Third chapter :)

The names of his new team are quite random, I just looked at the cd case next to me and copied some of the surnames... but newhouse was from the tv show...

Hope you enjoy this chapter :)

Casey watched as his team walked into the house, they did not say a word to anyone

. This silence continued for the next few hours. Everyone seemed to have a certain spot to sit in. Casey spent the start of shift in his office working through old paperwork. The alarm rang and his truck was called into action. He was the first person in the truck and was waiting for the rest of his team. When they finally began to drive away he tried to forget that this wasn't his old team and focus on the task at hand. The truck pulled up to a two storey house fire.

"Okay, Goodwin, Jackson, I want you to vent the roof, Williams, Harris, on the ladders, Newhouse with me, basic inside search. Casey's new chief smiled as Casey immediately gave orders to his new team as though he had always worked with them.

Inside the building, Casey and Newhouse were searching the last room on the bottom floor when there was a scream from upstairs.

"Let's go" Casey shouted through his mask at Newhouse who nodded in acknowledgement. They quickly ran up the stairs and went in the direction of the screaming, they discovered a woman trying to reach a young child in a crib. Casey assessed the area then jumped over the flames at their lowest point and grabbed the baby before jumping back out again.

"Newhouse, take the baby and this woman outside, I'll check the last few rooms" Casey ordered passing the baby over. Newhouse nodded without any argument which shocked Casey as his old team would protest and go out together, his new team seemed to have no problem leaving him alone in the burning building. Casey searched the other rooms on the floor, he was in the last room when the chief radioed him.

"Get out now Casey"

"In the last room" Casey replied as he waved his arm under the bed, his fingertips brushed something, he reached a little further and dragged out a young child. He picked up the little boy and held him close to his chest, he then checked around the rest of the room for the parents or any siblings but he found none.

"Casey!" The chief shouted.

"Just coming out with a young victim" Casey ran back down the stairs and out into the cool air, he passed the young boy over to the ambulance crew before heading back to his truck. He sat down on the bumper and lifted his leg slightly. He could feel an immense pain spreading up his leg, looking down he saw there was a hole in the back of his trousers, he correctly assumed that when he rescued the baby he was just caught by the flames as he jumped them, it was not life threatening and he didn't want his new team to think him a wimp so he just stood up and helped his team put out the fire then pack away all of the gear and head back to the firehouse. The first place he went when he got back was to the medical room. He rolled up his trouser leg and looked at the blistering skin, it was only a first degree but the rubbing of his trousers did not help with the pain. He rubbed some burn cream over it and then stuck a small bandage over it. He then headed to the kitchen to get something to eat.

The rest of the shift passed by slowly, there was only one other call to another house fire, it went the same as the last, all the victims were recovered and no members of the team were injured.

At the end of shift the team slowly left the building and drove away. Casey sat in his truck for a few moments before driving off to the nearest bar that wasn't Molly's.

"Matt?" A voice asked breaking him out of his thoughts. "What are you doing here?"

"Kelly?" Matt questioned looking up the face of Kelly Severide as he sat down next to him at the bar.

"Yeah, it's me... Why are you here?" Kelly asked.

"I'm having a drink, problem with that?" Matt asked angrily.

"No, it's just, haven't seen you in this bar before, why aren't you at Molly's?"

"Didn't feel like it"

"So you didn't want to see your old team. Is that it? I don't want to see them any more now you've got your new team?" Kelly said also getting angry.

"I haven't hung out with them ever, so why now when I have a new team should I hang out with them? I don't need them!" Matt almost shouted as he stood up.

"Then where's your new team? I don't see them anywhere he either!" Kelly said following Matt out of the bar.

"No, there not here, I came for a drink by myself after a long shift is that allowed?" Matt said.

"Why did you want a transfer Matt?" Kelly asked softening his tone.

"I need something new, a need a team I can have fun with, outside of work to!"

"We all realise that we should've included you more but we're sorry we didn't mean it! Your new team isn't any different though is it? That's why your all alone in the bar"

"There only temporary until I find a permanent house somewhere else"

"Somewhere else? How far away you planning to go?"

"Wherever there's a job"

"Please don't do this Matt. Come back to us. Please."

"No, my mind's made up, I'm leaving"

"Leaving?" Severide said confused

"Yes, when I transfer houses I'm going to need to be nearer to my new station so..." Matt explained.

"I do not know what's going on with you Matt"

"It's simple. I can't stay here so I'm moving house"

"You can stay here! We can change and you will be included more!" Severide was pleading with Matt.

"I'm leaving and that's final, goodbye Kelly Severide" Matt said walking off.

"Matt, don't..." Kelly stopped mid sentence "Why are you limping?"

"I'm not now leave me alone" Matt said as he reached his car.

"You are" Kelly said getting into the passenger side of Matt's car.

"Get out of my car"

"No, not until I know that you are ok"

"I'm fine, I got a small burn, and do you know why? Because I was saving people, it comes with the job now get out of my car"

"Matt..."

"Please Kelly, I just want to go home and collapse and you have shift tomorrow so you should to, so get out of my car!"

Kelly unwillingly got out, as soon as his door was shut, Matt drove away.

Any ideas of what could happen next would be good as I fear the storyline has 'disappeared' and I'm not sure where this is going...

I'm on holiday at the moment so I'm not posting regularly but I'm back home on Thursday so then it should be more regular.

Please review :)
