Hi, sorry for not update. I had no inspiration and because that I was almost giving up to write again, however here I am. I hope you like this chapter and leave a review.
I didn't have time to review this chapter, sorry if you find out some mistakes.
"Why is Hallie calling you, Matt?" and she pushed him away.
"I don't know..." he tried to hide his nervousness. He didn't answer his phone and put it in his pocket, "I have nothing with her..." and he got close to Gabby again and put his hands in each shoulder of her.
"I am not saying you have something with her..." she stated to him and looked at him for a few seconds, "I need to help Shay outside...", but before she could step out of his grip.
"Wait..." he held her bringing her against his chest, resting his hands on her hips. "I love you..." and he kissed her on her lips and she kissed him back, "...stay safe out there..." and they kissed one more time before she walked out of locker room.
He walked to his office, took his phone and dialed to Hallie. After a few minutes she picked up the call. "What did I say about calling me?"
"I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't call you, but somehow the faucet in the bathroom broke and I don't know what to do..." she tried not to seem desperate hoping he would be running to help her. But what he didn't know was that Hallie had broken herself the faucet to have him in her house again.
"I'm at work right now, I can't help you..." he said in a quiet tone to not attract any attention, but he was really pissed off.
"Oh... I forgot it... okay... Do you know someone that can fix it for me?" she was angry with herself to break the faucet in a wrong time, she even had missed her work.
"Yeah... do you remember Harrison, that friend of mine? he is a retired firefighter now..."
"Oh yeah, Harrison, his wife worked once with me, a long time ago..." she said thinking about it.
"So, now he has this side job making little repairs, I will text you his number and please not call me again..."
"Okay... I get it... Gabby is around you right now?" Hallie asked and Matt didn't get why she was asking it.
"No, but she was a few minutes ago..." Now she was understanding why he was upset with her call.
"Hallie, I need to go..."
"Of course, sorry again and thanks for your help..." and they turn off. A few seconds later he received a text message from Hallie saying sorry again, after he read it he deleted the message, he couldn't risk Gabby seeing it anytime.
When Shay looked at Gabby getting close to the ambo, she noticed Gabby was upset. "Hey, what happened?" Gabby rested her back against the ambo and closed her eyes. Shay stared at her a few seconds and Gabby opened her eyes.
"Nothing... I just... I am not feeling good... like I said to you I drank too much last night..."
"I understand..." but Shay thought she was hiding something from her.
"You and Casey fought again?" and Shay joined Gabby resting her back against the ambo.
"No... we are good... I think... But something happened when we were..." and Gabby turned to looked at Shay and blushed.
"You were..." Shay continued.
"You know..." Gabby smiled and looked at her feet.
"Okay, I get it..." and Shay turned to looked at Gabby.
"So... his phone was ringing and a grabbed it and Hallie was calling him..." Shay scrunched her face.
"Why?"
"I don't know... he said he didn't know too and didn't pick up her call."
"What are you thinking?" Shay questioned her.
"Honestly? I hope she doesn't call again and she stays away of our lives..." Shay nodded as they heard the ring announcing a call for ambo 61.
When they were coming back to firehouse 51, Gabby asked to Shay to pulled over next to a gas station, because she was feeling dizzy. And without a warning Gabby got out of the ambo and ran to the bathroom. Shay got out too and locked the ambo and followed Gabby.
"Hey... what is that?" Shay asked worried. Gabby threw up again.
"I will buy a bottle of water for you and some wipers ... stay here..." When Shay returned Gabby was washing her face.
"Take here..." Shay offered wipers.
"I said I won't drink, now I won't eat Tay food so soon..."
"You think the food was spoiled? I didn't feel anything..." Shay said, arms crossed over her chest.
"You're lucky..." Gabby gave her a half smile and took the bottle of water from Shay.
"I think so..." for one second she thought in another reason to Gabby throw up, but she chose not scared her with her thoughts, maybe later.
"I'm ready to go..." Gabby spoke after taking other sip of her water. When they were getting close to the ambo, they received another call.
A few hours later at firehouse
"Before everybody get their deserve rest, I want see all of you at the barbecue on Saturday..." Otis raised his hand.
"Chief..." Otis attempted to say.
"No, excuses Otis, not this time..." Boden said sternly.
"Okay, Chief..." Otis was upset, but he knew he must not discuss with Chief.
"So... take your friends and family, let's have a good time, okay?"
"Yes, Chief..." Casey spoke. During the whole time of Chief's speech he was observing Gabby, she didn't seem well. After she got back from the last call, she passed the rest of the shift lying on the bed, Shay gave her some medicine, Casey stayed with her for a few minutes, Gabby really appreciated his attention. He wanted to take her to the hospital, but she assured him she was going to feel better soon.
"Chief... you know Gabby is not feeling well, but we will try to be there..." she was looking at Matt while he was speaking.
"Okay, if you need anything call me Gabby..." Boden asked.
"I will, thanks, Chief..."
