This story based on 2 years after Erin left to go to New York to take a job to keep Bunny out of jail. I kept Alvin Olinksey alive in the story as well. At first the connection between Jay and Erin is tense but they soon find their way back into eac...

Jay sat there waiting, he felt sick. Empty. He hadn't spoken to Erin or saw his son in two days. He missed them but he knew he had to sort this out before he fixed what happened. Every time he heard the bell ring from about the coffee shop door he jumped. Finally after waiting a whole hour Camilla sat next to him.
Camilla "Hey Jay"
Jay "So?" He was short with her, she was wrecking everything so he wasn't exactly going to make much of the conversation.
Camilla slid the envelope towards Jay "I haven't opened it, I thought I'd leave that up to you"
Jay opened the envelope and started reading, suddenly his worries were gone "He's not mine Camilla"
She started sobbing, he turned to look at her as she wiped the tears away "So what was your plan? Come back tell me I have a son and think we go back to how it was? Camilla I have a wife and a beautiful little boy, so please just leave me alone"
Camilla "I'm really sorry Jay, I did think he was yours. But I guess when things ended between us I had a void to fill and I guess...Well you can figure out the rest" she grabbed his hand as he stood up from his chair "I'm happy that your happy, I know what we had obviously wasn't real but your the only guy that has ever looked at me like you did"
Jay reached his hand and cupped her face and kissed her cheek "I wish you all the best Camilla truly, I'm sorry for everything" once he pulled away he walked out the door and drove home.
When he walked in her saw Erin swaying by the window with Noah in her arms. He slowly made his way over and wrapped his arms around her, he whispered in her ear "I'm really sorry, for everything."
She turned around and looked up at Jay "I've missed you, we've missed you" she watched as Jay took Noah from her arms "Hey little man, god aren't you a sight for sore eyes"
Erin sat down on the lounge and bought he knees into her chest, she didn't know if she was ready for this "So?"
He walked over to her slowly "Noah's my only son and Erin I'm so sorry for all of this. I really am and I'm not going to let anything or anybody jeopardise what we have again"
She rested her head on his shoulder as he sat down next to her, she could finally relax "I love you Jay Halstead"
"I love you too" he smiled as he looked at his son playing with his fingers as Jay playfully poked them into his stomach causing him to giggle.
That night Erin was up and down with Noah, he wouldn't settle and he had a slight fever. It was about 3:30am and Erin was getting up for what felt like the hundredth time. When she picked him up she could feel he had gotten warmer, she walked in to the bedroom and woke Jay up.
She was bouncing Noah up and down but his screams could have taken down the whole apartment.
Erin "Jay, wake up" he finally woke up rubbing his eyes "Hey what's the matter little fella?" He could tell how tired Erin was so he grabbed Noah from her arms "Erin he's really hot maybe we should take him in to see Will I know he's on shift tonight" she nodded as she got up to organise a baby bag.
Once they got to med they both walked into the ED and saw Maggie, she walked straight up to them to see what was going on. They filled her in and she put them into a room and said she'd go find Will or Natalie.
They waited in the room as Noah continued to cry, he was in Erins arms as she rocked him "Shhh baby boy it's okay" Jay could see the tears forming in her eyes, he pulled her into his side and kissed her forehead while he rubbed Noah's head.
Natalie walked in not long after they got put into the room "Hey guys, hey buddy you not feeling good" she walked over and placed her hand on Noah's stomach. "How long has he been running a temp?"
Erin "Umm I have been up with him all night trying to get it down, it only shot up within the last hour though"
Natalie "Okay has he been vomiting at all?"
Erin "I think once maybe twice...Sorry it's been a long night"
Jay rested his hand on Erins shoulder giving it a squeeze "Babe it's okay, we are here now"
Natalie "I honestly think he just has abit of a flu, probably caught it from day care. But I'm going to run tests just to rule out anything. Might take a couple hours we are run off our feet, but he's on some meds now so he should start to settle in a little bit"
Jay nodded "Thanks Nat, hey where's Will?"
Natalie "He knows your here, he just got taken up to surgery but I'm sure he will pop in as soon as he can. I will be back soon"
A couple hours later, Natalie and Will come in, Will gave Erin a hug and shook Jays hand and then headed over to Noah. He passed him a fluffy toy to play with while he spoke to Jay and Erin "Nothing to worry about, he's just got a flu. His temp is already coming down so you should be able to take him home soon. Just maybe keep him home for a couple days while he recovers"
They both thanked them and sighed with relief. Erin rang Voight and filled him in and said she wouldn't be in for the next couple days. Once they got home Noah was sound asleep in Jays arms. He didn't want to let him go incase he woke up so he just sat on the lounge with him, he looked towards Erin who was making coffee "Babe there's still a couple hours left until I have to go to work, go get some sleep while I'm here" she wasn't going to argue so she slowly dragged her feet and fell into bed, it didn't take her long before she was out of it.
