Unnamed Army/ Flight Attedant AU
Chapter 1
I wanted to do an Army AU for a long time. My brain had one little plot, and it had a bunch of plot bunnies. So, I have so many ideas for this if people end up liking it. If you read Rewind, Remix, & Replay fear not I will be continuing that as well.  
Before anyone comes at me for Kim being out of character this was when Jay was still in the Army making him about 22(he was in about 5-6 years and I assumed he enlisted when he was 18) making Kim (for the purpose of this story) about 19.  
Warning; I know next to nothing about Military life or being a flight attendant. I realize that most of this stuff his so improbable it funny and that all of my information is probably incorrect, but you will just have to accept it as part of the AU story.  
Kim didn’t even have time to process what happened when she heard the bang. She turned instinctively towards the sound and saw a Muslim man fall to the ground. A gun fell from his hands, a bullet dead center in his forehead. The few Rangers on the ground took up a defensive position around her scanning the surrounding area.
The ringing in her ears reverberated through her body, drowning out the pounding of her heart and the anxiety choking her throat. What was she doing here? She wasn’t supposed to be here. If she had known that taking Allie’s spot would lead to this she never would have agreed. That girl was always getting her in trouble.
Kim’s eyes dart around her surroundings looking for who had shot the other man. The man that had a gun. A gun that was pointed at her. A gun that had a bullet. A bullet that could have killed her.
“What was that?” Escapes her in a sharp breath. The man next to her with dark eyes, glanced at her. His stance relaxed slightly, and a half-smirk came to his lips. Kim looked at him like he was crazy.
“That was Halstead. If you're down here working, he is the one you want up there watching your six.” The man gave a nearly imperceivable tilt of his head towards a building. Kim felt dazed, eyes unfocused. She heard the click of the radio more than she saw it. “Good looking out Ricky.” If there was a response Kim didn’t hear it as they shuffled her into the back of the Humvee and down the now deserted road back. The Humvee jolted over uneven roads as the Rangers flanked her, their rifles poised for action. By the time they reached camp, her thoughts were still a whirlwind.
Kim vaguely remembered being led into the Rangers camp and sat down in a chair. She didn’t remember anyone setting food and water down in front of her but when she blinked it was there. Kim sluggishly looked up to see a thin lean man with brown hair standing off to her side. He was looking at her a worried expression furrowing his eyebrows.
A noise caught his attention and Kim followed his gaze. A man came in the doorway. Kim could only see his side profile but she could almost feel the power and control radiating off his calm collected disputation. He was tall with an athletic build his shirt stretched taut against his shoulders and chest. One of his hands was shoved into the pockets of his pants. Kim could see the curve of his strong jaw but his face was mostly obscured by a dark baseball cap. His clothes were dirty with dust and sweat and skewed.
An echo call of “Ricky” went through the camp. The name caught Kim’s attention-the sniper. It caught the man's attention too. He turned giving Kim a clear view of his face. He had dark stubble on his jaw and around his mouth, his lip pursed to hold a cigarette which he tilted his head back slightly taking a long hit. He shouldn’t have made smoking look so good but he did. Kim didn’t want to know what bad habits he could make her want to have.
Jay “Ricky” Halstead took a desperate drag from his cigarette as he walked back into camp. He had been on surveillance for the last 13 hours. He was the best, and with the riots coming through the towns, they wanted the best. The long hours of staying in one position were common but left Jay feeling sore and stiff. Knowing his and his battalions' lives were on the line while he looked through his scope caused a completely different fatigue. One that had him craving a bed almost as much as a light.
He heard his callsign be called out in greeting back to the camp. He turned his sharp eyes scanning the camp, it was a habit ingrained in him every day, every hour, every minute. He inhales his cigarette as his eyes analyze everything starting at the far corner of the barricade of camp, over the outhouses, to the makeshift barracks, Mouse standing by the tables, and then his eyes stop on the figure sitting in the chair beside him. She was a slight thing, brunette waves falling messily around her warm innocent face, and his blue eyes locked with her whiskey brown.
