View Full Version : How Long Can it Last...
#1_Nancy_McKeon 08-10-2003, 11:19 PM This picks up from where the Season Finale ended. I'm writing this one alone along with still writing 'A Routine' so just bear with me, people. :)
--------------------------------------------------
The apartment was completely quiet, but the rustling of people walking down the hallway past Liz’s door catches C.D.’s ears. Breathing shallowly she cracks her eyes open to look to her left at the door… she could see the shadows passing by now was the time…She opens her mouth to call for help, but nothing comes out. Closing her eyes slowly again she opens them and moves her head lower catching a glimpse of her blood stained shirt. Inhaling deeply she knew she needed help, but she couldn’t seem to gather the strength. She knew she had to stay calm otherwise the situation would fall further out of control, and she would have no hope of getting out alive.
Closing her eyes again she slips into a dream state. Remembering she and Nate’s parting words from earlier. She shouldn’t have come here she should have went and met Nate like she had planned. Then she remembered… Liz. Gathering up all the strength she could C.D. opens her eyes again keeping them from her own wound as they focus onto the woman laying across from her on the floor. She was in worse shape than she was. There was too much blood surrounding her for her to be alive. Closing her eyes again C.D. moves her hand up slowly to her pocket, and reaches inside feeling around for her cell phone. Filling it she pulls her hand out of her pocket, but the grasp on the phone wasn’t as tight as she thought allowing it fling onto the carpet below.
“Dammit!” C.D. says out loud struggling to maintain her breathing pattern. Leaning over she stretches to reach the phone, but her arms aren’t long enough… the phone was just out of reach, her lifeline.
Once having settled herself into her office the best that she could for right now Kate then remembers the folders she had left on Magda’s desk. Grabbing her crutch Kate struggles for a moment as she steadies herself, and limps from her office to Magda’s desk where she picks up the files.
An Officer stops at her side touching her arm gently, “It’s great you’re back, Captain.” The man says politely with a smile.
“Thanks, it’s great to be back.” Then it hit her, “Grab your partner, and do me a favor.” She begins. After explaining what she had to Magda about the U.S. Marshal the Officer’s were on their way to her apartment to pick her up for questioning. It was late, but Kate didn’t want to waste any time… If she was in on it there was no telling when she’d pack up and leave. It was best if they caught her before she expected anything.
Leaning Kate allowed the crutch to support her weight as she stood and read over one more thing in the case before the sound of her cell phone she had left in her office caught her attention. Tucking the folders under her free arm the woman hobbles into the Office, tossing the folders to her desk as she picks her cell up, “Captain McCafferty.” She proudly states. Her face drops, “Louis…” she says surprised.

-----------------------------------------------------
Checking his watch for the fifth time in five minutes Nate exhales and looks out the window at the falling rain that was visible beneath the streetlights. Leaning forward in his seat he looks first right out the window then left in search for the blonde he was awaiting. His heart jumps as he sees a tall woman coming toward the door of the restaurant, but it soon drops again when she arrives under the awning of the building and pulls the hood from her head revealing flowing long red hair; Definitely not C.D. Sitting back down in his seat he checks his watch again. He’d been waiting for forty-five minutes. That’s after he had stood in line at the local drug store for fifteen minutes just to buy a single red rose to surprise C.D. with when she arrived. Letting his eyes drop to the table he looks to the rose that was beginning to lose its poise. So many questions filled his head… Should he have confessed all his feelings today? Maybe the kiss over did it? Or maybe… The combinations and thoughts were endless. After excusing the waiter the fifth time from the table Nate shakes his head, “That’s it.” He says to himself as he dials a number. He wasn’t going to do this to himself anymore… he had to face the music. Find out what had happened for her not to show up.
Knocking on the door to Elizabeth, the U.S. Marshall’s, apartment the Officers waited for a response, but doesn’t get one so they knock yet again. Still nothing… Turning to leave the two men hear a telephone ring within the apartment that makes them stop for a moment longer. The phone had stopped… Coming from the apartment over a woman sees the two Officers, “I see someone called!” she states after she locks her door and walks toward them.
“Pardon me?” The Officer asks.
“I heard gunshots earlier, but I thought it was the TV.”
The two men look to each other. Giving each other a look.
Giving them a look the woman asks, “You didn’t get called about the shots, did you?”
The blonde Officer shakes his head, “No, Ma’am.” Just as his partner takes it upon himself to enter the apartment it’d be his job on the line if there wasn’t anything suspicious inside, but if so… He didn’t think he only reacted. Cracking the door he saw a dark shorthaired woman on the floor lying in a puddle of blood.
“OH MY GOD!” The neighbor exclaims grabbing her mouth after seeing her.
“Call 911!” The other Officer demands as the two rush into the apartment catching glimpse of the other bleeding woman.
“She doesn’t have a pulse!” The Officer yells to his partner across the room whom was checking on the blonde.
“This one does!” He had grabbed a cloth from the counter above her head and was now putting pressure on the wound. With his free hand he pulls the woman’s ID from her coat pocket so he could address her by name. Flipping the wallet open the glare of her star flashes him in the face, “This ones a Cop!” he exclaims.
Reaching up with a blood-dampened hand the man pushes a button to his radio and yells, “OFFICER DOWN! OFFICER DOWN! 10-71 Code three”
TDfan69 08-11-2003, 08:10 PM Hey- that wasn't seven pages, was it??????????

-----------------------------------------------------
The phone to his ear Nate could hear everything going on within the apartment. C.D. must have clicked on her cell.
It was quietly for a moment before he hears a man’s voice boast out, “OFFICER DOWN! OFFICER DOWN! 10-71 Code three”
He didn’t know what to do. Or where to go… He had no idea where C.D. was…
“C.D.!” he says into the phone!
“Come on talk to me!!” he raises his voice making several people in surrounding tables look to him, “What’s going on!?” he asks just as loud. Hoping maybe someone would hear his faint voice from C.D.’s cell phone.
“Sir, If you continue to interrupt…” The waiter was interrupted by a badge in his face, “This is Police business!” are his only words to the man. Be it… not much, but he couldn’t think straight right now. He had to know what was happening… Then he had an idea. Jumping up from the table he darts out the door of the restaurant heading directly to his car. Fumbling for his keys in his pocket he finds them, pulls them out, but drops them onto the rain-dampened pavement. Leaning over he grabs them, and in record time pushes them into the lock on his door, and was soon sitting inside the door still open, and his leg half way out being drenched by the rain. Turning on the car Nate stops motionless the phone to his ear and his other trying to catch any news pertaining to where his partner was on the radio.
After having summed up tonight’s session with her therapist Jinny smiles she had meant everything she said to her. She was really beginning to feel better about her life. Once saying her goodbyes she makes her way to the door her coat draped over her right forearm. Stepping out of the Office she moves through the vacant waiting room, and out the glass door. Shivering from the burst of chilled air that hits her body as she exits Jinny doesn’t move out from beneath the shelter of the awning before putting on her coat. Once it was on she inhales and rushes out from beneath it to her car, unlocks it, and gets inside. Closing the door once her feet are inside Jinny brushes the water from the shoulders of her jacket and leans forward to turn on her engine. Moving her hand to her left she turns on the heater… It was unusually cold tonight. A burst of cold air from the vents hit her in the face as a voice comes over dispatch, “780 Crest Point Apt #1 Officers down 10-71. Code 30.”
Glancing at her watch Jinny thinks what the hell…

