Can I get a little something with either Kelly Severide or Matt Casey please where he sees the readers baby bump for the first time? Perhaps it becomes really prominent and he soon becomes obsessed with it
Kelly Severide- Little Baby Bump
Tumblr media
YN and Severide wanted to have a baby for a while. They knew that as soon as they got married they would try for a baby, but unfortunately for them it took a lot longer than they thought for them to conceive. A year later after trying YN started to have pregnancy symptoms like morning sickness, swollen breasts, tiredness.. etc. Of course Kelly was immediately at the nearest shop to get some pregnancy tests and got home in record time. Within a few minutes they were celebrating the fact that they were going to be parents.
That was 5 months ago and while YN has been looking a little bloated there wasn't a prominent baby bump until today. The weather in Chicago has been rather nice recently, so YN gets dressed into a maxi dress. What she doesn't realise is that the dress being tight fitting shows off her small baby bump. YN leaves her shared bedroom with Kelly and heads downstairs into the living room where Kelly is sat watching the TV
"Is it just me or is it really warm?" YN asks
"Just you babe. Well it's warm, but not..." Kelly stops when he sees his wife. Kelly looks at her little bump
"What? Is their a stain on my dress" YN goes to look down
"No it's just, your bump is showing"
"What?" Kelly takes YN's hand and guides her back upstairs to their bedroom where there is a full length mirror "Kel what are you..."
"Look" Kelly stands behind YN rubbing her little bump "our little baby is in there"
"We've waited a long time for this" a tear falls from YNs eyes.
That night YN and Kelly lay in bed together, Kelly rubbing her bump ever so slightly before sitting up and little and then leaning down
"Hey little one. Mummy and daddy can't wait to meet you. Tomorrow we're going to paint your bedroom, well I am. Mummy is going to keep out of the room because of the fumes instead she's going to sort out the millions of clothes she's bought" Kelly laughs making YN chuckles. Kelly lays back down on his back, YN turns over so that she can lay on Kelly's chest
"I love you Kel"
"I love you too" Kelly replies before they both fall asleep.
The following day Kelly, Matt and Jay go upstairs to build the baby furniture and paint the walls while YN and Gabby sort through the already washed baby clothes and the ones that need to be washed. Again the weather is warm so YN is wearing another maxi dress with the air con on. She notices Gabby shiver a little
"Sorry if it's to cold, I've just been so hot"
"No it's ok don't worry"
"I'll grab you a jacket" YN gets up smoothing down her dress
"I bet Severide is excited about being a dad"
"Very. Last night he spoke to the bump, then all night he would either be holding my bump or stroking it a little" YN grabs a jacket off the back of the dinning room chair and hands it to Gabby
"You guys are so sweet. Your going to be amazing parents. Just remember I am godmother" Gabby jokes
"Of course. You want a drink? Bet the boys will want a beer"
"I'll just have a soda"
"Ok" YN goes into her kitchen and opens up the fridge grabbing 2 sodas, one for her and one for Gabby. She then grabs 3 beers for the boys upstairs. YN takes the beers let's Gabby know her soda is in the kitchen while YN takes up 3 beers.
YN opens up the nursery room looking at the sweaty men in front of her
"Beer anyone? It's cold"
"Thank you YN" Matt walks over to her smiling
"What are you doing in here? The fumes..."
"Won't hurt for a couple of minutes. The rooms looking good" Kelly wraps his arm around YN's waist rubbing his thumb up and down against her bump slightly
"How's the clothes folding coming along?" Jay asks taking his own beer
"Ok rather be in here helping you guys, but I'm way too hot" YN chuckles "I better get back downstairs, left Gabby folding"
"We'll be down in a bit" Kelly presses his lips to YN's forehead before kneeling down to place a kiss on her bump.
Since YN started showing, Kelly has been constantly touching and kissing the bump. Basically he's obsessed. Kelly is going to be one of the most amazing dads ever.

The Right Person At The Wrong Time - Introduction
Tumblr media
Fandom: One Chicago
Pairing: Kelly Severide x Valentina Pierce (OC)
Disclaimer: This story follows most Chicago Fire storylines with my personal twist added to them. The only character belonging to me is OC Valentina Pierce.
A/N: This story will put some very beloved characters into a slightly bad light so I hope you will still enjoy it for the sake of the storyline 🤗
Next Chapter
•••
Having a rough upbringing life has given Valentina many lessons and one of them was, you can't escape your past...but she obviously didn't listen. After graduating paramedic academy and finally landing a job, she thought she finally had gotten out of the struggling state to make ends meet in which she has been trapped for most of her life...and she did for around 6 years, more or less.
After being a floater for a few months she was finally posted at Firehouse 51, she had a great partner, she was building lifetime long friendships and her relationship with her boyfriend was nothing short out of a telenovela. But oh man...she never loved anyone else the way she loved him and quite frankly he was the only man she ever fell in love with.
But disaster and chaos struck her life inevitably...growing up she and her little sister were raised by her older brother, who became overnight their legal guardian after their mother checked out on them. Long story short, her big brother got involved in some sketchy stuff in order to put food on the table and put them through school. Now many years later, after all of them successfully left that kind of life behind, they were forced to leave Chicago for their own safety.
And it was the toughest decision Valentina had to make in her entire life. That mixed with pain and irrational thinking, she decided to cut everyone off so she could move on without spiraling down into a complete wreck. Her departure has left behind a lot of unanswered questions and hurt people...and she knew that. Why? Because she never found peace in the new city that was supposed to be her new home. Chicago was home. And after "hiding" for a few years she knew she had to come back...only a whole lot of things were to change.
//
Sitting across the table from the man that first believed in her professional skills and gave her first stable job her foot was unconsciously bouncing up and down. "I'm really glad to have you back here...and I'm sure everybody else will be just as happy to see you again." "I have to thank you Chief...for basically keeping my seat warm all this time." Sharing a laugh his eyes drifted behind her, as another person was making his towards the office.
Valentina knew who it was before she ever turned around. It was the reason why she didn't go straight to the locker room and instead came into the Chief's office.
"Chief you wanted to see me?" A very familiar voice echoed through the room making Valentina get up from her seat and turn around to come face to face with him.
"Oh you have to be kidding me..." He spoke the moment he realized who was standing right in front of him.
"Severide...Valentina will be taking back her seat on Ambo. Now...I brought you in here because I need to hear from both of you that you can work together from now on...and whatever has happened in the past won't become a present issue in my firehouse." Chief Boden spoke hoping the Ambo saga will finally be over, as he has had a tough time with floaters recently.
"It's fine by me Chief." She quickly answered as she started to feel the tension already building up. "Same with me." The Lieutenant mumbled, still trying to piece together what had just happened.
"Good, you're dismissed!"
Leaving the office and walking together towards the common area, there was nothing but unpleasant silence among the two former lovers...until Valentina stepped in front of Kelly making him stop abruptly.
"I know a lot of things have happend while I've been gone and I know you're married now...but I swear I didn't come back to raise any havoc." In her mind, the sooner they got out the weird, uncomfortable conversations, the better...but she could've waited at least a bit longer.
"Not raise any havoc? Really? That doesn't sound like you..." And with that, he continued walking, leaving her just standing in the middle of the hallway.

Can u do an alcoholic dad one with Kelly ? Maybe when he turns up at the station and reader ain’t seen him in years ? Protective severide ! X
Busy call after Busy call. It was always the way. The minute someone in firehouse 51 mentioned it had been quiet on shift, the alarms didn’t stop from then on out. Every single call 61 had been either something the patient could have seen a GP for or something that became “nothing” the minute they arrived.
All she wanted to do was have a 5 minute breather - realistically a nap snuggled in Kelly’s arm but since Squad 3 were still out, she took the moment to flop back onto his bed in his officers quarters where she would hopefully get some uninterrupted time.
She had barely closed her eyes when she heard the knock on the frame of the door, looking up to see Ritter standing there looking sheepish.
“What now?” She groaned, pulling Kelly’s blankets up over her head.
“There’s someone here asking for you..” Ritter confessed, “by name..”
“For gods sake, can’t I get a few minutes rest?” She muttered as she rose from the once warm bedsheets so should definitely still be wrapped in.
She made her way onto the apparatus floor to find a man sitting at squad table. A man who definitely did not belong there.
“You need to leave..”
“Doesn’t my daughter want to play catch up with her father?” Harold replied. Harold, not her father, not her dad, just a man who chose alcohol over his family one too many times. Memories swirled around her brain of the years of verbal abuse once the alcohol worked it’s way through his system, or taking care of him at 8am when he was blackout drunk and most recently, him drinking at Molly’s and proceeding to slap her across the face and call her a whore for dating Kelly because in his eyes she ‘would always be his little girl and there’s no room for another man in her life’
“No, I want you to leave..” She announced, looking behind her to see Ritter and Mouch watching her every movement. Thankful they were nearby since Harold was irrational and unpredictable at best.
“I think you should go-“ Ritter began to speak, guilt evident in his voice that he now recognised the man as her father.
“Don’t tell me what to fucking do.” Harold snapped as his eyes darkened , “she’s my daughter and she will speak to me when I fucking say so”
“I don’t think so, Harry.” A voice came from behind them. Her breathe caught in her throat when she realised it was Kelly, followed closely by Capp, Tony and Cruz, “she has asked you to leave”
“Fuck off severide..” Harold Scoffed, “she’s my fucking daughter”
Kelly moved closer to him, motioning for the other squad 3 members to stay put. “Harold.. she doesn’t want to talk to you”
“SHES MINE.. NOT YOURS!!!” Harold yelled pushing Kelly away from him, which quickly ended in Harold being subdued by Capp and Cruz.
If she spoke, she knew tears would fall. Hell! She would likely fall to her knees and not get up. This was all too much, Harold was too much.
Kelly breathed deeply as he approached the restrained man. “I don’t know what your obsession is with her, but I know the last 4 years you’ve wanted nothing to do with her. You put her through hell growing up and taught her from an early age that men fucking suck and guess what? I’m working so hard to get her to trust me, to trust that I’ll never hurt her the way she was hurt by you”
“I did nothing-“ Harold yelled at him, before being interrupted by his own flesh and blood.
“There are things I can forgive, and theirs things I can’t. And right now, you’re the top of that list. I want you gone.. now.” Her voice shaked with each word.
“You know what? You’ll fucking regret this” Harold yelled, pulling away from the grasp the men had on him before storming out through the roller door.
Kelly snaked his arms around her waist, “I’m sorry I wasn’t here.” A kiss pressed against her forehead, “are you okay”
“I just want to sleep..” she cried into his chest.
“Come on then” Kelly whispered, leading her towards the bunk room.
‘Ambulance 61. Gunshot wound at…’

A/N: Any feedback is welcomed and appreciated :)
____________________________________________________________
Your reminiscing was cut short by the call of your name.
