Thank you guys for the great reviews! This chapter is pretty based on last episode…sorry for the lack of PD details, I've actually stopped watching :/ it breaks my heart to say that, but I've just lost interest & with all the Linstead happening it just really makes it unappealing lol Anyway, I hope you enjoy the Linseride love & my take on Fire :)

Kelly woke up to the buzzing of his phone on Erin's nightstand. Looking at the clock, he saw that it was 5:30, sighing he reached for the phone. "Hello," he said in a sleepy tone, waiting for the person on the other end of the phone to reply.

"Severide," he heard in a serious tone and sat up, his mind quickly waking up.

"Chief, everything ok?"

"I've been trying to get a hold of you all night…we're at the hospital, the whole squad, there's been an accident." As Boden went on and explained what happened with Gabby, his body immediately became tense, he felt Erin stirring next to him but couldn't even look at her right now. He knew that of he did he wouldn't be able to stay composed, stay strong and that's what he needed to be for his friends. "Kelly…"

"Yea, yea, I'm still hear Chief. Look I'm on my way ok, I'll see you guys soon," Kelly said sitting up completely and putting his legs down over the side of the bed.

"Hey, everything ok?" Erin said, looking at him, rubbing his back.

"Something happened with Gabby, I gotta go to the hospital," he replied standing up, trying to find his clothes in the dark room, using the little peaks of sunlight coming through the blinds as guidance.

"Is she ok? What happened?" Erin said getting up and walking over to him.

"I don't really know," he answered trying to ignore her, he didn't want to think about all the things that could have happened, could have gone wrong, he just wanted to get the hospital.

"Kel, look at me," she said grabbing his hands.

"I'm sorry…I just, I don't know what happened. Chief said she was having pains and they took her to the hospital. She's been in surgery for a while and they're still waiting to hear from the doctor. I'm gonna go there find out what's going on, give my support to Casey and Dawson…"

"I'll come with you."

"You have to be at work in an hour," he said kissing her softly, "I'll keep you posted." Nodding she game him a sad smile, "I love you," he said kissing he again before he left.

Erin stood there for a minute, just watching after him, a million thoughts running through her, she decided to just shake them off and get ready for work. It was gonna be a long day.

Erin got to the station and put her coffee down on her desk, sitting down, she ran her hands over her face. She just kept thinking about Gabby and Matt, her heart broke for them and for everyone at 51, they were a family there. Kelly had been texting her updates on Gabby since he got to the hospital, she had just gotten the one message she had been praying she wouldn't receive, the baby didn't make it. She shook her head trying to clear the thoughts from her head. "hey, you ok?" she heard her partner ask as he came out of the break room and taking a seat at his desk.

Looking at up she gave him a sad smile, "I don't really wanna talk about it."

"Is this about the fireman? Did he do something?"

Lindsay laughed lightly at his over protectiveness, "no, he didn't do anything, look Jay, I really don't wanna…" she stopped when Antonio came up. She could tell he was upset, she knew he had gotten a call, probably from Matt or someone at 51. Getting up she walked over and hugged Dawson before he sat down. "I heard, I'm so sorry Antonio." He just nodded and hugged her tighter.

Voight came out of his office and cleared his throat, "alright, I just got a call from one of my CI's, Halstead and Lindsay I want you to go down and talk to this guy." She nodded, giving Antonio's arm one last squeeze before following Jay out of the precinct.

"You gonna tell me what that was about back there?" he asked, looking over at Erin as she drove.

Letting out a big sigh she looked over at him, "something happened with Gabby," she paused for a minute letting him process before continuing. She also had to prepare herself for what she was about to tell him, "she lost the baby."

He just shook his head in response, "man, poor Casey. I can't imagine what they're all going through."

"Look don't say anything ok? I'm sure they don't wanna make it a big thing. And with Antonio, I'm sure he just wants to focus on the case." He nodded, understanding his partner's words. He was glad she told him, he just wished there was more he could do. Instead they both just decided to focus on the case.

Kelly was sitting in Boden's office in their 'meeting,' hating every second of this, the tension, the fact that he was continuing to be lectured even after he finished that stupid class. Riddle was trying to rattle them, telling Boden he couldn't run his house, telling Severide he wasn't getting his Lieutenant position back, at least not anytime soon.

"Chief this is crazy."

