Packing up their belongings after enjoying their week away and feeling more relaxed then they had been for a while, Sylvie puts the last items in her bag and zips it up before standing up and walking over to Antonio and wrapping her arms around him from behind.

Turning around to look at her, he leans down and places a kiss to her head.

"You ready to go?" he asks.

"Almost, but I need you to do something for me before we go." She says looking at him.

"Okay, you know I'll do anything for you, what is it?" Antonio questions.

"I need you to promise that when we return back home that you'll talk to someone as well, I've seen how it's affected you as well, and I know you feel guilty and you worry about me, and I love you for that, I do, but this will eat you alive if you don't talk to someone about it, I'm worried about how this is affecting you and I'll worry even more when we get back home and you return to work with you going out into the field all distracted, please do this and if not for you, then for me." She says.

"Baby, you don't need to worry about me, but if it's going to make you feel better, than I'll go, for you." He says looking down at her.

"Thank you" She says leaning up and placing a loving kiss onto his mouth.

…

"So Sylvie and Antonio are coming back today aren't they?" Matt asks Gabby as they walk from the car towards the firehouse.

"Yeah, they should be." Gabby says whilst readjusting the strap of her bag.

"What's up?" Matt asks with an eyebrow raised.

"I'm just worried, they've been through so much already since they got together and now this, I just wish they'd have a break from all of the drama." Gabby says.

"Well that's why Antonio organised for them to go away for the week wasn't it, to get away and relax and be away from everything." Matt states as he opens the door into the common room.

"Well yeah." She says following him towards the locker room.

"What else is up?" He questions leaning against the locker whilst Gabby put her stuff away.

"I'm just worried, that's all. She's my best friend and his my brother and I worry about them, I haven't spoken to either of them for a week, I don't know how they are doing, it's fine, they'll be back tonight and I can catch up with them once they've had a couple of days to settle in again." She says shutting her locker and turning to face him.

"If you're sure that's all it is." Matt says placing a kiss to her cheek before heading back to the common room to get some breakfast.

…...….

"What are you up to?" Antonio asks stepping out of their shower as he sees that Sylvie has gotten changed into a nice top with jeans instead of her pyjamas.

"I'm going to go to Gabby and Matt's house, apparently Gabby was a bit worried about us today but she was going to hold off on contacting us for a few days to let us settle back in." She says as she gets her keys, wallet and phone.

"Well then it can wait until tomorrow then." He says whilst taking the towel off from around his waist.

Smirking at him she turns around before replying "I know what you're up to, and it's not going to work this time, I'm not getting distracted by your body, your sister needs us so I'm going, with or without you."

Laughing he says "Fine, I'll put some clothes on then since it looks like we aren't staying home anymore.

"Well you don't have to come." She says as she walks towards their bedroom door.

"Oh yeah, because I'm just going to let you go off on your own to have fun whilst I sit at home all alone feeling sorry for myself." He replies pulling out some clothes to wear.

"Good, I'll meet you down in the lounge room, if you play your cards right, I'll reward you when we get back home." She says seductively before walking out of the room.

"You'll be the death of me Sylvie Brett." He laughs whilst getting dressed.

"And you love me for it." She yells out

"Damn straight I do." Antonio replies seriously.

….

"Hey, thanks for coming, it could have waited until tomorrow or a phone call, you didn't have to come tonight." Matt says answering the door and hugging Sylvie and Antonio.

"I did tell her that but she didn't listen." Antonio says before trying to take a step back when Sylvie smacked him on the chest.

"Please, I've been around him for a week straight, I could do with the break." She says with a smirk before entering the apartment.

"I'll remember that." Antonio replies as he follows Matt to the kitchen to get them some beers.

Walking into the lounge room, Sylvie smiles as she sees Gabby playing with Louie.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" Gabby asks.

"Hi to you too." Sylvie says with a smile as she waves to Louie.

"Not that I'm not happy to see you but didn't you guys just get back?" Gabby asks.

"Well yeah, but I'm a bit tired of spending day in and day out with your brother so I figure I'll come and see you and my favourite little man." Sylvie says as she takes a seat.

Looking at Sylvie for a moment, Louie gets off the couch and walks over to Sylvie before climbing onto her lap and showing her his plush toy truck.

"Hi little man, what have you got over there?" Sylvie asks.

"Truck." He says.

"Wow, it looks just like Daddy's." She says with a smile as Gabby watches on proudly.

"He missed you." Gabby says gently.

"I missed him too." Sylvie says as she hugs him and places a kiss to his forehead before he cuddles into her chest.

"Did you want him back?" Sylvie asks seeing him getting comfy on her.

"Nah, his right with you if you're okay with him falling asleep on you, no point upsetting him, I'll get him off you later once his completely zonked out." Gabby replies.

"Sure, no worries." Sylvie says as she subconsciously starts running her fingers his hair gently and slightly rocking him.

"You're a natural, he doesn't do that with just anyone." Gabby says.

"He makes it so easy." Sylvie says.

"It suits you, you know, having a toddler in your arms." Gabby says with a smirk.

"Really?" Sylvie asks.

"Really, have you thought about having kids of your own?" Gabby asks with a smile.

"Not really, I used to when I was younger, but now with my job and everything, it would just be too hard." Sylvie replies gently as Louie starts to close his eyes.

"You could make it work if you wanted to, Matt and I do." Gabby replies encouragingly.

"Well it's not going to happen, Antonio has Eva and Diego, he won't want another kid, let alone a baby and I'm fine with that." Sylvie replies.

"I think you'll find that with you he'd give you the world." Gabby replies.

"Yeah, well I'm not pressuring him, plus we haven't even been going out a full year yet." Sylvie replies.

"Well you've got the house so your part of the way there, just think about it." Gabby says as the guys walk in.

Slowly sitting down on the couch next to Sylvie, Antonio admires her with Louie for a moment before smiling.

"Put him to sleep did you?" He asks handing her the bottle of beer.

"Yeah, he just came right up to me, I love my little man." She replies looking down at Louie.

Leaning in towards her and whispering into her ear he says "I love seeing you with him." He says before placing a kiss to her cheek and placing his arm around her shoulder and turning his attention to his sister and Matt whilst noticing the smirk on Gabby's face, choosing to speak to her about it another time.
