7: Under Attack
"Jamie are you sure I look okay?" Grace asked for what seemed like the millionth time the following Sunday. Today was the day that she was going to meet Jamie's family and to say that she was nervous was an understatement.
"For the last time, yes! You look beautiful. Why are you so nervous?" he asked as he rubbed her arms.
Grace was wearing a pair of black jeans, with a blue sweater and boots. She looked simple and pretty.
"I just want them to like me, I mean you know that cops and firefighters don't get along." she replied.
"I'm not denying that Princess, but you are not the firefighter, your family is. And honestly, I don't care if they like or accept us. I love you and if they don't accept that you are in my life then I am good with having Sundays free for the foreseeable future." he said.
"Jamie, we both know how much your family means to you. Are you sure you could just walk away from that...for me?
"If they cared or loved me, they would accept how happy I am with you." Grace nodded and looked down. "Get your stuff, we need to go." Grace gathered up her purse and cell phone and walked out with Jamie.
One they were there, Jamie started to walk in.
"Dad-" Jamie was cut off by Grace.
"Wait! Give me a second. I need to collect my thoughts."
He was pulled back out by Grace.
"Hun, you will be fine. I promise. Hold your own." He warned her. She raised a eyebrow but he pulled her back inside. "Dad! We're here!"
He lead her to the dining room where everyone was sitting. "Guys, this is Grace. Grace, that's my Dad Frank, Danny my brother, Sean and Jack my nephews, Danny's sons. Grandpa Henry, Nicki, Erin's daughter and Erin."
He introduced them to the family.
"Hello. I'm Grace. Nice to meet you all."
So Grace, what do you do?" Danny asked after they said grace and everyone began to eat.
"Danny, maybe we should wait with the questions." Erin said as she looked at Grace.
"Yeah, how's the arson investigation going Dad?" Sean asked as he smiled at Grace.
"It's okay, the investigator is a pain in the ass though, said that he wants to be kept in the loop. He wants to go to the DA too." Danny answered.
"What did you say his name was again?" Henry asked.
"Andrew De Marco. He is a real ass.." Danny started.
'So Grace, what do you do for work?" Erin asked before her brother could get too carried away.
"I work for the DA's office actually" she replied with a small smile.
"Really? Where?" Erin asked. "I work there too."
Before she could answer Danny cut her off. "Why are we skipping over my answer?"
"Because we don't want to hear your answer Danny." Erin shot back.
Grace turned to Jamie and he was smirking. She didn't like the fact that Danny was talking bad about her brother. Jamie grabbed her hand and rolled his eyes at his siblings bickering.
"Well I'm just saying that I am a detective. I know a little more about being a detective than a arson investigator."
"Well, he knows a little more about fire and what is wrong and right about it." Grace mumbled.
"What?"
"A arson investigator is trained to know what is right and wrong with fires. If something is off they are trained to know it. A detective is trained to know a lot about homicide. It's two different areas of investigation. You may think he's a pain in the ass but he's doing his job just like you are." Grace told him.
Danny raised a eyebrow as everyone went quiet at the table.
"Sorry, I guess I really didn't introduce myself. Grace De Marco. The pain in the ass's sister also the liaison for the fire department." She smiled.
"My girlfriend everybody." Jamie said, proud of her.
"Welcome to the family." Frank nodded and looked to Danny who was still silent and picking his food.
"Well I apologize." Danny told her.
"Don't. You have your opinion. He just really believes that something is wrong. He wasn't wrong with the Garden arsonist. I don't think he is wrong now."
"Wait a minute... You work with the FDNY... Why?" Henry asked as Danny nodded.
"Grandpa" Jamie said.
"No, Jamie I got it. I know there's always been some sort of feud between cops and firefighters. I've always thought it was stupid. I grew up around it and it seems to me that it's a bunch of little boys and girls fighting because they did not get their way. Both sides have jobs that involve keeping the public safe, and it would seem that it would be better for both sides to work together when needed. My dad and granddad and brothers are all FDNY, I used to think that I had to do it too. Being a firefighter was not for me, I decided that I would rather go to law school instead. So this way I get to be FDNY and do what I love."
"I like that. Doing what you love and working with your family. I get that." Erin said, agreeing. That's something they had in common.
"Thank you." Grace smiled to her.
"So If were done interrogating my girlfriend, let's change the subject." Jamie suggested. "Sean, how is football going?"