---------------------------------------------
The song was over, and Raina looks up to Johnny whom had his arms still grasped around her, “The songs over.” She tries to chuckle off.
“I know.” He smiles down to her still moving even without the music, “I’m just enjoying being near you.”
“Johnny.” She chuckles slightly moving her hands to his arms, “I want a drink…”
“Just wait, baby… We’re having a moment.”
Narrowing her eyebrows Raina shakes her head taking his hands from her, “No, we were dancing. Now, I’m getting a drink.” She says looking to him again before turning and making her way around the other couples on the floor.
“What’d I do?” he asks himself before rushing after her, “Raina!” she doesn’t acknowledge him, “Raina, baby!” he says again grasping her arm.
“Get your hands off me…” she mocks him, “baby.”
“Whoa now…” the man puts his hands up, “What just happened?” he motions with his hands.
“You’re pressuring me. You’re not going to be the one deciding how long I’m dancing.” She says, “You’re lucky I even came.”
“Okay… okay. I’ll back up…” he assures, “I’ll take it slow.”
Shooting him a look she turns toward the bar to order her drink, a smirk across her lips.
Turning the corner down Crest Point Nate immediately knew where he was heading. There was already flashing lights, and ambulances in the front. He could hardly stop his car before he was out of it dashing for the entrance of the apartment building. Many doors in the hall were open with the occupants trying to see what was going on, but Nate rushes to the one the Officer’s were crowding around.
“I’m sorry. You can’t go past this point.” The officer says putting out his hand to block the man.
Pushing his hand hard into his pocket Nate grabs his badge, almost dropping it before he could even get it out of his pocket his eyes were scanning the room, but he couldn’t see anything beside Liz, and a pair of feet sticking out past where the paramedics were huddles, he knew it was C.D., “She’s my partner!” he motions inside with the hand holding the badge.
The man posted at the door nods once and allows him to enter. As soon as he is permitted inside he rushes over to his partner seeing her eyes cracked open slightly.
“C.D.!” the man pleads, “I’m here!” he moves frantically around the paramedics to the other side where only one E.M.T. was, “I’m here.” He takes her hand in his. She was already positioned on the stretcher.
Once finishing injecting the needle for the IV the E.M.T. looks to Nate, “I’m sorry, Sir.” He motions him to move away, “I need you to step back. We’ve got to get her to the hospital before she loses anymore blood.”
“Is she going to be alright.” He gets up from his knees as they pull the stretcher up on its wheels.
“I honestly can’t answer that right now she’s lost a lot of blood.” The Paramedic says as they begin pushing his partner away from him.
“Oh my god.” He pleads running his hand over his head. Reaching down he grabs his badge he had dropped on the floor when talking to C.D., and then rushes to catch up to the stretcher. Once outside Nate runs until he is next to the stretcher, and walks along side it.
“I should have been here.” He pleads to the blonde lying there motionless.
candace~n~nathan 08-17-2003, 12:34 AM Aw, come on!!! Don't stop!!!!:)

---------------------------------
The headlights of Jinny’s car hits the side of the Ambulance before she realizes she knew the person being put inside. Darting out her door she leaves it open rushing up to Nate whom she sees kiss C.D.’s hand before she it pushed into the vehicle, “I’ll be there!” Nate assures his partner, “You’ll be okay!” he tries to assures himself this time since by now the doors to the back of the ambulance were being closed.
“Hey!” Jinny exclaims, “I heard the call on the radio… What happened!?” she catches a glimpse of C.D. before the doors were fully closed. “I thought you guys were off duty?” she asks.
“I… we….” The man shakes his head.
Touching the side of Nate’s arm Jinny looks up into his face, “Hey… hey…” she tries to calm him, “You want me to drive you to the hospital?” she asks.
“No… My…” his voice pauses as he motions to his car, “Is over there.”
Jinny stood there in silence with that man as another stretcher is wheeled out, but this one containing a body covered by a white sheet.
“Who is that?” Jinny asks looking at Nate, but not waiting for a response before she moves over to it pulling the sheet back, and seeing Liz’s blood splashed face before an Officer hurries to stop her. Her response was only to toss the sheet back over it, “What in the hell happened?” she questions as she turns around to Nate.
“I…I don’t know. I was waiting for C.D… we were going to have dinner, and she never showed up.” He stutters as he speaks, “So…” he pauses trying to gather his thoughts, “I called her cell phone someone picked up, and that’s when I heard a man shouting about an Officer Down.”
The woman could tell how distracted Nate was, “How about we leave your car here, and…” she pauses touching his arm, “I will drive you to the hospital. I really don’t think you should be driving right now.”