"Now go home..."
Next day Gabby was feeling better and because that she decided to make breakfast for her and Matt. Carefully she got up from bed to not wake up him. Last night they went together to Navy Pier. Matt was not sure that was the best decision, because he was still worried about her health, however she said she was good, she had slept almost day, so Matt thought it in the end it would be a good idea, them enjoying themselves at a beautiful place.
"Morning..." Matt said hugging her from behind.
"No... you are not supposed to wake up..." Matt frowned after heard her and she pouted.
"Why?" and he turned her around and now he was facing her.
"... because I was going to take your breakfast at bed..." Gabby put her arms around his neck pulling him to her.
"Oh..." he pouted like her before. "I can back to bed... what do you think?"
"I think it's a good idea..." she smiled, "... and please act surprised..."
"Of course, I will... but with one condition..." he said serious.
"What?" she was looking intensely to him.
"Give my good morning kiss..." he gave her a mischievous smile.
"Hmmm... let me think..." she thought for a few seconds and she smiled widely to him. She kissed him and he deepened the kiss, he was already sneaking his hand in her pants, when she pushed him away.
"Hey..." he exclaimed breathless.
"No, sir..." she laughed at him. "Go to bed... and don't pout to me..."
"Okay... okay..." and he left her alone.
Suddenly her phone rang. "Morning, Shay..."
"Morning... are you feeling good today?"
"Yes, but I think I getting a cold, I slept almost all day yesterday..."
"Did you have your period this month..." Shay asked.
"No, why?" Gabby put two mugs on the tray for her and Casey.
"So you are late?"
"No, I think... Actually I changed my birth control two months ago, since then my period is crazy... But why are you asking?"
"Don't be mad with me... but you are having some signs of pregnancy..." Gabby got shock.
"No, Shay... I can't be pregnant, I'm not... Give me some days... and everything will be good, trust me..." Gabby was still scared about the idea, however she wasn't giving Shay something for her to be preoccupied.
"If you say so, I believe you..."
"Good... now I have to go... I see you at barbecue?" Gabby asked.
"Yes, see you there...bye."
A couple of hours later
"Hey, guys... why are you so late?" Shay asked after see them coming on her way. Gabby looked at Casey and smiled.
"We had some business going on, Shay... so..." he cleared his throat.
"Babe..." Gabby said blushing.
"I didn't say anything..." he complained.
"Although your face says at all, my friend..." spoke Severide and everyone started to laugh at them.
"I will grab a beer..." Gabby said.
"You think you are good to drink?" Casey asked Gabby before she disappear.
"I'm... don't worry..." and she kissed him on the lips and left them to grab something to drink and she was starving. A few minutes later Casey was alone watching his friends play soccer and someone tapped his back and he turned around to see who was.
"Harrison...?" Matt spoke surprised.
"Hi, Matt... It's a long time, isn't?"
"Yeah... yeah... how are you?"
"I'm good. Do you remember my wife, Cintia?"
"Of course, it's nice to see you again..." he said as he saw Gabby approaching them.
"Hi..." she said to them and Harrison and Cintia replied, Gabby knew them from the last barbecue, then Harrison looked at Matt.
"Oh, Matt you did a great job on Hallie's house..."
"What?" Gabby snapped. Matt's eyes wide and he tried to act surprised looking at Gabby briefly.
"I was on her house a few days ago to make a repair, she said you gave her my number... and I appreciate you for that..."
"I don't know what to say..." he felt the air leaving him and he looked at the ground. Gabby was in shock.
"Your construction job is in Hallie's house..." Gabby said quietly with much effort to no make a scene before everyone. He looked at her and said nothing, but Gabby knew the answer.
"Hallie told to Harrison that you two broke up... but she still loves you..." added Cintia. She and her husband didn't know about Gabby and Matt.
"Really...?" Matt said.
"Could you excuse me, I need to do something..." Gabby said and quickly walked out.
"Gabby..." Matt called her.
"So what do you think about a double date?" Cintia asked.
After left them Gabby started to walk not paying attention in what direction, when the tears attempted to fall, she started to run and from a few meters Shay saw her and felt that something was wrong. Shay watched Gabby running to the parking lot and followed her path.
"Gabby..." Shay heard Casey yelled in other direction. Gabby was far from Shay and Casey, until she bumped someone and when she lifted her head she saw Hallie.
"Gabby, hey... are you okay? You seem pale..." Gabby looked at her and thought all the things she wanted to say to her, then she heard Shay calling her.
"Matt is all yours..." she said angry and continued to run.
"Gabby..." Hallie exclaimed.
"Gabby... stop..." Shay yelled. "Please, stop..." When Gabby was crossing the street she didn't pay attention to the car that was coming.
"Gabby, no..." Matt cried out. The car hit her, the driver did what he could to stop, but he couldn't avoid the impact.
"Oh my God, Gabby..." Shay said when she got close to her. Gabby was unconscious. "Matt, call 911..."
What do you think?