Done with another shift at Firehouse 51, you were in the middle of walking off the apparatus floor and making your way towards the street when you heard Kelly’s voice.
Turning, you saw him jogging to catch up to you. Smiling at his effort, you curiously said, “What’s up?”, when he reached you.
Putting his hands in the pockets of his jacket, he casually shrugged before randomly asking,
“You hungry?
Surprised, you had to pause a moment as you decided on an answer to his unsaid offer. Not minding the idea of spending a little more time with Kelly, you replied with a casual shrug of your own.
“I could eat.”
Smiling, he said, “Great! I know just the spot.”
Reaching his hand out to you, he continued. 
“Here, give me your bag. We’ll take my car.”
Loving the chivalry, you handed him your overnight bag and he led you both to where he had parked. The chivalry continued when he opened the door for you and you climbed in.
The ride to what turned out to be a diner was a short one, and before you knew it, you were sitting in a booth. After ordering your food, you both handed the waitress your menus before turning towards one another.
Kelly stared at you for a moment before looking down and chuckling to himself.
Immediately feeling self-conscious, you couldn’t help incredulously asking, “What??” while you wondered what was tickling him.
Still smiling, he simply said, “I can’t believe all I had to do was offer to feed you for you to go on a date with me.”
Feeling playful, you instantly got defensive.
“Uhhh, I don’t remember being asked out on a date. I remember being asked if I was hungry.”
Kelly couldn’t help giving a slight laugh at your statement as you continued.
“Just cause you offered to feed me, doesn’t mean this is a date.”
You finished as you took a sip of your water.
With a nod of his head, he easily conceded to your point. But after thinking on it for a moment, he decided to be a little truthful.
“Well, I wouldn’t have minded if this was a date.”
You froze at such a declaration as he locked his eyes with yours.
You remained immobile for another moment before quite seriously saying,
“Listen, Severide…”
You started, already trying to distance yourself from him.
“I meant it when I said you couldn’t handle me.”
Not one to dismiss your feelings, he put his arms on the table as he leaned in and genuinely asked,
“And why do you say that?”
But before you could answer, the waitress returned with your food and put plates down in front of you and Kelly.
“Y’all need anything else?”
You both said no while thanking her before turning back to one another.
Her interruption had given you a chance to think about what you were going to say. So when she left, you faced the Squad Lieutenant and cautiously replied to his question.
“Look, whether people know it or not, I wear my heart on my sleeve. I love deeply and I love hard. I can’t change that and I refuse to apologize for it.”
Looking off to the side, unwilling to meet his gaze, you admitted,
“I don’t do casual. I don’t do flings. I don’t even know how to. So when I say ‘You can’t handle me’, I’m just trying to save us both a lot of time and trouble.”
You glanced back up to Kelly after your little spiel and saw that his face was unreadable.
Now regretting your honesty, you began to stand up as you said,
“Maybe this was a bad idea. I’m just gonna call a car and we can pretend this never happened.”
But before you could fully exit the booth, Kelly quickly reached over to grab your hand and stopped you.
Looking back at him as he held your hand with that still unreadable expression on his face, you wondered what more possibly needed to be discussed.
Suffice to say, you were caught off guard when he quietly, but confidently said to you,
“None of that is a dealbreaker for me.”
In a state of disbelief, you slowly sat back down.
You both sort of stared at one another as you figured out what to say next.
You were only trying to fill the silence when you asked,
“So what now?”
Therefore, you weren’t really expecting any real kind of answer. However, the man sitting across from you was nothing if not full of surprises.
“Well, for starters, you could go back to calling me ‘Kelly’,” he said with a teasing smile.
And with your accompanying laugh at his attempt at humor, the atmosphere instantly went from serious to lighthearted again.  
Your mood was so lifted that you couldn’t help teasing back.
“I don’t know,” you said shrugging, “‘Serveride’ has a nice ring to it.”
Kelly only pretended to roll his eyes before you both unanimously agreed to start eating. 
As you took your first bite, you couldn’t help looking back up at him as he began to dig in.
A small smile made its way onto your lips as you allowed your guard to come down just enough to think with hope,
“Maybe, he will be different.”
And without further hesitation, continued to eat your food.

Hey everyone!
I have decided to start writing imagines for Chicago Fire and House MD.
So if you have any requests, don’t hesitate to send me some requests for Chicago Fire or House Md or even both.
This is the only character I will write for now, and maybe in the future there will be other characters from Chicago Fire, and maybe I will write for Chicago PD.
But there is just one character from House MD and Grey’s anatomy that I will write for, and you can find it👇
Matt Casey
Kelly Severide

Fireproof - Day One
Tumblr media
 WC : 5657
As I walked up the driveway with my bag over my shoulder making the walk I’d been wanting to make for years. Not only just to be part of the firehouse but to see my brother which he had denied many times. I walked onto the apparatus floor looking about 
“Carver is it?” A man asked and I nodded 
“Rebecca Carver” I smiled holding my hand out and he shook it 
“Kelly Severide. Boden told me you’ve already had a tour and all you need to do is sign a bit of paperwork.” I nodded listening to his every words following him as he started to walk “Your turnout gear is already on the left side of Squad. I try to put everyone's out when I come in” I nodded 
“Thank you Lieutenant” I smiled as he walked into the Chief’s office 
“Ah Becca” Boden smiled and I smiled back. I try to get most people to call me Becca. I just like it better. 
“Morning Chief” I smiled and he placed some papers on his desk 
“Sign these and I’ll start my spiel” I smiled signing the papers as he started his talk. About how everyone is family and if I ever had a problem with a slight problem with anyone that I can go to him. Talking about how everything should be done by the book but not to be afraid of doing whatever is right. He then started about how I should just listen to whatever Severide says and the basic rules of the firehouse. “Well, then Becca. I’ll let you get to work” I smiled looking at Severide who nodded 
“I’ll catch up with you in a minute” I walked out and through to the locker room. I had stopped by yesterday to look around the place and meet Chief Boden without the rest of my shift being here. I waited in the locker room for Severide who smiled over as he walked in “Erm, here's a locker” He said after looking at them for a minute or two. I smiled as he handed me the roll of masking tape and a pen before walking out. I pulled a bit of tape off before putting it on the locker and writing ‘B. Carver’ on it. I looked at the lockers next to mine, Sam's and Mouch. I put my bag in before quickly getting changed before the rest of the shift walked in. The navy blue pants, the navy blue squad shirt and the squad zip up. I sat down on the bench pulling my boots on as the rest of the shift started walking in. I locked my locker up before walking out looking for Severide. 
“Lieutenant” I said walking over and he looked up 
“Call me Severide. What can I do for you?” He asked and I nodded at his first comment 
“Mind if I get myself used to your squad? I know you’ll probably have everything in a different place to where my old squad previously used to have them” I asked and he nodded
“Knock yourself out Carver I’ll call you over when the rest of this lot is here. Still too early for them” He chuckled and I smiled 
“Please call me Becca. It’s what I’ve always been called and I’d like to keep it that way” Severide nodded and I walked over to Squad. I looked through all the compartments getting myself used to where everything was even starting to test myself just to make sure I had it down. I was still doing that when I heard a voice 
“Becca?” I looked up from the compartment I had just looked into to see Sam standing next to me. I looked up at him 
“Oh hey Sam” I smiled getting up still unfortunately having to look up at him 
“What are you doing here? What happened to Squad Six?” He asked with a frown as I shut the compartment 
“Well I got transferred because Walker is a sexist fucker” I hummed 
“Language!” He exclaimed and I shrugged 
“I’m not eighteen any more Sam” Sam rolled his eyes walking off. “And even if I was eighteen. I’m still older” I reminded him and he turned around shaking his head 
“You just had to come here didn’t you? Just when things get normal for me you or Nathan have to come and force your ways into my life. You left Rebecca, not me!” 
“Oh so now it was my choice to leave was it?” I asked looking up at him and he shook his head walking off “This isn’t over Samson!” I exclaimed walking back out to the squad. I shrugged him off before climbing into the back of Squad and looking around at all the equipment in there. Memorising where everything was, was going to save time on calls and in the end save peoples lives faster. When I looked up Severide was standing at the other end of the squad. I jumped a little 
“Sorry. I’ve just put the pieces together” He said sitting down. I knew what he was talking about. 
“What gave it away?” I asked sitting opposite him 
“All of it but I’ve just had a read of your record as well” I looked down knowing that everything was unfortunately in there “What makes you think that I should trust you?” He asked 
“Look at the criminal record. I’ve served my time for that. As for the insubordination, well not my fault none of the lieutenants don’t want a woman on their teams.That’s what it’s all came down to. The fact I’m a woman and the first on Squad. If you don’t want me here I’d prefer you just tell me now so that I can look for another job without having to go through all the insubordination reports” I replied 
“Criminal record?” He exclaimed and I nodded slightly 
“I was a teenager and like I said I’ve done my time for that. I spent three years in Juvenile detention hence why Sam is so annoyed and I quote ‘Left us all alone’. They were petty crimes. Theft of food that kind of thing” I explained and he nodded 
“I want you on my team, Carver. At least for this shift. I want to see how you work before I make my mind up. I know the Lieutenants on the second shift Squad are sexist. I’ve worked with them all before and I’ve seen it first hand but there's a lot of insubordination on your record but from your Chief’s there's a lot of good things. The only way I can decide is by seeing you work. Now I get that sometimes Lieutenants and their Squad don’t agree on matters but I’ll always attempt to listen to your ideas unless it’s gonna take too long” I nodded looking at him 
“Come on. Breakfast is ready and the other three are here now” I got up with a slight nod putting everything back where I had found it. I followed him from the back of Squad over to the table 
“Cruz, Capp, Tony. This is Rebecca Carver, our newest member from today. Becca this is Harold Capp, Tony Ferraris and” I cut him off 
“Joe Cruz” I smiled as Joe gave me a hug 
“You two know each other?” He asked and I nodded 
“When I ended up on Engine Sixty-sixty, Becca was on Truck eighty-six” He briefly explained and I just left it there with a nod 
“Well I’m sure you know how well she works then” Severide nodded 
“She's great Lieutenant. You’ll love how she works” I smiled at Joe. Now he was just being nice. “Come on Becca. You want anything to eat?” He asked walking inside 
“Nah I’m good. I eat before shift” I nodded
“Forgot about that. Coffee?” He asked, turning around in the doors and I nodded following after him. He wrapped an arm around my shoulder “This is gonna be great” He cheered and I smiled, shaking my head as I walked with him. I poured myself a cup of decaffeinated coffee watching Joe fight for his breakfast. Before I knew it everyone was called into the meeting room everyone was taking their respective seats. I just hung about at the back in the corner 
“Good morning everyone. So quick briefing this morning because I know that your Lieutenants are desperate to start cleaning” There was a groan all around the room at the word cleaning. What’s wrong with cleaning? I like it “So I’m sure everyone guessed it’s cleaning day. The quicker you get started the quicker you get finished. I’d like you all to welcome the new member of Squad. Rebecca Carver. Squad opened up a fifth seat for her so please treat her like family” Suddenly all eyes were on me and it’s safe to say it was very awkward. Joe had a massive smile on his face and Sam didn’t even look at me “Alright everyone. Dismissed” Everyone slowly started leaning the meeting room with some introducing themselves as they passed. Soon it was just Sam and I left in the meeting room. 
