Note; HAHA! I do have internet here. :D

I'm so happy right now you have no idea. And just gotta say, Hunter and Blake definitely hate each other. And I'm going to have fun with their future conflicts. XD

And I have to smile at ARI's comment of "I liked to think that Blake was secretly being protective of Norman" I actually was going for that. Blake may Hate Jayden at times, but he's having too much fun with him to just let some prick come in and take him away... lol.

Pairings; Carter Blake x Norman Jayden

Chapter X

Jayden sluggishly walked into the precinct, his head was killing him, and his back hurt from sleeping on the floor. He ran a shaking hand through his hair and looked around the precinct noticing Blake was working on his computer, slowly Jayden made his way over to the man. Knowing he looked like shit, seeing as he wasn't only paler then usual but he had a black eye, a split lip and a split eyebrow. Not to mention he walked with a limp seeing as every step caused a huge surge of pain to rush through his side, he was guessing he had some fractured ribs from Blake's kick. He stopped by the man's desk and leaned against it to keep himself balanced, "Blake can we-"

"How long is your buddy going to be here?" Blake asked motioning towards the coffee machines where Hunter currently stood talking with a couple of officers. Jayden looked towards Hunter cursing under his breath as he stood up straight, well as straight as he could, while adjusting his tie.

"Can we talk in my office?" Jayden asked rubbing his temple as pain began to pulse through his head from the everyday sounds on the precinct. Blake sighed in annoyance as he got up leading the way. Jayden was thankful when they reached the sanctuary of his office, he moved passed Blake and sat down in the chair and rubbed his face with his hands. "Blake… I need my tripto." Jayden said in a weak voice, Blake walked over and rested his hands on the desk smirking down at him.

"Too bad, I flushed it." Jayden rested his head on the desk with a groan in annoyance; he could feel like this was going to be one hell of a bad day. They both turned towards the door as someone knocked on it, Hunter pushed in the room and looked from Jayden to Blake.

"I need to speak to Jayden… alone." Hunter said with a glare in Blake's direction, Blake stood up straight and looked Hunter over already not liking the guy. "If you'd be so kind…" He moved out of the way of the door and watched Blake carefully.

"I'll be at my desk if you need me." Hunter just smirked.

"I highly doubt I will."

"I wasn't talking to you." Blake hissed shoving passed Hunter, purposefully hitting his shoulder into the other man's. Hunter watched the door slam and then turned his attention to Jayden.

"He seems like quiet the character."

"You'll get used to him…" Jayden muttered, this definitely wasn't helping his headache. Hunter pulled out a vial of tripto and set it on the desk next to Jayden's head.

"I understand the noble act of trying to stop, but you look like hell." Hunter said, Jayden eagerly reached for it only for Hunter to roll it away from him. "I have a test for you first."

"Test?" Jayden basically groaned the word; he was so annoyed that everyone wanted something from him for tripto. Hopefully Hunter would be kind enough to keep his side of the deal… unlike Blake who just fucked him over… literally.

"Put on your ARI. And leave it on until I tell you to take it off." Jayden sat up watching Hunter carefully; hesitantly he pulled out his glasses and slipped them on.

"And this is all I have to do?" Jayden asked arching a brow; Hunter looked around the room and sat down on the desk.

"Yes… you can look through some files if you want, work on the case, play games, talk to the Barman. Just don't take them off." Hunter said while pulling out a pad of paper and pen, he looked at his watch and wrote down the time.

--

Blake randomly found himself looking towards Jayden's office, thinking of what the agent said the other day. 'Why do I care so much…? I hope he has a reason to get that snot nosed kid out of here.' He stopped typing and looked back towards the door. "Is something bothering you?" Blake looked over to Ash who was working at his desk; it was hard not to notice Blake's obvious annoyance.

"Have you met the new agent?" Blake asked hate lingered in his words; Ash stopped working and looked toward Jayden's office.

"Unfortunately…" Ash muttered, Blake leaned back in his chair and glared at his computer screen. "Why?"

"He gives me a bad feeling." Blake muttered looking back towards Jayden's office.

"I heard he's here to keep an eye on Jayden… What's that about?" Ash asked Blake shrugged as he looked back towards him.

"Some idiot offed himself when he heard Riley was back." Ash arched a brow as he looked at Blake who muttered 'Dumbass' under his breath.

"And they think Jayden's going to kill himself as well?"

"Some shit like that." Blake muttered looking back towards the agent's office. "His attitude is worse than the kids."