After the dinner with Jamie's family, Grace felt good about the way things were with their families. Jamie's family had been wonderful and Erin even asked if she wanted to get lunch the following week. Everyone had been so welcoming, and it made her hope that her dad and brothers would feel the same way once they got to know Jamie.
It was Tuesday night, and Grace was staring at the cake mixes in front of her. She wants to bake cupcakes for the office but couldn't figure out if she wanted chocolate or funfetti. She groaned and pulled out her phone.
"Hey baby." Jamie said as he answered.
"Cupcakes, chocolate or funfetti." She asked.
"Funfetti always. Why? Don't answer that, free cake." He joked.
"Thank you baby. I'll be to your apartment soon. Can you get a bowl out?"
"Of course. I love you."
"I love you too."
Grace grabbed two cake boxes and two frostings and placed them in the cart. She grabbed milk, eggs and Jamie's favorite beer and cereal. She checked out and walked out to the parking lot. She placed the bag in her car and noticed she was the last car in the lot. She looked at her watch and saw it was nine at night. She groaned and closed her trunk.
She walked to her door when she felt someone push her against the car. He grabbed her wrist tight and pulled it behind her back. She tried to scream but her attacker covered her mouth.
She tried to twist her body where she could move away from his, but his grip on her wrist got tighter and she felt something snap. He pushed himself against her and leaned where he could whisper in her ear.
"Listen you stupid bitch, tell your brother to back off of the Arson case. If not, bad things will happen. Nod if you understand." he whispered.
She nodded slowly and he released his grip on her. He spun her around and pushed her to the ground. She tried to break her fall but her wrist was in pain and hurt worse when she hit the ground.
"HEY!" someone yelled.
Grace looked up to see her attacker running away and the cashier running over to her.
"Are you okay, ma'am?" he asked concerned.
"My wrist." she said softly.
"I'm gonna call the cops, it will be okay." he said.
It wasn't long before the cops arrived. Grace leaned against the car with her wrist against her check. Two cops ran over and started questioning her. She just stared off into space until medics were checking her eyes and she snapped back.
"Ma'am? What is your name?"
"Grace. I need to call Jamie." She whispered trying to find her purse.
"Who is Jamie?" One of the cops asked softly to her.
"Jamie Reagan. My boyfriend."
"Ok. My name is Officer King. I will call him for you. He's a friend. We should get you to the hospital." She nodded and the medics placed her on a gurney and into the ambulance.
Parker King pulled out his phone and dialed his friend's number. "Jamie? It's King. I'm sorry to call you late but it's about Grace."
Jamie rushed into St. Victor's twenty minutes later. He rushed down but luckily remembered to turn off the oven. He ran up to nurses station but a voice grabbed his attention.
"Parker! Where is she?"
"She was taken up to x Ray. She will be right down. Her mom is on her way too." Jamie nodded and sat down.
"What happened?"
"She was attacked in the grocery lot. She didn't say much more before she was taken upstairs. I need to head out though. We will be back later to get her statement." Jamie nodded and Parker left.
Jamie was lost in his thoughts when he heard Grace's name being said. He looked up and saw a older version of Grace standing at the nurses station. He stood up and walked over.
"Mrs. De Marco?" She turned around and looked at Jamie. "I'm Jamie Reagan, Grace's boyfriend." He held out his hand but she hugged him.
"Is Grace ok?" She asked when she pulled away.
️"I don't know. Parker said that she was attacked in the parking lot at the store, and that they were taking her up to x ray. She called before she left the store, said that she was getting stuff for cupcakes. I should've been with her." he said softly.
"Jamie, you couldn't have known that this was going to happen. I'm sure she's going to tell you the same thing, but let's just hope she's okay." she said as a doctor came over to them.
"Grace De Marco?" she asked.
"Is my daughter okay?" Laura De Marco asked.
"She's going to be fine. She has a broken wrist and some scrapes. But other than that she's just a little shaken up. I gave her a prescription for pain pills, but as long as she keeps it elevated, it should heal fine. I'm going to be discharging her soon." the doctor said.
"Can we see her?" Jamie asked.
"Yes, a nurse will take you back." she said as she smiled at the two of them.
"Thank you doctor." Laura said.
Jamie hung back as Laura began to follow the nurse.
"You coming Jamie?" she asked .