She didn’t belong here.
A now foreign warmth filled his chest uncomfortably. When he had seen her in the street from the back, he had almost mistaken her for Abby McSweeney. Abby was a brunette and the only girl in the 75th Rangers division. His tired mind had automatically filled in the blank as he saw the man approaching pulling a dark object from the folds of his clothes. It was only after he pulled the trigger, and the man had dropped the bullet dead center in his forehead that Jay realized his mistake. The woman had spun around her eyes frantically searching for where the shot had come from. Jay had felt an overwhelming urge to protect her.
Jay was wired for observation now his brain supplied him with information. Female. 5’5 or 5’5 Slender build. 120-130 pounds. Young. Brunette. Brown eyes. United States. Civilian. She was in shock. He watched as a few of the Rangers tugged her along urging her into the back of the Humvee. He had been stuck for another hour and a half. He had forcefully pushed her out of his mind. Distractions got people killed here.
He hadn’t expected to see her in his camp. Their eye contact was broken by Knox walking up to him. Jay knew the drill and gave him a quick up efficient final report. He was the one who would be swapping spots with temp in sniper position but only long enough for Jay to eat, sleep, and if he was lucky wash off before he was pulled back out there. Knox nodded and Jay stopped him.
“Hey man what’s with the civilian?” Knox turned back to look at the woman looking her over in a way Jay didn’t like.
“She’s a looker, ain’t she? Hopefully, they let her stay for a while.” He should have known better than to try to get information from Knox there was something just off about him. Remy cut him off giving Jay actual information.
“She is a flight attendant from The States. Came here on a mission to get some of the women and children refugees out. They didn’t get the news about the riots fast enough. There was a plane to take her back. Heard she gave up her seat for sick orphan sisters or some other Mother Teresa shit.”
“Just what we need a God damn Humanitarian in a camp of soldiers.” Their superior gruff voice pulled the groups' attention. “She is here for less than 48 hours. You boys will be on your best behavior and keep it in your pants or lose it, you understand? No one is to touch her, don’t even breathe on her. Because I will be damned if you make her uncomfortable. If it causes trouble for me- it's going to cause trouble for you.” He glares at the group, his eyes narrowing at Knox. “Don’t you have somewhere to be?” He started walking and Knox relucent followed behind him stealing one more glance at the woman.
Kim had felt heavy in her chair, the sound of the men working and sand crunching under their boots muffled by the buzz in her head time seemed distorted and her vision blurred around the edges. Then those blue eyes catch hers again and she is locked into them. She doesn’t remember standing but soon she is almost in front of him like a moth drawn to a flame.
The smell of the smoke from the half-smoked cigarette was something familiar her mind latched onto. It smelled like the holidays with her family, her grandpa and uncles chain-smoking as they manned the BBQ and wandered around the yard looking for projects and things to fix. There was a sharp undertone of something acrid: Gunpowder.
Kim stalled a few steps in front of him. Of course, it was. He had shot the gun that had saved her life. If he hadn’t smelt like gunpowder, she would. And she would have been the one dead on the ground of the street and not the man who had used the riots as a cover to kill the US troops. Her heart raced and her emotions caught in her throat, uncomfortable but unable to really feel them.
Jay was solid and unwavering in the shadows of dusk approaching. He took another deep inhale of his cigarette before crushing it under the sole of his combat boot. Kim’s skin was pale and clammy, her movements were sluggish, brown eyes unfocused. Her hands were strangling the water bottle she was holding. She was clearly in shock. Mouse was standing a few feet behind her concerned as well. “You…” Jay crept closer to hear her soft voice. He waited patiently as she tried to catch jagged breathing. Jay was worried she might start hyperventilating. She had been taking everything surprisingly well. “You saved my life.”
