Three days after your incident, you were at the 21st District delivering their weekly coffee ground and one large box of assorted pastries and cakes for the Intelligence unit, and a slice of strawberry shortcake for Sargeant Trudy Platt. You usually bring or send a something over for the woman whenever deliveries are made to the  presinct.

"Hey, Y/N, nice to see you running about. How's the shoulder?" Sgt. Platt asked you as you and Brandon entered the station. You had given her a smile and replied, "I'm doing fine, Sargeant. Doc said I just need to take it easy for a couple of days." She nodded and buzzed the both of you up.

Upstairs, you followed Brandon into the break room as you both set ups the coffee machine and placed the box of goodies on the table. You didn't know if anyone was in already since the squad room was empty when you and Brandon arrived. You told Brandon to go ahead since he had more deliveries to take care of and you needed to talk to Voight regarding the shooting incident that you and your shop was involved in.

You were just making sure that the coffee was on keep warm when the door opened and Voight and Halstead walked in. They were both surprised to see you but then you saw them glance at the coffee machine and then at the food, both men smile.

"Good morning!" You greeted them as you tried to reach for coffee mugs but Voight grabbed them instead and poured coffee for himself and Halstead. "Morning Y/N, you're early today." Voight said to as Jay greeted you as well but went out right after he got a plate full of pastries. "Uhm, I rode with Brandon going here since he had more deliveries this morning than usual. I needed to talk to you about what happened at my shop?" You told him and he nodded. "Yeah, I needed to talk to you about that also. Let's go to my office." Voight told you and you followed.

Walking to Voight's office, you greeted the others who have just arrived as they headed to the break room, in need of food and coffee. "Y/N, the shooting incident that happened at your shop was a driveby. You weren't the target but someone else was. Someone from a rival gang member was walking alongside of your shop which is by the way part of their territory so the gang started shooting at the rival gang member. Anyways, I talked to my contacts, told them that you're under my protection so nobody should be bothering you or your shop anymore but if they do, just give me a call." Voight told you and you smiled greatfully at him. "Thanks Sargeant, that means a lot." You told Voight as you exited his office. Then you stopped and asked no one in particular, "Anyone of you want anything in particular for lunch? I'm heading back to my shop." You asked the team who smiled all smiled at the thought of your food. You saw Voight shake his head so you knew he had no requests. Hailey Upton and Kim Burgess smiled but also shook their heads so you turned to look at the guys. Antonio Dawson shook his head but did ask for some of your cinnamon rolls which you agreed to. Jay Halstead and Kevin Atwater asked for some both asked for pigs in a blanket and donuts which you also acknowledged. You then turned your attention to Adam Ruzek who was reading one of your menus. You knew he wanted something so you waited patiently for him to answer. The rest of the team also waited for what he was gonna say, expecting for him to request as much food as he is allowed.
"Ooh, I wanna try your chicken adobo. I've only tasted the one Mills made before." He said and you nodded, not knowing who Mills was which made Adam remember that you didn't know who Peter Mills was. "Oh Mills used to work at 51. One hell of a cook that guy." Ruzek told you and you just nodded. "Would you like some rice with your chicken adobo?" You asked him and he nodded. After getting their orders, you bid them goodbye and left.

Back at your shop, you immediately noted down the special orders of Intelligence and gave it to Jessica who was already in the process of making the food for some of the firehouses that you delivered to daily. The boys helped Jessica in cooking while you handled the customers that came into the shop for take-out and dine-in. You were fixing an order for one of the customers when the bell rang signaling a new customer and you looked up to greet them. You saw Truck 81's Captain Matt Casey.
"Hey Matt, what can I get for you?" You said to Casey as he went to the counter as the one before him left.
"Uhh, yeah. Do you guys have any big cakes on hand? We have some guests at the firehouse and just found out that it's of the kids birthday and wanted to get a cake for the kid." He replied and you smiled.
"Well, you're in luck. Jess just finished a few cakes. They're cooling at the moment but if you wait a few minutes, we can have them decorated. Is the kid a girl or a boy?" You asked him and he smiled.
"Thanks Y/N, you're the best! Oh and its a boy named Jack, said he wanted to be a firefighter when he grows up." Casey told you as Jess brings out a cake to you and several other tools and decorations. "Thanks Jess, have you finished cooking the orders? It's almost lunch time so we need to deliver those food soon." You asked your friend and employee. "Yeah, the boy and I are packing the food and pastries up. Then the boys will be out doing deliveries in 10mins." Jess told you before going back into the kitchen.
"Well Captain, would you like to help me decorate the cake for a future firefighter?" You asked Casey and he smiled. You had instructed him to wash his hands and then to roll out some fondant. He did as instructed and you smiled as you prepared the tools and decorations you will be putting on the cake.
