Samantha-Jane

As I walked up the driveway with my bag over my shoulder making the walk I’d been wanting to make for years. Not only just to be part of the firehouse but to see my brother which he had denied many times. I walked onto the apparatus floor looking about 

“Carver is it?” A man asked and I nodded 

“Rebecca Carver” I smiled holding my hand out and he shook it 

“Kelly Severide. Boden told me you’ve already had a tour and all you need to do is sign a bit of paperwork.” I nodded listening to his every words following him as he started to walk “Your turnout gear is already on the left side of Squad. I try to put everyone's out when I come in” I nodded 

“Thank you Lieutenant” I smiled as he walked into the Chief’s office 

“Ah Becca” Boden smiled and I smiled back. I try to get most people to call me Becca. I just like it better. 

“Morning Chief” I smiled and he placed some papers on his desk 

“Sign these and I’ll start my spiel” I smiled signing the papers as he started his talk. About how everyone is family and if I ever had a problem with a slight problem with anyone that I can go to him. Talking about how everything should be done by the book but not to be afraid of doing whatever is right. He then started about how I should just listen to whatever Severide says and the basic rules of the firehouse. “Well, then Becca. I’ll let you get to work” I smiled looking at Severide who nodded 

“I’ll catch up with you in a minute” I walked out and through to the locker room. I had stopped by yesterday to look around the place and meet Chief Boden without the rest of my shift being here. I waited in the locker room for Severide who smiled over as he walked in “Erm, here's a locker” He said after looking at them for a minute or two. I smiled as he handed me the roll of masking tape and a pen before walking out. I pulled a bit of tape off before putting it on the locker and writing ‘B. Carver’ on it. I looked at the lockers next to mine, Sam's and Mouch. I put my bag in before quickly getting changed before the rest of the shift walked in. The navy blue pants, the navy blue squad shirt and the squad zip up. I sat down on the bench pulling my boots on as the rest of the shift started walking in. I locked my locker up before walking out looking for Severide. 

“Lieutenant” I said walking over and he looked up 

“Call me Severide. What can I do for you?” He asked and I nodded at his first comment 

“Mind if I get myself used to your squad? I know you’ll probably have everything in a different place to where my old squad previously used to have them” I asked and he nodded

“Knock yourself out Carver I’ll call you over when the rest of this lot is here. Still too early for them” He chuckled and I smiled 

“Please call me Becca. It’s what I’ve always been called and I’d like to keep it that way” Severide nodded and I walked over to Squad. I looked through all the compartments getting myself used to where everything was even starting to test myself just to make sure I had it down. I was still doing that when I heard a voice 

“Becca?” I looked up from the compartment I had just looked into to see Sam standing next to me. I looked up at him 

“Oh hey Sam” I smiled getting up still unfortunately having to look up at him 

“What are you doing here? What happened to Squad Six?” He asked with a frown as I shut the compartment 

“Well I got transferred because Walker is a sexist fucker” I hummed 

“Language!” He exclaimed and I shrugged 

“I’m not eighteen any more Sam” Sam rolled his eyes walking off. “And even if I was eighteen. I’m still older” I reminded him and he turned around shaking his head 

“You just had to come here didn’t you? Just when things get normal for me you or Nathan have to come and force your ways into my life. You left Rebecca, not me!” 

“Oh so now it was my choice to leave was it?” I asked looking up at him and he shook his head walking off “This isn’t over Samson!” I exclaimed walking back out to the squad. I shrugged him off before climbing into the back of Squad and looking around at all the equipment in there. Memorising where everything was, was going to save time on calls and in the end save peoples lives faster. When I looked up Severide was standing at the other end of the squad. I jumped a little 

“Sorry. I’ve just put the pieces together” He said sitting down. I knew what he was talking about. 

