Saved - Chapter 6 - Becker's POV

I was rudely woken from my sleep by my alarm going off loudly, I turned it off and swung my legs over the side of the bed and going into the shower. I only had a quick one then I went into the kitchen and made myself some breakfast and whilst I waited for breakfast to cook I got dressed. Just as I came out of my bedroom after getting dressed I seen that breakfast was ready so I gulped that down as quickly as I could before grabbing my jacket and keys and heading out the door to work.

I got to work as soon as I could and when I got there I went straight to the ADD to speak to Jess about the Lucas thing but when I got there Jess was no where to be found and the person who was doing the night shift wanted to go home, I went and found Abby but she said she hadn't seen or heard from Jess today either. I had this bad feeling in the pit of my stomach that something was really wrong so I rushed to Lester's office and went in without knocking and he was about to tell me to get out but I started talking first.

"Sir Jess is missing" I stated and he started to look worried "She's been seeing Lucas Williams and yesterday I found all these marks on her and when I confronted her she told me Lucas did them. I was going to go after him but Jess begged me to give her twenty fours and I agreed, I came to find her this morning to see if she had gotten rid of him but she's not here" I explained and he nodded "Sir you know as well as I do that she wouldn't just not show up, the girl calls if she's going to be one minute late" I told him and he seemed to be listening.

"OK I want Matt, Abby, Connor, Emily and three of your best men in here in five minutes! We are going to get Jess back and we are going to lock up that scum bag, I'll make it your personal goal to get him… don't panic if he falls over a few times on his way in… or accidentally on purpose gets hit by a car" He said, I gave him a small smile and left to tell the others.

Half an hour later me, Abby, Connor were in a truck on our way to Lucas' place, Matt and Emily were on their way to Lucas' garage and three of my best men Jenkins, Coles and Henderson were in another truck on their way to Lucas' home by the sea. I had explained the situation to all of them when they got to Lester's office and Abby seemed angry at me, honestly I wouldn't blame her if she blamed me for this… I blame myself for it. I should have just gone after Lucas the second I knew for sure what was going on and then he would never have hurt or taken Jess. This is a reminder to myself that if Jess ever asks me to hold back again then to not listen to her, I was going to have to spend the rest of my life making this up to her "Abby I'll get her back" I told her.

"You focus on Lucas… I'll get Jess" She stated with venom in her voice "You should have gone after him yesterday when you found out" She told me. There was nothing I could say to her to make her forgive me so I stayed quiet and I think she appreciated that.

Not long later we arrived at Lucas' house which was a small house that was just outside of London, there was only three other houses in the small close. Connor went around the back in case he tried to escape and I went around the front with Abby, I knocked on the door as Abby looked to see if there was any movement but she shook her head at me. I kicked the door in and Abby rushed up the stairs and I went and looked around the ground floor of the house and let Connor in from the garden "There's no one up there" Abby said as she walked into the living room where me and Connor were.

"Does he have an attic?" Connor asked.

"I didn't even look" Abby said and went back up the stairs with Connor.

I opened the cupboard door under the stairs but there was nothing in there but coats, I was about to go upstairs to join Abby and Connor when I heard a muffled cry and it sounded close. I knew Jess wasn't in any of the rooms down here and she wasn't in any upstairs, it was too close for it to be in the loft so it must be… beneath me "She's down here!" I shouted up the stairs. I went out in to the garden and seen some stairs in the corner leading into the basement and I went down and kicked the door in, I held my EMD up high and eventually found a light. I turned it on and seen Lucas standing with Jess in front of him, he had one arm around her middle and another one around her neck with a knife to her neck. She was crying and had blood falling down her face, I looked her over and seen blood splatters all over her "You OK?" I asked her.

Lucas whispered something to her making her whimper "She's not talking to you!" He shouted at me, Connor and Abby came and stood next to me also with their EMDs raised "You two outside, this is between me and him" Lucas said, I nodded at them and they went back outside. Lucas held the knife up to Jess' throat tighter and dragged her backwards towards a chair where he tied her up "Put the EMD down" He ordered with the knife still to her neck. I put threw the EMD out of my reach and he went and retrieved it and threw them away from the both of us "The two of us are going to settle this once and for all… like men" He said removing his jacket.

