''Got everything?''

Matt nodded as he stepped out of the car. His phone went off and he saw it was Severide, mad he refused the call and looked as Eva got out of the car.

''Eva be sweet to Matt.''

''I am s-sure that is going to be fine.'' Matt assured Antonio as Eva already got out of the car, carrying his wheelchair which was in the back.

''Thanks sweetheart.'' He thanked her as he unfolded it.

''Goodbye girls! We are going to see the bears!'' Diego chanted back in the large SUV and Gabriela said him to stop.

''Okay guys, have fun.'' Antonio rolled with his eyes at Diego and pulled the door on Matt's side closed as he drove away.

''Are you excited?'' Matt asked as he grabbed the tickets from his jacket, laid them on his lap and they went inside.

''My friends at school were jealous, I told them I was going to see ballet with my uncle.'' Eva smiled. ''They all want you as their uncle.''

Matt laughed. ''I t-think Diego doesn't agree with you.''

''He likes you, he just likes to tease you as well.'' Eva explained. ''The last time Gabriela had a boyfriend before you and she secretly took him when babysitting us, Diego called him a pussy and aunt Gabby got so mad!'' Eva giggled as she said the word pussy and Matt could hardly hide his smile as he imagined Peter Mill's face when Diego called him a pussy.

Matthew handed the tickets to the man that checked the tickets.

''You are not sitting front row?''

''No, but I can m-manage.'' Matt shook his head.

''I could get you front row if that is easier for you.''

Matt doubted for a second as he didn't like to take advantage of things, but when he saw Eva's hopeful smile he agreed and a security men approached them. They got directed to the first row and the guy nodded. ''Those two chairs, we always keep them free just in case we need them.''

Matt thanked him as Eva sat down and looked at the stage with large eyes. Matt down in the chair next to her, folding the chair and looked behind him, at the stairs they would have to take all the way to the eleventh row.

''Diego is going to be soooo jealous.'' Eva smirked as she looked at the stage.

''Let's make a picture to prove.'' Matt chuckled as he grabbed his phone and Eva stood up. He made a picture of her smile as she stood right in front of the stage.

His smile suddenly disappeared when he thought of a night sixteen years ago.

''Christie, you look beautiful!'' Nancy Casey ran towards her teen daughter whom was ready to dance the title part. The changing room was really small so Matt waited in the doorway. His sister looked like a beautiful woman instead of a high school girl and he was so proud.

''Thanks mom.'' She smiled as she looked in the mirror.

''Mom is right.'' Matt handed her the roses he had taken for her and he looked at the other flowers ont he small dressing table. Probably from their father. Even though their parents were divorced now his dad would be here tonight as he promised.

''Thank you. I see you after the show.'' Christie smiled as she took the flowers from him.

''Break a leg.''

''I know you are still expecting me to.'' Christie laughed as Matt always warned her she would break a leg when she was dancing.

''Well, I hope it won't happy literally.'' Matt added as he followed his mom and Christie was still laughing.

Their places were on the fifth row, two seats next to the stairs and Matt looked around, to see his dad sitting a few rows above him. His dad gave him a smile and pointed at the empty chair next to him.

''I am going to dad for a minute.'' Matt stood up but his mom grabbed his wrist.

''Matt no!'' She snarled and she pulled him back.

''Let me go! I am just going to say hi, is my dad, remember?'' Matt frowned as he pulled his hand free and walked to his dad. It was not like he had made up with his father, but he did want to say hi as he hadn't seen his dad every since he had moved out with his mom several months ago. It was not that he didn't know where his dad lived or that he didn't have the key, but he just was to busy at the academy.

''Hey dad.''

''Matt, how are you?'' His did seemed really happy to see him and Matt sat down next to him.

''I am good dad. How about you?'' Matt immediately saw that his dad did look a lot better than he did when they got divorced.

''I am glad to hear you are good. How is it going at the academy?'' His dad said with a smile.

''It is going really well. Finished this summer so I will become a candidate in a fire house somewhere in Chicago.'' Matt felt a little moved his dad was finally interested in him becoming a firefighter.

''I am really proud, Matt. Even if I never said that before.'' His father laid his hand on his shoulder and the lights got down as the show was about to start.

''I will see you after the show.'' Matt ran down the few steps and sat down next to his mom as the swan lake started. His sister danced very well and between the acts he got his mom and him something to drink, surprised to see his mom sitting next to his dad, talking. After a few minutes she walked down to him again, angry.

''Well, you walked up to him.'' Matt shook his head when she sat down next to him, before she could say something about his dad.

''Odette was so beautiful!'' Eva dreamily smiled as they sat in the foyer of the theater with a drink, waiting for Antonio to pick them up.

''She was.''

''Thank you for the great night.''

''You are w-welcome, I am glad you enjoyed it.'' Matt smiled back at her.

''Did you ever see your sister dance like this?''

''I did. She also danced the Swan Lake. She was a l-lot younger though.''

''Where you proud of her?''

''I was extremely proud of her.''

''Your parents too? I hope my parents will be proud if I ever get to dance a role like that.''

''Your p-parents will of course be extremely proud of you! I am sure they are already p-proud at your right now.''

''But your parents weren't?'' She frowned as he didn't answer about his own parents.

''It was different in my family.'' He just said, stirring through his coffee.

''I am sorry.''

''Don't be.'' He smiled at her as she looked sorry for asking.

''Your parents were separated?''

''Yes. But they fought a l-lot, so I guess it is for the best they did.''

''My mom and dad fight sometimes.'' Eva admitted.

''That is just b-because they love each other, because they are worried and care about each other.''

Eva smiled at him again.

