The Big Heat au

Takes place right after the babies argued......yeah that broke me...... And I am a TERRIBLE person in this chapter so uh brace yourself. 

IF YOU HAVE ANY REQUESTS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ASK ME!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

"That was too far, TK." "He's my Dad, Judd! Why-why would he file an arson report if it was him, anyway? It can't be him!" "He'd do it to get the heat off himself!" "You don't get to say that Judd! I know my Dad much better than all of you! He was always there for me! After my Mom left, every single night for a month, I would cry, thinking it was my fault that she abandoned me! Every nightmare about her telling me that it was my fault, wishing that I had never been born because if it wasn't for me they'd still be together! Through every time I apologised saying it was all my fault, my Dad would hold me, comfort me tell me that it wasn't my fault. Even after a 24-hour shift, all he wanted to do was sleep, yet he was there! He was there! When I first used, he could have walked away! He could have let me die, he could have let me do multiple things! But he was there! He helped me get clean! I have walked through fire every single day of my life! But I didn't walk it alone. Who walked through it with me? My Dad! There are SO many times I had wanted to end my life, but each time, Dad helped me through it!" TK fought with tears.

"Dad helped you, Judd! When-when you first came back! You were still having trouble about your old crew, he helped you get the help you needed! Mateo, Dad-Dad treated you fairly, right? Com-compared to other stations, right?" Mateo nodded. "Paul, he-he didn't care that you were trans or black, he and the team accepted you, right?" Paul nodded. "Marj, you're an inspiration to countless people all over the world. Buck, Eddie, me, thousands of people. But that's not why Dad wanted you. He wanted you for you, for being this boss, this badass, who the team could always rely on. But why did he really pick all of us? Because we're supposed to have each other's backs! Know that if someone accused us of something, that us ourselves know, that they didn't do it! So none of you get to say that my Dad is a criminal! He's my Dad for fuck's sake! I think I'd know if he was behind something! I have known my Dad for 27 years, you think I don't know him? You clearly don't know him if you think he'd do something like that." TK's voice cracked again in the last sentence. TK started walking away. "Strand?" Tommy said. TK turned back. "You're done. Go home." "W-what?" "Just for this shift. You won't be able to concentrate with your father on your mind." "But-" "Nancy and I can manage. You need to go home." "Okay." TK said before turning to the locker room. 

Marjan looked like she was ready to kill. She locked her eyes on Judd. "What. The. Fuck? Why the fuck would you do that to him?!" "Look, Cap's been arrested. It could be a mistake, but given what Probie has told us, it seems that it could be him." "Did you for one second think about TK?! Think about what is running through his head and then you say that it was him?!" "You know he's had a hard past, Judd. Parents arguing, leading to a divorce." Tommy began. "Being bullied for being who he is." Paul continued. "His Mom not accepting him for being gay at the start." Mateo said. "Leading to using, to relapsing, to almost dying. Then to think, the ONLY person who has stuck by him since he was seven, gets arrested. You didn't for one tiny, split second think that his world is crashing down?! I have never seen any father and son, or father and daughter, SO close, in my entire existence. TK has known Cap for 27 years. Twenty-fuckin-seven." Marjan was doing her best to not roar at the top of her lungs, knowing that if TK heard, it could set off an anxiety attack. "Judd you need to apologise, but not now. Tomorrow. If he comes in. And that, is a very big 'if', Judd." Tommy said

TK let tears flow down his cheeks freely now. Sobs and hiccups in between, seeing the image of his Dad in orange clothes, in cuffs, in a prison cell. As TK picked up his bag and walked out, he heard a soft female voice say, "TK?" He turned back to see Marjan. He tried to stop his sobs but it was useless. Marjan walked closer and wrapped her arms around him. "I can't imagine what's going through your head. Fuck Judd, he stepped way out of line. I would have reacted the same way. I'd say we all would have. "I can just...see him in the orange uniform. In cuffs, in prison." TK whispered, then his sobs became harsher and louder. Loud enough for the team to hear. On instinct, or maybe because they were nosy, they got closer and watched and heard everything from a safe distance. Tommy was the only one to stay behind. "Hey, no, TK, none of that. Cap's gonna get out of this." "What if he doesn't? What if he spends the rest of his life in prison? What if I never see him again?" TK asked breaking away from her.
