Kind of a filler chapter, 100% fluff. As I'm going to the north of France for the week end and I won't have the internet, there won't be another chapter for a while. But, as I'll be writing during the trip up there, all I'll need to do when I get back is type it on the computer. So hopefully you'll have a new chapter on Monday, Tuesday at the latest. Enjoy !

"Look how cute he was! Girl I'm telling you, your babies are gonna be freakin' gorgeous."

Kelly made a face when he heard Gabby's voice as he got home from the bar. He knew Erin, Shay and Gabby had planned a night in and he was curious to hear the rest of the conversation. So like a little kid, he hid right next to the door and eavesdropped.

"Woah, babies?" That was Erin's voice. It was raspier than usual, which he knew meant that she was a little bit drunk.

"It's simple," Shay said. "You are sexy as hell, my best friend is handsome. Boom! Pretty babies. And I mean, who wouldn't want Kelly Severide's baby?"

"Okaaaay, step by step, girls. We don't even have our own place. Baby talk will come later."

"Oh, so you've thought about it," Gabby said, and Kelly could imagine her nodding her head.

"I can't say it has never crossed my mind." Erin admitted.

Kelly's heart did a somersault upon Erin's revelation. He couldn't help but smile. Of course it had crossed his mind too. More often than he would admit to himself.

"Ouh, I found another fun one!" Shay exclaimed, and Kelly thought it was about about time he made an entrance. He slammed the door loudly enough for them to hear and walked into the room. Three heads snapped up, and they looked as if they had been caught with their hands in the cookie jar.

"Hey," he greeted. "Whatcha guys doin'?"He chuckled and got closer, before realizing they were looking at some of his childhood albums. "Oh god. Shay, you did not."

He moved behind Erin and kissed her cheek.

Shay held her hands up in the air. "They were begging."

Erin gasped. "We were not!" She turned to Severide, who stood next to her and whispered in his ear, in case he hadn't heard, "We were not."

"Whatever you say," he told her with a laugh. "Well, I'm going to bed. You girls have fun." He bent down and kissed Erin's lips.

"Boo, you old man!" Shay shouted after him as he climbed up the stairs.

He was asleep when Erin joined him. Well, he was asleep before she got to the bedroom. She must have thought she was discreet enough as she took off her clothes, but when she climbed into bed, she hit her knee into the corner of the bedside table.

"God dammit, motherfucker."

He raised an eyebrow and tried not too laugh. "Need any help?"

He was surprised when she decided to straddle his lap and place her hands on his chest. His own hands found her hips and he was suddenly turned on by the fact she was only wearing panties and one of his shirts, from which the top three buttons were let undone, which left very little to his imagination.

"Hi," she said with a chipper voice. Her hair was framing her face as she looked down at him. God, she was so sexy, and the fact that they hadn't done anything since she was attacked for fear of hurting her, had left Kelly on edge.

"Hi," he responded. "You had a good night?" he asked, running his hands up and down her bare thighs, working their way up her shirt.

"Mmm. It was awesome. But I want some alone time with you now, mister," she whispered tentatively, running a finger from the top of his chest to the waistband of his sweatpants.

"Oh you do now, do you," he teased. "What if I'm not in the mood?"

She crossed her arms over her chest, which was a bad move, because her breasts were pushed up, and he couldn't help it, his gaze was drawn to them. "Then pigs would fly."

Kelly chuckled and rolled them over so that he was on top. He kissed her once, and pulled away before she could deepen the kiss, deciding to make his way down her body with his lips. She ran her fingers through his hair and closed her eyes, arching her back into the mattress as he kissed down her stomach.

"You're killing me, Severide," she moaned, tugging him back up so that he was at her level. "I want you right here, right now."

He chuckled. "I love drunk Erin."

The next morning, Erin did not feel so joyous anymore. Her head was pounding and her stomach felt as if it had been turned upside down. She groaned and huffed, rolling on her side, away from the light. When sleep wouldn't come, she decided it was time to get up. She climbed down the stairs and saw Kelly sat at the kitchen counter on his computer.

"Hi," she said, kissing his cheek and wrapping her arms around his shoulders from behind. She rested her head on his shoulder. "Anything worth it?"

He was looking at apartments for rent at an equal distance between their two workplaces.

