Gabby's POV

I wasn't sure why it was taking Naia so long. I had a plate of cheese and cracker on the table and she still hadn't come so I got up and went to go and find out what was going on.

"Naia?" I saw her in her room holding something. When she heard me, she quickly stuff whatever she was holding up her sleeve.

"What was that?" I asked her. Naia mumbled something but I didn't quite hear it. "Naia, just show me."

Reluctantly, she pulled out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to me. What I read horrified me.

"Matt!" I called and moments later Matt walked in.

"Another note?" He asked concerned when he saw what I was holding. I nodded and handed him the note. It was disgusting that somebody would want to hurt a little girl, especially one who has been through what Naia's been through.

"It's all my fault that they're dead." Naia whispered, clearly distraught. "If I had stayed with Ellie in our room that morning instead of running out to the firehouse, none of this would be happening."

I pulled her to sit down next to me on her bed. "But you would also still be living with those people. Shane, Thomas and Ellie would have never gotten out of that house. You wouldn't have either if you stayed put. All of you guys would still be living with those monsters if you didn't do anything."

"But they didn't deserve to be dead. As nasty as they were." Naia protested, burying her head into her hands.

Matt put a hand on Naia's shoulder, "They brought that onto themselves. Shouldn't have tried to shoot those kids." He then turned to me, "Should I call Antonio or what?"

"Yeah, call Antonio." I said. "Naia, I have some cheese and crackers on the table when you're ready." I had a feeling she wanted to be alone so I left her to be. It made me feel unsafe here knowing that somehow, some creep was getting into my apartment and leaving threats on Naia's pillow.

I walked out of the room and to the living room where I found Matt on the phone probably with Antonio.

"It threatened Naia, that's what the note said. No nothing was broken this time." Matt was saying as I sat down on the couch. "Sounds good, thanks."

Matt hung up and sat down next to me. I leaned against him, head on his shoulder.

"Matt." I said, still debating whether I should tell him how I felt.

"Mhm?" Matt asked, obviously in a daze at the moment.

"Matt, I don't feel safe here anymore." I admitted and Matt wrapped an arm around me.

He sighed, "It's awful isn't it. I was hoping it would just be a one time thing. Maybe we can ask Shay and Severide if we can crash with them for a little bit."

"But they only have one extra room, there's three of us now." I pointed out.

Matt nodded, "Yeah but why don't you call Shay first, tell her what happened."

So that's what I did. I picked up my phone and dialed Shay's number.

"Hello, Shay speaking." I heard her say when she picked up.

"Shay, somebody left another note on Naia's pillow." I said, not realizing that I didn't say hello back.

There was a moment of silence before Shay spoke up. "What did it say?"

"Oh, just that Naia was going to be the next to die." I said, feeling a shiver go down my spine as I remembered the note.

Shay tsked, "Well, all three of you are packing up some stuff and heading down here right now. You're not staying in that apartment." It was as if she already knew I was going to ask.

"Thanks a million Shay, I owe you big time." I gushed.

"Don't worry about it, that's what friends are for." Shay told me and hung up.
