I woke up the next morning in an unfamiliar room. The frist thing that popped into my min was that I had a little too much to drink last night and I had dreamed the majority of last night. I lifted the blankets to make sure I still had clothes on, thank God I did. I heard laughter from the doorway and turned to see Kelly standing there in jeans and a white v-neck.

"Calm down Hannah we didn't do anything. I figured you just needed to be away from Casey." He said sitting in the chair next to the bed. I nodded and hugged my knees to my chest and refused to look at him. He sighed and sat in front of me and pulled me onto his lap. "What happened between you and Casey, Hannah?" He asked smoothing my hair back.

"I just…I thought he liked me back. Then Hallie showed up and he screwed her." I mumbled and hugged him tight. I didn't care that Matthew hated him. He was nice, sweet and the only one who cared enough to follow me even though I made it clear I wanted to be alone.

"Why are you chasing after him Hans? He's really not worth it." Part of me hated myself for agreeing with Kelly. The more rational part told me he was right. He was engaged, he seemed to love Hallie, and I was just the best friend. So why was I trying to change that? Life would be so much simpler if I moved on and went back to being the best friend. Not the one that had to make everything complicated.

"I don't know. Matt's always been there…I always thought we would just end up together." I muttered weakly and Kelly kissed my forehead. 'It's stupid I know."

'It's not stupid Hannah, he led you on.' He said into my hair and I nodded. 'I have to get to the fire house, you wanna come?" I nodded and he let go of me so I could get up. "There's leftovers in the kitchen if you're hungry." He said and walker towards the bathroom. To get a shower I assume. I walked downstairs and was shocked by the sight of Leslie at the table.

"I'm confused, I thought you were pinning for Casey." She said not bothering to look up from her book as she addressed me.

"Kelly found me lying in the middle of the road and brought me back." She dropped her book and looked at me seriously, as if she was studying me.

"He's a good guy, don't hurt him." She said with a coldness in her voice I never thought capable from her.

"Leslie, Kelly is just my friend." I said grabbing a glass and fixing myself a glass of roange juice.

"Maybe to you, he really like you Hannah. But you keep chasingafter the Lieutenant." She said standing and put her hands on her hips giving me a motherly look.

"I'm done with Matthew, he's just gonna be my best friend now." I said and she smiled a little.

"So if Kelly were to ask you on a date?" She said and I saw her looking to my right and I knew he was standing behind me.

"Guess he's just gonna have to come over and ask me." I said with a smile on my face and looked over my shoulder to see him standing there. He smiled a little before walking over and standing in front of me placing his hands on my shoulders.

"Wanna go out later tonight?' He asked looking me straight in my eyes and I felt ym heart flutter a little bit. Kelly was such a great guyand not bad looking. If I really gave this a try I think it could work.

"I'd love to, now let's get to the firehouse." I said and tugged on his wrist and led him out of the door.

"You didn't say yes just because of Casey right?" He said once he was buckled and pulling onto the road.

"No, I like you…and I think this could work." I said and he reached over and grabbed my hand in his and kissed it. That fluttering feeling came back and I smiled at him a little and blushed.

"You're cute when you do that." He said pointing to my cheeks which were a scarlet red.

"Do what?" I asked trying to pretend I didn't know what he was talking about.

"Blush, and you're doing it again." He said a cheesy smile on his face, he switched from looking from the road to back at me. I ducked my head and smiled like crazy.

"I do not blush." I said once I was sure it was gone and I looked him in the eyes.

"Riigghhtt and I'm not a fire fighter." He said with that look that said I'm not an idiot. I laughed and he pulled in the parking lot and stopped when he saw who was standing there. Matthew was standing there staring the two of us down. "You gonna be alright?" He asked touching my cheek and I leaned into his touch.

"Yeah, he's just my best friend." He smiled and got out and walked over helping me out of his truck. I smiled and he took my hand in his and we walked right by Matthew not sparing him another look.

"Got a boyfriend now kid?" Rossi said looking away from Hotch to my hand that was interwinded with Kelly's. I looked from Rossi to Kelly who had his eyebrows raised and I blushed a little. "Whatcha blushing for kid?"

"I told you, you blushed." Kelly said with a little smirk on his face.

"Shut up I wasn't blushing!" I said hiding my face in my hands. Kelly laughed and pulled my hands away from my face.

"Awww like I said, it's cute Hans." He said kissing my nose and I heard a hmph behind us. I'm fairly sure it was Matthew but I refused to let him ruin my good mood.

