Halstead got out of the car and ran to the drivers side of the car to stay out of the line of fire. Erin had gotten out and had her weapon drawn.
"Put your weapon down!" She could hear Voight yelled.
Halstead looked at her. This wasn't going to end well.
"Where is Detective Halstead?" The shooter shouted.
Jay looked at Lindsay, and his face went white. "Who is that?" She asked.
Jay shook his head, "No idea."
Jay stood up with his weapon above his head. Lindsay saw the shooter turn and the gun was still in their hand. "Jay no!" She shouted. But, it was too late. The shot was fired and it was like it way playing in slow motion. The bullet came closer and closer until it came in contact with Halstead's abdomen. He fell back immediately. Lindsay heard more shots fire and she went to help Jay. The shooter must be dead by now with the amount of shots fired from each detective's gun.
"Jay?" Erin looked like she had tears in her eyes.
"I'm fine!" Jay shouted; his bulletproof vest had taken it, but the wind was still knocked out of him and his stomach would be bruised, but other than that he was fine.
Erin swallowed hard and blinked a few times. She had never felt like that when anyone else was shot at. With Jay it was different; it was like a part of her was being shot down with him. She loved him in a different way than she loved Severide. She just couldn't tell what kind of love it helped Jay up and the ambulance was there ready to check Jay out.
"Your boy got shot." Antonio said to Erin.
"I know that." She said blankly.
"You look a little…I don't know…rattled?"
She nodded her head, "He's my partner."
"He was wearing a vest."
She nodded her head again.
"Do you think your feelings are a little deeper than a partner?"
"No." She replied immediately. "Of course not."
Antonio smiled and nodded his head, "He's going to be fine." He yelled back at her while he walked away.
"I know." Erin sighed under her breath.
Voight went up to her after, "You okay?"
She chuckled, "I didn't get shot."
He smiled at her, "I know that. He's fine, by the way."
"I know that, why does everyone keep telling me that?"
"Because when he went down, you went right after him."
"Is that a problem?" Erin knew what Voight was alluding to, but she wasn't going to let him win, not this time.
"No, but just remember that he's your partner. Not anything more."
"You've told me that so many times I hear it before I go to sleep." Erin rolled her eyes and walked away. She knew Voight was going to yell at her later, but she didn't really care.