''I just hope they never split up and you and Gabby never will when you get married. Not like your parents.''

His phone rang again and he looked at the screen, refusing the call from Kelly again.

He swallowed while he nodded. The separation between his parents hadn't been that long, as short of their divorce one of them ended with a bullet in the head.

''You did so well Christie!''

Matt turned around to see his sister sleeping, laying over the backseat with a smile on her face. His mom hadn't said anything to him since she had gone to his dad for that small conversation. His dad had been gone immediately after the show. 'as expected' according to his mom. But he did want to believe his dad was trying and he could see his dad was trying. Maybe he should go to his dad tomorrow.

''Hey sis, we are home.'' He woke her up as their mom walked inside with the flowers.

''Matt, can I get your keys? You locked the door so mine are inside.''

Matt grabbed his keys from his pocket and tossed them towards his mom. He helped Christie carrying all the other stuff and gifts she had gotten and inside he saw his keys laying on the kitchen table, but decided to get them after he brought everything upstairs for Christie. He helped his sister bringing the stuff to her room and walked downstairs to ask for another vase for her flowers.

''Mom?''

He was surprised she wasn't in the kitchen and he walked to the living room, but she also wasn't there.

''Mom!?''

The car was gone and he looked at the table, to find his keys gone.

''Christie, did mom say something to you about going somewhere?''

Before she could answer it suddenly hit him. His dads key was on his bunch of keys and he ran out of the house, grabbing his motorbike from the shed and he drove away, terrified. His heart was racing as he raced towards his dad's place and he saw the family car standing on the driveway, meaning his mom was there. He threw his motorbike against the ground, running inside.

''Dad! Mom!'' he ran through the messy kitchen tot he living room, just in time to see his mom pointing the gun towards Alan.

''Mom, no!'' He dove forward to hit the gun from her hands but her finger already pulled the trigger. In the time the gun hit the wall after he slammed it from her hands his father collapsed and he pushed his mom aside and he fell down next to his dad.

''Dad!?'' He tried to ignore the blood that was coming from the bullet wound in his dads head and tried to wake the man, but he knew it was hopeless. His dad was gone and his mom was the cause.

''What did you do!? Why!? He yelled at his mother while he let go of his father and tears started to roll down his face as he looked at his mom, whom didnt seem to able to understand what she had done.

''Matt...'' Was all she managed to mumble.

''Why did you-''

''Matt! You have to go, get Christie, go to your uncle.''

Matthew shook his head as he tried to pinch his arms. He had to wake up, but this wasn't a nightmare.

''MATT! GO GET CHRISTIE!'' His mom suddenly yelled and Matt looked up to her as he stood up and walked out of the living room.

''Matt!'' She grabbed his wrist as he walked past her.

''I love you.'' She nodded at him while she started to cry as well and Matt just shook his head, running out of the house, looking at his blooded shirt and pants in disgust. His own father's blood.

''Why is there blood on you?'' Christie asked worried as Matt walked into her bedroom, she was cleaning the make up of her face but when she saw the look on his face she dropped the stuff from her hands.

''We need to go to uncle Mick. Just grab a few things you need.'' Matt spoke emotionless as he turned around, walking to the bathroom. Furious he started to wash the blood of his hands and face at the sink, looking up again. What if the police though he was a confederate? His sister would be left all alone, without any family.

As they drove to their uncle Micheal's house, Christie grabbed him tighter and although she didn't know what was going on, she knew it was bad. It had something to do with their parents, that was for sure.

Matthew stopped the bike as they reached the house of their uncle and Christie got of the bike, shaking. Their uncle opened the door as he heard the motorbike coming and looked at Matt, surprised.

''Why is there blood on you?'' He asked, just like Christie did.

''Christie, go inside.'' Matt told his sister and Christie did so.

Matt looked Micheal in the eyes.

''Mom killed dad.'' He managed to stutter before he broke down.

''So, how was tonight?'' Gabriela softly spoke as they reached his room in the centre.

''It was good, Eva enjoyed it a l-lot. How was your night and your shift yesterday and t-today?''

''Both good, except I might have some hearing damage from Diego's yelling.'' Gabriela chuckled as they went inside his room. She started to help him undress and get ready for bed.

''You know, I t-talked to Eva tonight about my parents.'' Matt said as he raised himself in bed.

''You told her your dad was murdered by your mother!'' She yelled in disbelief, immediately putting her hand in front of her mouth, afraid she woke up the people in the rooms beside him.

''No, I just told them they separated.'' He calmed Gabriela. ''Please p-promise me that-''

''We will never separate like that.''

''I wanted to say promise me t-that you leave me when I turn into an ass, like my d-dad.'' Matt spoke as he laid his hand into her cheek, smiling at her with a sad smile.

''I promise to not leave you.'' Gabriela said, laying her hand on his. ''But you are being an ass.''

''Oh.''

''You should make up with Kelly.'' She kissed him goodnight.

Matt looked at the 17 unreturned calls in his phone from Kelly Severide. After building courage a few minutes he finally returned a call.

''Matt?'' Severide's voice finally took the phone after a few beeps.

''Hey.''

''How are you?''

''I am f-fine. I am just missing our trainings.'' Matt bow his head, looking at the blanked as he tried to prepare the words he was going to say now.

''and I miss your honesty. Because you w-were honest and I was an ass.''

''Matt, you don't need to apologize. I have time tomorrow, we can talk and train if you like.''

''Sounds g-good, I need to be able to stand as a t-teacher.''

NOTE: So did Matt actually give up on 51? What will happen with him in the flashbacks? Will the police arrest him for being at the crime scene?
