Summary:
"Bobby...you are such a stubborn jerk."
"Detective Eames?" the blonde detective halted in her pacing and turned to the doctor who had called her name.
"I'm here." she stated and quickly made her way over to him. "What's the news?"
"He's out of surgery, and seems to be on the road to recovery." came his steady answer, offering the troubled woman in front of him a gentle smile.
"Can I-""Yes, you can see him." he answered even before she could get the question out. "Nurse Sanders will take you to his room." nodding to the said nurse before walking off. The young nurse approached and offered the detective a smile, much like the doctor had.
"Just follow me." turning, she started off, Eames at her heels. "He may not be very talkative. The pain killers we gave him tend to cause drowsiness." she explained and opened the door, allowing Eames to step through into her partner's room, before she left the two alone.
Stepping towards the bed, her hazel gaze swept over her partner, who appeared to be sleeping. He had been trying to talk down a suspect, who he had a sort of soft spot for, since the kid had reminded her partner so much of himself when he was young. The kid was smart though, and used this to his advantage, tricking Goren into thinking he was stepping down before he shot him in the gut.
Alex, who had been watching the whole thing, had shot and killed the kid after he shot her partner. None of this would have happened if he had just listened to her, since she had seen right through the kid.
"Bobby...you are such a stubborn jerk." she mumbled to herself before falling silent.
To this, the detective who was pretending to sleep replied,
"But at least I'm your stubborn jerk."
