In a case you worked on with Carlton you both were good friends with chemistry but neither of you was brave enough to ask the other out.

As you and Carlton tried catching the suspects you two, got in a bad shooting you got shot 3 times, through your liver, shoulder and thigh. You immediately went unconscious and got brought to the hospital and operated.

You slowly woke up in the hospital room blinking a few times while looking around and groaned from the pain. As you look around you saw Carlton his head was laying on your mattress while he sat beside you on a chair and cuddled with your hand.