"Not much," he answered. "There's this one, with a large kitchen and living room. But only one bedroom."

They both knew what he meant by that. That bedroom wouldn't only be for friends staying over. Maybe it would serve as an office for the time being, but they couldn't help thinking about a long-distance future, with kids.

"Not gonna work," she said. "What about this one?" she asked, pointing to another add on the website. He clicked on it and they both raised their eyebrows.

"It looks very nice," he admitted after looking through the photos. "A little bit far, though."

She kissed his cheek, "Maybe we can go look at it. See if it's worth it even though there's a little bit of distance."

He pulled his phone out of his pocket. "I'll call the Realtor to get a visit."

That afternoon, since neither of them had to work, they went to visit the place. The apartment was spacious. The entrance led to a hall and into the main room, which combined living room, kitchen and dining room. The walls were a light grey and beige, meddled with some apparent bricks. It looked almost identical to Erin's place, but it was larger with dark hardwood floors and it had two bedrooms.

The master bedroom was gigantic, Kelly's eyes widened when he saw it and Erin could only laugh. On the opposite wall, there was a nice window bay which looked out on the city. In the corner of the room, there was an en-suite bathroom with an Italian shower that almost made Erin squeal, but she kept her composure.

And there was a bath.

The large window by the living room gave out on a small balcony on the side of the park behind the building. Severide stood behind Erin, his hands in his back pockets, smiling as he watched her admire the view. He could tell she was in love with it already.

They told the realtor they would keep in touch, but Kelly knew what Erin's choice would be. It was the same as his.

"So, what did you think?" she asked before he had the chance to turn the engine of his car on. He laughed and looked at her.

"I love it."

Her smile got wider, "You do?"

"Well yeah, it has everything we need, the rent is not too high and although it's a little bit far away from work, I don't see us living anywhere else."

She bent over the remote control to crash her lips onto his, "God, I love you."

He chuckled and cupped her cheek, deepening the kiss. She moaned, grabbing onto his neck and pulling him closer. He tugged on her bottom lip with his teeth and her heart began to race. He knew exactly what to do to get her aroused.

"We can't do this here," she whispered against his lips, fingers working to unbutton his shirt.

He laughed, "Yet you're the one taking my clothes off."

She groaned, "Take me home."

That night was the night of the Chicago Police and Fire Department Gala.

They were going to be late. They were going to be so late.

Kelly was pacing in the bedroom, waiting for Erin to get ready in the en-suite bathroom. He sat on the bed for a few seconds, then got back up, resuming to his pacing.

"What's taking so long?" he asked through the closed door.

"It takes sometime to look pretty."

He rolled his eyes, "You don't need make-up, you look beautiful without it, trust me."

She scoffed, "Sweet talker."

"I'm tired of waiting. Hurry up,"

"Quit acting like a child and find something to do in the meantime. Straighten your tie or something,"

"Stop being bossy, detective,"

"Stop whining!" She said with a laugh. He huffed and buried his hands into his pockets, looking down at his shoes. The door finally opened and he raised his head.

"Final-" he stopped mid-sentence when he took a good look at her. "Woah."

Erin was wearing an emerald green dress that stopped just above the knee on one side and continued down her leg on the other side until it hit the floor. Her hair had been pulled into a low bun. To that, she had added a pair of diamond earrings and black heels.

His jaw would have hit the floor if it was possible. His eyes trailed over her body, eying each and every detail: her smooth legs, her cleavage, her smoky eyes.

She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. The fact that she was wearing heels made her about the same height as him and pulling her to his eye level.

"You look..." he began, not able to take his eyes off her body. "Amazing."

"Thank you. You don't look so bad yourself, Lieutenant," She kissed him quickly. "Come on, let's go."

"Do we really have to go?" he whined as she took his hand and dragged him out of the bedroom.

"Yes."

"But I won't be able to resist you all night."

She raised an eyebrow and leaned over to whisper into his ear, "When we come back home, I'll make you worth a while."

That was going to be a long night.

Since the policemen and the firefighters sat at different tables, Kelly wasn't able to talk to Erin, or laugh with her, or check her out, or touch her (not full on make out, but you know, his hand on her thigh or his arm on the back of her chair, the little things).

It was torture.

What made it even worse was that her table was just across from his, and she kept smiling at him with that sexy smile. For what felt like the umpteenth time, Severide took a sip from his glass of water to keep cool.

