Summary
emery and samira have been hooking up for three months, and samira's freaking out about how much she cares about emery and what that means for her anxious-avoidant self. featuring pathetically down bad emery.
***
“No,” Emery says again, firmer and sharper this time. “Something’s off. You’re -” she jerks her chin at Samira, “you’re all stiff even after you said you’d stay and I can’t figure out what’s wrong and I want to.”
“Why?” Samira raises an eyebrow in challenge, meeting Emery’s gaze head-on as she waits. “Why the fuck do you even care?”
“I - what?”
“It’s not that hard,” Samira scoffs. Except she and Emery both know it’s just a front to hide all the hurt and sadness she feels.

Summary
during a night shift on her 30th birthday, samira decides to shoot her shot and ask emery out.
***
“I just -” Samira says, feeling the need to justify herself even though she’s gotten the reassurance she was subconsciously looking for. “I just meant you’re… I don't know, softer like this. More human and less scary.”
The words rush out in a panicked vomit, unable to stay inside even as Emery stops on the sidewalk in front of her.
“I know. I get what you meant.”
Emery hesitates for a moment, jaw working as she thinks. “I’m different at work,” she says eventually. “Can't really be soft, can I? But I'm glad I can be with you.”

***
“Mira?” Emery tries, voice barely louder than a whisper but still echoing off the walls of the silent room. She can see Samira's form shift under the covers, but she doesn’t roll over.
“Hmm?”
“Is everything okay?” It’s nowhere near subtle and not even the question Emery really wants to ask – a desperate are we okay?, or maybe even do you still love me? – but that's all she can manage right now.
“Yeah,” Samira mumbles. “ Of course it is.”

emery and samira were together, until it all fell apart. now here they are, angry and hurt and so confused.
***
“What do you want from me?”
“I don’t know!” Samira exclaims. “Fucking hell, Emery, do I need to spell it out for you?”
“Well, apparently you do!”
“Just -” Samira exhales sharply, dropping her head for a moment before meeting Emery's eyes again. Fresh anger flashes through them but there’s sadness there too, oddly enough. “Just admit that it hurt you too, that I'm not the only one who was affected by it.”

Summary
The silence stretches again. Garcia doesn’t move to leave. Baran isn’t sure whether she has more to say or if she doesn’t want to leave Trinity quite yet. Neither option is appealing to Baran.
“Did you know? About us?”
“I suspected,” Garcia admits, sees the half-mortified look on Baran’s face and continues. “She gets soft around you. Not in her words or her body. But something just relaxes a little. No one else sees it.”
“You do,” Baran says quietly.
“Well, I have practice seeing Trinity.” Again, it stings. Garcia looks away. Baran looks away.

Summary
Near the tailend of her shift, Garcia finally got a moment to herself after slipping out of the elevator on the eighth floor, and she beelined for a spot near the locker room that she knew to get little foot traffic. The vibration of her pager rivaled the beating of her own heart and only in its absence did she realize how it had soundtracked her day.
She checked her phone: still no birthday wishes. That was to be expected, she reasoned. Most people are busy wrangling their families on this day, so there’s not much room for her to pass their minds. It’s not personal. There were, however, four missed calls from her mother, and a text shortly after:
Te olvidas de tus padres
The message was so classically her mother that she couldn’t help but laugh. No birthday wish or any sort of preamble, just a straight-up guilt trip: You forget about your parents.

Summary
Yolanda stands back up, flipping over the test without hesitation. She freezes when she sees reads the result, staring down at the piece of plastic.
"What does it say?" Trinity asks nervously, standing up when she doesn't get a reply. "Yolanda? It's negative again, right?"
Yolanda shakes her head, pushing the test over the counter closer to Trinity. "No, it's not."
The two black lines are aggressively strong, and Yolanda feels as Trinity stares at it in disbelief, a mirror image of her own posture.
"Oh my god," Trinity breathes out, leaning her weight on the counter, dragging her eyes from the test up to meet Yolanda's own. "What the fuck. We're having a baby."
"Yeah, we are," she says, pulling the shorter woman in for a crushing hug, nothing filling her head except Trinity Trinity Trinity as she breathes in the green apple smell of her hair and rubs one hand over the curve of her waist.

Despite literally all of her best instincts screaming for her not to, Trinity lets out a long, drawn out sigh, and asks, “What are you doing next Friday?”
Victoria’s eyes narrow in suspicion. “Why?”
“We’re going on a field trip, Crash,” she says. “It’s time to make your debut at Dyke Night.”
Yolanda’s gonna be so pissed.

Summary
“We’re matching, you like everyone knowing you’re mine?”
“Very much,” she whispers, leaning in to bite Santos’s bottom lip. She groans at the contact before Yolanda kisses her properly. “My handsome girl. All mine.”
“All yours,” Trinity breathlessly mutters back, threading her hand through Yolanda’s curls as she deepens the kiss. They’re so lost in the act that they don’t hear Whitaker rounding the corner and pushing open the door.
“Did you take my deodorant again—jeez, guys. Get a room.”
***
Trinity drags Yolanda, Dennis and Victoria to Pittsburgh's pride march, where no one seems to get the hint that her and Garcia are very much taken. Later that night, she shows Yolanda just how committed she is.