#1_Nancy_McKeon 08-19-2003, 02:14 AM Here is a big chunk. I wrote some today....
------------------------------------------------------------
Inspector’s Basso and Exstead had been at the hospital for forty-five minutes now. Coming around the corner from the cafeteria Jinny carries two Styrofoam cups in her hands as she sees Kate come into the door after a man exiting holds a door open for her.
The dark haired woman stops in the hall in front of the doorway entrance, “Hey Cap!” she smiles.
“Hey…” she limps further in with her crutch before thanking the man holding the door, and then turns to Jinny, “How is she?”
“How’d you know?”
Kate shakes her head, “Let’s just say…” she pauses as she makes it to the Inspector, “Spivey and his bonsai took a leave this afternoon. I sent two officers to Marshall Roe’s apartment. I got the call twenty minutes ago.”
Jinny couldn’t help a smirk about Spivey, “Good for you, Cap.” She pats the woman’s arm, “Glad to have you back.”
“If I hadn’t…” Kate grits her teeth as she takes another step, “C.D. would still be laying there.”
“Yeah…”
“Who’s the better cop now, Spivey?” Kate snickers.
The two women were on their way back to the waiting room, “Nate is pretty shook up.”
Kate only nods, “He has every right to be.”
Rounding the corner to the waiting room Nate catches sight of the Captain.
“You hear anything yet?”
Jinny hands Nate the coffee she had gotten him in silence.
“Thanks.” He almost whispers, and then shakes his head at Kate’s question, “They haven’t told me anything. We’ve been here, and still… nothing.”
“Are you here about Candace De Lorenzo?” a man in a white coat asks just as he arrives in the waiting room. Jinny recognized him right off, but doesn’t bother to say anything. She hadn’t exactly approved of he and Magda’s relationship from the get go.
“Yes!” Nate was the first to say.
“I’m Doctor Michaelson.” the Doctor introduces then glances to the ground a moment, “She’s out of surgery, and is in recovery now. The bullet grazed the side of her spleen, but we managed to save it. I expect her to make a full recovery.” He looks to Kate for a moment, “Long time no see, Captain.”
Nate rests his elbows on the top of the counter in the waiting room as he runs the palms of his hands over his head breathing a sigh of relief.
“Thank you, Doctor.”
“When can we see her?” Nate asks looking up from his position at the counter.
“She’s in the I.C.U. right now, but she should have her own room by morning.”
“Morning?” Nate exclaims.
“Are you her husband? Only families are permitted right now.”
“No…” the man grits his teeth he wished right now he was. He had to see her to tell her how sorry he was. He should have been there with her. Dammit, why didn’t she call him?
“The best bet would be to go home and get some sleep.”
“I’m staying.” Nate follows up.
Glancing around to the others they nod as well, “I’ll stay as long as I can before Louis sends the search parties, or comes and escorts me home himself.”
“I’m here too.” Jinny nods.
“I’ll see what I can do to have her moved to a room as soon as possible.” Doctor Michaelson replies, and with that leaves the three in the waiting room.
After a few minutes of silence Kate decides to take a seat near Jinny, “How you feeling?” the inspector asks.
“Okay, you know…” she shrugs setting her crutch down beside her, “I’m dealing with what has to be done.”
“Yeah…” Jinny nods, “We all are.” She was mostly speaking of herself. Slowly she was beginning to put her life back together, and feeling better upon doing it.
“I have a long road ahead of me.”
The woman nods, “Yeah, but looks like you’re keeping up with traffic.” She smiles.
“Yeah… I do my best.” Kate assures.

------------------------------------------------
After arriving back from the cafeteria yet again from buying another coffee after having given Kate her first Jinny sits back down as Magda rounds the corner to the waiting room holding her son’s hand.
“Hey”
She’s met with several hellos from the others, “How is she? You hear anything else?”
Lowering her coffee from her lips Kate shakes her head, “Nothing since she went into recovery.”
Moving over to a seat near the other two, Nate’s back to them all now Magda instructs her son to take a seat, “Gabe had a late gig tonight and I couldn’t get a babysitter for Ben.”
He rubs his eyes “She woke me up.”
“How’s Nate?” Magda asks in a low voice to the other two.
“He’s okay.”
“He was there when this all happened?”
“No…” her partner replies, “He was waiting for her, and she never showed up.”
“C.D. wasn’t even supposed to be there.” Kate speaks up looks to Magda, “I sent a couple officers to Marshall Roe’s apartment, and they’re who found her.”
“Oh god.” Magda shakes her head glancing over to her son that had now curled himself into a ball on the chair resting his head on the back of it, “When can she have visitors?”
“Not until she is moved to a room.” Jinny responds, “Says Doctor Michaelson…” she eyes her partner.
Magda’s eyes widen, “Jinny… can I talk to you for a minute?” she asks calmly.
Once in the hallway away from the waiting room out of earshot of the others Magda gives her partner a serious look, “That’s why you called me.”
“What?” Jinny narrows her eyes, “I called you because C.D. is your friend too.”
“No, Jinny, you had me pull my son out of bed and come down here because you want me to pull some strings with Jonah.”
“Well, he’s your boyfriend not mine.” She glances back at the distraught man, “Do it for Nate.”
Magda shakes her head, “Not anymore.”
“What?”
“I broke up with Jonah this afternoon.”
Jinny's eyes widen, “You what?”
“I gave Jonah his key back today. We’re not together.”
“Bet this is kind of awkward for you then.”
Her friend scoffs as she nods, “Yeah!” folding her arms in front of her.
Exhaling her voice lower now, “I didn’t know, Mag.”
“There are a lot of things you don’t know, Jinny.” Magda turns around and makes her way back to the waiting room leaving her friend in the hall.
:lol: Oh me...here we go again.
good stuff, thanks for postin' more

--------------------------------------------
A half an hour later Magda is standing in front of Doctor Michaelson’s office door after knocking. She had managed to leave her son out in the waiting room with Jinny by telling them she was grabbing a cup of coffee. Inhaling deeply she runs her hands over her hair dropping them quickly when Jonah’s door opens.
“Magda!” his eyes widen, and a smile makes its way across his face.
“Can I come in?”
Nodding before a word escapes his mouth, “Yeah, of course.” He moves aside allowing Magda to enter before he closes the door again.
She shakes her head, “Jonah…” putting her hands up to stop him from moving any closer, “That’s not what I’m here for.”
“Ooh.” He backs off, and adjusts his coat, “Your friend…” he pauses for a moment, “She’s going to be okay.”
Magda nods, “Yeah…”
“I told your friends they should just go home, and get a good night’s sleep. She’ll have her own room by morning.”
“Only family are allowed in right now?” she questions.
“That’s right.”
Glancing down at her feet then back at the doctor, “Jonah… I hate to have to ask you this.” She tilts her head sincerely.
“You want to see her?” he pauses, “Done.”
She shakes her head, “No not me.”
“Then who?”
“She doesn’t have any family around here.” The woman begins, “So I was wondering if you could maybe look the other way, and let her partner in to see her.”
Jonah was near his desk now, “Sure.” He looks back at the woman he’d been with until today, “Her partner can see her.”
Clasping her hands in front of her, “Thank you so much, Jonah.”
The room was silent now she inches closer to the door feeling uncomfortable, and wanting to avoid anything else; “I’ll go…” she reaches for the doorknob.
“We should talk.”
“Jonah…” he could hear the pleading in her voice.
He inhales, “We were so good together.”
Avoiding eye contact at all costs, “I can’t right now…”
“Why?”
“I need to get back.” She turns the knob, and makes a quick escape.

