The Rookie one-shots

Back home

Your on patrol with Nyla as your phone starts ringing. It's your older brother

"Mind if I take this" you ask looking at Nyla

"Go for it. But once a call comes through you hang up." She says seriously

"Yes ma'am" you saying answering your phone

"Hello?"

"Hey y/n" he says sounding upset

"What's going on dude? How have you been?"

"Honestly, not great."

"Why? Didn't you it's move to New York?"

"Yeah that's a whole other story."

"Wanna tell me or?"

"How long do you got?"

"Probably not too long of a break. But I could call you after."

"Alright. But I do want you to know dad has been pretty sick lately. Especially with the Alzheimer's and the cancer came back."

"Um. Wow. What can I do? I'm closer to home than you  are. Do you want me to send money or something?"

"No no. I couldn't ask that if you again. I just wanted you to know in case anything goes wrong. But we will need to talk later to catch up. Ya know"

"Yeah of course I'll call you later?"

"Yeah bye."

"Bye"

You put your phone down and Nyla looks at you as you just stare out the windshield window.

"You ok l/n?" She asks genuinely concerned

"No. My dads really sick right now." You say still staring outside

"You're going to visit him right?" She asks

"He's is Maryland. I'm in LA. Not that close. Plus I can't take time off as a rookie." You say your entire mood changing into sadness and shock

"This is considered an emergency. Wouldn't hurt to ask Grey." She says pull the shop onto the road to go back

"You're right." The rest of the ride is quiet. Nyla giving you space to comprehend everything. Once you get back you walk into Grey's office and shut the door. Still shock and worry on your face.

"Officer l/n. What do you need?" You go to sit down when your phone starts ringing again. It's your brother

"I'm sorry I need to take this." You answer the phone and begin walking out.

"Dad died." Your brother says quickly causing you to freeze before the door. You don't know how to feel. Tear begging to well up in your eyes but you hold them back.

"I'll call you back" you say as you hang up, compose yourself and turn back to Grey.

He looks at you closely, "y/n? Are you okay?"

You shake your head not able to get worlds out.

"Who was that?" Grey asks as you both sit back down

You clear your throat and wipe your eyes. "Um it was my brother." You pause not wanting to continue. "He just told me my dad died." You say staring into the corner of the office.

"I'm sorry. I expect your going home to be with family?" He asks

"I'm a rookie though."you whisper quietly not want your voice to crack

"We can put your training on hold. I'm sure Nyla would understand." He says grabbing paper to fill out

"Ok yeah." You say beginning to stand up out of your seat
