Song: Peaks & Valleys by Lauren Eylise (Sorry, I could not find any lyrics for this song, but definitely check it out if you can. It's amazing!)

*This is what I wish would have happened for 08x09!

*There will be two today, so make sure you check out the one after this!

'Wow, he really went to her tonight. I mean...I thought he was over her and ready to move on. Maybe he's just been waiting for her to come back all along.' Thought Brett right after she heard Severide come into Molly's and tell Kidd where Casey was tonight.

'I know I told him to go, but why did he really go? I thought there was something there between us, but I guess I was wrong.'

"Hey, Brett you good girl? You haven't said very much tonight." Commented Foster as she watched Brett continue to stare at the door.

Brett shook her head trying to pretend that she was fine, "Yeah, yeah I'm good. Just tired after the long week we had. Ya know?"

Foster sadly nodded along with what Brett was saying, "Yeah, I know. You've just seemed a little wonky since your last partner, Gabby, came back."

"Nope, I'm good." Whispered Brett as she stared down at her vodka and cranberry.

Foster felt so bad for her friend. 'How can he do this to her? He's played with her emotions forever now. I'm going to tell him. I'm really going to tell him that he needs to move on and leave Brett out of it completely. Why can't he see how she feels for him?'

"Hey, Foster are we still going to that concert next weekend?" Asked Kidd as she placed another shot of bourbon in front of Foster.

Foster smiled at her considerate friend before she downed the shot, "You know it!"

Kidd laughed before she looked over Brett and pointed at Brett, "Hey, what's wrong with her?"

Foster sighed, "Casey went to Cabby's thing tonight."

"You mean Gabby?" Asked Kidd as she laughed at her obviously drunk friend.

"Oh, yeah, yeah her whatever her name it."

Kidd's smile dropped, she felt so bad for her friend, "Really? I thought her and Casey were actually getting somewhere."

"Yeah, me too." Replied Foster as took another shot.

It was a couple hours later that Brett came up to the two girls and announced that she was leaving.

"Are you sure you wanna go.home? It's so early." Cried Foster as she tried to get Brett to stay out with them for a little longer. "

Brett laughed at her friends' antics. Both girls really made it their mission to try and cheer Brett up tonight. "I'm sure guys. I promise I'll call when I get home."

"We love you!" Yelled Foster as Severide helped her stand up from her barstool.

Brett sadly giggled, "I love you both."

It was three hours later that Kidd and a mostly sobered up Foster were sitting in the bar when Matthew Casey ran in out of breath and looking for Brett.

"Where is she? She said she was going to be here tonight."

Kidd and Foster looked at each other with wide eyes.

"Umm..Captain, Brett left hours ago." Muttered Kidd.

"Where'd she go?" Asked Casey as he swiped his eyes across the bar making sure what they just told him was really true.

"Home," Giggled Foster as she thought about how this situation was one hundred percent Brett's luck.

Casey didn't even stick around to hear what everyone else was saying, he just ran out of the bar and to the one person he had been thinking about all night.