"Severide, we're not discussing it," Boden said looking between him and Riddle.

"But Chief," he started, but stopped seeing the look on Wallace's face. Shaking his head, he got up and left the office, giving the death stare to the Patterson on his way out. Wanting nothing more than to go into his office and shut out all of this, but he no longer had one. He paced back and forth in the locker room frustrated. Running his hands through his hair, he hit his locker door slamming it closed. The alarm sounded and he didn't think he had ever been happier to have a call. He could take out all of his frustrations with the house and everything that happened to Dawson out on saving someone.

Getting to the scene, Kelly began telling his squad what to do out of habit, but was quickly corrected by Dallas. Nodding he put his head down and listened to Patterson give them all the orders and followed the rest of his squad in to put out the fire.

Knocking on Erin's door he huffed a little, he needed to see her. The day had been too long and he couldn't take it. The person opening the door though? Not who he wanted to see at all. Jay stood there awkwardly looking at the fireman. Lindsay walked over and felt the tension between the two of them, "hey, Kelly."

"Hi," he replied irritated.

"I'm gonna go," Jay said grabbing his jacket, "Erin I'll see you tomorrow." She nodded as he walked out.

Seeing the look on Kelly's face, she began to explain, "I know how this looks, but I promise nothing happened. He knew a guy for the couch, so he helped me bring it in, that's it." He nodded, still not looking at her, "Kelly…"

"What do you expect me to say? You know I don't like that guy."

"He's my partner."

"And I get that, but why did you have to ask him for help?"

"I just asked him if he knew a guy, that's it."

He nodded again, "I should go."

"Come on Kelly, don't be like that. Stay."

"And what sit on yours and Halstead's couch?" And with that he turned around and was out the door.

Erin shook her head, not completely sure what had just happened, but hating the knot she now had in her stomach.

Things were no better the next day at 51, Gabby was back on active duty, but of course not without the disapproval of Riddle. They were all sick of him and his agenda to take down their house.

Chili and Brett had the idea to have the couple they had saved the day before's wedding at the firehouse. They figured it would be good for all of them to get involved with something other than the attack on their squad. Boden on the other hand, didn't think it was a good idea at all. To him, it was just a way to get noticed and to continue to be on Riddle's bad side.

That was of course until her met the bride to be and her mother. That on top of Riddle bringing up the baby just to rattle Gabby pushed Wallace to the limit. He decided that if the other Chief wanted a fight, he'd get one. This was his house, a family house, a community house and he'd be damned if anyone was going to tell him otherwise.

He walked over to his squad sitting in the common area. "Brett, I want you to get back on planning this wedding. We're gonna host it here. 51 is a family house, we are here for our community and that isn't gonna change because we're under the microscope."

Brett started going down her checklist of things that needed to be done by tomorrow for the wedding. They wanted to do everything they could for this couple, especially when they knew it was the one thing keeping the future husband going. Hermann made the suggestion to get the Chaplain to do the wedding, he knew it was something he'd be happy to do.

In between calls throughout the day everyone at 51 was doing their best to make sure they got everything perfect. Riddle came in to have a meeting with Boden, Severide, and Patterson. To say he was mad about the wedding was an understatement. "I don't think it's appropriate to be having something like this in your firehouse!"

"We're a community house, our doors are open to those who need help," Boden replied trying to keep his calm.

"Severide, if you were reinstated right now, would you support this wedding happening at 51?"

"If it was for a good cause, yes I would, and I do."

"And that is one of the reasons you're staying on the sidelines of this squad, you need to learn from Patterson's example. This is the problem with your squad Boden, your people have no respect for authority. Severide, Dawson, they should not be rewarded for insubordinate behavior."

Boden stood up, fury all over his face, "if you have a problem with me, do not take it out on my men. And I will be happy to take this up with the commissioner, because he is not retired yet." With that both Riddle and Patterson left the chief's office.

It had been a long week, that's all there was to it. With everything happening at 51, Gabby's accident, plus his fight with Erin, Severide felt like nothing could possibly get worse. Hearing the knock at his door he groaned, he was not in the mood for company.

Kelly opened his door and sighed seeing Erin standing there, part of him hoped it was her, he knew that he had overreacted, he was glad she was here now. "I come baring gifts," she said handing him a six pack.

"You always bring me beer," he laughed her 'gift' and letting her into his apartment.

