Old House

Ambulance 51, Squad 3, Truck 81 structure fire...

"You okay?" Brett asked as she got into the drivers side of the ambulance to see Eliza getting in, deep in thought.

"I think that's our old house." Eliza said. "Our parents old house." She added.

"Fire department! Call out!" Logan shouted as he began to clear the second floor of the three bedroom family home with Kidd.

"In here!" A voice said, behind a door.

"Stand away from the door!" Logan called, before opening the door. Something about the room he found himself stood in felt oddly familiar.

"Over here!" The same voice came again.

"Is there anyone else in the house?" Kidd asked, helping the woman and young child to their feet.

"My husband and my eldest son." The woman said between coughs.

"The son's outside, I'll go find the husband." Logan told Kidd.

"Lets get you out of here." Kidd said. Kidd walked them out of the burning house through the front door where the fire was barely under control. "Smoke inhalation." She told Brett and Eliza as the family reunited, minus the father. "I should probably go help Logan look for the dad." Stella said turning and putting her mask back on.

"Evacuate!" Chiefs voice came through her radio as she went to put her helmet back on. She looked up and saw the smoke had turned black. Kidd took her mask back off and turned to look at Eliza who was checking the mother was also watching the entrance to the house.

"Squad 3's clear Chief." Severide's voice came over the radio.

"Casey?" Boden asked.

"Has anyone seen Logan?" Casey asked.

"He went looking for the father." Kidd said. "I haven't seen him come out."

"Chambers, report!" Boden called into his radio. Seconds later two figures emerged from what was left of the building, Kidd ran to his side and took the father over to the second ambulance.

"You gave us a scare then." Eliza said, sitting him down on the back of the now empty ambulance 61.

"Sorry, I was clearing the master room when Chief told us to evacuate and heard something coming from the en suite." Logan explained as Eliza checked him over.

"As long as you're okay." Eliza said, sitting next to him as 51 tried to get the blaze under control.

"Is this our old house?" Logan asked.

"Yep." Eliza said.

"I'll be here same time as normal, if you're running late just text me." Eliza said as she dropped Jacob off at med for his shift the next day.

"Okay." Jacob said, getting out of the car. He stood on the curb, watching the car pull away before beginning the walk from the parking lot to the E.D.

"Mr Chambers." A Male voice called him about half way through the short walk. Jacob had passed the main entrance to Chicago Med and was now in a less used part of the hospital grounds that was only passed through by E.D staff on their way to or from work.

"Um, do I know you?" Jacob asked, turning to face the man. The man was older than him, probably around fifty.

"No, but you know my daughter." He stated.

"What's your name? Or your daughters name?" Jacob asked, assuming it was a grieving father who had lost his child in the E.D.

"Has she not told you about me?" The man asked.

"I don't know what you're on about. Now if you'd excuse me I need to get to work." Jacob said, turning and beginning to continue his walk.

"No. What you need to do is stay the hell away from my daughter." The man said, revealing the knife that had been behind his back the entire time.

"Sir, put the knife down." Jacob said, having turned back around at his previous statement.

"This is your warning, stay the hell away from her." He Said, stabbing Jacob once, withdrawing the knife and walking away leaving Jacob crumpled on the path, blood pouring from his abdomen.

"Hey you okay? You sounded a bit shaken up on the phone." Jay said, approaching Eliza who was stood outside of the coffee shop they often met at, completely clueless as to what had just happened at the hospital.

"Yeah, it was just a weird shift." Eliza said, walking through the door that he held open for her.

"You wanna talk about it?" Jay offered.

"I would rather have a distraction?" Eliza said, placing a kiss on his lips. "Your not meant to be at work or anything are you?" She asked, suddenly realising he may have had other plans.

"Nope, Voights given me the day off." Jay Said.

"Why?" Eliza asked, knowing from experience with Kyle that Voight only gives days off if there's something wrong. "Are you alright? Is Will alright?" She Asked, visually scanning him for any injuries.

"We're both fine, there was a car chase yesterday, Hailey and I were cutting them off. They hit us, we all span, your brother got the guy and so Voights given me and Hailey the day off." Jay explained.

"You're meant to be resting then, not meeting up with me." Eliza said. "You really shouldn't of come."

"I was getting bored." Jay Said with a shrug as they sat at their usual table, coffees in hand.

"It's half nine." Eliza said, "How can you be bored already?"

"I'm not anymore." He Said with a smirk. "If you're so insistent on me resting then why don't we go back to my place and put on a film?" He Said.

"Um.. I don't know." Eliza said, a wave of anxiety washing over her.

"You trust me right? No ulterior motives, just you, me and a film." Jay Said, taking her slightly shaky hands in his.

"Okay." Eliza said.