“I’m not here because you’re here Sam. I’m here because Severide runs the best Squad in the city. Even then that’s not why I’m here. I got pink slipped by all three Lieutenant’s in my firehouse. Insubordination for running into a fire believe it or not. Not like that’s what I’m trained to do or anything” I moved sitting on the table in front of him “I didn’t leave because I wanted to. I’m not going to leave again. Not unless Severide also pink slips me then I’m well and truly out of a job” I looked down at him for once as he caught my eyes
“I might have overreacted just a little bit. But it is true. I got settled here and Nathan came and asked me for a whole load of money and I stupidly gave it to him then I get settled again and in walks Rebecca to save the day on Squad” He shook his head “Where were you when I needed someone?” He asked and I looked down at my lap 
“You know where I was and you know that you could have come and seen me Sam! You’re the only one who never did” I got up just as the bells went 
“Firehouse fifty-one, battalion twenty-five. Structure Fire 382 South Ada Street” 
I ran out to squad pulling my turnout gear on before climbing into Squad before Capp had even opened the door. Severide let out a little hum as he turned to look at me 
“Bonus points for beating Capp” I chuckled a little, pulling my tank on and checking my mask.
“Don’t get cocky out there Carver” I looked at Joe with a nod
“I’ve changed since the last time we worked together” I smiled checking I had enough air and all my tools were where I liked them as Tony started to drive. Tony soon parked outside a house and I looked out the window. A house. Fully inflamed. We all jumped out looking at Boden 
“Squad I want a primary search. As quick as you can. Truck get that roof vented” Boden ordered 
“Alright. Carver, I want you with me. Tony, Capp take the first floor. Cruz sees if Kidd needs any help if not join Carver and I on the second floor” I grabbed my halligan before walking behind Severide over to the door. “Ready Carver?” He asked and I nodded, pulling my SCBA on then my hood and helmet. Severide kicked the door in and I followed him up the stairs. 
“Fire Department” I called out as I opened a door letting Severide walk on. I searched the room, pulling out the bed and opening the closets. “Clear in here Lieutenant” I radioed to him before catching up with him as he had found people in one of the rooms. 
“Carver take the kids” He ordered and I picked the oldest up, placing them on my hip before picking up the baby in my other arm. 
“Cruz is here” I informed him nodding to Cruz as he walked in “Cruz help Severide” I told him and Severide shook his head 
“I’m okay. Help Carver” I shook my head
“I can manage these two Lieutenant. Stairs are still clear.” I replied walking out of the room and downstairs. 
“Carver is coming out” Joe radioed as I got to the front door and walked through all the smoke. As I got to the bottom of the porch stairs Sam came over taking the oldest kid from me while Violet took the baby. 
“Both found in one of the bedrooms. Severide is coming out with an adult female. Around 30. Burns on the left side of her body” I told them taking my SCBA off and moving out of the way for Joe and Severide
“Ambulance sixty-one to dispatch. I need two more ambos to my location” Brett radioed in as I walked over to Squad. Just as I pulled my tank off Severide and Joe walked out the house with the women. See I knew that stubborn ass needed help. 
“House is clear chief” Severide called over to Boden who then ordered Engine to put the fire out. I walked over to the ambo to check on the kids.
Brett looked over with a sad look and I looked down at the baby who was now intubated. I sighed walking back over to Squad. I put my tank back in its home with my mask as I looked back over at sixty-one Severide had just shut the doors and it sped off. I sighed looking back over to the house that still had smoke pouring out of it as the water removed the heat from the fire. 
“Good job in there Carver” Severide tapped my shoulder and I nodded a bit. 
“I don’t want you to think I’m emotional” I explained and he shook his head 
“If you’re not emotional at this job then that’s when I worry especially when it’s kids” I nodded a bit “Come on let’s go see if we can find out how this started” He grabbed another halligan and I did the same following him inside. I wasn’t a fan of overhaul or finding out how fires started but Severide was obviously interested in how they started. 
“It was a candle” I pointed to the starting point where the candle holder had made it through the fire and Severide nodded “If she had fallen asleep, the kid knocked it over. All possible” I shrugged and he nodded 
“Guess that didn’t help” I shook my head 
“I’ll get over it eventually. Just like everyone I have my ways of dealing with sad calls” I shrugged walking upstairs and he nodded following. 
“I walked into the bedroom picking up our halligans before turning around with Severide right behind me. I smiled a little
“Got everything?” He asked and I nodded now following him down the stairs. When we got out to squad I put the halligans back into their compartment before climbing in. 
“I think we need a trip out” Severide hummed and I looked at him. Joe raised his brows 
“Boat trip the day after tomorrow. Get to know Becca a little more” I looked at him 
“Think I’m busy” I joked 
“Mandatory Carver” I shook my head 
“Don’t worry. I have no plans ever” I shrugged as Tony reversed onto the apparatus floor. I jumped out of Squad, pulling my turnout gear off before walking into the common room. I poured myself another cup of coffee and leaned against the counter as someone stood next to me 
“Blake Gallo. Didn’t get time to talk to you before the call out” He smiled and I turned to look at him 
“Becca Carver” I nodded 
“Can I ask you a question?” He asked and I nodded 
“You just did” I joked 
“Another one” I nodded
“Go on” I smiled, turning to look at him as I took a sip of the coffee. 
“Why Squad?” He asked 
“To be honest with you. I just did the training for fun” I shrugged “Then obviously I finished the training and got offered a spot on Squad twelve I think it was. Bounced around for a while. Squad’s not a typical place for women. Landed up here and hoping I’m going to stay here for a nice little while” I explained and he nodded 
“Makes sense. I hope you’ll like it here” He walked around to the fridge and I nodded walking out to the Squad table. 
“Where should I start cleaning?” I asked Severide and he looked up 
“You want to clean?” He asked and I nodded slightly 
“I enjoy cleaning? That a problem?” I asked and he shook his head 
“Nope. I mean you can mop the apparatus floor if you want” He shrugged and I walked inside looking for the cleaning supplies. I looked up as Joe walked in 
“Joe. Where’s the cleaning supplies?” I asked and he waved me over. I followed him into a cupboard. 
“Everything is in here” I smiled with a nod. I grabbed the mop and bucket before walking into the showers and filling the bucket up with water and bleach before pushing it out to the apparatus floor. I started mopping it down 
“Hey Lieutenant” I called and he looked over “Can we move the trucks or do you want me to just work around them?” I asked
“Tony go move Squad, Capp get Herrmann, Kidd and Brett to move their trucks” I smiled in appreciation as I moved out of the way of Tony
“Yo Severide? Why are we to move?” Herrmann asked walking out of the common room 
“Becca is mopping the floors. Can’t do it with a fourteen tonne truck on top of it” He shrugged
“Why’s the new kid mopping the floors?” Kidd asked 
“Because she wanted to. I was gonna leave the cleaning to you lot” He shrugged and Kidd looked over 
“You wanted to clean?” She asked and I nodded 
“After a call like that cleaning helps me to relax” I shrugged just as the bells went yet again
“Ambulance sixty-one, truck eighty-one, squad three. Multi-vehicle crash. Highway ninety” 
“Guess cleaning will have to wait” I shoved the mop and bucket away before running over to squad. I pulled my turnout gear on before jumping in. 
“So I was just reading your record” Severide started and I looked at him
“Thought you read that already” I shrugged 
“Not your academy and squad training records” I nodded slightly 
“You got some pretty good times there Becca. Bet some of mine unfortunately” He chuckled and I smiled a little 
“Which ones Severide?” Capp asked 
“You’d like to know” Severide chuckled
“That’s why I asked” Capp shrugged and I chuckled 
“Repelling and water rescue” I replied
“How do you know Carver?” Severide questioned and I shrugged 
“After I beat them, instructors would tell me how long you went unbeaten against them.” 
“Of course he would” Severide shook his head jumping out of Squad. I climbed out and looked at the crash with a frown. Two cars. Three victims in one car and not a single person in the second car. The windscreen was smashed in the second car. I looked about with a frown. Walking over to the edge of the bridge and climbing over the railings and looking into the water “Carver, what the hell are you doing?” Severide asked through the radio. I looked back before climbing back over the railing onto the bridge as Severide stood behind me. I smiled a little sheepishly “Well?” He asked 
“I was checking if the driver of the red car wasn’t in the water. Sorry Lieutenant. I won’t do it again” I replied and he nodded slightly 
“And is the driver in the water?” He asked 
“Inconclusive” I replied 
“Then gear up” I jogged over to squad pulling my turnout jacket off. I pulled my turnout pants and my uniform quickly off before pulling the wetsuit on before jogging back over to the bridge where Joe was now set up for a water rescue. As I looked at Joe Tony and Capp were already tying me to Joe
“Be safe down there Becca” He smiled and I nodded, pulling the mask over my face and opening the valve on the tank before letting myself down into the water. 
Just another rescue. I muttered to myself. I was never allowed to do one of these before. ‘Too weak’ I was always told never mind being allowed to do one for myself. I soon spotted someone swimming over to them. It was a teenage girl. I grabbed her under the arms before tugging on my rope twice letting Joe know I had the victim. I quickly attached her to the spare rope tugging it three times to tell the boys to pull her up. I wanted to look about just in case there was someone else with her. I’d never forgive myself if there was. And I was right. I grabbed the teenage boy by the shirt, taking my rope off and securing it to him before tugging on it three times. I surfaced from the water looking up at the bridge. I could see Severide shake his head before I removed my mask 
“Another victim coming up” I shouted looking around before pointing to land where I was going to swim to. Severide shook his head as Sam appeared at the edge of the bridge 
“Carver just wait there. Rope is coming down” Severide called back down and I swam over in the direction of the rope. If I caught this then it would be a total miracle. I did have to swim over to the rope but I soon secured it to myself before giving them a nod that they could pull me back up.  I was soon being pulled back up into the air and before I knew it Severide was pulling my over the railing by my wetsuit 
“I’m okay Lieutenant” I responded and he nodded 
“Don’t ever take your line off again” He warned and I nodded 
“Sorry Lieutenant” I replied looking down. Severide walked off and I walked back to squad. I knew Sam was following me “Go do your job Sam. You can lecture me later” I replied, getting in the back and pulling the door shut behind me. I rubbed my face as I sat down on the bench and removed the wet suit. I hung it back up before grabbing a towel and quickly drying myself off. I pulled my uniform back on along with my turnout pants before stepping out of Squad. I pulled my radio over my body before walking over to Chief figuring it was best to stay out of the way. 