"You alright there, sport?" Shay asked from beside him. He cut his eyes away from Erin and frowned.

"What?" She rolled her eyes and slapped the back of his head. "Ouch, what was that for?"

Shay laughed, "Stop drooling. I know Erin is freakin' hot in that dress but have some manners." She looked back at Erin and Severide shoved her arm.

"Stop checking out my girlfriend."

"Huh? Watcha saying now?" Shay played dumb, her eyes not leaving Erin. Severide chuckled, knowing she was just playing with him. He saw Erin look at him with a suggestive eyebrow raise and then stand up before walking toward the bathroom. Shay's mouth dropped and she moved her eyes to him. Coughing, she muttered, "Bathroom sex."

He rolled his eyes at her before giving her a wink and standing up to follow Erin. He didn't find her in the bathrooms, and when he walked through the door to the back room, She grabbed his tie and pulled him against her. She was leaning against the wall, in a darkened area, but he could see her eyes shining.

"Hi," he said, before she crashed her lips onto his. He moaned in surprise but kissed her back (duh), wrapping his arms around her waist to bring her closer.

"You look sexy in that suit," she whispered against his lips, racking her fingers through his short hair. "I couldn't resist."

"I know, I'm irresistible, aren't I?" he teased.

"And so modest," she added, glaring at him playfully. He cupped her face with both hands, and pulled his lips down onto hers. He swept his tongue over her bottom lip, asking for entrance which she granted, moaning when his tongue touched hers. They were so engrossed in the moment that they did not hear the door opening and closing. However, they did hear a clear of the throat.

They pulled away and saw who had interrupted them. It was none other than Benny Severide. Erin knew who it was; she had seen him on Kelly's childhood photos.

She was mortified.

"Don't mind me," Benny said. "I was just going to the bathroom." He pointed to the other side of the room and continued on his way.

Erin buried her face into her hands and dropped her head onto Kelly's chest. "God, way to make a first impression," she muttered against him. He laughed and kissed her hair.

"It's not a big deal, baby."

She raised her head in surprise. "Not a big deal?! My boyfriend's dad, whom I had never met before, just walked in on us."

He shrugged. "Could have been worse. Come on, we were just kissing."

"Still. Big turn off though," she teased with a shrug of her shoulders. Severide fake whined and pulled her to him, wrapping an arm around her shoulder. He kissed her forehead and led her back to the main room. Erin went back to her table just in time for dessert, and on his way back to his own table, Kelly was stopped by his father.

"Nice girl," he said with a smile. Severide sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "So you're going out with a detective, huh?"

Kelly pursed his lips. "It's a little bit more serious than us 'going out'. We're moving in together."

Benny's eyebrows lifted in surprise. "Wow. And you were going to tell me about this when exactly? In the wedding invitation?"

"We wanted to invite you for dinner, okay? Erin insisted and then things got crazy, so it wasn't a priority. She feels really embarrassed about your first meeting."

Benny smiled and patted his son's shoulder. "Well I'll be glad to come for dinner and visit the new place. Give me a call son, okay?"

Severide nodded. "Yeah, sure thing, dad."

Later that night, when Erin and Kelly laid in bed, she snuggled close to him and rested her head against his chest. She kissed his skin and looked up at him, smiling.

"What?" he asked softly, trailing his fingers up and down the arm draped over his middle.

"Nothing, I just can't wait for us to move in together."

He smiled as well and dropped a kiss on her hair. "Me neither. I love you."

"I love you too."

They heard the front door open and giggles soon filled the apartment. Shay's giggles. Then shushes. Erin frowned and looked at Severide, who put a finger over her lips to hear better. Footsteps could be heard up the stairs, someone stumbling and another fit of giggles soon after.

"Alli, you're gonna wake 'em up!" They heard Shay yell-whisper.

"Sorry," They then heard the sound of kissing and a door slamming.

"Who's Alli?" Erin asked, furrowing her eyebrows. A big grin spread over Kelly's face.

"Rafferty."

"Rafferty?" she asked in confusion. She didn't know any Rafferty. Then her eyes widened in knowledge. "Oh! Oh. Leslie Shay."

"Yeah," he said. "About time."

Let's just say neither of them got much sleep that night.

Thoughts? :)
