《Reason to this madness (Jay Halstead x reader)》Tranquility (30)
Advertisement
Back at the district, I was taken to the break room since I had to make a statement. Kim gave me a blanket and poured me some tea and sat with me. She asked me a few questions about what had happened.
"Ok honey that's all for now" she rubbed my back once she was done.
I gave her a forced smile before I looked down at my hands and body that was covered in blood. His blood. "Y/n." I heard Jay's voice. I got up and he hugged me over the blanket. He kissed me on the forehead. "I'm sorry, they wouldn't let me talk to you until you'd given your statement."
"Can we go home please?" I whispered to him.
"Yeah, of course, I just have to write something up quickly, give me 10 minutes." He was about to walk out but he stopped at the door beside Kim and they both turned back to look at me.
I was sat back down and staring at my hands and clothing again. "Hey, why don't you come with me I have some spare clothes in the locker room. I'll help you clean up." Kim extended her hand out to me.
Jay thanked Kim and gave her a kiss on the head before walking out. I followed Kim to the locker rooms. Kim grabbed a few towels and started helping me clean up the blood. It was silent for a while before I spoke. "I don't know how you guys do it all the time."
Kim gave me an apologetic look. "I'd be lying if I said it was easy. My first few intense cases had me really shaken up, I think I almost handled them worse than you did." She took a deep breath. "I guess we just learn to deal with it at some point, or at least hide it better. "

I gave her a soft smile. "I'm just glad it's all finally over... for real this time."
We walked over to her locker and she pulled out some of her spare clothes. As I was getting dressed Jay came in.
"You ready to go, babe?" He leaned on the lockers. I finished pulling the shirt over myself.
"Yes please." I sounded desperate. "Thank you so much Kim, I'll wash them and give them back to you as soon as I can."
"Oh please don't worry about it, the outfit suits you better anyways." She winked at me.
I gave her a big hug. "Thank you."
I walked over to Jay and placed myself under his arm so his arm was over my shoulder. He smiled at the gesture.

During the drive home I didn't stop holding Jays hand even though that meant that he was using my hand to change gears. And once we arrived and got out of the car I was glued to his side again. We walked into the apartment and went over to the couch. I buried myself in Jay's arms.
"Baby are you ok?" Jay asked me a little confused at my clinginess.
I sat up and looked at him. "Both nights, with Damien, the thing that I was most afraid of wasn't dying Jay, I was scared I was never going to see you again." I wiped a few tears from my eyes. "When he caught me and I saw him lift up the knife, I guess a part of me thought I wouldn't see you again, and all the memories from the first time he took me came flooding back to me. I was terrified in the car Jay because of how I'd left things with you." I confessed to him.

He put his arm around me and gently pulled me down to his chest. "I was never going to let that happen. I won't ever let that happen." He kissed my head.
That night I fell asleep in his arms. He carried me to bed and made sure I was glued to him the whole night.

Unliving
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon, November 2021] For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in. The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless. Yet fate had a different path in store for her. For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being. Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death. She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath. What will fate deal her next? Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday. --------------------------------------- Expect: -Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages -World building -Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures -Occasional action Do not expect: -Much in terms of romance -Politics, barring passing views and mentions -A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated. And thank you for reading. --------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This story is my original work and only posted on the Royal Road website.
