Jessica was sitting at the bar. Her friends dragged her out because she had passed her exam. She was now a certified police officer for Chicago PD. Her sister Veronica was suppose to meet her any minute now. She looked up and seen her friend Alexis walking over to her. "Come on girl! This night is for you! Let's dance!" she basically shouted at her and grabbed her arm pulling her up from her seat. Alexis pulled her out onto the dance floor surrounded by a lot of dancing sweaty people. Jessica started getting into the beat and started dirty dancing with Alexis. As they were dancing she felt someone wrap their arms around her waist. She pushed herself back farther in the stranger's arms brushing against his chest. She felt lips skim down her neck making her moan softly. She turned around and looked into the eyes of the man she had not seen in years. The man she had a huge crush on since she was 12 years old. That man was her younger sister's best friend's older brother Lincoln Burrows. They continued dancing and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He smirked and leaned down to whisper in her ear. "Wanna get a drink?" he asked her brushing his lips against her ear causing her to shiver lightly. She nods not trusting her words and he leads her over to the bar. They sat and drank at the bar and danced some more. They left the bar and headed towards her apartment.
He had her pinned against her door grinding against her with one hand in her hair and the other gripping her hip tightly. She moaned in his mouth and he pulled back away from her. "I'm not gonna sleep with you tonight Jess." he whispered grabbing her face with his hand. "But I will take your phone number." He smirked at her as she smiled back at him. After that night he calls and texts her every day and they become official after three dates and one amazing night in bed.
1 year later Jess and Lincoln were still going strong. They ended up moving in together and on the weekends they ended up getting his son LJ who Jess loved as if he were her own. She was currently making dinner as an eight year old LJ was helping her make dinner. "Yay! You're doing an awesome job." Jess complimented as he was sitting at the table peeling potatoes. He smiled up at her happy at the compliment. "When is daddy going to be home?" He asked her. She looked up at the clock on the wall. "Hopefully here soon." she told him as she finished up dinner. Linc ended up being a half hour late that night. "Where were you? Are you OK?" she asked him as they stood in the living room so they weren't talking in front of the kid. "Yes. Just running late." he said brushing off her worry and headed into the kitchen to see his son. After dinner was over he told her he had a surprise for her and walked off into the bedroom. He came back out holding something behind his hand. She looked at his suspiciously as he walked up to her chair and knelt down on one knee. Her eyes grew big with surprise as he pulled a small box out from behind his back. "Jessica Marie, you have done wonders to me. You made me a better man, you keep me on the straight and narrow. I love you." he looked up at her as she had her hands over her mouth crying softly. "You make me and my son so happy and I wanna add to our small family someday. So will you do me the honor of being my wife. Be Mrs. Burrows." he smiled and looked up at her with a hopeful look. She instantly nodded and he smiled the biggest smile and put the ring on her finger. He shouted in glee as he picked her up and spun her around kissing her softly.
A few months later they got married at City Hall with just his brother and son and Veronica as witnesses. As the first two years passed Jess kept working as a police officer. Lincoln couldn't hold a job longer than a year. But as long as they had Jess's income they had no worries. Jess was still so madly in love with Lincoln. But her older sister Trish always wanted her to divorce him. "I don't understand why you're still with him." Trish said to Jess one day while they were having lunch. Jess just rolled her eyes. "I love him and I know he loves me. Why can't you just accept that?" she asked Trish angrily. "Because you can do so much better. You're working your way to becoming detective. And Veronica has just came back from law school. You two have so much going for you." Trish lectured/p
Jessica defended her love for Lincoln to Trish. Everything was going wonderful until Lincoln started acting strange. He always came home late and was always gone when she woke up for work. She tried to talk to him about it but he would brush her off. Then the one night she was coming home from work early. She unlocked the door and pushed it open. She turned on the light and looked up. She stopped dead in her tracks and she could feel her heart breaking. There standing by the window was Lincoln kissing her sister. They pulled apart and stared at her surprised. Lincoln pushed Veronica away and want to walk closer to Jess. She shook her head and he stopped. "Jess, please this is not what it looks like." he tried to say but she put her hand up and punched him in the face. "I want you both out of my house now." she said with tears coming down her face and walked past them and walked upstairs to her room and slammed the door closed.
After that night she refused to talk to Lincoln and Veronica. She always avoided him when he would show up where she was. She went to a lawyer and had divorce papers drawn up and sent to his new address. 6 months later they were officially divorced and she refused to see and talk to him, eventually he stopped showing up and calling. She gets a new partner Jason Clarke who takes an instant liking to her. As the time went on she didn't hear anything from Lincoln until one night while she was having dinner with Jason her phone rang.
She looked at the caller ID and ignored the call. Later when she got home she turned on the TV and the news was on. She pulled out her phone and listened to her voicemail as a breaking news report came on. She was listening to Lincoln's voice in her ear as she watched the news seeing that Terrance Steadman was murdered and they caught the murderer. She sat down on the couch in shock at what she just seen. But she took a deep breath and reminded herself that Lincoln was not her problem and tried to push him from her mind.
