Broken Promises

[Bang A Gong]

Alright, this is my first attempt at writing a TD fic so forgive me if it isn't good. If you are a Teddy fan and if you get offended when people make him out to be a bad person, then I suggest that you don't read this.

Comments and suggestions are more then welcome........actually, they are NEEDED!!!!! If none of you like it, I'm not going to post anymore parts.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Broken Promises: Part 1

There she sat, full of shame and sadness. How could she have done that. . . how could she have hurt Teddy, the man who she truly loved.

"I can't believe you got drunk and slept with another man," Teddy's voice was firm. He was pacing around the room, breathing deeply.

Jinny gulped and her eyes filled with tears, "You know how I am, those are my two bad habits; drinking and sleeping around. All I can do is apologize," after saying that, the tears spilled and streamed down her cheeks.

Teddy kneeled down in front of her, "How could you possibly do something so dishonest and irresponsible and expect me to forgive you? It's not going to happen! What you did is unforgivable," his face was red with anger and his stare was piercing; it was as if he was looking right through her. The expression on his face frightened her and she began to shake with fear.

"You're scaring me," Jinny said in a shakey voice.

Teddy put his head down. There was an uncomfortable silence for a few moments until Teddy broke it by jumping up and shouting, "YOU SLUT!"

"Teddy," Jinny stood up to meet his gaze, "I. . ." but before she could finish, Teddy hit her very hard just below her eye and his slap was so strong that it sent her flying into the wall. For a few minutes, she lay there, her left hand over the spot on her face where he had just struck her. She was in utter shock - she had NEVER seen Teddy that upset before.

"Jin," Teddy began sobbing, "I'm so sorry,". He leaned down, trying to help her up, but she just waved her right hand and said, "Get out!"

"I. . ." Teddy began, but Jinny rose to her feet and screamed, "GET OUT!"

Teddy shook his head in disbelief and left. 'What have I done?' he asked himself in his mind on his way out.

Jinny leaped onto her couch and began bawling her eyes out.

- NEXT DAY: AT THE DIVISION -

"Where is Jinny?" Kate asked in an irritated tone.

CD, Angela and Magda all simply shrugged.

"She's late. . . once again," Kate put her hands on her hips.

Merely a second after Kate said that, Jinny walked into The Division. Her eyes were all bloodshot and puffy and there was a large bruise under her left eye. Everyone gasped.

Kate arched an eyebrow with worry, "What is your excuse for being late?" she asked in a concerned tone.

Jinny sat down at her desk and sighed deeply. She was late because she didn't feel like getting up. . . she just wanted to stay in bed and sleep away the rest of her life. She hadn't gotten any sleep at all due to the fact that she spent the entire night crying her eyes out.

"I guess I don't have one," she lied.

"But you always do," Kate was worried.

Jinny shook her head, "Not this time."

"Can I see you in my office?" Kate asked.

Jinny nodded and followed Kate into her office.

"Take a seat," Kate said, sitting down behind her desk.

"What's the problem?" Jinny questioned.

"I should be asking you that same question," Kate responded.

"What?" Jinny was confused.

"How did you get that bruise under your eye?" Kate inquired.

Jinny rolled her eyes, "It's nothing."

Kate sighed, "Yes it is, don't lie. I'm guessing that it's related to the reason why your eyes are so bloodshot and puffy."

Jinny grew angry - she hated it when people stuck their noses into her personal life.

"None of your business," Jinny replied through gritted teeth.

Kate sighed, "You can go back to work."

Jinny got up and walked out the door. She made her way back to her desk and CD, Angela and Magda were staring at her. She tried to ignore them and sat down, but she felt their eyes on her and became annoyed.

"Quit looking at me," she turned around and snapped at them.

CD and Angela quickly turned their heads but Magda got up and walked over to Jinny.

"What's up with you?" Magda asked.

"Nothing," Jinny was getting agitated.

"Jin," Magda touched her shoulder gently, "You've been crying, tell me what's wrong."

Jinny looked up into Magda's worried eyes, "Alright, I'll tell you. Follow me to the restroom."

Sourbabie, it seems to me that this is

I've read, this just doesn't sound like
Theodore. He really seems to be a sweet
and gentle sort of person. I hope you don't
make him a villian like Blaine was made in
some of the FOL fanfics.

