I don't own these characters just a fan wanting to tell a story, hope you enjoy!
Eddie lay napping on the couch, her body curled up under the blanket Jamie had placed across her. He loved how she looked in the peace of sleep. He was thinking about what was going to happen to Eddie, she couldn't work right now, with her leg and her arm, but by the time that they healed she would be halfway through her second trimester, and she can't be a cop pregnant, unless she stayed on modified assignment, which would kill her. Which brought up another question, he was going to have to get a new partner. He dreaded that thought it had taken Eddie a little while to warm up to him and understand he didn't think he was some big shot because his last name was Reagan. He sighed. He wanted Eddie to wake up so he could talk to her, but he knew she was exhausted from the week she had had, and she was pregnant with twins. He got up from his chair at the table and walked to the fridge, he saw that he was low on food. "I might as well go the store while she asleep." He left a note saying where he would be and left
It was a little while later Eddie awoke to find his note. She smiled, that he had taken the time to write a note. She looked around the apartment, studying it. It was bigger than hers it even had an office which could be turned into a nursery. It hurt to stand for long periods of time but she grabbed the crutch the hospital had given her she hated using it but it was less painful. She walked to Jamie's room and opened the closet, she was surprised to find it very roomy with about two feet of unoccupied space, and she looked around some more. Figuring out where he kept things and studying his interior design. She heard the front door open, and Jamie's voice says "I'm home," she loved the way, his voice made her feel. Her heart would jump and a warm feeling would spread through her whole body. She also smelled something heavenly, cook meat and fried delishness her mind told her. She limped into the kitchen and saw Jamie holding bags of groceries and an overnight bag she recognized to be hers.
"I picked this up from my Dad's so you won't have to keep borrowing mine," Jamie said when he saw Eddie looked confused at the sight of the bag she had left at the Reagan residence
"Thanks," Eddie said with a smile, "Always so thoughtful!"
"I picked up some cheeseburgers while I was out, your favorite." He stated,
"You are an ANGLE!" Eddie exclaimed, happier than when Jamie had produced the overnight bag.
They sat at the table as they ate.
"Jamie, I was wondering." Eddies started,
"What?" Jamie questioned seeing that Eddie didn't continue.
"Never mind it's nothing," Eddie muttered eating a few fries.
"Well, there is something I want to talk to you about," Jamie said, sense slightly what Eddie had wanted to ask.
"I know things are moving kinda fast and the past week has been really crazy, but I think we should move in together." Jamie stated, watching Eddie's face for a reaction, "I can clean out the guest room and make it as a bedroom, I just don't want to miss any moments with our kids just because we live in different places.
"I agree, your apartment is bigger, but I was more of thinking that the office could become nursery and your bedroom became ours." Eddie admitted, her heart hammered, but she knew it was best to speak the truth, "We have been practically dating for the past three years anyway, most couples move in sooner."
Jamie smiled, biting his lip the way he always did when he smiled.
"I'm sure I could find room for your clothes in my closet." He said, genuinely.
"Then it's settled, I have always liked your apartment better than mine, and you have a short drive to the precinct," Eddie remarked.
"Speaking of which, what are you going to do with work?" Jamie questioned.
"I don't know," Eddie answered, honestly, "I have met with the boss on Monday to discuss what to do."
"I'm not looking forward to a new partner." Jamie sighed.
"Yeah me neither," Eddie complained, "What if I get someone who actually lets me drive." Said in fake horror.
Jamie and Eddie laughed together; at the fact, Jamie still wouldn't let her drive.
"Move fast!" He ordered pushing her through the doorway, misjudging where she was and slamming her hard into the doorway. She cried out in pain, from her bruised ribs
"You stupid bitch, why did you do that." He exclaimed hitting her in the back of the head with his hand, "Move or I'll shoot you in the head."
She felt so helps, her leg pulsed and she could tell she was losing a lot of blood. The cold of the metal press against her skull was the only thing that had her taking a step.
"Faster!" He commanded harshly.
"Freeze, Police!" a voice said and then a gunshot and Jamie lay dead on the carpet of the long hallway a bullet in his head.
Eddie shot up from bed screaming.
"Jamie!" She said desperately.
"What?" Jamie inquired softly; he had been scared stiff by her scream, it had awoken him. "What's wrong," Jamie asked again as Eddie clung to him.
"You were dead, he killed you." Eddie sobbed into his shirt.
"Hey, I'm right here." Jamie soothed, realizing it was just a nightmare and holding Eddie close.
"It felt so real," She said, clinging to him.
"I know, they always do, but they pass in time." Jamie said, softly trying to calm the shaking sobbing woman in his arms, "wanna talk about it?"
Eddie shook her head, "no" she rolled over and pulled his arms around her so one rested under her chin and the other lay on her growing stomach with hers clasped in his. Jamie's head resting on her shoulder.
Her sobs had quieted, and she was calming down, but Jamie wasn't. What had happened to her, he was beginning to fear that more had happened to her then she had let on.
"I dreamed he was walking me down the hall towards the back door. Then you said "freeze police" and the next thing I knew was you were dead with a bullet through your head. It felt so real," Eddie said quietly in the dark, Jamie held her even closer.
"I'm right here alive and well," Jamie assured, kissing her shoulder.
"I know," Eddie said with a shudder, "Don't leave me."
"I won't." He promised.
