My take on Absolute Power if things had gone differently.

"You mean my Mets tickets Janko" Jamie said

"What no! I called" Eddie said

"Yea but you didn't know the answer" Jamie said

"Fine, I'll give you one" Eddie said

"What if I want both?" Jamie asked

"Yea? You would have taken me anyway" Eddie said

"I have another friends, I just happen to see you the most. Sean's birthday is coming up, maybe I was going to take him" Jamie said

"He won't buy you a beer though"

"So then drinks on you?" Jamie asked

"No drink, singular, as in one drink" Eddie said

"I guess I can live with that" Jamie said laughing

"Good cause it's all you're getting" Eddie said

"Alright, now we gotta go back to work. Hospital called, prisoner was asking for you"

"It was probably the guy we collared last week, the one that proposed to me"

"Ugh that was disgusting" Jamie said as started driving

"I can't help that I'm irresistible" Eddie said

"To crazy people!" Jamie said shooting her a look

"The heart wants what the heart wants Reagan. I'll even let you be my maid of honor" Eddie said laughing

"Just what I want to do. I gotta fluff your bullet proof vest? Cause if your marrying a crazy person you're gonna need it" Jamie said as they pulled up to the hospital.

"Exactly you just have to make sure I look perfect" Eddie said laughing as she got out of the car

"Here we go" Jamie said as they walked into St. Vics

They were directed up to the ICU and when they were there they ran into Linda.

"Jamie thank God you guys are here. He's in pretty bad shape. Head trauma and broken ribs, collapsed lung"

"Who?" Jamie asked

"They didn't tell you?" Linda asked as they approached two officers

"Sarge just said a prisoner was asking for Eddie"

"Oh my God" Eddie said as they walked up to the door

"It's my dad" Eddie said as she turned to face Jamie

Her dad was still out of it so they started to question the corrections officer that was outside his room.

"I told you it happened in the laundry room" The officer said

"Who caused the injuries?" Jamie asked

"We don't know yet"

Eddie just looked at Jamie that she didn't believe what this guy was saying.

"Well you know who was in the area at the time, don't you?" Eddie said

"They will be an investigation"

"Aren't there security cameras in the laundry room?" Eddie asked, getting annoyed

"This isn't exactly your jurisdiction" He said

"That's my father lying in that bed, that makes my jurisdiction" Eddie said more forcefully

"That fraud? He swindled millions of dollars out of people. Your father's a crook" He said

"What did you call him you son of a bitch?" Eddie yelled as she lunged for him

Jamie instantly stepped in between them to cut Eddie off.

"Come on Eddie, take a break, take a break" Jamie said hooking his arms around her to push her further down the hallway

"Losing it with him isn't gonna help" Jamie said

"Jamie he has intracranial bleeding and broken ribs, and a punctured lung. And this guy is telling me it's not my jurisdiction" Eddie said, her voice wavering.

"Ok, but it's not" Jamie said sympathetically

"So we're not going to look into it?" Eddie asked

"If we do we would piss off a whole lot of people" Jamie said

"But I'm in if your are" Jamie said meeting her eyes

"Thank you" Eddie sad composing herself

"Why don't we go sit, Linda said she'd come get us when we could see him" Jamie said gently

"Fine" Eddie said

"Eddie you can talk to me you know. You're not alone here" Jamie said

"I can't, not right now" Eddie said

"Ok" Jamie said nodding

"Eddie, you can go see him now" Linda said walking over

"Thanks Linda"

"I'll make sure he's taken of Eddie, I promise" Linda said putting a hand on her arm

"Thank you" Eddie said

"You ready?" Jamie asked

"Probably not" Eddie said

"Do I need to hold your gun?" Jamie asked with a smile, remembering what she had said to him when he went with her to see him.

"No I think we're past that" Eddie said

"Good, you want me to wait out here?"

"No, can you come with me?" Eddie asked

"I can do that" Jamie said nodding

"Hey dad" Eddie said as they walked into Armin Janko's room

"This is Officer Jamie Reagan, my partner"

"Hi Mr. Janko" Jamie said going over to shake his hand

"I hear you take good care of my little girl" Armin said

"I do my best" Jamie said

"She's lucky to have you as her partner from what I hear" Armin said

"She's a pretty solid partner and friend" Jamie said looking over at Eddie.

