She told Kelly she couldn't be a lifeline for a drowning man again. So she left. Built a new life in Springfield. Firefighter. Lieutenant. Someone stronger than the woman who walked away. But three years later... Stella Kidd is back in Chicago. For the Brettsey wedding. With a plus one. And Kelly Severide isn't sure he can survive watching her leave all over again. A Stellaride fanfic. Diverging from Season 7 canon. Timelines will shift-but the story will find its way back. Disclaimer: All the characters belong to Dick Wolf etc....except the ones I may have added
