Dorian was attempting to be friendly, it had been suggested that a friendly drink after work might be good with a few of the guys on the team that had the night off but when it was suggested that they move on to a few other bars. Dorian found the atmosphere at Molly’s a little better than the strobe lights and screaming music of a few of the places that were mentioned. Instead Dorian sat the bar, ordering another beer to go with the two he had already partaken of as he passed the bottles back over the bar.

If anything he had been taught how to clean up after himself as he cleared the table that the group had been sat at. Instead of heading back there he took up a stool at the bar, happily holding his beer as he watched and listened to the goings on there. It was easier to peer in on a world than be part of it, he had told himself for years, that was the way to go until he was forty something and an uncle and god father to a few kids of military friends.

Then looking back all of those missed moments and his three date rule, it seemed ridiculous until he knew something bad would happen and then he would be proven right. At least he had the beer he thought as he was sure in twenty years he would be classed as too old for life and be sat in a deck chair on the beach maybe playing chess and complaining about all the ‘young kids’ these days. Yes he had the rest of his life mapped out in its entirety he told himself taking a drink from the beer he held, amusing himself with listening to the world around him.

[attr="class","Erinnert"]Erin was in the bar again. Despite the fact that everyone Jay knew hung out at Molly’s she was still hanging out at Molly’s. Unfortunately, most of their friends were mutual and that was that. It seemed like something was going through the place, she’d been hearing rumours of a Casey divorce coupled with her own divorce. That just seemed to be the way of things around here. She traced the rim of her glass. Erin didn’t normally order off tap but decided none alcoholic beer was going to be a thing and this time she could make an exception. Sighing, she leaned against the bar counter after taking a sip of her fake beer and setting it down.

She was doing everything in her power so as not to get mixed up in conversation with people about her personal life, and to keep Hank from killing just about anyone who looked at her at this point. To be frank, she could use some company. Though everyone always seemed to have an ulterior motive. Life and her job had taught her that. Erin added a bit to her tab as a tip for Herman. Though, she wasn’t finished with her beer. It was her way of stopping herself from drinking too much more. A closed tab was an indication to her friends to not drink anymore. She was already a few beers down and that last thing she wanted was a lecture from Hank.

Erin was trying not to head back down the same path she’d gone when she lost Nadia, but it was hard not to sometimes. Her marriage failed and she blamed herself. Her work was falling apart and she had no one to blame but herself. Yeah, just another day in the life of Erin Lindsay. Jay had decided that her being six months into a pregnancy with his kid was no reason for him to stay. It was oddly annoying.

Surveillance had been his game in the military, he was good at it too but now he was out there were a few traits he found tough to just turn off. Watching a room for one, yes he was out trying to have an enjoyable night but the fact that when he surveyed a room he saw all kinds of things. Those drinking to forget about the day, those with friends, the party kinds, the ones that hung around because it was a known fire-fighter bar and then there was the random woman there. The one that stuck out from the crowd.

Dorian was trying to place why she was there, for one she was drinking but it was none alcoholic which made sense as he glanced over her. Kids, everyone was having them these days he thought to himself smiling as he took a drink from his beer. Dorian waited to see the husband or boyfriend but the longer he seemed to wait, the more he saw no one of the kind. The bar staff seemed to know her but the last four guys who had gone to the bathroom had made no move to stand with her, by her or offer her a seat.

His mind was screaming at him not to get involved, not to talk or make eye contact but then an obviously pregnant woman stood at a bar not drinking. Either she was stood up, had just been dumped though she seemed remarkably calm for that or there was something he was missing. Dorian took another drink from his beer as he stood up from the bar seat before motioning toward the woman as he smiled. “Here, take a seat if you want?” He offered as he pulled his jacket off the seat and simply stood by it. Mostly so no one else could take it but then Dorian was unsure how the offer would be taken.

“It’s just a seat, figured you might want to sit down.” He added deciding that maybe he looked a little odd as he leaned against the bar sipping his beer while making sure there was enough room not to look creepy. After all it was the right thing to do he thought and besides she seemed like she needed someone to talk to and he had a whole evening of nothing whatsoever planned out. He might as well see if he could help someone out.

