A/N: I know these chapters have been shorter, but I'm trying to get bback in my updating groove. So hang in there with me. Also I have a Valentine's one-shot ("Six White, Six Red") up, please check it out. Thanks.
Disclaimer: I don't own it. Probably never will.
Jamie sighed, softly running circles on his sleeping partners back. After Danny and the rest of the cops left, he had sat down next to Eddie. After about five minutes of silence, he had put a hand on Eddie's shoulder. Immediately she began sobbing and curled up into his chest. After about an hour of crying, she had fallen asleep, exhausted. Now she was sitting beside him, head on his chest, sleeping soundly.
Jamie felt a vibration coming from his pocket, and pulled out his phone.
"Yeah Danny?"
"How's your partner?"
"After you left, she started crying again. She's asleep."
"OK. Remember how Eddie had drugs in her system after the attack?"
"Yeah?"
"Well the report just came back on her sister. Same drugs. And there was an injection spot on the back of her neck, identical to the one on Eddie's."
"So it was the same person?"
"Most likely. Did Eddie say anything about the attack that sounded strange?"
"Actually, we haven't really talked about it."
"Well, when she wakes up, please try to ask her about it."
"I'll try. But I have never seen her in a state like this. I can't promise anything."
Jamie ended the call and leaned back against Eddie's couch. He surveyed Eddie's apartment. He thought back to a different time at Eddie's apartment. The day when he had come to check on her, finding her bloody and bruised. He remembered her screaming out Jake's name in terror the night before. Had it really been only the night before? It seemed like a lifetime. He wondered how often she had the nightmares. Then he remembered that Jake wasn't the only person she dreamed about.
A thought occurred to him, and he quickly sent a text to Danny.
You might want to check out Eddie's dad.
A/N: So how are you feeling about this one?