“And you are in shock.” Kim shook her head slightly before nodding. “You should drink that water-it will help.” She looked at him confused and he inclined his head down to the bottle in her hands. She brought it up to chest level her knuckles white from how tight she was holding it. “Here,” A warm palm grazed her clammy hands, and deft turned the cap breaking the seal on the water. She looked at it like she didn’t know what it was.
Jay's hand went under the bottom of the bottle smoothly easing it up. Muscle memory took over and Kim brought it to her lips to drink. Jay watched as she downed half of the bottle. When she brought it back down, she seemed more aware. “There you go, a little more.” He tapped the bottom of the bottle back up and she again drank almost finishing it. Jay searched her face and was relieved to see that her eyes seemed more focused. “Good,”
This time when she brought the bottle down her hands trembled. She pulled them close to her body trying to hide the shake. “It’s okay, you don’t have to be embarrassed. It’s a totally normal reaction to what happened today.” Kim did another head shake then nodded. Jay took a risk and lightly touched her shoulder. When she didn’t shrink away or show any sign of distress, he firmed the touch guiding her back to the table she had been sitting at. “C’mon, let’s sit down for a while.”
Kim gets eased down into a chair. It’s firm and grounding underneath her. Jay sat next to her wanting to stay at her height to not overshadow her. “Take a few deep breaths for me.” Kim inhaled and let out a shallow breath. “It can help to lean forward.” He encouraged her to do so by pressing down on the center of her back. She hinged forward resting her arms on her thighs.
Jay rubbed her back gently as her dark hair fell in a curtain around her face. Her breath finally started to even. Jay shared a relieved look with his best friend. Mouse watched as he looked back down at Kim. It was a look Mouse hadn’t seen in a long time. His brother-in-arms looked emphatic, human- instead of the stoic he had become used to seeing.
Kim didn’t know how long she had been sitting there when she finally started to ease herself up but her butt was numb. Her brain seemed to finally displace the fuzz. Her senses wake back up. The sounds of the people moving around the camp, voices, people laughing. The smell of something cooking and smoke. The feel of a large warm palm on her back rubbing small comforting circles.
Kim feels self-conscious worried that when she sat up everyone would be staring at her. Judging her for her over-the-top reaction. She steeled herself as she sat up. But nobody was looking at her. They were going about their night like nothing had happened. There was a lean man to her slight left. He had been the one who had given her water and tried to get her to eat. When she turned her head to the right it was the blue-eyed sniper.
His hand slid further down to her midback his callouses catching the fabric of her shirt. He slowed the circles on her back to a stop. Kim absentmindedly wondered if he had a little sister who had taught him to be so gentle and supportive. He leaned forward in his chair to see around to her face looking her over, “There we go. How do you feel.”
“Better,” Her voice sounded off even to her own ears. She tried to make up for it by giving him a halfhearted smile. “Thank you, Ricky.” Kim's words were laced with sincerity and gratitude. She was thanking him for a lot more than just helping her through her shock.
Jay’s posture stiffened, her calling him by his call sign was like being hit with a cold bucket of water. It reminded him that here he wasn’t Jay, he was Ricky. He was a soldier, ranger, sniper.
Mouse immediately noticed Jay go back into solider mode. “Halstead, are you still up? You know you're back out on surveillance at 0100.” A man called out as he walked past heading to retrieve his gun for his own shift. Jay scrubbed his hand down his jaw and then smacked his hands on his thighs before standing up.
Kim felt guilt course through her. Jay had stayed with her throughout her entire meltdown to comfort her. Now it was dark. When she looked up at him, she could see the exhaustion etched on his face. “If you're good, I’m going to try to catch a few hours.”
Kim sat up a little straighter as she heard the change in his voice, the stiffness of his posture. He almost seemed like a different person. “Yeah, of course.” Jay had turned to head to the barracks before she could even finish. Kim looked at the other man in confusion. He just gave her a smile that barely upturned his lips.

