   ( . . . )    @x59686 gets a silly little canon event ft. @respondsfirst

ruzek and burgess were the only two left in intelligence that morning. atwater and upton were undercover, halstead and lindsay took mouse to follow up on a lead, decotis was on breakfast duty for platt, the dawsons were . . . well, adam didn't really know what those two were doing. the urge to makeout with his fiancé was strong, but he had too much respect for the intelligence unit for that. so he placed his hand on kim's knee instead. "hey," he said, pulling her out of that pretty little head of hers with a kiss on the cheek. "as soon as al gets here, we'll head out."

   ( . . . )   alvin meeting baby alvin ( @respondsfirst )

this was the best day of ruzek's life. and—  okay, look. yes. the day he got to marry the love of his life? was the best day of his life. before that day. and before that, the day alvin plucked adam out of the academy and recruited him to intelligence was the best day of his life. but nothing would ever beat the day he watched his incredible wife give birth to the most beautiful, perfect baby boy. kim did so good too, and adam was so freaking proud of her. he was right there with her the whole time, holding her hand, keeping her hair out of her face, rubbing her back, being for her in every way she needed him to be. there was nowhere else adam would be that day other than in that hospital room. and his father figure was right there with him the whole time. well, not actually there in the room the whole time. but ruzek knew that olinsky and platt never left the hospital. and they had the whole intelligence family out in the waiting room standing by to meet the best baby in the whole world. but they had to wait. because first, he had to meet one of the most important people in his life. his grandpa olinsky.

he cradled the perfect baby in his arms, having just moved from where he had been sitting on the bed, holding the baby with kim. they had an entire conversation without saying a word, they were so in sync that they could talk with just their eyes. one look and they knew it was time for the name reveal. so he stepped toward olinsky with a crooked little smile on his mouth. “do you want to hold baby alvin?” he asked olinsky. not ‘do you want to hold the baby, alvin.’ there was no 'the' before 'baby.' and there was no comma between baby and alvin. because he wasn’t asking if alvin wanted to hold 'the baby.' he was asking if olinsky wanted to hold baby alvin. he was asking if alvin wanted to hold his namesake.

Chicago PD: 8.09 “Impossible Dream”

[x59054]

RUZWATER IN CHICAGO PD 9.02

[x59054]

the instinct was there, to just pick kim up and sit down on the bench with her in his lap, face buried in the familiar scent of her shampoo that smelled more like home than any apartment or house ever had, even more than the intelligence unit if he was being honest. the question didn't register at first, like those five words were spoken in a language he didn't understand. "still want to what?" he whispered back in confusion, shaking his head. then she said more, and his heart sunk. "darlin," he breathed out the word so quiet it was barely even audible. "are you askin' if i still want to marry you?" he didn't know what he had done to make her question that, but clearly he fucked something up. he knew he was lost in his own little world with everything going on, but he didn't think it was that bad.

god, she couldn't even look at him. this was bad. he really fucked up, didn't he? but he still didn't know when or how or why. "the trailer? what?" he was even more confused, and panic was filling his veins with ice. "darlin'," he said again, a little louder this time, a little more steady even though he felt like the floor was giving out beneath his feet. when he heard that little sniffle, he caught her chin between his thumb and forefinger and tilted her head up. and before anything else, he captured her mouth in the softest little kiss. then he followed it with more kisses all over her face, kissing away each tear that fell. "listen — i don't know what this is about, but if you're having second thoughts, baby . . . can we like. talk about this? tell me what i did — tell me what i need to do." he searched his eyes and found nothing but pain staring back at him. "hey— hey. i love you. i love you" he didn't kiss her again, instead he pulled her into the type of bear hug he saved just for her.

those weren't the words she wanted to hear. maybe they should've been. she doesn't want to believe roman. her smile drops when he agrees, but she grabs onto his arms when he drops that gentle kiss to her forehead, with a promise of forever. "you still want to, right?" her voice comes out small. tiny and barely there, but loud enough for the two of them. kim doesn't tilt her head up to meet his eyes. she just stares into his chest, fingers cling to his arms - holding on for dear life. "if you don't i mean, with everything going on.. it's totally understandable." and yeah, she was trying to eat herself - take back that stupid test.

