《Rosewood x Station 19》Chapter Two
Advertisement
The whole team was sat in the beanery eating lunch, even Robert, who barely ever joined us for meals. It had been a week since I'd gone over to his house and we'd made up, and we'd been seeing each other ever since. Nobody at work could know though, so we had to keep it a secret. He's battalion chief, I'm a lieutenant, it's against the rules.
I was sat eating, when my phone started to ring. When I looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Rosie, I frowned slightly.
"Um, I've got to go and take this," I said and headed out of the room.
"Hi," he said when I picked up the phone.
"Hi, is everything okay?" I asked.
"It's Annalise, she got shot," he said.
"What?! How is she? Is she okay?" I asked, panicking.
"She's in surgery now, I haven't had anymore updates on how she's doing," he said.
"Oh. I'll see if I can get some time off and I'll come to Miami as soon as I can," I said.
"No, we're not in Miami, we're in New York," he said.
"Oh yeah, of course. Annalise told me that the other day, she said it was something to do with Eddie, but she never said what. I'll still try and come," I said.
"You don't have to it's a long way to travel," Rosie said, and I shook my head even though he can't see me.
"Yes, Rosie, I do. I need to be there for her," I said, perhaps a little more harshly than I had meant to.
"Yeah I get that. I'll see you when you get here," he said.
"Yeah, see you, bye," I said. When I hung up, I let my arm drop to my side.

Annalise had been shot. I knew that with her being a homicide detective, it was always a risk, just like it was always a risk that I was going to get injured at a fire, but I never thought it would actually happen.
When Andy came back from taking the phone call, she looked like she had seen a ghost.
"Herrera, is everything okay?" I asked, keeping it profesional so that nobody finds out about us.
"Um... not really... that was Rosie calling," she said, and I thought for a moment.
"Rosie? He's Annalise's partner and her best friend, right?" I asked and she nodded.
"Okay, are we missing something? Who are Rosie and Annalise?" Hughes asked.
"Mutual friends," I lied. "Are they okay? Did something happen?" I asked Andy.
"Annalise... she got shot," she stuttered, and I went over and pulled her into a hug, not caring that everyone was watching.
"Is she okay?" I asked, when we pulled apart.
"I don't know. Rosie said that she's still in surgery," Andy said.
"If you want to go to Miami to be with her, you can take a few days off, however long you need," I told her. I wish I could go with her, but as battalion chief, I'm needed here in Seattle.
"They're in New York, not Miami. Annalise said something about them going there. She said it was to do with Eddie, but that's all I know," Andy said.
"Go, it's okay. Call me if you need anything, or if anything changes with Annalise," I told her, and she smiled at me gratefully before running straight out of the station. I wanted so badly to kiss her goodbye, but I couldn't in front of the whole team, and I didn't want to make her wait any longer to go and see Annalise.

"Chief?" Warren said, snapping me back to reality. I might not be that close to Annalise, but I was still really worried.
"Yes Warren," I said.
"If you don't mind me asking, how did yours and Andy's friend get shot?" He asked.
"Um, I'm not sure exactly. It was probably while she was on the job, she's a homicide detective," I told them.
"Wow that's pretty badass," Hughes said and everyone agreed.
"Right, 19, time to get back to work. Gibson, you'll be lead lieutenant until Herrera gets back," Bishop ordered, and everyone got back to what they were doing.

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
