"Charlie is M.I.A., Gideon is M.I.A. and Jesse Tyler is missing." Huck paced back and forth and kept repeating the sentence over and over again. The thirtieth time he stopped midway through his sentence and looked Quinn, "Penelope has him."
"Jesse?"
"She's coming for us." Huck said, he grabbed her hand and led her out the door. He hopped into his car and sped towards OPA. Quinn had never seen him like this, he was mumbling under his breath and he was sweating like he ran a marathon. Was he afraid? No, he couldn't be, Huck wasn't afraid of anyone. Then it must have been her that he was afraid for, he thought Penelope would do something to her now that she had Jesse.
"Everything is going to be fine." Quinn said as they rode the elevator up to OPA. Huck stepped inside and froze, Olivia had went home for the day and hadn't seen her car in the parking lot. Someone else was here and waiting on them. Huck pushed Quinn behind him and walked silently towards the door.
"Do come in, Mr. Huck." Huck and Quinn stepped inside the office, "We haven't seen each other in a while."
"You killed Charlie." Huck said and stepped inside. Jesse was leaning against Olivia Pope's desk and Penelope Smith was lying on the floor in cold blood. "And Penelope."
"Yes, he got in the way and so did she. Penelope had some crazy idea to run off together," Jesse smirked and then laughed, he looked to Quinn, "And somehow you get the girl."
"Jesse, I don't know what you think you're doing-"
"I'm getting rid of the evidence or at least making sure my alibi is covered. I know agents are looking for me this very second, so if you don't mind could you come over here Lindsay and take this gun." Huck reached for Quinn but she walked over towards him slowly, fixing her purse on her shoulder. "It's empty so don't try anything."
"Don't worry, I won't." Quinn took the gun from him and held it.
"Now that's better, and by the way, Mr. Huck." Jesse took his eyes off Quinn and she pulled out her own gun, the familiar black G30s. "What are you doing?" he asked, Quinn pointed the gun at him. "You're not going to kill me."
"No, but a flesh wound will do."
"Agent Charlie?" Command questioned, he wanted to know about everyone involved in this mission.
"Missing."
"Gideon Wallace?" He asked.
"Found in Rome with David Rosen."
"And their information?" Command asked.
"I pretended to be an anonymous source, I fed them enough information for them to think Jesse Tyler was the mastermind and it was a lucrative plan created by both Tyler and Chambers, sir."
"Good, good. I'll deal with Billy myself, soldier, good work."
"Thank you, Command."
"I guess I won't kill you after all." Huck watched the man walk down the street and wait on the corner for a black car, he stepped inside and disappeared down the dark and rainy street. Huck had been frightened when Command called him over the radio but he met with him as he planned. Penelope's murder had been hushed up and they buried her in an unmarked grave, there was still lots of paperwork to do but since Huck wasn't an official member of B613 anymore he didn't have to worry about that.
He was free for now.
"Something wrong?" Quinn asked as he walked inside their apartment.
"No, everything is fine for now." Huck sat down on the couch and she sat next to him, "I meant it."
"Meant what?"
"I start to think back to those letters, I may have lied about my name but I never lied in those letters. I told you the truth, I shouldn't have but I did. I felt like I had to, it only seemed fair."
"Had it not been for you and those letters, not to mention Olivia… I'd probably be in prison, but I don't care about those letters. I mean, I care but I care about you more." Quinn slipped her arm around his waist and rested her head against his shoulder. "It was your actions that mattered, it was always more than words, that's why I came to see you myself that first time."
"It's Sam's fault."
"She's always playing matchmaker, at least something good came out of it this time."
"This time?"
"There were others but they were… strange. Not my cup of tea."
"And I am?" he asked, he looked at her\ waiting on his answer.
"Of course you are, Huck."
"That's not my name." Huck said, he looked away. If they were going tos tart this relationship then it needed to be based on honesty and the truth. "My name is Javier."
"I like it, and I guess you can call me Lindsay from now on." He smiled, it was the beginning of something new and he felt content and hoped she felt it too.
Author's Note: ... And that's a wrap. I might come back to this story but I felt like I was seriously dragging my ass on this one and it was longer than I initially expected. Thanks for reading folks, leave me faves, follows and reviews. Sorry if the ending is too abrupt, I knew I could only keep dragging these characters, situations and plots out for so long until it was a yawn-fest .
