It's Saturday morning, Matt wakes up and runs his hand over his face to try to get the sleep out of his eyes.
The sun is beaming in through sylvie's childhood room at her parents place. Matt looks over to sylvie by his side, her hair is highlighted by the sun, the sun is glistening all over her she looks like an angel. His angel the one that saved him. The one that is giving him everything he's every wanted out of life, and he couldn't be happier that it's with sylvie.
Matt puts a hand on sylvie's baby bump and rubs circles with his thumb. He starts talking to the babies in a hush tone.
"Hello my little darlings, I don't know if you can hear me yet, but I love you two and you mommy more than anything. I've never felt a love so powerful as I do to the three of you. " Matt sayings lovingly, sylvie is awake by now and heard the whole thing. She has tears of pure joy tuning down her face, she turns to Matt and says "we love you to. You are my soulmate Matt Casey."
Matt smiles at sylvie and then kisses her deeply. "Your my soul mate as will sylvie Brett." Matt says when he pulls away from the kiss.
"We should probably get up it's already 9am." Sylvie says reluctantly
Matt sighs and says "true, your parents might need my help with setting up." Sylvie smiles as she tells Matt "your to nice you know that?" He laughs as he gets up and leans down for one last kiss before getting in the shower. "I try."
They both chuckle at this and Matt goes towards the door, then turns towards sylvie and asks "wanna jump in the shower with me?" With a smirk .
"Absolutely." Sylvie says going and getting up but is stop short by a sudden twitch in her belly. "Ouff." Sylvie says holding on her belly. Matt rushes to her side "are you okay?" He asks, she smiles up at him and tells him "better than okay, our babies just kicked me." Matt smiles brightly and asks "may I feel?" "If course." She tells him and directs his hand to where one baby kicks again, and hard. "Wow they have some powerful little legs already." Matt tells sylvie. "I know we are going to have soccer players on our hands I think." They both chuckle, Matt leans down and kisses sylvie's bumping then kisses kisses sylvie "I love you all so much." He tells her. "We love you to Matt."
They get interrupted by a small knock on the door letting sylvie know it's her mom.
Matt groans but sylvie laughs and says "come in."
"Hi sorry to interrupt anything but breakfast is ready, and Matt I was hoping you could help set up tables and stuff." Lucy says with a sweet smile. "Sure thing Lucy." Matt says and sylvie tells her mom "we just felt the babies kick for the first time." With a wide smile." Lucy squeals a little with delight then she walks over to where sylvie and Matt are standing and says "that's wonderful are they still kicking?"
"Yes, would you like to feel?" Sylvie asks her mom. Lucy replies with a wide smile and a nod.
Sylvie directs her mothers hand to where the babies are still kicking.
"Oh wow." Lucy exclaims with her free hand over her mouth in shock.
"I'm so happy for you two." Lucy tells Matt and sylvie.
"Thanks mom that means a lot to me." Sylvie says hugging her mom.
"Means a lot to me to." Matt says .
"We should probably get dressed and head down." Matt tells sylvie. "Yes I'll leave you two to get dressed see you in a few." Lucy tells them and head out of the room.
Matt and sylvie shower and get dressed, then head down stairs.
"Good morning sleepy heads." Josh says playfully.
"Hey, we are up between 5am and 6 am for work and the when we are at work we usually get no sleep for 24 hours so on our days off we like to sleep in." Sylvie says slapping Josh's arm playfully.
Matt chuckles and the siblings banter.
They eat their breakfast as josh is pumping the questions to Matt.
"So how long have you been captain for?" Josh asks matt gulps remembering what made him captain.
"3 years." Matt says taking another bite of his egg.
"How long have you known you wanted to be a firefighter." Josh asks
"All my life." Matt replies smiling. That's one thing that's always been the same in his life and that's being a firefighter and the want to be one.
"How many times have you been engaged?" Josh asks
Sylvie steps in this time and says "josh don't you think it's enough with the 20 questions." Sarcastically rolling her eyes.
Matt chuckles and puts his hand on sylvie's hand, then says "it's fine babe, he just wants to get to know me." Sylvie sighs and nods.
"This will be my third, my first fiancé was murdered and my second we got married but she left me to go to puerto rico and now I'm marrying sylvie. " Matt says smiling at sylvie.
"Wow you've had worse luck than sis." Josh says with a dry chuckle.
"Very funny." Sylvie retorts.
After a few more questions about Matt and then about all his problems with gabby, they go out to the big open back yard to stars setting up the folding tables that they store in the storage barn.
Sylvie's making the food inside.
They put all the tables together and get everything ready when sylvie comes out to tell Matt that Christie , his sister had called to get directions again as violet Hadn't written them down the first time.
Matt chuckles, as Lucy and Kevin come over to join Matt and sylvie and josh comes over to.
"So I just wanted to let you know that the few neighbours that we had invited I told them that the party was canceled-" sylvie cuts her mom off by asking "why, is it really canceled?" Worriedly.
"No but after last night and you two running into Harrison and Kyle, I didn't think you needed to see anime else from here so it's just your Chicago family and Matt's sister and niece and us." Lucy says happily.
"Thank you mom that means a lot to me." Sylvie says as she hugs her mom.
"It means a lot to both of us." Matt says.
"Well I finally realized that maybe the people around here doesn't treat you the way you should be treated." Lucy says patting sylvie's hand.
"Thank you, thank you both." Sylvie says to her par.
"No problem pumpkin, we are always here for you no matter what." Kevin says happily.
Just then the familiar mustang pulls up the driveway.
"Severide, Kidd and foster are here." Sylvie says excitedly.
"I can't wait for you guys to meet them." Sylvie says over her shoulder as she races to meet up with kids and foster.
Matt and sylvie's parents and her brother all go to meet up with sylvie.

"Girl this place is amazing." Foster says hugging sylvie next.
"Thank you both, I'm so excited for you guys to meet my parents and my brother." Sylvie says and severide comes over and says "there's my favourite PIC."

"Really? How did that go?" Severide asks and Matt tells severide the story.
"Man I would of loved to put Harrison in his place." Severide tells Matt, he takes a swig of his beer.
"I hear ya, it took every once of self control not to punch the guy." Matt tells severide as the chief and Donna, mouch and Trudy, Herman and Cindy and Cruz and Chole, and Christie and violet all show up one after the other.

Chief walks up to Kevin and Lucy and says "it was a pleasure to meet you guys, it's nice to meet the people who raised an amazing young woman and one bad ass paramedic. " chief tells them.
"It was nice meeting you to Wallace, it's nice to know who's protecting our daughter at work." Kevin says .
"We all have each other's backs no matter what we are a family."
Chief tells them then they hug and chief and Donna leave.
Before severide and Kidd and foster leave the girls come up to Matt while sylvie is saying her goodbyes to her family and ask "are we still on for the surprise baby shower at the house tomorrow captain?" Kidd asks smiling from ear to ear.
Matt chuckles and then says "yes, she doesn't know a thing about it." They both smile, nod and walk away.
Matt says goodbye to the bretts and tells them how nice it was to finally meet them. Kevin suggests they should come to Chicago soon and sylvie agrees happily.
By the time Matt pulls out of the driveway sylvie is nodding off on his shoulder. All in all it was a great weekend.
