Sylvie and Gabby had just returned from a call, poor kid fell off a back porch and broke his arm, when her phone vibrated alerting her to a text message.

"I think we need to talk…hopefully tomorrow after you get off shift?" Sylvie just stared at the text from Antonio, her heart starting to beat faster.

She didn't know what to say and Gabby was staring at her wondering why she just stopped talking in the middle of their conversation.

"Is everything okay Brett…you look like you just saw a ghost" Gabby was starting to get concerned.

Sylvie shoved her phone in her vest pocket "Sorry…yeah I'm okay just still not feeling so well" it wasn't the exact truth but it wasn't exactly a lie either, she was still feeling some residual effects of the stomach issues and food poisoning she's had over the last several months.

Sylvie walked into the bunk room hoping to lay down for a couple minutes between calls, Kelly spotted her "Hey Brett can you come here a minute?"

"What's up lieutenant? Is everything okay?" Sylvie said walking into Kelly's quarters and setting on his bed.

"So that thing I wanted to talk to you about…you got a minute?" Kelly was hoping they could get this out of the way. She nodded her head. "I wanted to know if you would be willing to be my roommate, I have that spare room and honestly I would love the company?" Sylvie laid back on his bed and sighed loudly.

"Why would you want me as a roommate? I already have a place to live and what about Stella?" Sylvie was confused by this whole conversation.

"I think that you would be more comfortable at my apartment, more freedom, no nosey roommates, and there is only one of me and not two man-children, and let's face it I'm a lot better to look at." Kelly smirked. "And Stella is fine with this, I talked to her yesterday and she thought it was a good idea, but you're more than welcome to talk to her about it and I'm sure you will."

"I'm not sure about this Kelly, I'm going to have to think about it, just give me a few days to process, okay?"

Sylvie didn't know what to think this was all out of nowhere, sure her and Kelly were friends and hung out, they knew each other pretty well but for him to just ask her to move in with him, that was just a little out of his usual realm. She would need to talk to Gabby and Stella to get their opinions and she really didn't want to hurt Joe or Otis.

"So you up for a little more advice giving?" Sylvie asked making puppy dog eyes and pouting at Kelly. Kelly nodded and gave her a little smile.

"So Antonio texted me and asked if we could meet after shift tomorrow to talk…I'm not sure what I should say to him"

"Meet with him…hear the guy out, see what he has to say. Maybe it's something you want to hear." Kelly was relieved Antonio stuck to his word and he hoped that Sylvie would take his advice.

Sylvie went back to her bunk and pulled out her phone. She plopped her self down on her bed. She read the message again before typing her reply "how about breakfast at the diner on Halstead…will that work?" Tonio responded immediately "I'd rather do this conversation a little more privately, how about breakfast at my place? Eva and Diego will be at school. 7am?"

Sylvie didn't know how exactly she felt about meeting him at his apartment; they didn't have the best of luck getting through a full conversation when there was a bed near by. But she figured he probably wouldn't relent and if he said he needed to talk privately then it was probably serious. She texted him back "sure sounds good, see you in the morning." Her head was spinning and she felt nauseous. She fished some Tylenol out of her nightstand drawer and took it; laying back down she hoped they wouldn't have a call for a while so she could rest.

Sylvie got a full twenty minutes before the bells went off; she got up and ran for the ambo. She took the passenger seat more than willing to let Gabby drive today.

"Are you okay Brett? You've been acting a little weird for a while." Gabby asked glancing at her. Gabby was really concerned for her friend, she knew Antonio had told her he was going on a blind date but whatever this was seemed deeper than just that.

"Severide asked me to move in with him," Sylvie stated plainly, hoping to steer the conversation away from anything Antonio related.

"What? Why would Severide ask you to move in? Seems odd." Gabby said surprised.

"I stayed the other night when we hung out, he was too drunk to drive me home. There's nothing going on, he's like a brother, plus Kidd is on board I guess" Sylvie kept her eyes trained on her hands.

"Well, it would be more quiet than your apartment, maybe it's not a bad idea. You've seemed stressed with Cruz and Otis constantly in your business." She wanted to sound supportive and maybe it really was what Sylvie needed. Cruz and Otis cared about Sylvie a lot but Cruz had no boundaries when it came to Sylvie and they were both constantly inserting themselves into her personal life.

"Maybe" Sylvie was staring out the window watching the city pass by, she was really hoping they were near the call so this conversation would end.

Gabby decided to give up for now, she really wanted to ask about Antonio but Sylvie didn't seem herself so she thought better of it and let it go. She would eventually get it out of her and she would try to talk to her brother too maybe he would tell her.

Later that night everyone was hanging out in the common room waiting for Cruz to finish dinner. Sylvie was sitting on the couch with her arms around her knees; she was trying to watch TV but was distracted with her thoughts and had no clue what was actually on. Stella stepped over the back of the couch and sat down beside her and put an arm around her shoulders.

"Hey babe what's up?" Stella asked hoping Sylvie was seriously considering Kelly's offer, she had thought it was a great idea. She knew Kelly got lonely and had problems living alone and she knew that Sylvie would never do anything to hurt her.

"Ugh, nothing really, just tired, hoping this shift is over soon, only 10 more hours" she tried to sound joking but anyone with eyes could tell she was serious.

"I know Kelly talked to you and I really do think it's a good idea for the both of ya, in my little humble opinion" Stella looked at Sylvie and noted she looked tired.

"Mmhmm, thanks Stella" Sylvie really didn't feel good and jumped up and ran for the restroom. She barely made it to the toilet before she threw up the little food she had to eat for the day. Cursing the food poisoning she cleaned up and returned to the bunkroom to lie down, luckily the rest of the night was slow. Ambo only had two calls the rest of the night and Sylvie was able to rest, Gabby picked up the slack and completed inventory and stocking to let her friend get sleep that was obviously needed.
