Stella's pov: it's the day of shift again I feel nervous seeing Kelly again because the way things we left last time like how we talked or more like argued and that's what hurts is that we had our first big fight and haven't talked at all since then. Also with my drama with Kelly going on I learned that Casey's apartment got set on fire last night while he was asleep and that sucks for him because he lost everything that has special meaning to him and that fire and how all those memories of Dawson were in that apartment and now they're all gone because some idiot wanted to take revenge out on him and now he has nowhere to live. Once I arrive at work I go into the meeting room and find a spot to sit and wait until the chief and everybody else comes in for the meeting.
10 minutes later
Everybody finally comes in Brett decide to sit next to me. Boden kills us in on what all happened at Casey's and what going on with catching the person who did this and then he tell us to get to work but before we all get up Herman speaks up.
H= Casey lost everything last night he got insurance but that will be months of red tape so let's kick in
Once Herman got done with his speech everybody got up started putting money in the booth and I was getting ready to get up when my phone started to ring and it was Tyler
SB= is he still in town
S=yeah( Stella looks toward the door and sees Kelly leaving) we had dinner last night this whole roller coaster with Kelly's got me so spun out it was just nice hanging out with an old friend you know
SB= well to be honest Kelly doesn't seem to be doing so great either I saw him at Molly's last night he drank enough to empty the taps
S= haven't talked since last shift I mean what do you think I should do check on him even though he's the one that's acting cold
SB= I do not give relationship advice I only just worked up the nerve to ask Chaplin out
( they both get up)
S= so that's happening
SB= he's coming back from a church retreat this weekend so hot
As Brett was talking Boden spoke up and asked for foster and Brett to follow him so they did and then I decided to go talk to Kelly as I am walking toward Kelly's office I notice he is on the phone so I slow down until he's off the phone and then when he got off the phone I walk in
S= who was that
K= some guy who wants me to the restore his boat
S= I thought you were out of that boat-fixing Business
K= I was but nothing wrong with being busy right
S= I guess not
K= I swung by your place last night you weren't around
S= oh yeah I was out I met up with Tyler for us some food
( Kelly nods his head)
Kelly I can't do all the work here
K= maybe it shouldn't be this much work
S= no maybe it shouldn't
Once I said that I walked out of his office and just walked away I'm trying to help him but he keeps pushing me away
Kelly's pov: One Stella walked away I feel bad I keep pushing her away but I've never been this in love with somebody that I don't know how to open up to them like I want to but I don't know how to and that's what scary to me just want find a way to open up to Stella she means so much to me
About 10 minutes later
As I am sitting in my office I decide to look to see where Stella went and maybe talk to her but then I noticed Matt walked into the locker room so I went to go talk to him and see how he's doing
K= what the hell are you doing
MC= I need to shower and clothes
K= where is Naomi
MC= cleaning up at her hotel then heading back here we're supposed to get an update from the police they won't let me enter my apartment
K= well I can lend you some stuff if you want
MC= thanks what I want is to get back into that apartment and have a look around see if Naomi's research is salvageable maybe help out with the investigation
K= you have to let OFI handle that and besides you got enough to worry about
MC= yeah
K= ( Kelly plays with his keys in his pocket and then throws his keys to his place to Matt) here go to my place get some sleep that's your new home as long as you need it
MC= are you sure
K= yeah I don't insult me
MC= you look like hell
K= so do you
The bell go off
General pov: all of 51 goes to a call where a semi truck smashes into an SUV and squat three gets a couple out of the car while Chuck 81 keeps the driver of the semicome and help if they are needed once everybody was safe and they cleaned up the mess they headed back to the firehouse to wait until the next call came in.
Kelly's pov: when we get back to the firehouse there was a guy looking for me and that being the guy I spoke to you earlier on the phone about working on his boat as he talks about it more and shows me pictures of it to convince me to take the job I decide to take it after him so then he said he will text me the address of where he lives and then he leaves and I go back to work.
The end of shift
I want to find Stella one shift ended so I go into the locker room to try and find her
K= hey are you guys seeing Stella
HC= she took off a little while ago
AF= we drinking tonight
K= hell yeah we are
After I change my clothes I head over to the guys house that hired me for the job to get a better look at the boat once I get there we go over more details and I met his kid and he gives me the garage code and clicker and told me I can come by anytime to work on it so he left and I left maybe a half hour after him and then headed over to Molly's to have drinks with my guys
Stella's pov: I decided to call Tyler back when I was on shift and I took him up on his offer to go out and hang out more and then he told me he invited some friends to go out with us and I said that was fine and told him to swing by my place so we can carpool to the place we needed to make them. I was almost ready when Tyler knocked on the door.
