Chris's pov

Street walked in my apartment, I shut the door as he entered neither of us really new what to say.

"How's your leg doing?" Street questioned
"The pain killers help just want to be back on the field you know" I said making my way to the kitchen "you wanna a coke or something?"
"Sure, oh shit I forgot the pizza"

"Aha it's okay I'll order pepperoni good with you" I asked
Street nodded and I handed him the coke bottle. After I ordered the pizza we sat on the couch.
"It said it'll be hear in half an hour, so what did you do today" I asked a bit jealous I was not with them.

"There was a hostage situation at a bank, there were two guys keeping 10 people hostage in this bank but on of them had a toy gun" Street laughed

"No way was the other guys gun real"
"Yeh but when we looked at it it wasn't loaded, those poor people though frightened for their lives over plastic and an unloaded gun"
"There are some twisted people out their as we both know"
"Yeh but you'll be back out there soon kicking ass as always"
"Can't wait especially to show you up"
We both started laughing and Street put his hand on my leg I could see worry forming on his face.

I put my hand on top of his "hey don't worry I'm hear"

"I know but it was too close yesterday, I don't think I've ever been so worried about anyone in my life"

I let out a breath and put my hand on his face "you got me through yesterday all I thought about was getting back to you"
I saw relief in Streets eyes from what I said.
I moved my hand from his face and held his hand.
"Deacon talked about getting back to Annie and the kids and all I thought about was getting back to you and when I saw you yesterday I realised that home can be a person"

Our faces drew closer but then there was a knock on the door.

"That must be the pizza" I said
"Perfect timing" Street said in disappointment.
I went to get up and get the door but Street beat me too it.
"I got it" Street said.

We sat down with the pizza and I put the TV on.
"What you feel like watching"
"Anything you choose" Street replied.
I decided to put an old cop show on I'm sure we'll be able to have a laugh with that.

An hour passed by and I decided to clean up, Street helped it felt a bit like we were this married couple for a second. I stood smiling at him for a minute.
He turned around and looked at me.
"What?" Street asked
"Um nothing" I replied
"I should be going it's getting late and I better be back to put Luca to bed" Street joked
"Right you better be back to tuck him in"
We both laughed at each other.
I didn't want him to leave but I knew it went against every rule if he stayed.

I walked up to him and hugged him I didn't want to let go and I could tell he didn't want to either.
"Thanks for coming over I needed the cheer up"
"Hey anything you need, always here for you remember"

We broke from the hug but Street still had his hand on my back, our foreheads touched and it brought my heart racing.

But then I came back to reality.
"We can't"
We broke apart and I could see the disappointment on his face.
"Believe me Street I want to, but..."
I didn't Finnish and Street spoke up.
"Right I get it half relationship thing"
"Street"
"No it's fine I better get going"
I couldn't say anything else and he already made his way out the door.

I was so mad at myself I lead him on tonight and I shouldn't have. I don't know what to do, there's nothing I can do that'll work. But I can't go on like this forever because I'm pretty sure I'm in love with him...
