How to Save a Life (RP with doesntdosheep & <user site="livejou

Life was very, very good for Leonard McCoy.

Not that long ago, he had thought that his life was basically over. Everything had been taken away from him, and all it seemed he had left was drink. Which he had been more than happy to drown himself in.

But then Tonia had come into his life. Now he had his daughter, his home, his practice and her. Even if she hadn't literally been an a guardian angel sent to him, he would have thought her one anyway. She was his angel and always would be. Because of her, he was actually living again.

"Bye, Daddy! Love you!"

"Bye, sweetheart," Leonard said with a smile after giving Joanna a hug and kissing her head.

Standing back, he then watched as his daughter climbed on the school bus. Once she was seated, the driver pulled away from the end of the drive leading to their cabin. Leonard watched as the bus disappeared down the road, a smile spreading across his face as Joanna waved to him through the back window. He waved back, so glad that she was happy at her new school and thriving.

Once the bus was gone, he turned to head up the drive back up to the cabin, barely registering the sound of a motorcycle coming around the curve down the road.

Sometimes, Tonia felt like she was over staying her welcome. Not that she wanted to leave. She loved being on Earth and she loved being with Leonard. It had been so long since she had felt true love, and she didn't want to leave, even though she knew someday she would have to.

Which meant she was going to make the most of her time there. She made sure to always be there for both Leonard and Joanna, no matter the circumstance. They were her family until she went back to her own plane.

After hugging Joanna goodbye, Tonia went to clean up the kitchen. Even though she had special powers, she didn't use them most days. Tonia liked being domesticated It seemed to fit her.

She had just finished putting the dishes away when a funny feeling came over her. Without thinking, she popped out of the kitchen and to the spot right in front of Leonard, who was walking to the front door.

"Leonard, something isn't right," she said just as the sickening sound of metal crashing filled the air.

As they waited for his mom to show, Jim felt his stomach start to churn. His eyes continued to tick toward the clock, and he got more nervous by the moment. Not because he didn't want to see her; Jim was worried she'd gone out to the house and Frank had done something to her.

When she finally arrived, Jim found himself reaching out to her. He took her hand and thickly swallowed. "I'm going to be okay but promise me you won't go back there," he said. "I went out there to tell him to stop touching you, and he shot me. Then I got into a motorcycle accident but Leonard and Tonia found me. Just don't go back there, Mom. Please."

Tonia looked from mother to son and cleared her throat. "If you need help getting your things out and a place to stay for a while, we can help you," she said.

"You two have already done so much," Jim said.

"We like helping people," Tonia said as she glanced at Leonard.
