead.

The other Jones, there was story been them, it could have being seen a mile away, why was he affected by that, he didn't like the way they looked at each other. Why did he care? She didn't mean nothing to him, or did she? He really needed to sleep. "Fine, I will, but if you feel or hear even a fly, you wake me!"

Eva looked him, they both were thinking that the Jones might came after them, but Mike had a bullet and a pretty nasty wound, so probably they ran off, but you never know. "Deal. Now sleep."

Tommy laid down next to Annie, he was lay aside, so he could see her face and her breathing was so slow and peaceful, she was really resting, he couldn't deny, she was one of the most beautiful women he had ever seen, and her personality, well she was the whole package, beauty, intelligence, determined, impulsive, stubborn, fearless and she didn't have afraid of risking, at some point he could see what Major said about they be similar, but they were to broken and they couldn't even stand each other, they have different paths and goals and this was a temporary situation, she would be leaving soon to her team. He knew that be attached to people only have made him vulnerable and losing them hurt two times more than don't get them in. And was with those thoughts and looking at Annie, that Tommy fell on sleep.