[attr="class","Erinnert"]Erin wasn’t even aware that anyone was watching her, for a cop that was a terrible plan. She heard a voice beside her and she turned to look. Then she pointed at her own seat on the other side of the bar. “Thanks but I’m comfortable standing.” Erin shrugged, she guessed this was what it was like. She really didn’t want to explain that her body was hurting. Getting up onto the barstool was a complicated mess.

There was a long sigh and she turned back towards the man who’d actually spoken to her. She took a sip of her beer. “What brings you here?” She could at least make conversation with him. To hell with what Hank would think later about her being in the bar and enjoying her time. She was an adult. Right now, she was still trying to figure things out and it wasn’t like she was drinking.

Dorian took a look at her own seat that was without someone on it, was that supposed to mean she was waiting for someone he wondered. Erin soon explained it as he nodded to her. “Oh sure I guess but if you need a hand I...” Reese stopped there as he realised how it might sound. “Standing is great.” He added knowing that half of the guys wives in the unit had said the same thing when they were having kids. The strange requests, the standing and strange poses and sleeping positions he wondered how anyone could do that for nine months.

Then again he never really had any of that to worry about, he needed a girlfriend or just maybe a fourth date to get that far. It ruined his three date rule but then again it had hardly served him well the last fifteen or more years. Dorian turned to drink another sip of his beer guessing that his aim for being friendly was a bust, maybe he was that guy who would serve his country, grow old not so gracefully and die alone without anyone. It was pretty much his last forty years so why not the next forty if he made it that far.

Reese turned to face Erin surprised she asked him a question as he stared for a moment. “Oh yeah here, I wasn’t really interested in hanging around at a electronic, dance vibe blaring music and shots place so figured I’d stay where things were good.” He explained as he decided to turn the same question on her. He used to do recon for a living so it hardly made sense not to ask questions. “What brings you here?” He asked deciding to lead things a little, “Waiting on your husband or boyfriend?” He added deciding it would at least shed light onto a story.

(Great post no issue at all)

[attr="class","Erinnert"]The taste of the non alcoholic beer was not as great as the real thing but she wasn't going to make that mistake twice. She'd been caught drinking once and that had gone over like a lead balloon. Erin chuckled when he said that electronic dance clubs weren't really his thing. “This place is a second home of sorts I guess.” She knew that Hermann and the others looked out for her, as long as she didn't have to run into Jay here.

When he mentioned husband she shook her head no. “Kind of hoping the ex husband doesn't show up; but I don't want to talk about it.” Oh there was all kinds of reasons that she didn't want to talk about it. In fact, she wasn't even sure why it was that he'd really left. She was still thinking about her job offers, both lucrative. It would get her away from Jay, it got her away from having to run into her ex husband and partner at work everyday and even though she would be behind a desk right now there, she knew she would be back in the field soon enough.

Erin stood next to the bar, trying to be friendly. “Chin up Erin. You are going to love your new job once you get out behind the desk. Sometimes a fresh start is a good thing.” Of course that would be Hermann's advice. Erin stared at him a minute. “Thanks Hermann.” She really didn't know what else to say to the man. Though she turned back in Dorian's direction and gave him one of those apologetic looks, she'd totally forgotten what she was going to say..

A home, it was what he was looking for in Chicago and if that came by way of a bar. Dorian would take it with both hands, “It’s a nice home to have, seems to be a good place so far. Unless they do electronic dance nights... then not so much.” He joked trying to lighten the mood a little. For two people standing at a bar calling it home, was there even a word for a night like that? Still the last thing on his mind was an ex, she was way back in Florida, or California or wherever his last post of duty had been.

