"Shit."

Jay sat up quickly when he heard Hailey's voice. "Did I sleep in again?" Someone stirred next to him. Looking over he saw... Foster? Shit was right.

"Well this is awkward." Emily said with a laugh, slipping her clothes on under the covers. "I'd better go," she said, quickly gathering her things. "See ya, Jay. That was fun." She said, winking at Hailey as she left.

Hailey just stood there, open mouthed. Finally, she looked at Jay. "Um, I didn't know you guys were a thing."

Well this was beyond embarrassing, he thought. "We're not." He said. "I mean, we were but we're not like... It was just a one time thing..." He was trying to stammer out an explanation.

This was so not like Jay, Hailey thought. He usually had his act together. She couldn't remember him ever talking about sleeping around before but maybe that just wasn't something they talked about? She had seen him the night before drinking at the bar, then when she couldn't find him later she just asked Kim for a ride home. Well, now we know where he went, Hailey thought.

"Um, Hailey? Can you turn around?" Jay asked, embarrassed. "I don't have clothes on."

"Sure thing." Hailey spun around, and Jay got out from under the covers.

Jay cleared his throat. "I'm good." Turning, she saw he was buttoning his shirt, and she saw a flash of those abs.

"How was your night?" He asked, trying to change the subject.

"Oh pretty uneventful. I got a ride home with Kim when you disappeared."

So she hadn't gone home with Adam? That was good, he thought. Why did he even care?

"You're night looked pretty eventful." She raised her eyebrows. "Foster? Really?" She didn't know why she was so I interested.

"Yeah. Think I had too many drinks." He said awkwardly. "I've got a splitting headache."

"Well, we better go so we can pick up a coffee cure," she told him.

Their drive to work was silent this morning. Jay was cursing himself. A one night stand was totally out of his character. But seeing Hailey with Adam had triggered something in him, and he wasn't quite sure what it was.

Arriving at the district, Voight was ready for them to get the day started. "Alright team, after some convincing, Morales is gonna set up a meet with the guy who paid him off, said his name is Arturo. That's all he knows. He's got a burner phone number, were gonna see if the guy bites."

The team worked on paperwork until Voight informed them ,"we've got a meet, suit up."

Hailey stood outside the warehouse, ready to catch any runners coming out the back door. Sure enough, after she heard Voight identify himself as Chicago P.D. inside the warehouse, a young man ran out the back. Hailey pursued, gun in hand. As she followed the man around a corner, he pulled out a pistol, firing two shots at her. "Shots fired, suspect is armed, I'm in pursuit down the east alley," she said into her radio.

Slowly creeping down the alley, Hailey's senses were on edge. Suddenly, the man jumped out from behind her, taking her down to the ground. Knocking her gun out of her hand, the assailant pointed his gun at her head, "Not so tough now, bitch," he spat at her.

Hailey heard a shot and he fell over. Hailey pushed him off of her and looked back the alley to see Jay, gun raised. "You good?" He asked.

"Yeah," she replied breathlessly. "I'm good."

Jay held out his hand and helped her stand up. "Little to close, Hail. You should've waited for me."

"You know me, take charge kinda girl." She smiled.

Returning to the office, they had a bunch of paperwork to fill out since there had been an officer involved shooting. The man who attacked Hailey was one of Arturo's croonies, their actual suspect was currently in interrogation with Voight ripping him apart.

"Alright." Jay said, putting down his pen. "Wanna go to Molly's?"

"Nah. I'd rather go home." She told him. Almost dying had a way of making you exhausted. "I can get a ride though, I'm sure Emily would like to see you at Molly's." She said quietly.

"No, I think I'd rather avoid Molly's for that reason," he said honestly. "Drinks at your place?"

"Sure," she said, and they headed home.

After picking up her car at Jay's, he followed her back to her place. Unlocking her door, she went to the cabinet. Jay took his usual seat at the kitchen island while she poured whiskey.

"Man," Jay said, "What's the tally for how many times I've saved your butt?" He asked. "Don't I get a reward by now?"

She laughed, "Being my partner should be reward enough."

"Touché," he grinned, raising his glass.

They sat on the couch, turning on the Bears game, talking about odds and ends.

"Okay, so Adam was telling me this joke today-" Hailey started to say, but Jay interrupted her.

"So what's the deal with you guys... Are you still a thing?" He asked nonchalantly.

Why did he care? "Nah. It was fun while it lasted but workplace relationships get a little messy, ya know?"

"It didn't look over last night."

"I didn't realize you cared so much."

"Well like you said," Jay pointed out, "workplace relationships are messy. If you and Adam are going to be on and off all the time, that effects the whole team and that's going to effect how well we all work together."

Hailey looked at him, shocked. "So," she began slowly, "you're saying sleeping with people we often work with is bad for the whole team?"

"Exactly." He said triumphantly.

"Like sleeping with a paramedic?" She jabbed.

"Oh." Jay hesitated. "But we don't work with her all the time."

Hailey exploded. "It doesn't matter Jay! What makes you think you have any opinion on who I sleep with! I make my own choices, and I'm damn sure to not let it effect the team!"

"Well of all people, Adam's a bad choice, I mean I like the guy but especially after what he did to Kim I wouldn't call him relationship material."

"Unbelievable." She said, standing up and walking to the door, opening it. "I've had enough of your opinions for one day." She said, motioning for him to leave.

"Geez, what's your problem?" He said, walking out.

"I can drive myself tomorrow." She said, and slammed the door in is face.

What nerve of that guy, telling her Adam was a bad choice. She was fuming. He thought she wouldnt put her team first? She wasn't allowed to just have fun with someone? Like she needed him to approve her relationships. She had a difficult time falling asleep, she was too busy trying to think of how she was going to get back at Jay the next day.
