Chad grabs for Emmy's body as he is jolted awake by a terrible nightmare but he quickly realizes she is not in the bed beside him.

She is in the kitchen cooking him breakfast for this very special day. Since her recent arrest, Emmy has had a very positive outlook on her life moving forward from that day. She has completely transformed herself as a person.

She is now the person she has always wanted to be for Chad. And what better way to show him than to celebrate his birthday?

She throws on a celebratory hat and dances into the bedroom, carrying the tray filled with breakfast foods for his birthday feast.

Chad smiles as she crawls on the bed and kisses him. "Happy birthday baby." She whispers in his ear, seductively biting its lobe. "I was thinking you could take the day off of work and we could go cake tasting together for the wedding. It's like, a full day of eating birthday cake."

Chad smiles at the idea although it is not possible. Chad already told the caption he would work today since the department is short staffed.

"And I was thinking you could join me in the field all day and we could get dinner after?" He suggests.

Emmy pulls away from Chad. "You want me to ride in the back of a cop car all day? Isn't that, kind of the opposite of what we are trying to accomplish?"

"Now that you say it out loud, I see your point. But yes, ride along with Fae and me. We could have so much fun together."

Emmy slumps in her spot on the bed. She doesn't like the idea of third-wheeling with her cop fiancé and his partner but she knows that this is Chad's day and if this is what he wants, it is what he is going to get.

"Okay. But you owe me ice cream."

"Great. I'll tell Fae you're coming along!" Chad jumps out of bed to call his partner.

"Super." Emmy grabs a bagel off of the tray that Chad has yet to touch and picks at it, shoving tiny pieces into her mouth.

She is going to have to change. She is not dressed for a day of detaining criminals at all.

"Okay. Let's go then!" Chad renters the room to fetch his fiancé for their fun-filled day roaming the city in search of criminals to apprehend.

Emmy is so excited.

Without having time to change in to something more appropriate for what they have planned, Emmy gets in the passenger seat of Chad's car and he drives them towards the department building to begin his shift.

Once they arrive at the building, the couple meets up with Officer Fae and Emmy does her best to avoid running in to her father. The last time she saw him, things did not end so well between them. She doesn't want anything bad to happen to anyone on Chad's birthday. She so badly wants everything to go smoothly so he has a good day and enjoys himself greatly.

The three of them shuffle in to the cop car assigned to them; Chad in the driver's seat, Fae in the passenger seat, and Emmy locked in the back seat like a criminal.

She has a bit of anxiety being in the back of this car. It reminder her of the worst qualities inside of her. The things she has tried so desperately to push down in order to make Chad happy. In order to make him love her.

The officers make their first stop of the day, finding a few men huddled in front of a small shop in town. The owner called the police, stating that the thugs were driving customers away.

Chad and Fae exit the car and approach the men.

Emmy recognizes several of the men. Andrew, her ex, used to ride with this gang. She almost joined their ranks a few times herself. she knows they are dangerous and fears for Chad and his partner. These men are notoriousfor killing cops and parading their bodies around like trophies.

Emmy exits the car and watches out for her husband-to-be and his partner. She is terrified that they are going to get hurt. The men are alerted of her presence as she makes a scene.

"Is that Emmy?" A few of the men whisper to one another. "I think it is." Two men slip off into the alley as they see the two armed officers approaching.

"What seems to be the matter, Officer?" The man in charge of the gang of thugs asks.

"I was hoping you could tell me that." Fae smiles, hoping these men will leave. "The owner says you're driving customers away. Is that true?"

"No ma'am. Haven't seen a customer enter there all day."

"Maybe that's because you and your friends here are standing right in front of the door?" Chad suggests. "How about you guys move over a few feet this way and me and my partner here will be on our way."

"I don't like cops telling me what to do." The man stands in Chad's personal space.

"And I don't like having to tell people what to do. That's why I'm asking. Please move you and your bikes over towards that tree there and we will be out of your hair."

"I don't think so, pig." The leader spits in Chad's face at the exact moment Emmy screams from behind the cop car he left her inside.

"Emmy!" Chad calls out to his fiancé.

Fae draws her weapon and shoots two of the men as they draw theirs. They drop to the ground. Chad wrestled for control of his weapon with the man who spit on him. Fae knocks the thug in the back of his head, knocking him to the ground. She calls for backup and handcuffs the man to a bike rack outside the business. She takes off after Chad who has run off in the direction he saw the two men drag Emmy in.

Emmy kicks and scratches at the men as best as she can despite their large fingers in her mouth to keep her from screaming. They shove her to the ground. Dirt flies into the air as her body smacks against it.

"Andrew is dead." One of the men reminds her.

"Yeah, I know." She responds, wiping the blood off of her lip and staring at it. "I killed him."

"Are you sure it wasn't your cop boyfriend? We heard her put you in jail a few weeks ago."

"Actually, I put myself there." She states, standing herself up. "What's your goal here?" She places her hands on her hips. "Kidnap me? Offer me up as random? Kill me? You guys let me know when you've actually formulated a plan so that way I can actually start to be scared of you."

"Emmy?!" Chad calls out for her.

Emmy panics. She sees the guns the men have and she knows they will use it on Chad once he gets close enough. She needs to do something before Chad gets himself into trouble.

"Better act quickly. It's not going to be pretty once he gets here." She warns them. The men begin to scramble. "Come on guys. I know you're the dumb ones in the group but I didn't think you were this dumb!"

One of the men draws his weapon, loading it and pointing it at Emmy's chest.

"It's about time you did something useful." She smirks. Emmy holds her hand out in Chad's direction as he and Fae arrive, guns drawn. "It's alright Chad. He won't hurt me. He doesn't have the balls." Emmy cocks her head to the side, watching the man crumple under her pressure. "Isn't that Right Ryan?"

"Put the guns down and nobody will get hurt!" Fae orders as chad steps closer to Emmy.

"Stop moving Chad!" Emmy turns her head briefly to look at him and warn him from getting any closer. The gun fires, sending Emmy crashing hard to the ground.

Bullets fly in every direction after the first bullet connects with Emmy's body. Both assailants are taken out of the equation and the bullets stop. Chad manages to escape the bloodbath with no wounds. Fae on the other hand, suffers a fatal wound to the forehead.

Emmy lays on the ground clutching her shoulder, staring at the beautiful blue sky above her.