They arrived at the room and Grace was sitting up on the bed. She had a purple cast on her left wrist. Laura ran in and grabbed her in a hug. She hugged her mother back and turned to Jamie. She held her arms out and Jamie gave her a hug too.
"Are you ok?" He said looking her over.
"Yeah, luckily I'm right handed." She told him.
"And alive." Laura added.
"It's ok. Honestly, I'm fine. I'm shaken up but it happens."
"It happened to you though."
"Mom, I'm here with you now. That's all that matters." She reassured her mom.
"Did he say anything?" Jamie asked. Grace took a moment to think. She bit her lip and shook her head.
"No. He didn't get a chance to."
"Ok sweetie, do you want to go home with me?" Laura asked.
"No. Jamie can take me back to get my car and I will go to your house. I will be over in a few days for dinner."
"Ok. I love you."
"I love you too." Her mom gave her a kiss and turned to Jamie.
"It was wonderful meeting you. Wish it was under different circumstances."
"It was nice meeting you too. I would love to take you out to lunch with Grace and I."
"Of course, let me know." He nodded and she left.
Jamie turned to Grace and raised a eyebrow.
"Ok what did he say?" He asked her.
"What do you mean?"
"When he attacked you, what did he say?" She shook her head. "You bit your lip and looked away before answering, that usually means your lying or horny and I'm guessing you're not in a mood so tell me."
Grace sighed and looked at Jamie. "He said to tell my brother to stop investigating the case or next time it will be worse."
"You need to tell Andy."
️"There's not much I can tell him. I didn't get a look at the guy, he wore gloves, and he just wanted to scare me." she said.
"Baby, he hurt you, and he scared you. I don't want to take the chance of him doing it again, so please tell Andy, or I will call Danny." he said as he kissed her forehead.
"Okay, fine. I'll tell him on Friday when I see him at our parents house for dinner. Can we go home now?" she asked.
"Yeah, how about we get your car tomorrow, or I call someone to drive it home. I want you with me." he said as he held her good hand.
"Call Katie, I just want to go home." she said as she yawned.
"Okay, let's go.' Jamie said.
He called Katie from Grace's phone and explained what happened. They met her and Luca at the store, then Katie drove Grace's car back to her place. After Grace promised to call or text the both of them after she'd gotten some sleep, they left. Jamie gave her a pain pill and then carried her to bed.
"I'm glad you're okay Babe." he said as he held her.
"I am too. He scared me though." she replied.
"He scared both of us. I love you so much." he kissed her softly.
"I love you too." she said through a yawn.
"Get some sleep. Princess." he said as he turned off the light.
The rest of the week moved slowly, much too slow for Grace's liking. She had plans to go to her parents house for dinner on Friday night. Jamie had been busy with work and she had told him that she wanted to talk to her dad and brothers alone before subjecting him to dinner with them.
"So Brat, Dylan mentioned that you're seeing someone. Who is it?" Jeff asked when they all sat down to dinner.
"No one that you know Jeff." Grace said as she glanced at Rachel who was trying to suppress a grin.
"Princess, are you seeing someone?" Her dad asked.
Grace can not lie to her dad. She tried before and the disappointment of her lying hurt her dad more than the lying. She never tried again.
"Yeah for seven months now." She whispered before stuffing her face.
"What's his name?" Jeff asked.
"Jamie."
"What does he do?" Her dad asked.
"He works for the law." She said not exactly lying.
"He a lawyer?" Andrew spoke up with a mouth full of food.
"What's with all the questions? Were in love. We spend a lot of time together and are happy. Let's move on." Grace asked nervously.
"Spend a lot of time together?" Andrew asked confused.
"Yeah arresting her in bed." Dylan mumbled but unfortunately loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Dylan!" Grace yelled, angry.
"Arresting her?" Jeff raised a eyebrow.
"Is He a cop?" Her dad asked, getting angry.
Grace nodded slightly and Rachel grabbed her hand for support.
"Now Andrew, don't get angry. She is free to date whoever makes her happy." Her mom told her dad.
"You knew didn't you?" He asked her mom. She nodded. "You're not allowed to date a cop Grace!"
"Jamie? As in Danny Reagan's brother?" Jeff asked. "You're dating the commissioners son!" He accused her.
"He is his own person Jeff." Rachel pointed out.