------------------------------------------------
The waiting room was silent all besides the sound of Benjamin’s laugh. Magda had left Ben with Jinny while she went to get a cup of coffee from the cafeteria.
Her son was now on the floor on his knees sitting up by the coffee table looking through a Discovery Magazine with Jinny.
“How about this one?” he questions pointing at an animal.
“Well…uh…hmm…” the woman studies the animal, “I…” pausing, “Am not quite sure what that is, but I bet it’s mean, and likes to eat little animals.” She assures.
Ben laughs, “No way!”
“Yes way!” She nods looking at it again, “Definitely…” adding in a lower voice, “Probably little bunnies.”
Magda rounds the corner with a cup of coffee in her hand.
“What?” Ben’s eyes widen.
Chuckling, “Nothing.”
“What about bunnies?” Magda smiles.
“Oh…” Jinny looks up with a guilty look on her face, “Nothing.”
Taking that as a fine enough answer she shrugs, “Where’s Cap?” noticing the woman wasn’t there.
“Louis showed up…”
“Took her home?”
“More like escorted her out.” Jinny laughs getting back up from the floor and sitting in a chair Magda taking a seat next to her.
Nate still stayed apart from the others.
A short time later the Doctor arrives in the waiting room. Nate stands up straight showing the first sign of life he had for several minutes.
“How is she?” he asks concerned.
Doctor Michaelson looks at him, “She’s still in recovery, but…” he glances at Magda for a moment. His eyes linger for a moment as he watches Benjamin turn and asks his mother something.
“But what?” Nate asks, “Is she okay?”
He turns his attention back to the man, “Yes. She’s doing well.” He glances at Magda for a moment that nods in return to his motion toward Nate.
“You’re her partner?”
“Yes.”
“Come with me.” Jonah motions for Nate to follow him.
“Mommy.” Ben looks back after seeing his mother nod. Only seeing the Doctor leaving, “Do you know him?”
“Uhh…” Magda stutters, “Yeah, Papi. He was mommy’s Doctor when she got shot.”
“Ohhh!”
Once Benjamin had gone back to what he was doing Jinny leans over to her partner, “Coffee my ass.”

Wow, thanks that's a big compliment. :)
Thanks everyone else also. I really appreciate the replies.
---------------------------------------------------
After following the Doctor down a long corridor the two arrive in front of the Intensive Care Unit. Turning around Jonah looks to the man before opening the door.
“Visiting hours are over, but I’m making an exception.” He states, “Giving the fact she has no family here, and you’re apparently closest to her.” He mumbles, “Since you’re partners and all. Just keep the noise to a minimum. Please.” With that Jonah turns around pushing the door of the I.C.U. open allowing Nate to enter a large room filled with ventilators, I.V.s, and other Medical equipment. His eyes move around the room to the many people laying motionless in their beds there eyes closed, and in a lot of cases a machine breathing for them.
‘Please.’ He silently prays, ‘Let C.D. be okay.’ The setting made him uneasy.
“This way.” Jonah motions wanting the man to keep up with him, several feet in front of him Nate recognizes his partner. Finally they arrive at the foot of her bed. Her usual glowing skin was pale, her hair had been moved back from her face, an IV occupies her forearm.
“You can get a chair from the side of the room.” Jonah motions near the nurse’s station, “I’ll inform the head nurse you’re a visitor.” With that the Doctor turns to leave.
“Wait…” Nate stops him, “Can she hear me?”
Jonah looks back to him, “She’s been out of surgery for a couple hours. The anesthetic should be wearing off. As long as she’s awake she’ll hear you.”
“Thanks.” After fetching a chair from the side of the room Nate was now sitting within the curtained area around C.D.’s bed. The Doctor had pulled the curtain around the two before he had left as not to disturb others.
First Nate only sits there watching the blonde breath in and out. He was just thankful she was alive… ‘I should have been there.’ He thinks.
Leaning forward in the chair he extends his hand, and pushes it under C.D.’s his palm facing up so he was holding her hand, but also trying not to disturb her rest.
“Mmmm…” his partner groans moving her head slightly letting it rest further into the pillow. She moves her fingers inadvertently caressing his hand.
“I’m here.” Nate assures.
Lifting her hand from Nate’s C.D. runs her hand over her cheek as she opens her eyes slightly, “You’re…” she swallows, moving her hand to her throat her mouth was so dry, “here.” She manages to finish.
“Yeah,” Nate smiles at her, “You’re going to be okay.”
Blinking her eyes slowly she then closes them completely as she goes to move her other hand to rub her eye, but stops when she feels a tug. Cracking her eyes open she sees the IV protruding from her arm, and decides against her previous actions laying her arm back down beside her.
Swallowing hard, “What time is it?”
“It’s…” Nate glances at his watch, “Four A.M.”
C.D. only lays there in silence she was obviously still feeling the anesthetic, but at least she was awake.
Moving his hand to hers slowly Nate takes a hold of her hand, “I’m…” he pauses trying to keep his composure, “I’m so glad you’re okay.” He finally manages to whisper to her. He didn’t whisper because he had to… he whispered because he had no choice but to. He lost control of his voice as the first tears from his eyes begin to flow.
iliveforjayandnancy2 08-24-2003, 08:39 AM mmmmmmmmmmoooooooooorrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!
I LOVED where you were talking about Nate sliding his hand under CD's and he said don't worry, I'm here. And she was like mmmm you described what she someone sounds like when they're in pain. I wouldn't be able to describe that no matter how hard I tried. Even if it's something as simple as mmm. LOL Anyways, there is something about Tracy and John that makes fans so attracted to them, when they act. It must be there talent, and passion for acting. I just wish they were together in real life, it would make it all the better. lol Lastly, if Lifetime doesn't write the beginning of season four the way YOU are writting it, then they NEED to move over and make way for MIRANDA!

Turning from the hall into the waiting area Nate only sees Jinny alone asleep in the waiting room chairs, her head propped up by her hand. Moving over to her he taps the side of her arm.
Opening her eyes slowly Jinny looks up to Nate, and remembers where she was, “How was she?” she asks, “I must have fallen asleep for a minute.” Sitting up regaining composure she checks the time of her watch, “Magda took Ben home a little over an hour ago.”
It was the first smile she’d seen on his face since this all started happening, “She’s okay.” He assures, “By the time I left the anesthetic from surgery was almost all worn off, and they were about to inject her with more. I thought I’d let her get some rest.”
Nodding the woman smiles softly, “That’s great…” she says sincerely, “You need a ride to your car?”
“Yeah…” he nods, “So I can get home and get cleaned up a little.”
Jinny stands straightening out her jacket, “You have the day off?” she asks rubbing her eye as the two begin down the hall.
After being home less than twenty-minutes Nate had just turned on the shower so he could get cleaned up before going back to the hospital. Once shedding his clothes the man gets inside, and lets the hot water run down his broad shoulders over his body. Exhaling, feeling his muscles loosen he takes this time to let himself relax some from the long night. After several moments he finally puts his head under the nozzle of the shower wetting his hair. Grabbing the shampoo he lathers his hair up, and then grabs for his bath sponge to wash his body as his cell phone begins to ring just outside the cracked bathroom door on his nightstand.
“Dammit.” He says pushing his head back under the running water. Once his hair is rinsed somewhat Nate pulls the shower curtain back, grabbing his towel on the way he makes a dash to the ringing phone.
“Hello?” he answers finally still trying to get the towel around his waist, which isn’t quite as easy as it may seem with only one hand, “Yeah, this is Nate Basso.” He states. After a short conversation he hangs the phone up, and goes back into the bathroom to shut off the water. The short shower he had had to be good enough. He had somewhere else to be right now somewhere more important.