“That was reckless Becca and so stupid. But I have to admit it was a good save” Boden looked down at me and I looked up at him 
“Sorry Chief. I’m just going to stay out the way” I replied and he shook his head 
“Go help your team. They need it. If Severide says otherwise he’s got me to deal with” I walked back over to Severide. 
“Carver grab the other side of the backboard” He ordered and I did as told by taking the other side of the backboard so that Capp could run around the car and help from the other side. I looked into the car. It was just a young woman left inside. She couldn’t have been older than maybe twenty-five. How her life was going to change. Once she was on the backboard we quickly moved it onto the stretcher before letting the paramedics whisk her away “Carver go get a brush” I nodded walking over to Squad where Sam was standing with the brush for me. 
“Figured you’d need this.” I rolled my eyes at his petty behaviour, taking the brush and walking off. I sweeped up all the broken glass to the side of the road so that the road could get opened quicker. As Capp and Tony put all the gear away and Severide stood about supervising. Joe walked over standing next to me as I sweeped the pile as close to the side as I could 
“That was a good save. No matter how dangerous it was. Severide would have done the same thing so don’t let him or Boden or anyone else tell you otherwise Becca. We all know that you did what you had to” Capp nodded standing next to him
“Don’t beat yourself up, Carver. You saved that kid's life. We save some, we lose some. That’s part of the job unfortunately” I smiled a little leaning against the brush as the recovery truck came into sight. 
“Thanks guys” I nodded to them in appreciation before putting the brush away. I threw my turnout jacket on my seat before walking over to Severide. 
“Good save Becca. Just don’t scare us like that again please. Cruz almost dropped that kid when he realised it wasn’t you” I shrugged a little 
“Life would be boring if I didn’t scare him every so often when working with him” Severide chuckled 
“Come on then” He chuckled walking over to Squad “Let’s go squad” He called and I climbed into the back. I rested my head back against the window. Re-doing my bun as Tony drove back to the firehouse. 
“Lieutenant. We need to fuel up” Tony informed Severide who nodded
“Just do it Tony” We got to the gas station and I sat up. 
“I’ll do it” I exclaimed, getting out of Squad. I walked around and started filling Squad up. As I looked about I noticed a Chief’s buggy pull up. I smiled as my favourite Chief pulled up. Well he wasn’t exactly my chief but oh well. I walked over to his buggy “Boo” I chuckled walking up behind him
“Becs what are you doing here?” He asked looking about 
“I got transferred again. I’m with squad three” I smiled and he shook his head. In disappointment? Maybe.
“Again Becs?” He asked and I shrugged
“Hey I think Severide’s gonna keep me” I shrugged while walking backwards. 
“He better keep you. I don’t want you back” I smiled waving to him before getting back into Squad 
“You know Hawkins?” Severide asked and shrugged a little 
“Started off as partners when I used to be a paramedic. Then we dated a little. By a little I mean like a week? Maybe two? Then he became my chief. And now he’s just stuck with me” I shrugged as Joe laughed 
“Dated for four months” He laughed and I shook my head
“Hooked up for four months. Dated for two weeks” I replied and he shook his head laughing “You’re meant to be nice to me. Anyway, What’s this I hear about Mrs Cruz, baby Cruz and child Cruz?” I asked and he looked over proud 
“Chloe and I got married. Then adopted then had our own kid” I nodded listening to him “Javi we adopted after I rescued him from a fire. Brian is our own kid. Oh he’s so cute. I’ll show you pictures later” I smiled 
“Where was my invite to the wedding?” I asked dead seriously and he looked at me
“Didn’t think you’d want to come? You know. You always told me the stories” I gave him a look as if to say ‘you’re stupid’
“You’re stupid Joe Cruz” I hummed getting out of Squad as Tony parked 
“Hey that hurt” I shrugged as Sam came storming over. 
“What the hell was that Rebecca? Seriously? You just go risking your life for random teenagers? We both know you’re that stupid to do that! I don’t understand you Rebecca. You tell me that you’ve changed. That you don’t risk your life like you used to any more then you pull fucking stunts like that? In Chicago? In spring?” I shook my head as he raised his voice 
“This! This is why I got arrested. This whole. I’m better than you thing that you have going on! I tried my best to save you from Nathan. I did. I got arrested instead. I tried my best to change and not risk my life anymore but you know what. That was a teenager. With his whole life ahead of him. I was conscious. I can fucking swim Samson!” I exclaimed after pulling him onto the driveway away from the rest of the firehouse “I will always be older than you. You will always be the youngest child whether you want to be or not. I don’t care. If you’re not happy with me here then pink slip me. Get everyone involved. Do it. I dare you!” I challenged him walking away and inside the house 
“Hey Carver. Ridder cooked you want some?” Gallo asked and I shook my head walking to the bunk room. I knocked on the door to Kidds quarters who waved me in 
“Girl to girl. You care if I hide in here for a little?” I asked and she motioned to the bed for me “I’m gonna explain everything to you because Sam won’t” I replied sitting on her bunk and she nodded looking up from her paperwork 
“Oh please do. He’s harder to break than Mouch” I chuckled 
“Sam’s my little brother. He’s got this stick up his ass because I got sent to juvie after trying to save him from my other younger brother. Sam’s older brother. I’m the oldest. I think Sam thinks that I’m here to sabotage him. I’m not. This was the only firehouse I hadn’t been at. Sexist Lieutenants. I’m sure you understand that one. Anyway he also likes to think that he’s older than me and does this whole protective thing” I explained and she nodded 
“So what happened to his arm? That true?” She asked and I nodded 
“Yeah. It was about a week, maybe two before I got sent to Juvie. I was seventeen. Nate was fifteen and Sam was about nineish. I was leaving for college. I tried to steal some food for Sam. I had enough to pay for myself but I was gonna take him with me. I didn’t make it to college or manage to save Sam” I looked down playing with my hands “I failed as a sister in that respect. Nathan’s always been the golden child. Could never do anything wrong. Me on the other hand. I was disowned. I don’t know about Sam though. We’d talk a lot as we grew up and I managed to get into the academy. He wasn’t happy about it at first but we got there. I can see that Sam likes it here and if that means I’ve got to leave then I will” I added and she frowned 
“I don’t think you should leave. What are you going to do if you leave?” She asked
“I might have an in as a paramedic. Helps that the Chief really likes me” I chuckled and she shook her head with a laugh 
“Look as Sam’s Lieutenant I appreciate that whole story” She motioned with her hands and I smiled a little “But from firefighter to firefighter. Don’t give up on that Squad part. From girl to girl. You’re welcome to hide out in here any time” I smiled over to her 
“Thanks Lieutenant” I smiled 
“Call me Stella” 
“Then call me Becca” I smiled, taking my phone out of my pocket. I checked my messages “I’m gonna go get some food” I got up walking out of her quarters. I walked into the common room as Ridder held up a plate and I nodded walking over
“I don’t need to start cooking any vegan or vegetarian options do I?” He asked and I shook my head
“Just no shellfish. I’m allergic” I replied 
“Don’t worry. I can’t cook seafood” I smiled, taking the plate from him as he handed it to me.
“It’s just spaghetti bolognese. You missed the garlic bread though” 
“Don’t worry about it. Thanks Ridder” I sat down at the little circle table in the corner of the room not wanting to interrupt any conversations or sit anywhere where I wasn’t meant to. I looked up as I felt someone sit next to me. 
“So Becca can you cook?” Gallo asked 
“Do you want the firehouse standing?” I asked and he chuckled 
“I’ll take that as a no” 
“Then you’d be right,” I nodded, taking another bite. “I can bake though” I added and his head picked up. 
“Seriously? Oh you’ve got to let us try some” He replied Ridder sitting down nodding his head at the same time
“Maybe. My apartment isn’t really big enough to cook in but maybe sometime” I shrugged
“I’m going to hold you to that Carver” Severide said walking in and I nodded
“Note the fact I said. Maybe” I replied and he shrugged 
“You could bring something to the boat. Let us test your baking before the rest of the house” I chuckled a little 
“Maybe. Just maybe” I chuckled. I looked over at the clock. Thirteen hours into shift. How time goes so fast I will never know. “I’m gonna hit the beds before the bells go off again. Thanks Ridder” I got up putting my plate into the dishwasher. I walked through to the bunk room lying on an empty bunk that had no belongings next to it. I pulled my boots off before pulling the cover over myself. Scrolling on my phone until Gallo sat on the bunk next to me. 
“You picked a good bunk Carver” I chuckled, putting my phone down. “Night Becca” He smiled
“Night Gallo”

Please may I request something with Severide and pregnant!reader where he puts his hands under her belly and lifts to relieve some of the pressure on her back? Like the tiktok video
Maybe he does it at the firehouse and everyone awhs at how cute they are and what a good dad he will be
Kelly Severide- Relief
Tumblr media
Since finding out I was pregnant I've been benched. Normally I would be fighting fires with Matt as my lieutenant, but Boden has put me on paperwork duty and doing everyone's payroll. Which is kinda boring if I'm honest. I'm now 8 months pregnant and my back hurts so bad most of the time, but I'm determined to work right up until the birth. Although right now I'm rethinking that idea.
Sighing I stretch my arms over my head needing a break from sitting down. I get up and waddle to the kitchen where I find everyone
"Does anyone know if we have any pickles and chocolate?" this has been my pregnancy craving since I basically got pregnant
"Top cupboards, I'll get them down for you" Matt says walking over to me
"Thanks" I move out of the way for Matt who reaches to the top shelf for me. I take the chocolate place it in a bowl and warm it up
"Hey baby how you feeling?" Kelly walks into the kitchen from outside
"Alright. Hungry, tired, back hurts, just the usual" I sigh as the microwave beeps. I take out the now melted chocolate and dip in a pickle
"Remember when you hated pickles?" Hermann chuckles. Just as I'm about to  leave to go back to my little office Kelly stops me
"Come here. Let me help you back for a little" his arms move around my waist lifting up my bump. I let a moan out leaning back on to Kelly, relief from the extra weight I'm carrying
"Aww" I hear Gabby gasp
"Wanna carry on eating your chocolate pickles?" Kelly asks. I give him a nod before dipping another pickle in my chocolatey soup. Unfortunately my relief doesn't last to long since the alarms go. Gently Kelly lowers my bumps
"Won't be long and when I get back I'll hold the bump again"
"Thanks"
When they return Kelly comes back to me holding a bag
"What you got in there?" I ask
"More pickles and chocolate" he says getting them out and placing them on the kitchen work tops "now lean back on me again" I do as he asks and once again he lifts up my bump giving me some relief from my discomfort
"You guys are going to be the best parents" Brett gushes watching the interaction.

“Engine 51, Truck 81, Squad 3, Ambulance 61, Battalion 25,” the alarm rings out, forcing Kelly and Dani to break apart and head towards the trucks. “Sounds serious,” she comments.  
