In His Refuge

Jason sat beside Ellie's bed in the ICU. Her hand held in his as he sat holding it to his lips, his eyes not leaving her face, pale with tubes running through her nostrils yet still so beautiful to him, her red hair was unbound and sprawled against the white pillow as the beeping of the heart rate monitor was the only sound in the room.

It was soothing to him, that steady rhythm, made him a little less restless.

He had called the emergency contact that the FBI had left him with and they told him to stay out and stay with her at all times till they get there.

He wasn't going to leave her side in the first place, he didn't need to be told twice about that.
