" I'm good all by myself… but baby you, you make me better...beside every great man, you can find a woman like a soldier holdin' him down." -Fabolous
John swiftly moved down the alley as he drew the last two hit men away, so that Shaw could escape with the pregnant woman.
As John rounded the corner he came to a dead end, he closed his eyes and cursed under his breath. He turned around to face the ally entrance and prepared to fire his last bullet; even if he managed to take one down the other one would surly kill him.
As soon as one of the men rounded the corner John took his shot and dropped the man. The other one was smart enough to pull back around the corner. John lowered his gun, he was out of bullets.
Once the other man realized that same fact he came around the corner but before the hit man could pull the trigger, two gun shots echoed through the alley and John watched as the man hit the ground clutching his leg.
Before the hit man could reach for his gun again, John watched as Joss came from around the corner and pistol whipped the man across the face.
John watched as she put her hands on her hips and glared at him as he walked over to her. He smiled as soon as he was close enough he kissed her on the cheek and thanked her for saving his ass, before he took off down the street as the police arrived.
He couldn't stop the grin on his face; Joss certainly was his better half. It would never cease to amaze him how much she changed him for the better. He may be good at what he does but having Joss to back him up only made him better.