tears start to pool in her eyes ( she can't hide from adam ruzek ) she never had that superpower, and it wasn't one she wanted to learn how to obtain. "is it just about the trailer?" she blurts out, not realizing that adam most likely didn't get the reference. she needs the truth. he's her best friend, and she wasn't about to just.. give up. not unless he wants her to. then she would let him go, and she would watch him take her heart with him for good. sniffling - realizing that gave her crying away.

hey — about the wedding. it didn't matter how bad adam's day was or what he was going through. the wedding, his fiancée, was the only thing that could bring a smile to his face. "yeah, about the wedding." he started to move toward her, hand outstretched and ready to find her hip and draw her in closer, but it fell short and dropped to his side instead, adam tilting his head to look at the love of his life. "push it?" oh. oh. she made some good points. they could save more. was that what this was about? did she want a bigger wedding? ruzek would give her whatever she wanted. even if what she wanted was more time.

if he wasn't so lost in his own mind about everything happening in his own life ( wondering if he was still going to be employed by the chicago police department by the end of the week ) he would have looked at his girl—  really looked at her, and he would have seen that the smile didn't quite reach her eyes. that something was bothering her. he didn't want her to borrow his trouble so he was trying to keep most of his own worries to himself. at least until he had more definitive answers about his future. she deserved to know though. because his future was her future too. "okay, darlin'. yeah. whatever you want," he agreed, finally closing the gap between them and dropping a lingering kiss to her forehead. "we have forever.

adam ruzek ( @x59054 ) : kim and adam talk about 'the push test'.

he'd been engaged before. so what, right? but he'd been engaged twice and he hadn't told her about the first time. her stomach was twisting for the whole shift - so she'd mentioned it to roman. to see if he knew something, maybe just to speak her thoughts out loud, so they don't gnaw at her heart. but what he suggests and tells her just confuses her more. 'some guys like the trailer more than the movie' but that didn't sound like adam. adam loves her. he wouldn't just propose to her just to propose. just for the title. but then roman suggest something he called the 'push' test. if adam agreed to push the wedding - he wasn't all that invested in getting married. she chewed on the idea the whole damn day. and when he meets her in the locker room ...

"hey - about the wedding," she sees his smile, and she really doesn't know why she keeps going. that smile should've told her all. "what do you say we push it? save up some more, just like.. to get everything ready?" tilting her head with a smile, but it's one that doesn't reach her eyes. she doesn't want to have this talk. she wants to kiss her fiancé. she wants to climb into those big arms for a hug after a long day of feeling insecure. she wants to go home and eat bad takeout. watching him with so much anxiety that she can barely stand still on her feet.

the officer reached for her hand. "paperwork, check." he drew a checkmark shape on her hand with his finger. "witness statements," he stepped closer, giving her a once over, corner of his mouth lifted in a smirk. "check." hands found the doctor's waist and pulled her closer. "private custody? don't mind if i do." he winked, then tossed her over his shoulder like she weighed nothing.

❝ Is that your official report,  officer,  because I’m going to need paperwork,  witness statements,  a full reenactment,   &  maybe take the suspect into private custody for questioning. ❞

i just think. dad ruz. that is all.

[x59054]

it started as something akin to a joke. they started talking about a tattoo buck saw on a job. then they started talking about tattoos in general. one thing lead to another and one of them, ruz probably, joked, "we should get matching tattoos." but he wasn't really joking at all. because that was exactly the type of mischief that double trouble would get into. he had been scrolling the internet for tattoo ideas for a while. general tattoos first, then he fell down the rabbit hole that was matching tattoos. it was the easiest thing he ever asked someone to do with him.

he knew what they were getting as soon as he saw the little aliens, almost scrolled past it but had to go back to the image. it was perfect. he sipped on his own coffee, popping a whole mini muffin into his mouth. "yeah, really. i mean, why not?" he asked with a mouth full of muffin and a shrug. he picked up the phone and grinned so big at the image. "yeah. tonight. if that boyfriend of yours will let me steal you for one night. he needs to learn how to share," he teased with a scoff.

he  was  excited.  more  than  excited  ──   he  was  shaking  with  anticipation  in  the  middle  of  his  kitchen,  hands  coming  to  cup  a  mug  of  coffee  like  it  would  be  the  thing  to  ground  him.  conversations  like  the  one  he  was  in  the  middle  of  happened  in  the  hypothetical.  someday,  somewhere,  somehow.  never  an  immediate  yes  nor  a  date  set  because  that  was  all  it  was  ──   the  ramblings  of  a  man  who'd  eagerly  jump  at  the  chance  to  be  connected  to  someone  no  matter  the  distance.

