I don't own anything that Dick Wolf owns
Right now Tim had little trust in Hawkins and the detectives. He was getting restless, he felt like he couldn't wait any longer. If he was going to die so be it, but he wanted to see Amanda one last time.
He knew he was guided by his guilt, but he didn't care.
He overheard two other detectives, he though they were talking about Amanda, they mentioned something about Bellevue so he figured she was there. He looked at the office again and made his way out.
The elevator was on another floor so he decided to take the stairs.
He caught a cab to the hospital but the entire way there he had a bad feeling.
Jeffries got a call from Jesse when he was parked near the station. He told him he had a feeling that Tim is there. He also asked him to wait, let him get him away from there. Of course Jeffries agreed, and of course it was a lie.
He waited too long for this, he wanted to see him. No one was expecting him there, he was dead. Jeffries could see Jesse's car so he stayed away from it. He saw him getting into the building after a while.
But only a couple minutes later somebody walked out of there, it was Tim Rollins.
Jeffries was surprised by this, Jesse just got into the building to there was no way he saw him. But it didn't really matter. He got his chance.
Of course he wasn't going to kill him in the middle of the street, he liked freedom, and he wanted Tim to suffer. Prison was no fun, and Rollins was the reason he got there, so he had to pay.
He saw Tim get into a cab and followed him in his car. It didn't take him too long to realize where he was going, he wanted to see his daughter.
As Jesse made his way through the squad room he couldn't see Tim anywhere. He wasn't worried about that though, they could be hiding him. But it didn't matter, he knew how to get to him.
"He doesn't know we know" Liv said "and we need to keep it like that" she turned to look at Fin "go out and stay with Tim" she told him.
Fin nodded and walked out of the office, he walked past Jesse without even looking at him but then he looked for Tim.
But he wasn't there.
Jesse knocked on the door and opened it.
"Sergeant Benson?" he asked and she nodded "you must be Deputy Hawkins" he added looking at him
"I'm Chief Deputy U.S Marshal Jesse Bean, from the Atlanta office" he shook Hawkins' and then Liv's hand.
"It's nice to meet you" she said with a smile.
"It is" he smiled back "I guess I'm here for the same reason Deputy Hawkins is here, looking for Mr. Tim Rollins"
"I had no idea I was getting help" Hawkins smiled "and from a Chief Deputy that's a…"
"Well" Jesse didn't let him finish "you know how it is, a witness is missing and everyone is on their toes, it's been a while and we still have no news so I thought I'll check it out, maybe I could help"
Liv's phone buzzed and she looked at it, it was a message from Fin.
"So you know where he is?" Jesse asked.
"We have no idea" Liv said, both Hawkins and Jesse were surprised by her answer, and for the same reason. Since Tim was at the station they couldn't hide him.
Liv placed her phone on the desk close to Hawkins so he could read Fin's text.
It said "Rollins is MIA".
Fin couldn't find Tim anywhere, he'd searched everywhere and asked around but no one seemed to see him. He texted Liv he was gone and then he called Nick.
Crap.
That's the only thing Nick could think about after Fin's call. If Tim was really on his way to the hospital and the man who'd set this whole thing up may be following him, then Amanda was still in danger, and there was no way he would let anything else happen to her.
"So you still don't know where he is?" Jesse asked, they had no reason to lie to him.
"I got some leads" Hawkins said "I should really check it out" he stood up and walked towards the door "I'll keep you posted"
"So he didn't come by here looking for his daughter?" Jesse asked once Hawkins was out of the office.
"Not that I know" Liv answered "but I didn't get a chance to ask her"
"I've heard about what happened" he said, trying to sound concerned.
"We're not sure" she said and he nodded. They both tried to read each other and neither said anything for a while.
Fin opened the door "excuse me sergeant" he said "it's about the Parker case" he said.
"Excuse me" she said "if you could wait out side for a moment" she smiled at him "we have an open case and…"
"Sure" he smiled, he was about to leave when his eyes fell on something lying on her desk.
"I called Amaro" Fin said after Jesse left "he'll be on the lookout"
"Good" Liv said and stood up, she looked down and saw the page from the newspaper "damn" she said and looked at Fin.
"What?"
"I think he saw it" she showed him the page.
Liv was right, Jesse did see it.
He tried to call Jeffries but he didn't answer. Panic washed over him. They know everything, what if they already found him?
He had to get out of there. He saw Hawkins looking at him, and the sergeant walked out of the office, they all knew.
He tried to walk calmly out of there. How could it be? He tried so hard to make sure no one would ever found out, but they all know now.
And Jeffries, they found him?
He let him down, he's never going to have the thing he wanted most, his revenge. The only person who ever cared about him – and he let him down.
He was useless, all this years wasted.
He failed.
He was a failure.
Jesse could feel them following him. He walked faster, not trying to be calm anymore. Finally he was out of the building, his car wasn't far.
He just needs to get inside it.
He opened the door, he could hear them calling him but he wasn't going to answer. He got in and tried to call Jeffries again, but he didn't pick up.
This is it, he thought, everything was over.
He took his gun and looked at it, they were getting closer now.
He closed his eyes "see you in hell dad" he whispered before he shot.
Fin and Hawkins drove to the hospital. Liv stayed at the precinct to handle the scene. They both knew it wasn't over yet, Jeffries was still out there and there was no way Fin would let him hurt Amanda.
But no matter how fast they were going it didn't feel fast enough.
"Excuse me" Tim walked towards the receptionist, she looked at him "I'm looking for Amanda Rollins" he said.
"And you are?" she asked while typing something.
"Her father" he smiled.
"She's in room 405" she smiled "you can go see her"
"Thank you" he walked to the elevator.
Jeffries was close enough so he could hear the room number, but he was far enough so Tim wouldn't see him.
He made his way to room 405. This could be a good place to start to make Mr. Rollins feel some pain.
So the next chapter is going to be the last one.
