Chapter 3

"It's complicated Eva. There are a lot of reasons why I think you're to young to date."

"But Dad look," She walked over to him pulling up a picture on her phone as she walked. Once beside him she handed over her phone, "His names Alexander. Does he look like he could hurt me?"

"Eva-"

"His father's some big-shot executive downtown and his mom stays at him. He has a younger sister and a younger brother." She continued, "And he asked me out. So can I go? Please can I go?" She begged.

Antonio looked at the screen, a selfie that Eva took of her and this boy. She looked happy, really happy and as he looked at her looking up at him he sighed, "Eva just because he looks like this it doesn't mean he won't hurt you."

"Dad!"

"Whining like that only tells me you're to immature to date."

She grabbed her phone back and stormed out of the room.

"Antonio why'd you do that?" Laura stared at him, a serious expression on her face. "She found out all of this information for you. You know the more you hold back he more she's going to rebel. Then you're really going to have a trouble teenaged girl on your hands."

"I know, I know," Antonio rubbed a hand over his face and sighed, "Can we talk about this later? I have work tomorrow."

It was a diversion to not talking about the issue, they both knew that; it had been a busy week though and for once Laura didn't fight him on it she just started at him, telling him she knew what he was doing.

The next day Antonio walked into the office carrying the whole weight of the problem on his shoulders, Halstead who was currently grounded took notice, "Uh-oh man. Trouble in paradise."

Walking to his desk Antonio stared at the younger man, "Really Halstead?" He quipped.

"Hey, I'm board."

Antonio figured he was right, plus it would be good to get things off his chest, "It's Eva. A boy asked her out and she's mad at me because I said no."

"Ooh, she's dating already?" Atwater, the newest member of Intelligence cringed. If Antonio remembered correctly he had a younger sister who was around Diego's age.

"Well she wants to," Antonio responded. "Laura's okay with it too."

"I scared off a lot of Lexi's boyfriends," Alvin Olinsky piped up from his semi-private office in the back of the room, "She never really forgave me," He added as he wheeled into the open area, "Eva's thirteen right?"

"Yeah, turns fourteen soon, she's in grade nine. I just I'm worried she'll get into things you know…"

"You can't stop her from dating forever Antonio," Erin Lindsay, the only female on the team reminded him.

"You sound like Laura."

"She's smart," Halstead commented for the first time.

"Yeah and she's right," Antonio rubbed his forehead.

Sharing a look with her friend Erin gestured for him to follow her into the break room, once there she closed the door.

"You know I didn't have the best childhood," She began, "Until Voight saved me anyway."

"Yeah," Antonio nodded, unsure about where this was heading.

"I was one of those girls you don't want Eva to be like,"

"Lindsay I didn't mean-"

"No, no it's okay, you're good father Antonio. Eva's a good kid though. She gets good marks right?"

"Yeah."

"So you meet the guy? What could go wrong?"

"I like him," He mumbled a response.

She laughed, "If you want I can talk to her, make her understand what not to get caught up in. She might listen if I tell her what happened to me."

"No, no I can't ask you to do that. I'll just invite my sister and her fiancé over on the same night he comes. That'll make it more intimidating without anyone knowing."

"You think your wife will go for that?"

"No you're probably right.

"Hey, you two," Voight knocked on the door and entered, "Lets get to work."

They both nodded and left the room.

Stuck upstairs with Burgrass and Roman while everyone else was out chasing leads made Halstead furious. Not only because it was him these guys were after but that others could be at risk too as they had recently found out that Oscar Bemenek was out to get all of the people involved in his arrest and trial.

"Hey Halstead," Sergeant Platt walked up the stairs, "I have job for you."

"Oh yeah," He stopped pacing and turned around shocked to see Antonio's daughter Eva and a boy (the boy that asked her out maybe) standing next to her.

"This is Dawson's daughter Eva and her friend. You can babysit them until he gets back," And with that she disapprared down the stairs.

"Hey," Eva moved some hair away from her face, "Hope this isn't a bad time."

It was but he wasn't about to tell her that. "No, no your Dad's out right now like the Sergeant said. Everything alright?"

"Oh yeah, I just wanted him to meet someone."

"Ah," Halstead knew this must be the boy, "My names Detective Halstead. I work with Eva's father," He introduced himself to the boy.

"Hi Sir," The boy shook his hand, "My names Alexander."

"Well Alexander want me to show you the interagaton room."

Eva's eyes went wide and she stated at Halstead. She silently pleaded with him not to do anything. He obliged but only because he knew that Antonio would wring his neck out if he found out, still he knew Antonio would be the first one to interrogate this boy the minute he got back.

Eva changed the subject, "So Alex this is Burgress," She waved to the uniformed officer.

"Hi Miss," Alexander smiled.

"Hi. This is my Partner Officer Roman."

"So I want…" Sergeant Voight's voice echoed off the walls and stopped as he saw the two young teenagers in Intelligence.

"Eva," Antonio rushed past his boss and to his daughter "What are you doing here?"

"Well Alex has a hockey game tonight and I was wondering if I could go. Instead of texting you I figured I'd bring him here so you could meet him," She looked up at him, almost pleadingly.

"Eva I'm really busy right now."

"But Dad-"

"Later," He stared at her. "Now I don't want you up here," He ushered her and Alex out of the unit and back down the stairs where he finally turned and looked at the boy Eva liked.

"I'm Eva's father Detective Antonio Dawson," He told the boy.

"It's very nice to meet you Sir. My names Alexander Benet."

"Well tis nice to meet you Alex.

"So Dad after the game Alex is having a party at his house. Can I go?"

"A party?"

"My parents are going or be there Sir, along with my younger siblings," Alex quickly explained, "My parents are also inviting parents to come and meet them and have drinks in the kitchen. It's just going to be us having pizza and hanging-out maybe watch a movie. No illegal things and my parents are ending it at eleven."

Antonio was almost impressed. The boy had covered everything he was going to ask. He was starting to think he as to good to be true, "Well I'm working tonight but I'll tell my wife that maybe she can come over early to pick Eva up, bring her younger brother."

"I'll tell my parents," Alex handed over a piece of paper, "Before I forget Sir my parents told me to give you this. It has my address, home phone number, my mom's cell and my dad's work information and cell phone number."

"Thank you," Antonio pocked the information.

"So Dad can I go?"

"If your mother's okay with it then yes."

"Yay!" She squealed and hugged him, "I love you."

"I love you too Eva," He kissed the top of her head, "And Alex tell your parents we should all meet for dinner soon."

"I will Sir."

"Bye Dad, see you tomorrow," Eva gave her father another hug before leaving the station with Alex.

"Bye," Antonio called after her; the back of his mind still toying with the idea that Alex was too good to be true.
