Today I was finally back to work. Dr. Halstead kept me off of work for another 2 and a half weeks. Right now I am 21 weeks pregnant. Today I was just proud to finally be able to walk into work.

Matt guided me into the doors, which I was so happy to see. I dropped my hand and gave me a kiss.

"Love you babe, keep you and those babies safe!"

"I will. I love you too!"

With that I walked into the common kitchen/dining area where only Herrmann and Otis were.

"Where is everyone?" I asked them.

They just casually got up and walked out. Matt was gone too.

Suddenly in what felt like 7 seconds, everyone ran out.

"WELCOME BACK DAWSON!" They all said together.

I suddenly grabbed my head and sat down. Matt ran over to be at my side.

"Hey, hey, hey, are you ok?" I said panicking.

"I, uh, I, GOTCHA! That's what you guys all get for scaring me!"

They all scoffed at me in pity.

"Hey Gabby. Welcome back." Severide came over and kissed me on the cheek.
I hugged him back.

He pulled the group together.

"I have an announcement to make."

"Get on with the Kelly, these babies don't have all day." I Said back to him.

"Sylvie and I are a couple."

We all cheered and went up to them. I was so happy that our bests friends were able to find interest in each other.

Thy walked away and started making out.

"Hey, Sev, weren't you the one who old me no PDA just a few weeks ago? My how the tables have turned!"

"Oh, hush, Dawson. If you weren't pregnant we could go box this out."

We shared a laugh and then I walked away.

I went into Matts office for most of the rest of the shift. It was so nice today being as we haven't had any calls. Little to my knowledge we had a call about 40 minutes before shift ended.

The call ended up being a minor house fire. The man inside got a few second degree burns on his arms and legs so we needed to transport him to he hospital. I went to grab the backboard and Matt ran up to me.

"Hey, you're not lifting that. Let me get it."

"Matt, I got it. It's my job. "

"Dawson, I got it. Get in the ambo."

I almost felt betrayed by him. I would never go up to him and instruct him on how to go into a burning building. Why does he have to do it to me? This is my job not his. I was so upset. I got into the back of the ambulance and stayed there, even when Sylvie dropped off our patient and came back to drive to the house. The entire ride back I was crying.

I think Sylvie knew that I didn't want to be bugged.

When we got back to the house I ran into the locker room to get my stuff and walked out in a hurry, visibly upset. I walked out to the car and Matt came running out.

"Gabby, cmon don't do this. How am I going to get home?"

"I don't know and I'm not going to tell you. You'll figure something out."

I left him standing here and drove to Antonio's.  

I ran up to the door on his house in a hurry. I just wanted to get inside and embraced with comfort.

"Hey, Gabby? What's wrong?"

"Matt and I are in a fight. Can I stay here for a little?"

"Of course, anything for my baby sister. Come inside and tell me what happened."

I went inside and we data down on the couch. He turned off the tv, which he was watching wrestling on, no surprise there. I explained the entire thing.

He hugged me.

"Gabby, I think that he was just doing it for your own best interest. I know how it feels to be pushed out of your job though. I'm sorry."

"Antonio, I don't need him looking out for me. I can handle myself."

"Yeah but sometimes it's nice to have an extra set of eyes. It's ok."

He let me cry on him for about 10 minutes, when the doorbell rang.

He went to answer it.

***matt POV****

"Hey Antonio. Is Gabby here?"

"Yeah she's in there, on the couch."

"Did she tell you what happened?"

"Yeah, and man, you could have been a little less of a douche bag about it."

"I know, I just didn't want her getting hurt. Do you think she's hormonal?"

"Extremely."

****Gabby POV *****

Matt walked over to me and apologized. As soon as we reconciled out feelings we went back home and went to bed. Recently, now that I'm back at work, I get tired so easily and need all the extra sleep. 

**** Kelly POV****
Sylvie is coming over tonight. I told her that we could spend some time together tonight since we didn't see each other during shift today.

In about twenty minutes she came to my door and I gladly let her in. We had some pizza that I ordered and started to talk.

"So, what do think about us moving in together?" I asked her.

"I was going to ask you the same question."

"One step ahead of you. Always."

"My lease is almost up on my apartment anyways. It runs out in 2 weeks. Can we make that work?"

"Babe, we can make anything work." I responded.

Tonight I felt a sort of tension between us. The only thing was that it wasn't bad tension. It was like both of us were just waiting for the other to make he first step towards the bed.

That step was one that I started to make first. It felt so nice to have her body intermixed with mine. These were the times that I missed when we were on shift because I knew that we couldn't just have each other whenever we wanted. It was all forgiven during these times.

Hey guys! Sorry for going such a long time without updating. Thank you so much for over 800 reads! I'm almost up to 900! I think that I am going to start updating more frequently again, I've just even really sick the past two weeks. Thank you guys for sticking around and I hope you're liking the new Sylveide parts. I think I am. Let me know if you want more or less with them and some things that you want to happen in the plot. I think I might do 5-7 more chapters before the birth of the Dawsey babies, but who knows it could end up being shorter or longer. Thanks again. As always, make sure to watch Chicago Med, Chicago Fire, and Chicago PD! Love you guys!
