Best Friend To The Very End

A Power Move

'Busy Day?' Kelly asked Katherine as she walked through the door
'Mental, You?' She asked as she put her bag on the table
'The usual' He replied walking over to the table
'Where's Han?'
'In her room, doing homework. I hope'
'She's not like us when we were 15'
'You sure?' Kelly laughed as he got something out of the oven
'I hope you haven't fixed her window yet'
'Not yet, and maybe not ever now that I think about it'
'Hannah dinners ready' Katherine called out
'Yep' Hannah replied from her room
'Any interesting cases yet?' Kelly asked
'I don't know, all I've been doing is paperwork'
'Gotta start somewhere'
'Yeah, I should just be thankful I got the job I guess'
'What is she doing in her room' Kelly questioned 'Hannah!'
'Yep, I'm coming' She said walking out of her room
'Dinners ready' Kelly replied
'Yeah I heard you the first time' Hannah replied
'What were you doing in your room' Katherine asked
'Reading up on something'
'Homework?' Kelly questioned
'Nope'
'Well, what was it?' Katherine questioned
'Well, seeing we're back in Chicago and I'm 15 I was thinking-'
'No, you are not getting your learners until your 16' Said Kelly
'Why not?' Hannah questioned
'You know how many car accidents I've seen with learners and probationary drivers'
'Yeah but I won't be another statistic, I'm not a bad driver plus I've got you and mum to teach me'
'It's not you driving that is the problem it's the other people on the roads' Kelly explained
'So, I don't care if you make me drive up and down our street for the first few times'
'Like the first month?'
'First three months, I don't care'
'I'm not driving with you until you've had at least 3 lessons' Katherine added
'And you still call yourself a good driver'
'OK, I feel that I would be an OK driver'
'Have you ever driven a car?'
'Yeah' Hannah replied
'Apart from when you were with me, on the bush trails'
'No'
'So you've never driven on the road?'
Hannah sighed 'Kinda hard when we left Phoenix before I was 15 and a half. But isn't that the point of being a learner'
'Well think about it' Kelly replied
'So that's a no' Said Hannah
'I said we'll think about it, now finish your dinner'
Hannah looked at her mom
'Do what your dad says Han'
Hannah rolled her eyes and ate her dinner

'Are we gonna consider it?' Katherine asked Kelly as they did the dishes
'I guess we have to' Kelly replied
'I'm worried too, but our baby is growing up'
'Yeah, I'll figure something out and let her know tomorrow'
'Like what?'
'Something Herrmann did with Lee Henry'
'Parenting advice from Herrmann, there's only one way that can end.'

'What are we doing at the 21st?' Hannah questioned
'You want to learn to drive?' Kelly questioned
'Yeah, but aren't we supposed to go the DMV?'
'Yeah, but there's another test you have to pass first'
'Like what?'
'You'll see, come on'
Hannah and Kelly walked inside to the 21st.
'Morning Lieutenant' Said Trudy as Hannah and Kelly walked through the door.
'Morning, Is Lindsay around?' Kelly questioned.
'Upstairs, I'll buzz you guys up'
'Are you gonna make her talk to me about traffic accidents? Because you've already done that at home and the firehouse' Hannah questioned
'No, now stop guessing' Kelly said as they walked up the stairs
'Why, cause I've already guessed it?' Hannah teased
'Guessed what?' Erin questioned as she went up to Kelly and Hannah
'Someones trying to figure out what we're doing here' Kelly explained
'Hasn't he told you?' Erin questioned
'You do know my dad right?' Hannah questioned
'OK, I'll put you out if your misery then' Said Kelly, 'You are doing a field test'
'What?' Hannah questioned 'I'm just going for my learners, not applying to be a cop'
'This is a test to determine if you can get your permit' Kelly explained
'Who am I driving with then?'
'Me if you want' Erin offered
'Ahhh' Hannah stammered
'Or you can pick someone else'
'Olinsky' Hannah said, knowing he'd be the safest option
'Not me, Lexi was bad enough'
Hannah death stared at him, 'Thanks' She replied
'Ruzek?'
'Pick someone who can actually drive' Voight added
'Hey, I can drive' Ruzek said, hurt
'Pick someone quick or its Voight' Kelly said
'Uhhhh'
'3, 2 -'
'Jay' Hannah blurted out at the last minute 'Shit, should have just kept my mouth shut' Hannah said to herself putting her head in her hands after she finally realised what she said
Jay began to quietly laugh to himself
'It's your funeral' Kelly said to his daughter
'Come on then, try not to get us killed' Jay said as he got his car keys
Hannah looked at her dad 'Go on then, try not to kill Jay'
Hannah smiled and followed after Jay