"So dad what can you tell us about the guys that attacked you?" Eddie asked

"Not much they attacked me from behind"

"How many of them were there?" Jamie asked

"I don't know. You look so important. The uniform" Armin said to Eddie

Jamie instant looked at Eddie and saw her tense up before she answered.

"You must have some idea who did this to you" Eddie said

"I don't remember. Edit Marie I'm so proud of you"

"Where were the corrections officers?" Eddie asked

"They, they got there to break it up but not in time" Armin said

The nurse then came in and kicked them out and Eddie and Jamie walked out.

"Somethings not right, stories aren't adding up" Jamie said

"What are you saying?" Eddie asked

"I'm saying things aren't adding up and someone's hiding something" Jamie said

"Great" Eddie said sarcastically

"Why don't we head back to the house and do some digging" Jamie said

"You sure?" Eddie asked

"Yea I haven't pissed anyone off this week" Jamie said with a smirk

"Thank you" Eddie said as they walked back to their patrol car.

"Eddie I can look into this if you want me to" Jamie said gently

"No one's protected me from my father's shit for years Jamie, I'm not about to let it happen now" Eddie said

"I just thought maybe it would easier on you"

"It won't" Eddie said

He knew to expect Eddie to fly off the handle, while her relationship with her father has improved, by no means were they having weekly dinners together.

"Come on it's end of tour why don't we change and start digging" Jamie said as they walked back into the precinct

Jamie changed first and went to his desk to call the warden.

"Sure, yea, great thanks" Jamie said sarcastically hanging up his desk phone as Eddie walked in.

"Warden won't meet with us because it's not our jurisdiction"

"Great" Eddie said sarcastically

"Why don't get go back to your dad and talk to him?" Jamie asked

"Cause you don't know my father" Eddie said

"But I know his daughter and I think he would do it for her" Jamie said sitting on the edge of his desk

Eddie still had her back to Jaime. "I saw him lying in that bed, all beat up, and just for a second I forgot all the bad stuff and he was just my dad"

"Nothing wrong with that Eddie" Jamie said gently

"It took me a long time to recover" Eddie said turning back to face Jamie "I don't know what I would do if he let me down again"

"you must have some good memories"

"Yea, Jamie, they are all good, that's the problem. It was all just one giant lie" Eddie said sitting in the chair next to Jamie's desk

"Maybe we need to find someone that has been recently released that could shed some light" Jamie said

He picked up his phone and was about to call a friend in corrections when Eddie stopped him.

"Jamie? Why are you doing all of this?" Eddie asked

"Cause I don't want to let you down"

"Thanks" Eddie said quietly, knowing he was the least likely person to ever let her down

A little while later Jamie got off the phone and Eddie was still sitting in the chair next to his desk.

"Ok I got the info for his old cell mate, we can go talk to him tomorrow at work" Jamie said

"Huh? Oh ok thanks" Eddie said

"Janko?"

"Yea I'm good" Eddie said

"You wanna go get dinner and drinks or do you want to go see your dad?" Jamie asked

"I think I'm just gonna go home tonight"

"You don't have to keep this up with me" Jamie said

"I just need to be alone, ok" Eddie said

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow ok. We'll go talk to your dad's cell mate"

"Yea, perfect" Eddie said

"Eddie" Jamie said giving her a look

"Reagan I'm fine, ok? I'll see you tomorrow" Eddie said as they walked out of the precinct

"Eddie wait" Jamie said once they were outside

"What?" Eddie asked really hoping he wasn't gonna try and talk to her about this

"I know what you're going through, a parent in the hospital isn't easy" Jamie said gently putting a hand on her shoulder

"Yea and I'm guess you think I should be at the hospital with him instead of going home" Eddie said

"No, you need to do what you think it right. But there's a lot of emotions that come with it. My mom was in and out of the hospital at the end, my dad was shot when I was still partnered with Sarge. It's not easy to sit back and watch Eddie" Jamie said

"Yea but you had a better relationship with them. Jamie you see your dad more in a week usually than I do in a month" Eddie said

"Eddie I told you I'm not judging. I'll even go with you to see him if you want" Jamie said

"Jamie you can't force me to fix everything tonight ok, just drop it. I'll see you tomorrow" Eddie said

"Alright" Jamie said holding his hands up in defense

Eddie went right home but Jamie on the other hand went to one of their favorite bars for dinner and had to field all the questions on where his partner was, he thought it was annoying that they couldn't even spend a night apart without questions.

