A knocking sound made her stand up from the couch. Making little jumps she reached the door. She looked through the peephole and was surprised to see Sheldon Hawkes standing on the hall.
"What are you doing here?" JJ said smiling.
"What are you doing without your wheelchair?" Hawkes asked lifting her from the floor and settling her back on the couch.
"Hey! I can walk!" JJ protested.
"No you can't! That's why you have the wheelchair and the crutches. Why don't you use them?" He asked sitting on the couch next to her.
"I hate the chair and my hand still hurts so I can't use the crutches." JJ said frustrated.
"Let me take a look at it." He said taking her left hand and examining it.
"What are you doing here, Hawkes?" JJ asked again.
"Flack found me in the locker room and asked me to come here and check on you." JJ sighed deeply. "He is just worried, JJ. It's normal."
"I know. It's just that he has just been at work for 3 hours and he already texted me 4 times, called my friends, and make you came here. He is being quite overprotective." She said rolling her eyes.
"Yeah, well, he really cares about you." She blushed and he continued. "Mac asked me to bring you some notes and books so you can study for your CSI exam. It's in a month so you need a lot to catch up."
"Just a month? Oh my God...I don't have time to be ready!" JJ said starting to freak out.
"You'll do just fine, JJ. You know all the basics it's just revising, and I'm sure that Flack would help you with all the law stuff." Hawkes said smiling before yawning.
"How many hours have you worked?" JJ asked him. He had bags under his eyes and he looked kind of pale.
"I took a double. I've been doing that a lot, lately."
"Do you want to crash in here? You can use the bed, I think I'm going to stay here studying."
"No, thanks, don't worry. I'll go home after I end examining you. So, can you lie down and lift your shirt so I can take a look at the stitches." He said standing up. JJ looked at him nervously and blushed. "JJ, I'm a doctor."
"I know, it's just that... It's...embarrassing?" She said blushing.
"Don't worry I won't tell Flack how good you look without a shirt on." He said winking at her, she rolled her eyes and lifted her shirt just enough to show him the scar. "The stitches look perfect. I think that they would be able to remove them in a couple of days."
"That's great because I have an appointment with the hospital doctor on Thursday." JJ said happily.
"I'm gonna go now. Don't use your hand. Keep taking the painkillers and put the cream every 6 hours and I'm sure that you would be back to the lab really soon." He said standing up.
"Thanks, Hawkes." She said smiling.
"No problem. Do you need anything before I leave?" He said and before she could answer the buzz sounded.
"Can you take this?" She asked.
"Of course." Hawkes went to the door and meet Sarah, Lizzy and Lane watching at him surprised.
"Well, well, well! Hello Doctor Hawkes!" Sarah said amused.
"Ladies." He said smiling and leaving the apartment.
Once the door was closed, the girls sit on the couch with JJ.
"Oh, Hudson, that guy is hot!" Sarah said giggling.
"Hawkes? I haven't noticed." JJ said smiling.
They all laughed and suddenly realised that Lane was very quiet.
"What's wrong, Lane?" Lizzy asked.
"I want to tell you something but I don't want you to be mad at me." Lane said embarrassed.
"What is it Lane? You are beginning to freak me out." JJ said worried.
"Oh no, Lane! Tell me you didn't." Sarah said looking at her angrily. Lane hide her head in her hands and began to talk.
"I met Jake in a party on Saturday."
"What Jake?" JJ asked confused.
"Your Jake." Sarah said pointing at JJ.
"Jake Stevenson? Jake the economics student? Jake The Jerk?" Lizzy said surprised and Lane nodded.
"What happened when I left?" Sarah asked.
"You were there?" Lizzy asked.
"Yeah..." Sarah answered sadly. "We went to the pre-exams party. I was talking with some friends from my biology class when I saw Lane getting a drink and Jake talking with her, but one of my friends was getting sick and I had to go out with her, when I came back they weren't there anymore, I texted her and she told me that she was alright."
"He was really great. Sweet and cute. He told me that he remembered me from the party we had at your apartment 2 years ago and that he thought that I was so beautiful and smart, that he wanted to talk with me since then but after what happened with you," Lane explained looking at JJ. "he didn't dare to do it. He said that he knew that he had acted badly with you and that he wanted to apologise to you but you haven't met in a long time and that you probably won't even listen to him. We were chatting and laughing and then he asked me if I wanted to keep talking in a quieter place."
"Tell me you don't go with him." Lizzy said angry.
"He took me outside and we got in his car." Lane said nearly whispering.
"Let me guess: He drove you to a beautiful spot in the middle of a forest where you could watch the stars." JJ, who had been listening silently, said.
"Yeah... How?" Lane said surprised.
"Because it's what he always does!" JJ shouted. "I don't want to be mad at you but you fell for his game like I did 3 years ago! He is going to use you like he did with me!"
"He told me that I was different not another girl he met on a party, that he felt that we had a connection, chem-"
"Chemistry, that you were soul mates. Right?" Lane stared at her surprised. "God, he did even use the same lame lines!" JJ said angry.
"Lane!" Lizzy shouted. "Tell me you didn't... go all the way with him, please." Lane buried her head in her hands and began to sob.
"I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch!" Sarah shouted standing up and pacing along the living room.
"Who are you gonna kill?" A male voice said from the apartment door. All four girls turned around to where the sound came from and saw Flack standing with a huge back of groceries."Woah girls! What's wrong?" He said when all of them looked at him, JJ seemed to be really angry and Lane had obviously cried.
"What are you doing here?" JJ asked calming down a little.
"I just thought that if you were going to study the whole day you would need some junk food. I bought M&M, Snickers, Maltessers and a lot of soda." He said in a low voice nearly whispering, afraid that they were going to attack him.
Seeing how they all relaxed a little, he walked to the couch and placed a kiss on top of JJ's head. "Thanks." She replied to his gesture.
"I'm gonna put the soda in the fridge and head back to the precinct. I'm still on the clock." Flack said walking to the kitchen still confused. When he closed the fridge door he found JJ leaning against the doorframe. "Everything alright with the girls?"
"Yeah... Well, no, but it's going to be ok." She answered. Flack saw that she wasn't using the crutches and gently lifted her and made her sit on the counter.
"Can I do something?" Flack said placing his hands in the counter one in each side of JJ's thighs.
"You already did." She answered cupping his face and smiling at him. She then hugged him tightly and sighed. "Thanks for being so awesome." She said still holding him.
"You ok?" He asked worried.
"I will be. Can you carry me back to the living room?" She asked after kissing him softly on the lips. He did as told and settled her on the couch.
"Girls, if you need me to kick some ass, just let me know, ok?" Flack said before opening the front door.
"Maybe we would take your word on that."Sarah said smiling lightly.
He just smiled and said, "Well, Jamie is gonna be a CSI soon, she could make it look like and accident." He made a short pause and said. "Take care of her and call me if any of you need anything." And then he was gone.
"He is really great." Lizzy said after a short silence. Everyone nodded and JJ blushed and smiled proudly. After a couple of minutes they decided to start studying and postponed the vengeance plans for later.