“What gave it away?” I asked sitting opposite him 

“All of it but I’ve just had a read of your record as well” I looked down knowing that everything was unfortunately in there “What makes you think that I should trust you?” He asked 

“Look at the criminal record. I’ve served my time for that. As for the insubordination, well not my fault none of the lieutenants don’t want a woman on their teams.That’s what it’s all came down to. The fact I’m a woman and the first on Squad. If you don’t want me here I’d prefer you just tell me now so that I can look for another job without having to go through all the insubordination reports” I replied 

“Criminal record?” He exclaimed and I nodded slightly 

“I was a teenager and like I said I’ve done my time for that. I spent three years in Juvenile detention hence why Sam is so annoyed and I quote ‘Left us all alone’. They were petty crimes. Theft of food that kind of thing” I explained and he nodded 

“I want you on my team, Carver. At least for this shift. I want to see how you work before I make my mind up. I know the Lieutenants on the second shift Squad are sexist. I’ve worked with them all before and I’ve seen it first hand but there's a lot of insubordination on your record but from your Chief’s there's a lot of good things. The only way I can decide is by seeing you work. Now I get that sometimes Lieutenants and their Squad don’t agree on matters but I’ll always attempt to listen to your ideas unless it’s gonna take too long” I nodded looking at him 

“Come on. Breakfast is ready and the other three are here now” I got up with a slight nod putting everything back where I had found it. I followed him from the back of Squad over to the table 

“Cruz, Capp, Tony. This is Rebecca Carver, our newest member from today. Becca this is Harold Capp, Tony Ferraris and” I cut him off 

“Joe Cruz” I smiled as Joe gave me a hug 

“You two know each other?” He asked and I nodded 

“When I ended up on Engine Sixty-sixty, Becca was on Truck eighty-six” He briefly explained and I just left it there with a nod 

“Well I’m sure you know how well she works then” Severide nodded 

“She's great Lieutenant. You’ll love how she works” I smiled at Joe. Now he was just being nice. “Come on Becca. You want anything to eat?” He asked walking inside 

“Nah I’m good. I eat before shift” I nodded

“Forgot about that. Coffee?” He asked, turning around in the doors and I nodded following after him. He wrapped an arm around my shoulder “This is gonna be great” He cheered and I smiled, shaking my head as I walked with him. I poured myself a cup of decaffeinated coffee watching Joe fight for his breakfast. Before I knew it everyone was called into the meeting room everyone was taking their respective seats. I just hung about at the back in the corner 

“Good morning everyone. So quick briefing this morning because I know that your Lieutenants are desperate to start cleaning” There was a groan all around the room at the word cleaning. What’s wrong with cleaning? I like it “So I’m sure everyone guessed it’s cleaning day. The quicker you get started the quicker you get finished. I’d like you all to welcome the new member of Squad. Rebecca Carver. Squad opened up a fifth seat for her so please treat her like family” Suddenly all eyes were on me and it’s safe to say it was very awkward. Joe had a massive smile on his face and Sam didn’t even look at me “Alright everyone. Dismissed” Everyone slowly started leaning the meeting room with some introducing themselves as they passed. Soon it was just Sam and I left in the meeting room. 

“I’m not here because you’re here Sam. I’m here because Severide runs the best Squad in the city. Even then that’s not why I’m here. I got pink slipped by all three Lieutenant’s in my firehouse. Insubordination for running into a fire believe it or not. Not like that’s what I’m trained to do or anything” I moved sitting on the table in front of him “I didn’t leave because I wanted to. I’m not going to leave again. Not unless Severide also pink slips me then I’m well and truly out of a job” I looked down at him for once as he caught my eyes

“I might have overreacted just a little bit. But it is true. I got settled here and Nathan came and asked me for a whole load of money and I stupidly gave it to him then I get settled again and in walks Rebecca to save the day on Squad” He shook his head “Where were you when I needed someone?” He asked and I looked down at my lap 

“You know where I was and you know that you could have come and seen me Sam! You’re the only one who never did” I got up just as the bells went 

“Firehouse fifty-one, battalion twenty-five. Structure Fire 382 South Ada Street” 

I ran out to squad pulling my turnout gear on before climbing into Squad before Capp had even opened the door. Severide let out a little hum as he turned to look at me 

“Bonus points for beating Capp” I chuckled a little, pulling my tank on and checking my mask.

“Don’t get cocky out there Carver” I looked at Joe with a nod

“I’ve changed since the last time we worked together” I smiled checking I had enough air and all my tools were where I liked them as Tony started to drive. Tony soon parked outside a house and I looked out the window. A house. Fully inflamed. We all jumped out looking at Boden 

“Squad I want a primary search. As quick as you can. Truck get that roof vented” Boden ordered 

“Alright. Carver, I want you with me. Tony, Capp take the first floor. Cruz sees if Kidd needs any help if not join Carver and I on the second floor” I grabbed my halligan before walking behind Severide over to the door. “Ready Carver?” He asked and I nodded, pulling my SCBA on then my hood and helmet. Severide kicked the door in and I followed him up the stairs. 

