The sunlight from the curtain peeked into her room. What used to be both of their room. She rolled over and hugged the pillow that has been unoccupied for the past 6 months, today going on 7. His uniform still hung up ready to be worn. The picture of the two of them still standing on her nightstand giving her hope that he'll be back soon...hopefully.
He took an undercover assignment in the middle of the work day and had no time to say goodbyes or I love you. He was rushed to 1 PP with only the two adults having the knowledge of where he was. Frank and Danny.
Eddie came home from work to find Danny waiting at her door. Her heart dropped. The first thought that went through her head was that he was gone, dead, no longer here with her. Danny saw the worry in her face and grabbed onto her arm explaining the situation, that she couldn't be told anything. If it was leaked he could be in severe danger.
"How long?" was the only thing she could say or even ask in that matter.
"I don't know" he sighed. He didn't know. He was blinded as much as she was.
Now she was laying in bed holding his pillow close to her hoping that he would make some sort of appearance.
She heard the door to her room open and there was Danny and Renzulli standing before her.
"Eddie?" Danny said gently as he knelt down next to bed.
She turned her head from out of the pillow and looked at him, tears running down her face.
"Hey, hey," he said to her trying to relax her. "look at me." He said gently.
Renzulli moved closer towards her and sat next to her on the bed. "Hey, Eddie." He said which got her attention. "He's okay." He told her. She wiped her tears.
"Then what are you both doing here?" she sniffled.
Danny stood up and Renzulli got off the bed and opened her bedroom door back up. He turned the light on and there he was, no bruises or marks. Just Jamie, her Jamie.
She felt like she couldn't breathe, she didn't know if she was dreaming or messing with her brain. "Jamie?" She questioned in the middle of trying to catch her breath.
He moved to her bed and hugged her with all his might. "Jamie" she started to sob. He held her head in his hands and pulled her to his chest. "I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere." she thought her world was going to collapse. She lifted her head from his chest, "hi," she laughed with tears pouring down her face. Her wiped her cheeks, held her face and kissed her.
She put her face back in his chest and held him, never wanted to let go. "It's all done, I'm not leaving." He told her.
She lifted her face, "you both knew?" She asked as Jamie held onto her.
Renzulli smiled, "we picked him up from the airport this morning."
Jamie kissed her head as she leaned into him. "I love you...so much" he whispered to her.
