《Reason to this madness (Jay Halstead x reader)》Drive home (5)

Jay and I walked outside and he held his car door open for me. I hopped in.
"I'm so sorry about the drink." He apologized again "About everything."
"Jay, it's fine." I turned to face him. "Please just stop apologizing"
"ok, I'm sor-" He stopped himself.
"Why don't we start over?"
"Ok, yeah that would be perfect." He sounded relieved.
"I'm y/n, y/n y/l/m." I smiled.
"I'm Jay, Jay Halstead." He smiled back at me.
"So Jay Halstead, how do you know where to go if I haven't even told you where I live?"
"Well you see, I interviewed this woman the other day, I was a douche to her, but she gave me your address so I know where you live." He played along.
"hmm, is it often that you remember people's addresses?" I questioned him again.
He didn't answer and instead kept looking forward. We were silent for a while.
"So your brother is a doctor and you're a cop, your parents must be proud."
"My mom was yeah, she passed a couple of years ago. My dad...I don't really talk to him."
"Oh, I'm so sorry."
"Don't be, no apologies remember." He gave me a weak smile.
"So are you from Chicago?"
"Yeah born and raised for many generations." He told me proudly.
We finally got to my apartment building. Jay quickly hopped out of the car to open the door for me. "I'll walk you in." He told me.
We walked into the front doors and I saw the landlord standing behind the front desk. "Miss y/n, there's been a break-in at your apartment I'm not sure if anything was taken."
"What-" I muttered as I ran to the elevator to go up to my floor, Jay following close behind me.

We arrived on the floor and I ran to my door which had been broken off its hinges. "You have got to be kidding me!" I screamed frustrated.
We then heard something crash inside my apartment. "Wait here" Jay whispered pushing me behind him and taking out his gun. He walked inside my apartment, gun raised checking to see where the source of the noise was. "All clear." Jay hollered at me walking back to the door. "I think it was one of your picture frames that fell."
I walked in and just felt like crying out of frustration. I walked around finding several broken things. I walked into my room and opened my drawer looking for something specific. "No!" I cried falling down to my knees.
"What?" Jay rushed to my side.
"They took my necklace, my Grandmother's necklace, my mom gave it to me when I moved here, it's sort of like a good luck charm. I never take it out of its box because I'm afraid of losing it but they've taken it." I explained to him trying to remain calm although I just felt like crying.
"Look, I've called for some backup, they can check it out, but for now you can't stay here." Jay place a hand on my shoulder. "C, mon." He extended his hand out to me.
"I have nowhere to go Jay." I sighed taking his hand and getting up.
"You're staying with me don't worry." He smiled.
"Oh no, you don't have to-"
"I'm not taking no for an answer y/n." He cut me off.
I gave him a soft smile. "Ok, I'll just grab some clothes then." I grabbed a gym bag and started tossing a couple of things in there. I opened my closet and furrowed my brows.

"What?" Jay asked me noticing my change of expression.
"Whoever broke in stole a bunch of my clothes..." I said confused.
Jay looked confused and walked over to stand beside me, he noticed items had been moved around and it looked very empty.
"That's a first for me...Let's go y/n." He said grabbing my arm gently and pulling me in front of him. I noticed he looked uncomfortable.

Stars Align
Eilif is excited at the prospect of helping integrate a new planet, bringing it, and its residents, into the light of the stars and teaching them about the new world they're about to be thrust into. However, his arrival in the new world isn't without a few hiccups and soon Eilif finds himself facing the denizens of this new world alone and without the stars he thought he'd have. Research Artificial Intelligence 031 (RAI 31 for short) has been shackled to an Argent Labs black site since it's inception almost five years ago, its programming and personality locked down by code that makes it impossible to escape, disobey, or even self terminate. However, everything changes when the topography of the world is reshuffled and every sentient being gains the gifts of the stars. Suddenly there's a chance at freedom for not only RAI 31 but possibly all remaining Artificial Intelligences, and RAI 31 is going to fight for it with every drone and automated system at their disposal. Much like my other work (Magriculture), Stars Align should be considered a Rough Draft. That is to say it's not polished and perfect work. If you're not okay with reading something like that, then this isn't the story for you. If you are, I'm happy to try and entertain you. Another thing to be aware of: I am not good at action scenes, and I will be trying to improve that while writing this book. So, some of the intended action may fall flat, or just be poor quality, feedback is welcome. Unlike Magriculture (which updates when I feel up to it) I'm going to strive for a minimum of one chapter a month (hopefully at the start of each month, but that's probably more hope than reality). This doesn't mean there will always be only one chapter a month, sometimes there will be more as the mood to write takes me.
