AN: This is the first thing I've written in years. I'm writing it because I'm going insane waiting for Jan 27th. Let me know what you think! Willing to accept ideas!!

"Hey shouldn't we wait for Diesel and Rodriguez before you slap the cuffs on them," Shawn asked Lassiter as he lay his head against the front of Lassiter's car, thoroughly exhausted from the day, not to mention the fact he had been holding back the tears his gun wound was causing him for nearly 18 hours.

Once Gus' car finally rolled close enough, he and Juliet jumped out. Gus ran to Shawn's side as Juliet ran to cuff Longmore's partner.

"Shawn, are you ok?"

"Yeah buddy. Hey, you wanna do me a favor?"

"Of course, what do you need?"

"Just stand a little to your left so no one can see me cry, this hurts like no other."

"Come on; let's get you to my car so you can sit down."

"Gus, you're gonna let me sit in your car even though I'm filthy and covered in blood? I feel honored." Gus looked at Shawn, almost reconsidering, but grabbed Shawn and made himself a crutch.

"Oh, let me help you Gus," Henry came and took Shawn's other side as they led him to the car.

"Gus, you called a tow truck, right," Henry asked.

"Yeah," Gus replied, wincing when he thought how much it was going to cost him, after all it was a company car and his insurance did not cover Juliet driving it, even if she was a detective.

After Juliet helped Lassiter get the murderer into the car, she walked back over to Gus' car. "Shawn are you ok," she asked as she nervously approached him.

"In relation to what? In relation to Longmore- great, I'm not dead! In relation to you- I'm not feeling so hot."

"Oh, Shawn," Juliet couldn't resist hugging him forcing him to wince a bit, "We were all so worried about you. Worried that you—sorry." Juliet teared-up a little as she let go.

"It's ok, it's all over now. Now, what's the plan because my ability to sustain my manhood is slowly failing, I really wanna cry from the amount of pain I'm in."

"Oh! Sorry. We just called some Uniforms, they're on their way to get this guy, he doesn't have any ID on him and he refuses to talk so we have no idea what we're dealing with yet. But Shawn if you can wait 10 minutes for the Uniforms to get here, we'll take you and Mr. Spencer to the ER while Gus waits for the tow truck, which by the way Gus, I'm really sorry about. Just send the bill to Chief and she'll take care of it."

"You will come to a realization that Lassie really IS fun to annoy, and join me in my Lassie games!" Shawn and Juliet both laughed as he 'read' her palm.

"Shawn! You should be more careful he really loves using his gun, and let me just tell you—" Juliet stopped speaking as Shawn looked up. She looked up and saw Abigail, walking towards them.

When Abigail got to them she bent down and gave Shawn a kiss, and Shawn's attention immediately transferred to his girlfriend. Juliet felt a twinge of jealousy. Of course Shawn would call in his girlfriend to comfort him as he pretended it hurt more than it did, just to get her to kiss it. If it had been a 4 months ago, she'd be the one he'd try to get to kiss it better, he'd smile that irresistible grin, making her smile despite her efforts not to, and even though she'd start off with a strong 'no', she'd end up kissing it better in the end. He had a force over her, he always had. But it wasn't 4 months ago, he was sick of waiting. She missed her chance, and even though she wanted to blame someone else, she knew it was her fault. "Jules" She should have known that Shawn wouldn't wait for her forever. He was handsome, charming, intelligent, and just reeked off fun. "Jules" He could make anyone laugh and knew-

"JULES," Shawn snapped in front of her face, "Are you alright? You seemed pretty out of it."

"Yeah, just really tired."

"Ok, well Abigail is here, so you can go home, they probably won't even get me in for another hour. You should get some sleep."

"Are you sure," Juliet asked as another wave of jealousy swept over her, Of course, he only wanted her company until his girlfriend got there.

"Yeah, I'm just gonna catch Abby up on my heroic tale anyway, your health is far more important than to hear the story again," Shawn smiled, "By the way, thanks for saving my life. I owe you."

"Shawn, you saved your own life, I was just the messenger."

Shawn saw the pain in Juliet's eyes, and knew that the memory of their conversation earlier must have been painful for her, and he wanted to apologize, but he couldn't in front of Abigail.