Pulling her covers from her body Raina sits up and pushes the off button on her alarm clock. After stretching she stands from her bed, and straightens out her lilac silk pajamas. Walking over to the window in her room she pulls the curtains aside looking out over the dampened streets, the rain had poured off and on all night, in some cases the thunder outside even had woken her up. Pulling open her window she inhales the cool air and the scent of wet pavement before leaving her room heading for the kitchen. Standing over the toaster waiting for her English muffin to be warm Raina rubs her eyes regretting having gotten in late last night. Although, she didn’t regret the date she had been on Johnny was different from anyone she had dated before, and appose from public opinion him being professional baseball player had nothing to do with it. In fact, she herself didn’t exactly know what it was about him that drew her to him. Persistence?
Exiting the elevator on the third floor Nate makes his way over to the nurse’s station a small yet elegant bouquet of flowers in his hand that he had made a quick stop for this morning before heading home, not having wanted to stop on the way to the hospital.
“What room is Candace De Lorenzo in.” He asks the woman behind the desk.
Glancing down to her papers instinctively the Nurse looks back up before finding the information he had asked for, “Are you Nate Basso?” she questions.
“Yeah…”
The woman smiles, “You sure got here fast. I’m the one that called you.” standing up and grabbing a clipboard, “I’ll take you to her.” She begins down the hall Nate just beside her, “She’s been asking for you.”
“Yeah, that’s what you said on the phone.”
“It’s nice, you know.” She states, “To see two people so close.” Arriving at the door she glances back to the man, “She’s awake, but she just got some more medication for the pain.”
“That’s okay.” Nate assures glancing down at the flowers in his hand.
“Okay.” The lady smiles and opens the door, “Candace, you have a visitor.”
C.D. turns her head to look at the door where Nate was entering, “Hey You!” she smiles gently from her reclining position in bed.
The nurse closes the door when she leaves, “Hey!” Nate smiles at her, “I brought you some flowers.”
“They’re beautiful.” The blonde assures, “I love them…” her voice trails off, “But not as much as I love the person holding them.” She picks up again.
He feels himself blush slightly, “Where would you like them?”
“Ooh, anywhere.” She motions around the room, “Anywhere is just fine. I’m flattered you brought anything.”
Once putting vase filled with flowers down on a nearby shelf the man turns around, “Of course I would.” He couldn’t help but smile at the huge grin on her face, “How are you doing?” he takes a seat by her bed.
“I’m doing just fine!” she nods, “I’m glad you’re here. I asked the nurse to get you… seemed like forever.”

#1_Nancy_McKeon 08-26-2003, 11:28 PM I'm going to be so far behind because of this... but here you go anyway. :)
--------------------------------------------
“I’m doing just fine!” she nods, “I’m glad you’re here. I asked the nurse to get you… seemed like forever.”
“I was in the shower when she called.”
“Getting all clean.” C.D. smiles more and lays her head back onto the bed.
Nate nods, “That’s right.”
Suddenly her face was solemn, “How is Liz?”
Glancing down at the ground Nate didn’t know how to answer her.
“Give it to me straight, Partner.” Her voice almost as if she was joking she was obviously feeling the pain meds.
Looking up into C.D.’s blue eyes, “She didn’t make it.”
“Serves the bitch right.” Her first reply, and then she’s silent for a moment looking away from her partner toward the opened window of her room. Upon looking back tears were escaping her eyes, “She shot me, Nate.”
“Yeah…” his voice sincere, he reaches for her hand.
Looking down upon her blankets to hold the tears away it wasn’t working she looks back to Nate, “I was so scared in there.” She remembers, “I thought of you. When I was laying there bleeding…” she trails off, her voice lower when she finishes, “I thought of you.”
Nate inhales deeply he didn’t know how to take respond. He was glad she thought of him, but also was saddened by it. He squeezes her hand gently, “I thought of you too. I didn’t know what happened.”
“I want you to stay with me.”
“I’ll be here.” Nate assures, “I was here all night.” He blinks feeling his eyes dampened, “Do you remember be telling you I was going home to get cleaned up, and would be right back?”
Closing her eyes the blonde leans her head back to the pillow and then looks back to her partner, “I don’t know…”
“It’s okay.” He smiles softly.
Looking to him she sees beneath his eyes glisten, “Ooh.” She narrows her eyes, “You’re crying.” She moves her hand from his to extend to his face, “I’m okay.”
“I know.” He nods.
C.D. stokes the side of his cheek, “I do remember…” she states, “Vaguely.”
Nate only smiles as he reaches up touching her hand on his face.
“Stay with me okay?”
“My whole day is cleared.” Nate assures, “Just for you.”
C.D. smiles keeping her hand on his face she leans back some onto her bed, closing her eyes.
Taking the woman’s hand from his face Nate lowers it to the bed wrapping both his hands around it, cradling hers. He only smiles to himself as he watches her breath. The medication had kicked in, he knew, normally C.D. usually wasn’t as open. He thinks, or so emotional with ups and downs every minute. She was someone stable, compassionate, everything he needed and more.

#1_Nancy_McKeon 08-30-2003, 11:10 PM Sorry for the delay, but here is more! I've written quite a bit today!
-------------------------------------------------------------
A purse over her shoulder and a cup of coffee in her hand Inspector Washington enters through the swing doors of the Division. Once to her desk Raina puts her Styrofoam cup onto her desk taking her time to look toward the Captain’s office. She dreaded seeing Spivey each morning… there was only few people she actually hated, but he made the list. Exhaling Raina puts her purse down, hearing the door to the Office behind her open she stands up straight almost bracing herself for the sound of Spivey’s orders.
“Raina.”
Her eyes widen as she turns around quickly to see the face to the one she heard, “Captain!” her face was bright as she saw the woman standing in the doorway, “You’re back!” she exclaims and jumps with excitement.
Kate smiles, “That’s right. You knew I’d be back.”
“You can’t stay away!” the woman says as she makes her way over, carefully giving Kate a hug.
“I think Louis is beginning to realize that.”
“Just wait until the others find out!” Raina assures.
Here eyes set on the woman, “They already know.”
“Oh!” her face drops, “Then why am I the last to know!” she whines.
“C.D.’s in the hospital.” Kate adjusts her crutch so she was leaning on it more.
Raina was silent for a moment as she just stands there. “What happened?” she finally asks.
“Marshall Roe was on the other side.”
She shakes her head, “I don’t understand.”
“C.D. went to see her last night she apparently figured it out first.”
“Where is Liz now?”
Kate’s face is solemn, “Dead.” She pauses, “C.D. shot her.”
“Is C.D. okay?”
“She was shot too. The bullet grazed the side of her spleen.” Kate glances at the watch on her arm, “She’s in her own room by now.”
“Oh my god, Captain.” Raina went silent and then adds, "I will drop by on my lunch hour.”
Nodding, “She’s not alone. Nate was staying with her.”
“Good.”
The woman goes to turn back for her office, but then remembers what she wanted to ask, “Raina, can you get in contact with Jinny and Magda. Tell them I need them in here as soon as possible.”
“No problem, Captain.” Raina grins, heading for her desk.
CD DeLorenzo 08-30-2003, 11:15 PM hey I didn't even know this part yet... but great nevertheless. LOL poor Raina, to find out as the last one ;) No news to spread

