It's Sunday morning, the day after the BBQ when sylvie wakes up and smells food.
She pays the empty side of the bed and opens one eye and sighs as she sees Matt's absent from his spot.
She looks at the alarm clock and sees its only 6:30am, she sighs and gets up. It's her last day on shift before she's in the bull pen, sylvie knows it's what's best for her and her babies, but it doesn't make it any easier to not be on calls with Matt though.
After sylvie's showered and dress she goes to go down stairs when the smell hits her. Waffles!!
She's been craving chocolate blueberry homemade waffles for a week, but they never seem to have time to make them.
Sylvie rushes down the stairs and when she reaches the kitchen she sees Matt, he's standing by the counter where the waffle maker is, in his white captains polo and his work pants.
He looks so sexy, sylvie thinks as she goes over and wraps her arms around his waist and breathes in the smell of waffles and Matthew Casey. Matt has a scent that nobody can copy. He smells of ash, soap and that special Matt Casey smell that she can't put her finger on.
"Good morning handsome." Sylvie says kissing Matt's neck.
Matt smiles and turns around to kiss sylvie, softly yet passionately.
"Good morning gorgeous, waffles are ready for you." Matt says bubbling on sylvie's earlobe.
"Thank you, you have no idea how long I've been wanting these." Sylvie says as she graves a hot waffle and devours it.
"Mhm, heaven." Sylvie moans and Matt chuckles at her.
"Glad you think so." He says kissing a piece of chocolate of the side of her mouth.
"Mhm, so tell me why we are up so early instead of making love in our bed?"sylvie asks wiggling her eyebrows and smirking at Matt.
Matt laughs and says "Severide called he wanted to talk to us before shift, he's on his way. I was about to come wake you when you came down." And explains .
"Oh, wonder what's wrong." Sylvie says questioningly
"I don't know." Matt says as he starts cleaning up, as sylvie starts to devour a stack of waffles.
It's about fifteen minutes later when there's a knock on the door.
Matt goes to answer it, it's severide. Severide comes right in.
"Hey man what's up?" Matt asks as he shuts the door behind Severide.
"I need to talk to you and Brett." Severide says
"I'm right here" Brett says as she comes in belly sticking out a little more today, her duffel bag over her shoulder.
"I want to ask Stella to marry me, but I don't know where or when to ask her, if she's even say yes or if she'll like the ring." Severide tells the could who is shocked.
Matt gives a short "the jelly Severide is finally ready to settle down, who would of ever seen this coming." Matt says as he claps Severide on the back and sylvie rolls her eyes at Matt, sylvie tells severide "don't listen to him, I think it's about damn time. I'm almost positive that Stella will say yes, and you should ask her today at work in front if all of 51. She'd love that. Stella doesn't have family of her own so I think she'd like 51 being a part of this since we are her family." Sylvie explains.
"I agree with sylvie and yes it is about damn time, your both crazy for each other." Matt says grabbing his own duffel bag.
"Okay, I will ask her today, her sylvie see if she'll like the ring." Severide asks as he hands sylvie the black velvet box.
"Oh Kelly it's beautiful she'll love it." Sylvie says smiling at the simple ring. It's a while gold band with a simple cut diamond in the middle. "It screams Stella." Sylvie tells severide.
"You think so?" He asks
Sylvie nods and hands the box back to him.
"Okay good." Severide says as Matt looks at his watch and notices the time.
"We better get going." Matt says, sylvie and severide nod and they all leave the house as Matt locks up Severide hangs back for a second as sylvie goes to get in the truck and tells Matt "everything's a go with the baby shower."
"Kay good, she doesn't know a thing about it." Matt says happily as they walk to their vehicles.
Matt and sylvie chat all the way to the fire house.
Mostly about how anxious sylvie is about not being on 61 after this shift. Matt reminds her that her replacement is stopping by this shift to say hello and meet everyone before next shift.
Sylvie sighs and says that's good but she wishes she had one more shift left before she had to meet the replacement.
Finally they arrive at 51 and Matt goes over to sylvie's side of the truck and helps her out.
She takes a deep breath in as she takes in the sight of her home. The home she's known for the last seven years.
"Are you ready?" Matt asks as he takes her by the hand.
"Not really, I know this is what's best for the babies, but I'm gonna miss being out on calls with you and being a part of 51." Sylvie says sighing.
Matt stops her dead in her tracks and turns her to face him in front of the apparatus floor doors.
They are both unaware of the person staring at them over by Otis memorial.
Matt leans their foreheads together and tells her "51 will always be your home, you will always be apart of 51 sylvie no matter what. No replacement, no pregnancy, nothing can take that from you. Your just protecting our babies, and I love you so much more for how caring you are and how much you want to protect these babies even though how you have to isn't exactly what you want. Sylvie Brett I'm your home, 51s your home we love you and these babies already so very much." Matt's Says and kisses sylvie's bump first and she giggles and then kisses sylvie softly but passionately.
Matt notices someone come up to them and clears their throat as sylvie and Matt pull apart.
"Yes, can I-" Matt starts to say but is cut off by who is standing there.
"Gabby?" Matt asks and sylvie looks like she just saw a ghost.
Sylvie's terrified that gabby being her will change everything between Matt and her.
But as if Matt can read her mind he pulls sylvie in close to his side, protectively and rests the other hand on her now steadily growing bump.