"Severide if you're done you have a job to do." Matthew said shoving his hat into his chest and walking off.

"Someone's jealous." J.J. murmured and I nodded to her

'I should go before he reports me to Boden." Kelly said and went to go change and I smiled to myself when he walked of and plopped myself inbetween Morgan and Rossi.

"So are you together with Kelly?" Morgan asked and I shrugged.

"I guess, he asked to go out later tonight." J.J. squealed and clapped her hands together while Emily smiled and Garcia seemed to not have heard anything bue to being so involved in her computer thingy.

"Anyone see-"

"Check his quarters like always Hallie." I said cutting her off, she hmphed but didn't say anything and Rossi burst out laughing. "I feel bad for Chief Boden, his office shares a wall with Matthew's quarters." I said picking up the paper and starting to read it.

"She sounds like a dying dolphin." Kelly said walking out in his equipment and taking the other seat next to Rossi.

"Listen kid, you hurt my Hannah, and I'll have your head." Rossi said running a hand over his gun for good measure. Kelly's eyes got a little wide and he nodded.

"Yes sir, we're on the same page." Rossi smiled and put his gun away.

"Good, but know you'll also be dealing with her partner Morgan." I looked and saw Morgan had his intimidating interrogating face on.

"Hurt her and I swear to God you won't be able to even be able to think." He said and Kelly just looked from Morgan to me looking for some kind of bluff. Sadly I couldn't tell him Morgan was lying because he wasn't. Derek's always been really protective over me since I went to Quantico.

"Hannah can I see you for a minute?" Matthew called from the door. I looked to Kelly and he frowned a minute before smiling at me and nodding for me to go and talk to him.

"Yes Matthew?" I said walking in and closing the door behind me. He had a stern look on his face and his arms were crossed across his chest. Why was he mad at me? I wasn't the one that did anything.

"You're with Severide now?" He said a disbelieving tone in his voice.

"Yeah, that gonna be a problem?" I asked, challenging him.

"I'm just trying to figure out exactly what it is you're doing Hannah." He said stepping closer to me and I took a step back.

"I'm not doing anything, I actually like Kelly." I said defensively.

"You like a lot of people don't you?" He said his voice rising.

'I'm trying to be your best friend like I've always been. That's all." I said keeping my tone neutral. I wasn't going to let him get the best of me.

"By screwing around with Severide?"

"I haven't done anything with Kelly. Why should it even bother you?" I asked.

"It doesn't." He replied way to quickly and I knew he was lying.

"Then why get all judgemental?" I said pushing this a little further.

"I just don't want anyone hurt. You or Severide." His voice was somewhat more friendly now.

"Well than you for your concern Matthew. But I'm a big girl and can handle myself." I sand and turned o my heel walking back into the garage. Kelly stood and held his arms open and I ran into them

"Whoa you alright?" He said looking down at me.

"Yeah I'm fine." I said not looking at him but at Matthew.

"What'd Casey want to talk about?" He asked letting go of me and sitting back down.

"Just trying to be an over protective jerk.' I said and he chuckled.

House fire, Engine 81, ambulance 61 and Truck 3 respond. Kelly sighed and got up kissing my cheek and running off to his truck. That when I noticed Matthew was standing there still watching me.

"Matt I think you're supposed to be going." I said and he blinked before nodding and running off to his own truck.

"Remind me why Casey's still with Hallie when he loves you?" Rossi said in my ear scaring the crap outta me.

"He doesn't love me, or else he would've dumped Hallie." I said pretending to arrange papers while watching Kelly and Matt get all their gear on.

"You love him too Hannah, everyone can see it.' I felt guilty he was right. I liked Kelly a lot, but my heart still belonged to Matt. It was still too soon to tell though right. Who knows I may end up loving Kally more than I ever loved Matt.

"I like Kelly though." I said, it was a bad attempt at an excuse.

"Two different words kiddo." Rossi said sitting back down.

"Rossi what am I supposed to do? I really like Kelly, and I don't want to hurt him. And Matt has Hallie." I said.

"You never really gave him a chance Hannah. You just saw he was with Hallie and gave up." I slammed my hands on the table earning the stares of several confused fire fighters.

"He had a chance Rossi. He kissed me and then went and screwed Hallie not even five minutes later." I whispered harshly. Rossi shrugged and leaned back in his chair.

"Looks like you have a decision to make." I wasn't looking at him anymore though. I was watching the two Lieutenants get in their respective trucks and drive off. I put my head in my hands and sighed dejectedly. What was I supposed to do now?
