Trouble 🌀 EDITING

Im important

I walk up the steps behind Kevin. I don't know why I was nervous, this is like a second home. I quietly walk into the room looking around like I hadn't been here in forever. I suppose I haven't. I went from coming everyday to avoiding this place like the plague. Last time I was here was the day Trudy brought me and dad had to practically force me upstairs. "Ley" dad gasped out I nervously smile walking past him and straight to my dad "hey dad" "you alright kiddo" he asks getting up wrapping his arm around me pulling me close "I'm good" I knew he knew I wasn't but he also knew I wouldn't talk especially here. He lets me go and I walk into hanks office laying on the couch quiet frantically "make yourself at home" Hank said I did have to look up I could hear the humour in his voice. "My life is so annoying" "want to talk" "no I talked to kev who would of thought a bunch of cops would end up being my therapist" I look over to see him smirking "what can I say we are good listeners" "oh so you don't hear what you want to hear" I mock I hear laughter from outside making me remember the door was open and they could hear us. I sit up looking through the blinds seeing Adam and Kevin laughing, dad smirking "that to" Hank said I stand up "and now I'm bored" I frown Hank stands up "well Kim and your dad are about to interrogate someone want to watch with me" I nod smiling.

I watch through the two way "it's more fun when you are in there" I moan out I hear laughter making me jump back I turn seeing Adam standing there. I don't notice I step back until I see him frown. "I'm going to sit in your office" I say dashing away. I know I'm being harsh but I didn't know how to react, how to feel. I only ever seen Hank so rough and harsh, even then I never seen him do it to a random person on the street just by accident one day when I walk into the garage. I joke about it but I have seen it once and I don't know if I could actually watch it all. I take a deep breath sitting down on the couch. Tears building in my eyes I feel like I'm always on the brink of crying these days. Maybe I broke along time ago and it was finally catching up with me.

I hear the door close making me instantly look up "I come in peace" Adam said holding his hands up weakly smiling I weakly smile back. "I don't know how Hank will feel about you stealing his office" "just add that to my list of screw ups...I'm sorry" "I'm not scared of you I know you think I am but I'm not" he smiles "I was scared about the situation yeah I urm I had never seen anything like that" he carefully nervously sat down beside me "I have accidentally seen Hank beating someone in the cage for like half a second and I promise I'm not living under some rock I have been to med because one of you more times than I can blink" "you dad does love getting hurt" I nod the tears falling from my eyes "he does" I sigh "I had never seen it in person you guys do it I was scared for you that you would get hurt then I heard Trudy talk about the case so I got scared I would loose you kev told me Hank fixed that up...I know you had been drinking I made sure they knew it wasn't around me but then I started to second guess myself" I take a deep breath trying to calm myself "I started to wonder if all these red flags that I had basically been trained see where even there or if it was just my fear from the situation" he sighs rubbing his face "I'm sorry I left with Trudy but I couldn't" I shake my head "I didn't feel safe I could smell the alcohol and seeing you do that to him even if he wasn't a good guy" "hey calm down it's ok" I sigh he hesitantly puts his hand on my shoulder "I did miss you but I didn't know how to be around you...I didn't know what how to even process any of it. I didn't feel safe and it's basically ingrained into me that if I don't feel safe I call someone to come get me" he sighs I look at him smiling. "I did feel very lost without my Addy though" he laughs making me smile. He goes to speak but doesn't get to say anything because the door opens, we both look over startled to see Hank standing there. "Is everything ok or do we have to throw him in the cage" he asks me Adam gasps. I had heard stories of the about what happens in the cage, I had also see a bit. I look at Adam and smirk, he shakes his head knowing full well my dad and Hank won't hold back. "I think his right for the moment" Adam sighs in relief "oh thank god I thought you were going to sell me out for a minute" "I considered it" "i could all tell" "next time you steal my office Ruzek you will be on patrol" I laugh watching Hank go and sit behind his desk. "You two good now" I nod Adam watching me carefully "we're working on it" I say shrugging "you make everyone's favourite Halstead sad and we will take you to the silos" I laugh at the look of horror on his face "I would be upset that I'm not everyone's Halstead if it wasn't my daughter" my dad remarks from his desk "do we talk loudly in here or are your walls just none existent" I remark hearing laughter from the bullpen. "I think it's a bit of both you are loud Frank" I smile hearing the name I had missed being called Frank, as weird as that is. Maybe I was going to be ok, maybe everything was fixing itself.
