Hey guys sorry it took a while to get this next chapter up, I had been working on some other stories. So anyway thanks for all your reviews keep them coming.
BANG!
The sound of the gunshot echoed through the hallways.
"Someone is hit" A nurse calls off to the side.
"Someone call security" Another person cries
"Get a doctor over here" The sounds of chaotic
"Coming through, coming through people move aside" A doctor says coming through the crowd. "OK let me see, can someone get a gurney over here please, we need to get her into the ER. Don't worry it's just a flesh wound but we need to fix it up. She passed out from fear."
A couple of workers run over with a gurney.
"On my count everyone" The doctor shouts "1.2.3! lift!" The men lift the wounded nurse off the floor and bring her to the ER."
Security run in then and go off in the direction Jake Waite has just ran in. (He froze a moment to take in what just happened before he ran)
Jamie and Jessica run after security followed by Caitie, Elizabeth Waite, Alex, Val, Tyler and Hank.
They turn the corner and see Jake Waite holding up his gun threatening to shot.
"Stay back! Stay back you hear? I swear I'll shoot" Jake shouts
"Calm down sir" One of the security guards coax
"NO! Go now!" Jake screams
"This is crazy" Jessica mutters
"I know" Jamie answers
"Come on Jamie" Jessica says and pulls him around the corner
"What are we doing?" Jamie asks
"Stopping Dad. I'm not going to let him get away with this anymore"
"Are you crazy?" Jamie exclaims "He has a gun!"
Jessica goes back into the room she was in before and goes to one of her bags and pulls something out. "So do I"
"Are you crazy? You've gone mad!" Jamie shouts
"So stay" Jessica says her eyes now ablaze "I'm not letting him ruin our lives again. EVER again."
"Fine I'm coming but I still think your crazy. Do you even know how to work that thing?"
"Oh course I do now come on"
Back in that hallway
"Mr. Waite please put the gun down" The guard is still trying
Caitie turns to Val "Hey where did Jamie and Jessica go?"
Val looks around "Yea where did they go"
"No I will not put the gun down!" Jake shouts then leaps forward and grabs Caitie and holds the gun to his head before he can cock it (get it ready to shoot) he hears CLICK!
Slowly he turns his head until he is face to face with Jessica who is holding a gun in his face. "Jessica" he says nervously "What are you doing?"
"Jessica put that gun down!" Elizabeth cries
"Let Caitie go Dad" Jessica says evenly
"And if I don't?" He challenges her
"Then you will find out if this gun is loaded." She tells him
Jake lets Caitie go and she runs into Jamie's arms.
"Everyone leave!" Jessica shouts "Now!"
Everyone leaves except Elizabeth, Jamie and the security guards
"I said everyone go, you too mom and Jamie"
"Jess-"
"GO!"
Jamie and Elizabeth leave. Jessica turns to the security guards. "I need you too go too"
"I wont leave but I will stay right around the corner" He tells her
He moves away
Jessica starts to walk around Jake.
"So what are you going to do? Shoot your own father?" He questions her
"Gee isn't that what you were planning on doing, coming in here and shoot me or Jamie or mom? Yea to bad that nurse got in the way right?" She takes a step closer. "Give me a good reason you don't deserve to die"
Jake looks at her helplessly unsure of what to say "What do you want from me?"
"What do I want? I want that year back when you took me away from my family!" Jessica shouts
"I am your family Jessica"
"No! No! your not your just the man who helped make me but there is no way in hell that your my father!"
"I am so your father I love you!"
"You have a real funny way of showing your love then" She takes a step closer "Maybe it runs in the family" She cocks the gun and puts her finger on the trigger
Jake squeezes his eyes shut
"POP" Jessica says softly.
Jake lets out his breath. "It was just a cap I knew you never could"
"I didn't cause I'm not like you and I will never sink down to your level of being." She stops and looks him in the eye "I hope you rot in jail, I'll be there to testify against you"
The security guard comes back and handcuffs Jake "You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to an attorney if you do not have one….."
Jessica walks back to her family and falls into Jamie's arms as he embraces her into a big hug "I'm proud of you Jessica"
"Excuse me but I need some information from all of you. Can you please come with me?"
The remaining Waites follow the security guard outside.
A few days later. At the courthouse the hearing is just about over (cause I didn't want to bore anyone with the details of a trial cause they are so long.)
"I hearby sentence you Jake Waite to a minimum of 10 years in prison with a chance of parole after 7 years. This court is now adjourned." The judge bangs his gravel then gets up and leaves.
Jamie and Jessica and Elizabeth all hug each other in joy.
"Come on" Elizabeth says tearfully (happy tears!) "Lets go out to celebrate."
They go out to dinner and for the first time in a while they can truly have a happy peaceful dinner without any worries.
That night at the Waite house, Elizabeth has gone out on some errands Jamie and Caitie are in Jamie's room listening to music. Jessica is watching T.V.
Ding Dong
"I wonder who it is so late at night." She checks her watch "OK I guess it's not that late it's only 10:00"
She opens the door to find Tyler standing there. "Hey" he says nerbously.
"Hi Tyler come in" She opens the door "What's up?"
"I just wanted to see how you were doing"
"I'm doing better then I have been in a long time" She smiles.
"That's great. I'm really happy for you. So uh are you going to come back to school?"
"Yup I am, I think I may even try out for a spot on the cheerleading squad just for piss Jamie off"
"Yea that will definitely do it"
Jessica laughs "Yea I think It will"
"So uh I guess I better go…" Tyler turns to leave
"Tyler wait….you want to come in and watch some T.V.?"
"Sure I'd love too."
They both go to the couch and sit down to watch some T.V."
Hey I hope you all liked it, I'm not sure if I will add anymore to this. Or just leave it like it is…..you tell me. Feedback please! R&R.