"I noticed, he acts like he owns this fucking place."

"If he doesn't leave soon I'll fucking make him." Ash just smirked at his friends comment, he actually wouldn't put it passed Blake to do something like that.

"Blake, I need you and Jayden to go inform Britney Sanders that Glenn has been found. We got word from the coroner the body was in fact Glenn Sanders'." Perry said as he walked over to Blake and Ash's desks. "Where is Jayden anyway? Still at his hotel?"

"Hunter and he are talking, probably about some official shit." Perry frowned at the other man's name as he looked to his watch.

"Take that prick with you; I don't want him terrorizing the precinct." Perry muttered walking away.

"I'd rather piss glass…" Blake hissed under his breath, getting up he walked over to the office and knocked on the door. Not waiting for it to be answered he shoved the door open and looked at the two agents, Jayden was playing his hands across the desk and Hunter was pacing back and forth, stopping to look at Blake.

"Can I help you?"

"Come on Norman, we have to go talk to Britney about her husband's massacred corpse, hell you can even pull your bleeding heart act while getting information out of her." Blake stated, ignoring Hunter's presence. Hunter looked from Blake then back to Jayden with a smirk as he continued to play the invisible piano. "What the hell is he doing?"

"Playing the piano… obviously," Hunter said with a smirk, Blake arched a brow as he looked from Hunter to Jayden then back.

"The fuck are you talking about?" Hunter gave a heavy sigh and rolled his eyes.

"I wouldn't expect you to understand, you're just a Lieutenant, this is," he motioned to Jayden, "official government business. Now why don't you be a good lap dog and go play with your toys." Hunter said with a smirk, Blake glared at Hunter and stalked towards the man slamming the door behind him.

"I've had enough of your fucking attitude, Hunter, why don't you go back to fucking Washington where you belong. In fact you can take the fucking kid with you; we don't need you assholes here anyway."

"Really? And that is why Riley has been able to kill thirty six people, in three months, without you guys even lifting a finger to try and stop him. If I were you Lieutenant, I'd step down." Hunter mused darkly.

"Is that a threat?"

"I do believe it was actually. Why going to do something about it? Go ahead, Blake, I dare you to try and fight me. And while you're in the hospital Jayden and I can get some real work done."

"You fu-"

"Am I interrupting something?" They both looked towards Jayden who was now holding his glasses and looking back and forth between the two.

"I told you not to take those off." Hunter said with a slight glare, using his annoyance accidentally on Jayden.

"Well, I would still be wearing them but it's hard to concentrate with you guys having a pissing match behind me." Jayden stated, fiddling with his glasses to try and ignore his shaking hands, Hunter rolled his eyes and held out the vial of tripto.

"We can pick this up later." He said looking back to Blake who was now glaring at him. He watched as Jayden snatched the tripto out of his hand and quickly snorted some. "I'll need it back; I'm going to monitor your dose from now on. So I'll need all the vials you have as well." Jayden lazily handed the drug back feeling it rush through him.

"I don't have any more."

"You finished all your vials." Jayden shook his head as he stood up, he could feel the pain disappear he looked at Blake for a second noticing the man was still glaring at Hunter.

"No… It's a long story…"

"We have time." Hunter said looking to his watch.

"No, you don't have time; we have to get to work. Why don't you make yourself useful and clean this fucking place, I mean you're here to help him after all." Blake snapped shoving Jayden towards the door.

"You do know he's going to come with us right?" Jayden asked as Blake basically dragged him out of the precinct.

"When the fuck is that asshole leaving?" Blake asked glaring in Jayden's direction.

"Probably when I do." Jayden said with uncertainty as they reached Blake's car, getting in Jayden looked around then back towards Blake. "I take it you're going to leave him here?" Jayden asked, Blake replied by driving off. "You know he wouldn't be such a dick if you were nice to him." Jayden said looking over to Blake who just glared out the windshield. "What the hell did he do anyway?"

"Why is he here?" Blake asked, he hadn't gotten a straight answer from anyone.

"To make sure I don't do anything stupid."

"Then why don't they just call you back to Washington and watch you there?" Blake asked in annoyance, Jayden looked from him to out the window wondering what Hunter did to piss Blake off this much. Then again the man just seemed to be generally pissed off at everyone.

"Because they know I get under Riley's skin. You didn't answer me though… What did he do?" When Blake didn't answer Jayden gave a heavy sigh and looked out the window.

