Chapter 8- Casey vs. Severide
As the family and friends gathered at Molly's, the only two men who knew of the secret relationship made their way up to Johnny and joined him at the table.
"So I hear you aren't feeling to well" Mike started.
Johnny looked at the two of them confused. "What are you talking about? I am feeling fine" he replied taking a chug of his drink as he watched Juliana drinking with Bobby and the guys from the hospital.
Mike and Nick sniggered as they followed his gaze. They were right on point and they knew it.
"That's not what I hear, I hear you're feeling a little green" Nick said.
Johnny looked at them completely out of the dark. He had no idea what they are talking about. "What the hell are you going on about?" he asked.
"Well, word around town is that you are feeling a little green with jealousy" Mike stated.
Johnny groaned and downed the rest of his whiskey. "Shut up Mike" he tried to wave off the accusation.
"You know I understand. Here you are, loving Jules, having a history with her, wanting to be with her and here comes, out of nowhere may I add, Bobby Whaley" Nick teased.
"Bobby Whaley coming in on a white horse to save the day and rescue Jules" Mike stated.
"Okay fine, you two are assholes. Fine, I am ready to punch his face in" he finally exploded.
The boys looked at him understandingly. "It's about time you had a reaction. Get mad man. Have a fit, go fight for your girl, because I'm sorry but being a little green with jealousy is not going to do anything" Nick said.
"Yeah man, come on. Fight and throw the little green monster of jealousy out the window. Screw the green little monster, get up and fight for her man" Mike reiterated his point.
He wanted Johnny to forget about his feelings and fight for his sister. Everyone knew he was jealous. So, what. Put away the feeling of jealousy and push past it. Fight through it and get over it.
Johnny was riding the edge. He couldn't sit back and watch Jules with Bobby anymore. She was finally getting back to herself. She was smiling, she was happy, she was starting to go out more.
Johnny wanted to be the person to do that for her. He wanted to be the person to make her happy. He wanted to put the smile on her face.
They were all getting ready to go to the fire academy for training of the new firefighting class. Jules walked in with Bobby and Connor. They were starting a new program for the firefighters to teach them more advanced trauma medical techniques that they should all know as first responders.
They all stood up front while the recruits gathered at attention. Chief McNammara started out the meeting.
"Thank you all for coming. There is a new pilot program that the firefighting community is trying out with Chicago Med. This is Dr. Juliana Severide and she is going to be heading up the program. Juliana, I am going to turn it over to you" the chief moved aside and gave her the floor.
"Hi, I'm Juliana Severide and like Chief McNammara stated, I will be heading up the pilot program between the firefighting community and Chicago Med. With recent calls that have been coming in through the Ivory Tower, the big bosses though this might be a good idea for me to come here and prepare you for emergencies that might come up. That being said, the paramedics and EMTs are going to be the focus of the program but as first responders, you need to be aware of how to do these things" she said.
"What does that mean?" one of the cadets asked.
"That means that the paramedics and EMTs are going to be certified by a board licensed physician to perform these tasks. Where the previous calls would require a trauma doctor, this is going to teach the paramedics and EMTs to do these things on their own. I understand to some extent that a doctor is still going to be needed at some calls, but they should be able to do things on their own" she replied.
"Why are the lieutenants here?" another cadet asked.
Juliana looked back at the chief for an answer. "The lieutenants are here because they are going to be your bosses when you graduate from here" she replied.
"How are you going to teach us these things?" someone else asked.
"Well, we are going to start now. I am going to start a group at a time" she replied.
It took them half the day to get through the entire class. She went group by group and started teaching them the basics. They set up a weekly schedule to learn what they needed to learn.
Bobby was helping Juliana clean up and talking about their own little world. Johnny was sitting on the sidelines with Matt and Kelly talking with the chiefs, keeping his eyes on Juliana. He couldn't keep his eyes off her. He had enough. He couldn't take it anymore.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
1 week later…
A week after their meeting at the fire academy, with pushes from Mike, Nick and Connor, Johnny had enough. He couldn't hold back anymore.
Things were calm at the firehouse. It was lunch time and the candidate had actually made a good meal, so everyone was in good spirits. It was the perfect time to talk about things.