“Fire Department” I called out as I opened a door letting Severide walk on. I searched the room, pulling out the bed and opening the closets. “Clear in here Lieutenant” I radioed to him before catching up with him as he had found people in one of the rooms. 

“Carver take the kids” He ordered and I picked the oldest up, placing them on my hip before picking up the baby in my other arm. 

“Cruz is here” I informed him nodding to Cruz as he walked in “Cruz help Severide” I told him and Severide shook his head 

“I’m okay. Help Carver” I shook my head

“I can manage these two Lieutenant. Stairs are still clear.” I replied walking out of the room and downstairs. 

“Carver is coming out” Joe radioed as I got to the front door and walked through all the smoke. As I got to the bottom of the porch stairs Sam came over taking the oldest kid from me while Violet took the baby. 

“Both found in one of the bedrooms. Severide is coming out with an adult female. Around 30. Burns on the left side of her body” I told them taking my SCBA off and moving out of the way for Joe and Severide

“Ambulance sixty-one to dispatch. I need two more ambos to my location” Brett radioed in as I walked over to Squad. Just as I pulled my tank off Severide and Joe walked out the house with the women. See I knew that stubborn ass needed help. 

“House is clear chief” Severide called over to Boden who then ordered Engine to put the fire out. I walked over to the ambo to check on the kids.

Brett looked over with a sad look and I looked down at the baby who was now intubated. I sighed walking back over to Squad. I put my tank back in its home with my mask as I looked back over at sixty-one Severide had just shut the doors and it sped off. I sighed looking back over to the house that still had smoke pouring out of it as the water removed the heat from the fire. 

“Good job in there Carver” Severide tapped my shoulder and I nodded a bit. 

“I don’t want you to think I’m emotional” I explained and he shook his head 

“If you’re not emotional at this job then that’s when I worry especially when it’s kids” I nodded a bit “Come on let’s go see if we can find out how this started” He grabbed another halligan and I did the same following him inside. I wasn’t a fan of overhaul or finding out how fires started but Severide was obviously interested in how they started. 

“It was a candle” I pointed to the starting point where the candle holder had made it through the fire and Severide nodded “If she had fallen asleep, the kid knocked it over. All possible” I shrugged and he nodded 

“Guess that didn’t help” I shook my head 

“I’ll get over it eventually. Just like everyone I have my ways of dealing with sad calls” I shrugged walking upstairs and he nodded following. 

“I walked into the bedroom picking up our halligans before turning around with Severide right behind me. I smiled a little

“Got everything?” He asked and I nodded now following him down the stairs. When we got out to squad I put the halligans back into their compartment before climbing in. 

“I think we need a trip out” Severide hummed and I looked at him. Joe raised his brows 

“Boat trip the day after tomorrow. Get to know Becca a little more” I looked at him 

“Think I’m busy” I joked 

“Mandatory Carver” I shook my head 

“Don’t worry. I have no plans ever” I shrugged as Tony reversed onto the apparatus floor. I jumped out of Squad, pulling my turnout gear off before walking into the common room. I poured myself another cup of coffee and leaned against the counter as someone stood next to me 

“Blake Gallo. Didn’t get time to talk to you before the call out” He smiled and I turned to look at him 

“Becca Carver” I nodded 

“Can I ask you a question?” He asked and I nodded 

“You just did” I joked 

“Another one” I nodded

“Go on” I smiled, turning to look at him as I took a sip of the coffee. 

“Why Squad?” He asked 

“To be honest with you. I just did the training for fun” I shrugged “Then obviously I finished the training and got offered a spot on Squad twelve I think it was. Bounced around for a while. Squad’s not a typical place for women. Landed up here and hoping I’m going to stay here for a nice little while” I explained and he nodded 

“Makes sense. I hope you’ll like it here” He walked around to the fridge and I nodded walking out to the Squad table. 