Chicago was his clean slate at least he hoped it would be. “Hey ex husband, no need to say more. Those two words can explain a lot about things in general. Just in case he does and you want to go, if you’d like some company on a walk or something, just let me know. It’d give me something to do with my evening.” Dorian said smiling for a moment, ex anything pretty much said all he needed to know though he had to wonder about the baby. He was an information guy, he searched, he looked, he saw things to make a plan. Information used to be the game he played, watching out for this route and that, where people were what they did. It came with questions usually though when someone said not to talk about it.

He knew when to shut up about the subject. Hearing the bar tender talk to Erin about the new job Dorian tried not to listen in too much but the temptation was too great. Seeing the apologetic look Dorian returned her smile with a warm friendly one, “Hey, congratulations on the new job.” He added, “So I take it you’re on reduced duty for whatever it is. So what is it that gets you out for behind the desk?” Dorian asked deciding just to be curious.

“Me, I hate being stuck behind a desk but you know, sometimes I’ve got to be.” He said as really his job depended a lot on what Vanessa was doing on the day. It was partial waiting, walking, jumping when asked and trying not to lose the most important person in the room.

[attr="class","Erinnert"]Erin chuckled. "You must accompany people on their day to day walks to ask that so boldly." She was teasing but he'd made her at least crack a small smile. Though she didn't think more of the conversation that was until he pressed it. Great, she was going to have to entertain the conversation now because he had overheard Hermann. Thanks Hermann.

"Turned in my local badge for a federal one." Erin couldn't confide exactly but she took out her CPD badge and showed him. Though she didn't explain it was a job offer and one that got her away from her ex. She wasn't exactly sure Hank would be thrilled with the acceptance but whatever works. But that was all information that Dorian didn't need to know.

"Here I took you for a paper pusher." She was teasing and it was evident. Though to be honest she had no idea what he was on about. Though if she would have thought about things earlier she would have pegged him for a fed.

Reese chuckled and nodded at her response seeing the smile she cracked, well he was getting somewhere he thought as he grinned right back at her. “Sure I do, walking is a thing I do a lot of. There’s the mail guy I walk down the stairs of my building if I leave at a certain time. The kid I pass if I work a later shift on his way to school, the woman at the coffee shop I normally bump into. I walk with lots of people day to day.” He replied a little edge of sarcasm in his tone as he grinned.

Hermann had given him something to talk about with her and so far it seemed to work in his favour. Even listening to her talk about swapping a local badge for a federal one he had to admit that was impressive in his book. Taking a look at her CPD badge, it was something he tended not to see much of really. He tried to stay off the radar of cops in general and his work was more protection than the rules of the city. “Wow, you’re turning in the piece of silver for gold huh. Nice upgrade just make sure those federal guys know whose boss.” Reese added figuring that Erin seemed the type to take no nonsense from them.

Dorian laughed at her evident teasing, she had a sense of humour too which was always a good sign. “Sure, I push papers all day long. It is a secret dream of mine for years to be the ultimate office paper pusher.” He teased back lightly, “I figured you’d be an accountant or a teacher. Never figured you for a Federal badge holder unless you’re about to become an IRS agent.” He added smirking lightly.

[attr="class","Erinnert"]She'd clearly struck a nerve, she could tell by the sarcasm in his voice. Though it wasn't something she hadn't handled with people before so she just kind of let him talk and then roll off of. There was nothing worse than getting caught on the wrong end of a conversation. Maybe he didn't really want to go walking. "Don't worry about it. I can wait a bit to wander the city streets." Not that wandering the streets was a smart idea.

Erin rolled her eyes when he said that she needed to take no crap. "Do I really look like I let anyone run the show?" Erin questioned. Though she'd go from people knowing who she was to being the lowest man on the totem pole. Though she was ready to be out from under her dad's wings and needed to be away from Jay, she wasn't so sure about the job in general but she wasn't about to admit it.

There was a small chuckle. "Well if you don't push papers, then what do you do to pass the time at work?" She inquired. When he mentioned IRS she couldn't help but let out a snort. "You spelled FBI wrong." She mentioned sticking out her tongue.

