Chapter Ten

Casey and Brett had an amazing night of sleep, even though they were both crammed into a hospital bed like a can of sardines. If felt so good to be that close and hold each other, and both were ecstatic to be with each other and know that they were both alive and well.

Brett opened her eyes and slowly turned around in the squashed, tiny bed. She smiled as soon as she saw him. He looked so young and calm when he slept. 'Thank you, God, for keeping him safe and bringing him back to me in one piece.' Thought Brett as she gently reached her hand out and ran her fingers across his gorgeous face.

"Morning, beautiful," Whispered Casey as he opened his eyes, gazed at the blonde beauty in front of him, and pulled her closer in his arms.

"Morning, handsome. How's your leg?" Asked Brett as she tried to sit up and glance at his leg but was pulled back down and snuggled back into him.

"It's fine. Can we just stay like this for a little while longer, please? I'm not ready to let you out of our little world yet."

"Okay," Smiled Brett as she laid back down and continued to snuggle the love of her life.

Both were interrupted a short while later when Nurse Wattkins came in to check on the both of them and the babies.

"Hey, Severide texted wanting to know when everyone could stop by after shift. They're all dying to see us and you awake."

Brett smiled, "I would like that too. They should be okay to come over right after shift. Will said I can get out of here this afternoon around three after they do some more tests."

Casey nodded before grabbing his phone and sending a text back, "Okay. He said they would be here soon. I'm gonna hop in the shower before they get here."

"Okay, make sure you wrap your leg and use the bench Nurse Wattkins put in the shower so you don't slip and fall."

Casey laughed sitting there looking at Brett.

"What are you laughing at?" Asked Brett as she also started to giggle.

Casey leaned in for a kiss before whispering, "You already sound like a mom."

Brett laughed and pointed to her now rather large belly, "Well in case you haven't noticed, I am a mom."

"Yes, and a good one at that." Said Casey before he leaned on the bed with his good leg and gave her a jaw-dropping kiss.

They finally broke apart moments later, "Gosh, can you believe how big my stomach is now. It's like in these past two days I really popped out. Don't you think?" Asked Brett as she placed her hands on her round tummy.

Casey widely grinned, "I know. It's insane. Now I really believe you're pregnant."

Brett smiled and giggled as she said, "Alright, Captain go take a shower you're starting to stink."

"Whatever," Laughed Casey as he grabbed his duffle bag and slowly limped to their hospital room bathroom.

"Hey, Brett." Called out Casey as he stopped at the bathroom door.

"Yeah," Said Brett as she looked up from her phone and into his smiling eyes.

"I love you."

Brett smiled and let her phone drop out of her hands and onto the bed, "I love you too! Now go shower before everyone gets here."

Casey walked into the bathroom, closed the door, and yelled, "Yes, boss!"

Brett sat there listening to the shower run in the next room and couldn't believe how blessed she was. Though, she was soon started from her daydreaming when she heard a knock on her open hospital room door.

"Ummm, hey, Brett is it okay if I come in?"

Brett sat there shocked. 'Why is she here? What does she want now?' Thought Brett as she sat there with wide eyes staring at the one and only, Gabby Dawson.

"Sure," Whispered Brett as she immediately sat up straight in bed and put her left hand protectively on her baby bump.

Gabby walked into the room and noticed that Casey was in the bathroom, "Listen, I don't want to upset you or anything, but I was at the firehouse this morning when Severide said that you were awake. And, I wanted to come and visit you."

Brett nodded sitting there silently praying the shower would stop soon and Casey would step out.

"Umm, thanks Gabby. Casey should be out soon, he wanted to take a quick shower."

Gabby nodded and began walking closer until she stood a few inches from Brett's bed, "Yeah, I figured it was him since his stuff is laying all over the room."

Both girls shared a quick giggle before Brett took a small deep breath and began, "Gabby, listen I sorry you had to find out this way. We didn't plan to get together like this or to hurt you…"

Gabby softly interrupted, "Brett, it's fine. Really, I understand. You all actually seem great together. And I'm sure you're both really excited to be parents."

"We are, yeah."

Gabby reached down and touched Sylvie's stomach, "So it's really triplets, huh?"

Brett looked up and smiled, "Yeah, how can you not tell? My stomach's huge."

Gabby smiled, "Well, it has definitely grown since the last time I saw you."

Brett instantly went pale thinking about the last time she saw Gabby.

"Umm, actually I had something to give you," Said Gabby as she grabbed her purse and started digging through it until she prevailed and pulled out the small back velvet box.

"Here, Matt left this that night at the restaurant. It's really beautiful. I think you're going to like it." Mentioned Gabby as she handed the box over to Brett.

Brett looked up at her with wide eyes, "Umm, thanks. He didn't mention losing anything."

"Yeah, I think he was more worried about you at the moment and then with all of that, that happened after."

Brett nodded sitting there still shocked.

"Well, I should go. I'm sure when everyone gets here you all will be very busy."

"Thanks, Gabby."

Gabby smiled, "Yeah, please tell Matt I said hi."

"I will." Whispered Brett as she watched Gabby walk out.

I wasn't too long after that, that everyone from firehouse fifty-one was there in the hospital room sharing many laughs and tears with them.

"Hey, when do we get to find out if we're gonna have little boys or girls running around the firehouse?" Asked Kidd as she walked over to Severide and sat on his lap.

Brett and Casey shared a look with each other before Brett responded, "Well, we actually found out that today that if we're ready that can tell us the sexes."

"DO IT! DO IT" Yelled everyone in the small room.

"Hey, or you could have the doctor tell me and Kidd the sexes, and we could plan a gender reveal for the two of you." Suggested Kidd.

Brett smiled, "I like that idea. What do you think, Casey?"

Casey placed his hand on Brett's belly before responding, "Whatever you want, babe. As long as we get to find out soon."

"Okay, it's settled then! Kidd and I will plan a reveal at Molly's this Saturday." Announced Foster as they watched the Will Halstead bring the machine into the room and begin the ultrasound.

An hour later Casey and Brett finally had the hospital room all to themselves.

"I can't believe you let Will write the sexes down and give it to Foster and Kidd." Remarked Casey as he sat there with Brett on her bed playing with her hair.

"I know. Listen, I have to talk to you about something."

Casey immediately became alert, "Okay, what is it. Is something wrong."

"No, everything's fine. It's just when you were in the shower Gabby stopped by and gave me this." Said Brett as she reached under her pillow and pulled out the black velvet box.

Casey looked at her like she had three heads, "Did you look at it?"

"No. I wanted to, though."

Casey took a breath, "Brett, I completely forgot about that ring. My only concern was you that night."

Brett smiled, "I figured."

"So what do you say?" Asked Casey as he took the box from Brett's hand, "Sylvie Brett, will you marry me?"

Brett took a minute to think before responding, "No."

Haha, sorry, everyone. Don't hate us, and don't worry we will update soon, but please let us know what you all thought, we are dying to know. Thanks for reading! -PurpleNewYorkCity/MSlugAntZ and one-chicago-obsessed
