A/N: I'm not sure if I can wait two weeks for this new episode
Don't own it.
They were eating lunch in the breakroom when Voight told them to gear up because they were going to raid a suspect's home. The drive over was typical, him arguing to drive and her laughing, her trying to change the radio station and getting yelled at. He took her hand off the radio and laced his fingers with hers. Even when they arrived up he didn't let go of her hand, he put her hand to his lips and placed a gentle kiss on her knuckles. He was worried she would get hurt, but he's been worried a lot lately so she brushes it off.
While everyone else is clearing the house, Jay and Erin go to clear the garage. It was just a small, one car garage with a side door and the big front glass door. Jay took the front and Erin took the side, entering at the same time they both saw the same thing. The barrel of a gun, and then nothing.
Erin gasped for breath as she fought for her eyes to open, they felt heavier than usual. But when she got them open and lifted her head up she saw Jay against a wall in the corner.
"Jay!" Erin could barely tell that was her own voice, caught in her throat and rougher than usual. "Jay. Come on, Jay!" He wasn't moving, but she could see his chest rising and falling. Erin stood up, but felt as if she was about to fall back down, so she crawled over to him. She checked his pulse, feeling a strong and steady beat beneath her fingers. Next, she looked him over for other injuries, finding a gash on the back of his head and a gunshot wound on his thigh.
Erin stood up to feel for a light switch, sliding her hands up and down the wall looking for it. After turning it on, she regrets it completely. All of the walls and the floor was concrete, there were no windows and the only door was made of steel with no handle on the inside. The only thing that could lift her spirits was when Jay. As if on cue, he groaned in pain.
"Jay." Erin moved as fast as she could over to him. "Hey, slow down there buddy. You have some serious injuries." When he finally opened his eyes, she saw fear and confusion in them. He tried to say something. "Don't bother. I've looked around and we're stuck here." Jay nodded, accepting the fact that they could be here for a while.
Erin moved in to sit close next to Jay. "They'll find us, Erin. Don't worry, I know Voight wouldn't give you up that easily." He felt her nod on his chest, "I won't give up on you that easily."
Voight radioed in for the team to meet up after they clear the house.
"Where's Lindsay and Halstead?" The rest of them shook their head, shrugged some shoulders. "Lindsay, what's your location?" The only response he got was static from the responding radio. His blood ran cold even thinking about something happening to her. "Antonio, I want teams searching the area. Two of our own are missing with our suspects." Dawson nodded at his boss, glancing at the two other men beside him.
Ruzek looked terrified, as he well should be. As a rookie, you experience your firsts on the job: first shootout, first collar, first hostage. He just never expected his first missing persons would be Lindsay and Halstead, especially in Voight's unit.
Olinsky tried not to be too upset, but the older man thought of Halstead as his own son. He'd taken Jay under his wing when he first joined Intelligence, knowing he wouldn't know how to deal with Voight. Over time, the two grew closer, and Jay began to open up to him about the war and even asking for advice about Erin. Alvin knew that those two had something real, something that neither of them really knew about. And he knew Jay needed this to work with her.
Voight didn't even try to hide how scared he was. Erin was family to him, she would always be family to him. He saved her from herself when she was younger, and in a way she saved him too. He was losing himself after his wife died, and Justin was already off the rails. Even just the chance that something could happen to her, made him quiver.
Jay was leaning against the wall in the corner of the room, he had Erin's head resting on his chest and her finger intertwined with his. After what seemed like a few hours, light shone across Jay's eyes, waking him up from whatever sleep he just got. He moved slowly, partially as to not wake up Erin and partially trying not to hurt himself. He saw that the door was slightly opened, and there didn't seem to be any shadows. Jay tried to get up himself, but he was in far too much pain, so he decided to get Erin's help.
"Erin, wake up. The door's open and I don't think anyone's there." She started to stir slightly. "Come on Erin. We can try to get out of here." After that, she was already up and helping him. They were out the door and nearly outside when they started to hear the men behind them yelling. Jay turned around as they made it out of the doorway, spotting the five men running at them with guns. He was in so much pain, he knew he would slow Erin down trying to get out of here.
"Erin! Go without me. I'll never make it!" He saw that she started to cry.
"No Jay!" She shook her head at him. "We're partners! In every friggin sense of the word, that means I won't leave you behind!" Erin grabbed his arm to help him run, "we can do this Jay, trust me."
The two of them kept running, even when they heard the trucks start, they never slowed down. Running through a field, into the woods, finally stopping in a hollowed out tree in the river. Jay's eyes were scrunched shut in pain, he was clutching his thigh where the gunshot was. The only positive thing Erin noticed of his current condition, he wasn't having an anxiety attack.
Seeing how bad his wound was made her cringe. She needed to help him, she took off his belt, leaving him curious as to what she would do next. She wrapped it above his wound, quickly pulling it tight before he noticed what was going on. He started to scream, Erin didn't know what to do because she didn't want the men to hear them, but she didn't want to keep hurting Jay. So she covered his mouth with hers, muffling his screams and trying to bring some pleasure to him.
Erin pulled away once he calmed down. She moved to sit behind him, letting him rest his head against her chest and allowing her shaking hands to find his shaking as well.
"They'll find us, Jay. I know they will." She ran a reassuring hand through his hair, leaving a kiss at the top of his head before they both drifted into unconsciousness.
