Partners In Crime

Part 2

This part will be a flashback from the episode Chinatown. I'm adding the character into the episode, and making it from her point of view, I have another part to this episode, but I figured I would do flashback/backstory, for one chapter, then an update in real time for the next. Please let me know what you think!

(Chinatown Season 1, Episode 8)
You rolled over hearing your phone ringing, and you groaned as you saw that it was 4:30 in the morning.

"Hullo?" You yawned sleepily into the phone.

"Is this y/n?" An unknown male voice asked you.

"Yes? Who's this?" You answered, more alert now that someone had asked for you by name.

"Hey, it's Jeff from Smith's Pub, I have a Jamie Reagan here who is completely hammered, I can't let him drive home and when I asked if there was someone I could call, he gave me your name and number."

You rubbed your face and sighed, "Yeah, I'll be there in 10."

You walked in wearing sweats and a jacket to see Jamie staring at a ring on the counter of the bar. You recognized it as Sid's, and you immediately realized that they must have broken it off, which didn't come as a suprise to you. You hadn't really minded her until a couple weeks ago, when she asked you to lunch with her and Jamie to "get to know you better." You'd been having a good time, until Jamie had gone to catch up with a friend he had gone to law school with, leaving you alone with Sid.

"Y/n, can I ask you a favor?" She asked.

"Sure, what's up?" You asked curiously.

"I know you've been best friends with Jamie since forever," she began, "but whenever he's not with me, he's with you. On the job, after work, on weekends."

You chuckled, "When I was little, Frank said I might as well change my last name to Reagan since I was over there so often. They always made me feel like part of the family."

You smiled as you remembered how they pretty much adopted you, and how after the accident made it mandatory you be there with everyone on Sundays.

" I think you need to hang out less."

You sat there shocked as she continued.

" I see how you look at him. But honey, he's never going to feel the same. We're together now, so if you care about him, maybe it's best if you just let go now. I don't think you'll be seeing much of one another after we're married anyway, since married people hang out with married couples. I also think it might be best if you couldn't make it to our wedding, you could go on a cruise, say you forgot. Or you could come and I could tell him a cute story about how you have feelings for him. That might make it awkward though since you're best friends and all. " She had said dripping venom.

"Everything ok here?" Jamie asked looking at your pale face.

"Oh we're great!" Sid lied, "Y/n was just telling me about a funny story from your childhood, weren't you?" She laughed, daring you to say something.

You fake laughed, "Yep. I'm sorry you guys, my stomach is killing me, so if it's ok with you guys I'm gonna head home." You said standing up quickly and throwing money onto the table, hitting your legs on the table as you quickly stood.

"Let me call you a cab." Jamie said getting up.

"No." You said too quickly, "I'm gonna walk."
