Author's Note: This is my FIRST (repeat FIRST!) 21 Jump Street fan fiction. I've recently become a HUGE fan of the series, and this idea popped into my head while watching Law and Order: SVU (another good series!) one night before going to bed. So yes, please be gentle with me...and also, if anyone who starred or was involved with '21 Jump Street' is reading this and wants to sue me, well, I've got bad new for you...I got no money! xD

Judy Hoffs was washing her face when her telephone rang from her bedroom. It was ten-thirty at night, the time when she was usually preparing herself to go to bed. Hurriedly, she washed her face off with hot water and raced to the phone before whoever was calling hung up. She picked it up and breathed into it, "Hello?"

"Hey Jude, it's me," came an familiar voice from the other line.

She sighed and smiled. "Hi, Tom. What's going on?"

"Nothing," was Tom's reply.

"Well, something must be up, since you're calling so late," she sat on her bed.

Tom sighed. "Oh, I don't know, Jude..."

There was a pause for a minute. Then, Judy said without thinking, "You haven't been drinking again, have you?"

"Mmmmm," Tom muttered. Judy quickly changed the phone from one ear to another.

"Are you sure you're all right?" she asked him.

"I'm fine, Jude, really," said Tom.

Judy pursed her lips. "Do you want me to go over to your place? You sound sad."

"No. I'll be okay," said Tom. Thunder rumbled from outside Judy's bedroom, and she heard static on the phone. Gently, she sank her two front teeth into her lower lip.

"Are you sure you're not drinking again? 'Cause if you are-" she started, but Tom interrupted. "Only a little bit."

Judy became worried. She had been working with him long enough to know that for him 'a little bit' meant 'a lot'. She sighed.

"I'll come over there," she said, getting up and putting on her shoes. "I'll be there in fifteen minutes, okay?"

She heard Tom sigh from the other end. "Thanks, Jude."

Then, there was a clicking sound, and the phone went dead. She heard thunder from outside her window again. She put the phone back on its stand and looked up into the mirror. Water had splashed all over her front. Annoyed, she took it off and wondered around her bedroom for a minute in her undershirt, looking for her favorite sweatshirt. When she finally found it, she threw it on, and, in her pajama pants still, she locked her front door and left for Tom's place.

By the time she had reached it, it had started to rain heavily. She pulled the hood over her head and hurried in. When she reached his front door, she pulled her hood off and knocked on it. From inside, she could hear Tom say softly, "Door's open."

She opened the door and entered. She found Tom slumped on the sofa. About four or so empty beer bottles were found on the coffee table in front of him, and, with, a shaking hand, Tom had the fifth bottle near his lips.

"Hey," Judy said quietly, closing the door behind her.

Tom looked up and pulled the bottle away from his lips. "Hi."

She paused in front of him, staring at the empty beer bottles. "You drank quite a bit."

Tom snorted lightly. "Hmpf. No really."

There was a slight pause. Then Judy said, "How long have you been drinking?"

"I don't know. Since I got home, maybe," said Tom.

"Well, it's getting late," she said. "You have work tomorrow."

Tom took another swig, as if he did not notice her.

"Please, Tom," said Judy. "No more drinking tonight!"

He looked up at her finally, and set his bottle down onto the coffee table with the empty ones. She smiled and collected them, and she drained the remnants from the bottles into the kitchen sink. Coming back into the living room, she grabbed a blanket and threw it on him. As she sat next to him, Tom gathered up some of the blanket into his hands.

"Here," he said. "Have some."

Judy stared at Tom for a few minutes, unaware of what to do. She forced a smile and spread some of the blanket across her lap. Then, they sat there on the sofa for a few minutes, staring at the TV. During a pantiliner commercial, Judy felt Tom's thick fingers slip into her long, elegant ones. She turned her head towards him, and he pulled his hand away.

"Oh," she said. "No, it's okay."

For a minute, Tom looked like he didn't know what to do. Then, he wrapped his arm around her and pulled her close to him. Judy noticed that, despite drinking all night, he smelled of Dial soap.

After sitting on the sofa for a while with Tom, Judy felt her body begin to relax, and her eyelids grew heavy. She laid her head against Tom's shoulder and closed her eyes. As she began to fall asleep, she felt Tom's hand slip down, so that he was now touching her hip. She opened her eyes, but before she could say anything, the electricity went out suddenly. Both of them jumped slightly, and as they looked at one another, they began to laugh, but their voices were drowned out by the heavy rain from outside...

The next day, when they were back at work, Judy was tired and Tom had a pounding headache. It wasn't as busy as most days were, and as they came in, they saw Harry writing something in a notebook and Doug testing out paper airplanes that he made. He looked over and saw that Judy was still in the same attire from last night. He raised his eyebrows as he eyed her pajama pants.

"Nice outfit."

Judy rolled her eyes. "Thanks," she said flatly, settling into her chair.

"So, what's going on?" asked Tom, sitting on Doug's desk.

"So far, nothing," said Harry, looking up.

"Where's Fuller?" said Tom.

"Don't know," said Doug. He looked at Tom. "God, Tom, you look like hell, man. You been drinking?"

"Last night I was," Tom muttered, scratching his ear.

Doug threw another paper airplane into the air. "Hungover?"

"Obviously," was Tom's answer. The airplane swivelled back and landed on Tom's lap. Tom crumpled it in his hands and threw it at Doug's head. Then, Captain Fuller came in, his face serious.

"What's up?" said Judy.

"Got a new case," Fuller answered. He reached into his bag and pulled out a file. He handed it to Tom. "Here. Take it."

Tom grabbed the file and opened it."What's it about?"

"A new girl at one of the local high schools is claiming that her father is sexually abusing her," explained Fuller. "No arrests have been made yet, but we're putting this under investigation."

"Why?" said Tom. "Why don't we just arrest him and put him under questioning?"

"Well, when the girl was saying this and that about what her father did to her, it all sounded a little..." Fuller seemed at a loss of words.

Judy raised her eyebrow. "Like she was making it up as she went?"

"Exactly," said Fuller. "Still, I want all of you to be very cautious about this, because she may have been speaking the truth."

Tom paged through the file and paused. "Rowan Lynch? What kind of a name is that?"

"It's Irish. Her and her family are from Ireland," Fuller explained. "She has an older brother, Seamus Lynch, who's in 12th grade, so it may make it easier for some more information. She also has a little sister, Dymphna, by marriage."

"I think it'll be kind of hard to go undercover as an elementary school kid," joked Doug.

"That's because you aren't, Doug. Tom is," said Fuller.

Tom widened his eyes. "What?"

"Officers Hoffs, Penhall, and Ioki, you will go the high school in incognito as usual, but Officer Hanson, you will be disguised as a teacher's aide at the elementary school," said Fuller. "I find that you have something in common with children; you both honestly-even bluntly-speak the truth."

Tom's face went pink as Doug began to snicker. "I can't believe it."

"Now, you shouldn't worry about this," said Fuller with a small smile. "I think you'll find something interesting about Dymphna's mother."

Tom raised his head. "What?"

"Did you happen to know a girl named Jane back when you were in high school?" asked Fuller.

Tom's eyes widened once again. "Jane? You mean, like Janie Libowiz?"

"Technically, Janie Lynch now," corrected Fuller.

Judy looked puzzled. "Did you know her, Tom? Were you friends with her?"

Tom turned to Judy, his face stark-white. "She used to be my girlfriend!"
