Stand Down [Kelly Severide]

Stand Down [Kelly Severide] ⚠️

Description: Lieutenant Kelly Severide arrives on scene of a pileup and is asked to stand down by his Chief, only to discover his fiancée is caught up in the middle of it.

Warnings: Mentions of drug and alcohol abuse, multiple vehicle accident, traumatic injuries, cursing.

Winter has made its way to Chicago, and Firehouse Fifty-One has been running since early that morning when more people started getting on the roads.

Squad 3 had just pulled back into the bay when they got toned out for another accident.

This time though it was on I-90 North just before 290 and multiple trucks were toned out.

Once they marked themselves en route, dispatch came over the radio.

"Truck 81, Engine 51, Squad 3, Battalion 25, Ambulance 61, Ambulance 67, Ambulance 56. You're en route to I-90 Northbound just before 290 for a multiple vehicle pileup. Multiple injuries reported. Call placer is advising full lane blockage. Dispatch is trying to connect with Medevac for a possible LZ. Please advise if you need more personnel."

"Dispatch, Squad 3 is clear on your traffic." Kelly puts the radio down and puts on a high visibility vest. "Be careful getting out guys, it's going to be slippery."

"Will do Lieutenant." Cruz responds. "I'm glad Chloe is staying home today. I would be worried sick if I knew she had to go anywhere."

"Yeah, I'm glad Y/N decided to close the shop early last night when she saw the weather because I really do not want her to be on the road right now." Kelly agrees.

Y/N owns her own bakery. She was supposed to be open today but with the weather they got she didn't want any of her staff to make the trek in, so she closed.

"Dispatch, Battalion 25 is on scene. Approximately fifteen vehicle accident involving two semi's. Three vehicles with entrapment. I have multiple injured occupants and some walking wounded. Battalion 25 will have I-90 North command. Go ahead and start Medevac and a few more ambulances." Chief Boden's voice is unreadable, almost like he is trying to show no emotion at all.

"Clear Battalion 25, starting Medevac and three other Ambulances."

Squad 3 is the last to get on the on ramp, having to go onto the emergency lane because of all of the backed up traffic.

"Battalion 25, Squad 3. Where would you like us chief?" Kelly asks, waiting for his truck's assignments.

"When you guys get on scene, go ahead and bring your manpower to help with extrication. Engine 51 has gotten one out already."

"Clear, our ETA is about a minute and a half."

Once on scene Kelly hops out of the truck and starts walking up, but Boden intercepts him.

"I need you to stay back here with me." He says sternly.

Kelly looks at his Chief with a quick questioning glance.

"What, why?" Kelly asks and looks around.

"Lieutenant, I need you to stand down-."

Then his eyes land on it.

On her vehicle, it was compacted and torn to pieces.

"That's her car!" Kelly's voice and eyes are frantic as he tries to make his way to his fiancée.

"Lieutenant Severide! Stand down and let them help her!" Boden exclaims, trying to get Kelly to think clearly.

"T-That's her car Chief! That's my girl's car!" He tries to pull away from Boden again and this time Boden wraps his arms around Kelly.

"Dispatch from Truck 81. Just an update for Medevac. We've got a thirty-five year old female, extended extrication, collapsed lung, open bilateral broken lower extremities, open broken left arm. Possible internal bleeding and suspected brain bleed. Patient is currently not conscious but reactive to painful stimuli." Matt's radio cuts out and Kelly falls to his knees and starts sobbing.

"Kelly, listen to me. You have to believe she is going to be okay. She's a fighter. It's going to be a long road but she is strong, she won't give up until she's damn well ready to and we all know she's not ready to." Boden goes to the ground with the grief stricken Lieutenant and hugs him.

"This shouldn't have happened! She was supposed to be at home!" Kelly exclaims.

"I know." Boden pauses, "They're probably going to load her into the ambulance until the helicopter gets here. I'll let you go see her but you have to promise to let them do their job and not get too upset if she's awake because it can upset her as well."

Severide nods and Boden helps him stand. They walk together to Ambulance 61 and Boden opens the back door. Sylvie, Violet, Casey and Cruz all inside assisting in their colleagues' fiancées care.

"He wants to see her." Boden states.

"Okay. Hop in." Sylvie says with a little smile, hoping to calm Kelly a little bit. Violet hops out of the rig to go see if anybody needs any help for the time being.