"This is UNACCEPTABLE! You are to break up with him immediately."
"You can't tell me who I can and can not date!" Grace snapped and stood up, chair flying backwards. "I am happy with him. I love him and he cares a lot about me dad. If you can't support me then I'll leave and you can stay out of my life forever."
"Fine. Then leave Grace."
"Dad!" "Andrew!" "You can't do this!"
"She can't date a cop." Jeff told them.
"Cops aren't welcomed in this family." Andy agreed.
"Fine then. Goodbye." Grace grabbed her purse and walked out the front door.
"Grace!"
Grace turned around and saw Dylan, Rachel and Kara running out the front door. They watched as tears fell down Grace's face.
"Hey, we support you ok?" Rachel told her.
Dylan hugged Grace as she sobbed into his shoulder. She felt like she couldn't catch her breath. He carried her to her car and got into the driver's seat.
"Take me to Jamie's please." She asked sobbing.
Rachel and Kara followed in the other car as Grace told him where to go. She fell asleep against the window. Dylan pulled up to Jamie's and lifted her up again. Rachel and Kara followed Dylan up to Jamie's apartment. Kara knocked on the door.
Jamie opened the door and noticed Grace in her brother's arms. "What happened?" He asked immediately, concerned
"We had dinner with our parents tonight and I let it slip that you're a cop. Our dad got angry and our brothers followed suit. She had a panic attack." Dylan said as he carried her to the couch.
"I'm gonna call your mom, she can talk some sense into your dad. Rachel and I are going to deal with our husbands. By now I'm sure they figured out that we are pissed with the way we ran out of there, so we need to head out soon." Kara said.
"How did your family take all of this?" Dylan asked Jamie.
"Pretty well, they all like Grace. My brother wasn't exactly singing Andy's praises, but Grace held her own and defended him." Jamie answered as he looked at Grace.
"I can't understand why they acted like that, I mean I've never seen their dad get so angry." Rachel said as she sat down next to Grace who had woken up.
"Dad's never been a big fan of cops, always felt like the ones at the top were on a power trip or something. Said that it had something to do with when he was in college and trying to decide if he wanted to be a firefighter like Granddad or a cop. Other than that he never really talks about it. I'm sure he wasn't thrilled to hear that his only daughter was dating a cop, or that our mom knew about it." Dylan said.
"Well Andy and Jeff won't be happy with us either, but that's not an excuse." Kara said as she rubbed Grace's back.
"He actually told me to leave and my own brothers agreed with him! I can't believe he actually thought I would break up with you over your job." Grace said looking at Jamie.
"Baby please don't take this the wrong way but I don't want you to have to choose between your family and me. I understand if you choose them." Jamie said grabbing her hand.
"No! I want you. I love you."
"I love you too, with all my heart." Jamie wrapped her in his arms and held her tight. She fell asleep in his arms.
"We will leave you two alone. I'm glad she has you." Dylan told Jamie.
"Thank you."
They left Jamie alone with Grace. He lifted her and laid her in his bed. He took off her shoes and jeans, leaving her in underwear and her shirt. He covered her with a blanket and laid down next to her, covering himself too. He cuddled up to her and fell asleep..
The next morning, Jamie left before Grace woke up, leaving her a note. He had a doctors appointment for his check up. After a clean bill of health, he walked back to his car. He stopped by his favorite cafe and waited in line. Ten minutes later he ordered Grace and his favorite foods and drinks.
He heard his phone ringing and saw Danny calling. "Hey Danny, how are you?"
"I'm good and you?"
"Just at Delina's Cafe for breakfast. What's up?"
"Nothing just checking in. How's life?"
"Well Grace's family found out she's dating me and now she's disowned from her two brothers and dad's life but other than that we're good." Jamie said sarcastically.
"That's harsh. You do know it's not your fault, right?"
"Maybe if I stayed a lawyer.." he thanked the waiter and took his food and drinks and walked out to his car.
"Then you would be in a sucky marriage with Mrs Material Girl." Danny said referring to Sydney.
"True. I just feel bad." He placed the drinks on the hood of his car and looked for his keys.
"You can't feel bad for doing a job you love or being in love Kid. They will come around one day, you just focus on loving grace, ok?"
"Thanks Danny. I will. How's the Arson case coming along?"
Jamie dropped his keys and bent over to grab them. "We found how he's starting them. With a pipe bomb. His signature is a red and blue wire-" Jamie cut him off.
