Chapter 3

Erin uses the back of her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead. Her legs ached and she had a headache but it was a sign of accomplishment. With that in mind, she steps off the treadmill and turns it off. She walks over to the punching bag where Jay was, sweaty and very handsome.

"Done already?" He teases. She quickly socks him in the shoulder, it hurt more than he thought it would. He gives her a look but she simply laughs and gently nudges his shoulder with hers, a genuine smile stretching across her face.

"Just for that, you have to go to dinner with me" Jay adds quickly after she starts walking towards the locker room.

"Jay…" She sighs, her smile disappearing.

"What? It's just dinner" Erin looks away. She knew what Voight thought about their after-hours relationship and she didn't want to push it, but her heart wanted to throw herself into his arms and hold him forever. Her heart won.

"Fine, dinner then you're taking me home" Jay smiles and snaps a towel he used to wipe the sweat off his face at her ass, just as Voight walked in. Erin had already entered the locker room by the time Voight came over.

Hank stood only a foot away from Jay, staring him down and not saying a word.

"I thought I made myself clear" Voight mumbles.

"Hank what are you doing here?" Erin asks nervously, coming out of the locker room wearing her jeans, maroon leather jacket and high heel boots. Her curled hair falling only a few inches past her shoulders, it made Jay stare, Voight caught on to it.

"I'll see you two tomorrow, don't be late" Voight says seriously then leaves.

"I'll have to take a rain check on dinner, I forgot about dinner with Justin and Voight tonight, that's why he came here… to ask me what time we had to be at the restaurant"

"Tomorrow night?" Jay asks. Erin nods and waves as she leaves the building, leaving Jay there to his thoughts.

"How's life Justin?" Erin asks him. The younger man looks at his dad then at Erin.

"Better than being locked up in a cell" He answers.

"I went over to your apartment today, where were you?" Justin wonders. Erin and Hank exchange a look, Erin looks at her lap.

"Yeah Erin, where were you?" Hank asks knowingly. Before she could answer, her phone rings. It was Jay. Saved by the bell… literally.

"I gotta take this" She says quickly and walks over towards the door and answers it.

"Hey J-"

"Erin meet me at the river walk, I need to uh- I need to talk to you" Something was weird about his voice, she didn't question it though. All she wanted was to get out of there.

"I'm sorry guys, I gotta bounce. I'll see you later" she says before rushing out of the restaurant.

"She's goin' to see that partner of hers isn't she?" Justin asks sadly.

"Don't know" Voight replies. The two men sit there in silence, both wondering the same thing. What is going on with Erin?

Erin walked around the river walk looking for Jay, she didn't see him though. She calls his cell and walks around some more, she hears ringing near the wooded area of the park and runs towards it. She stands near some bushes and sighs, what the hell is this guy doing? Just as she is about to walk away, a hand goes over her mouth and an arm around her waist. Next thing she knows, she's being pinned to the ground by two men, another stands at her feet with a gun to Jay's head.

"We finally found you Erin, you think we wouldn't find you with your partner? Please, that was the most obvious place to look" He chuckles. Erin struggles against the men, flailing her legs and bucking her body up and down, side to side.

"Let me go you pigs!" She spats at the men holding her down.

"Honey, you don't even wanna know what we're capable of, so I suggest you listen to us." One of the men mumbles in her ear.

"Alright! Fine! I'll drop the case, just let him go!" Erin finally gives in, this satisfies the men greatly. Although they didn't know Erin Lindsay, no way in hell would she give up.

"Hank don't like you two together does he?" The main guy says slyly, a smirk planted on his face.

"Chicago P.D! freeze! Put let them go and put your hands up!" Voight's voice commands. The whole team was there, arresting the men and helping Erin to her feet.

"You two alright?" Hank asks both Erin and Jay.

"Fine" they answer in unison. Hank puts his arm around Erin's shoulders and walks her over to her car.

"Did they hurt you?" He asks. Erin shakes her head relived.

"How did you know what was going on?" Erin wonders.

"A civilian called it in, she saw two men grab you and Halstead."

"This isn't over Erin!" The main leader yells as he is pushed into Burgess and Atwater's squad car. Erin had a fearful look in her eyes, she didn't realize it but she had been holding in a long breath.

"Breathe kid, he won't touch you again" She exhales and quickly hugs him, burying her face in his chest. She sobs on his shirt, he doesn't care though. He pulls her close and rests his chin on the top of her head.

"It'll be alright, you're okay" He soothes. Jay saw this from his standing position next to Antonio, he walks over.

"Erin you alright?" Hank lets go of Erin and pulls her behind him.

"Next time you put her or any of my detectives in danger again, I swear I'll kick your balls up in your throat, and you better bet your ass I'll kick you off this team" Voight threatens. Jay doesn't know what to think so he takes a step back, eye balling Erin the whole time.

"It wasn't his fault Hank, they woulda killed him" She tries to argue, Voight wouldn't allow it.

"Save it" He says then walks over to Antonio.

"I'm so sorry Erin, I refused at first but then they took out the gun and told me they'd killed both of us if I didn't get you down here"

"It's alright, I'm not mad at you like Voight is. But… I think we should take a break from hanging out or whatever we were doing for a while, at least until this blows over" Jay nods, at least she didn't say it was completely over.

A/N- sorry if this sucks, I've had a longg weekend and I'm super tired and that would be why its shorter. Thanks for the reviews! I appreciate them soo much and they inspire me to write so keep em' coming!