Knocking on the opened door of C.D.’s room Jinny waits to enter until the two occupying the room look to her.
“Hey…” she smiles and comes inside seeing C.D. for the first time since she had been loaded up in the ambulance last night. She looked better, but her skin was still pale and her eyes glossy.
“Hi, Jin.” Nate nods to her as she enters, the blonde’s hand in his.
Lifting the bouquet in her hand, “Brought you some flowers.” Her eyes catch site of more flowers on the counter, “Looks like someone beat me to it.” She smiles figuring it was Nate.
“Thanks, Jin.” C.D.’s voice weak.
Narrowing her eyes, “You doing okay there, CD?” the woman asks making it to the bed, still standing.
The blonde nods, “Yeah…” she takes her hand from Nate’s trying to make herself more comfortable in bed she winces having tightened her muscles in her stomach too much with that little move, “the meds are wearing off.”
“Ooh…” she wasn’t good at this, “I hope you feel better.” Clasping her hands in front of her hoping she was giving enough support.
This brings a slight smile to C.D.’s pain painted face, “Thanks… in time.” Taking the remote in her hand she pushes the button to page the nurse, “I’m sorry guys…” she exhales.
“Oh no…” Jinny shakes her head, “Don’t be.” Her cell begins to ring.
“It’s okay.” Nate touches her arm.
Pulling her cell phone from her pocket, “Exstead.”
Watching Jinny a moment before turning to Nate, “You think…” she pauses a moment trying her best to talk through the pain, “I will be able to ever go back to work?”
Her partner nods assuring her, “Of course.” He strokes her arm with his finger tips, “You’ll heal… you heard the Doctor.”
“Yeah…” her voice fades, “It just doesn’t…” she moves her hand slowly to her stomach over the bandages, “feel like it now.”
“That’ll pass.”

#1_Nancy_McKeon 08-31-2003, 09:30 PM Thanks for replying guys. I have 22 pages written. I was on a roll last night.
-----------------------------------------------
Watching Jinny a moment before turning to Nate, “You think…” she pauses a moment trying her best to talk through the pain, “I will be able to ever go back to work?”
Her partner nods assuring her, “Of course.” He strokes her arm with his finger tips, “You’ll heal… you heard the Doctor.”
“Yeah…” her voice fades, “It just doesn’t…” she moves her hand slowly to her stomach over the bandages, “feel like it now.”
“That’ll pass.”
The stout shadow of the nurse is seen on the white tile of the floor just before she is visible in the doorway, “How you doing?” she asks entering.
“Not so good…”
“Oooh, what’s wrong, dear?” she asks sincerely making her way around the bed Jinny stepping back to make room for her.
“Pain.”
The nurse smiles sincerely to her as she nods, “Okay, I’ll page the doctor to come in and check you out, and I’ll be right back with something for the pain.”
C.D. only nods at the woman watching her leave.
Flipping her phone closed Jinny looks down to C.D.., “That was Raina. I need to go.” Pushing her phone into her coat pocket, “Cap needs me in A.S.A.P.”
“Thanks for coming.” The woman replies in low voice, “Sorry I wasn’t so…”
Shaking her head, “Don’t worry about it.” Jinny pats C.D. on the shoulder, “You take care, ok?”
The nurse returns into the room with the medication, “Here we go!” she smiles.
“Bye guys.” After a quick wave Jinny was gone.
--------------------------------
I'll post again, most likely, in a little while.

-----------------------------------------------
After a short stop in the lobby getting herself a cup of coffee from the “Seattle’s Best” vendor Magda now comes through the double doors of the division not able to say anything before her partner peeks her head out of Kate’s office, “In here Mag.”
By the time the woman reaches the door of the office Jinny had already taken her seat across from Kate again.
“Good morning.” Captain motions her to close the door.
She does as the woman asks, and then takes a seat also, “So what’s this all about?”
Turning Jinny hands her partner the case folder she has in her hands. Opening the folder two-airline tickets fall into her lap, “What’s this?”
“I need you and Jinny to extradite a woman by the name of Kimberly Lopez back here on murder charges.”
Magda glances back at the tickets, “Las Vegas, Nevada?”
Nodding once, “Inspectors DeLucca and Roberts can’t make it.” Kate takes her glasses from her face, “Spivey over looked their days off.”
Moving the tickets in front of her, “It says the departing time is 4:30 today.”
“It is.”
Setting the folder on the desk, “I can’t do this, Captain.” She leans back into the chair.
“Why not?”
Giving her a look, “Yeah, why not?”
“Benjamin!” she reminds them, “My son. Gabe works nights until next Sunday.”
“What about your Mom?” Jinny asks.
Looking across the desk, “Will you give me a few minutes?” Magda questions, “Let me call a couple people?”
Sitting up in her seat Kate nods once, “Just let me know before noon. That’s at the latest… even then I might be pushing my luck to find someone to replace you.”
“Thanks, Captain.”
The two Inspectors are soon excused from the office to go home. It was 11:30 now 5 hours until departure.

------------------------------------------
Coming from the restroom down the hall from C.D.’s room Nate runs his hands together making sure they were completely dry. Once CD had fallen asleep from the medication he had moseyed down to the cafeteria to grab a bite to eat. The nurse had offered to give him a meal in the room, but he didn’t want to commotion to wake the patient. Turning down the hall to C.D.’s room Nate stops for a moment once he sees the person whom stood in front of the nurse’s station, a small bouquet of flowers occupying her hand. He tries to creep by as if he didn’t see her
“Nate,” the short woman waves.
She had caught him.
“Hey! What are you doing here?”
Looking to the flowers Lily then glances back to her ex’s face, “Magda told me about C.D.”
“Yeah…” he changes his weight onto his other leg nervously, “She’s doing better.”
Smiling, “That’s great, Nate, really.” She notices his uncomfort, “I’m sorry.” Pausing, “Just give C.D. these from me.” Pushing the flowers in his direction. She knew she shouldn’t be there, but she wanted to be there for Nate. Even if the one that got shot was the one he left her for… maybe this way if things didn’t work out she’d be in the top list of possibles.
“No, Lily…” he exhales, “I think she’d rather get them from you.”
A slight smile comes over her face, “You don’t mind?”
A few more words are exchanged before the two head back to C.D.’s room. Knocking on the opened door and peeking his head inside Nate sees his partner awake, “Want visitors.”
Smiling through the drugs, “If it’s you… anytime.”
Nate smiles and moves the rest of the way in Lily just behind him.
Blinking, “Hey Lily.”
“I brought you flowers.” The woman puts on a happy face, which of course seemed hard now that she knew it was her that took her boyfriend away. She be lying to herself if she said she didn't hold a grudge, but she didn't want to stay home and do nothing. Maybe this way Nate would realize how kind and thoughtful she really was... even under the circumstances.