He was back home sitting on the sofa watching a game when he figured he should text Eddie to check up on her.

J: I lost at beer pong again

E: Shocker

J: I can take you being mad you know

E: Who said I was mad

J: No jokes about my pong skills, you didn't want food, you're not talking to me

E: Why do you feel the need to know everything about my life?

J: Eddie I'm just trying to be a good friend and a good partner

E: Well don't

E: I'll see you tomorrow

J: See you tomorrow partner

Jamie just tossed his phone to the other end of the couch and groaned, she really knew how to piss him off. He was just trying to help, he wasn't trying to fix or meddle, just be there for her. He didn't know how it was gonna play out and he didn't need her losing it on him when they were on duty.

Eddie also just tossed her phone, she didn't understand why Jamie was pushing her so hard on this, it wasn't like she wanted to sit vigil at her father's bed side and he would never understand that. She knew he was coming from a good place but right now it wasn't what she needed.

A little while later Jamie heard his phone ring and he dug around the couch to find it

E: I'm sorry

J: For what? Jamie sent with a smiley face

E: Don't make me say it, I'm not in a mood Reagan

J: Ok, ok. I'm not mad Eddie, I just wanted you to know that you can talk to me. I know what it's like to have a sick parent

E: I appreciate it, I really do. But neither of your parents were in a federal prison for a Ponzi scheme

Jamie finally gave up and just called her

"God you're such an old man" Eddie said answering

"Well hello to you to" Jamie said laughing

"I'm not up for talking"

"Texting is more effort"

"You know what I mean" Eddie said groaning

"Yea and that's why I called. Make sure you're ok" Jamie said

"None of this is ok" Eddie said

"You want me to come over?" Jamie asked

"No that would be ridiculous. It's late and I'm tired" Eddie said

"Ok, but the offer stands. I do think you should think about taking some time off" Jamie said

"Why don't we wait and see what his cell buddy says first" Eddie said

"Alright. I just wanted to make sure you were ok. Get some sleep Janko"

"Thanks Jamie" Eddie said sincerely

The next morning they went to the pizza place that Jeffery Stark worked at.

"Jeffery Stark?" Jamie asked

"What do you want? I haven't committed a crime" He said

"We just want to ask you some questions" Jamie said

"You're not in any trouble" Eddie said

"Yea then why are you here?" He asked

"The warden at Yorktown said you were cell mates with Armin Janko" Eddie said

"You know Armin?"

"He's my... father" Eddie said

"I thought you looked familiar. You never visited much"

"Yea and I had my reasons and they are none of your business"

"We're trying to help Armin, he was pretty badly beaten up in the laundry room" Jamie said running interference

"He's not giving up much info" Jamie added

"It's called survival"

"Warden can't get to you out here" Jamie said

"I kept my mouth shut and got out for good behavior. Now if you'll excuse me, my pizzas are getting a little cold"

"You're right ok, I wasn't the best at visiting and like I said, those are my reasons but no one deserves to get assaulted like he did"

"The only thing I can tell you is that the laundry room is the black market of the prison"

"How's that?" Jamie asked

"Get anything you want. Drugs, weapons"

"Great he's dealing drugs" Eddie said walking away

"Eddie slow down. Give him the benefit of the doubt" Jamie said as she was power walking through the hospital

"Since when do we give perps the benefit of the doubt?" Eddie seethed

"Ok slow down" Jamie said pulling on her arm

"Get off me Reagan" Eddie said shaking out of his grasp

"We do sometimes Eddie. So do you. What your dad did, yea not great. He sure did a number on you but why after all this time would he start dealing drugs. I don't know how you go from white collar crimes to drug dealing. I told you somethings not adding up" Jamie said

"Then write the ACLU Jamie cause I'm done with him" Eddie said

"If you can't give him the benefit of the doubt for him can you do it for yourself? You deserve to know the truth and if you go in there and ambush him, he's gonna close off"

"Whatever"

"Then do it for me? I wanna hear what he has to say" Jamie said gently

"Fine, I will hear him out" Eddie said walking ahead of Jamie again

When they reached the door to his wing Eddie stopped and just looked at Jamie. He nodded and kept some distance between them as they walked to his room

"You're dealing drugs in a city prison?" Eddie asked as she walked in.

Jamie had to admit, it was a lot calmer than he was expecting.

