It took a lot of time, blood, sweat, and trainees lost but he did it. He got Washington back. Well, he saved the rest of everyone too but he was hell bent and seeing him again. So persistent in fact from the moment they rescued them Tucker was grounded from seeing Washington being in the Republic's not to shabby medical area. Kimball said that Wash needed some R&R, and Tucker agreed but God.
It doesn't hurt just to see him does it?
Finally Tucker somehow managed to get into the room they were keeping Wash. He past the nurse and slipped into the bedroom(which was really a hole in the wall with a drape over it).
Wash's back was covered in scars, both new and old and it seemed like the old were cut open again. That big one, where he heard that Freelancer lady that he hated shot him, was carved open and looked like that was the biggest wound. But all over his body was cuts and stab wounds.
Tucker walked over and crouched down next to the bed and moved Wash's hair out of his eyes and right when he did the Ex-Freelancers eyes shot open like a deer in the headlights.
"Hey, it's just me man." Tucker exclaimed quickly yet his voice was soft.
"Tucker...Tucker, it's you."
"Yeah...It's me."
" Okay good. I thought He came back."
Tucker didn't ask because he knew.
" No, he isn't touching you ever again." That was enough venom in his voice to take down an elephant.
"Tucker I-"
And in that moment he climbed on the bed and hugged Wash around his chest. Tucker's head was under Wash's chin and he breathed. Wash was here. He was here with him.
"Shut up, Wash."
"No, but I-"
"David, I swear to Christ I had to go through so much shit to get to you and the least you could do is to just roll with the hug."
