Song: Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi
Author's Note: Thanks for the reviews/reactions to the last chapter! I'm so glad you all liked it! Just a heads up, the next few might be kinda sad or not very happy ones for our couple; I'm trying to knock out as many song suggestions as I can.
*Thank you, Celineherondale22 for suggesting this song!
PS: I LOVE my surprise emails I get with reviews from all of you! You are all amazing!
I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to save me
This all or nothing really got a way of driving me crazy
I need somebody to heal
Somebody to know
Somebody to have
Somebody to hold
It's easy to say
But it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you numbed all the pain
Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
"Hey, do you wanna dance?"
Brett looked up from her drink and at the man in front of her who just asked her to dance, "Umm...I'm not really the dancing type."
The tall, dark handsome man in front of her grinned, "Listen, I promise I'm not a pro on Dancing With The Stars or anything, I just saw you sitting here alone and figured I'd ask the prettiest girl in the room to dance."
Brett laughed before she stood up from her chair and put her hand in the man's before her, "I'm surprised you even know what Dancing With The Stars is."
"My ex-girlfriend forced me to watch it with her every week."
"Ohhh, that explains it." Smiled Brett.
"You know I just realized that I asked you to dance before I asked your name."
Brett giggled, "Yeah, I was waiting for you to ask me. My name's Sylvie."
"Sylvie?"
"Yep, what about you?" Asked Brett as she saw Foster and Kidd gather at the table out of the corner of her eye.
"Oh, my name's Christian."
Brett smiled, "Well, it's very nice to meet you, Christian."
"You too, Sylvie."
I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to turn to
This all or nothing way of loving got me sleeping without you
Now, I need somebody to know
Somebody to heal
Somebody to have
Just to know how it feels
It's easy to say but it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you helped me escape
Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
"Hey, man how do you feel about meeting up with the girls after we finish our beers?"
Casey looked up at Severide and shrugged, "Sure. Is it just Kidd and Foster?"
Severide noticeably cringed, "Actually, it seems that Brett decided to join them."
"Oh," Whispered Casey as he picked up his beer and gulped down the rest of the drink.
"Listen, man, I know things have been weird for the both of you since Gabby came back and kinda broke the two of you up, but you all gotta get past it."
Casey nodded, "I know. It's just hard because I really felt something for Sylvie."
Severide felt bad for his friend as he listened to him, "I know you did, man."
Both men sat there for a little while longer before they paid their tab and made their way to join the girls across town.
And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes
I fall into your arms
I'll be safe in your sound 'til I come back around
For now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
"So, Sylvie tell me about yourself. What do you do?"
Brett smiled as she felt him pull her into him even more, "I'm actually a paramedic."
"Wow. Really? That's great!"
Brett nodded, "What about you? What do you do?"
"I'm a lawyer."
"That seems...fun." Giggled Brett.
"It can be, but it can also be extremely boring.
"I bet." Agreed Brett before she looked up at the door and saw the man she thought she was gonna spend the rest of her life with a few short months ago.
"Who's that?" Asked Christian as he saw Brett's eyes follow the two new men that just walked through the door.
"Umm...just someone I thought loved me."
Christain didn't respond to that he just pulled Brett in close and continued to sway with her on the dance floor.
Casey stared at them the whole night. His eyes didn't find anything else except for her. 'Maybe I still have a chance with her. Maybe she still loves me like I love her.' Thought Casey as he watched Brett walk over to where Kidd and Foster were and grab her coat and purse before she walked back over the man she spent the night with and left.
Maybe.
But now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