"Bite Down On This"
Read on AO3 here.
Jay ducks as gunfire rings out around them. 
The ambush had come out of nowhere as they’d moved toward their target, sending the team scrambling for cover. 
Nobody is even supposed to know that they’re here and now they’re under attack and pinned down behind enemy lines. 
Like the others, he’s firing suppressive cover fire, watching for any flanking attempts and searching for an exit strategy. 
A high pitched whistling sound catches his attention and he looks up to see a projectile flying toward them. 
“Eli!” he shouts, diving toward his closest teammate and slamming him out of the path of the projectile. 
They are both pushed further clear by the force of the blast, slamming into a rock formation. 
Jay falls back to the ground, rolling to his back with a groan. 
“Halstead! Crawford!” 
He sits up, pressing a hand to the side of his head. 
“I’m good.” he calls back. 
“That’s a stretch.” Eli says and he glances over to see him scrambling closer on his hands and knees. 
“You okay?” he asks. 
“Shoulder got to know the rocks really well but I’ll be okay.” Eli says. “But you’re bleeding.”
“Am I?” he says, pulling his hand away from his head and looking at it. 
“Not your head.” Eli says, opening the pouch on his vest and unfurling a pressure bandage. “Your leg.”
Jay looks down, seeing the blood pooling under his leg and the messy looking wound on his thigh. 
Then Eli is pressing the bandage over the top of the injury. 
“Can you bend your knee?” he asks and Jay nods, slowly dragging his foot closer to his body, bending his knee to lift his thigh off the ground so that Eli can wrap the bandage around his leg. 
Once it’s been tied off, Jay pulls his gun closer. 
“We need to get out of here.” he says, looking over at Sergeant Carter who has moved closer to them. 
The man nods. 
“We’re fish in a barrel for these guys.” he confirms. “Can you walk, Jay?”
“I can manage.” he says. “If Eli will help me?”
“I got you, man.”
“Alright.” Carter says, glancing around. “Let’s move.”
Jay struggles to his feet, leaning heavily on Eli and hefting his gun higher. 
Carter points to the Northeast. 
“We’ll hunker down in the mountains and wait for backup to get here.” he says. 
It’s a longer walk to said rock formations than Jay likes but he nods. 
The squad collapses in and he tries to ignore the way that them forming a protective barrier around him makes him feel. 
He’s become a liability. One that might get someone else killed. 
But trying to insist that they go on without him will just slow the whole team’s progress so he grits his teeth and pushes forward. 
He sees movement at their ten o’clock. 
“Jerry, down.” he snaps, waiting a split second for his friend to drop before taking his shot. 
His AK-47 isn’t as accurate as his sniper rifle and shooting left handed while standing up doesn’t offer much support but they don’t call him ‘Ricky’ for nothing and he wings the man. 
They push forward, reaching the foothills and quickly disappearing in the rocky formations. 
They move deeper into the hills until they find a ravine and set up a defensible position. 
“Alright.” Carter says. “We’ve got some time before they’ll be able to get an extraction team in so we need to hold this position down. Let’s plan on staying down and out of sight for as long as possible.”
“What about the target?” Jay asks. “If we lose him here it might take years to track him down again.”
“They saw us coming.” Carter says. “Halstead we are under fire here.”
“They are expecting us to go to ground and wait for backup.” Jay argues. “They’d never see us coming.”
“You can barely walk.” he scoffs. “They’d see you coming a mile away.”
“Which is what makes me a great distraction.” Jay says. “I’ll take the high ground, pick them off from a distance and sell the idea that we’re all there. Meanwhile the rest of you take care of business.”
“We are not leaving you alone on the mountainside somewhere.” Carter growls. 
“I’ll stay with him.” Eli offers. “Cover his six while he does his one man army thing.”
“You and I both know that a high risk extraction behind enemy lines won’t be a priority.” Jay says quietly. “If we get the job done…”
“Puts more pressure on the brass.” Carter finishes. “Might speed up the extraction.”