“Where should I start cleaning?” I asked Severide and he looked up 

“You want to clean?” He asked and I nodded slightly 

“I enjoy cleaning? That a problem?” I asked and he shook his head 

“Nope. I mean you can mop the apparatus floor if you want” He shrugged and I walked inside looking for the cleaning supplies. I looked up as Joe walked in 

“Joe. Where’s the cleaning supplies?” I asked and he waved me over. I followed him into a cupboard. 

“Everything is in here” I smiled with a nod. I grabbed the mop and bucket before walking into the showers and filling the bucket up with water and bleach before pushing it out to the apparatus floor. I started mopping it down 

“Hey Lieutenant” I called and he looked over “Can we move the trucks or do you want me to just work around them?” I asked

“Tony go move Squad, Capp get Herrmann, Kidd and Brett to move their trucks” I smiled in appreciation as I moved out of the way of Tony

“Yo Severide? Why are we to move?” Herrmann asked walking out of the common room 

“Becca is mopping the floors. Can’t do it with a fourteen tonne truck on top of it” He shrugged

“Why’s the new kid mopping the floors?” Kidd asked 

“Because she wanted to. I was gonna leave the cleaning to you lot” He shrugged and Kidd looked over 

“You wanted to clean?” She asked and I nodded 

“After a call like that cleaning helps me to relax” I shrugged just as the bells went yet again

“Ambulance sixty-one, truck eighty-one, squad three. Multi-vehicle crash. Highway ninety” 

“Guess cleaning will have to wait” I shoved the mop and bucket away before running over to squad. I pulled my turnout gear on before jumping in. 

“So I was just reading your record” Severide started and I looked at him

“Thought you read that already” I shrugged 

“Not your academy and squad training records” I nodded slightly 

“You got some pretty good times there Becca. Bet some of mine unfortunately” He chuckled and I smiled a little 

“Which ones Severide?” Capp asked 

“You’d like to know” Severide chuckled

“That’s why I asked” Capp shrugged and I chuckled 

“Repelling and water rescue” I replied

“How do you know Carver?” Severide questioned and I shrugged 

“After I beat them, instructors would tell me how long you went unbeaten against them.” 

“Of course he would” Severide shook his head jumping out of Squad. I climbed out and looked at the crash with a frown. Two cars. Three victims in one car and not a single person in the second car. The windscreen was smashed in the second car. I looked about with a frown. Walking over to the edge of the bridge and climbing over the railings and looking into the water “Carver, what the hell are you doing?” Severide asked through the radio. I looked back before climbing back over the railing onto the bridge as Severide stood behind me. I smiled a little sheepishly “Well?” He asked 

“I was checking if the driver of the red car wasn’t in the water. Sorry Lieutenant. I won’t do it again” I replied and he nodded slightly 

“And is the driver in the water?” He asked 

“Inconclusive” I replied 

“Then gear up” I jogged over to squad pulling my turnout jacket off. I pulled my turnout pants and my uniform quickly off before pulling the wetsuit on before jogging back over to the bridge where Joe was now set up for a water rescue. As I looked at Joe Tony and Capp were already tying me to Joe

“Be safe down there Becca” He smiled and I nodded, pulling the mask over my face and opening the valve on the tank before letting myself down into the water. 

Just another rescue. I muttered to myself. I was never allowed to do one of these before. ‘Too weak’ I was always told never mind being allowed to do one for myself. I soon spotted someone swimming over to them. It was a teenage girl. I grabbed her under the arms before tugging on my rope twice letting Joe know I had the victim. I quickly attached her to the spare rope tugging it three times to tell the boys to pull her up. I wanted to look about just in case there was someone else with her. I’d never forgive myself if there was. And I was right. I grabbed the teenage boy by the shirt, taking my rope off and securing it to him before tugging on it three times. I surfaced from the water looking up at the bridge. I could see Severide shake his head before I removed my mask 

“Another victim coming up” I shouted looking around before pointing to land where I was going to swim to. Severide shook his head as Sam appeared at the edge of the bridge 

“Carver just wait there. Rope is coming down” Severide called back down and I swam over in the direction of the rope. If I caught this then it would be a total miracle. I did have to swim over to the rope but I soon secured it to myself before giving them a nod that they could pull me back up.  I was soon being pulled back up into the air and before I knew it Severide was pulling my over the railing by my wetsuit 

“I’m okay Lieutenant” I responded and he nodded 

“Don’t ever take your line off again” He warned and I nodded 

“Sorry Lieutenant” I replied looking down. Severide walked off and I walked back to squad. I knew Sam was following me “Go do your job Sam. You can lecture me later” I replied, getting in the back and pulling the door shut behind me. I rubbed my face as I sat down on the bench and removed the wet suit. I hung it back up before grabbing a towel and quickly drying myself off. I pulled my uniform back on along with my turnout pants before stepping out of Squad. I pulled my radio over my body before walking over to Chief figuring it was best to stay out of the way. 

