D is for Drugged

Jamie looked at his watch, he sighed and started gathering his stuff. He was late for Sunday dinner. He'd been so lost in his paperwork, he lost track of time. Jamie started to walk away, but he stopped and turned around, remembering his fresh cup of coffee on his desk. The lid was slightly askew, but he didn't think much of it. He fixed the lid and made his way to his car. Jamie parked and climbed out of the car. He grabbed his coffee and headed to the door. Once inside he downed his coffee and discarded the cup.

"About time you get here. I'm starving!"

"Nice to see you too, Danny."

Jamie sat down. After Henry said grace everyone dug in. Jamie tried to stile a yawn.

"Let me guess, paperwork?" Jamie looked up at his father.

"How'd you know?" Frank just laughed. As the night went on, Jamie started to feel dizzy. He stood to take his plate into the kitchen and nearly fell.

"You ok kid?"

"Yeah, Danny. Just tired." Jamie stood slower this time and walked into the kitchen. He placed his plate in the sink. He turned to go back in the other room, but his vision swam and his knees went weak. He grabbed the edge of the counter, until the dizziness passed.

Erin collected a few plates and headed to the kitchen. She stopped in the doorway when she saw Jamie.

"You doing alright?" Jamie looked up at her.

"Um, yeah." He let go of the counter and took a step. He immediately regretted it. His legs turned to noodles and his face met the floor.

"Jamie!" Erin dropped the dishes she was holding and went to Jamie's side. His eyes were closed. "Jamie, can you hear me?" The shattering dishes caused everyone to come and investigate. Danny entered first. Followed by everyone else.

"What happened?"

"I don't know, he just collapsed." Erin was fighting to hold back tears. Danny knelled next to Jamie and placed a hand on his neck.

"His pulse is strong." Next he checked for any injuries. Upon finding none he looked at his Dad.

"I already called an ambulance." Danny nodded and turned his attention back to Jamie. He lightly smacked his face.

"Jamie. Hey kid. Wake up." Jamie didn't stir.

When the ambulance arrived, Frank explained what happened. The EMTs set to work and soon had Jamie loaded into the ambulance. Everyone piled into cars and followed the ambulance. When they got there Danny tried to follow Jamie, but was forced into the waiting room. There the Reagan family sat and waited for one hour. A doctor finally emerged.

"Reagan?" Everyone stood, and Frank stepped forward. "He's going to be fine. We did some blood work and it looks like he was drugged. There wasn't very much so he should be waking up in about an hour, the he can go home"

"Thank you." Danny looked at Frank.

"Who would want to drug Jamie?"

"He is a cop." Danny just nodded.

Jamie opened his eyes to a bright hospital room. He freaked out, until his eyes landed on his family. They explained what happened. The wheels turned in Jamie's head. His mind wondered back to the lid on his coffee cup. Somebody in the police department had slipped drugs in his cup. He planned on finding out who, but was to tired to do anything about it now.
