***Mark's POV***

I was sitting at my desk doing paperwork when Kerry opened the door "What is it Kerry," I asked

"We have someone new joining the station," She stated with a huge smile on her face "Now come on," She added gesturing me to follow her

I stood up and followed her to our seats. I sat down next to her as I watched everyone else in the station come in and sit-down next thing, I knew all the seats were full. I watched as Fisk walked onto the stage and stated, "Hello everyone and I wanted you all to meet new Homicide Detective Riley Stanheight." I watched as a beautiful woman walked onto the stage. "Hello everyone, I hope that it is a pleasure to meet and get to know you all," she said with a small smile on her face. I was still mesmerized by her as I watched the beautiful woman walk off stage.

***Riley POV***

I'm so scared to see what they think about me I thought "Well you can go around and talk to people in the station," Fisk said I walked off towards a woman. Once I got over to her, she said happily, "Hello ma'am I'm Allison, Allison Kerry." she stuck her hand out for me to shake. I grabbed it with an awkward smile on my face and shook her hand lightly. I watched a small grin wash over her face as I got startled by a small tap on my shoulder I quickly turned around and looked at the man standing behind me "Hello Detective Stanheight I'm Officer Daniel Rigg," He said as he stuck out his hand, I took it and we shook hands "Nice to meet you Officer Rigg," I said with a small smile as I walked off towards another man. Once I stood in front of him, I stuck my hand out and asked, "Hello Sir, what's your name?" The man had a friendly smile on his face as he said, "I'm detective Matthews, Erik Matthews." he shook my hand then pointed over to a man that was standing on the other side of the room talking to Fisk.

***Mark's POV***

"That new girl is your partner. I know she might be... different but she will be a huge help to you," Fisk sighed What's wrong with her I thought as I watched Fisk walk away. I turned my head when I heard the sound of footsteps. It was detective Stanheight "Hello Detective Stanheight." I said, putting my hand out for her to shake "Hello sir" She said shaking my hand "I'm Detective Hoffman and I'm your partner in homicide," I said trying not to be awkward she nodded with a friendly smile on her face. Fisk came back over and sighed, "Come with me Stanheight." her smile quickly faded as she followed him to his office.

***Riley's POV***

I followed Fisk to his office. He unlocked the door, and I sat in a chair across from him. "It's not going to get in the way is it," He asked.

"What's not going to get in the way sir," I asked.

"Your ADHD," He sighed.

I shook my head "No sir."

"Good well since we can't immediately put you on a case how about you go sit with Hoffman for the day," he said.

I said, "That's good with me sir."

I stood up and walked out of his office. I slowly walked down the empty corridor in search of Hoffman's office "Stanheight," I heard a voice from behind me say I turned to see it was Hoffman "Oh hey I was just looking for you," I said awkwardly he then gestured for me to follow him, so I followed him, and he took us to his office. He opened the door "Come in," He said I walked in after him and shut the door and I sat in the chair across from him "Oh uhm... Hoffman," I said.

"Yea what is it," He asked.

I sighed, "You can call me Riley if you want."

"Oh okay," he said with a sweet smile on his face.

The thing is though I didn't want anyone calling me Riley I didn't feel like the Riley I was meant to be. I looked down at my leg as it quickly shook. I slowly blinked and reached into my pocket and pulled out a picture of me, my younger brother, and my younger sister. "Who are they," Hoffman asked. I looked up at him and said, "It's me and my younger siblings." I smiled as I looked at our faces in the picture. "Well, what are their names," Hoffman asked. I turned and pointed at the picture, "Well the one on the right is me, the one in the middle is my younger brother Adam, and the one on the left is my little sister Amanda." He smiled sweetly and said, "I have a sister too. Her name is Angela, Angela Hoffman." He turned in his chair and pointed to a picture sitting on a shelf. "That's her," he said.

"She's beautiful," I said.

"I know," he laughed.

I sat the picture down in front of me when I felt my pocket vibrate. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and it was Adam "Sorry I gotta take this," I said standing up and walking to the door. Once I was back in the hall I leaned up against the wall "Hello," Adam's said.

I said, "Hi Adam."

"Uhm... I was wondering if you wanted to come over and hang out with me and Amanda," Adam asked.

"Sure, I'll come can I bring my cat," I asked.

"Yes, you can bring Pasta," he said I could almost hear his smile in his voice.

I laughed, "Okay well I love you bye."

"Love ya!" Adam exclaimed before hanging up.

***Mark's POV***

I watched as Riley came back in with a huge smile on her face, I wonder who it was I thought as I got back to my paperwork. It was silent for a while until Riley asked," Can I have one of those sticky notes?" I nodded as I handed her a sticky note What is she going to do with that I wondered I looked back at my paper, but I couldn't help but keep glancing up to see what she was up to "Do you want it," She asked.

I nodded, "Yeah sure."

I could finally see what she did with the sticky note she handed it to me, and I took a good look at it. The sticky note was full top to bottom of silly little doodles. I smiled as I stuck it to my desk.

***Riley's POV***

I watched a smile wash over Hoffman's face as he stuck the sticky note with my silly doodles on it to his desk. I looked down at my watch and a small sighed escaped my lips "Waiting for someone," Hoffman asked.

I shook my head, "No... Just want to go see my brother and sister."

"That's nice," Hoffman said.

I glanced down at my watch again 10:00... 10:00 I kept thinking to myself. I grabbed the picture of me and my siblings and stuffed it into my pocket. I looked down at my watch again and it said 9:58. "Do you need me to drive you," Hoffman asked.

I shook my head, "No thanks I'll walk, I need to take my cat there anyway."

He nodded and got back to his work.

I looked down at my watch. It was now 10:00 so I stood up and waved goodbye to Hoffman and walked out the door.
