All night Eddie and Jamie were awakened by Teddy's screaming. He kept dreaming not just of the blue mist, but of Joe's assassination. He kept sobbing about seeing the guy go "boom." They were exhausted waking up to comfort the scared boy. They both shuffled in the kitchen going straight for the pot of coffee.
"This can't go on.." Eddie replied. "It can't. He knows how Joe died, exactly how he did it."
Jamie rubbed his eyes, holding the cup, "I know Eddie and I agree. It's to much for him. We have to call Dr Duc and find out what we have to do. Dad is going to call a priest today and have him bless the house."
She nodded, "He is sound now, a three year old needs sleep, he needs rest, he is so little..." eddie burst into tears.
He set the cup aside and took her into his arms, "Oh Eddie. We will call the doctor after breakfast and do whatever he says. We'll help our Teddy."
"Call Dr. Duc, talk to him..."
Jamie promised to do just that and he did over their coffee. He turned the phone on so Eddie could hear too. "Its escalating her, Dr. Duc," he replied. "He is seeing my brothers murder and talking about a blue mist..." Jamie listened.
"We will need to hurry up his protection practices. Are you able to come in today or I can come to your house," Dr Duc replied. "One of the girls saw a dark presence around Teddy last night, an attachment. She sketched it, perhaps you can identify it."
They agreed to meet the doctor to help with the picture and in turn he teach Teddy how to protect himself. When Jamie tried to call out of work though, things got dicey. "We have cases that need your attention. You can't keep taking off as you please. Take off again and you won't have this job."
Jamie sighed, "Okay, I'll be there in an hour." He needed the work to pay for everything.
"Jamie no we need you here for this. You promised," Eddie shook her head at him. Her eyes rounded pleasingly.
"I need to work, I need to keep my job. You need to do this with dad or wait until I'm done with work and have the doc come here later on," Jamie sighed torn wanting to be with his family but needing to work.
Eddie twirled the ring on her finger slowly sniffling, "Call up the doctor and have him come later. We need you here too for this Jamie, we need both of you."
"I know," he replied. "I know but we also need money and food on this table and that means I can't be fired."
She bit her lip nodding, stood up and looked at him with watery eyes. All this with the kids, nightmares and Jamie not being home was to much at once. "I'll call the doctor and see if he can come by after dinner. Have a good day at work Jamie."
Jamie kissed her, feijg so much pressure building he didn't known where to turn.
Lois saw Jamie at his desk pushing away at his work. He looked exhausted so she checked on her young colleague. "Hey Jamie, how's everything going," she asked softly
"it's a nightmare, he sighed. "My son is being tortured, my wife is upset and I might lose my job."
Lois pressed her lips together, "Wow I'm so sorry Jamie. Things aren't any better with your boy huh?"
"We took him to the parapsychology institute, he is extensively gifted. Very much." Jamie felt his chest begin to tense, the pressure building.
She nodded once, "Okay gifted how? Did they say?"
"Pressure," he replied. "In my chest..." he couldn't even speak.
Lois' eyes widened, pushing off the desk, "Breath Jamie nice, deep breaths. I'm calling for an ambulance ." He nodded holding his chest, he looked at her before his eyes closed.
He could still hear voices though very faintly urgently talking. The pressure took over and soon he felt himself being moved. His boss had come out or his office, he could see how stressed the young man was and regretted forcing him to come to work. The two stayed with Jamie until an ambulance arrived to take him to the hospital. "Jamie, take care of herself. I'm sorry," his boss whispered.
He nodded and shut his eyes. He heard Lois next to him as they drove but he couldn't say anything back. All he could do was lay helpless as the medic talked to Lois and Louis to Jamie.
When he got at the hospital, Jamie had Lois call Frank. She took the number and called while the doctors examined Jamie. Frank picked up the phone, "Jamie, what is wrong son?" Lois spoke softly, 'me. Reagan?"
The older man felt his heart jump up into his throat, "Yes, this is Mr Reagan. Who is this?"
"Lois Jenkins I work with Jamie. He was just taken to the hospital."
Frank took a shaky breath, "I'm on my way. Thank you for letting me know Lois." Frank felt it prudent to let it go with Jamie for now he could always call Eddie if things were very serious but he had a feeling they weren't. He made up an excuse to leave, hailing a cab to the hospital.
Jamie was better by the time Frank got there resting with oxygen and a pulse ox. He went straight to the bed next to the only other person there, who he guessed was the coworker. "Lois? I'm Frank Reagan, thank you so much for calling. How is he?"
"He is better, hes settle down now but they are waiting in la a for him"
Sighing quietly Frank reached a hand out cupping it over Jamie's, his voice hoarse, "What happened Lois?"
"He just started having trouble breathing and was really out of it."
He nodded grateful while holding his youngest son's hand gently. "Jamie, I'm here son."
"Dsd, did you tell Eddie? Please say no, she is so upset ready..."
"No, I figured she wouldn't have to know until after I check on you myself," Frank replied softly.
"Good, she is so stressed out already and I'm not being s good husband.."
Frank shook his head, "You are doing the very best that you can Jamie. You need to work so bills are paid, you are providing for tour family. I understand this is hard on Eddie and she looks to you for support. You are trying to do both."
"She is getting angry with me for not being three for Teddy,, but it isn't me he wants anyway," Jamie rested his head against the pillow.
He nodded, "I know he wants Eddie when he's afraid but maybe Eddie needs you so she can be there for him. Right now you just need to rest and let me call the doctor to see what is going on. Lay back and rest now."
Jamie laid back, trusting his father to know the right thing to do. Outside in the hall Frank talked to Jamie's doctor. "Looks like a panic attack," he replied. "I want him to rest a bit more than he can fo home and take it easy."
Frank shook his hand, "Of course, thank you Doctor. " He went back inside to his son quietly.
"You need to rest," Frank replied. "I'll speak to your boss and him know what's what. If he fires you, oh well, you can find a better job. You need to worry about your health. Not just doctor's orders but my own."
"In an hour or so," Frank replied. You need more rest." He sighed, staring up at the ceiling.
Meanwhile, back at home, Eddie was getting the house ready for Dr. Duc. "Mommy, why you clean up so much," Teddy asked after watching her go from room to room making sure everything was clean for their guest.
"Because Dr. Duc is coming over tonight," Eddie replied. "He's coming to visit you."
His eyes rounded, "Why is doctor coming to see Teddy? He never comes to the house. We go to his. "
"Yes we do but today Dr Duc wanted to visit us okay? Can you go play with sissy with mommy cleans up," Eddie asked. He wrapped his arms around her leg then ran off to the living room giggling.
Promptly at seven the bell rang startling Christa who started to cry while Eddie went to answer the bounced her on her lap to calm her down. Dr. Duc was there with jenna. She had a sketch in her hand.
Eddie brought them in, introducing them to Frank. Teddy looked up smiling warmly, "Hi Dr Duc, hi Jenna. I helping grandpa with sissy."
"Good boy," he replied. "Very good boy, helping. I heard you had a rough time sleeping."
Teddy reached out for Jenna, he liked her. "Bad bad scaring Teddy."
"I know, well we are going to help you out,' she replied. "Do you know about this man? Do you know who he is?"
"Scary, big man bad eyes, dark eyes. He big, lot of hair," Teddy said.
"Do you know his name? Do any of you recognize this man? Hes a modern spirit."
Teddy shook his head, "He here a lot always trying to scare Teddy. Older man, very big , lot of hair mean."
Jamie shook his head, "I'm trying to think of who Teddy might be seeing."
Frank looked at the sketch and sighed, "He's familiar. That's Sonny, its Sonny Malevsky."
