Jordan- 14

After blowing up at Jay, Jordan had completely cut the team off she'd also cut off Will and Natalie. She ignored all their calls and text messages, the teen meant what she had said. When she'd go to the District she'd ignore everyone except her father, Trudy, and Alvin, the teen even ignored Erin the only other person she confided in.

They all had tried to talk to her but she said nothing, it all went through one ear and out the other. Jordan couldn't trust hardly anyone in her life right now, the only few people she trusted were her father, brother, Alvin, and Trudy.

The abuse from Michael kept getting worse, Jordan was just close to snapping on Michael. On everyone but she never did.

Jordan headed to the District one day, Michael hadn't found her yet which was a good sign. She was right around the corner from the District, as fast as she could she hurried down the street her backpack fell off and some of her stuff had fell out.

"Dammit". She mumbled.

Gathering up all her book she saw a shadow in front of her, her heart raced faster in her chest thinking it was Michael. When she looked up it was Adam, sighing a breath of relief she continued picking up her stuff.

"What's up Adam". Jordan tried to keep her voice steady.

"You ok kiddo?" Adam asked.

"I'm fine".

"You sure-" He was cut off by the teen's harsh words.

"I can see Jay never gave you guys the memo, so I'm gonna say it again. It's no longer you're concerns to worry about me, any of you. I don't need you guys to look out for me, protect me, any of it. It's no longer any of your jobs. Don't talk to me, don't ask about me, stay out of my business and more importantly stay the hell out of my life. I'm cutting you guys out of my life I suggest you all do the same. When I'm here don't talk to me, the only people I need are my dad, Alvin, and Trudy, that's it. I don't need you guys anymore I can take care of myself like I've been doing the past few months, you all can go to hell for all I care. Just leave me alone".

After that Jordan headed inside and up to the squad, Adam remained outside he felt something wet on his cheeks he wiped away the tears. What was going on with Jordan? Why was she cutting them all of them off? This wasn't his partner in crime he knew, he and Jordan could be inseparable at times. They did a lot together, pulling pranks, going to ball games, she was the little sister he never had. Now that she has changed she was secretive, pissed, jumpy, scared, he may have only known her for a few years but in that short amount of time she wormed her way into his heart.

The fourteen year old may have given up on everyone in her life but they'll be damned if they gave up on her. They were family and whether she liked it or not they were gonna help her.

Jordan took her time getting up to the squad since she was still sore, she looked at everyone working. Everyone looked at her, Jay glanced at her and when her eyes met his she glared at him. Going to the lounge she slammed the door.

"What the hell is going on with her". Antonio said.

Jay looked down sadly, he glanced to see that his boss wasn't there. This could have been his chance to say something.

"I may know what's wrong with her". Jay admitted.

Everyone looked over to Jay, Erin looked to him in shock. How did he know but she didn't?

"What's going on with her then?" Erin asked.

"A couple days ago Will called me, Jo went to Me she was beat to hell and covered in blood. They said it was hard to get the full story out of her, they told me that they suspected her boyfriend did it. They think Michael is beating her".

They all looked in disbelief and anger. This would confirm all their suspicious. Why she was scared. Why she was jumpy. Why she was secretive.

"If this is true, why didn't she say anything". Antonio replies, his voice hard.

" I don't know only she knows and she won't talk to any of us".

"Why". Kevin said.

"After Will called and I showed up, Jo flipped completely and she went off on me. Told me that she's no longer our concern that we don't have to watch or protect her anymore. Don't talk to her anymore. Stay out of his business and life. Told all of us to go to hell".

They were all saddened to hear that, none of them is liking this change that Jordan is going through. It's breaking them now.

"There's no way she said that". Erin spoke, her voice full of sadness and disbelief.

"I heard everything she said Erin, she meant every word of it. She won't answer our calls or text, she won't answer Will or Natalie, nobody from 51 heard from her. The only ones she'll talk to are Voight, Al, and Platt, that's it".

"I'll talk to her".

" Erin you'll make things worse, you'd be adding fuel to the fire". Antonio tells her

Ignoring her friend's words she headed to the lounge. Jordan heard the door open glancing for a moment she saw her sister, she growled a bit as Erin sat down.

"Jordy, is Michael abusing you?" Erin asked.

All the fibers in Jordan's body wanted her to say yes and come clean but she still wasn't risking her family.

"No he's not". Jordan said viciously.

"Jo if he is doing anything to you, tell me".

Slamming her book shut Jordan looked over at her sister. "Michael didn't do anything to me, he never hit me. He never did anything to me. Leave it alone and leave me alone".

Gathering up her stuff the fourteen year old put her backpack on and stormed out.

"Where are you going?"

"Home at least that way no one can bother me there".

Jordan walked past everyone, they wanted to chase after her but not when she's like this they'd be adding fuel to a working fire. Erin ran out as they all watched as the teen went down the stairs.

