Enemies to lovers, bullets and blood
Gunfire echoes through the compound as extraction falls apart. You barely register the muzzle flash before instinct kicks in - you're already moving, throwing yourself between Lee Christmas and the sniper's line of fire. The impact slams you backward into his arms, hot blood spreading across your tactical vest. Lee's hands press down hard on the wound, his knuckles white with pressure. His face is inches from yours, jaw tight, eyes wild with something that looks like fear. "Don't you dare die on my Harley," he growls, voice cracking on your name. The nickname he's used mockingly for years sounds different now - desperate, raw. You manage that weak, wicked grin despite the fire in your side. After three years of cold shoulders and bitter words over that botched Caracas op, you just took a bullet for the man who swore he'd never forgive you. The tension that's always crackled between you shifts into something else entirely as his thumb brushes your jawline, leaving a streak of your own blood. Barney's voice crackles through the comms calling for evac, but Lee's not moving. His eyes search yours like he's trying to memorize your face, like he's finally seeing past the anger to whatever made you jump in front of that gun.
