Oh yes, Jules was happy. Although she is again a year older. She was at work today, saved the people, and now she driving a car with three drunken friends who every day are deadly serious at work, and now they tell each other jokes, well don't hide this, those jokes don't make any sense. Oh, I'm sorry, that make sense for them. Callaghan feels very good, she sits next to her beloved, she feels safe with him, she knows what she wants, she wants him. She wants to spend day and night with him, she wants to grow old with him. She wants to have children with him. But there is one problem, a small problem. None of them knows about their relationship at work. They fear that a relationship with co-worker can hurt the whole team. They didn't have courage to tell them the truth. What if they accidentally find out about them, what if they will have feel sorry? No. Jules didn't want to think about it now, she goes to the bar to have fun, and drinks with friends. This is her day, the hour, and minute. She will be happy today. A day full of surprises, first ,her friends gave forgotten about her birthday. Second, Ed finally got his promotion. Now they have two sergeants. For this first sergeants she felt a great affection, he was her soul mate, she knew when he was in a bad mood, and he knows when she was. They shared a true friendship. Now please, the same sergeant who talks daily with criminals, desperate people, assassins, becomes the opposite and looks the straight in the eyes, now sitting in the back seat, completely drunk, not thinking about the problem … in fact , she don't know about Greg might think. It's hard to say. Spike….oh yes, Spike, no one like him disarm the bomb, really this guy has nerves of steel.
-We almost there – Jules heard the voice of her beloved. The voice soothed her, she could hear him for hours, but the beginning of their relationship wasn't successful. – Can you call to Wordy? Let us approach, it will be soon a detour.
-Sure – Jules pulled out a cell phone. Wordy, it was nice to see him, again. She missed him. Anyway, like everyone of the team One.
Finally they arrived at the place, parked cars and slowly got out. Apparently a matter of course but someone can complicated this. Let us return to out drunken trio, who decided to get off in a more original way. Why go through you door when you can get off the trunk and the driver's door? Logical isn't? Spike tried to open the door, but his eyes were playing trick on him, instead of the one, he saw two handles, which one she should choose? Yeah, he chose this non-existent.
-Boss?
-Yes? – Greg moved close to Spike.
-I think we have a problem.
-What?
-I can't open the door.
Parker thought for a moment, followed by repeating the error mate, also chose a non-existent handle. Ed trying to be more creative , and picked the trunk. He did it very well. Glad he went out. Jules standing net to Leah, they laughed quietly. Wordy with Winnie leaned against the car, looking at the situation.
-Why are you looking like that? – asked Ed, who improved his shirt.
-Nothing. Are you okay? You look like you just had … - Continued Sam, when Lane turned away from him, ran to fence and threw up.
-Ohhh – sober part of the team laugher loudly. Wordy felt that he made the right decision, to show up once again in the team, never mind that just for one day, and as a civilian. It's still the same people.
-Ed, you need help? – asked Jules, concerned. Lane shook his hand, implying that everything is fine. Sam gave him a white towel. After a while, Parker joined to them, going out by the driver's door. Sun slightly offended his eyes, hi covered them with his hands. A few seconds passed and the pain gone. Greg's joy when he saw Lane leaning next to fence was unprecedented. Gentleman was founded in the car who first will be feel sick.
Spike came out just like Parker. His reaction to the light was quite similar like Greg's except that the young technician set up a pair of sunglasses.
-So, we're going to play? – said Mike.
-Of course – said Wordy.
Sam put a towel into the car, and then he closed it. Jules, Leah and Winnie excitedly entered the bar. The band was playing a variety of songs. Women's sat at the table, quite large, in the end had to accommodate even the boys. After a while Spike and Wordy went to a bar. Behind them Greg, Ed and Sam. All eight friends already seated at the table. First round had put Jules, aftrer collecting orders, she went to the bar. This situation Sam couldn't lose, he had the opportunity to talk privately with Jules. Waiting for drinks Sam grabbed her hand, women looked at him with affection. Both recently confessed their love, wanted to say everything of all this. Jules felt a strange feeling that today might be the right moment for this. Sam saw her thoughtfulness.
-What about are you thinking?
-What?
-About what do you think? – repeated Sam.
-I thought that maybe today… - Jules hesitated. Same came even close to her.
-Honey?
-Maybe we should take advantage of the fact that boss is drunk, and tell him about us.
-Are you afraid of Greg?
-He is our boss, if something happens, he will be have inside department on his shoulders.
-Hey baby, Take it easy. Nothing is going to happened.
-You know what I mean. When a man is in love, he don't thinking rationally. When we are in work we must be focused on 200%.
Sam looked straight into Jules's eyes. He brushed her hair back. – Honey, I'm always focused, only on you view, of course, be distracted, but only for a few seconds.
-Those few seconds could cost live one of our team.
-Jules?
-Yes.
-Don't talk about this now. You have a birthday. Let's go to them and just let's party. What do you think?
Jules smiled. She knew that this case doesn't give her peace in the neat future, but Sam was right. It was supposed to be her day, today is a good time.
-Your drinks! – Barman put alcohol on the counter. Team at the table began to get impatient. When Sam and Jules put the drinks on the table , there was a euphoria. Wordy erected the first toast. He picked up his drink and said.
-My dear, I will use this opportunity today that Jules's birthday, best wishes. I wanted to say that the years when I worked with you were the best time of my life, not including of course my family. A lot of time passed and I will never forget it. I am very glad that you got the promotion Ed. You deserver for it. But boss?
Wordy turned to Greg, who listened him attentively. – What?
-If Ed is sergeant now, maybe it's time to take care of lieutenant?
-Patience, Wordy.
-Hey! Do you think he is better than me? – Lane slightly indignant.
-Of course I am. You are Loser! – Greg added. Everybody drank for that. Again, they were all together, there wasn't Lou, but everybody felt his presence. That day they will drink for him. The band played a song "You Sexy Thing – Hot Chocolate". Boys revived immediately. Spike grabbed Winnie to dance. Wordy asked Jules, and Sam , Leah. Greg and Ed were alone on the couch. They both looked at each other suspiciously. Dancing Callaghan looked at Wordy with disbelief.
-They will not do it, right?
-I'm afraid, but they do. – Wordy smiled.
Ed got up from the couch, stretch out a hand to sitting Greg. Parker looked at him.
-Gregory Parker, will you dance with me?
Parker stood up. – With the greatest pleasure!
At the sight of two policemen dancing in the rhythm of the song, with goofing , people began to clap. The two were stars of the night.
