"You know you aren't how I expected Danny's sister to be." Kono said watching the younger Williams sibling leaning against the computer desk. "What do you mean?" Emily asked turning to look at her, "I am not as uptight as he is. Really none of us are. Danny has always been a cop since day one." "He never handcuffed you to anything did?" Steve asked. "No, I wasn't as slow as Matt was at getting away. And really Danny was tasked with watching me a lot." She answered pushing her hair behind her ears, "he kept me out of a lot of trouble." "You trouble? I don't see it." Chin-Ho Kelly commented as he tapped a couple of things on the touch screen.
Emily laughed softly, "I wasn't. Not until I became a teenager and figured out the train schedule to go from Newark to Manhattan. Then that's when the trouble started." "I had to go pick her up from Manhattan south one night when she and a friend got into a scuffle with another group of girls." Danny said as he came out of his office rolling up his sleeves, "and the friend was the police commissioner's granddaughter." "And that's why we didn't get into too much trouble." She grinned, "and you liked Libby. Said she was a good influence on me." "Yeah until she introduced you to that punk." "Danno. Please don't start." "Come on Emily, why don't I show you around the palace." Kono said moving away from the table, things were getting way too tense in there and they didn't need that on top of the case they were working. "Yeah okay. It was nice to meet you Chin." The older cop tilted his head in her direction not taking his eyes off of the information.
"Who is the guy that you two were talking about?" The new cop had waited to ask the question until they were well out of ear shot of the rest of the team. "My boyfriend Ryan, Libby, my friend, introduced us at a party she and her ex husband had. He was great when we first started dating. Even great when he met the family." "But?" "But he changed, Michael, Libby's husband was too, they started dealing drugs and becoming more." Emily chewed on her bottom lip trying to find the right word, "controlling. They saw danger behind every door. Danny and Libby's family I would expect it from because of the cop spidey sense. But not Ryan and Mike." Kono stopped their trek in a quiet area so they wouldn't be overheard.
Emily wanted to get this off of her chest, she needed someone to know what was going on. And even though she just met Kono, she felt like she could trust her.
"The week before Mattie called me to come out here with him, we got mugged. We were coming off the subway going towards Saint Vincent's hospital, he was walking me to work actually, him and Michael both. I thought it was sweet but they were really going to do a deal. And this group of guys came out of nowhere. And held a gun to my head and robbed them. When we called the cops they arrested them. As far as I know they are both still in jail. Either Libby and I bailed them out."
Kono nodded her head, "I think you need to let Danny know what happened." "No way, he will blow his lid and order me not to go back to Brooklyn and then he would handcuff me to something." She frowned watching her new friend. "Really Kono. It will be fine. Everything will be forgotten when I go back home anyways."
Still frowning she nodded her head as Danny and Steve came out of the building. "Kono, we got to go." Danny said glancing at his sister. "I am going to charge a massage to Matt's credit card. See you guys later." Emily said waving her hand before going over to where Matt's rental car was parked at.
The key was to make herself relax and that was the last thing she thought she could do. She was worried about Matt, worried about Ryan. Worried about everyone but herself and that was something she needed to work on.
Maybe just maybe this was something she could work on here.
Maybe
