Summary
Ok folks we know Gwen did Upstead and Halstead fans dirty. She mentioned in interviews that she sees Jay and Hailey's paths crossing again sometime down the line.
So here is my take, inspired by many other fanfics that used this hook to explain Jay Halstead's seemingly strange disappearance. We know that something integral was missing from how things went down on seasons 10 and 11 on Chicago PD - that something was the core of what made Jay Halstead mean something so profound to his team, to his wife, and to us the fans.
So let's fix this mess in an honest and brutal way, shall we?
--------------------
Hailey moved to DC and embarked on a successful career with the DEA in Northern Virginia. She built a new and stable life for herself. This story takes us into Hailey's world 5 years later after leaving Chicago in Season 11.What does it mean to unsuccessfully bury an unrequited dream? What does it mean to face the ramifications of possibly fulfilling it?
Some things are bigger than us. Giddy up, here we go!
“Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird,
That cannot fly.”
