It had been a few weeks since Erin had gotten back into her work, and now everything was running smoothly. Erin hadn't felt this happy in a long time. She was closer the ever to everyone in her unit and she was just head over heels for Jay.
The team had tried to make Friday nights for Molly's and it was great to see everyone show up from Med and fire, it was like having the whole gang there. Even though after her first incident on the job since being hurt and the kidnapping she has leaned on her team so much and the support they had showed was incredible. She had especially grown close to Burgess as they were the only two women in the unit they bonded over common girly things and now Erin had a best friend to spill details about Jay with.
"Yeah it was great so romantic, the rose petals, the champagne, him" Erin said to a smiling Burgess. Erin and Jay's one month had passed and Jay felt the need to celebrate after the experience they had gone through together so they could celebrate being as strong of a couple as they are.
"Oh stop it! That sounds amazing, I am so jealous! We were all rooting for you and Jay and now that it has happened we can not get enough around here!" Burgess replied and hugged her.
"Haha well what can I say besides the fact that I am the luckiest girl ever" Erin said as her eyes met Jay's from across the room. They were out at Molly's and Jay was talking to Severide and Casey while enjoying a cold beer and watching the game. When their eyes met he gave her a smirk that had her blushing and he could tell from all the way across the room. Jay slowly made his way over to her and Burgess.
"Sorry to interrupt but uh we should get going, you have an appointment tomorrow and I am working an extra shift in the morning." He leaned down and gave Erin a peck.
"Okay yeah yeah you are right, well see you tomorrow!" Erin stood and gave Burgess a hug and walked out of Molly's waving to everyone goodbye with Jay's are wrapped around her waist.
The next morning Erin woke up and could feel Jay's arm around her waist and she turned to look at Jay sleeping. Sh just couldn't imagine her life without him and she wondered how she did it so long. Eventually she got cold and decided to scoot into his side where Jay without even waking up wrapped her in his arms even tighter, Erin would try and fall back asleep until their alarm.
When their alarm went off Erin decided to give Jay some more time to sleep since he had been working so hard and taking extra shifts for the extra cash, she had been wanting to know why but never bothered to ask. So she decided to hop in the shower and get ready for the day, throwing on a little bit of makeup and wearing a comfy pair of jeans and a cute t-shirt. When she came back out Jay was already dressed and sitting on their bed putting on his shoes.
"So am I going to be seeing you for lunch today?" Jay questioned.
"Oh yes it is just another check up they want to look at my vitals and my scar and see how everything is going. Voight is making me go, you know how he is with that stuff" Erin said as she rolled her eyes and plopped herself down in his lap and throwing her arms around him.
"Yeah I know, but I just hate the fact that you aren't going to be sitting across from me this morning but it's okay as long as I see your beautiful face at lunch. I don't think I will cry too much." Jay said getting a chuckle out of Erin before he placed a soft kiss on her lips. "Isn't your appointment soon? You don't want to be late."
And with that Erin got up and kissed Jay goodbye and grabbed her stuff and headed out to her appointment, and Jay followed her shortly after for his early shift.
When Erin entered the hospital she walked to the front desk to sign in for her appointment and sat down to wait in the waiting area. Her phone vibrated and she looked at a text from Jay, I already miss you :(. She couldn't do anything but smile and before she could respond her name was called and she headed back to a small white room which she had seen many times before and sat down on the long cushioned chair. Not before long, Will walked in.
"Erin hey! So good to see you! How have you been feeling? Any pain or dizziness at all?" Erin shook her head no after giving him a hug. "Okay well you know the usual, blood tests and I will have a nurse come by to check out that scar and I will be back soon." Will said and then left.
A nurse soon entered and began to take Erin's blood which she use to be uneasy about but after everything that had happened it didn't really bother her anymore. After that the nurse lifted her shirt to examine her scar and pressed on any areas that might be tender and Erin was cleared like normal.
After all her tests she was still sitting on the chair when she noticed it had been a while since Will was last in there and she began to worry something was wrong. She felt fine and nothing weird had been happening, was something wrong that Erin didn't know about? And before she could continue to worry, she saw Will walking towards her room through the clear glass of the door.
"There you are, you had me worried for a sec!" Erin said with a little laugh but the laugh died off when she saw Will's face. "Will what's wrong?"