Andy was sitting at the table, Emily at his side, going over things from the last call when Johnny made his way over. They could tell, everyone could tell that something was on his mind.
"Hey Andy can I talk to you?" he called out randomly.
Andy looked at him surprised but followed him out to the truck bay. Andy was confused. He didn't know what he wanted to talk to him about in private that he couldn't say in front of everyone.
Once they were out of ear shot, Johnny started pacing. He was beyond nervous. Not something he was used to.
"What's going on Casey?" Andy asked.
"We're friends, right? I mean we've worked our back to being friends, right?" Johnny started. He needed to get the basics down before he got really serious.
Andy looked at him curious but nodded. He was confused. "Yeah, we're friends. What's this about Johnny? You are talking like a crazy person" Andy egged on.
"I hope this doesn't ruin our friendship but I can't take this secrecy anymore. There is no easy way to say this but please just don't react until I am done" he took a breath, getting ready to spill the beans, "I've been seeing your sister Jules for about 8 months now. No one knew but us and we technically aren't together anymore, but we used to be and I plan to get her back" he blurted everything out all at once.
It was the only way he knew how to do it. He needed to get it all out at once or he wouldn't have the nerve to say it.
Andy didn't anything. He didn't know what to say. He was honestly shocked. He was not expecting Johnny to say that. All he could picture in his head was his sister in tears, being sad, sitting in the hospital, just not being herself.
All he could think was that Johnny broke his sisters heart. Everything clicked with him. All the sadness, heartbreak, everything that his sister was going through, was all Johnny's fault.
Andy felt all the hurt that his sister was going through and he burst. He clocked Johnny in the jaw, letting all his emotions out.
Not expecting the impact, Johnny stumbled and held his jaw, "What the hell Andy?" he yelled when he got his balance back.
"You broke her heart. All the stupid bullshit she went through these past couple months, the accident, the crying, the sadness, everything she's been through is your fault, you son of a bitch, I should kill you right now" Andy growled at him. He was beyond pissed.
Before Johnny could defend himself, the guys ran out to break them up and the chief came out of his office.
"What the hell is going on here?" Chief Adam asked.
"He's been dating my sister behind my back" Andy said as he wiped his lip.
"Go get yourselves cleaned up. Jules is not a thing to fight over" Chief Adam instructed the boys to go their separate ways.
The lieutenants went to get cleaned up, each followed by an EMT. Ricky took the opportunity to call Jules and get her to the firehouse.
Connor found Jules secluded in the trauma office, pigging out. "Hey, I'm looking for a friend of mine, Dr. Juliana Severide, maybe you've seen her" he teased.
"Shut up! I am starving. Do you want to join me?" she offered him some food.
He laughed and shook his head, "no thank you. I'm still on shift but I wanted to make sure you were okay" he replied as he plopped down next to her on the couch.
She smiled, "yeah, I'm okay. I got my test results back and it's good news. I promise to tell you but there's someone I need to tell first" she replied.
It was the right thing to do. "Okay, I'll take your word for it. I'm glad you are going to be okay. Just promise to call if you need me" he said before leaving, Jules watching him leave with a smile.
She got really lucky with a friends like Connor and Will. They were really worried about her and there for her during all her craziness with Johnny.
Will walked into the office and sat down opposite of her. "You okay?" he asked.
She shrugged, "I don't know exactly how I feel. I mean I'm happy that this happened, but I can't even be happy with Johnny because he doesn't know" she replied.
Will nodded in understanding. "Don't you think that Johnny would be happy for you and there for you. I mean you are miserable without Johnny. I am sure that Andy would understand if Johnny makes you happy" Will reasoned.
"Yeah. I would hope so because I can't take this anymore" she stated.
RING! RING!
Juliana pulled out her phone, "Dr. Severide" she answered.
"Hey Jules, it's Ricky from the firehouse. Don't worry, everything is fine, but you need to get to the firehouse" he informed her.
He wanted to tell her everyone was okay so she wouldn't freak out. "What's going on Ricky?" she asked as she got up and grabbed her keys.
"Johnny told your brother everything about you two. Basically Andy flipped his lid and WWIII erupted" he explained.
