Eddie stirred the following morning to the smell of frying eggs. Throwing the covers back she stretched her tired body before getting up stopping over the cribs finding them empty. Breathing softly Eddie walked to the kitchen where Jamie cooked breakfast. Conor and Daniel lay cooing in their bassinets watched over by Henry.
"Hey morning Eddie.." Henry greeted, putting the paper down hearing footsteps approaching. He felt bad for upsetting her hoping she had no hard feelings towards him.
Leaning over the bassinets to kiss her boys heads Eddie smiled placing a hand on his shoulder showing no ill feelings . Eddie loved Henry like her own grandfather."Morning pop.." Jamie turned greeting Eddie with a soft kiss while the eggs cooked.
"Okay enough of that you two remember your in the presence of elders." Frank teased, walking into the room in time to see them kiss. Jamie blushed, turning back to the frying pan flipping the eggs over while Eddie laughed it off.
"Morning pop, how are you feeling sweetheart," Frank poured coffee for Eddie then himself handing her the warm liquid interrupting Henry from reading him about all the times he shared a kiss with Mary.
Eddie graciously accepted giving him a warm smile. "Thanks I'm tired but otherwise okay.."
Jamie flipped the eggs into a plate handing it to Eddie. "Want some breakfast dad?" Before Frank had a chance to answer his phone went off. Using the distraction Eddie leaned up kissing Jamie quickly smiling as she carried her plate to the table.
"No thanks son I have to go that was Garret, something came up. I'll see you later pop, Eddie." Sighing Frank dumped his coffee into the sink grabbing the briefcase he'd left on his way out the back door.
"I don't miss that part of the job.." Henry commented with a gentle sigh, going back to his breakfast.
Making himself a plate Jamie sat next to Eddie smiling at her. "I won't be home late tonight have a few meetings."
After clearing Renzulli happily Jamie headed to the Manhattan DA office so he could talk with Erin. Walking through the office, ignoring looks by the female lawyers stopped in the hallway knocking on his sister's door. "Yea, come in."
"Hey sis.." Jamie greeted adjusting the tie he decided to wear. Without waiting for her to offer he took the empty seat behind her desk.
Erin didn't move or offer a hand out to her little brother watching him narrowed eyed. "Mr Reagan what can I do for you?" Her icy tone surprised Jamie taking his pad out for notes turning back ready.
"I came here to talk about the case against Mr Reagan. I have to ask you a few questions after doing some research I found out from reliable sources who claim you had an argument with my client.." Jamie didn't shy away from the accusation.
"Who exactly claims these accusations your client?" Erin narrowed her eyes at him thinking who he was.
The second cold response pushed a button in Jamie who often heard his father defending her for doing her job and now here she was angry for him doing his. "Not just Danny but we all know how you could be. I have witnesses who heard you two arguing so don't sit here and lie to me Erin!"
Leaning forward in her chair Erin folded her hands on top of the desk biting her lip surprised at her normally quiet brother daring the more experienced lawyer. "So what Danny and I fight all the time..are you implying I framed him? Really Jamie I'd frame my own brother? Your problem is you have no case so your reaching for any lead."
"Really cause you sound defensive and I have enough evidence to bring to a judge and have the case thrown out. Danny came to you for a supena which you denied prompting an argument and when Danny went over your head to get the supena you got angry . Witnesses heard you promising you wouldn't forget he did this.." Jamie recalled without having to read his notes having memorized mostly everything for the case.
"I can't believe you would think id do that to my brother."
"I don't hear you denying it.." Jamie pointed out.
Eddie pushed up to stand pointing a finger at the door with narrowed eyes. "Get out Jamie and If you come back I'll file papers against you.." Erin threatened, pointing at the door.
Smiling victoriously Jamie placed the pad back in his briefcase picking it up as he stood. "If I were you Erin I'd start thinking about asking to drop the case because you have no proof Danny did anything wrong, he's being framed. Don't waste your time sis because if it does your going to loose to your little brother."
Jamie walked out leaving the door open on his way out reaching for his cell to stop the recorder, saving the file to his memory.
Stepping out of the building Jamie paused thinking over the conversation and evidence he collected. Everything pointed to his sister something Jamie wasn't happy about.
He started walking to the car getting in as his cell went off, forcing a groan. "Reagan," he answered not bothering to check who was calling him.
"Hey Jamie its Marc just got something. Right after you left Erin made a phone call to another DA, the one Danny went to for a supena after your sister wouldn't give it. She asked him if he said anything to anyone.."
Jamie sighed, not liking where this was going. "Thanks for doing me this favor Marc I owe you one.. Who was the DA.." Taking the information Jamie thanked him again, ending the call he dialed his older brother's number sighing hard waiting.
"Hey Danny its Jamie can you meet me we need to talk, it's important. Okay thanks.." Jamie ended the call stowing his cell out of sight turning to watch New York pass from his window. After meeting his brother he would have to make yet another meeting this time with ADA Sal Peru.