"What?" Armin asked sitting up

"Are you kidding me?" Eddie yelled

"Here we go" Jamie mumbled under his breath, that was the Eddie he knew and loved

Jamie wouldn't admit it to anymore, but he just wished he would protect her from this so she wouldn't get hurt again. He was the one that had pushed her to go see her dad and it seemed to be working for awhile but then this blew up and she didn't deserve this. She had been hurt enough and he just wanted to protect her and tell her everything would be alright.

"Is that what you think?" Armin asked shocked

"What am I supposed to think?!" Eddie yelled

Jamie stood at the doorway, mostly to make sure Eddie didn't totally lose it but he swore he saw steam come out of Eddie's ears.

"Dad will you just do me one favor, for once in your life be honest" Eddie said, she moved closer to the bed and wasn't yelling as loud as she had been.

"For once" She yelled again

Jamie stepped into the room, he had never seen Eddie this angry before.

"I've always been honest with you" Armin said trying to take her hand

"NO YOU HAVEN'T DAD" Eddie yelled louder than before

A nurse heard the commotion and was trying to come in but Jamie told her it was fine.

"You're whole life is a lie" Eddie said now gesturing all over the place

Jamie really thought she was seconds from going off in Serbian.

"You never game me a chance to explain" Armin said

"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOU EXPLAIN ANYTHING BECAUSE EVERYTHING THAT COMES OUT OF YOUR MOUTH IS LIE, EVERY SINGLE TIME. YOU LIE TO ME AGAIN, AND AGAIN AND AGAIN" Eddie said still yelling

Jamie moved a step closer, he heard Eddie's voice waver and he was ready to pull her out of the room if he needed to.

"I'M DONE WITH YOU" Eddie said

She turned to walk out of the room and Jamie caught that she was close to tears.

"Eddie" He said gently and she just put her hand up to push him away and walk out

Jamie looked back and saw the hurt in Armin's eyes and knew that there was more to this than he was letting on.

"You have a chance here, to fix things with Eddie and if I were you, I would. You did a number on her but I think if you tell the truth you can make it right with her. It's a chance I wouldn't pass up" Jamie said

"I can't fix what I did" Armin said looking down

"You can try and repair what you have by being honest" Jamie said walking closer to the bed

"So how did you really get those injuries?" Jamie asked looking directly at Armin

"I didn't get beat up for smuggling drugs inside. I got beat up for refusing to"

Jamie didn't say anything, he just nodded. He didn't think Eddie was going to believe him but he knew this was above their pay grade.

Jamie left Armin and went to find Eddie.

"Hey Eddie" Jamie said walking up to the cruiser

"Finally" Eddie said as Jamie unlocked it and she got in.

"Eddie"

"Save it Jamie. I really don't want to hear what ever crap is going to come out of your mouth" Eddie said

"I think you do" Jamie said

"Save it. I'm done. I was stupid for thinking that I wouldn't get hurt again" Eddie said

Jamie saw her wipe a quick tear away.

"You're not stupid Eddie"

"Reagan no matter what you say you can't fix this. You can't fix my shitty family situation no matter how much you might want to" Eddie said

"Janko will you just shut up and listen to me for two seconds" Jamie said

Eddie didn't say anything and just leaned back in her seat.

"This isn't a side of me people usually see Jamie and for good reason. You don't know what it's like to have a parent betray you, to lie to you, to hurt you, over and over and over again. My entire childhood is a lie, yea I could've had a worse situation, God knows we see kids that have it worse than I did but Jamie, please, I am begging you to just drop it. I can't try and pretend everything is ok, that I we can be one big happy family again. It took me three years just to go see my dad in prison, and now he's lying again. Jamie I can't. Please just back the hell off" Eddie said, wiping another tear away

"I'm sorry Eddie, I really am. But Eddie please listen to me and if you want to drop it I will" Jamie said

"You're gonna do whatever you want anyway" Eddie said looking away from him

"I talked to him Eddie. He has no reason to lie to me. He told me that he was beat up for not dealing drugs in the prison"

"Yea is that what he said?" Eddie asked sarcastically

"Eddie I believe him"

"You just believe him because you want to be right"

"No" Jamie said laughing

"I think after six years on the job I've gotten a pretty good sense when people are bullshitting me. And I honestly believe he was telling the truth. Eddie I have no reason to lie to you or to try and hurt you. I would tell you if I thought he was shoveling shit at us" Jamie said

