Elsa's POV:
A week has passed since Captain Frost and I had kissed.
To say I didn't enjoy the kiss would be an understatement.
That night was electrifying.
I remembered the way his soft lips moved against mine.
I shivered.
We haven't really interacted much since then, except for Atlas's funeral.
He and I were both the only one's there.
We didn't exchange any words though.
We just listened to the priest say some kind words before some strangers lowered Chelsea Brown and Atlas into the ground.
I wiped a stray tear away.
It's weird, I don't normally become this attached to the kids of victims.
I sighed and fell back into my bed.
Captain Frost has been ignoring everything. He assigned me to a case with Bunny and whenever I try and start a conversation, he gets up and leaves.
Quickly, I changed into pair of black jeans, and an ice blue dress shirt. I placed my badge around my neck and hurried out the door.
When I got to the precinct, I saw Bunny taking in a perp.
"Hey, what's going on?" I asked once the woman was in the holding cell.
"This," he gestured towards the woman, " is a possible suspect in the 78th bank robbery."
I scoffed.
"She's the woman who stole thousands of dollars from that bank, then flashed all of the security camera's?"
He nodded his head, shivering slightly.
The woman was clearly intoxicated.
"People do weird things when they're drunk." I said sadly.
That was Captain Frost's excuse for his actions a few weeks ago.
Bunny and I walked off to our desks and finished up on some paperwork.
North came rushing by.
"Hey, North, why are you in such a hurry?" I asked, putting down my pen.
"Meeting in the briefing room in 5."
I sighed and made my way over.
People were chatting and taking their spots.
I sat down next to Tooth and whispered in her ear.
"What's going on?"
She just shrugged, and I was just more confused.
However, the chatter slowly died down once the Captain walked in.
"Everybody rise." He said strictly.
We all stood up and saluted waiting for further instruction.
Why did he tell us to rise? We never do that unless-
"Good Morning officers." A voice boomed.
We all turned towards the entrance of the room.
There, standing there was the Commissioner.
"Good Morning Commissioner Moon." We all said simultaneously.
"At ease." He said and we all sat down.
"The Commissioner has come in today to asses all of your skills. Because apparently I didn't do a good enough job." The Captain mumbled the last part quietly.
The two of us made eye contact and he quickly looked away.
"Correct. I will be talking to the higher up's first and then make my way down. Please continue on with your day like you would usually do." The Commish stated.
We all nodded.
"Everybody is dismissed, except for Lieutenant North, and Lieutenant Kasturi."
The rest of us got up and left.
"Arens, my office."
I jumped a bit, and spun around on my heels.
I silently made my way over to the Captain's office.
"Sit." He says sharply, and I obey.
He shuts the door.
"Are you going to talk to me now?" I ask sassily.
He stays silent.
"When the Commissioner talks to you one on one, do not mention me. If he asks you about me at all, change the subject."
I scoff.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I ask.
"Excuse me?" He asked obviously offended.
"Yeah, first you act all tuff and mean, then you kiss me and ignore me, then you act like a pussy infront of your father." I scowl while turning around to face him.
"He is not my father." He replies coldly, looking straight into my eyes.
"Why do you act so awful around him!? He is the Commissioner of the fucking BPD! He is always so nice to everyone! He keeps the city running! So what! What did he do to you huh?! Take away one of your toys?! Say something mean to you?! WHAT IS IT!?" I yell.
"HE KILLED THE ONLY PERSON I EVER LOVED!" He shouted back.
I was silent and taken aback.
"Get the fuck out of my office Detective." He growls.
I do as commanded and run into the bathroom.
I shut one of the stall doors close.
As I caught my breath, I couldn't help but replay his words in my head.
"He killed the only person I ever loved." I whispered quietly.
I don't know why I felt so offended.
He is an asshole.
Why do I feel this horrible?
Jack's POV:
I sat in my office tugging at my silver white locks.
My breath heavy.
I reached under my desk and pulled the picture out that was stuck to the interior.
I let my fingers slide down the edge of the photo.
Little droplets of water started falling on the picture.
"FUCK!" I yelled as I slammed my fists down on the table.
I buried my head into my hands.
That fucking bastard had to come today.
He just had to make today worse.
September 14th.
Today is the day that Jack Moon died, and Jackson Frost was born.
