Before the storm- 5

So I'm still full of good ideas 

Disclaimer - I still have no claim over this awesome show….

Jenn threw her pen down on her table for the hundredth time in aggravation. Her boss saw the look on her face "Ms. Quinn everything alright?" She lifted her head and smiled.

" Oh just trying to squeeze a few more people in at tables. You know keeping people happy. I finished looking at those blue prints. They are over on that chair " she pointed.

Mr. Allen picked up the folders and looked them over. "Thanks you Jenn, and I do look forward to seeing you at the wedding. I am thrilled you are getting married to Jay. I have to say though I was sure it would have been you and Scoffield, it's too bad about him, he was a talented young man."

Jenn felt a lump forming in her throat " No one could have been more surprised than me sir. I better get going to lunch, I have floral arrangements to finish up." Mr. Allen nodded and left her office.

His own thoughts of Michael Scoffield. The young man who had won over every one. Just one day went crazy and robbed a bank. Some thought Michael couldn't handle, his brother being on death's row. It didn't make any sense to him. Michael was a bright man, a great guy, had his whole future in front of him. He had Jenn, who he just loved. Then one day came in to resign went to the bank and was arrested.

Something was wrong, it seemed too planned. But after a week the office quieted down about the whole thing and went back to normal. Now Jenn was getting married to Jay Reynolds out of the blue. Mr. Allen shook his head as he walked to his office to take care of a few calls.

Jenn sat back in her chair wondering just how messed up her life was, when Ned popped in. " Hey you want to go to lunch?" She looked up at him through her glasses. She was going to say no but seeing how she was going to be harboring criminals soon she might as well go to lunch with her secretary.

" Sure Ned, give me a few minutes to clean up this mess and we will go"

Ned smiled and closed the door to her office.

Good to her word Jenn took Ned to lunch. They went to a small bistro up the road. Ned sat there picking at his spinach salad not really eating it. Jenn put down her club sandwich "Okay girly- man spill. What is wrong? You wanted to come to lunch and now you aren't eating."

Ned put down his fork and stared at his plate " Look Jenn you are my boss and I enjoy working for you. I want to let you know that some guy working for the secret service asked me to keep an eye on you."

Jenn's eyes darted around the bistro "What the hell?" she gasped as she stood up. Ned reached out to touch her arm; she jerked back her arm. Ned stood up aiming a gun at her " Ned! What are you doing?"

Ned looked nervously around " Jenn, you should have never hooked up with Michael. I told the agent that Michael used to work here with you, why did you say Lincoln was your brother?"

Jenn could tell Ned was getting antsy " Ned, look I can explain everything" Ned started to get a crazed look.

"What are you going to do shoot me Ned, there are too many people around" Ned pulled the trigger, the bullet exploded out of the muzzle, launched through the air, tore through skin, muscle, tissue, and bone then lodged itself into the stop sign.

Jenn was thrown back, hitting her head on the ground, she heard Ned yelling "Oh my god, oh my god" then a zing and saw him land open eyes on the ground. That was the last thing she remembered as a calming blackness came over her.

Nick, watched Veronica pace nervously in the small motel rooms " Ronny I'm sure it will be fine. Jenn is at the hospital getting stitched up. That Ned guy is dead. No one is going to believe his rankings before he shot her."

Veronica looked over at LJ, who also was watching her pace " Veronica, Nick is right."

" I know, I just hate to have to tell Michael, Jenn was shot" Her cell began to chirp "It's Michael" she looked at Nick.

Nick picked it up " Hello, Michael, oh she is unavailable at the moment. Listen we have some bad news." Michael felt his heart drop into his stomach " What is it?"

Nick filled him in on the recent events "Michael, you'll have to sit tight or spring early." Michael told him to get her married ASAP and he'd met them in Aruba" the line went dead. Nick placed down the cell " It is still a go. We have to get Jay to Jenn soon. Where is he?"

Jayson sat across from his Godmother Caroline Reynolds "So how are your campaigns going" he asked.

Caroline studied her favorite godchild " It should be going well, why do you ask, and how is Jenn doing. When I heard that perfect woman of yours was shot. I was horrified to hear the news."

Jay was getting a sickening feeling "Jenn, was shot in the shoulder, but is doing quite well. We are still getting married as planned." Jay finished his glass of wine "Caroline, it is getting late. I really should be getting home."

She nodded "I'm glad we had dinner tonight and I'm sure the wedding will be wonderful " Jay smiled at his godmother kissed her cheek and left to go see Jenn.

Thankfully the lights were dimmed as Jenn opened one eye and then the other. She turned her head and saw Missy sitting in the chair next to her. Missy smiled and moved her chair closer to her friend.

" Hey Sunshine, how do you feel?"

Jenn smirked" Like I've been shot. When can I leave?"

Missy moved closer " In the morning. Then it's on to your wedding. Which what is all that about?" Jenn pressed her healthy hand to her forehead "Ugh, I don't even want to talk about it. Did you get my dress?"

" Yes, and mine and your brother's tux". Missy watched her stretch " So why do you think Ned went all crazy Jenn" Jenn yawned her answer "I'm not sure but he knew something was up".

The door opening caught their attention. Jay smiled " Sorry to startle you ladies."

" Hey, my husband to be."

Jay took Missy's spot as she bid them good night.

" So you are out in the morning, then go get your hair done and go to the Church to get married."

Jenn smiled as he rattled off the schedule " I think that about covers it, Go home and get some sleep" Jay brushed her hair back " This sucks that you got hurt and I spent most of the day talking to Michael trying to calm him down some what".

Jenn sighed as Jay left. She lay her head back on the pillow. Closed her eyes hoping she would be the only causality in this plan.

Across Chicago, Michael lay in his cot, running the plan through his head. He listen to Sucre's breathing as he slept. He rolled over, sat up, and walked to the cell door. He knew he had to get some sleep, but now he knew Jenn was a target. He found it hard to sleep.

AS he looked at the other cells of sleeping convicts except one. His beady little eyes stared right back at Michael. He would have to keep an eye on T-Bag; the man gave him the creeps.

That is all I have for now…
