Author's Note: After that cliffhanger of a finale I felt I had to write something so I at least could pretend the story ends properly. This story takes place minutes after the finale, with Cameron in jail realizing what Jonathan did and realizing he needs Kay's help. Kay and Cameron's feelings for each other are also pretty evident, and they both seem to ready for a relationship. My first fanfic attempt so please read and review with any suggestions!

Season 2: Chapter 1
"C'mon Black, it's your turn on the phones", the guard said.
Cameron followed the guard out of Johnny's cell through a maze of hallways until he reached the phones. There were two other prisoners already whispering on the phones, so Cameron picked the one farthest from them but also as far away from the guards as he could get. Cameron tried to remember Kay's personal number but couldn't, so he had to settle for calling the FBI office.
"Federal Bureau of Investigations of New York how may I help-"
"Hello, I need to speak with Special Agent Kay Daniels right now. Tell her it is an absolute emergency" Cameron burst out.
"Sir please hold while I get Agent Daniels."
Cameron was fiddling with a loose thread on the end of his tan prison shirt. He couldn't believe Johnny had knocked him out and tried to leave his own brother behind bars. He wanted to call his own phone and beg Johnny to come back but he didn't wasn't sure he could trust Johnny after what he just did.
The FBI receptionist called Kay on another phone that she had an urgent call from New York Corrections at the front desk. Kay thanked the receptionist and asked her to forward it her office phone. Kay closed the door to her office and picked up her now ringing office phone.
"Hello? Johnathan?"
"Kay! Oh thank god! Kay you have to get to the prison right now. It's not Johnny it's Cameron." Cameron exclaimed as he struggled to keep his voice down in the phone area. "I went to talk to Johnny earlier today and he knocked me out and switched places with me! I'm stuck in prison now!"
Kay was shocked at what she was hearing. She was still reeling from the whirlwind of emotions of realizing she had feelings for Cameron only to get her heart broken by him when she confronted him in the archive earlier than night. Now she realized she confessed her feelings for the wrong brother. A light of hope jumped back in her heart before she realized the bigger problem at hand.
"Okay Cameron don't freak out. I'm going to talk to Deakins and get you out of there as soon as possible. I'll try to be there as soon as I can. Until then, do try your best to act like your brother", Kay said. "Oh, and Cameron? Keep your head down and don't get into any trouble."
"Alright Kay. I trust you. See ya soon." Cameron said, but Kay heard the trembles of fear in his voice.
Cameron hung up the phone and walked to the door, waiting for the guard to let him out. In prison he wasn't even allowed to open the door by himself. He followed the guard back to his-err Johnny's cell.
Cameron sat on the bed and took everything in. He was in too much shock to actually look at the room when he was led back after his last meeting with his brother. Now that he looked around, he realized how very little there actually was. Bed, toilet, and a shelf with a simple supply of toiletries, books, and clothes.
"Is this really all Johnny has lived with for over a year?" Cameron thought to himself. "No wonder he got so mad whenever I told him about what I was doing outside here. He had nothing in here" Cameron realized.
Cameron laid back on the bed and just started to think. Thinking about how his brother was so was so mad at him he didn't want to escape with him. He felt he had to betray Cameron and stick him in jail so Johnny could roam free. Then Cam started to think about Kay. Smart, funny, beautiful Kay. He never got to tell Kay how he felt about her when they spent everyday together, and now Cameron was worried he would be stuck in here and would never have the chance.
Cameron was still stuck in his musings about Kay when another guard started unlocking his cell. "You've got another visitor Black. Let's go," the guard said.
Cameron jumped up and followed the guard through the halls of the prison. Before the guard let him into the meeting room he made Cameron stand wide as he was patted down. The guard was just doing his job and didn't think much of it, but Cameron was visibly uncomfortable and squirmy no matter how hard he tried to keep still.
The guard noticed and though Cameron was nervous to meet Kay. "Jittery to see your pretty lady friend tonight are we?" the guard snarkily remarked.
Cameron didn't want to guard to think he was nervous because of the pat-down so he said, "Uh yeah a little".
The guard laughed as he unlocked the door and held it open for Cameron to walk in. As the door slammed shut Kay looked up, making eye contact with Cameron.
