4 days later

''He is awake and the MRI said that there is no damage in the auditory system of his brain so we don't know why he is not talking.'' The doctors said to Gabby and Severide. Gabby nodded slowly.

The doctor checked his vitals again and walked out then. Kelly felt really hopeless because Matt Wasn't Talking now he was finally awake. But they hoped that time would make him talk.

''hey, I got to go, I have to sleep, I am exhausted from shift.'' Kelly said then and he laid his hand on Gabby's shoulder just for a second as he got up and looked at Matt, his eyes closed.

''See you body, hope you will tell us all your exaggerated stories soon again.'' Kelly smirked and he walked out then. Gabby kept sitting by Matt, worried because he was getting so thin. He was still on the feeding tube but he was losing his muscle tone ad body fat so fast and it worried her.

Matt opened his eyes, not sure where he was and he looked around as much as he could, but he was not able to move his head or his body. The ceiling was white and everything was so blurry. All he could move was his hand and it felt like somebody was holding it.

''Good that he opened his eyes again.'' The doctor smiled as he came walking in to check on Matt.

''Can I take him outside, for a walk? Just through the garden but I think it would nice for him to get some air outside.'' Gabby asked then, hoping that it would make him feel a little bit better, the fresh air.

''I think that would be a nice idea.'' The doctor said and Gabby smiled as he walked out to get some nurses and Gabby moved closer to Matt.

''We are going outside, I hope the fresh air will make you feel a little better.'' She said then, his eyes still not really looking at her but just staring at the ceiling.

He tried to move but there was something under his chin that kept his head from moving.

A few nurses came walking in and one pushed a wheelchair and she got up.

''Can I help?''

''Oh no, we will manage.'' She said and Gabby looked down. She wanted to help Matt but was not able to do it. She looked how they got him off the IV's and disconnected the feeding tube and suddenly she saw his eyes move and he looked almost confused.

''Hey babe…I am going to take you outside for a walk, that is all.'' She said then, hanging above him and smiled at him and he looked at her for a second and she moved back then, happy that he was looking at her. It was something small but now it seemed to big, that he had finally looked at her again.

The nurses held him so he could sit up and held him as one tried to put a shirt over his upper body and the brace and after some struggling, it worked and they lifted him up and put him in the wheelchair. His leg was on a rest as it was still in the cast and the nurses adjusted the headrest, as Matt had to lay back with the brace around his upper body and the neck. She felt so bad for him but was glad that she could take him outside. She still really hoped that the fresh air would make him feel a little better.

The nurse took a blanket and laid it over his lower body and over the stretched leg and she was worried he was going to be cold but the sun was shining outside and the blanket seemed pretty warm.

''Are you comfortable?'' Gabby asked but Matt only kept looking in front of him and she looked down, wasn't even sure why she had asked. He wouldn't answer and she was scared that he would never saw something again. Everything was so scary right now.

Slowly she started to push the wheelchair. She went outside and made a spall round through the garden the hospital and sat down in the grass then and smiled at him. But because of the neck brace, she was too low for him and moved the wheelchair to a bench and sat down in front of him so he could see her…if he was looking. He looked so thin and pale and she was so worried about him.

It was so weird, he no longer felt like he was in a memory, it seemed much more real now.

Matt looked at the woman in front of him and wanted to say something, but sad and scared he didn't dare to say anything. But she smiled at him and there was something in the brown eyes that looked so trusted.

''Come on, I know you can hear me and that you are here.'' She said and he pinched in her hand, out of nowhere and they smiled. She smiled and carefully she kissed him on his lips, careful not to touch the feeding tube. Looking back she smiled at him and she smiled back, caressing the side of his face, so happy that they were finally together again.

''You don't have to talk if you can't.'' She said, still caressing the side of his face, trying to move a little closer so it was easier for him to look at her.

He couldn't remember who she was but she had kissed him. The brown eyes that kept looking at him..he was sure he knew her. Her voice…he had heard it before in the memories.

''Hmm, it is getting colder, let's get back inside, right?'' She said with a smile and she grabbed the wheelchair again.

She pushed the wheelchair back inside and the nurses helped him back on the bed and attached him back to the IV's and put the tube back and left the two of them alone then. She sat up really high again because he couldn't see otherwise because of his neck brace and she sat down on the edge of his bed, caressing his hand again.

''G-Gabby?'' He whispered then and she smiled at him and nodded and kissed him again. Smiling at him, she was so grateful he was back.


NOTE: The doctor is worried because Matt is awake but is not talking. Gabby won't go away from his side and after some effort the nurses got him in a wheelchair so that Gabby could take him outside and he could get some fresh air and outside he finally became a little better and recognized Gabby and in the end he even spoke to her and she is so happy she finally has him back and will he finally recover now?

Please tell me if this chapter jumped too fast from the last one.

Upcoming: Is Matt finally going to talk and how will the first protest at the firehouse go? We are also going to get a few more flashbacks.