He raised his brow a little for a moment when she mentioned wondering the city streets. “So is that something you do often or only tonight?” Dorian asked smiling, “Because wondering the streets isn’t a very safe idea. Not that I would ever presume you had no idea about that but if you wanted to wonder around, I’d be more than happy to walk with you. Just don’t break into a run or I might not be able to keep up.” He joked smiling, glad for someone to talk to that night. It certainly beat the alternative of drinking alone or suffering the techno beats of a club.

Dorian glanced over Erin for a moment thoughtfully, “Hmm well.” He paused for again letting his eyes wonder over her before smirking, “No it seems to me you would be the one running it but unlike most guys, I know I can be wrong.” Dorian seriously doubted it but taking on a new job, it was tough going at times. He knew moving from the place he knew best, the military taught him, knew how he thought so well that he never had to explain things unless the brass was involved. Protection detail was different, he had a partner he trusted and his boss was great but he was unknown.

It worked for him in a way but on the flip side of that, he had to explain what he thought and why in more detail than he ever did before. “Oh you know a little bit of this, a little bit of that.” He replied smiling, “Mainly walking around and sitting down if I’m honest, with a lunch break in between times.” So it was a bare outline of his job, one he decided was best not to talk too much about. After all who was to say this was an ordinary meeting of two people and not by design, yes he thought a lot about things but Dorian was that guy. The guy that watched, the one who surveyed things to know all there was to know about them.

Sure it hardly seemed like a set up but then, he had said it aloud before. He was hardly infallible. Laughing as Erin stuck her tongue out, “Oh my apologies, Miss FBI.” He teased, “You federal folks are always so uptight about your letters being the right way around. I guess that’s the price to pay for swapping silver for gold.” He added as he stuck his tongue back out at her.

[attr="class","Erinnert"]Erin gave him a look when he told her about wandering the streets. “I grew up in Chicago. I’m not afraid of what the night life brings.” Though Erin had to worry about the baby too. She loathed Jay right about now. To be honest, she wasn’t sure how Hank hadn’t put the man six feet under for this. Then again, time would tell.

The man was being rather secretive about what he did. Erin tried to be but Hermann had blown that one right out of the water. Was he just being secretive because of a security question or was this person just sketchier than she first thought. Erin’s brain was going a mile a minute.

Erin just ignored the sarcasm laced in the tones. IRS and FBI weren’t even close. She’d have been less offended if he’d grabbed something closer out of the alphabet soup. “You and my dad would get along well. Both of you seem to hate the feds.” She pointed out shaking her head as she got up and tossed her payment on the table with her stuff. “Thanks Hermann; I’ll see you later.” She waved at him before turning her attention back to where she was going to walk.

Dorian grinned and nodded, “Okay then, and consider me told.” He stated though the fact she was pregnant, visibly so made him worry about the Chicago night life. Dorian had known a lot of night life and he had to say what he had found in life, it was hardly the good side to despite her insistence of growing up there. There was not a chance he was letting her wonder around the city alone. Whoever the father was, was a certain idiot in his mind for letting it happen.

Secretive was his way of things, he had a name that hardly belonged, a job that required discretion and talking about it. No he knew better though it never really helped with what do you do for a job question. Women knew a liar and Dorian never lied he just, muddied the water a little. He walked a lot and did a few others things too which was about all people needed to know in his mind.

Reese laughed as he nodded, “I don’t hate all feds, just certain ones but you know. A few bad eggs can never spoil the whole thing right.” He added wondering what her father had against the feds. Beyond the three letters and the horrid yellow he guessed he could get past a lot but then there was a lot they had taken from his family too. Dorian left his cash on the bar smiling at Hermann as he followed Erin.

“Listen I’m not stalking you but I’m not letting you walk around the city alone at this time of night. So I can either get you a cab or walk you to wherever you want to go.” Reese said being deadly serious about that. “If anything happened to the pregnant lady, I’m the first one they kill. Trust me, seen the movie.” Reese joked though it was more about knowing she was back safe wherever she wanted to be. He knew she was out on her own and that was a lot for any woman on a night out. “Besides, I guard people for a living so I can guard you too.” He admitted figuring it was hardly giving too much away.