"  wait,  really  ?  "  he  chirped,  foot  coming  to  kick  the  fridge  door  shut  a  bit  harder  than  intended.  @x59054  had  his  attention  ...  all  of  it.  &  before  he  could  change  his  mind  he  pressed  forward,  sliding  the  other's  phone  across the island  with  image  of  proposed  ink  still  illuminated  on  screen.  "  like...  tonight  ?  you're  serious  ?  "

[x59054]

one time someone said they were having twins and ruz had a horrified look on his face before he said “you’re going to be pregnant for 18 months???!”

[x59054]

hand moved to rub at the scruff on adam's face as he narrowly avoided saying something stupid like 'yeah, it was your bad.' because really, it was ruzek's bad. or ruzek's good. he had no regrets about kissing halstead, even if it was a one time thing. but god, he hoped it wasn't a one time thing. because he could still feel the ghost of jay's lips on his own, long after the kiss was over. so he dragged his hand over his own mouth like that could make that feeling linger a little bit longer, hold it in place. fingers dragged back over his lips before he finally dropped his hand. "i'm not sure of the protocol," he quipped back. "must have missed that in the 'kissing your partner for dummies' manual i checked out of the library last week." they weren't partners, not really. olinsky rarely paired the two of them together. but calling him adam's 'coworker' wasn't enough.

it wasn't until arms folded over jay's chest that he realized he was shirtless and fuck, that wasn't helping him focus on the conversation they were trying to have without really saying anything. eyes dropped, tracing every hard line of halstead's body before they came back up to meet his gaze again. that was his safe space, jay's eyes. like a lighthouse calling him home. he always searched for ocean blues after shit got real at work. a single second of eye contact with jay reminded him how to breathe, even on the harder days on the job. made him feel like he wasn't alone.

a low chuckle escaped him as head shook in amusement. "i'll remember to say hi first before i kiss you next time." there was a teasing lilt to his voice, but he wasn't joking. he was testing the water, searching halstead's eyes for any type of reaction. ruzek started to shrug, but before his shoulders could fall again, he was being pulled toward jay and . . . in for a kiss. that jay initiated this time, and adam didn't stop. he lifted a hand to cup halstead's face so he could deepen the kiss while his other hand blindly moved behind him to push the door closed and lock it. click. he smiled against jay's mouth. "i could be your midnight kisser if that's what you want babe."

even in the wake of imposed distance , the kiss lingered like the last note of a song : suspended in short - lived silence , waiting for the following notes in the making of a new melody . one that didn't wait to reach for his ears , adam's voice carrying its natural levity despite the situation still following upon the threads of the unknown ― clouded still on whether they'd crossed a line or found something they weren't meant to touch . jay's lips still tingled when they parted in faint disbelief , brows moving skyward for a second . ❛   not the reaction you were - ... ok , i'm sorry , my bad . what's the protocol for when someone kisses you out of the blue ?   ❜

arms then were crossed before bare chest , attention locked upon the other man ― clinging to details to fill the blanks on all questions still biting at the detective's mind : was it a joke still ? or was ruzek truly reaching for something else ? late night texts & flirty jokes offering little to settle doubts lost in a world now tilted . yet , jay did nothing to reestablish distance once adam took a step towards him .

smile was answered with a sigh , and the way gaze moved to lips he had against his but a moment ago . & regardless of distance , kiss was heavy in his mind ― memory being pressed like a gold leaf against halstead's every thought . ❛   it's a little late for ' hi ' now , ruzek . you know , people normally start with that .   ❜ at odds with words , his voice would carry no tones in acrimony ― but in truth veiled a brief hint of amusement , for all the bite back didn't mean he disapproved what had happened ― and was still to take place . ❛   go ? so you came all the way here for just this ? like some sort of ... midnight kisser or something ? just ... just come in , adam .   ❜ another sigh , preceding the moment where detective reached for officer's shirt to pull him close enough to press his lips against his once more .
