Eddie:
I know, I know, we need to stop meeting like this. (she enters, Jaime looks bewildered) So, uh, I think we need to clear the air.
Jaime:
Yeah.
Eddie:
I've been thinking about what you- you said about me being... jealous of Tara.
Jaime:
I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry-
Eddie:
Yeah, well- the thing is, it's true.
Jaime:
... What are you talking about?
Eddie:
I was. Jealous of Tara. Just like I'm jealous every time you go on a date with somebody, every time you tell me how some girl is hot.
Jaime:
... Eddie-
Eddie:
Could you please not talk? This is, you know, this is really hard, so just let me get it off my chest.
Jaime:
Okay.
Eddie:
(takes a deep breath)... I have feelings for you. I have for a long time. (pause, Jaime stares at her) There, I said it. I do everything I can to make them go away. Because, I mean, you're not even close to my type, and you are a complete Boy Scout, and you make me crazy most of the time. You're also... the best person I think I've ever met. (starting to tear up) And you're the best friend I've ever had.
Jaime:
Look, I-
Eddie:
Is that you talking?!
Jaime:
Sorry.
Eddie:
... I know that you're my partner, and I don't want to do anything to screw that up. I just, I needed... to tell you that you're so much more than that. And if I didn't tell you, it was gonna get really weird.
Jaime:
(teasingly) 'Cause this doesn't make things weird at all. (Eddie punches him in the arm, he laughs and raises his hands defensively) I'm kidding, I'm kidding! (pause) Cards on the table? I have feelings for you, too. I think you know that. But, we've been down that road before, and it's a bad idea for... a lot of reasons.
Eddie:
I know.
Jaime:
It can really cloud your judgement, and... totally screw up a partnership.
Eddie:
Yeah- totally. I just, you know- I just wanted to be honest. (Jaime nods) Are we good?
Jaime:
Definitely.
[Eddie walks past him, pauses, then turns back and kisses him; Jaime returns the kiss and they embrace for a moment]
Eddie:
... Good talk. (swats him teasingly) See you tomorrow.
