Hi fellow readers, I wanted to give this idea in my head a shot and she how it turns out. If you are reading my other story no worries I have numerous chapters already written so I'll continue to post. Please leave me a review and tell me what you think and if I should continue, thanks always for your continued support...Jamie.

This story does not follow any current Chicago fire storylines. The rest I guess you'll just have to read and see :-)

Love on the Internet

Chapter 1

Gabby ran through her apartment door looking at her watch, it was 11:15 p.m, and she was running late . Every night at 11:00 p.m she made sure she was in front of her computer screen for what she called her daily wined down. She threw her hat and coat on the coat slipping off her work shoes and pulling off her scrub top, leaving just a tank top as she sat at her small computer desk and clicked the on button of the monitor and seconds later it came to life. Gabby quickly types under her screen name,

Msfiestychick...evening sorry I'm late...are you still up?

She sits impatient looking at her watch cursing herself for being late. But after a few seconds her private message is lighting up her screen.

Handyman51...hey I thought you forgot about me?

Gabby chuckles to herself before typing back

Msfiestychick...haven't missed a day in almost the year we've been chatting:)

Handyman51...true very true, so how did your day go?

Msfiestychick...busy that's why I'm late, but enough about me how did your day go?

Handyman51...busy as well, but I'm still on shift so who knows how my night will go. So when will you tell me what you do for a living? You know what I do, its only fair?

Msfiestychick...one day, one day soon.

Handyman51...so one day you say does that by any chance be when we finally meet?

Msfiestychick...maybe?

Handyman51...hmmm, cryptic you are, but I'm holding out hope you agree to meet me one day.

Msfiestychick...I'm thinking about it I promise.

Handyman51...ok fair enough, well I need to get back to my paperwork here, so tomorrow same place same time?

Msfiestychick...same bat channel. Good night Handy:-)

Handyman51...goodnight Fiesty :-)

Matt smiled as he closed his laptop screen and looked down at his paperwork. Every night he chats with fiestychick he can't get her out of his head and he ends up awake all night trying to get some work accomplished. He didn't know anything about this girl, her name where she lived, heck even what she did for a living . Yet he knew so much about her, hobbies she loved places she's seen or wishes too, her fears, the list can go on and on. Yet his only problem is getting her to meet him. Yes he understood that meeting someone on the internet is not always truthful, or safe but he felt a connection to this girl, one he's never felt with anyone even as a kid. He hoped the opportunity wouldn't pass him by.

Matt's snapped out of his thoughts as Shay comes by knocking on his office door." Hey got a sec?"'

"Sure." Matt looks up as he clicks the laptop closed." What's up?"

"Um you think you could fix the cabinet in the kitchen? Otis broke it again." She asks rolling her eyes at the last part.

"Sure." He stands from his chair.

"Your in a rather good mood." Shay says in a teasing tone." What's going on with mystery girl there?"

"Nothing." Matt playfully shoves her arm." You better keep this to yourself." He gives her a pointed look.

"My lips are sealed." She motions with her fingers to her lips." But one question?"

"Shay..." Matt drags her name out." Alright one."

"Are you sure she's even a girl." Shay say throwing her arm around his shoulder." I mean you could chatting with anyone, like maybe it's some serial killer, or some crazy girl obsessed with firefighters, or ohhhhh maybe its an old man."

"Shay really?" Matt gave her a look as they walked towards the common room." An old man? You watch too much TV."

"But you didn't rule out serial killer." Shay stops and looks like she's in deep thought of more scenerios.

"Your nuts." Matt chuckles and shoves her again playfully." Your lucky I love you, roommate." He says before walking away into the common room as he calls out for Otis." Hey man what did you do now?"

Gabby walks into work at 5 a.m the next morning, still exhausted from her shift the day before, and maybe partly from her wondering thoughts of handyman51. She had this amazing connection with him, he seemed like the most amazing guy any women would dream to call hers. She knew so much about him, yet so little as well. She knew of his dreams and places to go and goals he set for himself, yet she was too afraid to meet him. Maybe it's the fear of the unknown, or liking things the way they are but hopes maybe she isn't blowing her fate by being so scared.

Gabby walked behind the nurses station saying good morning to her collieges before grabbing the first chart of patients that need to be seen. She laughed to herself when she sees the name on the chart and heads to curtain one, and quietly pulls it open." Back again Matt?" She smiles as he and Shay look up.

"Oh great." Shay beams." Gabby your on shift?"

"Hi Leslie." Gabby smiled moving around to Matt's side." Yeah I just got in. Then she turns her attention to the firefighter looking at her shy." What happened?" She points seeing to him holding gauze to his forearm.

"It's not a big deal." Matt says quiet." I just caught it on a piece of metal at the call we were just on."

"Let me see." Gabby says pulling back the gauze seeing a nasty gash there." You'll need stitches." She informs him as she looks up meeting his eyes." I'll need to have a doctor come in to take care of that." Gabby says quietly looking away from him.

"How are you liking it here?" Shay asks Gabby." Between you and I." She leans across the gurney closer to Gabby and whispers." The other nurses aren't as cool as you." And with that she makes Gabby blush and earns her a small tap from Matt.

"Don't mind her." Matt says with a tiny smile.

"No it's fine." Gabby smiles." It's nice to have made a few friends here since I just started, but let me get a doctor to take care of that." She says backing away towards the curtain." Just a... be careful next time." Gabby offers with a small smile then slips out the curtain.

"I think she likes you." Shay looks over at Matt talking in a teasing tone.

"I think she thinks your nuts." Matt teases back." Maybe she thinks your a serial killer?" He says sarcastic getting his best friend back for earlier that night, and then his mind drifts wanders back to Msfiestychick again and can't wait till they chat again.

Author's notes: I know this first chapter was rocky but I promise the story will pick up and explain more things in future chapters...please review and tell me if I've left you curious for more and would be interested for me to continue. Thanks Jamie.
