Hi how are you? This is my second one-shot, I published one namely "I need to know that I am not dreaming" based in the episode 2x20 some days ago.

Today I had watched the episode 2x21 and it was amazing but I don't like because until the next week what happen in her test =/. In reality, I would like that she passes it but I don't want it because that mean that she has to leave the firehouse fifty-one and it would be really sad, the firehouse will not be the same without her =(.

This one-shot is based on the finale of the episode 2x21 and the part of the promo of the episode 2x22

I can't wait to see the next episode poor Kelly, he didn't see the little boy, and Matt asking Gabby to marry him. I hope that nothing bad happen to any of them….

Anyway, I hope the you like this one-shot and let me some reviews with you opinion, during the weekend I will try to write the next chapter of "How to save a life" and "Let her go" I started but I want to do it right because it's now when the good part start.

Have a good day,

Namine Redfield


I'm not giving up my dreams

Matt was sitting in his truck looking through the window to the academy; one minute ago Gabby had started her last test to become a firefighter. He was so proud of her when he saw her entering in the smoke room, this time he was sure that she will pass without any problem. She was so excited when she saw that the truck was outside of the building waiting for her. He looked his watch "Two minutes. Come on Baby. You can do it" he thought.

"Don't worry Lieutenant" Hermann said patting his shoulder "she is going to pass"

"Sure" he said smiling. Nervous he looked again his watch "Five minutes"

The truck was in a deep silence nobody said anything. All their thoughts were put in Gabby; in that moment she would finishing of transporting the hose trough the stair, she only had to drag heavy doll about 10 meters and her exam will have finished.

"Como on baby" she had to appear again in any moment "Eight minutes"

"There she is" said Mouch

All of them jumped outside of the truck and looked her. She was serious and exhausted in her right hand she wore her helmet.

"And?" Matt asked when she arrived where they were

She looked them and said smiling "6:40" they all began to shout for joy.

"Congrats Baby" Matt hugged her tightly and kissed her on her forehead "I knew that you were going to pass the exam" he crashed his lips against her "who come tonight to Molly's? I pay the first round!" he said really happy for her "When will you know in which truck you are going to be the candidate?"

"Tomorrow" she said excited and sad at the same time. It was hard for her because fifty-one was her house during the last six years and now she had to say good bye to all of them and start in a new firehouse as a candidate.

He hugged her from behind, around her waist with his arms and laid his head on her shoulder "Come on" he kissed in her check "Let's come back to fifty one" he said smiling

As soon as Shay heard that Gabby had passed her examination she was screaming so happy for her friend. However, she was also sad because they were partner during the last six years.

"I can't believe you are going to be a female firefighter" she hugged her. They were sat in one of the tables of Molly's, the guys were in other table talking while they two were having a little girl talk. Since their shift finished some hours ago, Shay had the feeling that her friend needed it. She looked concerned by something.

"Thanks Shay"

"Ey, what's up?" she knows her better that anyone and she knows when something was bothering her friend "Is Casey? He doesn't like the idea of you being a firefighter"

"No" she said immediately "it's that I have to leave fifty-one" she said sad with tears in her eyes "You are one of my best friend and…" but she didn't continue

"and?"

"and nothing?" she stepped back and walked away from her.

"Gabriela Dawson, come back here" she ran after her and held her hand "tell me"

"I don't know if I want to be a firefighter anymore" she said crying

"Why? You were so exited"

"You said I were, but something has happen and I change my mind about it" she took something out of her pocket and showed it to Shay

"Oh my God" she said shocked "you have to talk with Casey"

/

Two days later, she didn't talk with Casey yet. She did not know how to tell him what she told Shay two days ago at Molly's. He seemed more excited because she passed her exam than she was and she did not want to give him the bad news that she would not be a candidate in any truck.

"Dawson, do you want to see me?" Chief Boden said opening the door of his office

"Yeah. It's about my candidate pots"

"Yeah. I saw it this morning. Truck 42, firehouse 34. It's a good firehouse. Congratulations" he said smiling

"I know Chief, but I can't be a candidate of that truck"

"Gabby I know that we have here a spot in truck 81 but you and Casey are together and he can't be your Lieutenant"

"I think that I have not explained well. I am not going to be a candidate in any truck, sir" she said

"Why?" he said shocked

"I have my reasons, sir"

"Alright, I will call to the academy and I will communicate them your decision"

"Thanks Chief"

"Just one more thing, this have something to do with Jones or all the people that is against female firefighter?" He asked concerned that her decision was based on that.

