He followed Jim into the locker room
'Tony don't do anything stupid' Robbie shouted
Tony slammed the locker room door shut behind him, walked up to Jim and thumped him 'Argh' Jim cried
'You told me you were not cheating on June, you liar' Tony shouted
'I wasn't lying' Jim protested as he nursed his eye
'Jim Robbie just over heard you talking to that woman, I am going to kill you' Tony said as he thumped Jim again
'Tony you got this all wrong'
'I don't think so, I knew you would hurt her, I told her but she wouldn't listen'
'Tony I love June'
'I don't want to hear it Jim, how could you do this to June, how' Tony shouted as he punched Jim to the floor
'Tony please' Jim begged
Just as Tony went to punch him again Nick walked in and grabbed him 'Tony what are you doing?' Nick said
'He deserves it' Tony snapped
'What's he done?'
'He's been cheating on June, I just saw the woman, she even came to the station, how low can you get'
'No Tony you are wrong' Nick said
'Nick don't' Jim snapped
'No Jim, I know this isn't true. Tony stop this, Jim is not having an affair'
'Oh get off me' Tony snapped ' I don't want to hear it, I think it's about time June found out what you have been up to' he continued as he walked out
'No Tony please' Jim begged 'You are wrong' he sobbed
Tony walked off
'I am sorry Jim' Nick said 'This is all my fault, I should never have let you get involved'
'Don't be silly' Jim said
'But you could loose everything' Nick wept
'Look don't worry about me just concentrate on yourself'
'But…'
'Please Nick, if nothing else comes out of this mess at least you will be off the drugs'
'Ok'
Nick helped Jim up and tried to patch him up
Meanwhile Tony walked into CSU 'June I need to talk to you' Tony said
'Oh Tony I am really busy can we talk later'
'No now' he insisted
'Go on then'
'I am sorry June, but Jim has been having an affair' Tony blurted out
'What?' June replied looking shocked
'I am really sorry'
'How do you know?' June said trying to hold back the tears
'Robbie over heard him in reception talking to some woman'
'Oh' June said as she broke down into Tony's arms
'I am so sorry June'
'How could he do this I thought he loved me' June sobbed
'I know'
'Were is he?' June snapped all of a sudden
'In the locker room I think'
'Right'
June ran off towards the locker room and Tony followed. She walked in and saw Nick patching up Jim's face 'June I…'
'Don't say anything Jim, you disgust me' June cried ' How could you Jim I thought you loved me'
'I do, you have got this all wrong I would never do anything to hurt you June'
'So sleeping with someone else isn't hurting me is it. Jim what was it, wasn't I enough for you, did you need a younger woman'
'No' Jim protested
'Sarge he…' Nick started
'Don't stick up for him Nick'
'I should have known, you coming home late not telling me where you were and to think I believed you when you said you were helping a friend, what a fool I am'
'No June, please'
'Jim I don't want you anywhere near me' June shouted 'I will bag your stuff and put it out the front of the house'
'Sarge' nick shouted
'Be quite Nick' Tony snapped 'Come on June I will take you home'
June followed Tony, she was sobbing her heart out. Seeing Jim battered like that, she just wanted to hug him, kiss him but he betrayed her, how could he do that, the only man she truly loved betrayed her in the worst possible way.
Back in the locker room Jim sobbed too ' Jim please let me tell her the truth, this isn't fair on you' Nick said
'No' Jim snapped 'You wanted to keep it quiet so just don't say anything'
'But..'
'Look Nick if June believes I could do something like that then maybe we don't have a relationship anyway. She obviously doesn't trust me' Jim cried wiping his eyes
'This isn't right, you and Sgt Ackland are meant to be together. I must admit I laughed at first when I found out about you too but I have seen how much you love each other. You love her like I loved Cass' Nick broke down
'Come on, let's get back to work'
Nick went back to work and Jim was sent home by Gina. He went back to his lonely flat and placed the whiskey bottle he had bought on the table. He stared at the bottle for ages and then he picked it up and threw it across the room. He then slid down the wall and sobbed.
The following day Jim returned to work and tried to talk to June but she ignored him. The station gossips were in over drive talking about yesterdays goings on's. The rest of the week was pretty much the same with June ignoring Jim but Jim stuck to his guns and continued to help Nick and go to the meetings with him.