“Seriously fun,” Kelly quips. “Hey. You better bring that body of yours back in one piece, because I have got big plans for it tonight,” Dani tells him before heading to the truck, pulling her turnout pants on and climbing in the back of the truck with her jacket. “51, get me a water supply from the standpipe. Truck 81, Squad 3, I need search teams. Engine 37, get the hoses into the north stairwell. Ambulance 61, set up triage. Get ready, people. We're going to war,” Boden orders as everyone arrives and climbs out of their respective rigs. “Fire's on the 20th floor,” the building manager tells them as they walk in. “How many units on each floor, and where's your alarm panel?” Boden asks. “12. It's right over here,” the man led them over to it. “Mouch, you're on lobby control. Get the elevators down here,” Matt ordered. “You got it, Captain.”
   “Okay, fire is confined to 20 for now. We need to investigate the fire floor. Get to everybody trapped above it. I made at least four people signaling from their windows,” Boden tells the gathered firefighters. “We riding or walking?” Kelly asks. “Casey,” Boden turns to the captain. 
“Mouch, what's happening?” Matt calls into the radio. “I have control of one, two, and four, but the number three car is stopped on the 18th floor, and I can't get it moving. Can we get a look inside of that elevator?” Mouch asks. “Number three? Right here,” the building manager shows them. “The car is empty, Mouch, but keep trying,” Matt tells him. “Copy. Okay, heat is interfering with the electronics,” Mouch calls out after a few moments. “That settles it. You're climbing. To all companies, we can't trust the elevators. Use the stairs only. Stage on 19. Truck 81, give me a primary search on 20. Squad 3, take 21. Engine 37 will attack the fire. Okay, let's go, let's go, let's go!” Boden orders. “I don't mean to be in your way, Chief. I'm just here 'cause Commissioner Grissom wants me to be,” Gorsch tells Boden who glares when he almost runs into the smaller man. 
  “Extra air tanks get stashed on 19! We'll attack from the north stairs. Use the south stairs for evacuation. Hey, Chief, we're approaching the 20th floor,” Matt calls into his radio. “Go. Come on, come on, come on. Come on, Ritter, what's the hold up?” 37’s lieutenant yelled. “These threads are in bad shape, keep sticking,” the candidate tells him. “I thought I told you to clean the standpipe,” the lieutenant scolds. “I did, Lieutenant,” Ritter tells him. “Yeah, not with your hands, with a wire brush!” the lieutenant yells. “He used a brush. I saw him,” Herrmann speaks up. “All right, let me in there. I'll do it,” the lieutenant huffs “I got it. It's on,” Ritter tells him. “Well, then open the valve!” the lieutenant exclaims. “Hey, Paxson. Go easy on the kid. He's doing great,” Herrmann tries to defend the candidate. “Mind your business, Herrmann,” Paxson huffs, turning to the candidate. “Hey, put your mask on.”
  “Chief Boden!” Someone yells. “Halstead?” Boden turned, after hearing the familiar voice call out to him. “Where's the fire? What floor?” Jay asks. “20, why? What's up?” Boden counters. “My dad lives on 23. Dani doesn’t really have anything to do with him so she doesn’t know,” Jay tells him. “Casey, what's it looking like up there?” Chief calls into his walkie. “Hang on, Chief, we're almost in,” Matt tells him. “And we're hooked up. Let's do this!” Paxson yells, grabbing the door handle. “Hey, hold on, we haven't had a chance to-” Kelly is cut off by the door slamming open and the fire jumping out at them all. “Casey, the door!” Kelly yells. “Hey, Candidate. Hey, you're good,” Herrmann tells him, wiping his mask off. “Yeah. Fire's too advanced at 20, Chief. We can't get a foothold,” Matt yells. “Okay, new plan. Squad searches 21. Truck continues up to 22. Engine 37, get a hold of that fire floor,” Boden orders. “Copy that, Chief. Let's go.”
  “So you're not searching 20?” Gorsch asks. “You heard him. That hallway is fully engulfed. Where's your father?” Boden asks. “He lives in 23C,” Jay tells him. “Is he up there now?” Jay shakes his head, “I don't know, he's not answering.” He turns to the building manager. “Excuse me, have you seen Pat Halstead today?” he asks. “Sorry, I don't know him. There's over 500 residents in the tower,” the manager tells him. “Chief, my dad's got a heart condition,” Jay worries. “It's okay. We're working our primary search. 23 is next,” Boden tells him. “How can I help?” Jay asks. “Keep that doorway clear, would you?” Boden tells him. “Absolutely. Everybody back. Clear this door.” 
  “Check every unit! Open every door! Fire department! Call Out!” Matt yells. “Go, join the group. Right this way,” Dani tells the people coming out of apartments. “Follow them, please. Stay low,” Otis told them. They worked efficiently to guide people to the stairwells. “Chief, we cleared 22. Halstead, and I are headed to 23,” Matt calls into the radio. “Copy that. Casey, I got Jay Halstead here. His father lives at 23C. He's not answering his phone. Take a look,” Boden tells him. “On our way. Let's go,” Matt looked at Dani and nodded. Dani frowned as she followed him up the stairs to the next floor. “Hey, Chief. We pulled three victims off of 21. I still got a few more doors to kick in. We'll send these down with Truck,” Kelly calls into his radio. “Okay, hey, my buddies Otis and Stella are gonna take you the rest of the way down, all right? Just do what he says,” Cruz tells the woman he had been helping. “You're not coming?” She asks. “I gotta get back inside. You'll be fine. I promise,” Cruz tells her. “Be careful,” she tells him before taking her dog and following after the other people. “Excuse me, ma'am. All right, everybody, follow me,” Otis calls out, taking the lead with Stella. “The stairwell is so smoky. Are you sure it's okay to be in here?” A woman asks. “It'll clear up once we're below the fire. Let's keep moving,” Otis assured her. “It's a long way down. Can't we take the elevator?” the same woman asked. “The elevators aren't safe. I can hold your baby if you want. Hey, buddy. Hey, little guy. You wanna come to Otis? Hey, come on. Let's go,” Otis offers, reaching out to take the child. “I can carry him. That's not the point,” the woman huffs. 
   “Let's go. Folks, we gotta keep the entrance clear. I need you to wait across the street. Come on,” Jay yells over the crowd of people trying to push past him. “Let's get two more engine companies hooked up to hydrants in case we start to lose pressure. And move Truck 40 down to the corner. I want to leave a lane open for ambulances coming and going,” Boden orders. “Copy that, Chief,” someone responds. “Chief, we're inside 23C right now,” Matt radios as they sweep the apartment. “Dad! If you’re here, call out!” Dani yells. “Halstead,” Chief calls over Jay.  “Go ahead, Casey. What'd you find?” Boden asks. “Nothing. The apartment's empty. No sign of Mr. Halstead,” Matt reports when Dani shook her head, the apartment was clear. “Carry on, Casey,” Boden tells him. “That's good news, right?” Boden asks the detective. “Yeah, I guess so. Thanks, Chief.” Jay walks away from the fray and pulls out his phone. “Hey, man, they just made it to Dad's apartment. He's not there, you hear back from him?” Jay asks Will. “No. I just tried his cell again. Still nothing,” Will tells him. “Same. You think of anywhere else he might be?” Jay asks, “Well, the guy likes to stick to his routines. You know that. A walk in the morning, then home for lunch. He should be back by now,” Will tells him. “All right, well, I'm gonna keep an eye out. You just let me know if you hear from him. I'm guessing he'll call you first,” Jay tells him before hanging up. “You all right?” Goodwin asks Will as he tucks his phone away. “He'll turn up. Old man's a survivor,” he tells her. “If you want you can head over there and join your siblings,” Goodwin tells him. “No, but thanks. I'm good. Can do more here as they bring victims in.”
“All right. I want a secondary search of the last few floors. Make sure we found everyone that was trapped up there,” Boden calls out as Otis comes down with the group of civilians. “Okay, when you get outside, go across the street, check in with the paramedics, okay? Good work. Go outside,” Otis tells them but when he doesn’t see the mother and child he stops one of the others. “Hey. Where's the woman with the baby?” he asks. “She stepped aside to let faster people go by. I didn't see her after that,” the woman told him and he sighed. “Herrmann. The mom with the baby. Did you see her exit the stairwell?” he asks. “I thought they were up front with you,” Herrmann tells him. “We gotta go up and find them,” Otis sighs. “Right. Just let me swap out my air tank,” Herrmann tells him. “Otis, can you take a look at these controls?” Mouch asks. “I'm not on elevator duty, Mouch,” Otis huffs. “I know, but the number three car is still fritzing out. It was stuck on 18 for a while, then it went up to 24, and now it's stopped again,” Mouch tells him. “The mom. I told her we couldn't use the… God! Chief, do we have eyes inside the elevators?” Otis asks. “Camera's out.” Otis turns to Mouch. “Damn it. Okay, you go with Herrmann, I'm gonna work on the elevators, try a system reboot. If that mom took her baby onto the elevator they could be trapped,” Otis tells Boden. “All units above the fire floor, keep your eyes peeled. We are missing a woman and a young child. I want them found.”
 “Severide. I need to get up to 24 to check on that elevator. Can you guys finish out on this floor?” Matt asks. “Yeah, on it. Any word on the mom and her kid?” Matt shakes his head. “Boden's got companies searching from 19 on down, but no sign of them,” he sighs. “She came from 22, right? Halstead, you and Herrmann sweep that floor again just to be sure she didn't go back up for something. Mouch, come with me and we'll start a primary on 24,” Matt orders. “Herrmann. You're looking a little peaked. I mean, you sure you don't want to stop, take a breather?” Dani teases as they stop at the entrance to the 22nd floor. “Like hell. I could do 20 more flights… And still run circles around you,” Herrmann laughed. “No doubt,” Dani nudged him after she put her mask on. “Fire department, call out!” She yelled entering the floor. 
“Hey! You hurt?” Matt asks the candidate clinging to the stairwell railing, who shook his head. “Hey buddy, you okay?” Mouch echoed. “Kay, he's locked up. Took a fireball to the face earlier. Probably shook him up. Get him back downstairs,” Matt ordered. “You sure, Casey?” Mouch asked. “Yeah. He's in the way. Get him out of here,” Matt tells him before heading onwards. “What's your name?” Mouch asked. The kid just shook like a leaf so Mouch leaned over to see his last name on this helmet. “All right. Come on, Ritter, let's go.” The candidate shook his head and clung to the railing tighter. “Hey! My captain just took off by himself 'cause of you. You get to your feet! Lives are at stake!” Mouch yells at him. “Engine 37, talk to me,” Chief called into the radio. “We're still working our way in, Chief. It's an inferno in here,” Paxson yelled. “Engine 62, put another line up on 20,” Boden ordered. “Copy that.” 
