It was quiet in the apartment, Serveride and Otis were at Molly's hanging with the rest of 51 and Shay had the place to herself. She didn't really feel like she wanted company. She was sitting on the couch drinking a beer not really paying attention to what was on T.V, when she realized what she was thinking about.

"uuugghh... Shay! Why you got to start falling for Allison Rafferty!?" she moaned out loud, clearly annoyed at herself.

Since day one Rafferty had captured Shay's attention, She was tall (slightly shorter than Shay), she had brown hair styled in a 'Bob', and these chocolate brown eyes that had Shay weak at the knees. Rafferty was Dawson's replacement when she decided to take the fire-fighter's exam. This means she was Shay's new paramedic partner.

"Brains and beauty exactly my type..." shay grumbled and took another sip of her beer

Too bad Rafferty had made it clear she wasn't too happy to be paired up with another gay partner, after her last partner made graphic phone-calls to her girlfriend which obviously annoyed her.

"They say never fall for a straight girl... and now look what I'm doing...falling for a HOMOPHOBIC straight girl... uuugghh GREAT!"