"The guy who killed himself… What did Riley do to him?" Blake asked in slight interest, deciding to ignore the question about Hunter. Jayden stayed silent before finally deciding to answer.

"We located Riley and we went after him. While chasing after him he set off sprinklers completely drenching us in water, we didn't think anything of it at first which was a mistake on our part. Either way he then led us to a dead end where he mock surrendered, I kept my gun on him and Clay moved forwards to put him in cuffs. He waited for Clay to put a hand on him and then he pulled him in line with my shot, so I had to move to get to him. Before I knew it Clay was screaming and Riley took off in a run I went to Clay's side and found out that he had lye powder covering him. So I called for backup telling them to bring vinegar while searching the room for some." His eyes shifted from out the window and began to follow the tiny tanks that moved around the dashboard. He hadn't seen them since he had arrived; he was hoping that they would be gone for good, obviously not. "After getting him to the hospital we found out Clay was blind in one eye, and there was nothing we could for his face, he was completely burned from his forehead to hips... After a long stay in the hospital he was able to go home… his wife left him two months later, and he was no longer allowed to see his kids… The worst part of it all was Riley was Clay's best friend." Jayden said noticing Blake pull over to the side of the road; Blake hesitated then started to get out of the car.

"I don't trust this Hunter guy." Blake muttered as he got out and closed the car door, Jayden watched him before getting out, following the man to the front door or a rather nice looking house.

"I can assure you that Hunter's a good guy."

"Right." Blake muttered under his breath.

"What are we doing here anyway?"

"We're informing Britney we found her husband." Blake said looking over to Jayden then back towards the door. "Perry figured you could question her while we're here."

"Great…" Jayden muttered knocking on the door.

"You drive really fast." Jayden and Blake both turned and looked to Hunter who closed his car door and walked towards the two of them. "You seem surprised to see me."

"What the fuck are you doing here?" Blake asked with a glare.

"Following my friend and some asshole who thinks he owns him." Hunter stated flatly returning the man's glare.

"Can you guys do this later, we have a j-"

"Can I help you?" Britney asked standing in her door way looking at the three men; Jayden quickly turned his attention to her ignoring Blake and Hunter's staring contest. He was actually wondering if the two would start circling each other like two wild dogs fighting over territory.

"Hello, I'm Agent N-"

"Norman Jayden, FBI, Carter Blake, Lieutenant, and someone I don't know… Yeah. What do you want?" Britney asked obvious annoyance held in the woman's voice. "Wait? Did you find Glenn?" She asked with hope in her eyes.

"Uhh… Yeah… that's actually what we need to talk to you abo-"

"Why didn't you say so sooner, please come in, make yourselves at home." Britney said moving out of the way allowing the three men to walk in the house. Hunter looked around the nicely decorated place, his eyes scanned over it memorizing every detail, even the fact that one of the pictures on the wall was slanted a little to the left. And according to how the picture sat on the nail it would never be able to sit straight, for whoever made the frame was off when they put the attachment on the back.

"You might want to be careful, Blake, there are a lot of breakable things here… I've noticed you have the tendency to bump into things when they aren't even in your path."

"Why don't you say that to my face, asshole?" Jayden felt embarrassed to be around the two of them at the moment, he knew Hunter was usually the one who had control over every one, so he wasn't surprised that Blake and Hunter didn't get along, but this was already becoming ridiculous. If he hadn't had his tripto he probably would have snapped at the two, he just felt bad that Britney had to deal with this when she was about to receive the worst news she'd probably heard about her own life.

"We actually are here on bad terms, Mrs. Sanders." Jayden said hoping that the two men would buttheads later on instead of in Britney's house. Britney went pale from Jayden's statement and she covered her mouth with a hand, shaking her head tears already started to pour from her eyes.

"You mean he's…"

"Yes… I'm sorry for your loss." Britney covered her face and sobbed at the news. "I know this is a hard time for you but I have some questions I'd like to ask about your husband's disa-"

"I have nothing more to say to you. I told you all everything! He didn't come home from work and that was the last time anyone had seen him. Now get the hell out of my house." Jayden hesitated then held out a calling card for her.

"Well if you ha-"

"I don't have anything to say to you, aside from great job doing your work! You were able to save the life of a kid and kill a killer before a week's end last time you were here. And now… now you can't even catch or find anything on the guy you have already caught. Now if you'll excuse me I have some unwanted calls to make!" She snapped basically knocking the card out of Jayden's hand as she walked away from him tears streaming down her face.

"That was… chaotic…" Hunter said as the three of them walked outside.