Jules froze. She couldn't believe that he actually did that. "He did" was all she could say.
Ricky let out a breath and nodded, "yeah he did, and Andy flipped out. It was WWIII in here. It was like watching a Rocky movie with them going all at it" he said.
Jules nodded and wiped her tears, "thanks Ricky, I'm on my way. Please make sure they are in their separate corners. I don't want them to hurt each other" she replied.
"No problem gorgeous. We'll see you in a few" he stated.
Will looked at her curious as she was grabbing her stuff. "What's going on?" he asked. He got worried when she started crying. He was worried that something was really wrong.
"Johnny told Andy about us and it didn't go over to well. I have to get to the firehouse" she grabbed her things and walked out.
Stephanie met her at the door. Logan sent her a text to find Jules and to get to the firehouse. Jules was reeling. She had to figure out what she was going to do.
When they got to the firehouse, the girls gasped when they saw Johnny and Andy. They looked like they went a few rounds with Mike Tyson.
Jules walked up to the table and stood between them, "Are you okay?" she asked Johnny.
He got up, smiled and wiped her tears. "Remember what you said to me at the back of Molly's?" he asked.
She looked at him confused. She wasn't in the brain capacity to think that far back. She was trying to focus on the situation at hand.
"What?" she replied.
He smiled, "I was hoping that you would say that" he said as he cupped her face and leant down to press his lips against hers, releasing all the pent up tension.
Jules ran her hands up his arms and up around his neck, standing on her tiptoes. Johnny smiled, tracing her lips with his tongue. She opened her mouth and their tongues fight for dominance, letting him eventually win.
Jules couldn't help but moan as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer into his body. It had been so long since they were together.
As he tried to deepen the kiss, Jules pulled away and rested her forehead against his to catch her breath. She pulled away and turned to face her brother and everyone else.
Where this new found courage came from, she'll never know.
"I know you are mad, probably feel hurt and betrayed. I am sorry. We are both sorry. We didn't do it to hurt you or betray you. It honestly just happened. I love him Andy. He makes me happy and we want to be together. We are miserable without each other. We need to be with each other. The whole reason Johnny didn't want to tell you was because he didn't want to lose your friendship. You worked so hard to be friends again after the incident with Terry, please don't let me ruin that" she was in tears when she finished rambling.
Johnny wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his chest. He was not going to leave her vulnerable in front of everyone.
Andy let out a breath, "you are my sister. I love you. I am always going to be here for you. I want you happy and if Johnny Casey makes you happy, then okay. I am always going to have your back" he replied.
Juliana smiled and laughed at the way he said Johnny's name. They all knew that it was going to take Andy some time to get used to the idea of his baby sister with Johnny.
Jules pulled away from Johnny and went to hug her brother. "I love you Andy, you are the best brother ever" she reached up and kissed his cheek.
He smiled, "yeah and don't you forget it" he said to her before turning to Johnny, "if you hurt her, I swear they are never going to find a hair from your head" he threatened him.
Stephanie was thrilled. She couldn't be happier for her sister. It was about time that Johnny manned up and got his sister back.
Stephanie stepped up and wrapped her arms around Johnny, kissing his cheek, "Good job Johnny. It's about time you did the right thing" she teased.
Johnny looked at her surprised, "you knew?" he asked.
Jules hid, "yeah she kind of does. Mike and Stephanie were the ones who found me after we had that big argument at my apartment" she replied.
"Well, that's just great. Pretty much everyone knew when it was supposed to be a secret" he said.
"Let's just be glad that my brother didn't kill you and we are back together now" she stated.
"You know it all makes sense now. Why you were being so vague all the time. Why you were so sad all the time? I swear if I didn't love my sister so much, I would've killed you" Andy said.
Andy's been really worried about his sister. "So is this why you've been sick the past couple months?" Stephanie asked.
Jules let out a breath and shook her head, "actually no. I mean, don't get me wrong, it does affect the issue but it's not why I've been sick" she rambled.
"Jules, what's going on? You know we are all here for you?" he added.
Jules let out a nervous breath and nodded. "I know and I hope that you will all help me through this. Uh, as you know I can't drink because I've been feeling really sick lately. The night of the dinner, when I went to the hospital, I got my test results from Will. Mike was there and we found out what was really going on" she paused to let out a nervous breath.
