Goodbye - Neil {TENET}

Goodbye - Neil {TENET}

Pairing: Neil x Reader

Words: 1.5k+

Type: Angst

Summary: Y/N decides to leave after Neil comes back injured from a mission.

Warnings: Mentions of blood and death.

You walk back in the room and stare at Neil’s asleep state. He looks peaceful, just like any other night.

It doesn’t even look like he took two bullets onto his abdomen and isn’t laying in a hospital bed.

He had just come back from surgery a few hours ago, and he should be waking up soon, or at least that’s what the doctors said.

Your chest aches at the sight of all the cables connected to his body and the large bruise on his jaw. You had seen the large bandage that covered his torso when a nurse came to check his stitching, and you just can’t take your mind off of it.

imagine neil recruiting you or saving you during a mission 👀

Right! I feel like if he would recruit you he’d have it stuck in his head that he’s responsible for you now since he was the one who pulled you into this whole thing.

That gave me a little idea so, i wrote it (and i made myself sad :( )

I’ll be alright

Neil x Reader

“(y/n)? hey! look at me”

You could hear Neil’s voice echoing in your head. The sharp pain above your stomach made it impossible to answer, you tilted your head to look at the figure kneeling next to you. Your breath became faster and more shallow, you open your mouth to speak.

“no, no don’t” Neil shook his head as he lifted your shirt to examine the gun wound.

“I’ll fix it, you just...i need you to stay calm okay?” The pain was growing stronger, you reached to grab his hand and squeezed it tightly.

“Neil...” you started

“no, no, no don’t talk, please. I’ll get you help, I can fix this. hey, you hear me?”

You looked up at his face and nodded quickly.

“you’ll be fine, you’ll be fine i promise” Your body shivered, was it from the pain, cold, or were you just scared?

Laying on the ground you could see the blood covering Neil’s hands as he applied the bandages over your wound.

“is it all mine?” you thought and instantly felt dizzy. You knew he’d help, you knew you were in safe hands, you trusted him...but your eyelids felt heavy. You knew you couldn’t close your eyes, you’ve helped him save people before, you knew letting them drift away was dangerous.

“... I’m scared” you said quietly “Neil... I’m sorry, I’m scared.”

“No, no don’t be sorry” he started, trying to calm you down “I know what I’m doing you’ll be alright I promise”. You shivered again and he pulled you up so you could rest your head on his chest.

“Just don’t close your eyes love, okay?” He held you tightly in his arms as he placed a kiss on your forehead. “You can’t close your eyes, you can’t. Do you understand?” He stroked your hair gently and you could swear you head pain in his voice. “

I’ll be alright” you whispered as you tried to keep your own body from shutting down “i promise”

IMO, and I say this with 100% seriousness, Mike and Eleven’s greatest relationship flaw is that they love each other too much. They do desperate things that backfire because they’re so afraid of losing the other person, and Mike wasn’t able to verbalize his feelings because they were too intense. Unironically, he loved her too much to say it out loud. It’s fantastic. Throw in some mortal peril, personal angst, and feelings of inadequacy and baby you got some grade A capital-D Drama. I mean, if your romantic leads aren’t desperately clawing at each other, unable to breathe properly outside of each other’s presence then what’s even the point? I certainly don’t fucking care lmao

In this vein, I like to think if they do have a major conflict in s5 it’ll be them both wrestling to be the one who takes the most damage in the plot in order to protect the other, or having to pull each other out of the way of bullets they’re willfully standing in front of. The good ending is them using their protective instincts in tandem and working together as a well-oiled power couple but you know, we’ll see where the vibes are :) or uh, whatever completely different thing the writers have planned lmao