"Uh nothing really, we got your blood results back and I am just a bit surprised that is all." Will said looking at the paperwork in front of him. "Erin you're pregnant."
She was what? How could that be possible? She was on birth control, she had been on the pill for years now. He couldn't have said what she thought he just said. No he has to be joking. "I um, no no no that can't be right. I have been on birth control for years now. I take the pill everyday."
"Well looking back at your records some of the pain medication and antibiotics that were administered to you could have counter reacted with the birth control and it could have been a while since its been working." Will said taking Erin's hand. " But hey Erin you are the strongest person I know, you and Jay can handle this. It is a surprise but a good surprise right?"
Erin couldn't even say anything she just held onto Will's hand for as long as she needed, she was so thankful he was there for her. When she had finally come to her sense she mumbled out quietly asking Will how far along she was.
"Well looking at your data you look to be 3-4 weeks along, I am surprised you haven't noticed any symptoms yet. But Erin I do have to talk to you about something important, with the injuries that occurred to your abdomen there could be some problems throughout the pregnancy. When trauma has happened like that to the body especially in lower region of your body, we will have to look at this pregnancy really closely. I know it is really early on but I just want to let you know now and you can fill in Jay."
Erin just shook her head, "I should get going. Thank you Will" and with that she gave him a quick hug and quickly walked out of the hospital and to her car. When she got inside she couldn't hold it in any longer and cried. She felt like she had 100 pounds weighing her down and all she wanted to do was cry. How could she have a baby? She wasn't ready for that and her and Jay just started settling down and enjoying life together. What would she do about work? A thousand questions and problems ran through her head as she sat in her car before she realized she was supposed to meet Jay for lunch at the precinct.
She knew she wouldn't be able to handle seeing him right now so she headed home to try and wrap her head around things.

Jay was getting worried, she wasn't answering his phone calls or his texts.
Hey how did the appointment go?
Babe?
You coming for lunch I got us Chinese!
Erin pick up please, you are worrying me.
It was almost time to go home now and he hadn't heard from her all day or seen her all day and so he decided to go ask Voight. He lightly knocked and Voight motioned him to come in.
"What's up Halstead?" Voight asked with curiosity in his eyes.
"Hi Sarge uh I don't mean to bother you but as you know Erin had one of her follow up appointments today and she was supposed to be back by lunch. I've been texting her and calling and I can't get ahold of her." Jay could see Hank shaking his head.
"She called me and asked for the rest of the day off , said something about groceries and something special. Look's like you don't need to worry too much."
With that Jay let out a big breath he didn't even realize he was holding and thanked Voight and headed out to finish his paperwork. Once he was done everyone was headed out for the day so he said his goodbyes and headed home. When he pulled up he saw Erin's car and ran up the stairs to unlock their front door.
When he walked in he could smell something amazing coming from the kitchen, an decided to follow the smell and that is where he saw Erin cooking away. He leaned on the wall and watched her, he hips moving with every stir and he couldn't contain himself anymore and walked dup from behind and grabbed her waist.
"Ah Jay o my gosh you scared me! Don't do that again!" Erin said with surprise.
"Sorry babe I smelt something so delicious and wound up here looking at you, the most delicious thing of all." Jay said while placing a kiss on her temple. "You had me worried, I was calling and texting you all day."
"Oh I am sorry I put it on silent at my appointment and I was just busy trying to make this for you today." Erin said while trying to seem normal and calm when in reality if Jay was holding her she would be shaking from nervousness.
"Oh that's alright I figured I would tell you my surprise in person. But how was your appointment?" Jay asked while receiving a sample of the soup Erin was making. It was tomato , his favorite.
"It was fine, I actually have something to tell you too but you go first, I want to hear about your surprise!" Erin said with excitement trying to cove up her nerves.
"Well you know all those extra shifts I have been picking up? I thought it would be nice for us to take a trip, and more importantly a trip to the beach. We both have a ton of vacation days so why not use them up together? So I already talked to Voight about it and we are cleared to go! What do you think?" Jay said with excitement and Erin turned around to look at him. As he was waiting to see the excitement in her eyes, he noticed he saw more worry.
Before he could even ask what was wrong Erin answered him.
"I'm pregnant."
