Sylvie is still worrying about Matt while Will is checking her blood pressure "ok your blood pressures high It's probably because you're worried about Matt at the moment, but still come in in a few days so I can keep an eye on you BP, if it stays high your off work though." Will says Sylvie sighs and say "okay" I'm cut off by Maggie coming in and saying " incoming traumas, that fire at the hotel is bad they are bringing in ambo after ambo of victims.
"Any fire fighters" I ask and she shakes her head "I'm sure he's ok Sylvie but I gotta go. You're free to go."
He says
Sylvie starts to leave when she runs into foster "hey" Sylvie says "how is the fire " she also hoping everyone from 51 is ok.
"Bad Sylvie " she starts to say more but gets cut off by her radio.
"May Day May Day firefighters down its Casey and Serveride and a child needs Ambos on hand and assistance" Herman says and as Sylvie hears Matt's name She panics, all She can think is the worse. I grab onto the desk and start bawling April comes over "foster I got her, go."
Foster arrives back on scene to see Casey being carried out of the building followed by Serveride and the little girl.
"What happened?"
"Roof collapsed, nothing we could doCasey and Serveride ran to get the kid and on their way back the floor caved." Herman says pale as a ghost Stella comes running over
" are they ok?" She asks
"They got a pulse but not breathing help me bag them."
"Brett was with me when the call came in over my radio she collapsed. April took her I have to get her back." Foster tells Kidd
"Oh shit you know she's having twins, the stress can't be good for the three of them." Stella says while they both work on Matt and Severide. " what I didn't know she was having two baby's." foster says surprised
" yeah Matt told us when we got here. " Stella says
" okay let's get them to med you ride with me I need someone in the back I'm sorry " foster says know Stella would wanna go with kelly
" it's fine let's go."
The ambos arrive at med and I'm waiting in a room with oxygen on . Sylvie can hear the commotion though and knows they are here. She runs out and she sees matt, he's unconscious and has burns and what looks to be a broken leg.
"Matt baby please hear me." Sylvie say once She reach Matt's side
"We will do everything we can for him Sylvie." Conner Rhodes says
By this time everyone from the house had showed up and Herman and joe took me to the waiting room She felt like She couldn't move.
It felt like a lifetime waiting for to come back all Sylvie could think about is these two perfect baby's in my belly might grow up without a dad.
Her thoughts are interrupted by Will. He told everyone that Kelly was fine and back in his room and Stella could go see him. She gave Sylvie a sorrowful look but Sylvie tried smiling it didn't work. Sylvie asked will " any news on Matt?"
He just patted her on the shoulder and said no and left.
It's 2am and the house is out of service as everyone's at the hospital. Sylvie gets a wave of nausea and foster and Kidd followsher .
"Brett you okay?" Foster asks Sylvie
Right then and there Sylvie finally loses it. She broke, she slumps to the cold Hospital floor and bawls her eyes out her best friends on either side of her. "I'm not okay what if…" She can't bring her self to say it out loud but it's all She thought about all day. "Hey listen you can't think like that. You and your baby's are going to have Matt."
Stella and foster glance at each other as they all hear a commotion out in the waiting room.
"Oh...god… please .no." Is all Sylvie managed in short breaths
"We don't know anything yet." Foster says and we head out
"What's ..wrong?" Sylvie ask Rhodes when I see him in the waiting room.
"Matt's our of surgery, he's fine, he's going to make a full recovery. Matt has a broken leg but besides that he's fine you can go see him." Conner says and everyone erupts into cheers and Sylvie smiles and leans onto stella and hugs her.
—-
It's now 8am and Matt's been out of surgery since 2am but sleep ya most of the time. everyone's gone home besides Stella who's bouncing between me and Matt and kelly and foster hasn't left my side.
"Mmhm" Matt groans
"hey there sleepy head"
Sylvie says
He opens his eyes
"Hey beautiful "
He manages before taking a deep breath
"Oh Matt, you made me so scared."
"I'm sorry Sylvie you shouldn't have to worry about me like this."
"I'll give you two a minute and go get Rhodes" foster say and Sylvie smiles appreciatively at her.
She leans her forehead next to Matt's She start crying for the millionth time in two days
"Oh Matt I couldn't stop thinking of the worse when I saw you come in." Sylvie says
"I'm sorry, but I will always promise to try to come back to you and our children." Matt says and sylvie and Matt kiss
Matt knows Sylvies is still reeling from the events of the fire.. It's been a week since the hotel fire and Matt's still stuck in the hospital, doing rehab with his leg. Sylvies gone home to shower and rest when Matt decides to text Severide

its been a little longer then half an hour since sylvie texted matt shes just pulling into med when she sees stella and kelly leave.
she makes her way to matt's room but its dimly lit so she turns on the light and start to say "hey baby why is it dark in-" when it sylvie gets cut off by what she sees
matt is sitting in a wheelchair with burger and fries and ice cream and sodas and red roses surrounding him he's holding a single rose while wearing a white dress shirt and grey jacket
"hi beautiful" he says
" hi " sylvie says as she walks over to him and give him a gentle kiss and say "whats all this "
"i wanted to show you how much you and the babys mean to me but i want you to know even if you weren't pregnant i'd still love you with my whole heart." he pause for a second "i know you have been upset since the fire and about thinking i'm not happy that we are having twins but i want you to know i'm thrilled about starting a big family with you and i'm with you, i wouldn't want to do this with anyone else." matt says
"oh matt thank you , you have no idea how much this all means to me " sylvie says and sits beside him.
he hands her the rose in his hand and leans in and says " i love you sylvie brett."
She start to say it back but something on the rose catches her eye….
she looks again and it's a beautiful princess cut diamond ring. sylvie looks from the ring back to matt stunned
"i love you, Sylvie and i want to spend the rest of my life with you. i had planned this before the accident but didn't get to ask you before everything happened i don't want you to say yes out of obligation or because you think it's the right thing to do i want you to say it because you truly want to spend the rest of our lives together. "
"so sylvie brett will you marry me?"
" ohh matt if course i'll marry you i love you so much and it feels right with you.. with us."Sylvie says and puts a hand on her belly and matt smiles
he takes the rose from sylvie, takes the ring from the leaf it was on and slides it on her ring finger!
They spend the rest of the night happy and thankful.