“Any news?” Boden asks Jay as he comes back into the building. “Nobody's heard from him. I'm worried he's still inside somewhere. Come on, you must have seen this guy today. Pat Halstead. He's a crusty old pain in the ass. He never smiles. Loves to yell at people,” Jay tells the building manager. “Okay, yeah, yeah. I know the guy. I haven't seen him today,” the manager tells him. “Does he have any friends in the building?” Jay asks. “I see him sometimes pushing Mr. Strouse. He's in a wheelchair. Ronnie Strouse,” the manager rushes. “A guy in a wheelchair? What floor does he live on?” Jay asks. “Uh, 25C. Top floor,” the manager tells him. “That's where he went, for sure,” Jay tells Boden, going to step around the chief and head for the stairs. “Okay. Halstead. I can't have a cop get killed on my fireground. My men will handle it,” Boden stops him, grabbing his arm before he could get very far. 
“Fire department, call out!” Matt yells as he searches the hallway. “Casey, what's your location?” Boden asks into the radio. “I'm on 24 looking for the number three car. We can't open the doors. There's no drop-key access,” Matt reports. “Okay. You make your way to unit 25C. Look for a wheelchair-bound resident,” Boden tells him. “Copy that, Chief,” Matt replies and walks further down the hallway, only to be almost blown back by fire erupting. “Chief, I've got fire coming up through a mechanical closet!” Matt reports. “On 24?” Boden asks. “Affirmative! Repeat! The fire has reached the 24th floor! The fire is traveling through the electrical shafts!”
Boden turns to the building manager now. “Is the wiring in this building original?” he asks. “Uh, no, we did a big renovation a while back. Upgraded all the old copper stuff with fiber optics,” the manager tells him. “That stuff's a lot thinner. It leaves gaps. You're supposed to seal those gaps off,” Boden tells him. “Hey, I don't own the place. If they cut corners, I don't know anything about it,” the manager tells him in return. “This is not good. The fire's traveling faster than we thought. To all companies… We are losing control of this thing. Wrap up your searches, retreat below the fire floor until we get another hose line in place,” Boden says into his walkie. 
“Come on. Ritter, you heard the Chief. Time is running out,” Mouch tells the candidate, who shakes his head again. “Okay. Okay, Ritter. Here's the deal. I don't like to exert myself unless absolutely necessary, but you're not giving me a lot of options here. If you don't get to your feet…” Mouch trails off. “I'm not like him,” Ritter tells him. “What's that?” Mouch asks. “I'm not that tough. I can't do it. I'm not like him,” Ritter manages to tell him. “Like who?” Mouch asks him. “Uncle Anthony. I called him Superman when I was a kid. He fought fires like this. But my heart won't stop pounding,” Ritter tells him. “Hey. I'm scared too. Any sane person would be. Difference is, civilians panic. Firefighters react. And you are a firefighter. Now you get your ass off that ground and let's go,” Mouch tells him, offering him a hand up. 
“All companies, be advised. The missing mother and baby have been… recovered. Continue secondary search for additional victims,” Boden’s voice crackles over the radio. “Hey, how's your air?” Dani asks Herrmann as they walk down a hallway. “I'm good. I got a new tank downstairs. Why, are you low?” he asks in return. Dani looks down at her gauge before nodding. “I, uh… I got a few minutes left,” she tells him. “All right. You know what, forget it. This floor is clear. Let's get below the fire,” he tells her. “Copy that,” she tells him. “Casey, what's your location?” Boden asks. “Just reached the 25th floor, Chief,” Matt tells him, before continuing further into the hallway. He opens the electrical maintenance door and sees sparks fly. “Chief, 25's going to hell now, too. I can't stay long,” he calls out. “Copy that, Casey. Do what you can,” Boden tells him. “Fire department! Call out!” He yells, entering the apartment.
“Over here! Help! He came to get me, but then he collapsed!” a man calls out. “I'm gonna get you both out of here. Chief, I got two victims on 25, Halstead’s father and his friend,” Matt reported. “Good call. What's their condition?” Chief asks. “They're both conscious and responsive, but Mr. Halstead's in rough shape. I need a hand,” Matt tells him. “I'll see who's close by. Any available firefighter to the 25th floor to assist Captain Casey,” Boden called into his walkie. “Hang in there, Pat!” Matt yells as he preps to carry and drag them to safety. He gets partially into the hallway before he has to stop and readjust. “Chief! Is anyone coming?” he asks. “Casey, we're here!” Mouch yells, coming with Ritter behind him. “Mouch, hurry! Take this one!” Matt gestures to Mr. Strouse. “Ready to hoist him up. Okay, stay low!” Mouch tells Ritter as they pick him up and Matt hoists Pat over his shoulder, carrying him out. 
“Dad! Is he all right?” Jay asks, spotting them exiting the building. “He was above the fire floor. Swallowed a lot of smoke. Been in and out of consciousness,” Matt tells him. “Casey, thanks, man,” Jay tells him, patting him on the shoulder before looking up at the building, he had still yet to see his little sister in the fray, and tried not to worry, she knew what she was doing. He shook it off as the paramedics began to assess his dad. “Dad! Hey, this is my father. His name is Pat Halstead. He's 64 years old. Listen, he had bypass surgery a month ago. Dad, can you hear me?” he asks. “He looks hypoxic. Let's get him on oxygen,” one of them says. “We can do CO levels and EKG en route, rule out cardiac dysrhythmia,” the medic tells his partner. “I'm, I'm okay, Jay,” Pat Halstead wheezes out. “Dad, Ronnie looks like he's gonna be okay. You did good. You're damn lucky to be alive,” Jay tells him before they load him up. “Pat going to be alright?” Mr. Strouse asks. “They'll take good care of him,” Mouch assures the man before turning to the candidate. “All right, here we go. You just got your first save, pal,” he tells him. “If it wasn't for me freezing up, you would have got there sooner,” Ritter mumbles. “Hey, Ritter. You could spend your life on "ifs" in this job. Don't do it. You hear me?” Mouch tells him and Ritter nods. 
“Empty,” Kelly calls as he leaves a room. “Same here,” Cruz tells him. “All right, Chief, Cruz and I are finished on 23. We're coming down now,” Kelly calls into the radio. “Help me!” A faint young voice echoes. “Whoa, whoa, hey, Severide. You hear that?” Cruz asks. “Fire department, call out!” Kelly yells. “Help me, please!” the young voice called. “Where are you?” Kelly yells. “20B!” Kelly looks at the door they were at, 23B. “20B? That's three floors down, that's the fire floor.” Cruz tells him. “Hey, kid, what's your name?” Kelly calls into a vent. “Josh! My mom isn't here and I can't get out!” the kid exclaims. “Josh! Stay right where you are! My name's Kelly. I'm coming down to get you!” The kid yells back okay and the two rescue squad members are on the move again. “Hey, Paxson! Paxson! We need to get in 20B! Can you take us there?” Kelly asked. “We're low on air!” Paxson yells. “I got a young boy trapped inside solo!” Kelly tells him.  “We'll get you in, but my guys need relief!” Paxson yells and they begin moving forward. “Hey Chief, Cruz and I are getting the victim on the fire floor, but 37 needs relief on this side line,” Kelly reports. “Herrmann and I are on 19, we'll be right there,” Dani tells him. “All right, we're gonna have to cut across to get to the attack stairwell. Come on,” Herrmann leads. 
“Hey! Severide! She's alive!” Cruz yells after pointing out another victim. “All right, here. You take her down. I'll get the kid,” Kelly tells him. “Copy that, be careful!” Cruz tells his Lieutenant. “Hey, Josh, where are you? Josh!” Kelly calls out. “Over here!” Josh yells, coughing. “Hey, bud! Come on. Let me get you out of here.” The fire blazes in the doorway. “Hey. It's getting a little crazy out there, - but we'll get through it, okay?” Kelly reassures the kid. “Hey 37, we're coming out. You ready?” he asks. “Negative! We're pulling back! Stay where you are!” Paxson responds. “What does that mean?” Josh asks. “Don't worry. Help's coming. All right. Hang on a sec,” he tells the kid, going to investigate. “Hey 37, what's your ETA? It's getting a little stuffy in here,” he asks. “The fire is pushing us back! Come on!” Paxson huffs. “Cavalry's arrived. Sit tight, Kelly!” Dani yells as she and Herrmann take over from 37. “Hey, Herrmann, Halstead, I hate to complain, but I got a young boy here,” Kelly tells them. “This thing is a beast! We're coming as fast as we can!” Herrmann exclaims. “This isn't working. I'm gonna bail out,” Kelly tells them. “Kelly, don't do anything stupid! Second line is on its way!” Dani calls out, noticing her air tank warning alarm was beginning to go off. 
“What are you gonna do? What's happening?” Josh asks Kelly. “I don't want to wait and see if they can get to us before the fire does. So we're gonna perform what's called a self-rescue. Don't worry. I've done this a bunch. And when we're all done, you'll have a hell of a story to tell your friends,” Kelly tells the kid before prepping the ropes. “All right, come here. Your job is to hold onto me. My job is to hold onto the rope. You got it?” he asks. “I hold onto you and don't let go,” Josh repeated. “No way,” he mutters as he looks out of the window. “Keep your eyes closed,” Kelly tells the kid as he finishes up securing things. “Hey, Halstead, Herrmann, get out of there. Meet me on 19,” Kelly calls into his radio. “One more minute, we got this. Hang on, Severide!” Herrmann calls out. “All right, buddy, it’s all good,” Kelly tells Josh as he begins his descent. “Oh, God,” the kid mutters. “Almost there,” Kelly tells him as he tries to kick in the window but it doesn’t break. “What's wrong?” Josh asks. “Nothing. Nothing, I'm just getting a tool to break the glass.” Kelly breaks the glass and kicks it clear so he can slide in. “Hey, hey. You okay?” he asks the kid. “Severide!” Capp calls as he busts in the door. 
Dani could feel the effects caused by lack of oxygen beginning and let go of the hose, moving to try and remove her mask. She was unsuccessful and felt herself falling back before passing out. Herrmann turns to tell Dani to head back down and sees her down. “Mayday, mayday! Halstead is down! I need assistance on 20!” Herrmann calls out, removing her mask and placing his own on her face in the hopes that she hadn’t been down long. “Mayday, mayday!” Herrmann called out again. “Hey, what happened?” Kelly yelled as he got to them, Dani’s pass alarm blaring. “Listen. She ran out of air!” Herrmann tells him. “Come on!” Kelly grabs her by the straps and Herrmann does his best to keep the mask on her. “Okay, clear out! Give us some room! Come on!” Boden yells as he makes a path for his firefighters to carry the youngest Halstead sibling through. “Get her up,” Matt tells them, and the four carrying her lift her onto the stretcher and set her down. “I've got a pulse but she's not breathing. Bag her,” Brett tells Foster. “Got it,” the woman jumped into action. “Her air ran out and she just dropped,” Herrmann tells them. “Come on, Dani,” Kelly mutters as he steps back to allow for Foster to move in with the bag. “Start bagging her, please,” Foster tells Herrmann once she gets it into position. “You got it,” he nods. 