"I found out that night that I am about 2 months pregnant" she said waiting for everyone to freak out.
"You're pregnant?" Johnny repeated as he turned to look at her shocked, glancing down at her stomach, as if to see the baby.
She smiled through the tears, "yeah I am" she replied.
He literally just stared at her stomach and didn't really say anything. Jules was starting to get worried. She looked at her brother for support. She was starting to panic.
Stephanie walked up to her future brother-in-law. "Johnny" she called out to get his attention.
He looked at Stephanie's worried eyes and a light bulb went off. He turned to Jules and came back to reality.
"Oh no, I'm happy. Very happy! I love you" he pulled her into his chest for a hug.
She smiled and wrapped her arms around him for comfort. "Are you sure you are okay with this?" she asked.
He cupped her face and wiped her tears. "Juliana Elizabeth Severide, I love you so much. This is a surprise but it's a good surprise. We are going to be together as a family. Everything is going to be great" he said.
She nodded and curled into him, over joyed. She couldn't be happier. She felt like a weight was lifted off her shoulders.
"Yay! I am going to be an aunt" Stephanie pulled her sister into a hug as everyone congratulated the couple.
Morgan, one of the older in the group, laughed, "Severide your sister is incubating a mini Casey" he teased.
"Oh God" Kelly groaned.
The truth coming out went better than they expected. Jules and Stephanie told everyone at the hospital. Mia called Connor and Will to let them know the coast was clear.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Now that everyone knew the truth, it was time to put into action plan B. it's been a few weeks since the news came out.
Jules and Stephanie were at work, going about their day as they normally would when Johnny put plan B into action.
He knocked on Andy's door and walked into his office. "Hey man, what's up?" he asked.
Andy looked up at him curious. "please tell me this is not another secret you've been keeping on my sister?" he started.
Johnny laughed, "no nothing like that but I do need to talk to you about your sister" he said as he came in and closed the door behind him.
"Okay I just talked to her. She said everything was fine. What's going on?" Andy asked.
"I want to ask your permission to marry sister. Before you say anything, I am planning on asking your dad, I just wanted to ask you first so you don't flip out on me. And I want you to know that I would be marrying her even if she wasn't pregnant but I want to do this the right way" he said.
Andy smiled and clapped Johnny on the back. "She's going to be happy and that's all I care about. If you hurt her, I'll kill you" he pulled his big brother card.
Johnny smiled and let out a little laugh. "I think she would kill me first" Johnny teased.
Now that he had Andy's permission, he needed to talk to the chief. After shift he made his way to headquarters. He walked right up to the chief's office. He was expecting him.
"Can I help you?" Heather, the secretary asked.
"Yes, Lt. Johnny Casey here to see Chief Kelly Severide" he said.
She nodded, "take a seat, I will let the chief know you are here" she replied.
"Thank you" Johnny went and took a nervous seat in the lobby. He was nervous. Asking Andy was one thing, they were friends, worked together. It was different than asking a father for the hand of his first-born daughter for marriage.
After a minute, the secretary came out with a smile on her face, "go ahead in lieutenant, the chief is expecting for you" she said.
Johnny got up and smoothed his hands down his pants, "is he in a good mood?" he asked.
She smiled and nodded, "yes he is. Just breathe, don't worry" she replied as she opened the door and let him in.
Kelly stood up when Johnny came in. "Johnny, please come on in, take a seat" Kelly waved to the chair in front of his desk.
Johnny took a seat, "thanks chief, I actually just came to ask you something" he said.
Kelly took a seat at his desk and nodded, "okay, what do you need to ask me?" Kelly asked as he made himself comfortable.
"Okay, this is a little harder than I thought but here it goes, I talked to Andy earlier and he totally agrees" he started off on a positive note.
"It's okay Johnny, just tell me what you need to tell me" Kelly urged him on.
"Okay here it goes. I would like to ask your permission to marry your daughter" he said.
