Celina pulls up next to him in her car.
CELINA: You sure you should be riding that?
She asks in a kind of joking yet serious way.
AARON: Yeah why not? It's fun.
CELINA: Right. But does your doctor know about it?
AARON: Celina it's fine. I'm being extra careful I swear.
CELINA: Okay if you say so.
She says doubtfully.
CELINA: How you feeling though? It's your first day back.
AARON: *inhales and exhales* Yeah I feel good I'm excited to be back.
CELINA: And the nightmares?
AARON: Well they're still there but hopefully that'll get better as we solve the case involving the shooting and as I keep going to therapy.
CELINA: Okay well just take it easy and be careful.
AARON: I will I promise.
As he smirks at her.
CELINA: Yeah you better.
She says as she smiles and walks away.
The crew is all in the station as Aaron walks in he gets a standing ovation. Everyone welcomes him back with smiles on their faces.
LUCY: Welcome back Aaron I am so glad to see you here and healthy.
AARON: Thank you I appreciate it.
TIM: Welcome back Officer Thorsen.
AARON: Thank you sir.
WADE: Thorsen let me talk to you in my office.
Aaron nods and walks away from Tim and Lucy to meet Sergeant Grey in his office.
WADE: Welcome back.
AARON: Thank you sir. Feels good to be back and I'm ready to get back out there to work towards being a detective again.
WADE: You're not going back on the streets till I know you're ready.
AARON: Sir respectfully I know I'm ready. I been going to therapy and everything.
WADE: Respectfully that's not your decision to make. Aaron I have been where you are. You almost died. So you will be on desk duty and start going to department mandated therapy twice a week until you're cleared.
AARON: But sir-
WADE: No buts. You're first appointment is tonight.
Sergeant Grey hands Aaron a card with the psychiatrists name on it.
