[Placing a hand on her shoulder Erin squeezes gently as she sits down placing a glass of Bourbon into hand.] How's that so?

Just a rough week at work, and I'm still worried about fitting in. And then, well, guy troubles. [A rueful laugh as Megan gives Erin a small smile.]

On all acounts I think your fitting in well, everyone who speaks of you speaks highly. Perhaps your thinking too much into it take each day a step at a time.

Yeah, maybe. It just kind of feels like deja vu and I don't know if that's a good thing or not. I told you what happened in Los Angeles, didn't I?

When you've done something once already its okay to feel like that, moving house is one of life's biggest challenges let alone moving to an entirely new city.

[Taking a sip of her Bourbon Erin runs a free hand through her hair.] You told me about your ex boyfriend but didn't go into much detail.

[ooc- is it really bad that I've guessed so I'm hoping that my answer is correct?]

He wasn't just my ex-boyfriend. He was also my boss.

[Just saying that Megan needs a moment to take a good, stiff drink.]

And recently...there's someone else I've kind of started to see and he's another doctor...and I'm afraid of getting too close to him because I'm scared as heck that history will repeat itself.

I want to stay here. Build a future and a life. Not get my heart broken and have to run away again.

[ooc: Not at all. You were in the ballpark!]

[At Megan's first admission Erin tries her best to hide the suprise on her features as her friend admits further details to the relationship she was in before she left Los Angeles to move to the city of Chicago. Erin reaches over to place her hand back on Megan's shoulder to provide a small amount of encouragement for her to continue.]

Don't be afraid to let them in, talk out the issues you have as you'll need to know whether or not the person your interested in is as interested in you as you are with them. [Erin sighs]

We all want to have that safety, Megs but we also have to find a happy medium.

I don't know. Things with Connor are still so new, we're not even official yet, I don't want to drop this stuff on him and run him off.

[Chuckles.]

You have no idea how much I envy you. How are things with Jay, anyway?

At least tell me you'll think about it? I wouldn't suggest such an idea if I didn't think that it was right too.

[She thinks the comment Megan made is a compliment, at least Erin hopes it is. Just in case she'll take a gulp of her Bourbon.]

How so? ... He's asked for me to move in with him.

That's great. That's amazing. I mean I assume you said yes.

[She chuckles.]

See that's what I want. A nice stable relationship. But I always fall for people I work with and it always gets messed up.

I haven't answered him yet but I intend to say yes when I see him next, I just need to make a decision on whether or not to do it whilst were at work or to wait until we get home.

[Erin follows Megan's laughter with one slightly filled with nervousness.] Your wrong, Megs, I'm unstable at the best of times, I don't always make the best of decisions with us living together I'm slightly worried it'll effect us somehow.

I'm just wondering what it is about doctors that I keep getting mixed up with. Chase and Jack and now Connor. It's like doctors and Severide.