Kelly sat back and watched him for a reaction. He could tell that Johnny was serious. He knew only what Andy, Mike and Stephanie said. Once the truth came out, he focused on his kids and their relationships. He also knew what his other kids were telling him. They were telling him that Johnny really cared for their sister.
"I know that you love my daughter. I also know that you would be marrying her even if she wasn't pregnant. That being said, I also saw first-hand the hurt and heartbreak that my daughter went through on your behalf. All I have to say is that if she sheds one tear over you or I hear one bad word about you come out of her mouth and I can promise you that they won't find a hair from your head" he threatened him.
Johnny let out a breath of relief taking the acceptance. He knew that it was his way of giving his permission for Johnny to marry his daughter.
Johnny nodded and stood up holding out his hand, "thank you chief" he said.
Kelly nodded, "you are welcome. Treat her right" Kelly warned him.
Johnny walked out of the office with a smile on his face. Plan A completed. He was able to get Kelly and her brother's permission so now he needed to plan the proposal and make things right for Jules.
He called Stephanie for some help. "Hey Steph, I need your help" he said.
Stephanie plopped down at the desk and smirked, "Uh oh, what did you do now?" she teased.
"Ha ha, I didn't do anything. I need your help. I'm planning on proposing to your sister. I want to do it formally so I need your help" he informed.
Stephanie squealed, "Yay! I'm so proud of you! Of course I'll help you. I want to make this good for my sister. I have to go, but text me details! I love you Johnny, I want you and my sister to be happy" she was really happy for them.
Johnny smiled, "I love you too Steph, I'll text you later when I figure out what I am going to do" he replied.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Juliana's hormones were changing and she missed Johnny. The fact that he fought for her only made her want him even more. She was on her lunch break and made her way to the firehouse.
Her brother saw her first, "hey Jules, what are you doing here? Is everything okay?" he asked.
She was wearing her white coat while carrying a duffle bag. She smiled, "Yeah, I'm fine. I actually came to see Johnny. Do you know where he is?" she replied.
"Yeah, he's in his office why?" he was looking at her curiously.
She smiled and put her hands on her hips, giving him her sister look, "I need to talk to him about something. Don't worry, he'll be in a much better mood when I am done" she teased.
He hit her with a paper as she made her way up to the officer's quarters. She smiled at her little ounce of mischief she had planned.
She could see Johnny sitting in his office doing paperwork. She walked right into his office with a knock on the side of the door.
He turned and looked surprised to see her there. "Hey babe, what are you doing here? Everything okay with the baby?" he asked.
Juliana just turned around to lock the door and close the blinds. "What are you wearing?" he finally noticed and had time to look her over.
She smirked and turned around with her hands holding the knot on her lab coat. "I was thinking of what I would ever do if we became public and do you know what I came up with?" she started.
Johnny looked at her curious, "What?" he decided to roll with it.
She smiled and started undoing her coat, Johnny's eyes following her movements like a hawk. "Now that people know about us, we can officially christen your office" she said as she pulled the coat open.
Johnny's eyes flamed as he took in his pregnant girlfriend standing in front of him wearing nothing but black pumps and red lingerie.
It took Johnny a second to get over the shock before he launched at her. "You want to do this now?" he asked to be sure.
She smiled, "yes, I am sure. Come on, we have time" she said as she pulled off his shift and met her lips with his.
He laughed at her eagerness and wrapped his arm around her to pull her closer. Jules ran her fingers through his hair, smiling when she felt him responding.
She pulled away and walked over to his desk and sat at the edge. Johnny took the hint and walked between her legs.
He cupped her face and smiled at her. "Hi" he greeted.
"Hi lieutenant" she moaned.
It was her hormones. She had no other explanations for her actions. Johnny smiled and reached around to unsnap her bra as he attached his lips to the crook of her neck.
"Johnny" she moaned and let her head loll to the side.
He smiled against her neck and moved his lips down her chest, sitting in his chair for better access. He pressed his hands into her hips as he brought his lips down to suck at her breast, causing Juliana to gasp and moan loudly.
Johnny left her chest and moved back to her neck, teasing her by avoiding her lips. Juliana had been so focused on trying to kiss him, she didn't notice his hand moving down her stomach to the waist band of her panties.
He dragged his hands up her thighs, his thumbs brushing the inside of her legs, torturing her, smirking at her moans.