Jay points to a ridge. 
“Won’t take us long to get up there.” he says. 
“You mean won’t take me long to carry you.” Eli jokes. 
“Just make sure you don’t leave behind the whiskey I brought.” Jay shoots back. 
“Alright.” Carter says. “I don’t love it but Halstead is right. It can only help our cause to get the job done. Crawford, stick with him. Get his blown up ass up to that ridge. The rest of us will start making our move toward the target.”
Jay reaches out a hand which Eli quickly takes, helping him to his feet. 
“Don’t do anything stupid.” Carter orders. 
Jay nods. 
He sinks into position on the ridge with a groan. 
“You’re bleeding through the bandage.” Eli comments. “I thought it would have stopped by now.”
“It’s all the walking.” Jay says. “It’ll stop soon.”
“I don’t think so.” Eli says. “Jay, that’s a lot of blood.”
“Unless you’ve got a trauma surgeon in your first aid kit, I’m not sure what else we can do out here.” Jay says, shaking his head. “It’s too high up for a tourniquet.”
“We could cauterize.” Eli offers, biting his lip. 
Jay grimaces. 
“We’ve got work to do.” he says. 
“Even you can’t pretend to be an entire squad if you pass out from blood loss.” Eli argues. “You look like shit, man.”
“Fine.” Jay says. “But make it fast.”
Eli nods, retrieving his lighter and combat knife. 
Jay sets up his gun on the ledge, scanning for possible targets. ISIS members will be combing these hills looking for his team and all it will take is a glimmer of movement for him to set his plan into action. 
Plus it’s a good distraction from the fact that Eli wants to burn him.
He’s right. They need to stop the bleeding and this is the best option but that doesn’t mean that Jay has to like it. 
“Hey.” Eli says, drawing his attention behind him. “I’m ready.”
Jay sets the gun aside and rolls over, sitting up. 
Eli cuts the pressure bandage off, cuts the pant leg away and then splashes water from his canteen to clear some of the blood away from the wound. 
It still looks ugly and fresh blood immediately takes the place of what had been washed away. 
Eli glances back at where he’d propped his knife, heating from the lighter. 
“Bite down on this, okay?”
Jay takes the stick that he’s holding out with a grimace and slots it between his teeth, biting down. 
Eli picks up the knife, catching his eye. 
Jay nods and the man doesn’t hesitate, pressing the flat of the blade against the blood pooling on his leg. 
A muffled groan breaks free and he bites hard on the stick, both hands clenching into tight fists. 
He can smell burning flesh and closes his eyes, breathing in short pants through his nose. 
Finally, a hand falls on his shoulder. 
“All done.” Eli says. “Take a minute and catch your breath.”
“No.” Jay grunts, opening his mouth and letting the stick fall to the ground. “No, we’ve got work to do.”
“Damn it, Jay.” Eli grumbles. 
But he unwraps another pressure bandage, securing it over Jay’s leg. 
“At least keep it from getting infected.” he says, shaking his head. 
As soon as it’s in place, Jay rolls back onto his stomach and adjusts his rifle. 
He sees a flash of movement in the trees far below them and pops off a shot. He doesn’t make contact, the risk of it being an innocent civilian too high, but he gets it close enough. 
The possibility of an innocent goes out the window as someone shoots back. Jay’s next shot doesn’t miss. 
As time passes, he sees more and more movement in the trees and the men are getting closer and closer to them. 
“Bastards are closing in.” Eli says tightly. 
“We move down the ridge a hundred feet or so it might buy us some time.” Jay says, pulling back his rifle and struggling to his feet. 
“You up for that?” Eli asks, even as he moves closer, sliding under Jay’s left arm. 
“More up for that than getting shot or captured by ISIS.” Jay retorts. 
Eli sighs and starts dragging him along the ridge. 