“That was reckless Becca and so stupid. But I have to admit it was a good save” Boden looked down at me and I looked up at him 

“Sorry Chief. I’m just going to stay out the way” I replied and he shook his head 

“Go help your team. They need it. If Severide says otherwise he’s got me to deal with” I walked back over to Severide. 

“Carver grab the other side of the backboard” He ordered and I did as told by taking the other side of the backboard so that Capp could run around the car and help from the other side. I looked into the car. It was just a young woman left inside. She couldn’t have been older than maybe twenty-five. How her life was going to change. Once she was on the backboard we quickly moved it onto the stretcher before letting the paramedics whisk her away “Carver go get a brush” I nodded walking over to Squad where Sam was standing with the brush for me. 

“Figured you’d need this.” I rolled my eyes at his petty behaviour, taking the brush and walking off. I sweeped up all the broken glass to the side of the road so that the road could get opened quicker. As Capp and Tony put all the gear away and Severide stood about supervising. Joe walked over standing next to me as I sweeped the pile as close to the side as I could 

“That was a good save. No matter how dangerous it was. Severide would have done the same thing so don’t let him or Boden or anyone else tell you otherwise Becca. We all know that you did what you had to” Capp nodded standing next to him

“Don’t beat yourself up, Carver. You saved that kid's life. We save some, we lose some. That’s part of the job unfortunately” I smiled a little leaning against the brush as the recovery truck came into sight. 

“Thanks guys” I nodded to them in appreciation before putting the brush away. I threw my turnout jacket on my seat before walking over to Severide. 

“Good save Becca. Just don’t scare us like that again please. Cruz almost dropped that kid when he realised it wasn’t you” I shrugged a little 

“Life would be boring if I didn’t scare him every so often when working with him” Severide chuckled 

“Come on then” He chuckled walking over to Squad “Let’s go squad” He called and I climbed into the back. I rested my head back against the window. Re-doing my bun as Tony drove back to the firehouse. 

“Lieutenant. We need to fuel up” Tony informed Severide who nodded

“Just do it Tony” We got to the gas station and I sat up. 

“I’ll do it” I exclaimed, getting out of Squad. I walked around and started filling Squad up. As I looked about I noticed a Chief’s buggy pull up. I smiled as my favourite Chief pulled up. Well he wasn’t exactly my chief but oh well. I walked over to his buggy “Boo” I chuckled walking up behind him

“Becs what are you doing here?” He asked looking about 

“I got transferred again. I’m with squad three” I smiled and he shook his head. In disappointment? Maybe.

“Again Becs?” He asked and I shrugged

“Hey I think Severide’s gonna keep me” I shrugged while walking backwards. 

“He better keep you. I don’t want you back” I smiled waving to him before getting back into Squad 

“You know Hawkins?” Severide asked and shrugged a little 

“Started off as partners when I used to be a paramedic. Then we dated a little. By a little I mean like a week? Maybe two? Then he became my chief. And now he’s just stuck with me” I shrugged as Joe laughed 

“Dated for four months” He laughed and I shook my head

“Hooked up for four months. Dated for two weeks” I replied and he shook his head laughing “You’re meant to be nice to me. Anyway, What’s this I hear about Mrs Cruz, baby Cruz and child Cruz?” I asked and he looked over proud 

“Chloe and I got married. Then adopted then had our own kid” I nodded listening to him “Javi we adopted after I rescued him from a fire. Brian is our own kid. Oh he’s so cute. I’ll show you pictures later” I smiled 

“Where was my invite to the wedding?” I asked dead seriously and he looked at me

“Didn’t think you’d want to come? You know. You always told me the stories” I gave him a look as if to say ‘you’re stupid’

“You’re stupid Joe Cruz” I hummed getting out of Squad as Tony parked 

“Hey that hurt” I shrugged as Sam came storming over. 

