One

She walks into the precinct, and her body buzzes as she realizes that this is her new home. She glances towards Captain Montgomery's office and accidentally catches his eye, where he gives her an affirmative nod.

She returns the nod with a small smile and heads to her desk, feeling her breath hitch when she sees the name plate with "Det. Beckett" on it.

She pulls on her ponytail, tightening it to make sure it doesn't fall out, before sitting down at her desk. She smiles as she pulls out the elephants her mom had had on her desk out of her bag and sets them in front of her, setting them towards the rear, and she leans back in her seat, reveling in the moment.

The elevator pings and she turns around to see the other two men she met last week, the two whose team she will be apart of.

"Hey, Beckett!" Ackerman exclaims over the buzz of the floor, and Kate smiles.

"Hey, guys." She responds with a smile, spinning her chair towards them, her hair tickling in between her shoulder blades.

"First day as detective," Ackerman says as he and Vega stop at her desk. "You excited?"

Kate rolled her eyes. "It's just another day." Both looked at each other and then back at Kate.

"Whatever you say, Beckett," Ackerman said, walking back to his desk with Vega following behind him.

They all sit at their desks doing paperwork, when Ackerman's phone goes off.

"Ackerman," He answers. Beckett and Vega watch as Ackerman scribbles down something, then he looks up at them as he hangs up.

"Body in a warehouse on 12th." They nod, grabbing their jackets for the cold winter day out and Beckett smiles as she realizes that yes, these guys are her team, and this is real, and she's finally made detective.

"Beckett, you coming?" Ackerman yells from the elevator doors.

"Right behind you," she calls, pulling up her jacket and rushing after them.

They ride down to the ground floor, Ackerman and Vega turning back to look at her.

"So Beckett," Ackerman starts, leaning against the back of the elevator. "How long you been on the force?"

She glances down at the elevator floor, knowing that as soon as she says how long, they'll know she'll be NYPD's youngest to make detective before some woman named Victoria Gates.

"Um...17 months."

"17 months?!" Vega exclaims. "And you're already a detective?! How much cock did you have to suck to jump rank that fast?!" Kate has to swallow down the rage that builds up inside her and Ackerman swats at Vega, watching as Beckett balls her hands into fists.

"She probably worked a hell of a lot harder than you Vega. Now why don't you shut your trap." The elevator dings and Vega storms out, leaving Beckett and Ackerman to trail behind him.

"Don't worry about him," Ackerman says, gesturing towards Vega who was climbing into the driver seat of a cruiser. "He'll be leaving soon."

Beckett looks up at him. "And how do you know that?"

Ackerman looks down at her. "Because if he gets one more complaint filed against him he says he's going to the Narcotics division at the 32nd."

"And what makes you think he's gonna get another complaint?"

"Explain to me how you got detective?" Beckett rolls her eyes.

"He's that bad?" She asks as they climb into a different cruiser.

"Let's say that he's done it with enough suspects that he's gotten complaints for." Beckett let out a low whistle and Ackerman nods.

"Yep."

So this has already been posted on Tumblr but I thought I would post it on here as well because I'm actually happy with this.