It’s slow going and they don’t make it far before Jay can’t walk any further and Eli helps him drop back down to a prone position. 
“You should go.” he gasps. “I’ll keep their attention. You can link up with the rest of the squad.”
“I’m not leaving you.” Eli growls. 
“We are sitting ducks up here.” Jay says. “Especially with my leg. If you go now you can disappear.”
“Just shut up, asshole.” Eli says. “It’s not happening.”
Jay grits his teeth and settles down, dropping another man as he climbs the ridge. 
There are only a few passable paths up the ridge which keeps their attackers in a bottle neck. 
Its the approach behind them that has him concerned. 
Almost like he’d summoned them, he hears movement behind them. 
He doesn’t look back, trusting Eli to cover his six. 
A single shot rings out. 
“The back approach is getting messy on us.” he growls. 
“Still time for you to get the hell out of here.” Jay retorts. 
“Still time for you to shut the fuck up.” Eli snarls. 
“Then lets take as many of these assholes with us as we can.” Jay replies, firing off another shot. 
“Now that’s a sentiment that I can get behind.” 
It’s nearly on top of them before he hears the chopper over the sound of gunfire but as he turns to look over his shoulder, Sergeant Carter is leaning out of the bay. 
“You emotionally attached to this suicide mission?” the man calls. “Or should we all get the hell out of here?”
Nobody waits for his response, his brothers in arms flooding out of the chopper to cover them as Eli drags him to the chopper. 
His leg won’t even consider supporting his weight at this point but they make it all the same and the rest of the team falls back, laying down cover fire to keep the attackers at bay as the craft rises into the air. 
Jay sits back, breathing hard and resting a hand over his throbbing leg. 
“You got him.” 
It’s not really a question. He knows his team, knows they got the job done. 
“We got him.” Carter confirms. “Now let’s get you to a doctor, huh?”
“If we must.” Jay says, closing his eyes. 
They’ll wake him up if anything interesting happens.
Until then, he needs a nap.

I have come to the conclusion that Jay Halstead with a sniper rifle is a work of art
I will be making a note with episodes and time stamps of scenes for future reference. Problem is I’m already a good amount of seasons in and can’t my memory is crap. We’ll see how complete this list actually gets but a valid effort will be made starting now
Any and all time stamps are very welcome. I’m lazy and forgetful

what are your top 3 badass Jay moments? from 1x01 - 10x03 which of Jay's friendships do you think was shown too little or do you find it underrated? i find Burgstead's (Kim & Jay) friendship underrated and not shown or deepened enough (my opinion)
Jay punching Voight. One of the best moments of the show, ICONIC.
Jay telling Hailey about what "Ricky" means/where it came from. There is something so so bad ass about a man being vulnerable like that to me, that isn't really talked about enough and the fact that Jay opened up to Hailey about that time in his life is also so telling about how much he loves her.
Jay Halstead in a thigh holster. I don't really need to say more.
I wish we had seen more of Kim and Jay's friendship... I'd also love to see more of Jay and Adam, the two boys from Canaryville.

Hear me out please love if you are willing to write to write this
Tumblr media
Adam Ruzek x Jay halsteads little sister
The reader being the little sister to Jay and will halstead an having served with Jay and mouse in the rangers coming back a year after mouse had.an Jay getting overly angry hearing after his little sister (the reader) helping with one case that Adam and Antonio had been talking about his sister and sexualizing things she does that isn’t even something to sexualize an will having to pull Jay away from doing anything.
Tumblr media
Adam being in the room when they talked about the next case which had do deal with ex military and few acting out killing at random void saying only Jay and mouse an the reader was gonna be going to an can update them if they need back up sense the three of them will know the suspects more then anyone.which made Adam worry because even though he made those comments with Antonio he had actually started to really have feelings for the reader and love her the three of them leaving before he could say anything.
