~I do not own Eye Candy just the storyline and Sasha.
This idea came to me after Lindy and Jake slept together and we knew he was the killer. I was not sure how it would work together and the uncertain ending helped out a lot. I haven't done any kind of fanfiction since early 2013 and this show has captivated me has brought my love for fanfiction again. Please review and let me know what you think I have an overall idea for this story but like most of my stories I just write as I go.
Chapter 1
Five months. That is how long it had been since Tommy had last seen Lindy. In fact that is how long it had been since anyone had seen Lindy. In five months not much had changed. Sophia had almost fully recovered from being stabbed by Jake and had welcomed George into her home as a help to both of them. She was able to get rent and have someone there and he was able to have a place to stay and help tracking down Lindy. Connor stayed in touch with them as well and visited Sophia quite often as did Tommy's partner Yeager. Yeager and Sophia were not exactly dating but he did spend his fair share of time with and took very good care of her.
Then there was Tommy Calligan. Tommy spent his free time that he wasn't working on a case keeping his promise and looking for Lindy. He was almost positive that she had gone to her hometown and had even gone there once without any luck of finding her or Sara. Tommy knew for a fact that Lindy had the skill that if she didn't want to be found she would not be found. This brought Tommy to tonight, to the night that would change his life forever. This was the night where he did not find Lindy but she found him.
It was around ten o'clock and Tommy was on his computer trying his hardest to not find a dead end in his search for Lindy when he heard a knock at the door. It was late for most people to be leisurely out and about and Tommy just assumed it was Yeager or George with some new information. Tommy was surprised when he opened the door to Lindy. Lindy hadn't changed much over the past five months but Tommy could see that she had been out in the rain for a while and the dark circles and blood shot eyes meant that she had not had a great time away. Tommy then made his way to look at the rest of her and noticed a swollen stomach indicating that she had to be pregnant and pregnant for a while now. Lindy was the first one to say something to break the silence of what seemed like years.
"I, I was scared and alone and I didn't know where else to go." She stammered on still standing in the doorway with her laptop case and what appeared to be a backpack with her belongings in it.
"Come, come in." Tommy stumbled out, pointing her to his couch.
Tommy helped her sit down and immediately got some blankets from his guest room along with a bottle of water. Lindy didn't say anything else and Tommy knew he was going to have to try and get something out of her. He sat down beside of her on the couch making sure to not get to close and to not try and startle her.
"Lindy, are you okay." He asked her slowly touching her hands that were trembling.
"I, I don't know. I've been running for months trying to find my sister and everything ended up to a dead end and then I got a random text last night from an unknown number that. . . that." Lindy said all in one breathe and she couldn't finish before she started breathing heavy again.
"What did they text say?" Tommy leaned a little closer.
"It said…" Lindy took a deep breathe before she continued. "Did you miss me EyeCandy?" Lindy said before she started crying again. She didn't even think about it when she leaned into Tommy who automatically wrapped his arms around her trying to comfort her. It took Tommy a few minutes but he finally was able to get her calmed down enough to finish talking.
"Was there anything else in the text?" Tommy asked letting her lose something but not letting go of her hands.
"That's all I got. I freaked and didn't know what to do. I had been staying with an old family friend up home and just left. I called her later and told her a friend here had a big problem and she didn't question it. I jumped on the first train here this morning and knew you were the only one who would be willing to help me." Lindy told Tommy truthfully before looking down and getting to the hardest part, the part she had been dreading since she knew Tommy saw her stomach. "As I am sure you see I am pregnant. I found out a month after I left here. I was so scared but my friend Sasha, the one I stayed with, helped me through it. As I am sure you are wondering yes Jake is the father. I mean he is the only person I had slept with since Ben. I had some tough choices to make and no matter what I knew that abortion was not an option and that adoption was what I was going to do."
"Lindy, I am so sorry." Tommy said before she could say anything else.
"I regret everything. I regret it all and now I am here on your couch blubbering like an idiot."
"Lindy listen." Tommy began as he pulled Lindy's face to look at him. "I am not going anywhere. I will be here for you and I will help you to find out who is doing this. Jake is safely behind bars for the rest of his life and will stay there. I will never let anything happen to you again."
"Tommy? Can I stay here tonight?" Lindy asked shakily. "I don't feel like I can go to Sophia or George or even Connor yet."
"You can stay as long as you like." Tommy said as he sat up a bit. "You can have my bed and no arguments. I'll take the couch, believe me I've had beds much worse than this." Tommy said as he helped Lindy up from the couch. He then went into his room and grabbed some sweat pants and a t-shirt and handed them to Lindy. "Here wear these they are warm and clean and should fit." Lindy smiled before she disappeared into the bathroom to change.
Tommy looked around and could not believe what was going on. She was there, Lindy Sampson was in his apartment. She was safe and she was with him. He was broken from his thoughts when she came back in the living room in his clothes. She stilled looked good despite her bigger stomach which showed a bit through his t-shirt. She shyly walked over and grabbed her laptop before taking a seat once again on the couch. She opened the laptop and logged on frantically looking for something. Tommy noticed how frantic she was and sat back down beside of her this time closer than he had before.
"This is the only thing I could find out about the text that I had gotten. It was sent from a phone somewhere in my hometown and as soon as I found that out I came back here. I have to tell Sasha sometime, I'm worried about her, I just freaked and came here." Lindy began to ramble again.
"Lindy, you need to get some rest and we can work on this in the morning. I know you don't want to get your friends involved but we made need George's help." Tommy tried to reason with her.
"I know and I'll figure it out tomorrow. Tommy thanks for everything. I know that we didn't end on the best of terms but I really do appreciate everything you are doing for me." Lindy said as she leaned in and hugged Tommy. It was the first real passionate anything they had shared really ever.
"Lindy you don't have to thank me. I would do anything for you." Tommy said as he lightly rubbed her back in response. "One other thing my dog Boris is asleep in my room and tends to want to jump on the bed. I will try and drag him in here with me but he may end up back in there and I am pretty sure he weighs more than you do so don't be startled if he comes in."
"That's no problem. Thank you for this for all of this." Lindy said before flinching a bit and putting her hand on her stomach.
"Are you okay?" Tommy asked worriedly as he looked down.
"I'm fine. The baby just likes to kick when I am getting ready for bed." She said as she stood up and rubbed her stomach a bit until it settled down.
"Do you uh know if it's a boy or a girl?" Tommy asked not want to intrude too much.
"It's a boy." Lindy said before she walked past Tommy to his room. "Thanks Tommy." Lindy said one last time before going into the room. With the way she said it Tommy knew she meant thanks for everything and not just for a place to stay.
After a few minutes of trying to get Boris into the living room Tommy finally did and settled down to an interesting night's sleep full of dreams of Lindy and a peace that he knew would only come while she was just in the other room.
I am not sure when I will be able to get another chapter up. I have a 10 page paper due this week for one of my grad school classes and many other things. Just know that this story is on my mind a lot and I can't wait to work on it. Also if you guys want to get ahold of me with ideas or anything else my Twitter is han_itsthelaw20. Please R&R