I glanced back at the photo.
"Why did you have to listen to him?" I said softly.
I put the photo away and rested my elbows on my desk.
I sighed and tried to pull my mind off of it.
My mind wandered to that night.
The way her hands grasped onto my hair, the way she pressed her body against mine.
I shook the feeling.
I don't know what was wrong with me that night.
But it was a one time thing.
Nothing more.
I replayed our last conversation in my head.
The scared look in her eyes gave me chills.
However, it was for her own sake.
She shouldn't be messing with guys like me.
She's too naive.
~Time skip~
Work was finally over and I made my way to my car.
I pulled up to the florist and grabbed a bouquet of yellow daffodils. Her favourite.
As I approached the fenced off area, I noticed another car here.
No one is ever here at this time.
"Liam, why does he hate me so much? Why is he such an asshole?"
I listened closer.
"All I want is his respect. He is constantly degrading me when all I ever do is follow his orders."
I scoff and start to walk away, but the next sentence makes me freeze.
"Why do I always screw up Liam. Why am I such a failure?"
The girl sobbed harder.
I sighed and walked away. This was none of my business. I wasn't part of this.
"Hey Em." I said sitting down on the grass covered in beautiful red maple leaves.
I placed the flowers down beside the older flowers.
"I know you always loved it when I sung. I made you a promise...that on your birthday, I would sing you something."
I chuckled sadly.
"I know you are probably still pissed that I haven't granted your wish yet."
"But Today, is your lucky day Em's. I wish you were here."
~Start song~
Everywhere I go
Everything I do
Reminds me of you
Just a picture on the wall
I'm surrounded by it all gotta walk before I fall
Fall out, out on the street
Street light, light over me so far from where I used to be
Where she was mine
Everything was easy everything was simple
Never felt so good when she was mine
I wanted to remember
Never missed a second
Never wish I could forget
Forget when she was mine, mine, yeah
When she was mine, mine, yeah
What I miss the most
Is talking up all night
We laughed until we cried
Now I'm breaking at the seams
Dropping to my knees
Nothing left of me
Black stone turned into dust
My heart wasn't enough
So far from where I used to be
When she was mine!
Everything was easy everything was simple
Never felt so good when she was mine
I wanted to remember
Never missed a second
Never wish I could forget
Forget when she was mine, mine, yeah
When she was mine, mine, yeah-
~Stop Song~
"FUCK!"
I slammed my phone down on the ground stopping the music.
"I can't do this." I murmured.
I got up and ran.
I can't handle this.
While wiping stray tears away, I started my car engine.
Quickly, I drove off to my house.
I need a drink.
When I arrived, I was furious to see a very familiar white car in my drive way.
I walked into my house and screamed.
"Get the hell out of my house!"
My Mother and the Commissioner jumped.
"Son-"
I cut him off.
"I, am NOT you son." I said breathing heavily.
"Jack," My mother said pleadingly.
"No. Both of you get the fuck out of my house. And don't ever come back!" I said furiously.
"Jackson Moon, watch your mouth!" The white haired man commanded.
"Fuck you!" I yelled.
"Jackson-"
"GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE BEFORE I SHOOT YOU BOTH!" I yelled.
...
Everyone was silent.
I was breathing heavily.
Rage was the only thing I felt right now.
After a few seconds, my mother and the Commissioner left.
I could hear my mother sobbing hard, but I didn't give a crap.
It's all their faults she's gone.
They have no right to cry.
I grabbed a bottle of whiskey and started chugging it.
The rest of the night was a blur.
~Time skip~
The blinding sun alerted me awake.
I yawned and grasped onto my head.
Ahh, it hurts.
I stumbled to my kitchen, but was surprised to see a certain platinum blonde sleeping on my couch.
"What the fuck are you doing in my house!?" I yelled.
She startled awake.
She looked at me with her stunning ice blue eyes.
"You don't remember anything?" She says softly.
I grit my teeth together.
"Why are you here?" I ask again.
She sighs.
"You left me no choice."
I scoff.
"What does that even mean idiot?" I said crossing my arms.
She just got up from the couch and grabbed her phone.
She tapped on her screen for a bit before she played something.
"D-Detective! Hahaha! I have- I have a gun! Isn't it such a funny thing? I mean, LOOK AT IT! Pfft! I j-just fired it! Ahaha! It made a bang! I want to do it again."