"Johnny stop teasing" she groaned, wriggling to move his fingers closer to where she wanted them. She couldn't help it. Her body was on overdrive.
"Patience is a virtue princess" he teased.
She groaned and looked at him through lust blown eyes. "I can't. Please" she begged.
Johnny took pity and pulled away to shed his pants and boxers. Juliana straddled him as he sat on his chair, wrapping his arms around her, digging his fingers in her hair as she leaned down to kiss him.
Johnny groaned and shifted his hips to enter her before he froze. He pulled away and cupped her face to get her to focus.
"Wait Jules" he tried to get her attention.
She pulled away and looked at him to find worried eyes looking back at her. "What's wrong? It's because I'm pregnant, right? You don't want me anymore?" she started overreacting.
Johnny literally snapped to attention. "No, no, Jules I want you so bad right now you have no idea" he tried to reassure her.
Juliana huffed, "okay so what's the problem?" she asked completely un-phased by her nakedness.
"Don't laugh" he warned.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, "I promise" she reassured.
"If we have sex, won't it hurt the baby?" he asked completely serious.
Juliana couldn't help but smile at him. "Babe, the only thing you are hurting right now is your chance of getting lucky" she teased.
He smiled and shifted his hips to enter her, chuckling at her gasp. "I beg to differ princess. I think I'll get very lucky" he replied as he thrust in and out of the her.
Hormone driven lust pushed Juliana forward so she could nip at his neck and trace his pulse point. Johnny groaned and picked her up, layering her on his bed for better access.
Juliana used her hips to switch their positions so they were on top. Johnny squeezed her hips to help her set a rhythm.
She slowed their pace to tease him. Payback time. Johnny groaned as she raked her nails down his chest. He couldn't wait anymore. He flipped them over and set his own pace.
"What's gotten into you?" he panted. This wasn't like his sweet, innocent girlfriend.
Juliana teased and wrapped her arms around his neck to bring him closer. "One word" she nipped at his earlobe., "hormones" she sucked at his skin, raking her nails down his back, pushing him over the edge.
When she felt Johnny let go, it pushed her over the edge and she had the most powerful orgasm she ever had.
She smiled at the sated feeling that washed over her body and wrapped her arms around Johnny, keeping him close.
"Damn Johnny" he panted against her skin.
She chuckled, "pregnancy sex is 10x better than normal because of the hormones" she explained.
He pulled up to his arms and kissed her lazily, "those words never sounded so hot" he teased her lips as he thrust his tongue in her mouth.
She moaned and wrapped her arm around him to keep him close. Johnny pulled away and leaned down her body until he was face to face with her stomach.
"Hi baby, it's dad. I love you so much and I can't wait to meet you and be good to your mom okay" he kissed her stomach.
Juliana laughed and raked her fingers though his hair. "Johnny, the baby is as big as a speck of dust babe" she explained.
Johnny looked up at her and shook his head. "I don't care. It's our speck of dust. We made it and it's all ours" he laid butterfly kisses along her stomach.
She smiled and moved to get up. Johnny laid back and watched her get dressed in a pair of cut off shorts and a Squad 3 t-shirt of her brothers that she tied off at the waist.
"Where are you going?" he asked lazily.
She smiled at him over her shoulder. "Me and Steph have a lunch date. Besides, you need to get back to work lieutenant" she teased.
He groaned and sat behind her, teasing her neck. "I thought I was your lunch date?" he asked against her skin.
She laughed and turned to face him. She cupped his face and teased his lips, "You were my lunch date but I am growing a baby inside me and I need food. Besides, I think my sister and family wants to talk baby" she said.
Johnny laughed and followed her lead in getting dressed. "I think Steph is more excited about his pregnancy than we are" he stated.
Jules laughed, "she can't help it. She's excited about having a niece or nephew" Juliana wrapped her arms around his waist as they walked into the common room.
"If you say so" he replied.
When they joined everyone else, Andy tried to be oblivious as to what they were just doing, but everyone couldn't help but tease him.
"Hey guys, how was lunch? It smells great" Juliana asked.
Everyone looked at the couple with smirks, "it was great, thanks" Emily replied, trying to help her friend.