"Hi Matt, sylvie." Gabby greats them with a warily smile.
"Hi." Sylvie says but Matt isn't as nice as sylvie and he cuts right to the chase with gabby.
"What are you doing here, gabby?" Matt asks
"I'm in town for a charity event and I wanted to stop by and see Otis memorial and say hello to…everyone." Gabby says a little he soon the last word.
"It's good to see you gabby, how have you been?" Sylvie asks trying to keep calm.
"I've been good, great actually. I see you two have both moved on." Gabby says featuring between the two with a dry chuckle.
Sylvie winces at the sarcasm in gabby voice. Matt draws sylvie closer if that's possible.
"Yes we have, we are actually getting married next month." Matt says happily and then adds "our twins are due in January as well." Matt looks. At sylvie with so much love and adoration in his eyes that it melts sylvie's heart to think even with gabby standing right here he can still look at her like that. That's the confirmation she's needed.
Gabby on the other hand is broken hearted to see how Matt looks at sylvie, he never looked at gabby the way he does sylvie.
"Wow… congratulations…"gabby says hesitantly.
"Thank you. " Matt and sylvie both say at the same time .
"Hey captain we are ready." Foster yells out to Matt and sylvie indicting the baby shower is all ready.
"Okay we are coming." Matt says and looks to sylvie and smiles and says "this was all foster and Kidd but they wanted to throw you a baby shower today as it's your last shift before the bull pen and they know how well you've been looking forward to that." He talks to sylvie as if gabby isn't still standing there.
"Awe they didn't have to do that." Sylvie says smiling uncontrollably.
"Well I guess I better get going." Gabby says.
Matt nods but sylvie elbows him in the ribs. "Ouch." He he breaths as he rubs his hand over the sore spot, sylvie chuckles and says to gabby "why don't you come in I'm sure everyone will love to see you."
"It's okay this is your day I wouldn't want to impose." Gabby says.
"It's fine, right matt?" Sylvie says looking up at him with her big doe eyes. Hell when can he ever say no to her.
"Yea it's fine come in." Matt says a little to dryly.
"Okay sure for a moment." Gabby says and follows Matt and sylvie into the common room she hangs back for a second to let everyone surprise sylvie.
"SURPRISE." Everyone yells.
"Awe guys you're the best." Sylvie says as she hugs Kidd and foster.
"We live you and these two little bundles in that belly of yours, so we wanted to show you how much we love you!" Kidd tells sylvie.
"Hey what about me?" Matt asks feigning being hurt."
"Oh we live you to captain, but your not growing two little humans in you." Foster tells him and they all laugh.
Just then gabby walks in and silence fills the room.
Everyone's shocked and looking to Matt and sylvie for direction.
"She knows." Matt finally says and it's like the room can breath again.
"Well in that case get your ass over here girl." Kidd says and hugs Dawson. Everyone says hi and Dawson's introduced to Ritter, Gallo and foster.
"So you're the one who took my spot." Dawson says playfully to foster, but fosters on the defence because she doesn't want gabby to ruin anything for sylvie. "Yea."Foster says nodding.
"Okay let's get this party started before we are called out." Kidd says "you just jinxed us babe." Severide says as he comes up to Stella.
"Oh shit, I did don't I." Stella says and everyone laughs
Kelly clears his throat and says "I have something I want to say first Matt and sylvie Congratulations, on both the wedding and the two little buns in the oven." Stella hits Kelly playfully but everyone laughs and Kelly continues "I've already talked to Casey and Brett about what I'm about to do and I'm not stealing the spot the I'm adding to it." Everyone laughs a little, confused.
Then Kelly gets down on one knee in front of Stella and it all clicks to everyone and you can hear the gasps through out the room.
"Stella Kidd, you saved a broken man in more ways then one and more than once, I promised you that I would be the man you deserve and I hope I'm living up to that expectations because I want to be the man that you deserve tell the day I die, I love you Stella, . Stella will you marry me?" Kelly asks
Stella has happy tears falling down her checks, she nods frantically and says "yes , absolutely. I live you to Kelly." Stella says and Kelly slips the ring on her finger, they embrace and kiss passionately.
"About damn time." Foster says
And everyone laughs.
"So there's lots to celebrate today." Chief says as he comes to congratulate Stella and Kelly.
"Yes there is chief."
They all have cake and sylvie opens her presents, it's mostly clothing and diapers, a diaper bag from foster and bottles and a breast pump from Stella.
Just as they are putting away the goats into Matt's truck gabby comes up to Matt.
"Can we talk alone..please matt." Gabby begs.
"What is there to talk about?" Matt asks
"A lot apparently." Gabby shoots back.
Just then the bells go off.
ALL UNITS CAR ACCIDENT HENDERSON STREET.
"It'll have to wait." Matt says.
Gabby nods and Matt sighs as he rubs his hand over his face.
Just then sylvie comes up to them and asks gabby "wanna ride along for old time sake?"
Gabby looks at Matt ands says "if it's okay with the captain"
Matt nods
They go to go to 61 when Matt pulls sylvie into a passionate kiss and says "be safe please, I live you three more than you know." Sylvie smiles and says "I will be, and I know we live you too, you be safe too we need you." They smile at each other and head to their Riggs.
