Sorry I took long to post another chapter. I will do my best to post everyday this week. There is a two week time jump in this chapter. The italics at the beginning are a dream. Thanks for the positive feedback. I hope you all enjoy this chapter as well.

Two weeks later…

"Clear!" Erin yelled.

She heard shots fired from the next room, the room that Jay had went to search. Erin sprinted toward the room, finding Jay in a pool of his own blood.

"Jay!" Erin screamed, running towards him. "Officer shot! Hold on Jay! You're gonna be ok! Stay with me!"

"I love you," Jay told her in a low voice, before he closed his eyes.

"NO!" Erin jumped forward. She got up from her bed, trying to shake the dream she just had. This wasn't the first time she had a dream like this, it's been happening more frequently within the last two weeks, and Erin wasn't sure why. She started to get ready for work, fearing what her mind was trying to tell her. Could it be telling her that she had feelings for Jay? Or could it be warning her of a crisis they will find themselves in?

Erin and Jay sat at their desks at work, which were straight across from each other. Half of the day went by, while the unit searched for more information on the drug ring they were still trying to bring down. Jay talked on the phone with one of his CIs, while Erin watched him from her desk. Erin had enjoyed having the opportunity to have a break from Kelly the last two weeks. It gave her a chance to think, and gave her a chance to spend time with Jay. They would go to the gym together and have dinner at each other's apartments when they could. It was nice to have him around again.

Erin's phone buzzed in her desk drawer. It was a text from Kelly. "Hey Erin. Want to see you tonight. 6 pm outside the firehouse." Erin contemplated responding, but she knew she had to figure out what came next for her. She still had feelings for Kelly, and she really did want to make things right with him, if he was willing to do the same. She responded with a simple "Okay."

As the text went through, Voight came storming out of his office, with his leather jacket on. "We've got a location on the leader of the drug ring, Ramon Alves, that we've been trying to take down. Halstead, you're with Lindsay. Ruzek with Olinsky. Atwater and Antonio, you're with me. Let's move!"

Erin and Jay walked toward the car. Erin's mind was racing in one hundred different directions. Jay got into the driver's seat mainly to test Erin; she never let him drive, and he knew something was not right with her. Erin didn't say anything, and sat in the passenger's seat.

"Okay, either hell just froze over, or there's something on your mind." Jay said with a laugh.

Halstead started driving toward the abandoned warehouse. Erin looked over at him, "Kelly texted me, he wants to meet up tonight." Erin explained to him.

"And the soap opera continues," Jay said sarcastically, "Will Erin go see her estranged fireman boyfriend, or will she stay away? On the next episode of-"

"Oh yeah, very funny," Erin cut him off, playfully punching his arm. "This is when I need girlfriends to talk to." Jay swerved between two cars, almost driving onto the sidewalk. "And this is also why I always drive," Erin said smiling.

"Ha ha," Jay said with a grin.

Lindsay and Halstead pulled up to the north side of the building, and Ruzek and Olinsky entered from the back, with Voight, Atwater, and Antonio following. They entered the warehouse, noticing that there was nothing but empty shelves and cardboard boxes in the main room. They noticed a few smaller rooms and the unit split up to search them. Halstead and Lindsay took two rooms next to each other, on the opposite side of the building as the rest of the team. Erin felt an eerie sense of déjà vu, as she walked toward the first door.

She entered her room and yelled, "Clear!" as there was nothing inside. She then followed in the direction of Jay. Jay was moving quickly, not waiting for Lindsay to be his back up. Jay kicked down the door.

"CPD! No one move!" Jay shouted at the men in the room.

In the room sat two large, dark haired men sitting on a table, surrounded by cash and the deadly heroin the unit was after. One of them was Alves. Out of nowhere, another man appeared, gun in hand, and he was running toward the room, firing his weapon, as he got closer. The two men started running toward the door, along with the shooter.

"Damn it, Halstead!" Erin ran toward the room, without thinking. Voight, Antonio, and Atwater were chasing down the men. "Shots fired at the police! Requesting backup!" Antonio screamed into the walkie-talkie.

Erin entered the room, finding Jay standing up, and leaning against the wall. She ran toward him and looked for his wound. The shooter missed his vest; he was shot in the upper shoulder. Erin felt tears burn in her eyes, she hated to see Jay injured. She tried to keep it together but Jay noticed that she was scared.

"Hey look at me. I'm fine, Lindsay. It went through. Did you get them?" Jay asked.

"I-I don't know. We need to get you to a doctor. You need stitches for your shoulder. And that humongous gash on the side of your head."

"There's an ambulance on the way," Ruzek said, panting.

"Did you catch them?" Halstead asked.

"Two of them…the leader…got a…away." Ruzek explained, still panting.

The ambulance pulled up, and the EMTs were quickly to the room Jay was in. He refused to be put on a stretcher, and insisted he walk under his own will to the ambulance. Erin was close behind him, and rode with him in the ambulance. She tried to comfort Jay as the EMTs started to tend to his wounds.

Jay was very lucky. Like the last time he got shot at Molly's bar, the bullet went through. All he needed was some stitches, and some rest for a few days, and he should be good to go soon. They were all relieved at the news, especially Erin, and she refused to leave his side. She even offered to take Jay home when the doctors released him the next morning (they were keeping him overnight for observations, since he hit his head when he fell).

"This is stupid." Jay complained from his hospital bed.

Erin laughed. "You hit your head pretty hard when you went down. They're just making sure you're head isn't messed up."

"It was before I hit my head. I'm probably more messed up now."

"I believe it." Erin said, smiling at him.

Erin looked at her phone to check the time. 5:38. She told Kelly she would meet him at the firehouse at 6, but she didn't want to leave Jay, after everything they went through today.

"Jay, I told Severide I would meet him at firehouse 51 at 6 but I can -" Erin started to explain.

"Go. Take care of your business. I'll be here when you get back. I promise." Jay told her reassuringly.

Erin gave him a smile and walked out of the room, unsure what was going to happen next on this eventful day.
