Matt.

I just wanted to get this day over, I had a double shift. 16 hours because I needed the money to give to my sister for letting me stay with her. I got to work and Gabby was already sat there with Kelly all laughing and smiling. I don't know why but I had her engagement ring in my pocket in the box. I went in and sat at the table on my phone.


"Matt and Gabby can I borrow you?" Chief smiled, we got up and relunctantly went in to his office together, stood really far apart and looked at him, not each other.


"What is happening?"


"He cheated, we are done." She sighed.


"Gabby. We've had a arguement, taken some time apart." I smiled.


"Don't let this affect your relationship in work okay?" He smiled before ushering us out of the office, she went straight back to Gabby and I sat just down the table. I went on my phone just listening to their conversation. It was about nothing really. Just Brett and some people asking what happened.


"I feel like someone needs to say this. We support you both, no one is picking sides. We hope your both okay." Herman smiled before sitting down again. It didn't take long before we got the first call out. Small fire in a hotel or something, we didn't even need a ambulance. We all just headed out leaving Gabby and Brett in the firehouse. It really didn't take long before we got back.

"You miss him right?" Brett smiled.


"Brett I do miss him. I love him. So much." I sobbed, I kept my back to her while I cooked up some lunch for everyone.


"Why don't you try and sort things out then? Just talk it through and stuff."


"Because he slept with someone else. Like clearly he doesn't love me." I sighed.


"What did you do after the arugement?"


"Threw things around the room, cried, sat heart broken. accidently kissed Kelly." I sighed.


"Kissed Kelly?"


"Yeah we kinda made out for a while, nearly slept together but I pushed him away and told him I loved Matt."


"Yeah and Matt loves you too. You know I love you. No feelings we're involved when I slept with the girl. It was a stupid mistake. I'm sorry. I love you more than anything and I know you love me too." Matt's voice came from the door. I couldn't turn round and face him knowing he'd heard that, I kept cooking and tried to talk to him as well.


"I know I love you but I also know you know how hurt I am. But yes I love you. The one thing I ask is please can we discuss this when we get home? Because I don't fancy talking about this right now." I smiled, I heard his footsteps come closer to me and he kissed my cheek. I smiled again as he walked off and sat down, everyone kind of just sat around and did their own thing. I served everyone up a plate of curry. Everyone tucked in quite happily. I sat on the window ledge and watched everyone talking away and stuff. Matt needed to go and check on something so he left a bit early with Brett. I went out onto the foreground and started cleaning down the ambulance when I heard gunshots.


"51 to Main I hear gun shots about 2 blocks east." I said quietly through the radio. Then as I went to close the doors, 4 men came running into the firehouse, 3 with guns, 1 was bleeding. I froze. I had 3 guns pointed at my head.


"Help him right now."


"I need help." I sighed.


"What the hell? This is a firehouse. You don't come in here with some guns out and act like you own the place!" Herman shouted as they all came through the door. One of the gun lads was stood behind me gun pressed up against my head. I was holding a rag on the guys gun wound.


"Gabby don't move." Chief mouthed to me. I nodded and I felt a few tears falling down my cheeks.


"I promise I'll fix him up. Let's get him to a bunk okay?" I smiled, he pushed me towards the injured lad. I picked him up because in all fairness he was only little. I took him into the bunks and laid him on a bed before placing some gauz into his open wound. This was when I needed Brett. I was shaking but I began trying to sort him out.


"I need to go and get my needle from the shower room?" I sighed.


"I'll come with you." He pushed me again, gun right against my neck as we went into the shower room, I went to the cupboard and got some more gauz, needles and everything and we headed back. I was shaking. I knew if I didn't do this right I would be dead. I got back and prepared the needle.


"Woah no needles. If he dies, you die. What are you going to do?"


"I need to put a needle in, he ha a collasped lung, I need to put a needle in his lung to release the pressure so he can breath because currently he isn't breathing. I did the needle thing and it took a few attempts before he began breathing again. When the gunman turned away I ran away, I knew I was risking my life but I ran into the common room and had 2 more guns pointed at me. I just reliesed we were all being held hostage and they were all in the common room, they had confiscated all our radio's and phones and I could hear my phone going off and I knew it was Matt.

I pulled back up to the firehouse, Brett stood with me. There were police everywhere, armed police and everything. I jumped out and ran up to a police officer.


"What's going on?"


"You can't go in."


"I'm Matt Casey. I own truck 51, my fiancee is in there. Gabby Dawson? I'm alderman Matt Casey. Please tell me what's going on?"


"Your whole firehouse including your chief is being held hostage by 4 gun men we believe. Currently we've heard no gun shots but we are waiting on a count down."


"Oh my god okay." I sighed, I was getting anxious stood there.


*
Now with 3 guns pointed at my head I didn't know what to do. I was escorted out onto the grounds with the trucks and everything. The door's were down but I could hear all the police outside. I just wanted Matt.

(KELLY'S P.O.V)
I managed to sneak out and went behind the firetruck. I saw them stood with Chief and Gabby, guns pointed at them both. I went around and managed to take one down, but we were having a fight on the floor. Then in the moment of him dropping the gun on the floor, he accidently pulled the trigger and it shot across and then I saw blood splatter and Gabby fell to the floor.


*
"That was a gun shot." I shouted.


"1,2,3 In!" The police officer shouted, as they went in and within minutes they arrested all the 3 gunmen and took the injured one too. I ran in after them and it was a mess.


"Gabby?" I shouted running through the building, then as I went onto the floor, I saw Brett and Chief placing Gauz and all different stuff onto Gabby as they got her up sat up against the door, as I went over she stood up and wobbly ran to me and hugged me, her grey shirt dyed red with blood. She's been shot in the sholder. I cried, as she cried on me. Brett helped me to get her sorted and onto the ambulance and we took her to med.

After that commotion, Brett and Matt took Gabby to Chicago Med, Chief had a talk with his team about how brave they were and everything, they all cleared up the blood and everything through the firehouse and then took the rest of the night off.


Matt didn't leave Gabby's side while she had small open surgery on her shoulder to remove the bullet. He was so happy she was okay and she was so happy she had her Matt back.

"I love you."


"I think I just might love you again too."