Hours going by an lindsey bringing up the fact they hadn’t heard anything so void said he was gonna see if he could find anything while antonio got a text which he put in the computer showing everyone.which was of Jay tied to a pipe bleeding from the shoulder and his head pretty bad with mouse passed out in the corner bleeding from his head an the readers coat in the corner covered in blood but no sign of her
Tumblr media
Them getting to Jay and mouse and getting them help and eventually then being okay while a whole day went by and they hadn’t heard from the reader until that next day at night they got a video of her on her knees with a gun pressed agianst the back of her head an a guy infront of her with the camera pointed at her grabbing her jaw asking if she had any last words calling her bullseye like jays had been Ricky and mouses was mouse.the reader looking at the guy behind the camera moving her hands from her head looking like she was gonna take the gun out of the guys hands before looking around an her face turning pale instantly making the others at the station realize it was more of them then they had even thought.
“What would your family think of you all you were supposed to protect this country sn here you are killing the citizens that you swore to protect” having not finished her sentence before the guy behind her lowered the gun shooting her in her back three times
Eventually being found and brought in but the doctors telling them she lost a lot of blood an two of the three bullets never exited her and one was very close to her spine.ending up being fine though and Adam not hearing from the reader but just hearing from mouse and Jay that she was okay and she’s tougher then that and has been through worse
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Causing Adam to show up at jays to see the reader who was sleepy an surpised when he showed up cupping her face confessing all his feelings for her and that he was scared he was gonna lose her before he could tell her how he felt for her
But Adam seeing papers on the table by the door that was from the rangers which were asking her to come back and serve another six years it seeming like she was planning on it even when he asked her “I don’t know it’s different there then here I mean I love my brother and everyone here don’t get me wrong but those guys came home and became killers an it’s not normal” him kissing her before she could say anything else an telling her that he didn’t wanna lose her like he almost had an him seeing her face just become overly beat red an telling her just to think about it
Tumblr media
Void and Kim and Adam all looking at Jay and the readers and mouses military file mouse being realeased due to ptsd after a ied,Jay being realeased to to ptsd and nightmares of death of his friends with a huge rap sheet of injuries,an Adam picking up the readers file
Y:n halstead (bullseye)
Injury list:broken wrist,6 broken fingers,broke leg,sprained ankle,8 broken ribs.12 gunshot wounds
Released:due to family request:free to come back
Which meant she really could go back if she wanted to an they would take her back without question an Adam comes over to jays acting like he came to watch the game with him and mouse having brought Kevin a water so it didn’t look so suspicious and having seen the reader on the phone most of the whole time an signing something in the folder which he guessed was for her to go back and serve more time which meant she picked the rangers over being with him
Tumblr media
(Replace the little kid with the reader and her hand wrapped around his waist more of a visual of Adam)
When Jay and Mouse went to bed and Kevin left the reader had laid down beside Adam wrapping her hand around his waist cuddled into him red in the face that easily for a momment him thinking it was a goodbye “I didn’t sign those Papers I signed papers of leave so they can’t send me another letter so go back,of course I choose you”
I don't write for Adam or do any character sibling fics, so I'm not the person to send this request to. But it seems like you've got a good chunk of it written. You should give it a try!

Hear me out love
Adam ruzek x Jay halsteads sister
Jays little sister coming back to Chicago few months after mouse helping them on a case that lead to her helping with other cases,an her and Adam becoming friends not knowing Adam started to fall in love with her seeing her being the only girl in the station to knock Jay on his ass ever and you and mouse seeming inseparable being at mollys after a case telling the reader how he feels about her and how he is in love with her seemingly always watching every little thing she does which he hasn’t felt with someone before in quite exactly that way an him ending up telling void because they have been working together and void tells him he can’t do anything about his feelings public wise
Tumblr media
An there being a case void was saying only Jay and noise and the reader could go in on until they ask for back up because it was a case about ex military people who were acting out an leaving bombs places or was picking targets and killing at random and didn’t want a huge audience until they knew more and the 3 of them knew them more then anyone else sense they served with them
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hours going by am while everyone’s in the office void puts a call on speaker of a older guys voice telling Jay to talk who wasn’t listening at first before saying don’t listen to any of this guys bullshit lies then hearing that the guy punched Jay before the call ended and them getting pictures of mouse tired up and a picture of Jay tied up bleeding from his forehead and shoulder but being concerned there was nothing on the reader yet.
