Heart or Blood?
It was quiet in the Major Crimes squad room for once. The squad had no cases to work so the team were all at their desks just passing the time.
Sharon Raydor stood at the door to her office and watched the team as they talked quietly among themselves. After seven months of working together as a team everyone was finally starting to get along which was a relief because she just couldn't take the bickering anymore.
Sharon looked at her watch as she wondered what was keeping Rusty. It was getting late and Rusty should have made it to Major Crimes at least twenty minutes ago.
It was as that thought passed through her head that Sharon finally heard the door to the room open. Straightening up she looked towards the hallway and saw Rusty heading in her direction.
Grinning at her through his messy hair (which she really wanted to get cut but wasn't willing to fight about) he apologized and explained that there was a large crowd downstairs so it took him forever to get through them.
Sharon wondered what was happening downstairs but since it didn't really concern her she brushed the thought aside. Putting her hand on his shoulder she gave him small smile.
She gestured to Rusty to head into office to do his homework but before he could walk past her a voice called out his name from behind him.
Turning, Rusty was shocked to see a pretty blond woman heading towards him.
"Mom?"
Everyone in the squad turned around to look at the woman but she did not seem to care about them. Looking at Raydor's hand on Rusty's shoulder the woman glared at her as she came up to stand beside Rusty.
Looking from woman to woman as they squared off Rusty had a feeling that his life was about to get a bit more complicated.