“What the hell was that Rebecca? Seriously? You just go risking your life for random teenagers? We both know you’re that stupid to do that! I don’t understand you Rebecca. You tell me that you’ve changed. That you don’t risk your life like you used to any more then you pull fucking stunts like that? In Chicago? In spring?” I shook my head as he raised his voice 

“This! This is why I got arrested. This whole. I’m better than you thing that you have going on! I tried my best to save you from Nathan. I did. I got arrested instead. I tried my best to change and not risk my life anymore but you know what. That was a teenager. With his whole life ahead of him. I was conscious. I can fucking swim Samson!” I exclaimed after pulling him onto the driveway away from the rest of the firehouse “I will always be older than you. You will always be the youngest child whether you want to be or not. I don’t care. If you’re not happy with me here then pink slip me. Get everyone involved. Do it. I dare you!” I challenged him walking away and inside the house 

“Hey Carver. Ridder cooked you want some?” Gallo asked and I shook my head walking to the bunk room. I knocked on the door to Kidds quarters who waved me in 

“Girl to girl. You care if I hide in here for a little?” I asked and she motioned to the bed for me “I’m gonna explain everything to you because Sam won’t” I replied sitting on her bunk and she nodded looking up from her paperwork 

“Oh please do. He’s harder to break than Mouch” I chuckled 

“Sam’s my little brother. He’s got this stick up his ass because I got sent to juvie after trying to save him from my other younger brother. Sam’s older brother. I’m the oldest. I think Sam thinks that I’m here to sabotage him. I’m not. This was the only firehouse I hadn’t been at. Sexist Lieutenants. I’m sure you understand that one. Anyway he also likes to think that he’s older than me and does this whole protective thing” I explained and she nodded 

“So what happened to his arm? That true?” She asked and I nodded 

“Yeah. It was about a week, maybe two before I got sent to Juvie. I was seventeen. Nate was fifteen and Sam was about nineish. I was leaving for college. I tried to steal some food for Sam. I had enough to pay for myself but I was gonna take him with me. I didn’t make it to college or manage to save Sam” I looked down playing with my hands “I failed as a sister in that respect. Nathan’s always been the golden child. Could never do anything wrong. Me on the other hand. I was disowned. I don’t know about Sam though. We’d talk a lot as we grew up and I managed to get into the academy. He wasn’t happy about it at first but we got there. I can see that Sam likes it here and if that means I’ve got to leave then I will” I added and she frowned 

“I don’t think you should leave. What are you going to do if you leave?” She asked

“I might have an in as a paramedic. Helps that the Chief really likes me” I chuckled and she shook her head with a laugh 

“Look as Sam’s Lieutenant I appreciate that whole story” She motioned with her hands and I smiled a little “But from firefighter to firefighter. Don’t give up on that Squad part. From girl to girl. You’re welcome to hide out in here any time” I smiled over to her 

“Thanks Lieutenant” I smiled 

“Call me Stella” 

“Then call me Becca” I smiled, taking my phone out of my pocket. I checked my messages “I’m gonna go get some food” I got up walking out of her quarters. I walked into the common room as Ridder held up a plate and I nodded walking over

“I don’t need to start cooking any vegan or vegetarian options do I?” He asked and I shook my head

“Just no shellfish. I’m allergic” I replied 

“Don’t worry. I can’t cook seafood” I smiled, taking the plate from him as he handed it to me.

“It’s just spaghetti bolognese. You missed the garlic bread though” 

“Don’t worry about it. Thanks Ridder” I sat down at the little circle table in the corner of the room not wanting to interrupt any conversations or sit anywhere where I wasn’t meant to. I looked up as I felt someone sit next to me. 

“So Becca can you cook?” Gallo asked 

“Do you want the firehouse standing?” I asked and he chuckled 

“I’ll take that as a no” 

“Then you’d be right,” I nodded, taking another bite. “I can bake though” I added and his head picked up. 