"In a bow?" Jamie asked.
"Yeah, how did you know?" Danny asked concerned.
"I'm looking at one." Jamie said staring at the bomb under his car.
Jamie dropped his food and looked around at the citizens around him. "BOMB! EVERYBODY RUN!" He screamed.
Everyone started running. Jamie kept repeating what he was saying as Danny screamed on the phone.
"Kid? I'm on my way!"
Jamie dropped his phone as he heard a click. He realized he didn't even move a inch, just worried about everyone else. He started running before he heard a book noise, felt the heat on his arm and back. He felt himself flying in the air before everything went black.
Everyone ducked for cover. A few minutes after the blast, everyone poked their heads back. They heard the sirens in the distance, the sound of fire crackling and ringing in their ears.
One male walked out and looked around the area, his name was Ken. This was nothing new to him, spending three years in Iraq. His blue eyes landed on the man, laying in his stomach. Phone cracked a few feet away from him. He could see the burn marks on the back of his arms, legs and his back. He ran over to him and checked for a pulse immediately. He smiled in relief as he felt one.
Two cop cars arrived on scene first. After securing the scene, one ran over to him. "How is he?"
"I think second degree burns, maybe a third degree here. I say concussion is moderate. He's alive though, hasn't awoken." The cop raised a eyebrow.
"Army medic." He explained.
"Wait..." the cop trailed off. He lightly rubbed some ash from Jamie's face. "Shit."
"What?"
"He's a Officer for us." The cop mumbled.
"What's his name?"
"Jamie!" The cop and Ken looked up to see Danny running over.
"Jamie! What happened? Danny asked as the paramedics worked on his brother.
"He has a concussion, the blast sent him flying. He might have 2nd or 3rd degree burns, but he's alive." one of the paramedics explained.
"Let's get him loaded and take him to St. Victor's." another said.
"I'm coming with you." Danny insisted as they loaded Jamie into the ambulance on his stomach to avoid disturbing the burns on his back.
"You're gonna be okay kid." Danny said as he climbed in beside his brother.
The ambulance does flew open as the medics rushed Jamie out of doors. "What do we have?" The doctor asked. The medics went over everything then rushed him past some doors.
"Sir you can't go back there." The nurse told him.
"I'm his brother though."
"I know. He is in good hands." The nurse walked through the doors leaving Danny by himself.
Danny sat down in the waiting room. He rested his head back before getting his phone out and calling his dad.
"Hey Danny. Everything ok?" His dad asked.
"The arsonist went after Jamie dad. He's in the hospital." He broke the news
"I'm on my way." His dad hung up and he knew his dad would let everyone else know. He couldn't get the image of Jamie with burns out of his head. Seeing his brother so still killed him. He was never one to be still, even in his sleep.
He grabbed his phone again and called Eddie. He knew they were fighting right now but Eddie did care a lot about Jamie and Visa Versa.
"Janko." She answered.
"Eddie. It's Danny. The arsonist went after Jamie and he's in the hospital. Just thought I would let you know."
She paused for a second. "I'll be there as soon as I can. I have to make a pit stop."
"Where?"
"Grace."
Eddie stopped outside of Jamie's apartment. She stopped here first. She got Grace's address just in case she wasn't here. She knocked on the door and waited. Grace opened the door in Jamie's t shirt and boy shorts.
"Jamie isn't here." She told Eddie right away.
"I know. I came to see you."
"Why?"
"Jamie. He's been hurt." Eddie told her. Grace dropped her hand and bit her lip. Eddie could see the tears forming in her eyes. "He was at Delina's. The arsonist put a bomb under his car. He cleared everyone out but himself in time. He's at St. Victor's." She explained softly.
Grace nodded and let her in. "I'm going to get dressed." She choked out.
Eddie stepped into the apartment and sat down as Grace walked into the bedroom.
Once inside the room she closed the door and cried silently as she went to find her clothes. She pulled on her jeans from the night before and grabbed a t-shirt that she had left there. She quickly ran a brush through her hair and pulled it up into a messy bun before she grabbed her purse and met Eddie in the kitchen.
"Let's go." she said as she opened the door.
Eddie followed her out and after Grace locked the door, they were off to the hospital.
"What happened to Jamie?" Grace asked even though she really didn't want to know.