#1_Nancy_McKeon 09-02-2003, 05:42 PM Here's more for all you wanting people! :)
--------------------------------------------------------
Nate smiles and moves the rest of the way in Lily just behind him.
Blinking, “Hey Lily.”
“I brought you flowers.” The woman puts on a happy face, which of course seemed hard now that she knew it was her that took her boyfriend away. She’d be lying to herself if she said she didn’t hold a grudge, but she didn't want to stay home and do nothing. Maybe this way Nate would realize how kind and thoughtful she really was... even under the circumstances.
C.D. nods seeing them, “Everyone has.” She giggles, “I don’t know what I’m going to do with them all.” She catches sight of the daffodils that Lily bought. Almost knowing they were in her presence made her want sneeze, but she held it back.
“I hope you like them.” The Puerto Rican smiles putting the vase onto the desk containing the rest of the flowers CD had received, “They’re my favorite.” Positioning the flowers to look better.
Blinking, “That’s nice, Lily.” The blonde inhales deeply trying to keep the sneeze she knew was coming inside.
Lily grabs a chair from the side of the room and pulls it up beside Nate, and takes a seat. “So how are you doing?”
Nodding, “I’m doing okay.”
Lily smiles, “That’s nice.”
“How’d you find out?” C.D. rubs her nose as she lay reclined in bed; “Excuse me if I sound less than enthusiastic.”
Raising her eyebrow the woman moves a little in her seat, “Magda told me. I thought I could…”
“You thought you could come down here, and what, Lily?” C.D. interrupts her.
“Help?”
Shaking her head the blonde chuckles, “The nurses have it under control.” her voice slurred.
“Well maybe…” Lily glances at the man beside her, “Nate wants me here.”
“Lily…” C.D. pauses for a moment closing her eyes slowly shaking her head, “Nate doesn’t want you by him even if you were a Britney Spears look-a-like.” She opens her eyes again when she's finished, looking directly at Lily. C.D. laughs at herself, “A…” the drugs were evidently talking for her now, “Latino Britney Spears… yeah… ” she corrects herself.
Nate only sat aside trying to keep out of this topic. Even though the Britney Spears comment made him smirk.
“Fine!” Lily stands up, “Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to come see you.”
C.D. smirks slightly looking to Nate, Lily still staring at her, “So perceptive this one is.”
Grabbing angrily for her purse string to put it on her shoulder, but instead it snaps letting it drop to the floor and numerous things fall out. C.D. only sat in her bed chuckling, Lily now out of her eye sight,on the floor picking up her items and shoving them back in her purse, “I’m leaving.” She finally says before standing.
“Bye.”
Lily makes it to the door, and looks back, “Nate?”
Raising his eyebrows, “Yea?” he asks confused.
“Call me.” With that she leaves in a fiery.
Looking back to Nate, “Get down there and see if you can find me a new lipstick.” She laughs.

------------------------------------------------------------
Nate only shakes his head with a chuckle, “Well that was…” he pauses for a word.
“Interesting?” C.D. asks, “Dramatic?”
“I didn’t know you hated her so much.”
Glancing at the flowers and then back at Nate, “Who said I hate her?”
“C.D.”
“Yes, Nate?” she smiles rubbing her nose.
Smirking slightly, “You’re a terrible liar.”
“Nate.”
“Yes, C.D.?” he mocks her words from before.
“Get those.” She points to the flowers, “Out of here.”
“Why? Don’t you like them?”
“I don’t know what I’m allergic to more. Dandelions or Lilies.”
Nate stands up trying to hold back a smirk as he makes it over to the flowers.
“Take them up to maternity and see if someone wants them.” She catches sight of the clear blue vase as he picks it up to take them out, “Hey…let me see that.”
“What?” he asks already near the door.
“Bring them to me.” She motions him over to her. Once he is close enough C.D. takes the flowers from his hand, grabs a fist full of dandelions from the vase and moves them to him water dripping from the stems across her blanket.
“What are you doing?”
C.D. looks adoringly at the vase, “I like this.” She smiles putting it to the table near her, “Just take the flowers.”
“Umm…” he nods at her odd behavior. He’ll be happy when she was back to the person he knew, “I’ll be back.” And with that he leaves.
“Aaaaa….” C.D. tries to hold it back, but she can’t any longer and sneezes, “OWW!” she exclaims the sudden muscle tightness hurting her stomach.

------------------------------------
After stepping into the little diner Jinny takes her dark glasses from her face and glances around for the person she was in search of. Exhaling she turns back around to see if his car was in the parking lot.
“Jinny!” the man rests his hand to the side of her arm.
She turns around to see her brother whom straightaway hugs her, “I’m glad you could make it.” He held her to him for a moment longer.
“I told you I’d be here.” Jinny follows her brother to the table near the back of the diner.
Once taking their seats across from one another the siblings are then confronted by a waiter whom ask them their drink order and then takes a leave after writing the order onto his notepad.
“Dad told me what you did.”
Exhaling, “What I did?” she questions. She knew exactly what her little brother was talking about, but she still took offense, “I was on the job. I did it by the book.”
Her brother nods, “He also told me that.”
Jinny only sits there for a moment silent.
“I’m proud of you, Jin.” Casey admits, “You did a good job, and I’m sure if John Jr. was here he’d tell you the same.”
Her voice relatively lower now, “Thanks.” She studies her hands in front of her.
“I’d be lying if I told you I didn’t feel relieved after I talked to Dad.” He pauses for a moment; “The public are safer now that he’s off the streets.”
“I know.” She assures with a nod, “He had a lot of problems…” she’s silent for a moment as her brother watches her, “I told him.” Jinny says as she looks back up to her brother.
Narrowing his eyes, “Told him what?”
“That…” swallowing, “One of the cops that he killed was my brother.” She shakes her head, “I wanted him to know that. That the people he and his buddies went around the city killing weren’t just clay pigeons they were real people. With real lives.”
Casey’s face was solemn he tried to hold back the emotion he felt, but as he watches a tear escape his sister’s eye he knew it was okay to reveal how he felt, “You did a good job.” He states again, extending his hand to his sister’s.
“You know…” she pauses for a moment, “You kill somebody, and…” her voice trails off as she shrugs a soft smile forming across her lips through the tears, “People say you did a good job, but how is that?” she asks, “It doesn’t matter who it is… or what the circumstance were you still killed somebody, and it’s not okay or a good job. It’s a terrible job, but…” she pauses as she wipes her hand across her eyes, “The truth is we put ourselves, as police officers in positions everyday where we may have to use excessive force to control the situation.” Jinny shakes her head, “We take lives in our hands, and we have to pray what we do is right…”

