Hi Everyone! I am so sorry to have been gone so long and leave you all hanging without a new chapter but school started and I started coaching for the 1st time. So life has been crazy! I really wanted Chapter 3 up before the new season started but that didn't happen so remember for now in this story Erin is not back to work just yet. She will be coming back I promise. I really like the idea of Linstead and Bruzek being best friends and working in IU together. So that is what I am planning in the endgame here. Hope you enjoy and remember this is only my 1st Fanfic and the 3 chapter I have ever written.
Disclaimer: I do not own CPD, CFD, or CMD. I am just a huge fan of the work that Dick Wolf and the others do with this show.
Chapter 3
As Kim was preparing to go in undercover on the possible drug bust with Halstead, Erin Lindsay was preparing to go into the same club but for reasons much different than Kim. Erin was on her way to meet Landon the current guy she was having a relationship with if you could call it that, but he kept her and Bunny supplied with drugs that he was helping to deal out of this very club. Erin was on her way to meet him in order to score. She had been ignoring calls from her former co-workers, who she guessed were now also her former friends for weeks now. Being more then slightly hungover from the bender she just came down from Erin failed to notice the unmarked car in which Roman was sitting to watch the coming and goings at the club. While Erin didn't see Sean he certainly saw her and knew he had to alert the team. If Erin was caught up in this drug ring somehow then things were about to get much worse. Both because he knew it meant Erin was both in danger and in over her head but also because she could ID Kim and Jay, therefore putting their lives at risk as well. Sean knew he had to call Voight but really didn't enjoy the thought of making this call.
Back at the Station
Adam walked into the breakroom to calm down, while he never liked for Kim to be undercover, now that he knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her and they were engaged the thought of her being in serious danger was tearing him apart. He knew that Jay would do his best to make sure that Kim was safe, just like he knew they would hear everything that was going on in that club but he didn't like it. After finding out all their other victims had not just died of drug over doses but had also been sexually assaulted Adam felt sick about sending in Kim. The last time she had been in a situation similar to this at least Nadia had been here to go in with her and it was a good thing too because in the end Nadia had to do drugs to keep them both safe. Adam didn't want Kim in that position. After talking to the sister of the 3rd victim it seemed like this Andrew guy or one of his underlings was targeting girls who were young, pretty, who weren't drug users, girls with a small frame, and he liked that they looked like the girl next door. It all reminded him way to much of Kim. Al walked in and took in Adam's appearance, "Kid, you okay?" Al asked Adam. Adam looked up at the man who was his friend, and mentor "Yeah, Al it's just the more we find out about this creep the less I like the idea of Kim walking into that club tonight as bait." "I mean do you get that we are using my fiancée as the bait to possibly be drugged or buy drugs from a dealer, so we can catch him." Al looked at Adam and responded to what the younger man had just said, "Adam, what do you know that the rest of us don't?" "I get that you have been on edge since Kim was shot, then again after the incident she and Roman were involved in at the Warehouse, but this feels different." Adam thought back to this morning when he was getting a new razor from under the sink, he noticed a box that had not been there 3 mere days ago, a box that equally set him on edge and filled him with joy. How could he tell Al what he found, what he knew Kim must suspect if she hadn't even told him yet. " Al let me find Kim and give me about 10 minutes with her and then maybe I can tell you what I know that you don't." Adam walked out of the room and down the stairs to Mouse's office where Jay and Kim were both being fitted with the smallest wires possible for tonight.
Voight's office:
The phone on Voight's desk rang, he got as far as "Hello", when Sean Roman started talking over him. "Sarge, this is Roman, I thought you would want to know who just walked into the club less than five minutes apart." Voight could tell by the tone of Roman's voice that this was news that he needed to hear but that he wasn't going to like, so a little more gruffly than he should have spoken he answered Roman "Damn it Roman, just tell me who is in the building!" Roman swallowed hard and answered "Lindsay's boyfriend Landon walked in the place about 10 minutes ago, then five minutes ago, Erin showed up and went into the club, she didn't look so good." Voight yelled at Roman "Roman you stay there and the minute Erin walks out you call me!" "Yes, sir" Sean Roman, knew that call was not going to go well but at least now Voight wouldn't be surprised by Erin's being involved in this case.
Mouse's Office:
Kim and Jay were listening to Mouse tell them about the new smaller wires and ear pieces they would be wearing for the sting. He had even come up with a camera that was built into the pendent on the necklace Kim would be wearing tonight. Kim looked at Jay who seemed very focused on everything Mouse was saying to them and kept looking over at Kim getting the feeling that something was more wrong then he initially thought. "Hey Mouse, hold up a second, I need to talk to Burgess." Jay who could tell Kim was only 50% focused on what was going on in that office walked her into the hall. Once they were outside in the hall he looked at Kim, "Okay Spill, why are you so unfocused, on this one, the Kim Burgess, I know is laser focused always, plus you dreamed of undercover work and IC." Jay knew he was maybe being too harsh on his friend and current partner but the truth was he was beyond worried and seeing her this unfocused worried him even more. "Look Kim, if you think it would be better for Adam to go in with you, we can talk to Hank and see what we can do." Kim smiled at her friend and partner, "Jay, your sweet but that isn't it, in fact, going in with Adam might just make me more unfocused this time, because I would worry about him worrying about me." "Okay, so what it is then?" Kim hesitated, "Jay the last time I did something like this Nadia was with me and in the mist of keeping us both safe she did drugs so I didn't have too. While I miss Nadia and I am nervous about this sting, Jay I can't do drugs if it comes down to it, in fact, I don't even think I can drink tonight at this club and to look like the party girl, I need to." Jay looked confused, "What are you talking about you can't drink tonight? You were drinking with us all last week at Molly's." Kim looked at Jay could she possibly tell him what had her so distracted when she hadn't even had time to talk to Adam yet? She knew when Adam found out and until they knew for sure he would not want her on this sting. The more she pondered everything the more she wondered if she needed to go on it. Before, Kim could answer Jay, Adam came around the corner and spotted the very person he needed to talk to in order to make his world right.
