It was a brisk October afternoon, five months since Jamie and Eddie shocked everyone with their unexpected engagement after the Sorrento shooting. Jamie's family was happy for them, however, they faced a few critics at the precinct. Many thought this was just confirmation of what they figured was going on for years. Their close friends at the precinct like Walsh, Welch, McKenna, and Righetti knew the truth and were very excited that they were finally together. Frank, as well as the precinct commanders was not thrilled when they decided to fight against the unwritten rules to continue being partners. For the most part they did continue to ride together with the exception of training days and when new recruits needed a senior officer to ride with.

This was a quiet week at the twelfth, there were no more trainings this month and the next Academy class didn't graduate for another 3 weeks. Jamie and Eddie were riding together for the first time in 10 days. The only thing that kept them from going crazy during those days was that at least they had the same shift. They had been trying to organize the last few things for their wedding in December. They decided they wanted to spend their first Christmas together as a married couple.

This week they were on swing shift. They were sitting in their RMP, during their meal just enjoying being back in the car together.

"Are you going to finish those fries?", Eddie asked.

"Geez, Janko, what's with you today - 2 cheeseburgers, almost 2 servings of fries and cookies? You're eating enough for an Army. ", Jamie teased her.

"I'm crazy hungry today, it must have been that workout you gave me this morning.", Eddie told Jamie with a smirk. Jamie leaned over and whispered into her ear, "I guess you better eat up so you have the strength for another one tonight." Eddie felt a shiver go down her spine as she felt Jamie's breath in her ear. He always knew how to get to her.

"10-31 at 24th and Lexington Ave", came over the radio startling Eddie and Jamie back to reality.

"12-David, show us responding", Jamie called into Central Command while Eddie turned on the lights and sirens.

As they arrived on scene they saw two perps in hooded jackets running out of the bodega, one in green and the other black. Eddie jumped out of the car and yelled to Jamie, "I got the one in green!" "Copy that." Jamie responded. They both took off down the street until the one in green turned down an alley, the other perp continued down the street.

Jamie continued to chase the perp in the black hoodie for another block before tackling him on the sidewalk. After handcuffing him, he proceeded to call in the arrest to central and request another unit anticipating Eddie's capture of the second perp before heading back the two blocks to their patrol car. McKenna and Righetti were waiting there by the time he got back to the car.

"Hey Reagan, what's up? Where's Eddie?", asked McKenna.

"Chasing down the second guy, can you put him in the back of your car? Jamie asked. I need to see if Eddie needs help."

"Sure, no problem.", Righetti replied as he took the perp from Jamie.

Meanwhile, Eddie continued to chase the second perp down the alley yelling "Stop, Police." She tackled him at the end of the alley after he tripped on a box while checking to see how close she was to him. As she was trying to cuff him, he was fighting her by twisting and turning his body. She got one cuff on him and yelled at him, "Stop moving, you're not getting out of this!" He just grunted and groaned and continued to move around. Just as she got the second cuff on he twisted his body just enough to get Eddie off balance. Still holding onto him she managed to keep him down on the ground but not before getting her leg tangled up with his. Eddie screamed out in pain just as Jamie came running down the alley.

"EDDIE !", Jamie screamed out as he ran to her side.

"Take this idiot, will you." Eddie scowled.

Jamie pulled the guy off the ground and put his hand out for her to get up. "Damn, that hurts!" Eddie whined trying to stand up.

"What hurts?" Jamie asked.

"My wrist!", cried the perp, "That bitch put the cuffs on too tight."

"Maybe if you hadn't been moving around so much, they wouldn't be so tight!", Eddie snapped back. "My knee, he was moving around as I was trying to cuff him and my leg got caught under him."

"Do you think you can walk back?"

"Does hobbling count?", Eddie joked, "Just let me hold onto your arm."

Eddie attempted to hop next to Jamie as he walked up the alley.

"You're going to hop all the way up this alley and another block back to the car?" Jamie asked.

"Yeah, why not?"

"It will take you so long to hop back you'll probably miss your next two meals." Jamie teased her. Eddie just shot him a look showing she was not in the mood for his teasing right now.

"12-David to Central we need a bus to our location, officer needs assistance, no rush." Jamie called in first than made another call asking McKenna to come down the alley to come get the second perp.

"What's going on?" McKenna asked jogging down the alley.

"Janko here, hurt her knee as she was cuffing this guy and she's having trouble walking.", Jamie told him. "Can you take him and put him in the back of our RMP, I need to get her up to the car before the bus comes to check her out.

"I'm not arguing on this one, this really freaking hurts!", complained Eddie.

"You got it, Reagan." McKenna answered.

"Let's go get you checked out." Jamie told Eddie as he picked her up with one arm under her knees and the other around her waist and started walking back to their RMP.

"I could get used to this." Eddie laughed. "I really think I deserve a cape after this one."

"YOU? Who's the one carrying you like a superhero?" Jamie questioned.

"Um, that would be you, Officer Reagan." Eddie teased.

"That's Super Officer Reagan to you, Janko!"

The bus was just pulling up outside the bodega as Jamie was arriving back at the car. He carried Eddie right to the back of the ambulance. The EMT's came around the back of the ambulance.

"Hi, I'm Janet", tell me what happened. "I got tangled up with a perp while I was cuffing him and now my knee really hurts.", Eddie told her.

Janet's partner, Mark, had just brought the gurney down off the ambulance and Jamie placed Eddie on it.

"Let's see what's going on here, Officer Janko.", Janet said. She rolled up the leg of Eddie's pants to reveal a very swollen left knee. "You're going to need an X-ray, and probably an MRI, we're going to take you to St. Victor's."

Eddie sighed, "UGH, this is not what I need right now." She was still hoping it wasn't too serious. All Eddie could think about was whether or not she would be able to walk down the aisle at her wedding without limping. The wedding was only 2 months away now.

"Let me get back to the house and process this guy and I'll meet you there as soon as I can." Jamie leaned over and gave Eddie a quick kiss on the cheek and whispered "Love you" in her ear. Eddie smiled as Jamie rushed backed to the car.

Before heading off to the precinct, Jamie sent a text to Erin, hoping that she would be almost finished for the day.

J - Are you done work yet?

Erin - Just heading out the door now. What's up?

J - Eddie hurt her knee arresting someone and she's on her way to St. Vic's. Do you think you could head over and keep her company until I get there? I still have to process our collars before I can head over.

Erin - No problem, I should be there in about 20 minutes.

J - Thanks, sis!

On the way back, all Jamie could think about was Eddie and how she was doing. He couldn't imagine how she was handling not knowing what was going on with her knee. Hopefully it's just a sprain and after a few days rest she would be back at work. He still had at least an hour and a half of paperwork to complete after processing the dumbass sitting in the back of his car. At least Erin was going to keep her company before he could get there. Their wedding was in 2 months and he was sure she was worrying about that, hopefully Erin could keep her mind off of it.