-----------------------------------------------
Pulling onto the main street from the road she lives on Ben sat in the front seat, his backpack on the floorboard in the back overflowing with things she was taking to his grandmother’s for the night.
“You got your pajama’s right?” Magda asks as she makes a left turn.
“Yeah…” Ben folds his arms and exhales.
Glancing over for a second, “What’s wrong?”
“I don’t see why I can’t go to Vegas with you!”
“It’s work, Papi. Just like you can’t go to the Division with me.”
Ben shrugs, “I’ve been there though.” He states and looks out the window then back to this mother, “I haven’t been to Vegas.”
“Neither have I.”
“Then we can go together!” he grins.
Magda shakes her head, “We got to bring home a bad guy with us, Benjamin.”
“So.”
“So… we have to take a plane there.”
“Cool!” Ben sits up in his chair, “I want to go! I didn’t know you were going on a plane!” he was enthusiastic about it.
“Yeah, you can go in my place. I’m not excited about the trip.”
“Why not?”
“I don’t like plane rides.”
Ben sighs leaning back into the seat more, “I don’t know if I do…” he glances at his Mom, “I have never been on one.”
“You were when you were a baby.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, grandma took us to San Diego to see Uncle Julio when you were little tiny.”
“Cool.”
“Yep.” She smiles as sprinkles of rain begin to hit her windshield, “Dang it.” She refrained from saying ‘bad’ words in front of Ben, “I hope a storm doesn’t blow in before take off. I’m going to be a nervous wreck.”
“I could go with you.” Benjamin found another opening, “I could hold your hand, Mom. Be with you.” He assures.
Her son’s words bring a slight smile to her face, “I’d love for you to come, papi…”
He doesn’t let her finish, “Great. I will.”
“BUT…” she starts again, “But you can’t. I’m sure you’ll have a lot of fun at grandma’s.”
Ben folds his arms in front of him, “I never get to see you anymore, Mom.” He sighs, “You’re always at work until late.”
“I’m sorry, Papi.” Magda reaches over and strokes her hand through her son’s hair.
Inhaling, “Jinny gets to see you more than your own son.” He states, “How does that make you feel, Mom?”
Narrowing her eyes Magda knew what he was trying to do, “Ben, stop it. You know I love spending time with you, and I do whenever I can.”
“Fine.”
“Fine what, Benjamin?” his mother asks as she pulls into the shopping center, and headed through the parking lot to the McDonald’s in the corner.
“You don’t have to take me because I don’t want to go anyway.” He replies, “I just wanted to go and see all the lights. I don’t care if you spend all night at work.”
“Ben, how could you say that?”
“Easy.”
Magda was now pulling into McDonald’s drive thru as her cell phone begins to ring. Answering it, “Hello?” it was Lily.
iliveforjayandnancy2 10-24-2003, 03:06 PM Oh, REAL GOOD MIRANDA! GO AHEAD! Leave us hanigng! See if we care!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha But seriously, as I was reading that fan fic it was so believeable! For a while I thought I was reading a TD transcript! IT's totally got lines in it that I can picture happening on TD. Like everything that Ben was saying, like about Mag. spending more time with Jinny then with him. And it's the truth! Then I was like oh Miranda wrote this! Wow what talent!!!!! So now you've got a swelled head...so write more!
iliveforjayandnancy2 12-06-2003, 03:14 PM oooooooook it was Lily. And??? I think you forgot about one of your fics! hehehehe
#1_Nancy_McKeon 12-08-2003, 04:08 PM Here's some more. I love this scene. lol
--------------------------------------
Magda was now pulling into McDonald’s drive thru as her cell phone begins to ring. Answering it, “Hello?” it was Lily.
“Welcome to McDonald’s may I take your order?”
“One minute.” Magda moves the phone from her ear, “What do you want Benjamin?”
“Cheese burger.”
She scans the menu for something she wanted, Lily complaining about how C.D. treated her in the hospital and Benjamin talking under his breath.
“Lily, Lily, she was on medication. She was just shot last night.” Magda tries to calm her.
“What was that Ma’am?” the McDonald’s worker asks.
“I hope Jinny laughs at you for being scared about the plane.” Benjamin says.
“She was just shot last night!” Magda repeats to the McDonald’s worker.
“Who was shot?” the woman asks over the speaker.
“Oh…” she covers her phone, “That was for my sister. I will take ummm…” she still hadn’t decided, “Gimme a moment.”
“Okay.”
“She called me a Latino Britney Spears, Magda!” Lily’s voice was high on the phone.
Ben shakes his head and sighs louder than normal, “Vegas, Mom, I want to go to VEGAS with you.”
“Shhh… Benjamin be quiet. Mommy’s trying to talk on the phone.” She was still scanning the menu.
“Doesn’t she know Latino is a Man Puerto Rican? I’m a woman, Magda. I’m a LATINA! Really.. I didn’t know the people you worked with her so screwed up.”
“YOU CARE ABOUT THE PHONE MORE THAN ME!” Benjamin raises his voice.
“Yes, Lily, you’re a Latina.” Magda rolles her eyes at her sister, “Okay, I’m ready. One cheeseburger, a chicken salad, and two sprites.” She says out the window to the McDonald’s worker. The rain was beginning to come down harder as raindrops hit her in the face.
Her son sits in the passenger’s seat dry, “I hope you get soaked, and look really bad for your plane ride.”
“I could see a LATINA Britney Spears, but not Latino. What was she thinking. And then… I broke my purse RIGHT there in front of Nate… everything fell out, Magda, my make-up… tampons! Oh my god I was so embarrassed.”
“Benjamin, ENOUGH!” she growls at her son and then turns back to where the woman on the speaker was saying something, “Can you say that again?” she moves the phone back to her mouth, “Lily be quiet a minute.”
The woman recites Magda’s order to her, “No that was two Sprites. Not two apple pies.” She corrects.
Benjamin now had his window down and his head outside letting his hair get soaked, “I want an apple pie!” he insists.
She looks over to where her son was seated after hearing his voice muffled by something and sees his body half way out the window, “BENJAMIN get in here, and seatbelt yourself back. The car is still running, young man.” She thought she had taught him that already.
“Thanks.” Magda says to the woman in the speaker after getting the order right and reciting her her price… she pulls up to the next window after Benjamin got himself inside.
“MY tampons fell right onto the floor. One hit Nate’s shoe!” Lily complains.
“I’m sorry you had a bad day.” Magda replies as she hands the money to the woman at the window and then leaning into the backseat where she had a blanket folded on the seat and hands it to Ben, “Dry yourself.”
“With a blanket?” he raises his eyebrows.
“YES! Do it!” she growls, “You’re going to catch the flu.”