"Why aren't any of you going after her?" Erin asked.

"We don't wanna poke the bear". Kevin answered.

"How do we help her if she doesn't ask for it or doesn't want it?" Mouse asked.

"We help her if she wants it or not". Erin defended.

"Look, why don't you and I go talk to her". Antonio suggested.

"Let's go".

The two left the squad going to Hank's house. Jordan had a good head start if any of them follow her, so far she was in the clear of Michael. Nowhere to be seen, nowhere to be heard at the moment. Maybe she was lucky for the day.

It took her about fifteen minutes to get home, she hurried inside and locked all the doors. Hank was at his social club so he wouldn't be home for a while, Justin wasn't due to come in for at least a couple of hours, she was alone. The teen ran up to her room and slammed her door.

She took a picture off her shelf, it was a picture of her and Michael on their first date. Her lib wobbled as she looked at it, Jordan saw how happy she was and in a matter of months she went from being happy to being depressed and miserable. As hard as she could she threw the picture on the floor watching the glass shatter and the wooden frame break.

A moment later she destroyed her bookcase causing all the pictures, books, and other things to fall and break. The whole time she was screaming and crying. She was tired of it. Tired of everyone hovering over her. Tired of Michael and the consistent abuse. Tired of all of it.

Once she was finished she heard knocking on the door, going to her brother's room the teen grabbed his metal baseball bat going down the stairs. Holding the bat in the air she made her way to the door, Jordan wasn't expecting anybody so she wasn't taking any chances.

"Who is it?" Jordan called.

"It's Antonio and Erin, open the door kiddo". Antonio replied.

Dropping the bat she went over and opened the door, when she opened the door she glared at the two detectives.

"What do you want?"

"Were worried about you". Erin tells her.

"Like I told Jay and Adam, I'm not your concern anymore you can stop. Stop acting like you care because you don't ok, nobody cares about me anymore so just stop. I don't need anyone looking out for me anymore, I don't need you guys anymore. Don't talk to me, just leave me alone, stay out of my business and stay out of my life. Just go away".

"Jordan-" Antonio started but was met by the door.

Jordan closed the door and locked it, sliding down the back of it she pulled her knees to her chest.

"Sweetie please let us help you!" Erin called.

"Jo if something is going on tell us, all we want is to help. We can't unless you talk to us, if you're worried about it getting back to your dad we won't tell him". Antonio says next.

"Go away! Leave me alone!" Jordan yelled.

After a moment they left, Jordan went to grab her brother's bat and sat on the couch. She grabbed a pillow and started sobbing into it. The teen cried out all of her emotions and her pain that had been building the past few months, she wanted to be held by someone but there was no one there.

Justin arrived to his father's house with Olive and their young son, Daniel. He unlocked the house the first thing he heard was crying and knew where it was coming from. The elder man looked back to his wife.

"Take Daniel upstairs, I gotta see what's wrong with Jo". Justin tells Olive.

"Ok". Olive said.

She took their young son upstairs while Justin went over to his young sister, Jordan was so wrapped up in crying that she didn't hear her brother come in.

"Jo Jo". Justin said gently.

The fourteen year old looked to see her older brother without a second thought she jumped her brother in a hug. Burying her face into his neck sobbing uncontrollably, she gripped his shirt tightly in her fist.

"Hey hey it's alright Jo, everything's gonna be ok".

"N-no it's not!"

"It's alright now, you're ok. I'm right here".

Jordan rested her cheek on her brother's shoulder, she couldn't hold this secret in much longer it would be a matter of time before it came out. At the moment she was safe. She was with her brother. She'd always be safe with him. Besides Hank, Justin was her protector. He'd never let anything happen to his sister and if he ever found out what Michael did to his sister the elder man would pound the teen boy into the pavement.

Justin rubbed soothing circles on her back hoping to calm her, her cries and sobs turned into soft hiccups. He looked down at his sister he pulled away from the hug and saw the old bruises on her face, he rolled up the sleeves on her shirt. He was pissed, someone was hurting his baby sister and he was going to hurt that someone.

"Jo Jo, who did this?"

"Don't make me say".

"Hey I won't tell dad".

"I'm glad you're home Justie".

The fourteen year old curled into her brother's side gripping his shirt, her head rested on his shoulder. Justin brushed her hair back like he did when she was younger.

"Whatever's going on you're safe Jo Jo, I won't let anything bad happen to you ever again. I promise".

"I love you Justin".

Justin kissed his sister's head. "I love you too squirt".

Jordan was able to fall into a peaceful her fingers still gripping her brother's shirt, Justin looked down to see his sister fast asleep. When he saw the bruises and scars he was furious, when he got a hold of the person who'd been hurting his sister that would be the end of them. They'll wish they never laid a hand on his sister.