"You would?" Eddie asked finally meeting his eyes

"Yea Eddie, I promise. I don't want to see you get hurt anymore than you already have been" Jamie said gently

"Now what do we do?" Eddie asked

"Go sweet talk a certain ADA that I like to call sis" Jamie said

"Great so more people can know my father's a criminal" Eddie said

"Erin's not gonna judge you. Erin likes you" Jamie said

"Fine" Eddie said

"I can take this to her myself if you wanna sit it out" Jamie said

"No, uh-uh, you're making me do this, I'm not getting benched" Eddie said

"Ok" Jamie said nodding

"Hey sis thanks for meeting us" Jamie said as they walked into Erin's office

"You usually don't give me any choice when you do this. Hey Eddie" Erin said kindly

"So what case are you trying to sweet talk me for now?" Erin asked

"You didn't tell her?" Eddie asked

"No, I've been talking you off a ledge all day" Jamie said

"You two wanna fill me in?"

"My dad, he's in prison" Eddie said before stopping and looking at Jamie

Jamie just nodded and continued for her "We got a call the other day on patrol that an inmate was asking for Eddie and it turned out to be her dad. He wasn't saying who did it and then he told me that he got beat up for not wanting to sell drugs inside the laundry room prison. We talked to his former cell mate who said that the laundry room is the prison black market" Jamie said

"I don't know if he's telling the truth" Eddie said sarcastically

Erin just looked at Jamie and he just shook hid head letting her know that he would fill her in later.

"None of the corrections officers had their story straight, DOC is giving us the run around. Something's not adding up" Jamie said

"Well it wouldn't be the first time corrections officers were on the take" Erin said

"So what happens when it comes out that he was dealing and this is all just a lie?" Eddie asked

"Janko you wanna go wait outside?" Jamie asked getting frustrated

"No I want you to stop trying to fix my family Jamie. I get it, you can call up your sister and she'll help you out. Jamie not everyone likes their family, just get over it" Eddie said walking out of Erin's office and sitting on a chair outside the door

"Is your partner ok" Erin asked concerned for Eddie

"It's Eddie, she flies off the handle. Nothing I can't handle. I just have never seen her this angry" Jamie said

"She seems pretty hurt"

"I thought I was gonna have to pull her out of his hospital room before she really caused a scene"

"What's your gut telling you?" Erin asked

"That he's telling the truth about this" Jamie said

"I'm sorry" Eddie said walking back in and sitting at the table with Erin and Jamie.

"That's ok. Danny storms out yelling at me on a weekly basis" Erin said laughing

Eddie relaxed a little and started to answer some more of Erin's questions.

"I'll talk to my investigator Alex McBride and we'll go from there Eddie"

"Thank you Erin. And I'm sorry about earlier" Eddie said

"Oh please, that was tame compared to family dinner or a teenage daughter" Erin said putting a hand on Eddie's arm

"Thanks sis. Come on shorty" Jamie said getting up

A little while later Jamie had gone out with another partner for a collar and when he came back Eddie was sitting at her desk with her head in her hands.

"Janko what's wrong?" Jamie asked sitting on the edge of her desk

"Erin called me" Eddie said still not meeting his eyes

He checked his phone again and didn't have anything from her.

"He was telling the truth Jamie" Eddie said and Jamie could hear the emotion in her voice

"That's a good thing"

"Yea after I stood there and yelled at him. God what kind of person am I?"

"Maybe you needed to get it off your chest" Jamie said

"Or maybe I'm the world's biggest bitch" Eddie said

"Eh. Not the world's biggest" Jamie said smirking

Eddie didn't even crack a smile.

"Damn Janko, tough crowd" Jamie said

"How do I go back in there after yelling at him?"

"I talked to him Eddie, he really does care about you" Jamie said

"I can't go back"

"Maybe you need to hear him out? Let's go now. We get paid for it and it's air conditioned" Jamie said

"Fine" Eddie said getting up from her desk.

"That's the spirit" Jamie said smiling

"Reagan you really are making me want to punch you right now"

"You really shouldn't assault your partner Eddie"

"You wanna try me?" Eddie asked as they walked out of the precinct

"No, I fully believe you" Jamie said getting in their RMP

Jamie and Eddie were standing outside of Armin's room when the ADA on the case walked out.

"He cooperated fully and his testimony was corroborated by the other inmates"

"He has no direct connection to the drug trafficking?" Jamie asked to just give Eddie piece of mind

"To the contrary, he's our whistle blower. He's the only one willing to testify against the prison guards and the warden"

Eddie just looked at Jamie shocked.

