Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Law and Order SVU characters, but I do own Rebecca Turner and all the other characters created.
Warning: There are eating disorder material in this fanfic. Please read with caution.
Author's Note: There might be a sequel to this. There might even be a Rebecca Turner Series, but then again, I'm not sure. I'm going out of the Law and Order SVU spectrum very soon. So read, and keep your eyes open for a sequel.
Read and Enjoy :)

She has never been in New York City before, let alone live there. Once she unpacked most of her things, she started walking to the place where she was going to work.
Rebecca Turner never saw a day like this one; it was actually snowing in May. She walked up the steps to the Precinct and opened the door. Rebecca has never been as nervous in her life as she walked down the wall and entered the elevator. She was going to be a Special Victims Unit detective in Manhattan, and she had no idea what to expect.
She got off the elevator and walked a few steps forward. Before she entered the squad room, Rebecca watched everyone in that room move around. She felt out of place, and she knew that she was going to feel that way at first.
She walked into the squad room. That's when she felt really out of place as she walked through the other people working on a big case and walked to the captain's office. She knocked on his door a few times before she heard him say "Come in". She opened the door and slowly walked in.
"Hi, I'm here for my first day..."
"You must be Rebecca Turner" Captain Cragen said as he got up from his desk and shook her hand "We are very glad to have you here."
"Thank you, sir."
"Before I introduce you to the rest of the team and your partner, I must give you so bad news. Because of the big case, you're stuck on desk duty to help us with the other cases."
"That's fine with me" Rebecca said "I think that's where I should start anyways."
"That has to be the first time I heard that. Come on; you need to meet the rest of the team."
Captain Cragen walked out of his office while Rebecca followed him to the group of people there. She was nervous about meeting these new people. This new job was completely different from what she was used to; Rebecca was used to pulling people over for speeding and car chases. Her boss thought that she needed something new and that Rebecca was good enough for the job, but Rebecca was unsure.
"I'd like to meet our new detective on the squad" the captain said as he waved Rebecca over. She walked over and stood next to the captain "This is Rebecca Turner. Rebecca, meet Olivia, Elliot, Munch and Fin."
"Should I be worried that I'm losing this job because of this case?" Fin asked.
"Actually Fin, she's your new partner since Munch is being promoted."
"Nice to meet you" Fin said as they shook hands "I'm sure we'll get along as partners...you look like a charming woman."
"Thank You" Rebecca said as she blushed. She rarely got compliments.
"Well, the four of you look really busy" the captain said.
"Believe me, we are" Elliot said "The defensive is getting into our personal lives and are making us look bad.""Casey's meeting us here in a few minutes to see what she can do" Olivia said.
"Oh geez, I forgot! Rebecca, Casey is our ADA" the captain said.
"What's an ADA?" Rebecca asked, knowing that it was a stupid question
"Assistant District Attorney"
The group turned around to see Casey standing next to Munch.
"Where the hell did you come from?" Munch asked.
"Well, some of us are faster than others."
"Casey, this is Rebecca Turner" the captain said "She's the new detective in the group."
"Ah, you're the one that I'm going to have to talk to about the paperwork" Casey said as she reached out for a handshake "Nice to meet you."
"Well, I'm going to show Rebecca the place and then show her to her desk."
"Right" Rebecca said "Nice to meet all of you."
Rebecca followed the captain as he showed her the room with the bed. The group looked at each.
"She seems really quiet" Casey commented.
"Unlike you! You were nosy and in everyone's busy" Olivia said chuckling.
"Oh, and we hated you."
"Thanks" Casey said sarcastically "Can we talk about the case now?"
"All right, fine. Let's get down to business" Elliot said.
Rebecca was one of the few detectives that were still in the squad room late at night. She started the paperwork hours before, but there was too much to catch up to on her first day. She had to ask one of the four detectives about how to complete the paperwork. For Rebecca, it was embarrassing to ask, but the detectives didn't mind.
"Hey"
Rebecca turned around to see Fin walking towards her desk with a paper brown bag. He sat down at his desk, which was right next to hers. Fin reached his arm towards her with the bag in his hand.
"I thought you were hungry after all that paperwork" Fin said.
"Thanks Fin" Rebecca said as she grabbed the bag from him. She opened it up to see Chinese food. Even though she wasn't into Chinese food, she took it out and started eating it. Fin started laughing as Rebecca started eating her food. Rebecca stopped eating and looked at her partner.
"What are you laughing at?" she asked.
"You"
"Why?"
"Because you have the most interesting look on your face eating that" Fin chuckled "I'm guessing that you don't like Chinese food."
"I don't, but I appreciate the offer and I'll finish eating it anyways."
There was a few minutes of silence as Fin was typing on his computer on his desk while Rebecca finished eating her supper. When she threw the remaining trash on her desk, she wanted to converse.
"So what is that case that the rest of you are working on?" Rebecca asked.
"It has to do with this man that I know."
"How do you know him?"
"He was my ex-wife's nephew."
"What's his crime?"
"He shot a woman and a kid" Fin said "What a freaking disaster."
"I'm surprised that you're not supporting him or anything."
"I'm not. He's just a little punk making me look bad" Fin snapped "And it's costing my job at this point. I never liked him, and I never will."
When Fin said his last statement, Rebecca thought that her new partner was angry at her, so she didn't want to start a fight. She just nodded.
"I'm sorry" she said quietly as she looked back at her paperwork. That's when Fin realized that he sounded harsh.
"No, I am. I shouldn't be raising my temper at someone I hardly know."
"It's fine, don't worry about it" Rebecca said.
"Do you like your name Rebecca?"
"Not really, but you can call me Becky instead"
"Fin and Becky" Fin said as he leaned back in his chair "That has a nice ring to it."