"No Chief. It is because of a personal reason"

/

After speak with chief Boden she went to the ambulance and helped Shay to restock the ambulance for the next call. Ten minutes later Casey walked to them. Looking his face Gabby could say that he was disappointed maybe he knows yet that she rejected her spot as a candidate in truck 42.

"Can I talk with you one second?" Matt said to Gabby. Gabby looked to Shay and she nodded. In silence both of them walked to the street where anyone could hear what they were going to discuss "Why you've rejected the pots in truck 42?" he said after looking her for a few seconds "I know the Lieutenant of that truck and he is a really good firefighter and you are going to be fine there. It's a great firehouse"

"How do you know it?" she didn't want that he found it by his own. She wanted to be the one who tell him but she never found the words and the encourage to do it

"The Lieutenant of the truck 42 had just called me and he said me that you had rejected the post in his truck" he was disappointed because she didn't say anything to him during the weekend. He felt a bit displaced from his life.

"Matt, I can't be a firefighter"

"Why not? That was your dream. You've been studying and training so hard during the last couple weeks to become a firefighter and now that you are, you are giving up" he said angry "So why you spent so many hours studying, if at the end you were going to give up. We were unable to go out or do things together during that time" he walked away from her still disappointed. He knows her and she had rejected something that was really for her was because of a reason. She wasn't the kind of person who gives up on the first opportunity, she was a fighter.

"Hold on Matt" she ran after him "hold on" she gripped his hand and forced him to look at her. "Matt, I'm not giving up my dream. I just change the order of my dreams and priorities"

"The order of your dreams and priorities? What do you mean?"

"Matt in this moment my dream is not be a firefighter" she took a deep breath "This wasn't way in which I wanted to tell you but I can't be a firefighter because I'm pregnant and I am carrying our baby" she said touching her belly

"pregnant?" he whispered not couldn't believe what she had just said "are you sure?"

"Not really. I found it the night after I did my final test. I had a delay I thought that it was because of the street and I decide to make a test and it was positive"

"Why you didn't say me?" he said still shocked

"I was scare" she admitted "but I want you to know it" she put her hand in each side of his face "I know that your dream is to be a father. And pregnancy tests can fail, they are not accurate. The last thing I wanted was to give you hope and find later that I wasn't pregnant. I had an appointment this morning and my doctor confirms it. I am six week pregnant" she looked him and saw that he was smiling. He hugged and crashed his lips against her kissing her with passion while his hands were resting in her belly. He could not believe it, Gabby was giving up her dreams for him. He broke the kiss and looked her

"Gabby, I appreciate that you give up your dream because of my dream but" she put her finger in his mouth and said

"Like I said I am not giving up I just change my mind. And this baby" she touches his hand that was still resting in her belly "Is not only your dream, it also my dream" she kissed him, biting his lips.

He broken again the kiss and stepped back knowing that this was the moment that he was waiting since the last week when he bought the ring. He was so nervous, his hands were shaking and he doubted if he'd be able to say what he had rehearsed during so long without stuttering. Pulling out the small box from his sweatshirt pocket, hidden it behind his back and knelt in front of her.

"Matt?" she said nervous "what are you doing?"

"Gabriela Dawson" he took a deep breath "You are the most incredible and amazing person that I have ever met. Every morning when I wake up and see that you are sleeping cuddled to me and I wonder how I can be so lucky to have you in my life. So, Gabriela Dawson, will you marry me?" he said with tears in his eyes showing her the ring that he chosen for her.

"oh my God" she said covering her mouth with her hands not couldn't believe that Matt was knelt in front of her asking her to marry with him "Yes" Both of them were crying because of the emotion. With his shaking hands he took the ring and put it on her finger.

"I love you" he rose and kissed her in her lips.

"I love you too"

"Thanks Gabby" she hugged resting her head in his chest.