“Lieutenant, cut her shirt so I can get the cardiac leads on her,” Foster orders. “Come on, Halstead,” Kelly’s voice wobbled, his eyes glued to her form. “Tube's in. Let's hang a Cyanokit on the way to Med,” Brett tells Foster. “All right, guys, let's get her in the rig,” Foster tells them. They load her up. “Boden, you've done the heavy lifting. I'll take it from here. Go check on your firefighter,” another battalion chief stepped up. “You're sure?” Boden asks. “Go.” Boden nods and turns back to his crew. “Severide, Herrmann. Stay with 61,” he orders. “Yeah come on, let's move,” Kelly says as he climbs up in the ambo. “Come on. Give them an escort,” Matt yells to the others. “I'll drive,” Foster tells Brett. “Thanks,” Brett nods before climbing in the back of the ambo and shutting the door. 
“It's Dani… Halstead. She took in a lot of smoke,” Brett tells the emergency room nurses that were with Dr. Choi but chokes up a little. “She had a pulse but wasn't breathing. We intubated, hung a Cyanokit on the rig, her CO is at 40%...” Foster trails off. “Okay. We got her. Let's transfer on my count. One, two, three,” Choi calls out. “Thank you for taking over,” Brett tells Foster, still watching the trauma bay. “I get it. It's family,” Foster tells her, rubbing her shoulder. The rest of the house walks in, some hanging back as Matt goes to Kelly and places a hand on his shoulder. Kelly swallows before shrugging Matt off and turning to Herrmann. “How did you let this happen?” he asks the older man, his eyes watering. “Hey. Severide,” Matt tries to get him to back off. “Huh? You're supposed to have her back, Herrmann!” Kelly shouts. “She didn't tell me that her alarm went off,” Herrmann’s voice shuddered a little. “She was trying to save you.”

The Right Person At The Wrong Time - Chapter 2
Tumblr media
Fandom: One Chicago
Pairing: Kelly Severide x Valentina Pierce (OC)
Disclaimer: This story follows most Chicago Fire storylines with my personal twist added to them. The only character belonging to me is OC Valentina Pierce.
A/N: This story will put some very beloved characters into a slightly bad light so I hope you will still enjoy it for the sake of the storyline 🤗
Previous Chapter
•••
The night before, clothing pieces were flying left and right in Valentina's apartment. Her and Carver barely got a few drinks in when they decided to cut the night out short...and truth be told Valentina knew this was what he meant by "drinks not dinner".
She was also no stranger to such practices, but it was only once these antics landed her in a relationship and it was the one with Kelly, which lasted for a few good years and slightly changed the trajectory of her entire life.
The morning after, Valentina slid out of the warm bedsheets and tip toed out of the room as quite as she could. Walking into the living room, clothes were scattered all over the floor and a smirk appeared on her face as memories from the night before came in flooding her mind. She had a good time...hell even a great time, but she knew she was walking on a thin line and things could go south very easily...which she obviously didn't want to since she had just returned and finally got her life together. But for real...out of all the men in Chicago, of course she had to pick the one working with her and with her ex in the same firehouse.
As all these things were going through her mind, she got dressed and got herself ready for shift. Making her way to the kitchen and fixing herself a cup of coffee she was still deep in her thoughts when she heard footsteps approaching her...and it was no other than Carver, half dressed, having the same cheeky smirk on his face like she did minutes ago. "How nice of you to also make me a cup of coffee...", the sarcasm in his voice was loud and clear as he took the cup out of Valentina's hands and sipped out of her hot beverage. It took everything in her to not push him against a wall again and he probably noticed that, so he was closing the gap between them to the point she could feel his breath. "I...had a really, really great time...but this has to stay between us." Raising her head to his level, she managed to say all that while keeping eye contact and a serious face. Nodding in agreement, Carver took one step closer to her if that was even possible. "Tell me one thing...who's the firefighter that ruined it for me?" The question took her by surprise...slightly, but she knew what game he was playing and she wasn't one to back off. "You wouldn't want to know....and you should get going or you'll be late for shift." "Fair enough...I'll see you later then!" Carver said and pecked her cheek quickly before he left.
//
"I thought I'd be seeing you at Molly's?" Brett said as she walked into the locker room and saw Valentina sitting on the bench while tying her shoelaces. "Yeah we all did. You haven't been there since you came back." Ritter pitched in immediately after. "Yeah...ugh, something came up and I had to call it a night very quick. But I will come next time...I promise." She was a horrible liar and she knew it, but everybody else just had to be happy with that answer for now. "Chief wants us in the briefing room in 5." Cruz appeared through the door and announced.
"I'm going to the bathroom real quick and I'll meet you there." Val told Sylvie before she disappeared out of the door. She just wanted to make sure she didn't look hungover or overly tired so she splashed some cold water on her face. As her eyes were still closed she heard the door behind her open and then immediately close. "Good Morning!" Kelly's voice filled the room as they were now looking at each other through the mirror. "Morning!"
"You seemed happy when you came in this morning." He continued as he leaned against the sink crossing his arms. "Is that such a strange thing for you? To see me happy?" Why was she giving him an attitude at 8 am...she never enjoyed speaking to him like this let alone hurt him in any way. "Is this how it's going to be between us?" He asked and Valentina could feel his eyes piercing through her as she initially avoided looking at him, but she turned around and took a deep breath in, that could easily come off as annoyed. In reality she just didn'twant to melt so easily into his blue eyes...because those used to be her weakness. "Like what Kelly?"
"Like you hating me." She was almost offended by those words, because in what world would she be able to hate him? Not in this one for sure. "I don't hate you Kelly...I don't have it in me to hate you, but I am indifferent to you, because what else am I supposed to do?" She thought about this moment...about the moment where they can finally talk, get it all out and moved on, but despite all the scenarios she made up in her head she was still not ready. "You hate me because I moved on! You just left and I was supposed to guess that you will come back? I was supposed to wait?" Frustration could be heard in his words as his voice grew louder.
"You moved on with the person you assured me so many times you had nothing to do with...and I believed you. You married that person...you didn't just move on, you made a lifetime commitment to her." It was all coming out now and there was no way back. "We were together what? 6, 7 years and we never once discussed marriage because I knew you weren't that kind of guy...and then I'm gone not even 3 years and I come back...and the one person I thought I knew so well did a complete 180°." There were a lot of underlying emotions, frustrations and feelings between the two and this conversation was bringing them all out. "Exactly Val! After 7 years you just got up and left...with an excuse of an explanation I had to deal with tha-"
"You two! This is not the place to be having this conversation...I can hear you from down the hall." Hermann appeared through the door, interrupting their screaming match. The room fell into silence and Valentina felt her breath get rapid so she quickly made her way out. Arriving into the briefing room she realized she was late...really late and Boden did not look happy. A few minutes later after the meeting was done the chief turned to look towards her. "And since Pierce and Carver were late, they have the honor of cleaning Ambo and Truck inside out."
'Of course he was late too.' She thought to herself as she looked to her right seeing the man she woke up next to earlier today. Getting the cleaning supplies she felt his presence behind her. "You know why I'm late...why are you late?" He asked and pretty much cornered her into the supply closet. "Figured I find a way to get stuck with you without making it obvious." He loved her attitude and she loved the tension that was building between them naturally everytime they were in each other's presence. "Now will you let me go clean the Ambo or are you going to push me into the wall?" If they had a choice the answer would be clear, but they didn't so he moved to the side for her.
//
"You're an awfully punctual person, what happened earlier? You know Boden hates when we're late." Brett asked as she watched her partner scrub every inch of the Ambo. "If I tell you, you can't make any faces, you can't judge me nor will you speak about this to anyone..." Valentina said stopping from whatever she was doing and saw Brett nodding in agreement. "I slept with Carver." She barely got the words before Sylvie gasped dramatically. "Sorry you can continue..." "And then I ran into Kelly in the bathroom this morning and...it got ugly to say the least." As she was saying all this out loud she realized how foolish the whole situation sounded...the situation or her? "My...very humble opinion? One or the other. Don't dig a deeper grave for yourself than you already have. I can't tell you to fight for Severide because that's a married man right there, but I also know what the two of you had in the past...or just move on. Your new friend seems to be helping you with that." Sometimes she hated how painfully honest Sylvie was with her, but who else was going to knock some sense into her if not her very own best friend. "Come on, I'll help you finish up...you already look like you're struggling." Brett pitched in making her partner let out a relieved sigh.
As Valentina wanted to continue her work she couldn't help but hear a pretty serious conversation going down a few feet away from her. "House fire in Pilsen going wrong? Really?" Stella's voice could be heard asking and a frown appeared on Valentina's face not realizing who was on the other end of the conversation. "I don't appreciate you lying...I don't like liars especially when I'm trying to make them part of my crew." She continued and Valentina just grew more confused and curious as she unintentionally eavesdropped. "You need to be honest with me for this to work...so go ahead." "All due respect Lieutenant, but it's a private matter and I guess I will just shut up from now on." Carver's voice could finally be heard and Valentina was immediately felt a bitter taste in her mouth...she knew what they were talking about and for some reasons it pissed her off badly.

Posting a snippet of the new fic to keep me motivated to write! It's called "When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down". The title for this fic is taken from the song Hold You Down by X Ambassadors, and the song itself pretty much provides the tone for this fic. I should warn in advance, this fic is non-canon compliant.
Without further ado, the snippet!
She turned on him and he thought the look in her eyes was powerful enough to level a building; loneliness and anger and mistrust, months of difficult emotions she'd fought like hell to keep at bay now crashed to the surface like a tidal wave. She pointed an accusatory finger at his chest. "You are pathetic!"
He scoffed, unsure whether to be offended or annoyed by her critical analysis of his character. "Oh, I'm pathetic? Me?"
"Yes, you!"
"I don't walk around here acting like she's going to come through the front door at any moment! Now that's pathetic."
He watched as her cheeks flamed a slight red, embarrassment joining the flood of emotions locked and loaded in her arsenal. "That's rich, real fucking nice. You're right, you don't expect to see her walk through those doors anymore. You're just disappearing for months at a time and sleeping your way through half of Chicago like she never existed!" she said, biting back bitter tears. "God, what did she see in you?"
"If you hate me that bad, Hale, why are you still here?" Kelly asked, gritting his teeth.
Hale took a deep breath. Her hazel eyes had dimmed under the accusations that had flown from Kelly's mouth. The exhaustion was easy to see. "Because for some fucking reason that I will never understand, Shay loved you with her whole life. Right down to her last breath. Even when you didn't deserve it,―and believe me, you didn't deserve it a lot―she loved you. And I loved my sister. And I can't be mad at you anymore, Kelly. It's too much."