Then the line cut.
She stuffed her phone back into her pocket.
"After I tracked your location down, you were standing right here," she said pointing to the middle of my living room, "pointing your handgun at your head."
I was shocked.
"After I removed the gun from you, you passed out."
I sat down on the couch.
We sat in an awkward silence before she spoke up.
"I'm going to work, you take the day off."
With that she left.
This entire situation was confusing.
Was she not mad about how I acted?
Was she not pissed that I yelled at her?
Elsa's POV:
~Earlier~
It was finally my turn to talk to the Commissioner.
"Ah, if it isn't Elsa Arens, Burgees new 'Burgees Police Champion'." He said leaning back in his chair.
I smiled.
"Good afternoon Commissioner Moon." I said politely taking my seat across from him.
I was still pissed at Captain Frost, but that doesn't mean that others have to suffer.
"When did you start at the 5-6?" The Commsioner asked clicking his pen.
"I stared 4 years ago, when I was 20 years old." I said confidently.
"Did you graduate college early?" He asked.
I nodded my head.
"I wasn't able to afford to go to collage, but my high school teachers were able to pull some strings and allow me to take online college courses while studying in high school."
He nodded.
"My son, did that as well, he wanted to get into the academy as fast as possible." The Commissioner says light heartily.
I keep a straight face.
For the next half an hour, we talk about my experience in the 5-6. After work, I go see Liam.
"Liam, why does he hate me so much? Why is he such an asshole?"
Silence.
"All I want is his respect. He is constantly degrading me when all I ever do is follow his orders."
Silence.
"Why do I always screw up Liam. Why am I such a failure?"
Silence.
I sob.
Why can't I do anything right? Why can't I do anything to make him see that I am a worthy officer, and that I deserve my badge?
I get up and leave.
I notice another person's car here, but I ignore it.
When I'm home, I notice that Anna is sitting at the table with her earbuds in.
This is her last year in med school.
She had convinced me that she needs to study to the point where she is a walking, talking textbook.
I go up to my room and shut the door lightly.
I start researching something for another case I was working, when an incoming call came in.
Captain Frost.
I ignore the call.
The nerve of this guy!
Eventually the phone stopped ringing, but it seems he left a message.
After 10 minutes, my curiosity took over and I played the message.
"D-Detective! Hahaha! I have- I have a gun! Isn't it such a funny thing? I mean, LOOK AT IT! Pfft! I j-just fired it! Ahaha! It made a bang! I want to do it again."
"FUCK!" I yelled as I tried to find his location.
I sped off in my car trying to find his house.
"No no no no no no no! What is he thinking!" I yelled as I pulled up to a moderately big house.
Once I kicked down the door, there he was, with a gun against his head.
"Captain Frost."
"D-Detective!" The Captain says sadly.
"Captain Frost I need you to put the gun down." I say gently.
"No!" He yells, pushing it now flush against the side of his head.
"Captain, you can't do this." I say taking a few more steps towards him.
"I just want her back." He says breaking down a bit.
"Who back?" I ask.
"Emma." He whispers.
I feel a pang of jealousy in my heart.
"Captain Frost, Emma wouldn't want you to do this. You know that." I say cautiously.
He just sniffles and cocks the gun.
"NO! I yell as I push him to the ground.
The bullet hits the couch in his living room.
I breath heavily as I take the gun from him and unload the bullets.
"Why would you do that?" He asks monotonously.
"I CAN'T JUST LET YOU KILL YOURSELF!" I yell.
"But wouldn't it be easier if I was gone?" He asked.
I was silent.
"Captain Frost, you cannot think like that. Think of the people you make suffer if you were gone."
He scoffs.
"Nobody would care."
I couldn't control my mouth.
"I would care."
He was silent for a second, before propping himself up.
"Why are you so," he gestures to me, "s-so nice?" He says cocking his head to the side.
I think for a second.
"I think that if I was mean, I would be wasting time with someone that deserves a second chance." I say honestly.
He just nods his head.
"Can you stay with me? I get lonely here all alone." He says in a sleepy voice.
My eyes widen.
But, eventually I nod and he leans his head against my shoulder and passes out.
I look down at the man beside me.
Maybe all he needs is a second chance.