Kelly gets in and Boden shuts the door to keep the heat in. Casey scoots over so Kelly can sit closer up to Y/N's head.

He sits down, takes one look at her and chokes on a sob.

"Oh my god."

Matt puts his hand on his friend's shoulder and squeezes, silently letting him know that he's there for him.

"Kelly, she was asking for you before she went unconscious. That's a good thing." Sylvie says as she re-examines Y/N's neurological status.

Kelly nods and lets out a breath he had been holding in.

"She was supposed to be at home. I don't know why she would go out in this weather. She even closed the bakery today because of how bad it is."

"Lieutenant, she said something about her nephew when we were getting her out. Elliott, I believe is what she said." Cruz states.

Kelly's mind instantly goes wild.

He knows exactly why she's in this position now.

"Do you have her phone?" He asks Sylvie.

"Yeah, it fell out of her pocket. Here." Brett fishes it out of her pocket and hands it to Kelly.

He grabs it and then grabs his fiancées hand and leans down to her level.

"I love you baby, but this has got to stop." He presses a kiss to her forehead and rubs his free hand through her hair. "You're going to be okay my love. You're going to get the best treatment and then we will get you home to rest." He presses another kiss to her temple. "Just hang in there for me okay?"

He squeezes her hand one last time and decides to get out of the rig and rush over to Boden.

"I need you to take me somewhere once you are finished up here before I head to the hospital."

§§§

Kelly stomps up the townhouse stairs, right up to the same door he's had to pound on almost a hundred times.

"Elliott! Answer the damn door!" He screams.

Boden steps out of his vehicle and leans against it, watching his Lieutenant to make sure nothing happens.

After no answer, Kelly starts incessantly pounding on the door.

"Elliott James Y/L/N! Open this damn door right now or I'm going to open it myself!"

The door swings open and Kelly's fist almost connects to the teenager's face.  Not that he'd be upset if it did.

"What do you want? I called Y/N, not her boy toy." Elliott grumbles, rubbing the high and hangover out of his eyes.

Kelly doesn't answer. He just grabs him and drags him down the stairs. Then shoves him into the backseat of his Chief's SUV.

Boden glances over to Kelly and he nods.

"Can we go to the hospital now?"

§§§

"Why am I at the hospital?" Elliott asks for the hundredth time since parking.

"You'll see." Kelly sneers as he leads him into the elevator, pressing the floor where the ICU is.

"Kelly, where is Y/N?"

"Elliott, hold on." Chief Boden says sternly.

The elevator opens and Kelly walks over to where Dr. Rhodes is standing, watching her.

"Kelly." Dr. Rhodes nods.

"Connor."

Dr. Rhodes opens the door for Kelly and turns to Chief Boden.

"If you guys need anything let me or the nurse know."

"Thank you, Rhodes." Boden replies.

Kelly stops for a second, looking into the room at her.

Y/N's in a medically induced coma, due to the brain bleed raising her intracranial pressure. Also, so she can recover from her broken bones that have been fixed during surgery and the internal bleeding from a spleen laceration.

It takes everything in him not to break down right then and there. He's trying to think positive but he knows how bad things can get, and he just can't get over the thought of losing the love of his life.

After a few seconds he motions for Elliott to come in.

Elliott takes a few hesitant steps towards Kelly, and then turns to look into the room.

Elliott's jaw drops and he takes a step back.

"W-What happened?"

"She is in this position because of you." Kelly starts, "She wasn't supposed to be out today because of the weather. But you texted her to come check you out because you thought you were having an "adverse reaction" to the heroin you had just shot up with." Kelly reads from Y/N's messages with her nephew. "She got caught in the middle of a pileup on I-90 trying to get to you because she knew that if she called 911 you would throw a fit like the child you are Elliott."

Elliott turns and glares at Kelly. "Watch who you're talking to! I can make her leave you in an instant." Elliott lunges toward Kelly and Boden steps in between the two.

"Elliott, calm down. This is not the place."

"No! Who the hell does he think he is telling me I put her in here! She didn't have to come, this is her fault!" Elliott exclaims.

"How dare you blame this on her! She's taken care of you since you were a baby because no one else would! Of course she's going to come to your rescue when you ask her to." Kelly seethes, "She's a good woman, a good person. But you're taking advantage of her and you have been for years. She wants you to get help, she wants you to be happy, healthy and safe. Can't you see what lengths she would go to to make sure you're okay?"

