Work Text:

 Despite all her good will, Riley was not far from slapping her right hand against the cheek of this insufferable man, FBI agent or not.

The young woman took a deep breath to calm herself, she had to go through this door by any means. The man she secretly loved needed her right now.

"I'm sorry but you are not allowed to go inside." said the agent to the Hacker.

The young woman was seething from the inside, but she couldn't blame him either because he was just only doing his job after all. There had to be a way to convince him to let her in.

Surprised, she felt her phone vibrate, it was in the back of one of her jeans pockets.

The young woman stepped aside and picked it up, after recognizing the voice of the drector of Phoenix.

“Matty!!  You called at the right time, the agent stationed in front of Mac's room refuses me access.”

 A wave of sadness washed over the young woman when she thought of Mac.

 "He would do the same for me if I were in his shoes" whispered the young woman with a hint of sadness in her voice.

"Riley, I never doubted him for a second, let me go. wire to his responsable and you can join him right after, I promise.”

"Both put an end to the call, and she decided to go for coffee.

Riley couldn't stop thinking about what had happened during those last 48 hours, he had been kidnapped and certainly drugged.

The young woman drank the last drop of her coffee when she heard the man standing in front of Mac's door swearing.

Matty had kept her promise, as always.

Riley positioned herself in front of the door, a smile of satisfaction on her lips.

She held her breath as she stood in front of the door, then took a deep breath before going inside.

He was lying on the bed, both of his wrists were shackled with handcuffs on either side of the bed.

Riley's soft, delicate hand rested on the blonde's, startling him.

 She could see fear in both of his eyes, the sound of handcuffs was not totally unrelated to it all.

He fluttered his eyes, the outline of the silhouette of the young woman was still a little blurry, he couldn’t distinguish her completely.

“Who is here ?” he whispered.

 His geoliers must be in the next room, he wanted to pull the blanket down on him but couldn't, they had handcuffed him and threatened to put him in jail for the rest of his life.

"It's me… Riley…"

A spasm ran through him, what was Riley doing in that white cage?

 " Riles? What are you doing here ?”

"His voice was panicked, he couldn’t understand anything. His mind was clouded, he couldn’t think.

"I came to get you Mac."

"You came to get me How? »

The young man, still a little more confused by the words of the hacker, did not understand her.

Riley took the time to observe him for a few minutes, the doctor who had taken charge of him had told them that he had been drugged without his knowledge.

"It's okay Mac, you're safe now."

 She reassured him as she tried to remove the pair of handcuffs he had on either side of the bed.

 "I haven't stopped looking for you Mac."

 Her voice stumbling over every word, Mac was the most important person to her.

 "As soon as we heard that the FBI had found you, Russ immediately got the jet ready to come get you."

"The pair of handcuffs was now on the nightstand beside her. The young man whimpered when he tried to stand up.

Riley felt she had to let him rest and made her way to the door, but she stopped a hand on the doorknob. She turned around, her eyes red with tears.

"I'll let you rest."

Mac's broken voice made her break.

"Will you stay with me?"

"A small smile on her lips, Riley put her backpack next to the chair, and Mac tapped on the mattress. The two had never had such closeness.

Just before joining him, she took care to go to the bathroom to retrieve a washcloth and run it under cool water.

 She placed it on the latter's forehead but he protested vigorously and almost threw it to the ground.

"Mac, it's me Riley, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore, I promise."

"Riles ...”

"The young woman took care to remove her jacket and sat beside him.

"Nothing will happen to you while I'm by your side, try to sleep now." Riley’s voice whispered.

Mac rested his head on the young woman's neck, his body releasing the pressure little by little, his breathing had calmed down when he felt the young woman's skin against his.

She was his world.