I just want to inform you that in fanfictions, the author has complete control over the characters and plot. Therefore, if my story is going to focus on domestic abuse (which I will try to avoid) then so be it. And if Teddy is going to be a villian (which I will try to avoid, too,) then so be it. I really do appreciate your comments though.

Teddy: You all set for tomorrow night?
Jinny: I have my bullet proof vest polished if that's what you mean.
Teddy: Come on, Jinny.
Jinny: Oh, yes. Actually... I bought a dress.
Teddy: You did?
Jinny: There is no guarantee, however, that I am going to wear it.
Teddy: So, uh... I don't know. What else did you buy?
Jinny: How do you know I bought you anything for your birthday? Maybe I plan on knitting you a sweater or... give you something much more organic.
Teddy: Well, you do give good organic.

Teddy: What's this dress look like anyway?
Jinny: Oh, yeah, OK. Low cut, skin tight, animal print, ruffle at the bottom. Don't you have lawyering to do?

Teddy: Be honest with me, not my parents!
Jinny: All right, fine. You want honesty? Why don't you let me tell you a little bit about my family? See, I never really had a birthday party unless you wanna count my 15th, when my father showed up for cake, plastered in his underwear! Oh... yeah, by the way, my mom couldn't make it that year either because, well, sadly, six months earlier she blew her brains out!!!!!
Teddy: Jinny, my God.
Jinny: As for my brother, ugh... yeah, John... see, he just doesn't like you unless your American, white, and straight... and for me, a few weeks ago when I had that nut case after me... yeah, I had to make a little list, of all the guys that I've slept with in the last two years. I couldn't remember some of their names.
Teddy: Stop.
Jinny: Ya know what? This is who I am, this is my family!!!! Come on, it's your turn. Go ahead, flash that all-American, prep school, choir boy smile and you tell me that it doesn't matter!

A day with Blair is like walking up San Juan Hill. Every time you turn around she's yelling CHARGE!

On April 24, 2008, Dana and I are to meet in LA and handcuff ourselves to Nancy McKeon [Jinny Dearest] and Jay Harrington [Teddy Dearest], and you're not. Hahaha!

Teddy: So, uh... I don't know. What else did you buy?
Jinny: How do you know I bought you anything for your birthday? Maybe I plan on knitting you a sweater or... give you something much more organic.
Teddy: Well, you do give good organic.

Teddy: Be honest with me, not my parents!
Jinny: All right, fine. You want honesty? Why don't you let me tell you a little bit about my family? See, I never really had a birthday party unless of course you wanna count my 15th, when my father showed up for cake, plastered in his underwear! Oh... yeah, by the way, my mom couldn't make it that year either because, well, sadly, six months earlier she BLEW HER BRAINS OUT!!!!!
Teddy: Jinny, my God.
Jinny: As for my brother, ugh... yeah, John... see, he just doesn't like you unless your American, white, and straight... and for me... a few weeks ago when uh... I had that nut case after me... yeah, I had to make a little list, of all the guys that I've slept with in the last two years. I couldn't remember some of their names.
Teddy: Stop.

Broken Promises: Part 2

"Alright," Magda said, "I'm listening."

"Well," Jinny was hesitant, "Last night, Teddy got upset at me and. . ."

Magda's jaw dropped and her eyes grew large with astonishment; she realized what had happened.

"He HIT you?!" Magda shouted.

"Yes, but it was my fault," Jinny explained as the tears spilt from her eyes, "I got drunk the night before and slept with another guy. I deserved it!"

Magda couldn't believe what she was hearing, "Jinny, you didn't deserve to be hit! You shouldn't have done what you did, but Teddy still had NO right to hit you!"

Jinny became furious, "I shouldn't have told you about it!"

"Jin," Magda placed her hands on Jinny's shoulders, "You're my friend and I care about you. I don't want anything bad to happen to you."

"Nothing is going to happen to me," Jinny assured her.

"What are you going to do?" Magda asked.

"What?" Jinny asked with confusion.

"You can press charges, or file a restraining order. . . or both," Magda informed her.

Jinny rolled her eyes, "I'm not doing anything!"

Magda sighed deeply, "Fine, it's your life, not mine. Do what you want. Let him hurt you again."

Having voiced her opinion, Magda walked out of the restroom. Jinny stood there alone for a moment with her head tilted back. Part of her knew that Magda was right but the other part disagreed.