As Kelly continues to rant his voice gets louder.

"I'm done letting you do this to her Elliott! You can either go get help, get clean. Or you can continue to do this shit to yourself and deal with consequences yourself because she is done. She's not doing this shit anymore! No more coming to your rescue, no more supporting you financially, no more doing anything for you. You're nineteen years old man, it's time to start growing up."

"Fuck you, Kelly Severide." Elliott spits.

"Yeah, whatever." Kelly scoffs, expecting nothing less from him. "We will help you, Elliott. You just need to want help and be serious about it. Do you really want to live this way for the rest of your life?" Kelly questions, trying to get him to see his point.

After a long pause, he finally speaks up.

"No, I don't. I just don't know what to do. I've got nothing."

"Elliott, we can get you going in the right direction. The first step is to go to rehab and detox. Then we can get you set up somewhere else, away from those people you were just with." Boden speaks.

Elliott glances between the two men, then locks his eyes on Y/N. A few tears shine in his eyes and his lip trembles.  

"Okay, I'll go."

§§§

Four days after the accident Y/N's intracranial pressure finally came down for Dr. Rhodes to be willing to bring her out of the coma.

Kelly had been at work because he wanted to use his furlough for after she got out of the hospital, knowing she'd need him more then, than when she was getting 24/7 care while at Med.

"Kelly, it's Dr. Rhodes." Connor says as the phone picks up.

"Hey, what's going on? Is she okay?" Kelly rushes as he stands up from the "Squad Table".

"Yeah, she's doing great actually. I just took her off of the sedative so she can wake up. Her ICP is down and her spleen laceration has healed enough that I'm comfortable waking her up. So, she's doing great!" Connor is elated that Y/N is coming out of her coma, because he wasn't sure if she'd make it a few days ago.

"Oh thank god." Kelly releases a deep sigh, feeling weight come off of his shoulders.

Everyone on shift comes out to the apparatus floor, after hearing that Kelly received a phone call. They are all gathered around waiting to hear the news, good or bad.

"I want to be there. Let me see if I can get someone to cover me and I'll be there as soon as I can."

He hangs up the phone and smiles, looking at his Firehouse 51 family.

"Her ICP is down and her spleen laceration is healed enough that Dr. Rhodes is comfortable bringing her out of the coma. He stopped the sedatives about twenty minutes ago, so she should be waking up here soon." Kelly says with a bright smile.

"Well what are you still doing here?" Casey asks.

"Go be with your girl Severide. We've got you covered. All we ask for is an update later." Boden goes up to Kelly and cups his shoulder.

"You've got it. Thank you guys."

§§§

Kelly anxiously waits for the elevator door to open to the ICU. His drive to the hospital was quick but now that he's close to being with her the journey to her floor seems like it's taking a lifetime.

Finally the elevator comes to a stop and the door opens. He steps out and makes his way towards her room.

He passes by some of the nurses and waves at them with a quick smile to say "hello" without actually saying it.

Once he finally makes it into her room he stops at the door, seeing her sitting up and Dr. Rhodes handing her a cup of water.

"You're doing a lot better Y/N. You had us all worried sick for these past few days. Especially Kelly. In all of my years working here and encountering that man, I have not seen him like this before." Connor jokes.

"Y-Yeah. He is pretty protective of me, always has been." Y/N giggles softly.

The sound makes Kelly's heart swoon.

"That is because you think you're six foot five and three hundred something pounds, baby. I've got to make sure you don't get in too far over your head." His voice captures her attention and she instantly perks up.

"You're here?" She asks as Kelly walks in.

"Of course I'm here. There's nowhere else I would rather be." He hugs her as best as he can without hurting her and presses multiple kisses on her face.

"Okay guys, I will be back in a little while. Press your button if you need anything." Dr. Rhodes makes a quick exit, giving the engaged couple their space.

"Thank you." Y/N calls.

Then she turns to Kelly.

"I am so sorry." She starts.

"Baby don't-."

