Summary
He doesn’t know how it happens.
Just that, one second he’s facing down a suspect; the next, he’s flat on his back, a searing pain tearing through his side. Carlos sucks in a ragged breath, a harsh cough ripping from his throat. Mitchell is above him, her eyes wide and panicked as she speaks into her radio, but Carlos can’t hear what she’s saying, which would probably be more concerning if he could put thoughts together right now.

five times carlos takes care of tk when he's injured, and one time tk takes care of carlos

Summary
“TK.”
TK jumps and looks up to see Carlos standing in the bathroom doorway. He doesn’t know how long he’s been there, hadn’t noticed him approaching, but if the look on Carlos’s face is anything to go by, it’s been a while.
“Are you okay?” Carlos asks, and there’s that look again. Worry, so obvious it makes TK’s whole chest ache, and the feeling only intensifies as Carlos scans his face, noticeably sticking on the scar.
My eyes are down here, TK wants to joke. Instead, he says, “I’m fine,” and ignores the way his voice shakes as he does so.

Summary
The thing is, Owen knows that TK probably thinks he is fine. TK’s always had a tendency to downplay his own illnesses and injuries, to the point where he’s even doing it to himself, which has resulted in more ER visits and emergency doctors’ appointments than Owen cares to remember.
So, much as he would love to believe his son, all the evidence points to him being very much not okay. Owen’s about two seconds away from calling Tommy over when TK’s face changes, his breathing suddenly becoming very carefully measured.
“Son?” he asks, reaching across the table to lay a hand on TK’s arm. The second he makes contact, however, TK violently shoves away from the table, chair legs scraping noisily on the linoleum.
“Bathroom,” is all the explanation he gives before rushing off, very obviously unsteady on his feet.

Summary
Once upon a time, Carlos had thought that watching as his almost-boyfriend was whisked off in an ambulance, bullet wound in his chest, would be the worst moment of his life. Then TK had been kidnapped, and Carlos had spent hours not knowing where he was, if he was alive or dead, and he thought - this is it. Nothing can top this.
But, having to perform CPR on his husband, having to hold him as he slipped away in his arms?
That was worse than even his nightmares.

Summary
Grace reaches out across the table, taking Carlos's hands in hers. “Carlos, we miss you,” she says softly. “I know it’s tough, but you’ve barely spoken to any of us since it happened. We’re worried. You know TK wouldn't want you to be doing this to yourself.”
Carlos doesn't look up at her, continuing to pick listlessly at his sandwich. "You say that like he's dead."
*
two months ago, tk vanished, snatched while out on his evening run. carlos will do anything to get him back, even if that includes running himself into the ground.