"He didn't mean it," she told herself, "He's a good guy."

She then headed out the door.

- AT THE DIVISION -

"Cases," Kate announced, sauntering out of her office with folders in her hands.

"Reide, De Lorenzo, 36 year old Ed Lohan - beat up a bartender after the bartender refused to serve him anymore alcohol. You two have to interview witnesses and get the specifics."

"Let me guess," CD began, "The bartender wasn't going to let Lohan leave because he was too drunk to drive himself home, huh?"

"Exactly," Kate nodded.

"That's sad," Angela added, "The bartender was just trying to help Lohan."

CD glared at Angela.

"Lets go," Angela said with a smirk.

The two woman took the folder and left.

"Ramirez, Exstead, 26 year old Maggie Carlson, a prostitute, found dead in an alley over on the other side of town. . ."

Kate continued explaining the case, but Jinny wasn't listening. She sat at her desk, debating in her mind whether or not she should forgive Teddy.

"Jinny?" Magda tapped her on the shoulder, "Lets go."

"Oh, yeah," Jinny nodded.

- IN AN ALLEY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN -

Jinny and Magda were questioning all sorts of 'eccentric' people but no one knew anything about Maggie, or so they claimed.

"I'm Inspector Exstead and this is Inspector Ramirez. Do you know this girl?" Jinny held up the photo of Maggie to a blonde haired, young girl wearing a skimpy little outfit and a pair of leather, zip-up boots.

"Uh, no," the girl said nervously.

Jinny tried to frighten her, "How would you like to spend the next ten years in prison?"

"No!" the girl replied, "Okay, I'll tell you what I know. Yeah, I do know Maggie."

"What's your name?" Magda queried.

"Ginger," the girl replied, raking her long red fingernails through her hair.

"Well, Ginger, do you know that Maggie is dead?" Jinny asked.

Ginger's eyes practically bulged right out of her head, "What?! She's dead? Oh my gosh!"

"Do you know who could have possibly of murdered her? Did anyone want her dead?" Magda asked.

Ginger thought for a moment, "No, not that I know of. Oh wait, Rodney was pretty mad at her."

"Rodney?" Magda questioned.

"Yeah, she wasn't making him any money," Ginger responded.

"Oh," Jinny understood, "He's your pimp?"

"Yes," Ginger nodded.

"Where can we find him?" Magda asked.

Ginger shrugged, "I don't know. He skipped town."

Jinny and Magda exchanged a look.

"Well, thank you for your time, Ginger," Magda said, "Can you tell us where we will be able to find you in case have to ask you more questions?"

"Around," Ginger responded.

Jinny glared at her.

"Okay," Ginger put her hands up defeat, "I'm almost always here."

"Thanks," Magda replied and she and Jinny walked to their car.

"Can you believe that?" Magda said, putting her seatbelt on, "The world has gotten so bad. People are constantly hurting other people. Parents hurting their children, husbands hurting their wives, boyfriends hurting their girlfriends. . ."

Jinny shook her head, "I know what you're getting at, Mag. Just don't go there, okay?"

"Yeah, whatever," Magda said, starting up the car.

- BACK AT THE DIVISION -

"Did you find this Rodney guy?" Kate asked.

"No," Jinny replied, "Apparently he left town."

"Just to get away from the cops," Magda said, folding her arms.

"Okay, keep up the good work," Kate said.

Jinny and Magda left the office and sat at their desks. Jinny was looking through papers with her chin resting on the palm of her hand when she felt a tap on her shoulder.

"Jin?" the voice was soft.

Jinny turned around and looked up to see Teddy's sweet, sad face.

"Hey," she smiled.

"Can we talk?" he asked gently.

"Yeah," Jinny looked around and saw her co-workers staring, "Out in the parking lot."

She got up and the two walked outside.

- IN THE PARKING LOT -

"Listen Jin," Teddy said, taking her hand and holding it, "About last night. . ."

"Teddy," Jinny said, "You don't have to say anything. It was all my fault."

Teddy bowed his head for a moment and then raised it; there were tears forming in his eyes.

"What you did was wrong, but I shouldn't have hit you. I'm sorry, I promise that I won't ever hit you again," Teddy said apologetically.

Jinny smiled, "It's okay, I forgive you. And I'm sorry for doing what I did. Do you forgive me?"

"Of course," Teddy grinned.

The two embraced until they decided to get back to work.