She left the rangers last which she knew what was running through their minds when they were thinking it so they were chasing her through the forrest shortly later Adam coming into the room seeing void playing a video of the reader aka jays little sister on the ground with her hands up panic fully set in on her face seeing who the people was trying to talk them out of it as they shoved her down taking her gun “you don’t have to do this alright your not there anymore,they can’t hurt you nobody wants to hurt you alright just tell me where mouse and Ricky are” seeming to confused everyone but picking up Ricky meant Jay being a nickname Jay had in the rangers as the person yelled at her to shut up calling her bullseye before the reader could turn all the way trying to take the gun from the person the video caught that they had shot her but not once but four times an before the video ended blood was looking over her shirt quickly.
Tumblr media
Everyone seeming to be okay until Adam showed up at the hospital seeing mouse sleeping on the floor and Jay holding the readers hand not wanting to move a inch while their other brother Will was trying to tell him that he was gonna need to let go an he kept just saying no she’s been through worse we ain’t losing our baby sister to those guys who are poor excuses of rangers.
Tumblr media
Adam being the last to hear she was even okay and out of the hospital an hun going by her house an she seemed okay walking around an smiled seeing him surpised “well ain’t I lucky getting to see ruzek,someone gets shot an you guys really act like it’s the end of the world” hugging him seeing the worry in his face “I’m fine Adam really don’t ever think a bullet is gonna kill me” while cupping his face so he would stay looking at her
And they end up together maybe
You’ve basically written the fic!! Write it out fully and share it, it’s such a good idea!

Jay - Okay, so, outside of the Taliban, there aren't many
people who would use this exact recipe to make a sticky bomb. One of them is Elliot Knox The other one is me. Knox and I did two tours together in Afghanistan. He was EOD. His job was to disable and defeat enemy IEDs. We hit it off at first. We're both from Chicago, and I thought he was a good guy.
Voight - And then?
Jay - Turned out, not a good guy.
2-
Jay - Yeah, actually, I've been to this group a few times. When I first got home. I don't know why I stopped coming. Welcome back then.
Kim - That true? Jay really used to come here?
Hailey - I don't know. There he is. There's Knox.
Knox - Halstead, it's Knox.
Jay - Knox? Dude, small world.
Knox - Hey, bro, if you want me to split, I can because I'm here all the time, so.
Jay - No, no, we're good. I got past that a long time ago. It's great to see you, man.
Knox - Thanks, yeah, uh, sit over here. Yo, this is Ricky Halstead. I haven't seen this dude in forever and a day. But no finer man to have next to you in the sandbox.
Kim - Ricky? Knox just called him Ricky Halstead, right?
Hailey - Yeah, he did.
Knox - What's that about?
Hailey - I have no idea.
- Couple old buddies find each other in here. you want to share?
Knox - Well, Ricky and I did two spins together.
Jay - Kunar, Warsaj Kalay, up and down the Korangal Valley.
Knox - And that... that's the valley of death. And that's, you know, you know. I got back from that so messed up I couldn't eat spaghetti. 'Cause the noodles and the red sauce looked like guts, you know, and I wasn't alone. Most of our guys got... got pretty messed up. Everybody except Ricky. And I mean, we were getting these firefights, like... like, two, three a day, RPGs flying in, and Halstead is just... I used to think it's why this guy became a sniper. Man, he doesn't have the same heart rate as us mere mortals, you know Same body temp. Dude's... guy's like a reptile. I mean it.
