Heya guys. So since my other The Ball got deleted due to unknown reasons I thought i would rewrite it with different character going after Gabby. Hope you enjoy. I don't own Chicago Fire or Chicago PD! Thankyou all so much for your reviews! Keep reviewing with additional ideas :D x OK i know I completely missed a few scenes here but Jules has been killed Pulpo and his gang. And Sumner is now in the team. I know its skipped a lot. Sorry for any confusion in future. xx
Justin sat outside the district, watching and waiting.
Where the hell am I? Matt thought as he woke up in complete darkness. His hands and feet were bound tight and his mouth was duct taped. He felt drowsy again and fell back into unconsciousness.
District 21
"We better let you get back to work." Laura said, as they cleaned away their rubbish.
"I'll be home later." Antonio said, kissing them both on the cheek.
"See you later." Everyone called, as they girls left.
"Can you file this for me?" Cresswell said, handing Antonio a file as they went back to their desks.
"Sure can." Antonio said, taking the file and flipping through it at his desk.
"Damn stapler." Sumner muttered, as she rattled through the desk looking for the staples as Antonio walked past.
As Sumner was looking for the staples, she found a picture of Jules and her two children Emmy and Liam on holiday.
"I found this in my desk." Sumner said, holding up the photo to Antonio who took it from her hand.
"Hmph." Antonio said, letting off a small smile.
"What was she like?" Sumner asked quietly, with a small smile of her own.
"She was a pain in the ass. Her coffee order was the most complicated in the district. Took her longer to describe it than to drink it. She was damn good police. Slept like a baby every night." Antonio said, holding back his tears.
"Do you mind if I keep it?" She asked, motioning to the picture.
"Yeah, I do." Antonio said abruptly, before walking off to his desk.
"Look I know you don't want another partner, that doesn't bother me. But do you think you could treat me with a little more respect?" Sumner said, as she was getting sick of the cold shoulder.
"You're right. I didn't want a new partner. But guess what? I have one now. And this conversation is over." Antonio said, as everyone stopped and watched them.
"This conversation is far from over Dawson. I don't see what your problem is." Sumner said, standing up and walking over to his desk.
"Enough! The both of you. You wanna fight? You go to the boxing gym and fight." Cresswell said, as he watched the two detectives stare each other down.
"Fine." Sumner said, before grabbing a file and walking off towards the break room.
That night-Antonio and Laura's house
"Hey, I'm home." Antonio said, walking into the front door.
"Daddy!" Eva and Diego yelled, running into the hallway and hugging him.
"Hey kiddos, how was school?" He asked, kissing both their heads and walking towards the living room.
"Great I got an A on my math exam." Eva said, flopping down onto the lounge next to Diego.
"That's great. Told you, your Mom's smart." Antonio said, sitting next to them.
"I got a B+ on my science exam." Diego said, poking Eva.
"That's great Diego, dinner should be ready soon." Laura said, coming up behind them and kissing Antonio's cheek. "How was work?"
"Talk about it later. Go wash up for dinner." Antonio said, poking both kids in the sides as they got up.
"Are you sure?" Laura asked, wrapping her arms around his waist.
"Positive. What's for dinner?" He asked, kissing her.
"Men." Laura muttered while punching him in the arm before walking into the kitchen.
"What did the male specimen do this time?" He laughed, following her into the kitchen.
"That's all you think about. Food." She said, laughing with him.
"Among other things." He replied, as the kids came running back into the kitchen.
"Shut up and eat your dinner." She replied, putting their plates on the table.
"Where's Gabby?" Antonio asked, sitting down next to her.
"Out with Shay and Severide." Laura replied, looking at him.
Just then the phone rang. "I'll get it." Antonio said, standing up and walking over to the home line. "Dawson residence."
"Antonio! I-I can't find him. He won't pick up his phone." Gabby said frantically through the phone.
"Gabs you need to calm down. Who can't you find?" Antonio said, immediately getting worried.
"Matt, he won't pick up his phone, he never showed up for shift nothing. He's truck is at home but he isn't there." Gabby sobbed as she sat on Shay and Severide's couch as they rang everyone that knew Matt.
"Gabby, listen to me. You need to call the police. I will be there soon." Antonio said, picking up his car keys, badge and holstering his gun.
"Okay." Gabby said, before hanging up and dialing 9-1-1.
"What's happened?" Laura asked, following her husband to the door.
"Matt's missing. I will ring you soon." He said, kissing her before walking towards his car.
"Be safe." She called, as he opened his door.
"Always babe." He replied, before getting into the car and closing the door and starting the vehicle.
"Where's Dad going?" Eva asked, joining her mother at the door.
"I will tell you later. Let's go in and eat." Laura said, ushering her eldest inside before closing the door and locking it.
Antonio's POV
As I sped through the Chicago streets, my only thoughts were 'Who would go after Matt again? Voight's away in jail.' I pulled up outside his house where police swarmed the place. I get out and slam my door shut before running up the stairs.
"Gabby!" I yelled running into the living room.
"I just got her to sleep." Shay said, walking quickly up to me.
"Is she okay?" I ask frantically, following her upstairs.
"Scared out of her mind." Shay replied, carefully opening the bedroom door to find Gabby sprawled on her side asleep.
"I'm going to lay with her. Come and get me if there is any progress." I said quietly, while looking at my devastated sister.
"No problem." Shay smiled, patting me on the back and closing the door as she left.
I quietly make my way to the right side of the bed and sit down next to Gabby. She quietly stirs next to me as I lean against the headboard.
"Matt..." Gabby mumbled, grabbing onto my shirt.
"Ssh, it's okay." I whisper, brushing back her hair.
"Have you found him yet?" She asked her voice cracking slightly with emotion as she wrapped her arms around my waist and hugging tight.
"Not yet, but we will. I promise." I said, hugging her tight as she fell asleep.
Stay tuned for Chapter 23. I know it isn't as long but there is more to come. So Justin has taken Matt. Will Antonio and the crew get him back safely? If you have any story lines PM me or leave a review. Thankyou all for following and reviewing this story :D xo
