Did she just say… no she couldn't have just said that she asked him; could she? "Shay, please repeat what you just said nice and slowly to me what you said so I can process it again."
"I said I asked Severide and we are going to have a baby. But you can' tell anyone yet!" Shay added on quickly, she and Kelly had decided they were each allowed to tell one person but that it would only be that many people until they actually managed to get pregnant.
"I can't believe it, so you just asked him?"
"Why do you sound so surprised it was our idea in the first place!"
"Yea but I didn't think you would actually ask him it's Severide for god's sake!"
"Well I did ask him, he slept on it and this morning he said he would do it."
"Just like that?"
"Yep."
"God I always wanted to know what he was like in the sack if I'm totally honest you will have to spill the beans."
"Well in case you have forgotten this isn't my ideal situation!"
"So you're not even going to try and enjoy it."
"Dawson shut up!"
"Does he know what it will do to his womanizing ways?" Dawson asked laughing gently but she soon stopped as she saw the look on her friend's face. "Hey look I was kidding it he says he'll do this for you then I don't doubt he will. He was in pieces when you have your accident." She reassured her friend placing her hand on the base of her neck before the call interrupted them.
"Truck 81…Squad 3…Ambulance 61, respond to Westminster road 43, multiple car pile-up." (I have no idea if that's how the calls would work so sorry about that anyway)
"Let's go then." Shay sighed as they each slammed a door shut on the ambo, hopping in the driver's seat making her way out of the station first watching for the following fire engines behind her.
After arriving at the scene it became obvious pretty quick they were going to need more than one ambulance. "This is Dawson requesting back up to Westminster road, multiple car pile-up and I have several casualties I need to deal with."
"Back up on its way Dawson." The response came as she rushed to the side of another patient setting herself besides Shay.
"What have we got?" She asked pulling on her gloves to help seal the wound. "He has severe head lacerations and he had lost consciousness once already his girlfriend says so we need to get him in the first ambulance out of here. Pass me that collar Daw…" She was about to say as she was dragged by an angry looking man covered in blood.
"She can deal with him you need to help my son!" He shouted in her face dragging her across the road, fear instantly cursing through Shays body.
"Sir please let go of me I will deal with everyone as quickly as I can."
"No you will help her now."
Shay turned to look for help as she couldn't get out of the grip and spotted Casey about to make his way over when she felt the grip being plucked from her and a tall fireman stepped in front of her… 'Squad' she read on his jacket and instantly smiled… Severide.
Severide had been watching his men work and was moving to pull the car back when he saw the man grab Shay, he paused momentarily to see if she could handle it herself knowing she liked to be independent but the minuet he started getting over aggressive with her a switch triggered inside him and he dropped what he was doing to rush over easily plucking the man of his best friend. "I suggest you walk away and wait your turn. Sir. Because I swear if you touch her again I will be much, much more forceful I promise you." He warned before turning to Shay. "Hey are you alright?"
"Yea thanks but I got to get back and help Dawson."
"Got it, Victor!" Severide called running to where his team were cutting people out of cars. "You watch the girls!" He ordered a member of his team who instantly moved to protect the two paramedics as they worked, the order not missed by Casey who was confused; Shay and Severide was close but he had never seen him defend her like that.
"You okay?" Dawson asked as Shay returned to her side smiling like an idiot at Severide's reaction.
"Perfect!"
Casey walked into the locker room having slept after the accident for an hour or so frowning as he saw Severide sat there on his own when he was normally socialising with his Squad at least. Maybe it had something to do with his reaction over Shay earlier.
"You okay?" The younger lieutenant asked, he and Severide hadn't been like they use to be for a long time but he had seen some progress towards their friendship re building and maybe this would help if they could talk.
"Yea I'm fine, always am." Came the short reply, Kelly never being one to show his emotions a lot of the time.
"So you're not bottling things up like you /always/ do?"
"What would I be bottling something up Casey huh?"
"I don't know, something about Shay?"
"She told you?" Severide asked his face a clear picture of shock, not realsing he was giving the game away to Casey something was infact wrong with him.
"Yea how do you feel about it?"
"Well, I'm not sure I'm ready to be a dad but I'll give it a go for her, and when she kissed me it felt kinda… nice." He sighed running a hand through his hair.
"Wait what, Shay's pregnant! You guys kissed!"
"What you didn't know but you said?"
"I was bluffing to get you to talk."
"You son of a bitch!" Severide snapped shoving Casey.
"Well you want talk to me any other way and I wanted to help you."
"Why would Saint Casey help old Severide huh?"
"Because we were best friends or have you forgotten that?"
"No I haven't forgotten but things changed of have you forgotten that?"
"No, but do you really think he could want to see is this way? At each other throats constantly."
Severide stayed quiet and looked at the floor as he lent back against the lockers. " I guess you are the only one left I would even consider making my one anyway."
"Your one what?" Casey asked his tone full of confusion.
"My one to tell, me and Shay each have one person we can tell about what we are doing."
"And just what are you doing because I'm pretty sure Shay is gay."
"She is; but you know she wanted a kid right?"
"Right; she told all of us."
"Well, she asked me if I'd sleep with her and be the dad. I said yes and it's got my emotions all worked up."
"Are you trying to tell me you like Shay?"
"No, I'm telling you were having a baby and I'm a bit confused."
"That's why you went all macho on that guy today?"
"You saw that?"
"Yea, everyone did. Just presumed it was you guys bonding again. Makes sense now though."
"You cant tell anyone though, we each have one person to tell until she is actually pregnant and I'm putting my money on her telling Dawson so it's between us for okay?"
"Don't worry I got your back Kelly."
"Don't call me that!"
"Oh man you're going to be a dad!" Casey suddenly burst out laughing pulling his friend into hug.
"Get of me!" The elder lieutenant groaned but made no actual attempt to shove him off.
"Severide!" Cheif Boden called, his tone implying to both men he was about to get scaled.