For the second time since Leslie Shay's death, Kelly Severide watched Hale Shay fall apart and felt a desire to put the pieces back together.

Chicago Fire Masterlist
____________________________________________________________
As the days passed since your date with Kelly, you could easily say that you two had grown closer. 
When days turned weeks, and weeks turned into months, you knew the label of “friends” could no longer be applied. But since a new label had yet to be attached to your relationship, you found yourselves in that grey area of being more than friends, but less than lovers. 
Gabby had called it a flirtationship.
Apparently, there was a word for the stage you always seemed to get to before reality hit and things fizzled out by going nowhere.
If you were being honest with yourself, you knew a part of you expected the same thing to happen with you and Kelly. But as you continued to wait for the other shoe to drop, you found yourself becoming increasingly hopeful when it never did. 
Going from unintentionally meeting at Molly’s for drinks multiple times to deliberately making plans to see each other outside of work, it was becoming harder and harder to pretend you felt nothing for the Squad Lieutenant.
You gave it a valiant effort, but as Kelly continued to show up at your place with your favorite takeout, or he listened to you rant about a tough day, or he just held you as you both watched TV, you knew it was a losing battle. 
Hearing the firehouse’s alarm loudly go off, you were immediately jolted from your thoughts.
After hearing the announcement that you were all needed at a house fire, you instantly made your way to the ambulance in order to head to the scene. But as you drove, you began to feel Sylvie eyeing you from the passenger seat. When you saw her staring at you from your peripheral vision, you questioningly said, 
“Yes?” 
Without taking your eyes off the road. 
As if deciding she wasn’t going to pursue it, your partner shook her head and turned to look out the window. But after deciding she couldn’t wait any longer, she turned back to you and asked,
“So, what’s going on with you and Severide?”
Caught off guard at such a question, you could not stop the look of surprise that sprung up on your face as your eyes remained on the road. 
Flustered (and hoping she didn’t notice your initial expression), you tried to be nonchalant as you said,
“What do you mean?”
But given the slight eye roll you received, you correctly assumed that you were fooling no one.
Sighing your name with a hint of exasperation, Sylvie continued by saying, 
“Come on! We have all seen the looks he gives you.”
A sudden warmth bloomed in your chest as you learned that Kelly’s affection for you had become more than obvious to the rest of the house. But since nothing was official (yet), you tried to argue back by shrugging and saying,
“I’m sure he gives plenty of looks to plenty of people.”
But even you knew that was no longer true. You were the only person he was flirting with and you had been for a while. Even if you wanted to suspect otherwise, all evidence pointed to the contrary.
Since you and Sylvie were both aware that you were only trying to convince yourself, you weren’t surprised when you heard your partner try to persuade you one more time by reflectively replying,
“I don’t know. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him look at anyone the way he looks at you.”
But before you could dwell on that particular statement, you found yourselves pulling up to the scene.
Easily spotting the flames engulfing the house, you and Sylvie hopped out of the ambulance and went to the back in order to prep some thermal blankets and oxygen masks for any possible survivors. 
Since Truck 81 had apparently beaten you to the address, you could see they were already venting the roof when you arrived. Once they were done, you heard Chief Boden order Squad 3 to perform a search and rescue. 
When they geared up and entered the house, you could only use your radio to give you an idea of what was going on inside.
Listening as they cleared the first level, you heard Kelly say they were moving to the second floor just as a huge explosion sounded from the house. 
You and everyone else outside instinctively turned to cover yourselves from any flying debris as the ground shook with the force of the blast.
When everything settled down again, you saw Chief Boden urgently grab his radio before barking into it with concern,
“Squad 3, report!”
You all waited for an answer before too much time passed and Chief had to try again.
“Squad 3, REPORT!”
The silence seemed to last an eternity before you heard the crackle of the radio coming to life with Joe’s strained voice behind it.
“Mayday! Mayday!” You all heard him huff out. 
You were already anxious to hear how everyone was, but it was when he continued that you felt your heart stop.
“Severide is down! Requesting assistance from 81!”
A frigid coldness flooded your body as you watched in a terrified daze as Casey and his firefighters geared up and went into the flames with the hope of rescuing Kelly. 
Because that was all any of you could rely on in this moment.
Hope.
You hoped they would get to him in time. You hoped that he would make it out alive. And you hoped you would get a chance to actually tell him how you feel.
Hoping for a hundred different things, you impatiently waited for any sign that this man was going to be alright.
But your hopes went unanswered as you watched the firefighters come out of the house minutes later carrying one of their own. You were only paralyzed with fear for a moment until you heard them call for a medic and you jumped into action.
Quickly guiding the gurney over to the group, you immediately began checking for signs of life as Kelly was placed onto the stretcher. You could easily see that he was covered in soot, unconscious, and bleeding from somewhere on his head.
Swiftly placing your fingers on the pulse of his throat, you felt your heart start again as you felt the rhythmic beating of his.
In a rapid move, you cut his shirt and took the stethoscope from around your neck before placing the head of the tool on his chest. You finally found it possible to take in a breath as you were able to announce that he was still breathing. 
Now knowing the situation was serious, but not as direr, you turned toward the one who radioed in while still working on Kelly in order to get some necessary information.
“What happened?”
You urgently asked. Swallowing, you tried to pretend your voice hadn’t wobbled when you spoke.
Shaking his head as if even he didn’t understand it, Cruz answered you by saying,  
“We were going up to the second level when a beam came crashing down. It took out the stairs he was standing on and they both went through the floor.”
Comprehending the situation, your eyes ran up and down Kelly’s body still looking for injuries as you said, “With a fall like that, he could have internal bleeding. We need to get him to Med, now!”
All nodding in agreement, every available firefighter helped you roll Kelly into the ambulance as Chief Boden requested another ambo be sent to the scene as he took yours out of service. 
While you sat in the back, your hands wanted to shake with the amount of adrenaline pumping through your body as you worked to keep the Lieutenant stable. But because it was him, you knew that your nerves needed to be made of steel in this moment.
Though you were sure it was just your imagination, it felt like it had taken hours before you pulled up to the hospital.
Giving his medical stats and a rundown of what happened as you handed Kelly off to the doctors, you could only watch as they nodded and proceeded to close the curtains around him so they could work.
You turned and stayed standing in place as wave after wave of emotion hit you. Floating in such an emotional ocean came with the startling realization that you did not want to lose Kelly.
In any capacity.
You could barely understand anything but that thought as you stood there. So you were grateful when Sylvie came over and led you to the sitting area where you both took a seat and waited for any updates. 
You were soon joined by the rest of 51 after they finished putting out the fire and confirmed that no one was in the house. Settling into the available chairs, you all awaited any news about your fellow comrade.
Going from the fast-paced rush of being in the field to playing a waiting game in the ER made time move at a crawl.
You could feel yourself getting antsy when you saw Dr.Halstead round the corner and make a beeline for your group.
Shooting up from your seat and meeting him halfway, you didn’t even wait for the rest of your house to follow as you asked with clear trepidation,
“How is he?”
Putting his hands up to stop your worry, Will gave a comforting smile as he said,
“He’s awake.”
Being joined by your firehouse family, you all gave sighs of relief as Halstead continued.
“He has a slight concussion and some bruising on a few of his organs, but with some rest, he’ll be good as new in no time.”
You all thanked him profusely for the update. Returning the reassuring hug given to you by Sylvie, you could not stop yourself from turning back to the doctor and asking if Kelly could have any visitors.
“He can.” Will responded with confidence.
Nodding, you turned towards Matt knowing he would want to see his best friend first, but you were surprised to see he was already looking your way.
That surprise only grew when Halstead touched your arm and said with a knowing look, 
“He’s asking for you.”
Before walking away to deal with other emergencies.
Turning back to face the rest of 51 to first celebrate the good news, you were taken back when you finally noticed they were all looking at you with small smiles on their faces.    
Now that they knew their friend was going to be ok, there was nothing stopping them from acknowledging the feelings you both clearly had for one another. 
And after receiving an encouraging nod from Chief Boden, you knew there was nothing stopping you from also acknowledging your true feelings. So, after returning their smiles, you made your way to Kelly’s room. 
Peeking your head inside to confirm he was in fact awake, you let yourself in when you saw that he was. Even though his eyes landed on you and lit up the moment you stepped through the door, you did not say a word even as you sat down in the chair next to his bed.
Kelly was beginning to grow worried at your silence when you reached over to grab and hold one of his hands. Taking a deep breath, you opened your mouth and quietly said,
“Please try to give me some time before you scare me like that again.”
Entwining his fingers with yours, Kelly asked in a tired but teasing voice,
“What? Not going to ask me to never end up here again?”
And though the teasing tone did make you smile slightly, it did not stop you from giving a sigh at such a fantasy as you replied without hesitation,
“No. Because that’s not who you are. You will always be the first one in and the last one out. It would be naive of me to believe you’ll never get hurt again.”
Swallowing the tears that started to build in your throat, you continued.
“So, for the sake of my heart, will you please try to give me some time before you end up here again?”
Regarding you quietly, Kelly could see the emotion on your face as you spoke. Giving your hand a squeeze, he murmured out,
“I’ll give you all the time you need.”
When you made eye contact with him, you knew he was and wasn’t talking about getting injured. As you held each other’s gaze, you licked your lips as you went to finally admit what you had been holding back.
“Kelly, I—”
“I love you.”
But like most things in your relationship, he beat you to it.
He was looking at your joined hands as he started to say,
“I’ve honestly loved you for a while,” He began with a sheepish grin before becoming serious again, “It was the easiest, most natural thing in the world to fall in love with you.”
Looking back into your eyes, he went on.
“I know I should have said it sooner, but I’m saying it now. I love you.”
Glancing off to the side, he began to prepare for the worse as he said,
“I understand completely if you don’t feel the same way. But after today, I just had to let you know—”
But this time, you cut him off as you quickly leaned in and gently pressed your lips to his in a soft kiss.
Pulling back just as quickly and seeing his shocked expression, you gave a shy smile as you said,
“I love you too.”
Giving you a bright grin, Kelly only tilted his head towards yours again and you gave into his wordless request for another kiss. You both passionately continued on for a few moments, finally enjoying what you had been craving for months, before he pulled away. 
Using his free hand to affectionately tug at one of the coils in your hair, Kelly watched as it sprung back into place and eventually worked up the courage to ask,
“So, will you be my girl?”
Before you gave an answer, you asked a question of your own.
“Will saying ‘yes’ make you equally mine?”
Smiling at the idea of being “yours”, Kelly gave an easy nod.
Giving your own smile at his agreement, you said,
“Then yes, I will be your girl.”
And leaned back down to once again press your lips to his.

Ok but do you think Kelly Severide would be a dom? Like protective af, dominant as all hell and love his sub so much. Would he take her to events, plays nights and let her play with other people as long as he watched? My little sub heart can’t cope. 🥰🥰🥰
