"Get up bro. If you're late, I am not going to bail you out with the boss." Daiki Kaito threw a pillow at his younger brother.

Kiba blinked his eyes open and groaned. "I know, I know. I'll meet you at the station."

Daiki rolled his eyes. "You better. I stuck my neck out to get you assigned here, don't fuck up the first day." He grabbed his bike keys and headed out of the apartment.

Kiba headed for the shower, then got dressed. Draping his badge over his hoodie, he grabbed his keys. Climbing on his bike, he headed for the 115th precinct.

Andy entered the office, cup of coffee in hand, ready to get started on some new cases. She looked around, noticing a face she hadn't seen before.

Kiba raised an eyebrow as he made his way toward the captain's office, noticing a beautiful detective nearby. He gave her his most endearing smile before knocking on the door.

Captain Kadoya growled. "You're late, Kaito. Get your ass in here."

Kiba gave Andy another smile as he slipped in.

Andy rolled her eyes as she got started on the stack of papers on her desk.

Kadoya scowled at the new detective as Daiki face palmed. "Didn't I tell you not to be late?"

Daiki's partner Tetsuya chuckled quietly.

Kiba raised his hands. "Traffic was bad."

The Captain rolled his eyes, but leaned back in his chair. "Detective, your record is good. But you won't get the same freedom here that you had in the 98th. I've got the Chief hovering over my shoulder because this is a trial program. So you're getting a partner."

It was Kiba's turn to scowl. "I've always worked alone."

"Not anymore." He rose from the desk, opening the door to the squad room. "Takimoto, get your ass in here!"

Andy looked up in surprise before quickly coming to the office, "Yes, sir?"

"Meet your new partner, Kiba Kaito."

"Has my work not been done well enough to continue working alone?" She questioned with a worried frown.

"Your work is fine. New rules from the Chief. Everyone gets a partner. This is a trial program and he wants as much oversight as possible." Kadoya sat down with an annoyed sigh. "Feels more like it's a way to screw us if something happens."

Daiki spoke to his brother. "Don't do anything stupid okay?"

Kiba gave him an innocent grin. "Moi?"

Tetsuya hid a smile behind his cup as Daiki groaned.

Andy held her hand out, "I'm Andaka Takimoto."

Kiba took it, bending and kissing her fingers. "Get a drink with me?"

Andy stared at him for a moment, "I don't date coworkers."

He gave her a look. "Did I say date? I said drink, so we can get to know each other."

Daiki stood, slapping the back of Kiba's head. "I hope she eats you alive, idiot." He and Tetsuya left the office, heading for their corner desks.

Kadoya rolled his eyes. "Get out of my office. Kaito, Takimoto has my permission to shoot you if you keep annoying her. Keep your head on the job."

As they headed down the stairs, Andy spoke, "I'm sure we will get to know enough about each other at work." When she got to her desk she handed him a stack, "These papers need sorting."

His lips curled up but he remained silent and began the task.

Andy went back to finishing up the paperwork she was already on, trying to accept that she had to work with someone else.
