AN: To clear up some confusion. I've posted about four chapters over the last two days. This would be the fifth. If you are a bit confused as to time line or who remembers what... Might want to go back, but to help out: Kim remembers nothing from between arriving at the club till they ended up in her hotel room. She does remember that. Adam? Well, lets just say that his memory is up to debate.

Now, I don't know about ya'll, but once I finish the basics of a story I get super excited. I just want to share it with all of you!. Which explains the quick updates this weekend. However, I wont' be able to update this much for awhile. So hope this chapter will tide you over. Happy Reading!

Plot Twist

He loves me. He says he loves me. I'm leaned up against the wall still and damn this apartment is quiet. I've got to get to work. I've got to get moving. Did he leave? Did he really leave? I peel myself off the wall and begin to grab my stuff. Coat? Check. Keys? Check. Brain? I think we may have a runner. Or is that my heart? I am so confused right now that I don't know what to do. Go to work. That's right.

Driving into work takes more concentration than normal since I am seriously having a hard time not thinking about Adam's words. How can he still love me?

I find the first parking spot I can and make my way into the precinct. Before I can even head towards the stairs to the locker room, Platt is already calling me over.

"Burgess, get your skinny butt over here."

I close my eyes and wish that I could avoid this. I shove my left hand into my pocket as I realize that I am still wearing my ring. Nope, haven't taken it off. Not once. Not thinking about that. I walk up to the desk and take a breath to deal with the sergeant.

"What's up, Sarg?"

"Don't even bother changing. Voight needs to see you upstairs. Turns out your number has been pulled. Detailed to Intelligence. Permanently. Don't screw up."

"W..What? What about Tay?"

"She'll get a new partner. Get up there. Now."

Platt is now shooing me away and I, of course, just start walking in that direction because my brain cannot possibly deal with any more surprises. Platt buzzes me in and I start to make my way up the stairs. Once I reach the landing, I start for Voight's office, but what I am really looking for is Adam. He's at his desk and he just looks away as I get up there. I can tell that Kevin is concerned that something is up because he comes up to me and gives me a hug before I can get past his desk. He whispers in my ear as he is hugging me.

"Congrats. What the hell is up with you and Adam?"

"Don't worry about it."

"I will when the man goes from looking like his old self to looking like a kicked dog. What the hell?"

"Not now, Kevin."

I pull out of the hug and head for Voight's office. I can't handle Atwater or his concern, right now. I knock on Voight's door and wait for his request for me to enter. I walk in and Voight signals for me to shut the door.

"Well, Burgess. We knew this day would come. Welcome. I'll have you ride around with Antonio and Atwater today. They'll help you get acclimated. We will see about a temporary desk for you till we get all the moves figured out. Ok. That's it. Get to work."

"Thanks, Sarg."

I go to turn around and Voight clears his throat.

"One more thing. You and Ruzek. That isn't going to be a problem, is it? I mean with the break up and all."

Oh God. Well, is a Vegas wedding, a lost part of my memory, and our first marital tiff a problem?

"No, sir. Not at all."

"Ok, good. Go ahead."

I walk out of the office and keep his door open since he didn't tell me to do anything different. I walk towards Atwater who is seated at his desk.

"Hey, Kev. Give me a minute and I'll have you get me up to speed."

"No problem. Sounds like a plan."

I turn and look at Adam. He is actively trying to ignore me, but as I knew would happen he can't help but look at me. I signal towards the locker room and then I head in that direction. I wasn't sure that he was going to follow me, but once I am in there and turn around he is right behind me.

"Congrats. I know you have wanted this."

The words are spoken, but there is a different meaning behind them. He's hurt. I did that. I look down because I know I can't exactly take that away. I walk right up to him and grip his neck to pull his lips down to mine. He tries to resist for a second but is then wrapping his arms around me and cradling the back of my head to hold me to him. I pull back and wait for him to open his eyes so I know he can see that I mean every word.

"I'm sorry. I'm just really scared and confused. And now this."

"We'll figure it out. If we want this to work, it will."

Adam leans his forehead back onto mine and I just let him hold me for a minute. Till I hear someone clear their throat. I look over Adam's shoulder and see Atwater standing in the door.

"You two better break apart before Antonio gets in here. We got a call…gotta run."

Adam nods and then lets me go. I walk towards Atwater and Adam speaks to him.

"Keep her safe."

"I always do, Brother. Don't worry. She's got my back and I got hers. Just like old times."

Atwater pats me on the back and I smile back to Adam. Kevin and I head out to find Antonio and start our day.
