When Gabby arrived at the firehouse, she was late. She thought she would go unnoticed by everyone, but she was not so lucky. "Good morning, Gabriela" Chief Boden said firmly when he saw her approaching, Casey was beside him. "How many now? Two shifts you arrive late?" Matt felt bad for her, after all he had some guilt about it, he blushed for the reason she was late.

"Good morning, Chief. I'm sorry, this will not happen again" she said, and when she went past them ...

"You said that last time" Boden said and she turned to them, and this time after looking at the Boden she looked at Casey ...

"Don't worry, I meant it this time" she said firmly looking Casey. Chief thought that was weird for a moment and looked up to Casey. Casey felt the glare of Gabby, no it wasn't good. He would wait a while to find her and apologize to her.

"All right, I believe you," Boden said looking at her. She thanked giving a small smile at him and finally managed to go to the locker room to leave her bag. When Casey returned to the common room, Gabby was sitting at the table having a cup of coffee, she saw she had several missed calls from her friend Natalie and messages too. Casey wouldn'tbe able to wait long to talk to her, so decided to send a message to her, just to test the waters.

C: How are you?

When she received the message, she looked around and saw that he was near the coffeemaker.

G: Don't talk to me or send me message!

She picked up her cup of coffee and went to the bunker. Casey stood watching her, he was right: she was furious with him.

They had a very busy day in the firehouse, one call after another, because of that Gabby sent a message to Natalie saying that the next day she would call her. None of the messages that Natalie had sent, she said why she wanted to talk to Gabby, but Gabby suspected what could be and so she couldn't sleep that night, in the end she decided to watch TV, it was 1 a.m. when she made it up. She fell asleep an hour later on the couch and woke up at 4 a.m. when the firehouse had a new call. When they returned, it was the time to leave and go home. Gabby didn't know how, but Casey was already at her door when she came home.

"We need to talk," he said as he saw her.

"Really? I thought You'd come here for another reason," she said being sarcastic. She opened the door and he came right away. She didn't strayed far from the door after entering, hoping he understood the message and was soon leaving.

"I'm sorry. I'm guilty for you being late ... I" and Gabby cut him.

"What I said to you? Casey, I'm tired and we have work tomorrow, don't come. But what did you do?" she said annoyed.

"I came and we had sex a two times… I think" he said run his hair.

"Two? No, three times" she said crossing her arms.

"I didn't want causing problems for you," he said, and she knew he was telling the truth.

"Matt, look. I am responsible for it too. I could have said no when you came here in the previous nights our shifts, but I said yes. And when I tell you don't come, it's because I know myself. I know that if you are here, we will end up in my bed. "

"I get it, but I like to be with you, Gabby," he said with a half smile.

"You've made that clear,huh?" she said, and they laughed relieving some of the tension between them.

"I think I am going ..." he said. Gabby just nodded. When he was leaving ...

"Matt ..." he turned "... I'm really tired today, so I'll stay a few hours in the bathtub to relax, if that is enough for you, you can join me," Gabby said. It was enough for him, having Gabby in his arms was very good. After a few hours in the bathtub, Matt and Gabby made a small snack, and he went away and Gabby called to Natalie.

"Hi, Nat! How are you?"

"Hi Gabby. I'm fine, but perhaps I don't have good news for you."

"What is it, Nat?" Gabby asked fearing the worst.

"Cortez ... he's looking for you, Gabby. I'm sorry."
