Jamie West // Book 2 // The Flash

Part B

Earth-1
It's night time, and Jamie headed to home after working at CCPD. When she walked in, she seem Joe sitting at the dinner table with Wally.

"Hey, baby. Come grab a seat", Joe says.

"No, thank you. I'm actually tired. Need to lay downs, before going back to work in the morning", Jaime says.

She starts to walk up the steps when, Joe called her again.

"Dad. Please", Jaime says. "Im tired and I'm not in the mood".

Joe walks over to Jaime.

"Look, I was wondering how's work", Joe says.

"Right. Well, it was cool. I got to work on a different case. ", Jaime says.

"What do you mean?", Joe says.

"You know what I mean. I got to work on a case that wasn't handed to Baylor from you", Jaime says. "I know, you've been giving Baylor cases. And you had no right".

"Jai-".

"Don't even bother lying. This is my job. This is my career and you're interfering", Jaime says.

"Im trying to keep you safe", Joe says.

"No, you're tying to get me to back down like Iris did. I'm not Iris. I'm not backing down", Jaime yelled.

"I can't lose you again", Joe says.

"Here we go again", Jaime says.

Jaime walks down the stairs and puts her stuff done on the couch.

"Is that your excuse every time. I get it I died, but I'm alive. Im here. You can see me, hear me, hug me. Im here", Jaime says. "Me "dying" doesn't give you the right to get into the middle of my job. I'm trying to show them that, I deserve to be a cop...a detective".

"You are my daughter. I will always protect you", Joe says.

"I know. But I don't need your protection. Hell, I don't even need your blessing", Jaime says.

"Watch your tone. I am your father. You follow my rules. I don't want you to put your self in harm way. I don't want you working for CCPD", Joe says.

"You do it. You work for them, and in doing so you put yourself in harms way. I want to help people, it all I ever wanted. I looked up to you, you were one of the main reasons I wanted to become a cop even though you'd disagree", Jaime says. "But now, I'm doing this for me. I lost two years of my life. I'm not loosing anymore. I don't care what you want or don't want. What I want matters".

"You know what you do you, Jaime. You'll see that I'm right", Joe says.

"Like lying about mom. That was right? Moving a complete stranger into my room, that's right? Interfering with my job, that's right?", Jaime says.

"That's not fair", Joe says.

"Life isn't fair".

Jaime gets her stuff, and walks up the stairs into her room, or Barry's old room.

Barry and Wally looks at Joe, as he walks back to the dinner table.

"You okay, Joe?" , Barry asks.

"Yeah, Bare I'm fine. Can we talk about some thing else?", Joe says.

"Well, I talked to Caitlin and Cisco, they helped an old friend of yours get to Earth-2", Wally says. "Someone named Patty".

"Patty Spivot", Barry says. "She was Joe's partner. You probably seen her a few times. She was there during Christmas when we first met".