"Our lunch was great. How was your lunch Casey?" Danny couldn't help himself.
Everyone stopped eating waiting for his response. He looked down at Juliana before smirking at everyone, "my lunch was delicious thanks Danny" the guys couldn't help but laugh.
Andy dropped his fork, "great, now I just lost my appetite" he groaned.
Juliana couldn't help but laugh. "Sorry Andy" she teased as she kissed Johnny before making her way out.
Casey plopped down next to Andy and stole a fry from his plate. Andy glared at his fellow lieutenant. "What?" he asked.
"Really? First my sister and now my fries" Andy protested.
They all couldn't help but burst out laughing. Stephanie had the same reaction when she heard the story. She was happy for her sister. She was glad her sister was happy. Everyone was supportive of the couple.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
A couple of months later and it was time to determine the sex of the baby. She was about 5 months along and she had a nice little bump.
She walked into the firehouse in leggings and a white sweater with a fuzzy scarf and black boots. Johnny greeted her with a hug.
"Hey sis, how are you feeling?" Andy asked.
"I'm alright. Excited for the sonogram today" she cheered.
Andy laughed and put his arm around her, leading her in. "Hey Juliana, do you know yet?" Ricky asked.
"Yeah are you having a boy or girl?" Adam asked.
Juliana smiled in eagerness. "Not yet guys. We actually find out today" she stated as Johnny came in.
He smiled at the sight of his girl with his family. He walked over and gave her a quick kiss. "Hi princess, are you feeling okay?" he asked.
She smiled up at him. "I'm fine babe, I figured we can take your car to the appointment. I had Steph drop me off in return for details and pictures" she teased.
"Okay, are you ready? I have to keep my radio on but I'm ready to go" he replied.
The chief came out and patted Johnny on the back, "good luck lieutenant, this is the best thing that is going to happen to you. Enjoy it, both of you" he said.
Juliana walked up to the chief and gave him a hug. "Thanks Chief. We'll let you all know after" he said leading Juliana out.
Jules was fidgety the whole way to the hospital and in the waiting room. Johnny put his arm around her and pulled her into this chest. "Relax babe" he rubbed her arm.
She smiled up at him, "I am. I'm just excited. I can't wait to see our baby" she said.
He smiled and leaned over to give her a kiss. "Me too princess" he replied.
While they were waiting, they kept getting visitors and messages. Stephanie, Andy, Mike, and Connor walked into the waiting room looking for Juliana.
She got up and walked over to them. "Hey guys, what are you doing here?" she asked looking at Stephanie accusingly.
"Steph reminded us of your appointment. We wanted to be here for you" Mike replied, he was still in uniform. If you looked outside, you could see his squad car parked outside the ED.
Juliana couldn't help but get teary eyed and gave them a big group hug. "Thanks guys, this means a lot" she wiped her tears.
"It's not a problem; me and Steph are in-between cases and we wanted to be here for you" Connor explained.
Before she could say anything, the nurse came out, "Dr. Severide, we are ready for you" she called.
Juliana nodded and turned to her group. "Thanks for coming guys. I'll let you know how it goes" she said as she took Johnny's hand and followed Wendy into the exam room.
"Okay we are going to need you to change into the gown" she said handing Jules a gown.
"Thanks Wendy" she replied.
"No problem, good luck" she said before leaving them.
Once they were left alone, Jules started changing. She handed her clothes to Johnny to put them aside as she got on the exam table.
Johnny moved closer and wrapped his arm around the top of her head, "are you okay? Nervous? You're antsy" he observed.
She turned to look at him, "no I'm okay, just excited" she stated before giving him a once over.
"Are you nervous?" she asked.
He shrugged, "a little. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited that you're pregnant and I can't wait to have a family with you, it's just seeing the baby makes it real" he tried to explain.
Juliana smiled at him through tears. "I love you so much Lt. Casey" she pulled him into a kiss.
He smiled and teased her lips until he snuck his tongue in her mouth and deepen the kiss. Juliana moaned and shifted so she could cup his head and dig her fingers into his hair.
Johnny softened the kiss and pulled away, "I love you more princess" he said.
