from the moment coffee was exchanged.  erin has been there for mia ,  not only her partner but a friend and someone she felt she could go to for anything.  there was so much love and respect between the two ,  that without a doubt nor QUESTION in the mind.  each other take a bullet for the other if the opportunity came.  they say that’s what partner’s do ,  but it’s rare for mia to become so close to another detective.  one that she can talk about her past without shame ,  without worry that she’d be judged or scolded.  THERE’D BE NO PITY.  so how could she not be there for erin at a time of need  ?  mia found her partner sitting against the metal table in the middle of the interrogation room ,  alone ,  pacing back and forth.  almost like she was a lioness honing in on prey that wasn’t even there.  the door is then closed behind her ,  she asked for privacy from everyone else in the station.  knowing it was hard enough on erin to know yates escaped prison.

GREGORY YATES ,  that infamous serial killer that took chicago p.d and new york’s svu to get him behind bars.  not only that ,  but the detective knew her partner had some sort of personal ties to the killer.  something violent ,  something that mia saw in herself from time to time.  “   are you gonna go back to chicago  ?   ”  duty over everything right  ?  “  heard that’s where he’s headin’.   ”

     “ How far are you willing to go, Lindsay? ” It’s a question he’s dying to know the answer to. Anticipation builds in the depth of his chest, puffed out as he approaches her like he might snap at any given moment, like steam pours from his reddened ears. ( He could never put hands on her. Not after all they’ve been through. ) Doesn’t stop him from instigating & poking his stick into the fire.

❛   HEY!   LOOK  WHAT  THE  CAT  DRAGGED  IN ——   ❜

there’s  a  hint  of  amusement  tinging  piper’s  voice.   studies  erin  just  once,  before  moving  her  gaze  TO  THE  CIGARETTE  in  her  hands.  flicking  away  ashes.   she’s  just  sitting  outside  of  the  office  /  home,  listening  to  nat  shout  about  the  news.   the  kid’s  A  LITTLE  TOO  GOOD  at  handing  out  newspapers.   in  fact,  nat  doesn’t  even  pause,  doesn’t  act  like  she  recognizes  nat.   just  continues  forward,  always.   give  her  a  couple  seconds,  CURIOSITY  IT  GOING  TO  KICK  IN.

"You gonna kill me, Rome? That it? After surviving all the shit we've been through, you just gonna cut me loose in the worst way?" she prods, throat hoarse from all the yelling as she boldly strides toward him, firmly gripping his jaw. "Like you said to me once: just make sure I'm fucking dead, 'less you wanna deal with the aftermath."

     Is she really using his own words against him? Consider his ass tanned. He fills up with rage much like a hot-air balloon, cheeks & ears burning red while his lungs shrivel into blackness. ( Not to be overly dramatic, of course. ) It’s his own fault for flying off the handle, saying some shit he shouldn’t have. Not once did he ever think he’d threaten her life but fast-paced moments laced with day-old tangles of a fucked up love affair seems to unlock the very worst in Roman. Certainly not his finest moment but even with his anger, the kingpin does not deny Erin the right to reprimand.

    “ I--- ” he falls short due to the bite of her nails. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot bring himself to avert his gaze. “ ------I didn’t fuckin’ mean it, alright?! You got me all wound up, always pushing my goddamn buttons! I’m tired of that shit! ” 

    Unintended pause, his fingers wriggle into her palm so he can pry her steel-like grip from his jawline. Unlike any time before, Roman holds her with a sudden gentleness & his voice, scratchy from all the yelling, grows quiet. “ Aren’t you tired of all this shit? ”

"How about some holiday shots?" Already on her way to drowning out old memories from childhood, she lazily holds out the bottle of Makers, a half smile on her face. "And by shots, I mean, just take a swig 'cause I've no idea where my shot glasses are."

christmas was that time of year where families come together ,  eat and celebrate the holiday.  hopefully politics were wiped from everyone’s conversation because that seemed to be the ONLY way people could get along.  but her family was a bit different ,  italian’s were always big and loud and always yelling at each other   (   even if they were just having a normal conversation.   )   mia remember’s when she was younger she would visit her family in italy with her parents.  but for some time now ,  the relatives that live in florence came to new york instead.  it just wasn’t christmas until her all the women in her family tried talking her into dating some guy who was a son of a friend of a friend.  or having christmas without her zio giuseppe’s dad joke’s.  after all was said and done ,  and mia was COMPLETELY stuffed.  she went to erin’s to spend the rest of her night there ,  keeping her company   (   when knowing her holiday’s were usually spent alone.   )  mia had been drinking already ,  so she already had the bottle of whiskey in her hand.  the cap was already screwed off when erin told her to just drink from the bottle.   she emits a short hum ,   “   i’m way ahead of ya’ ,   ”   she says before taking a full swig.  eyes shut while she BRAVES the burn that comes with drinking whiskey.   “   fuck it   …   just bring two glasses ,  we’ll drink it out of there.   ”   there’s a beat and then she turns in the couch to face the other woman.   “   we should watch nightmare on elm street.   ”

“apply pressure to the wound, don’t let go.”

“   yeah ,  no fuckin’ shit erin  !   ”   excuse her sudden outburst ,  but as you can imagine she was in tremendous pain.  sympathize with her for just a second while she attempts to IGNORE this sharp pain in her left calf.  mia leans against a wheel-less car ,  one of many in the junkyard where cars go to be crushed and piled.  scraps of metal and beyond the lot was the hudson ,  so the smell of the river filled the air.  her hands clasped around her leg ,  trying to keep the pressure on the wound that was pouring with blood.  head leans back against the rusted metal ,  air pulled in through her teeth as she braces for the continuous wave of agony.  for a week or so ,  the detectives were focused on their case ,  one that involved a gang related murder   (   or so it seemed ,  there was a lot of twists and turns in the case.   )   they reviewed files ,  continued to get evidence when and where they could.  and interrogated   /   interviewed witnesses and potential suspects.  eventually ,  it all came down to tracking down one man who seemed to have a big connection to the case.  so they went to find him ,  and when they did ,  right when they called out to him.  he started to run ,  to which both mia and erin went to run after him.  after chasing him into this junkyard ,  it was like searching for a needle in a haystack.  he could have been anywhere ,  but his mistake is what gave him away.  and mia went after him ,  ahead of erin               despite her partner’s protests to wait for her.  

the rest of what happened was self explanatory ,  though mia wasn’t entirely in the line of fire.  she only got hit with a stray bullet because it ricocheted off one of the cars.  and despite her injury ,  she still squeezed the trigger of her gun.  though ,  there was no luck   …   the guy was out of view.   “   don’t worry about me ,  go get the fucker  !   ”  she said while gesturing erin to go when she she was kneeling down in front of her and radioing for backup and the emt.