"Are you complaining?" she asked walking into his kitchen and leaning against the counter.

"No," he laughed lightly, opening one of the bottles and taking a swig. There was a silence between them, both standing there awkwardly not knowing what to say to the other. "I'm sorry," Severide said quietly.

Lindsay almost laughed at his apology, not because it was funny, but because he just looked so damn cute. Grabbing one of the beers she had brought over, she headed over and plopped down on the fireman's couch. He watched her and the shook his head, following her over, taking a seat next to her. She took his free hand in hers, linking their fingers, "I guess I just want to know why you freaked out. I mean it's not like you don't know Jay and I are friends."

He shrugged lightly, looking down at the bottle in his hand. "I…I guess I was jealous."

"I thought Kelly Severide didn't get jealous," she joked.

"Ha Ha…I just lately I've been thinking about us and our future. We're always crashing at each other's places, that's not enough anymore…I guess I just thought if you were picking out a couch with someone, it should be me."

She smiled looking at him, listening to his words. He was still looking down, but he was telling her everything he felt and it made sense. He wanted to be the guy she went to for everything and he should be. But bigger than that, he wanted them to move in together. He didn't have to say it to know what he meant. They had kind of talked about it before, but never in a serious conversation. She'd be lying if she said she hadn't thought about it herself. He was right, they were always sleeping at one apartment or the other, the only time they slept alone was when Kelly was on a night shift or if they were fighting. Placing her hands on each side of his face, she made him look at her. "I'm sorry," he went to interrupt her, but she put her finger on his lips. "I should have talked to you about the couch. I'll tell jay tomorrow it's not gonna work out, then you and I can go pick one out together."

He leaned in and kissed her lightly, missing the feel of her lips on his, he pulled away smiling, "you can keep the Jay couch," Severide said with a huff.

Lindsay laughed, "I don't think I want it if you're gonna keep calling it the Jay couch…you were right though. We'll go and pick our couch."

"Our couch?"

"Yeah, it'll just stay at my apartment until we decide on an apartment," it was her turn to look down at her bottle. This was a big step for both of them, but one that they were both ready to take. Pulling her in closer, Kelly kissed the top of her head. "I love you."

He smiled, hearing her whispered words and he kissed her again. "51's hosting a wedding tomorrow for this couple we saved, be my date?"

"I'd love to."

The wedding at the firehouse came together perfectly. They all prayed that they wouldn't have any calls, at least until after the ceremony. Erin walked in to the firehouse smiling, it looked good, she was proud of what all of them had accomplished. Her smile widened seeing Severide standing over to the side talking to Brett, Otis, & Cruz. They were all talking about the music for the wedding, Brett saying something about doing it, but not alone. She waited to make sure they no longer needed her fireman before pulling him toward her.

He smiled at the site of her, "glad you could make it."

"Yeah, me too, it's been pretty slow at the district today, but if I get a call from Voight, I'm gonna have to go."

"That's understandable."

"You should wear your uniform home more often; you look so hot," she said leaning into him, pulling him down for a kiss.

"You know we could just skip the wedding, I have a cot, everyone will be out here."

She smacked his chest playfully, "come on, lets go find seats."

Lindsay and Severide sat in the back with the rest of the 51 family. She smiled watching as they exchanged their vows, Kelly smiled watching Erin. He smiled at her beauty, he smiled at her smile, he smiled at the thought of their future. He took her hand and she turned her head to look at him, giving his hand a squeeze.

After the ceremony, the gang all hang out at the station, eating cake and relaxing until they got a call. Kelly stood bad smiling, watching Erin joke with Cruz and Casey. Gabby walked up next to him, looking between him and the detective, "things are getting pretty serious with you too huh?"

Severide tried not to blush, his smile getting wider. "She's something."

"She has to be if she could do this to you."

"Hey," Kelly turned pretending to be offended.

"All joking aside, I'm really happy for you Kel, Erin really is great. We've had a few late night girl talks down at Molly's, she's definitely a keeper," Dawson said patting him on his arm before joining Casey and Lindsay. For the first time in too long things felt good, back to normal. The tension in the house was gone, at least for the day.

So since there is a new episode of Fire tonight, you guys should expect another chapter :) I'm trying to get these done as the episode's air. I know this one is a little late, but I really wanted to do something cute with the wedding & kind of do that episode in it's own chapter.