"No, please let me talk." She says, "I know I shouldn't have been out but he called me and then started texting me how he thought something was wrong and he was freaking out. I knew he'd get mad if I called 911 to check him out, so I just went myself." She stops and takes a deep breath, "I don't like those people he lives with. I've tried to get him to go somewhere else but he just won't and he won't get help Kelly. I don't think I can do this anymore! I've tried and tried. I pay for everything the kid wants or needs and I try to give him a better life than my sister ever would have given him. I'm just at the point where I have nothing left to give anymore. I mean, we're supposed to be getting married and I want to settle down and have kids and continue growing my bakery but I can't do any of that with him the way he is and it's not fair!" She cries.

Her monitor starts beeping faster and Kelly sees that her being upset has affected her heart rate.

"I know it's not fair, but listen to me." Kelly sits next to her in the bed and wraps an arm around her shoulders gently. "Boden and I talked some sense into Elliott. He's saying he's serious about getting clean and doing better. He's been in the rehab center since the day this happened."

And her heart rate goes down.

"Really?" She asks hopefully.

"Yes babe, really. I think he finally understood that what he was doing wasn't just affecting him." He pauses, "And I was thinking about something too. We have been talking about getting a house, so we can grow into it. Why don't we start looking while you're healing and when Elliott is able to be on his own he can move into our condo. It's already paid for so I think he can rent it from us at a reasonable price until he gets back on his feet. It's in a good neighborhood, there are pretty much no drugs running through there and it would be a good place for him to start out." Kelly suggests.

Y/N stares at him for a few seconds in disbelief. Kelly and Elliott had always butt heads so this is very surprising to her.

"I-I mean are you sure? I don't want you to regret it when the time comes."

"Y/N, I am sure. Elliott isn't my favorite person but he is important to you so he is important to me too. I just want what is best for the kid, even though he hasn't realized that in all of these years."

"Okay." Y/N nods with a big smile.

"Okay." Kelly presses a kiss to the side of her head and finally relaxes.

He knows it's going to be a long road, but he won't complain because his girl is still here with him, in his arms.

Babies First Christmas [Harrison Reid] 🎄

Description: Harrison and Y/N's baby boy celebrates Christmas for the first time, just like every other Bondi baby does, at the beach.

Warnings: None.

A/N: Day 12 of 12 Days of Christmas. Sorry this is so late, I changed my mind on what I wanted to write, then I forgot to actually post it. 

Y/N had given birth to their son, Ryder Alexander Reid, three months ago and today was his first Christmas. Harrison had to work from noon to pack up, so he was happy he got to spend time with his wife and his son before going in to work, but it was still hard leaving them both.

Harrison had gathered all of his stuff he'd need for work and sat it by the door before going over to Y/N who had Ryder in her arms, feeding him and watching a Christmas movie. He reached out and Ryder grabbed his finger. Harrison smiled at his baby boy before looking at his wife.

"I don't want to leave."

"I know babe, but you have to work. Hoppo will give me an earful if you don't show up." She chuckles. Harrison gives her a confused look.

"Why would he give you an earful?" He questions and moves his hand to rub Ryder's head.

"Because you don't like leaving Ry and I. You like us more than the beach. He told me the other day when I was working "I've already lost one of my best lifeguard's to the little one, I can't lose another.". It was funny because he thought he lost me. I still love that place and I still work there, I've just got to get back in shape now that my doctor has cleared me."

"Hop has known you since you were a baby, why'd he think he would lose you?" Harrison asks.

"Who knows, but if you don't leave in the next couple of minutes you're going to be late."

Harrison groans and checks the time, and of course she's right. He looks at his baby and wife again, not wanting to leave.

"I just wish I could spend the day with you guys. It's his first Christmas." He puts his head on Y/N's shoulder. She puts her hand on his head and kisses his cheek all while burping the baby.

"I'll try to bring him down there after lunch with my family. I'll bring you some food too." She negotiates.

"Ok. The boys will be glad to see Rydes." Y/N nods and hands Ryder to Harrison.

"Say bye to daddy Ryder. Give him kisses!" Ryder opens his mouth and just presses his face to Harrison's cheek. Harrison laughs and kisses Ryder's cheek.

"Bye Ryder, daddy loves you." He gives him a kiss again and turns to Y/N. "I love you too. I'll see you guys later."

He presses a quick kiss to her lips before handing her their baby and gathering his stuff to leave.

§§§

Y/N and her mother had finished Christmas lunch with the rest of the Y/L/N family before packing up Ryder and some food for Harrison and the other lifeguards on duty at Bondi.

