''It's too hot to go to school!'' Glenn complained as they just had started school again and it was incredibly hot in Chicago. ''I wanna wear shorts!'' He yelled and Kelly shrugged.
''Then you wear shorts.''
The boy changed again and Aiden looked Kelly. ''He never dares to wear shorts because he is afraid kids would bully him because of his leg brace but it was so hot even Glenn didn't seem to mind anymore.
''Come on guys.'' Kelly said as he hurried through the kitchen to get the Casey's ready in time for school. He loved it when the kids stayed over with him when Matt and Gabby were out of town but it was always chaotic.
''I don't want ham! I want cheese!'' Aiden said in disgust as he looked at Kelly making his sandwich.
''Errr...Who of you two likes ham?'' Kelly asked as he looked at Glenn and Lauren and Lauren took it from him, put it in her lunchbox.
''What do you want on your sandwich, Glenn?'' He asked then and Glenn looked at the the stuff on the counter that was available for on the his sandwich.
''Cookies.'' He decided then with a cheeky smile but Kelly looked at him and he shrugged. ''Marmelade is okay too.''
About fifteen minutes later Kelly sighed relieved as he got all the kids in the car in time, dressed and with their bags packed for school. He dropped them off and they walked onto the playground and Lauren ran to her own friends while Glenn suddenly took Aiden's hand.
''Don't you think uncle Kelly is lonely...he doesn't have a girlfriend.'' Glenn said then as he thought how happy mommy and daddy were together and Kelly hadn't had a girlfriend since two year ago.
''What are you thinking about Glenn?'' Aiden asked as his little brother had the look on his face that he was thinking...and usually his little brother came with the brightest ideas.
''My teacher told she is looking for a guy.'' He suddenly said and they looked over the playground, at the brunette talking with some kids by the swings.
''How old is your teacher?'' Aiden asked.
''I dunno...old!'' Glenn said then with the logic as a kid and Aiden smirked.
''Kelly is old too?''
Glenn looked up and shrugged. ''He is grayer than daddy! But he is not old.''
Aiden just laughed it off. Looking at the woman he guessed she was Kelly's age. Maybe Glenn was right...maybe they could try.
''In the break...we will figure something out!'' Aiden said as the bell rang they both went to their own classroom.
''Miss...do you have a boyfriend yet?'' Glenn asked as the break started two hours later and she looked at him.
''No...why?'' She asked with a friendly smile.
''Nothing.'' He said with a mysterious smile and he walked outside, sitting down next to his brother on the bench as they shared a pack of cookies.
''We have to get Kelly to meet her.'' Glenn decided and Aiden nodded.
''Maybe...maybe...maybe...'' Glenn was thinking as he was eating the cookies.
''Maybe I can act like I am sick so will Maya will be there when he picks me up!'' Glen said then, eating the last cookie. Sometimes Aiden had the feeling his brother was converting cookies into ideas and Glenn stood up.
''I will act like I fall and act like I am really hurt so Kelly will pick me up.''
In the spur of the moment Aiden thought it was a good idea.
Then he wanted to stop his brother, afraid he would hurt himself but Glenn had already started running.
Suddenly, while running to the teacher Glenn fell forward, his knee scraping the stones of the playground as well as his hand and he started to cry. Aiden bit his lip as it was not his intention he would really get hurt and the teacher ran towards Glenn, shocked.
Glenn was sobbing and Aiden ran towards him as well.
''Awwe...that looks nasty.'' His teacher, miss Maya said as he looked at the bleeding knee and hand and she took him inside.
''I...want...Kelly!'' Glenn sobbed as he teacher carried him inside and he looked Aiden over Maya's shoulder for a second. Aiden felt bad his brother was really hurt but their plan was working, the teacher seemed to feel so sorry for Glenn. She put him on a chair in their class room and Aiden went to take a wet paper towel to lay against his knee and clean the dirt away while Maya walked away to call Kelly.
''It worked.'' He whispered at Glenn but Glenn looked back at him with a pout.
''I really want Kelly now.'' He sobbed then and he looked at the blood in his hand that was flowing from the cuts and scrapes.
Maya returned with cleansing fluid and bandage and Glenn started to cry even harder now and Aiden was not sure if he was crying so hard because he was trying to overdramatize things or because he was really afraid for Maya disinfecting his knee.
''It's okay Glenn...It's just going to sting a little but I need to clean it.'' She said and Glenn nodded but started to cry again when the cloth with disinfection touched his knee.
''I want Kelly.'' He sobbed again and Maya looked up at him.
''Glenn, you are a big boy...I am sure you can stay at school till the end of the day, right?'' She said with a friend smile.
''I want Kelly!'' He cried now from the top of his lungs and Aiden looked at Glenn's teacher. ''Maybe it's better to call Kelly. His left hand could be injured.'' Aiden said, something he was really worried about as Glenn didn't have much feeling in that hand.
