"Alright people. This is detective Y/LN. She just transferred from Narcotics and is going to be with us until..."

The seated intelligence knew what he wanted to say. She's a new member of the team until she dies or leaves. Standard stuff.

As you stood there in front of them your mind raced. You thought you might get bigger reactions from them. It's not everyday someone from Narcotics manages to steal a spot at the finest unit in the Chicago police department.

You looked at every pair of eyes in the room and not one gave you the comfort you needed. And then your eyes landed on someone who was a big senior in your career path.

You recognized him. Like who wouldn't? Alvin Olinsky, a senior detective that's been doing this since you were in your diapers. He's also Hank Voight's best friend and colleague.

"Y/LN the table's right there. Make yourself at home." He said and strolled back into the comfort of his office.

Well there's no point in chasing after him, you thought and held the carton box tighter.

"Your desk is here." Olinsky made sure to extend his hand towards your desk in case you were dumb and couldn't find it. He wasn't that far off - your nerves were eating you alive.

"Thanks," You mutter and place the box on the clean surface. Glancing at the box that's filled with what not one more time you realize just how quickly clutter is going to attack your desk.

"Hi I'm Ruzek. But you can call me Adam." His voice is clear as day. This guy is flirting with you by just stating his name. Not knowing how to react to his flirty voice you shyly extend your hand and contemplate your next move.

But then Alvin passes by. With a mug of coffee is his right hand he uses his free one to motion you to stop and not get involved with Ruzek. It's simple really - a palm by the neck and rapid movements that just scream don't do it.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Y/N Y/LN." There's a knowing dazzle in Adam's eyes. It's like he knows why you haven't returned his flirt.

After he leaves you be you note that he's basically the only one interested in getting to know you. A latino sits at his desk, looking regal and dangerous - that's detective Dawson. You know him. A basical legend within his age group. He doesn't look angry or anything, you quickly realize that that's basically his swag. It's a part of him.

But then another dude that just across from you. He just looks angry. No angry looking swag - someone made the dude angry angry.

Then you look at Kevin who you already knew before the transfer. Being the great friend that he is he winks and gives you a thumbs up.

Everyone seems to be pretty possesive over their desks. You can almost see the red alarms on their desks. Having your own desk is a pretty big deal I guess.

You don't even try to excuse yourself as you stroll towards the break room. If Olinsky is going to be the only one that likes you then so be it. You're going to be his best friend.

"I'm sorry they're like that," With your back in front of him you turn around while you wait for your coffee. "It's embarrassing."

"Are they always like that?" You ask. You really don't want to be an outsider.

"They'll warm up to you don't worry. They just need some time."

"I came here because I was told I deserved the spot." You start reciting the day you remember like it was yesterday. "I don't care about who was here before me or what that person did. I'm here to to my job and not mess it up."

Of course you heard many rumours about what happened to the intelligence but you never pryed. It wasn't your place to do so.

"They're looking at me like I'm the one that hurt them. They won't even give me a damn chance to prove myself."

Alvin Olinsky sat there and listened. He knew where you were coming from. He knows how strong and determined you are. You were perfect for this spot and that's why he put in a good word for you.

Without another word he stood up and motioned you to follow him with his hand. Your coffee became a forgotten thing after you started waking next to him.

Now you're back in front of them all. But with a different air around you. "As you already know. This is detective Y/LN. One of the best the CPD has to offer.

I'm only saying this once. Stop acting like brats and cut her some slack."

He spoke with authority. He maybe doesn't speak up as much as some do but when he does he talks with a voice that says experience. He was on the field more than any of them combined and he knew that friendship and trust were the most important and needed things within an unit. Especially an unit like this one.

If they continued to picture you as Erin someday and somewhere you will get hurt because of that. Shot in the leg that kind of hurt.

He didn't go on with his words but what he said was already enough. The next thing you knew Jay Halstead was in front of you with his hand extended towards you.

"I'm Jay. Welcome to the family."
