I don't own these characters just a fan wanting to tell a story. Hope you enjoy!


Eddie sat in the chair with her laptop. She would write a sentence, delete it, and try again. She rewrote the same sentence fifty times not getting it to sound the way she wanted. She groaned in frustration.

"Why can't I write this DAMN sentence?" she sighed squeezing Jamie's hand. She wished he was awake so she could ask him how she should overcome the love triangle she created. She reluctantly hit save, closed her laptop, and set it aside.

"Hi, am I interrupting?" Noble asked coming into the room. She was standing awkwardly with her hands in her pockets.

"No," Eddie replied, "Have a seat." All of the Reagans had work today, so she was lonely.

"How is he doing?" Noble inquired taking a seat.

"The doctor says he isn't developing an infection which is good, but he is still in a coma and they don't know how long it may take for him to come out of it," Eddie remarked looking hard at the face of the man she loved, so lifeless and cold.

"I can't imagine what you are going through," Noble said quietly.

"Yeah," Eddie answered, "It's been pretty rough." her voice caught in her throat. "The Reagans have been so supportive with everything. I don't know if I would have made it without them."

"I know you two were partners, how did it turn into a relationship?" Noble questioned, not trying to pry.

"I don't really know." Eddie admitted, "My guess was the all the time we spent together after work." Eddie took a deep breath,she smiled remembering all the fun times they had together, "When I got pregnant it kind of threw things into motion."

"When did you know that you guys cared for each other more than just partners?" Noble urged, seeing they way Eddie's eyes lite up.

"Probably our first kiss," Eddie said blushing. She wondered why She was telling a woman she had met once her story with Jamie. "We both had a little too much to drink and we were talking about how our parents loved the same song. We were standing just outside my apartment. It just happened. I knew I cared for him then, but I didn't admit I cared for him until a few years later." Eddie shared.

"How long had you known each other when you first kissed," Noble asked, remembering all the comments from the women in the precinct. She felt guilty for believing them and she wanted the truth.

Eddie gave a small laugh "Only a couple months." Eddie confessed, but she didn't regret it, not one bit.

"Woah," Noble remarked, softly.

"Can I ask you a question?" Eddie inquired after a comfortable pause.

"Sure." Noble answered.

"What are they saying about me at the House?" Eddie asked, "Jamie won't tell me."

Noble bit her lip but didn't say a thing.

"That bad?" Eddie filled in. She tried to be strong but she grabbed Jamie's hand tighter. Was her reputation worth that much to her?

"A lot of the women think you are trying to sleep your way up the ranks." Noble stated, "A couple of them have used choice words to describe you, though one woman stood up for you and defended you."

Eddie bit her lip, she knew that was what people would think but it still pained her to hear it.

"Do you believe I'm sleeping my way up the ranks?" Eddie articulated looking up at Noble.

"No!" Noble denied quickly, but Eddie gave her a stern look. "I did at first," Noble admitted, "but after I met you I knew you weren't. You and Reagan truly cared for each other." Noble justified.

Eddie nodded, she understood that. If she had been in Noble's position she probably would have believed what people said too.

"I can go if you want me to," Noble said. She started to rise thinking Eddie wouldn't want her there.

"No, stay." Eddie pleaded. "I actually have something I need help with. Have you read any stories with love triangles?"

"Yeah, a few." Noble admitted.

"Are you willing to listen to a writer rant about her story for a little while?" Eddie queried.

"Sure?" Noble consented, confused as to what she was a agreeing too.

Eddie started to explain her dilemma and how she didn't know how to fix it. Noble was soon pulled into Eddie's world of fictional characters.


Noble looked over the page, she set the laptop down after reading through Eddie's story.

"I agree with Jamie, Adrianna and Adam belong together!" Noble remarked enthusiastically.

Eddie groaned, "No, it's Adrianna and DUSTAN!"

"Adrianna and Adam make more sense." A voice from the bed said. Eddie jumped as the hand she was holding gripped hers. She saw that Jamie's eyes were open and looking at her.

"Jamie!" She exclaimed. "Go get the nurse," Eddie said to Noble, she nodded.

"How long have I been out?" Jamie asked groggily.

" A couple days." Eddie answered. She couldn't help but smile, he was awake.

"What happened?" Jamie questioned, closing his eyes again to rest.

"You got shot," Eddie informed him "twice."

Jamie's eyes shot open, "Noble, is she okay?"

"Yeah, she was just in here with me, waiting for you to wake up. She just went to get the nurse." Eddie assured.

Jamie relaxed holding Eddie's hand in his. He wondered if she had stayed at the hospital every day, but was too tired to ask.

"I need to call your family," Eddie remarked as nurses entered the room. She reluctantly let go of his hand. She left the room to call the family and tell them the happy news.


"When can he go home?" Eddie questioned.

"We want to keep him under observation for a couple days." Dr. Walker stated.

"I understand," Eddie nodded. As soon as she walked back into Jamie's room, he glanced at her and smiled.

"How are you doing?" He asked, his voice soft and tired.

"Better now that you are awake." Eddie replied taking her seat beside him again.

"I'm sorry for scaring you." Jamie apologized.

"Don't ever do this to me again!" Eddie ordered, relief still washing over her.

"I don't plan to." Jamie answered squeezing her hand.

"Hey." Danny said entering the room. Followed by the rest of the Reagan clan. Eddie was so distracted that Jamie was awake she didn't notice members of the family had yellow paint on their clothing. When they realize this, they quickly moved to the back of the group.

The rest of the evening was spent with the family enjoying the fact that Jamie was awake.


YAY! He's awake! even if I wanted to I wouldn't have been able to kill Jamie. I just love Eddie and Jamie TOOO much :) I love you guys!