Eddie then looked away and Jamie just looked at her to make sure she was ok.

"I know this might be an odd thing to say, given your father's situation. But you should be proud of him"

Eddie didn't say anything but she wouldn't look at Jamie.

Eddie walked in and Jamie just waited at the door and put his head against the wall.

"Hi" Eddie said walking over to him.

Armin wasn't ready to be released yet but was sitting up on the side of the bed to go to physical therapy.

"Hey"

"So it looks like they are going to transfer you to federal prison and they might be able to reduce your sentence because of your testimony"

"Terrific" Armin said smiling

"I'm sorry dad, for what I said. I, I just, I really thought"

"You thought I as a crook"

"It's because you're right I am" Armin said

"You want to know why I stole the money?"

"Ok" Eddie said nervously

"I thought being a good father meant making sure that you didn't want for anything, even if that meant doing illegal things. I wanted to make sure that you didn't grow up like me. with nothing"

"Wait, you're not just giving me another excuse, another lie?" Lie asked much softer this time

"No, I'm giving you a real reason" Armin said

"Screwed up as it is" Armin said and Eddie just nodded

"My ride's here" Armin said standing up as Jamie walked into the room.

"So listen, I would like for you to keep an eye on her for me" Armin said to Jamie

"Will do" Jamie said sincerely

Eddie stood there and then went and threw her arms around her dad, feeling the anger and the hurt go away.

"Oh" Armin said hugging her back

"Dad" Eddie said quietly

Jamie felt himself get a little choked up at Eddie finally getting some closure.

"I'll come back tonight when I'm off duty, ok?" Eddie asked

"I would like that" Armin said

"Bye dad" Eddie said wiping her eyes as she walked out of the room with Jamie right behind her

As they were walking down the hall Jaime out his arm around her shoulders.

"Jamie, please, I'm trying to get out of here without crying. Just give me some time"

"Ok" Jamie said taking his arm off and falling a few steps behind her.

Once they got back to the car Jamie unlocked it and they got in.

"I don't want to talk about this yet, I'm not ready to talk about this yet. But thank you" Eddie said

"Any time partner" Jamie said with a smile and they drove back to the precinct in silence.

"Janko, my office" Renzulli said as they got back to the precinct

"Sarge" Eddie said

"Why don't you take tomorrow off and spend it with your dad"

"I'm ok"

"It's an order Janko"

"Yes boss. Thank you"

"Are you ok?"

"Yea I think so. I'm glad I finally got the truth" Eddie said

She knew Renzulli knew about her father and he had never held it against her.

"If you need anything just let us know ok Janko"

"Thanks Sarge" Eddie said walking out of his office

"What was that about? He giving you a rip for yelling at your partner?" Jamie asked smirking

"Oh you wish" Eddie said

"No he gave me off tomorrow to spend with my dad"

"That's good Eddie, I think you could use the time with him"

"Jamie it's not going to be fixed over night"

"No but when was the last time you hugged him?" Jamie asked

"A while ok" Eddie said

"Alright, if you need anything let me know, ok. Anytime Eddie it doesn't matter, you need me I'm there. I told you I don't want to let you down"

A few days later Eddie and Jamie were back on patrol.

"Hey partner" Jamie said as he walked in and saw Eddie

"Hey thanks for dropping dinner off last night" Eddie said

"No problem. How was your dad this morning?" Jamie asked

"Better, they think he can be released tomorrow or the next day"

"Well that's good" Jamie said

"Janko" Renzulli said popping his head out of his office

"What ever Reagan told you I'm fine Sarge" Eddie said

"It's about your dad"

"What happened I left him two hours ago"

"He keeps asking for you, they think maybe one of the medications has made him anxious"

"Should I go?"