"Danny didn't say, all he said was that the arsonist went after Jamie and that he was at St. Victor's." Eddie answered.
"I owe you an apology Grace." Eddie continued.
"No you don't." Grace argued.
"Yes, I do, the way I acted in the bar was wrong. It was petty and mean, and I shouldn't have said those things to you." Eddie said.
"Why did you?" Grace had to ask. "I never gave you any reason to."
"I was jealous like you said. I've loved Jamie for a long time but after I saw how much he loved you, I realized I was in love with the idea of loving Jamie. We're better off partners only."
"And best friends." Grace added on with a smile.
"That too." Eddie smiled back.
They arrived at the hospital and found Danny and Frank. Frank and Danny gave them both hugs and they sat down with him. Soon enough the waiting room was filled with cops including Lt. Renzulli and Jamie's family.
"Jamie Reagan?" The doctor asked and thirty people stood up. He raised a eyebrow at them.
"I'm his father but you can tell us all. We are all family."
"Ok. Jamie was lucky. He has second degree burns to his back and back of his thighs and arms. They will heal and may leave a few scars. He has a moderate concussion. He will be here at-least a week to watch out for infection. He will be fine." They all sighed in relief.
"Is he awake?" Grace asked the doctor.
"Yes He is. You must wear a mask and gown to go in though. He's on the third floor burn unit. Anyone that is sick can't go." They nodded and thanked the doctor.
Everyone gave a cheer and hugs before the family and Grace went up to the third floor.
Once everyone was wearing masks and gowns, the family decided that Grace should go in first so that she and Jamie could have a few moments alone. She walked in and saw Jamie laying on his stomach.
"Hey Baby." he said when he saw her.
"Hi. Oh Jamie's I'm so glad that you're okay." she said as she took his hand.
"I'm just glad that you weren't with me. I don't think I could take you being in here too." he said.
"Your family is waiting outside to see you. And I'm sure Danny will have to talk to you about the case." Grace replied.
"Okay, you can tell them to come in." he said finally.
Grace nodded and soon the rest of the Reagan's were crowded around the bed.
"You scared us Kid." Danny said as he looked at his little brother.
"We're really glad you're gonna be okay, Jamie." Erin said as she squeezed his hand.
"Do you remember what happened Son?" Frank asked.
"A little, but I want to wait until the Arson Investigator gets here so I can just go over it all at once." Jamie said.
"I'll call him. You rest Kid, I'm sure Grace will wake you when he gets here." Danny said.
"She stays, whatever we have to discuss, she stays Danny." Jamie said.
"You got it kid." Danny replied as he pulled out his phone.
It wasn't long till Andy got there. He walked in, in his gown and mask. He looked at Grace with a blank face then looked at the damage to Jamie. Jamie wasn't even looking at him, he was looking at Grace with love in his eyes. He looked back to Grace and saw the smile on her face. He shook his head and turned to Danny.
"The arsonist did this?"
"Yeah."
"Tell us what happened Jamie." Frank told him.
Jamie began to tell his story. He would stop a few times to groan or catch his breath. Grace's glove covered hand held his the entire time.
"Why is he going after Jamie?" Andy asked them.
"That's a good question. Maybe because he's my brother?" Danny suggested.
"I don't think so, I mean, he would have no reason or way of knowing that you were going to catch this case." Frank said.
"Maybe it was a perp that Jamie put away or something?" Erin asked.
"Maybe, we can look into that." Andy said.
"It could be that he wanted to make it personal. I mean before now he stuck to empty buildings except for the scene last week when the old man died from smoke inhalation. That is a 180 degree change in MO to go from empty buildings where no one was harmed to a death to a deliberate murder." Grace said looking at her brother.
"True, and if he wanted to kill Jamie, the car bomb would have done it.." Andy said.
"See babe, now I'm really glad you weren't with me today." Jamie said as he kissed Grace's hand.
"He even followed Jamie to a cafe to plant the bomb. We should check security cameras." Danny pointed out.
"This was definitely personal. Get some rest Jamie." Andy told him and left.
One by one everyone headed out. Jamie and Grace were left alone. "They won't let me stay the night Jamie but I will be back in the morning. I love you babe."
"I love you too." He said half asleep.
The nurse came in and gave him more meds. Grace blew Jamie a kiss and walked out. She was on a mission now. She will find out who did this one way or another.