S= come in I'm almost ready
Ty= OK
S= alright
Ty= hey Stella you know what I found in the back of my drawer
S= hmmm
Ty= that CD you made for me the Mad Max do you remember that
S= oh my god
Ty= yeah there was a lot of Justin Timberlake in Mario on it
S= oh there was a Mary J on there too
TY= yeah there was a soundcheck to some good times
S= so true I just got a find my keys and then we should be good to go
(Stella looks around her apartment for her keys)
Ty= well I'd be cool to hang here for a little while longer
S= well aren't we meeting Kim and Daniella
Ty= yeah but they can wait look I was thinking it's our last night to hang together before I head back to Texas
( Stella finds her keys)
S= yeah but you said you be back soon right like a month or two
Ty= yeah
S= yeah
Ty= it's just umm rockstar I'm not gonna lie being with you has made me realize some things
S= Tyler
Ty= maybe the timing wasn't right for us back in the day but the older I get the more I tend to realize that you can't just wait for something you want you have to make it happen
S= okay Tyler ( Tyler leans into kiss Stella but she pulls away from him) what are you doing
Ty= Stella I am in love with you
S= get out
Ty= oh come on don't
S= what I needed was a friend and you knew that
Ty= what is this about Kelly looks stella that guy got his thumb pressed down
S= get out
( Tyler then left)
Once Tyler left I just cried for a few minutes I cannot believe I didn't see that coming I feel like an idiot I kept thinking Kylee was jealous poor Tyler and Tyler wasn't really into me I was just in to me because he was my friend but I was wrong. I cannot believe I ever doubted Kelly. And on top of Tyler saying that he likes me more than a friend he try to kiss me that night and which is a no-no in my book you know I have a boyfriend so don't try to kiss me. So then I decided to get my mind off things I am going to go in to work tonight even though I told her minute I would not be there but right now I think it's best if I distract myself and not even think about what just went down.
10 minutes later
Once I arrive at mollies I'm still so mad at myself about what happened and why I don't catch it before it happened but for now I'm going to go inside and not think about it anymore as I walk and I see Herman is talking to Cruz and Mouch so I put my purse down behind the bar and Herman speaks up.
H= hey I thought you weren't coming into work today
S= well now I am I just need to be here right now OK
H= yeah sure ok
A couple hours
Once I work a couple hours at mollies I decided to head home and try to get some sleep for the night.
A hour later
As I try to sleep my mind you're drifting everything gone on the past couple weeks with Kelly and Tyler. And then I think about what am I doing to make Kelly push me away I am trying to be there for him but he keeps pushing me away and I just want to help him but he doesn't want me to help. Then I will lysed that I am starting to get on the same path I did when I was with grant and I hate it back then because I put up with so much with him and I didn't realize how strong I can be and stand up for myself but now maybe I need to do that with Kelly. Wake maybe just take a break from each other and work on ourselves and if he really wants to be with me he will learn to let me in so I decide to get up and get dressed and head over to his house and do the thing that I hate to do the most and break up with somebody that I love the most.
10 minutes later.
Once I am alive at Kelly's I noticed his car is not there and I still have a key to his place but I know that he offered Matt to stay with him and I don't wanna have Matt caught up into our relationship drama per one he's a friend of both of us into he's also the captain of the house he doesn't need the drama outside and inside the firehouse so I decided to just wait outside and hopefully he comes home soon and we can talk.
Kelly's pov: after work I went to work on the boat again and while I was there hung out with the dude's kids and he help me work on the boat. It was nice working on the boat because it got my mind off things for a few hours after a while it starts to get dark so I headed home. Once I park my car and started walking toward my building I noticed Stella is standing outside and she kind a looks sad to me
K= are you ok
S( she nods her head)
you were right about Tyler yeah apparently I'm the idiot
K= you're not an idiot
S= here's the thing Kylie it doesn't matter it was never about Tyler you have been pushing me away since your dad died and I've done everything I can to be there for you to try and make this work and I hasn't changed anything you're jealousy the way you keep shutting me out you were going down some dark hole and I know what that looks like because I been there before with Grant and maybe you want me to keep showing up to somehow pull you out of this but I have been the lifeline for a drowning man I will never do that again.
( she takes a pause for a second)
I love you but I can't be with you anymore.
(Stella walks away crying)
Stella's pov: once I walked away I wanted to cry because it hurts me to see him as I am trying to break up with him he doesn't realize I'm doing this for the better good night now but hopefully soon he will get what I said to him so I just go home and cry myself to sleep.
Kelly's pov: One Stella walked away all I wanted to do was go after her but I can't. Why do I always ruin my relationships why can't I ever be happy with a girl so I just go upstairs and just fall asleep and hope my mind can help me understand this whole situation.