"Yea I'm sending you down to the hospital. Reagan'll be fine without you for another day"

"Thanks Sarge" Eddie said

"Jamie" Eddie said knocking on the men's locker room door

"Hey Eddie what's up?" Jamie asked looking at her he knew something was off

"Hospital called, my dad keeps asking for me, they said he's really agitated and anxious. I'm going down for the day" Eddie said

"Ok, keep me updated ok"

"Thanks Jamie"

"Hey dad, what's wrong?" Eddie asked rushing into his room

"I'm fine. I told them to let you work. That you do important work"

"There's 35,000 of us, someone can cover for me if you need me" Eddie said looking at his monitors

"Still"

"Still nothing, tell me what's wrong" Eddie said

"I think one of the nurses was trying to kill me this morning"

"What do you mean?" Eddie asked

"They didn't know how to work the IV and didn't know what they were putting in it"

"Ok, Jamie's sister-in-law works here I'll see if she knows what's going on. I'm gonna call Jamie" Eddie said stepping out of his room

"Hey Janko is your dad ok?" Jamie asked as he answered

"He thinks a nurse is trying to kill him. I hate to ask but can you ask Linda to come up at some point, I just want to run the discerption by her. See if they are just knew or someone's actually trying to kill him" Eddie said

"Yea of course, the guards still there?" Jamie asked

"Yea, you don't actually think they would try to kill him for testifying do you? Like maybe one was in on it?"

"What's your gut telling you?" Jamie asked

"I don't know anymore. Leaning towards maybe trying to shut him up or make him look crazy"

"Be careful then ok?" Jamie said

"Yea of course"

"And I'll tell Linda to stop up"

"Thank you Jamie, I appreciate it" Eddie said

Eddie walked back into her dad's room.

"Ok so Linda will be up soon, ok"

"You think you can get some better food that the crap they have been feeding me?" Armin asked

"Sure" Eddie said laughing

"Hey Eddie, Mr. Janko" Linda said walking in

"Hey Linda, that was fast thank you" Eddie said

"Jamie told me to get my butt up here so I did" Linda said laughing

"He worries too much" Eddie said

"Of course he does. So Mr. Janko do you know about what time this was?" Linda asked looking at his chart

"It was shortly after Edit left for work, I would say maybe around 8am this morning" Armin said

"Ok I'm gonna check with the doctor, there's no order here after midnight for any drugs, you got some pain pills around midnight?" Linda asked

"Yea he was having a hard time getting comfortable" Eddie said

"Ok, and you're sure you weren't dreaming or anything Mr. Janko"

"No I wouldn't make this up"

"Ok just checking" Linda said

"Eddie have you eaten yet?"

"What?" Eddie asked laughing

"Jamie said to asked you if you have eaten yet and if not to send you to get food" Linda said

"He's a helicopter partner" Eddie said

"There's a good coffee/breakfast sandwich two doors down from the hospital. I'll stay with your dad while you go"

"Alright, since I get busted if I don't. Would you like anything?" Eddie asked

"No I'm fine thank you" Linda said

"Thank you for staying with him while I go"

"It's no trouble Eddie. Danny and Jamie's partners are always family, it's not anything I wouldn't do for any of them"

"Dad I'll bring you back some eggs or something and a coffee"

"Thank you Edit"

"I love you dad" Eddie said hugging her dad

"I love you too Edit" Armin said hugging her back

"Thank you" Eddie said walking out of the room

Eddie wasn't gone long when another nurse walked in and asked who Linda was, she looked out and saw that the guards were gone and before she could answer and yell for help she was hit over the head and immediately dropped to the ground.

Eddie realized that she had forgotten her debit card in her purse and that she had taken it out of her wallet that she had shoved into her jacket pocket. She walked back to Amrin's room and when she got there she hadn't remembered closing the curtain but didn't think too much of it since Linda said she was going to get the doctor to come in.

Her hand went to her off duty weapon as soon as she saw a big man in the room she didn't recognize as one of her father's nurses. She then saw Linda's sneakers sticking out on the floor and immedialy yelled Police.

"Get your hands off him" Eddie yelled fun pointed at him.

She could see that her father's monitors were going off and his eyes were closed and there was blood coming out of his head and ear.

"NYPD drop the knife now!" Eddie yelled

"I need some help in here" Eddie said

The guy then turned and jutted the knife out at her and fired one shot and got him on the ground and pulled her cuffs out of her jacket pocket and cuffed him to the bed.

People were starting to flood in and as she was yelling Linda and her father's name.

"What happened?" One of the nurses she recognized asked as she ran in

"Linda was on the ground unconscious when I walked it, he had a knife to my father and then lunged at me with it and I fired" Eddie said

"Linda, oh God, Linda wake up" Eddie yelled

More doctors and nurses rushed in as Armin started seizing under Eddie's hands that were applying pressure to his knife wound.

They rushed the fake nurse, Armin and Linda out of the room and Eddie was left standing there with blood all around her.
