Title: Seeing Red
Summary: Mac gets hit over the head. 2nd person. For Lisa.
Your head. Oh your head hurts.
Why?
You see red.
Blurry red on your hand.
What?
Head.
Red.
Focus.
Remember.
Suspect. And there was a bat.
Oh god your head. Your head feels like.
Like you got hit over the head.
Man your head is pounding, but you look at the red on your hand again. Blood.
In the distance there's, "Mac!"
You try to form words and manage to softly call out, "Over here."
Then there are feet coming towards you.
You make out her silhouette as the world starts coming back into focus.
She's kneeling down by you and her hand goes to the side of your head.
"Oh man that must hurt."
You start to laugh, but somehow the attempt gets fumbled into a bit of a cough.
"No kidding."
"What did he have?"
"Bat."
"Ahh... yeah I think you're in for some stitches."
God. No. Not the hospital. "No, no I'll be alright."
She raises her eyebrow at you. "You were unconscious for at least five minutes. There's no talking your way out of this one."
Oy. "No really, I'm fine," you say as you try to sit up, before falling back as the world starts to spin again.
"Whoah there buddy." She laughs. "Just sit tight, I can hear the ambulance."
You sigh. "I really am fine, now that you're here."
She smiles and rolls her eyes. Her hand finds yours. "Tell you what, I'll ride in the ambulance with you, okay?"
She squeezes your hand.
"Okay."
