Linstead Happened

A Night Owl

*Beep Beep Beep*

Erins POV

I was scared, I haven't seen doctors in action like this.
Well, I might have; when my mother tried to overdose when i was 15 years old, just before Hank Voight and his wife Camille took me in to their care.
This... this brought back bad memories.

Jays POV

I panicked, I wanted to help. But my brother Will Halstead knew exactly what to do- the doctor of the family. He could fix what was wrong with Kim. All I need to do know is sit and wait...

"Erin?!" " Erin?!" "Erin?!"
"Erin, are you okay?" Jay asked, in a confused manner.
"What's wrong?"
Jay looked at Erin, putting his hands on top of hers as she looked forward in confusion.
She got up from sitting for so long and walked and carried on walking until she exited out of the Med E.R, Jay not knowing what happened all of sudden got up and followed her.

*Erin and Jay Exits the E.R*

"Erin, we've been partners for so long now, you can tell me anything" Jay gasps after running after her.
Jay and Erin stand there in the middle of the E.R car park, as the rain gushes down upon them; Erins mascara runs down her cheeks, Jay wiping them away with his thumb.
"Jay, what just happened then... with Kim, brought back so many bad memories with my mom" jay stood there and listened.

Erins POV

I'm about to tell Jay... the story of my mom and her drug addiction; he's never heard this before. What if he changes his mind about me?

"Okay Jay"
"Okay, go for it, I'm here as long as you need me"
Erin began talking... The conversation went on for a few minutes.
"Omg, Erin! Your mom was a drug addict... and Voight took you in"

Erins POV

I didn't know Jay would re-act like this or i would of told him sooner. I at least thought he would of walked away from me, thinking i was damaged goods; thanks to my mom, destroying my childhood at 15 years old.

Jays POV

What! I did not know that about Erin, that's so messed up. Her mom, really... thanks to Voight and his wife taking her in; she could be... dead, I'm glad she is safe now, in the 21st district.

"Let's go back in, see how Adam is doing"

*Erin and Jay enter the E.R*

Adam sits there with his head in his hands, slouched back, kness shaking and frightened.
"Jay, Erin!; Dr. Halstead... Will is taking her up to surgery now, she has a swollen kidney..."
There was an awkward moment of silence.
"You both should go, I'll be a night owl, am gonna stay until she's out" Adam insisted.
"Okay man, ring me when you have news" Jay replied.
"Jay!, wait!" Will shouted
"Hey bro, what's up? How's she doing?"
"Jay, she's not doing the greatest, her kidney is bigger than we expected..." Will whispered
"That's a shame. Anyway, I need to drop Erin back off at home" Jay nudged Will, showing him Erin sat in the passenger seat of the car.
"Oh yeah, sure man. See you when ever, yeah" Will replied whilst walking the opposite direction.
This time it was Erin shouting Jay to hurry up.
Jay starts the engine, reverses out of the car park and heads off.

*few minutes into the car journey*

Erin POV

Oh damn! I've picked up the wrong keys, what am I supposed to do know? Act normal and see if we go Jays place or tell him? He could be fine about it and let me crash on the couch.

Jays POV

Okay so, shall i take Erin home first or invite her back to my apartment? It is like only 10:25pm, the night is still young and so are we.

"Erin...?"

Erins POV

Jay is definitely gonna ask me to go back to his place, i made it look obvious that i didn't have my house key; I wasn't acting for fun all of a sudden.

"Do you want..."
"To get a starbucks from the drive thru"
"No, I'm only joking; do you want to come back to my place for a few drinks" Jay asked careless
"Yeah sure"

Erins POV

Obviously I wanted to go back, I wasn't going to say no was I.

Jays POV

I knew it! knew it, knew it! She so wanted to come back to my 'man pad' in the first place, wanting to come and check my luxury life out. Yeah yeah i know.

*Jay pulls up at his apartment with Erin*

Both of them walk to the door shoeless, Jay holding his own and Erins in his hand.
The key clicks and the door opens with the cold airy breeze, bashing it against the wall...
