Ryan: "Hey" she whispers, motioning Cruz off to the side "So? Did it come?"

Cruz: "Yeah."

Ryan: "And?"

Cruz: "I passed." he sighs, watching Ryan's eyes widen in excitement

Ryan: "Oh, my God!" she exclaims, surprising the others sitting in the room

Cruz: "Shh, shh!" he grits, awkwardly nodding to the others as he pulls her out of the room "Hush."

Ryan: "What? Why aren't you more excited?"

Cruz: "Because I haven't told Otis yet. And right now I'm not so sure I actually should."

Ryan: "Oh, come on. You worked hard for this. You should be shouting it from the rooftops."

Cruz: "The rooftops are crumbling. Okay? Truck and Squad barely wanna look at each other and-oh, shh!" he hums, turning to face where Otis moves over to them

Otis: "What's going on?"

Ryan: "Nothing." she shrugs, exchanging a look with Cruz as Otis furrows his brows

Otis: "You two have a secret."

Cruz: "We have many secrets, Otis."

Otis: "Oh, yeah? Like what?"

Ryan: "If we told you then they wouldn't be a secret." she shrugs, moving around Otis to walk out the room as she does an excited motion at Cruz who widens his eyes, motioning her to walk off

Arya: "Morning, Hermann." she pants, rushing into the locker room

Hermann: "Hey. What'd you sleep through your alarm clock?"

Arya: "Eh, something like that." she chuckles, pulling her shirt off which reveals large bandages wrapped around her wrist

Hermann: "Jeez, what happened there?" he breathes, motioning to her arms "Looks like it hurts."

Arya: "Oh, not so much anymore" she shrugs, pulling her jacket on "Catch ya later." she hums, hurrying out the room as Hermann watches her with a concerned look

Ryan: "You're in a happy mood." she hums, watching Dawson move around the kitchen, humming to herself

Dawson: "Well, it is a beautiful morning."
Ryan: "Uh huh.

Brett: "So I take it this means things with Joseph are going good."

Dawson: "Oh, they are more than great."

Ryan: "Hmm. I take it you've missed his stamina?" she chuckles, taking a sip of her coffee

Dawson: "Like never before" she breathes, moving to lean against the counter "I don't know what it is but things feel different. I feel different."

Brett: "Good, different or bad?"

Dawson: "Good different."

Ryan: "Well, cheers to you." she smiles, holding her mug up as the three clink their glasses together

Hermann: "Hey, Brett."

Brett: "Hey."

Hermann: "You've spent a good amount of time with Hayes, right?"

Brett: "Yeah."

Hermann: "Any of you ever noticed anything up with her?"

Dawson: "Like what?"

Hermann: "It's the second time she's come in with wrapped up wrists, stained with blood."

Ryan: "You think she's hurting herself?"
