NBC Owns Chicago fire, not me. I'm just having fun.
A/N-So sorry it's taken so long, I'm still writing, I just get stuck a lot.
Alison's making the drinks.
It's the first time either Kelly or Leslie have seen Aidan drink.
They are in their apartment, Alison having brought over the makings of some truly excellent mixed drinks.
Ali went inventive with Leslie and Kelly, the former getting an Island Mojito, the latter getting a Bermuda rum swizzle to start. Aiden had a White Russian, liking her drinking decadent.
Beforehand, Aiden had asked them to trust Alison, and neither party regretted it.
Next, Alison made Bailey's Honeybees, which she gave to all three.
Then the fun started.
"Never have I ever." Alison declared.
Why not?
Aidan started:
"Never Have I Ever tried to cut my own hair."
Aidan and Alison drank
"I was four." came from Aidan.
"Six." answered Alison
Alison went:
"Never Have I Ever pressed send and then immediately regretted it."
This one got all of them.
Shay then, but not anything risqué:
"Never Have I Ever had a bad allergic reaction."
Shay drank- Kelly knew she was allergic to coconut. Aidan drank as well.
"Tell the story, Ai " Alison cajoled.
"Oh, I used to get Shrimp lo main all the time, until, and this was when I was four-
I ate some at our favorite place, and complained about my lip hurting.
It was dim inside the place- we get outside, and my top lip looks like Jessica Rabbit's. Dad was sorry for not taking me seriously. It was winter, the season of chapped lips.
We tried it once more with Sarai at the station, ready to go sirens screaming if it went bad, with some lobster fried rice. Did not go bad, but I sounded like Elmo when I said I was okay"
Kelly went:
"Never Have I Ever needed stitches."
This got all of them, as well
Alison spoke next:
Never have I ever been in an embarrassing YouTube video.
Aidan face palmed.
"When you two are sober, look up FourGem. If you don't want to know me after, I understand."
"Hey, I don't think so. Dumb videos aren't worth losing friendships over." Shay stated earnestly.
"Says the girl who still pulls out her camera, and recorded every 'Big' event in out first year living here," Kelly interjected.
Time passed and more drinks were poured, Shay and Severide sticking with their originals from Alison. Aidan switched to Colorado bulldogs.
Things got daring.
Never have I ever kissed a member of the same sex, Alison spoke.
Shay, Alison…. and Aidan.
"Okay. I've got to hear this, Aidan- you said you were straight when it came up, that one night when I started complaining about never having it go right.
You made the error of saying you'd keep an eye out for Mr. Right for me-" Shay blabbed.
"You corrected me because I didn't know yet," Aidan remembered and interrupted.
"It was Ali. She's known she was gay since she was fourteen, and we were eighteen and….
I got tired of waiting, myself. I just wanted to see if there was anything.
"We tried, but it wasn't… That's not who I am. If I ever swung even close to that, Ali would be… but you can't change what you are."
It went silent for a moment.
Desperate to make it lighter, Alison thought then smirked.
"Never Have I Ever… needed to escape a room naked because their parents showed up."
Kelly and Alison both drank.
Shay rolled her eyes in a 'what else did I expect' way.
Aidan took a moment to think back.
"Oh, my god! Margret Alexton! I had no clue you got that far!"
She groans.
"No wonder it went boom so fast. She was a parent obeying goodie-good, always."
From there it spiraled to Sex. Toys, odd spots they'd done the deed in, down and dirty and detailed.
Until they quit, wanting to be somewhat coherent the next day. Aidan made them all drink a big glass of water.
She also tells them to come over the next day when they can handle it. She is making breakfast.
Kelly and Leslie walk back to their apartment.
The next day, Aidan makes a breakfast fry-up for four: Scrambled cheesy eggs, fried mushrooms, and bacon. Toast. Some tomatoes she had sliced up and leftover mixed fruit made an excellent breakfast.
"I don't know how you handle making breakfast, Just thinking about raw eggs… "
Alison shuddered.
"Most food is kind of gross until you add heat. I guess I'm just used to it? Go sit, Ali. I got this."
She plated the food of the four of them, then placed the bowl of fruit on the table where they would eat.
"Dig in, everyone. Have a little culinary hangover cure." Aidan said, dropping into her own chair.
That's as far as I got. Been editing it a bit at a time, have to post or it never would. Next chapter- {almost done as well.} We find out a bit more about Aidan's past, and how she ended up where she is now.