“Seriously? Oh you’ve got to let us try some” He replied Ridder sitting down nodding his head at the same time

“Maybe. My apartment isn’t really big enough to cook in but maybe sometime” I shrugged

“I’m going to hold you to that Carver” Severide said walking in and I nodded

“Note the fact I said. Maybe” I replied and he shrugged 

“You could bring something to the boat. Let us test your baking before the rest of the house” I chuckled a little 

“Maybe. Just maybe” I chuckled. I looked over at the clock. Thirteen hours into shift. How time goes so fast I will never know. “I’m gonna hit the beds before the bells go off again. Thanks Ridder” I got up putting my plate into the dishwasher. I walked through to the bunk room lying on an empty bunk that had no belongings next to it. I pulled my boots off before pulling the cover over myself. Scrolling on my phone until Gallo sat on the bunk next to me. 

“You picked a good bunk Carver” I chuckled, putting my phone down. “Night Becca” He smiled

It had been a horrible call, and the whole station knew about it. Everyone felt it in different ways. Many just stayed quiet, some going to the gym, but Eddie walked to his locker and stared at the little velvet box on the inside. Buck walked up behind him, placing his hands on Eddie’s shoulders. 

“You’ve still got that thing?” Buck 6 over his shoulder, and Eddie nodded

“I’ve just never found the right time to do it” He sighed, sitting on the bench and shutting the door to hide the ring box again. 

“Eddie. Do it now. God knows both you and Y/N, and well, everyone else in this station needs a little cheering up. You’re perfect for each other. You’ll never find a perfect time if you keep waiting” Buck shook his head, and Eddie looked over with a nod getting up. 

Meanwhile, you were sitting upstairs sipping on a cup of coffee to relieve the stress from the call. Hen, Chimney, and Bobby sat off to the side. Eddie rushed up the stairs and over to you. You looked over as he took the coffee cup out of your hands, exciting a whine from your lips. 

“You can get your coffee back in a minute, baby. I promise I just need to borrow you for a minute” He smiled, and you nodded, getting up and following him back down the stairs. Eddie walked you both to a hidden space behind the firetrucks where not a single person could see you no matter how busy it got. 

“Why are you down here? You’re not planning on killing me, are you?” You joked, and he shook his head.

“I’ve been fighting about this for ages. Buck finally talked some sense into me, and I figured no time like the present” You frowned, looking at him

“It definitely sounds like you’re about to kill me” Eddie held your hands, looking into your eyes. He gently placed a kiss to your knuckles before getting down on one knee. Your frown deepened as he dropped one of your hands and reached into one of his many pockets and pulled out the small velvet box. 

“Eddie, what are you doing?” You asked as he looked up at you, his hands shaking as he did. 

“Of course I will” You smiled as he slid the ring on your finger. He stood up, hugging you tightly as your lips pressed together for a long kiss. 

“I love you so much, Y/N. You’re the love of my life, and Christopher loves you, which also pushed my decision towards doing this because Christopher is everything to me. Well, joint number one because no one can ever beat Christopher. Now I’m blabbering” You smiled watching him.

“As I was saying. You’re the love of my life, and there’s no one else I would ever want to spend every day of my life with, and today after that call just helped me realise that even more. Y/N L/N I want to spend every day of my life with you, and I love you so much. Will you marry me?” He asked, and your hands covered your mouth as you started to tear up. You always proud yourself for not crying on shift

Later that night, everyone was gathered into Bobby’s house. Bobby cooking on the grill, May, Harry, Denny, and Christopher running about and playing with each other as you sat on Eddie’s lap. His hand wrapped around your waist and head resting on your shoulder as everyone talked. Music quietly played in the background as everyone sat talking. Your hands played with Eddie’s hands as you spoke to Maddie, who was cuddling Jee-Yun, who was happily falling asleep in your arms. 

Sat imagining how that could be you and Eddie in a few years. Christopher is off playing while you’re sitting cuddling your baby and Eddie at the same time. 

“Are you okay, baby? You’ve gone quiet?” Eddie asked quietly, pressing a kiss to your neck just under your ear. You nodded quietly, turning your head to place a kiss to his lips 

“Just imagining our future together” you whispered against his lips, and he smiled 

“Oh yeah? What does that look like?” He asked 

“Christopher off playing, us sat cuddling each other and our little baby” You smiled 

“You want a baby?” He asked, and you nodded 

“Of course I do. Do you?” You asked now just realising that the topic had never come up before

“I’d love to give Christopher a sibling” He smiled, pressing yet another kiss to your lips. Your hands wrapped around his neck and softly played with the hair at the nape of his neck. The perfect way to end the day.

