Change (A Connor x Reader story based on Detroit Become Human)

Chapter Nine

"I should have been there with you..." she muttered as she leaned back on the wall and Connor's LED turned to yellow.

"There was a risk that the deviant would have attacked you... I can't... I won't let that happen."

Connor noticed that when Y/n looked back at him her pupils dilated again, he wanted to ignore it but every time he looked at her he seemed to notice more and more things about her that he makes sure he remembers.

"Alright, we're done here. You two ready to go?" Hank's voice cut through as he approached them and Y/n stood up straight.

Connor saw Y/n hesitate for a bit but she nodded and gave Hank a smile.

"Yep. Just waiting for you."

"What about you, Connor? You alright?" Connor saw Hank look at him and his stained clothes.

"Yes, Lieutenant. I am in perfect working condition."

"Alright, well let's get back to the station. This is gonna be one hell of a report."

Y/n chuckled and the three of them started walking towards the elevator.

"You know, Dad... For someone who didn't like android related cases you seem to be sticking around a lot."

"Shush... Can't I help around from time to time? Besides, who knows what kind of trouble you'll get yourself into."

"Excuse me?" Y/n looked at her father in mock offense as she smiled at him.

"Yeah, Miss "this isn't your crime scene yet"... You woulda picked a fight with Perkins if you were alone."

"There's no lie there but you would have punched him too if you had the chance."

"True... I would love to sock him in the face."

Y/n laughed and Connor saw that their relationship had improved since the last time he saw them, seeing Y/n laugh and joke with her father made Connor feel what he could only think of as relief. He tried to remove the thought but, Y/n's smile and laugh stopped him from doing so.

When they got back to the station they began to fill in reports and do the paperwork for their previous investigation along with all the evidence they had collected, time had moved fast and it was now 8 PM.

"Time sure flies when you're busy," Y/n yawned and stretched her arms above her head.

"I did tell you I could have done the majority of the report."

"And I told you I somewhat like doing them."

Her playful smirk made Connor smile a bit but their little moment was cut short when Hank walked over to the two of them.

"Alright, it's getting late. Time to go."

"Okay. See you tomorrow, Con," as Y/n gets her things her father gave her a questioning look.

"Con?"

"What?" Y/n questions back as she pocketed her phone.

"Since when did you two call each other nicknames?"

"What's the big deal?"

Connor saw Y/n smirk and she glanced at him in a way that suggested that she wanted him to play along. He could just ignore it and say farewell in a professional way but, he was curious to see how the Lieutenant would react.

"Have a good night, N/n."

Y/N▲

The smile Y/n tried to suppress was interesting to see and Hank's reaction was very amusing, now he understood why Y/n wanted him to play along.