''Do you know your uncle's phone number?'' Maya asked as she gave her phone to Aiden and he nodded. Quick he called Kelly.
''Glenn fell really hard at school...he might have injured his left hand.''
A minute later he handed the phone back to Glenn's teacher and Maya took it from him and after bandaging his knee she looked at his hand. There was a deep cut in the skin just above the brace and maybe Aiden was right and they should have it get looked at.
The door to the classroom opened and Kelly walked inside. He lifted Glen up, whom was still crying and the boy hugged Kelly, glad he was finally here.
''I will take him to a doctor.'' Kelly said and Maya nodded.
''Hope it's nothing...hope you feel better, Glenn.'' She said as she rubbed through his hair as he was crying with his face in Kelly's neck.
''Come...let's get that cut looked at.'' Kelly said as he comforted the boy as they walked to the car and Glenn was still crying.
''Is your hand hurting?'' He asked worried as he drove to the hospital but Glenn shook his head.
''A little bit..just the cut.''
Kelly wanted to sure and drove him to the ER where they waited untill they got helped.
''Aye...that's gonna need some stitches.'' The doctor sighed as she looked at the cut and Glenn looked at Kelly, terrified.
''Hey..it's gonna be okay.'' Kelly comforted him but then he looked at the doctor. ''His left hand is almost completely paralyzed and his feeling is distorted...maybe he should get some X-rays.''
The doctor nodded and took Glenn with her for some x-rays and Severide sighed. He called Shay if she could pick up the twins at school as he didn't know how long things would take here.
The doctor and Glenn returned a little later and Kelly held his hand as he was getting stitches, as nothing in his hand was broken luckily.
''Let's get knee pretty patch, don't you think?'' The doctor said friendly as Glenn was wiping his tears away and he slowly nodded. She got a large patch from the cabinets.
''Do you like Cars or soccer?'' She asked and Glenn dried his tears away.
''Soccer.'' He said then and carefully she removed the bandage and put the plaster over the wound on his knee.
Kelly and he walked out of the ER a few minutes later and they went home after picking the twins up at the firehouse and while the twins played outside, Glenn was still shaken from the hospital visit and he was on the couch. Aiden joined him them.
''Sorry you hurt yourself.'' He said sad but Glenn shrugged, a little sad though.
''I got cookies.'' He sighed then, pointing at the bowl on the table Kelly had given him as comfort food and he handed one to Aiden.
''It didn't work.'' Aiden said sat as he looked at his brother's bandaged hand and wounded knee. It had been a bad plan to begin with and he felt guilty Glenn was hurt now.
''Good thing it's my left hand.'' Glenn said then, dryly and Aiden looked as Kelly was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
''Should we propose he calls miss Maya?''
''No.'' Glenn sighed then as he took another cookie when Kelly's phone rang and he took it.
''Yeah...he got stitches but he is alright...yes, he will be at school tomorrow.''
Hopeful Aiden and Glenn looked at Kelly calling in the kitchen.
''...yes, he was probably upset because the fall shocked him...yes...no problem...thank you for calling me...I'd like that a lot...do you know Molly's? Next Saturday? Great!''
Kelly hung up the phone and looked at the boys staring at him from the couch.
''That was your teacher, asking how you are, Glenn. I wonder how she got my number.''
''We called you with her phone so your number was in there.''
Kelly nodded and walked back to the kitchen and Aiden looked at Glenn, open mouthed.
''I think he is taking her to Molly's!''
''Kelly are you taking my teacher to Molly's!'' Glenn asked as he walked to Kelly in the kitchen and Kelly laughed.
''Don't tell anybody at your school, buddy.''
Glenn laughed and held the basket out he had had the cookies in, which were finished now.
''Can I more cookies? I hooked you and Maya up.''
''You fell so I would meet Maya?!'' Kelly said, surprised and almost angry.
''No...yes...but she is pretty isn't she!?''
Kelly laughed and didn't know if he should get mad at the boy or hug him.
''Yeah...you love doctor.'' Kelly laughed as he handed Glenn one more cookie and Glenn walked back and sat down next to Aiden.
''He had got a date with Maya...the love doctor did his work.''
''You are the love doctor now?'' Aiden laughed.
''Yes...and you are my amateur assistant.'' Glenn smiled proud as he ate his cookie.
NOTE: Oh, the love doctor and the love amateur did their work really well! Do you think they really did their best getting their uncle a date? Hopefully Glenn's injury was not for nothing and they actually got their uncle a girlfriend! Don't you also think Glenn is slightly eccentric in a good way?
I know Kelly is not technically their uncle but I bet Matt and Gabby would tell the kids to call Kelly their uncle ;)
