Out of place; inspired by the colab ponyfall

I held Twilight tightly and and felt a tear roll down my cheek. I listened closely holding onto my hope. I could just barely feel it.

"Beat"

"Beat"

"Beat"

I quickly looked behind to see a few nurses helping Jeremy and security questioning Justin. I eased her out of the car and carried her over to them. I still held her face close. I could just feel her warm breath. Some of the nurses spotted me and a few rushed back into the hospital. I kept walking toward the door lost in my own mind.

"How could I do this, how could I hurt her like this."

A nurse came out the door with a gurney and stopped in front of me. "Set her down, we'll take it from here."

I set her down on the gurney and placed my hand on it. "I'm not leaving her. I can't."

"Sir, your going to have to."

"I don't care, this is my fault and I'm going to be there by her side."

Another nurses placed his hand on my shoulder. "Sir, you have your own injury and they'll need to help her. Come with me, you'll only get in the way."

I let out a long breath and followed him. My stomach was in knots as I left her. I felt like my whole body was refusing to leave her. But I had to. I mumbled the last few words I could. "I'm sorry Twilight."

I was led to a small room. "Take a seat and a doctor will be with you in a minute." the nurse said as he walked out the door.

I took a seat on the table and leaned against the wall. I remembered the horrible things I've done. All the pain I've caused, to myself and others.

I sat on the table with my shirt off. A doctor sat next to me with a suture and thread. "So you really like her don't you?" She asked stitching the graze on my bicep.

I let out a long. "Yeah I guess so. I just...I keep making things worse. I feel like none of this should be happening. Not to her."

"Just what makes her so different then?"

"You wouldn't believe me. I've gone through so much, so many strange and bad things. But I felt like she was the one good thing to happen to me, and I fucked that up."

she finished and disposed of the equipment. "Trust me, I've heard some crazy things. What so special about her?"

I furrowed my brow at how stupid it would sound. "She was a unicorn named Twilight Sparkle."

"The character from Friendship is Magic?" She asked wrapping gauze around my arm.

"Yeah."

"Sounds like you got some interesting luck." She laughed. "I watch that show with my daughter. I love Twilight."

I looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "You takin the piss?"

"Nope." She smiled. "Sounds like some crazy cos play incident the way you found her."

"Yeah well, I wish I didn't keep dragging her into my problems." I said looking down to the floor.

"Everyone has problems and she'd help you with them anyway. Twilight's a friend and she would help her friends with anything."

"But I'm the one that caused all this, she's hurt because of me. All I've ever done is hurt the people I care about."

"Don't' worry, she'll be fine. I heard she's just in shock." She said reassuring me. "Besides, you may have caused it, but you risked your life to make sure she wouldn't be hurt. If anything it sound more like it's your friends fault."

I felt some of the weight lift of my chest, but not much. "When can I see her?"

"In a little bit." She said getting up. "Your not a bad person," She said standing in the doorway. "you just need to set things right." and with that she walked off.

I let her words set in and lied down. I needed to think about what I was going to say to her and what I needed to get done. "I have a lot of work to do." I muttered.

I got up and slipped back on my blood covered shirt. The missing sleeve showed off the bandages and I had to admit, I looked fucking bad-ass. I walked out the door and spotted a nurse down the hall standing near an elevator.

"Excuse me, where would I be able to find someone who's been recently shot?"

"Uh let's see, Emergency ward, second floor east wing." He answered.

"Thanks."