This guy really wanted to fight me? Lucas approached me and went to throw a punch but I was to quick for him and he forgets that I work with him and taught him how to fight so I know what his strength is too. He went to throw another punch but I grabbed him and shoved him up against one of the beams that was holding the house up, he was against it and I blocked him. I punched him in the face six or seven times before punching him in the stomach where he fell to the floor, I kicked him in the stomach and he curled up into the foetus position. He tried to trip me up but I seem his feet moving, I rolled him onto his back and put one leg either side of him and punched him repeatedly in the face until he was unconscious.

I went to utie Jess and I had only managed to get one of her hands free when she screamed at me to turn around, Lucas came towards me and managed to get me in the shoulder with the knife which made me call out in pain. I looked down for a millisecond and he came at me again but I managed to get hold of his arm that time and I took the knife off him and used his own weapon against him, I got him also in the shoulder but he kicked me behind my knee which made me stop for a second and that was all he needed to get the upper hand. He was on top of me and he started throwing punches at me, I threw the knife towards Jess hoping that she would pick it up and set herself free.

One minute me and Lucas are on the floor fighting and then the next he's laying on the floor next to me with a knife in his throat I looked up and seen Jess standing there looking traumatised. I got up and hugged her, I wrapped my arms around her protectively and she started crying into my chest "It's over now… I promise it's over" I told her. Connor and Abby came in and I handed Jess over to Abby before going over to Lucas, I took the knife out of his throat and checked for a pulse and wasn't all that surprised when he didn't have one and I wasn't going to do anything to bring him back "Dirt bag" I muttered and walked out of the basement.

When I got outside Jess rushed into my arms again and once again I wrapped my arms around her protectively "Becker next time you want to go after someone then do it, don't let me talk you out of it. I'm so sorry that I caused all of this I should've just told you when it started" She cried.

"Jessica you have nothing to be sorry for, that idiot is gone now forever and you don't have to worry about him" I told her.

"But I killed him. What's going to happen to me?" She asked scared.

"Matt will have to interview you about what happened on tape and you have to be completely honest OK? You have to tell him everything and keep nothing out, I'm sure that nothing will happen to you. Lester might make you see a physiatrist or something just so they know you're not crazy but that's all" I told her and she nodded but still seemed nervous "Look he kidnapped and beat you, it was self defence" I said.

I was sitting in Lester's empty office watching Matt interview Jess on the security footage and I was shaking from anger "OK Jess, after he took you into the house what did he do?" Matt asked her.

"He… He took me down to the basement, he tied me to a chair that was in the back left corner and he started asking me why I didn't love him" She replied.

"What did you tell him?" Matt asked her.

"That I was in love with someone else. He slapped me across the face so hard that the chair fell over" She told him.

"What happened next?" He asked.

"He picked the chair up and started shouting in my face, calling me every name under the sun. He kissed me and I bit his lip to get him off" She said and I seen her wipe a tear "When I bit him it made him the angriest he's ever been… he slapped me again and again and again, the chair hit the floor and he kicked me three times in my stomach" She explained.

After Matt had interviewed her I went and met them outside the interview room where I grabbed her and wrapped my arms around her, she started crying more and I decided to take her home so she wouldn't be interrogated by anyone.

When we got to her place she said that she wanted to go to bed so I walked her to her room and whilst she changed into her pjs I made her a glass of water, I went back into her room and handed her the glass which she thanked me for before sipping some of it then she put it on the side. I placed a kiss on her forehead and was about to leave when she grabbed my arm "Becker please don't leave me" She pleaded and I nodded. I took my shoes and jacked off before climbing into bed beside her, I laid down and we laid on our sides so we could face each other "Becker I… I want you to know that I love you and I only dated him because I thought you wasn't into me" She confessed.

"You thought I wasn't into you? Are you crazy? Jess I am more then into you… I love you too and I'm sorry for what happened, if I had just gone after him yesterday then none of this would've happened" I explained to her.

"I asked you to let me sort this and although I didn't you let me make that choice. You didn't tell me I couldn't do it and ignore me and go after him but you I wasn't being controlled… now I don't want to talk about him anymore" She said.

She shuffled over and I wrapped my arms around her as she placed her head and hand on my chest "I love you" I said.

"I love you too" She looked up at me and I leaned down, our lips met in a brief, sweet and romantic kiss.

So Becker saved Jess and they both admitted that they loved one another, I can't think of a happier ending for the two of them. Thank you for all of the support on this story it really means a lot x
