They were playing charades at Kim's house. First they played CPD versus CFD and now they were mixing: Teresa with Sylvie and Kim with Stella.

Teresa didn't know who was more competitive, but sweet Sylvie, even if happily playing the charades, had this hunger in her eyes Teresa had never seen before in her and definitely seemed like she would do anything to win at the game.

Whilst Kim was trying to guess Stella's phrase, Teresa got a phone call and since she didn't have to guess the charade, she picked it up. She then got up from the couch and moved to the hallway.

"Everything okay?" Sylvie asks when Teresa returns.

"Yeah, yeah. It was just my brother Tyler."

Sylvie nodded and didn't ask any further since she didn't feel like it was her business what Teresa's brother wanted with her and since she wans't leaving, it shouldn't be important.

"Your time is up!" Sylvie shouts as Kim fails to guess. "We win," she exclaims raising her arms in victory.

"You got the easy ones," Stella says as she takes a seat.

"Let's play again, then," Sylvie insists. "I'll prove you wrong."

"How about we just make some drinks?" Kim suggests.

"We don't work tomorrow, so... I'll just take as many drinks as you give me," Stella says with a smile.

Teresa just took a glass of wine as the other three drank more fancy drinks.

"Since it's just us girls here," Sylvie starts, "I want to know... all those injuries were just a pretext to go to the hospital and get a man, weren't they, Teresa?"

Teresa chokes on her wine and had to brush the back of her hand pass her lips to make sure she wouldn't spill anything.

"Yeah, yeah, I totally got Molotov-cocktailed and attacked at my house to go to the hospital and have the possibily to get treated by a certain ED doctor."

"Wait, who are we talking about?" Stella asks confused. "Not Dr. Rhodes who you punched really hard a few months back, right?"

"No, not him," Teresa answers with a chuckle.

"You seriously didn't notice?" Sylvie asks. "I don't think she would have told me if I hadn't asked her about it directly, but... you can tell when they go together to Molly's."

It was true, one day, when Sylvie and Teresa were hanging out after visiting Toby's grave a couple of weeks after Teresa had been attacked at her place, Sylvie asked about Will and only then did Teresa tell her she was staying with him and things were new between them, but going well.

"Who?!" Stella insists curious.

"Will Halstead," Teresa says with a smile.

"You're dating Will Halstead? How come I never noticed?"

"You were probably working, it's fine. And we don't usually go to Molly's alone and we aren't all over each other or anything. No PDA."

"She's the most unlucky and most lucky person at the same time," Kim says shaking her head.

"You lose some, you win some," Teresa says with a shrug.

"But thank God you're dating a doctor. With the amount of times you get injured you might as well have someone supervise you," Sylvie jokes.

"Ha-ha."

They talked and enjoyed their drinks for a while longer and then Sylvie and Stella were getting sleepy and thought it was best to call it a night and go home.