S.W.A.T

Having a brother in the best unit in the city had some perks but there were also a lot of disadvantages. When your boyfriend messaged saying that he had found your handbag in his car when he got to work this morning you thought nothing about just turning the car around and going to meet him to get it back. You had also forgotten you were in the same clothes you were in last night when Kevin came around to see you before you headed out on your date.

“Ah little Atwater. You want up to intelligence?” Trudy asked and you nodded 

“Yeah please Trudy” You smiled and she walked out from behind her desk walking you up to intelligence. “Thank you Trudy” You smiled as she walked away. Dante instantly smiled over as he saw you. 

“Hey Y/N what are you doing here?” Kevin asked walking over as he spotted you 

“I left my bag at Molly’s last night. I know it was stupid but there was nothing in it but make-up touch up and perfume.  Torres found it and I’m now just here to collect it” You smiled 

“You’re wearing the same clothes as yesterday” You looked down at your outfit due to your brothers words 

“I wear outfits more than once” You shrug as he gives to the protective look 

“I don’t trust you. I’ll find out who it is” He replied and you rolled your eyes. “I promise I will and I’ll hurt him” 

“Okay Kevin. You’re jumping to conclusions that there’s even anyone there” Kevin gave you a look as you rolled your eyes walking over to Dante. 

“I just left it in my car” He smiled 

“Okay. I’ll walk down with you” You shrug before following him downstairs and out to his car 

“It’s quite fun avoiding your brother” He hummed standing in front of you as you leaned against his car

“Is that right? You could have reminded me to get changed!” You exclaimed. You were hiding your relationship because Kevin typically scared all of your boyfriends off. 

“Oops” He smirked and you shook your head. Dante leaned down pressing a kiss to your lips “My house tonight?” He asked against your lips 

“Sounds like a plan to me, officer” You hummed. 

A couple hours later you were sitting in Dante’s house after he got home from work. You were meant to be watching a movie but in all honesty you were far more interested in him. 

“Enjoying the sight?” He teased with a smirk and you nodded. 

“I don’t know who wouldn’t. But they better not. You’re mine” You hummed as he moved so he was now on top of you. His arms holding him up next to your head

“Oh yeah? That right?” He teased and you nodded 

“I’ll kill them if they look at you” You hummed 

“I’d have to arrest you then” He replied 

“Hot” You shrugged and he smirked 

“Oh yeah?” You nodded looking up at him “Let’s see if you’re saying that later then Querida” You could feel the heat between your legs as he called you darling in Spanish. “Bedroom” He whispered against your ear before moving away. You happily complied walking through to the bedroom stripping off your clothes as you did. Laying on the bed as Dante walked in the room 

“mi niña hermosa” He whispered and you smiled putting your body weight on your forearms as he walked over taking his shirt off. You frowned as you saw new cuts and bruises on his chest. 

“Baby” You whispered running your fingertips over them 

“No. Tonight is all about you Querida” You smiled lying back as he carefully pushed you back. In one swift move he moved your panties down your legs and threw them to the other side of the room. His fingers moving from your hips down to your lips, barely touching you as he spread your wetness. Your hips moved subconsciously as you wanted his touch more and more. Sex with Dante was now something you craved. He moved up kissing you as his fingers began to rub circles on your clit. 

“More please” You whispered as he pressed kisses along your jaw, one finger sliding into you followed by a second causing a moan to escape from your lips. Dante with his other hand palmed his cock before pulling his boxers down and pushing in, filling you up. Dantes fingers are still working their magic on your clit as you grabbed the sheets on his bed. Head thrown back as you clenched around him, moans now more frequent as you felt the knot in your stomach tighten 

“Ven querida” Dante’s Spanish was all you needed to push you over the edge. Your body feeling as it was falling apart as Dante continued to thrust into, his thrusts now becoming more staggered. After a moment he pulled out, pressing a kiss to your head as you came back around from your high. 

“Querida. Need anything?” He asked and you shook your head 

“Just to clean up” You smiled now looking up at him. Dante disappeared for a moment before coming back with a cloth to clean you up. 

“Are you sure? No fruit juice, a little snack?” He asked being the complete gentleman that he was 

“No. I’m okay I promise” You smiled as he wrapped his arms around you “What inspired that sex?” You asked looking up at him