They'd decided to walk since it was nice outside and they weren't super far away. Y/N had decided to go to the tower since she wasn't sure where her husband would be. She knocked on the back door before opening it and was greeted by Hoppo and Mouse.

"Y/N! Merry Christmas! Where's the baby?!" Hoppo pulls her into a somewhat bone crushing hug, not wanting to hurt her.

"He's just outside with my mom, I didn't want to bring him in just yet if something was going on." Hoppo let go of her and Mouse gave her a hug.

"Bring him in! We love little Ryder!" Mouse exclaims.

Y/N's mom pushes the food filled stroller in with Ryder sitting in his car seat that's latched into the stroller.

"We brought you guys some home cooked food too, so it's feels more like Christmas." Y/M/N says. Hoppo thanks her and gives her a quick hug while Mouse takes Ryder.

"Hi little man. How are you? I haven't seen you in a couple of days." Mouse baby talks to Ryder and tickles him.

"He's good, we've finally gotten to where he only wakes up once a night for a feeding and that's around the time I'd get up for work. That and he's obsessed with a baby koala stuffed animal that Harrison picked out for Christmas. When he sees it he gets super excited." Y/N chuckles.

"What about you? You feeling ok?" Hoppo asks.

"Yeah. I'm good I've just got to get back in shape now that I'm cleared."

"Take your time, don't rush and hurt yourself." Y/M/N says in a motherly tone.

"Yes mother. I know." Y/N groans.

§§§

Harrison and Jake had been called up to the tower for their lunch break and Harrison was excited.

He was starving and he wanted to see if Y/N had come with Ryder.

Jake and Harrison walked up the stairs into the tower to see Y/N sitting in a chair, feeding Ryder, Hoppo and Mouse scanning the water, Deano and KC standing with Y/M/N and talking to Y/N.

"Deano and KC are going to take the North for you two." Hoppo says.

"Harrison I'm glad Ryder looks like Y/N more than you. He's a beautiful baby." Deano says as he walks out and KC pats Harrison's shoulder as he follows.

"It's not like I disagree with that." Harrison mumbles.

Everyone laughs and Y/M/N tells the boys they brought food and to help themselves, which they do.

Harrison has Y/N stand up for a second so he can sit down and then has her sit back down on his lap.

He looks over to Ryder who's still drinking his bottle and smiles.

"Hi Rydes. Are you being good for mommy and grandma?" Ryder smiles as he continues to drink and Y/N nods.

"Yeah, he has been really good with as many people he's been around today. He just got a bit overwhelmed when my dads cousin tried to take him out of my arms."

Harrison gives her look that says he isn't happy about that and Jake chuckles because he's been seeing a lot more of that face since Y/N found out she was pregnant.

Harrison got really protective and even hated it when people would rush past Y/N and barely knock into her and now with Ryder he has a hard time trusting people he doesn't know super well with him.

"It's ok Harrison, you know Y/D/N wouldn't let either of them out of his sight when you're not around. He took care of it." Y/M/N smirked. She loved how in love Harrison is with Y/N and their baby. She never had to worry about her daughter and grandson with him around.

"Ok tell me more. What desserts did you have?"

§§§

Hoppo decided to let Harrison stay in the tower for a majority of the rest of the day, until around six when things were winding down.

Y/N and Ryder were told to go with Harrison as he patrols so he can spend more time with them and no one argued.

They sat at the north end watching the water. The beach was pretty empty, which is weird for Christmas Day but people must have actually realized the beach closes at seven.

"I'm glad you guys came down so I could spend his first Christmas with him and you." Harrison says.

"I'm glad we did. It was really nice seeing all of the guys. And seeing you and Ryder together always makes me happy. I can tell how much you guys love each other."

Harrison laughs and puts his arm across her shoulders, "I love both of you. Merry Christmas, Mrs. Reid." He presses a kiss to her lips.

"Merry Christmas Harrison." She says as she snuggles into him, with Ryder sleeping in her arms.

Jingle Bell Rock [Derek Hale] 🎄

Description: Derek brings Y/N to meet the pack at Christmas dinner but has other plans up his sleeve.

Derek opened Y/N's car door for her before helping her get out so she didn't slip. This year everyone decided to meet up at in Evergreen, Montana to celebrate the Christmas holiday and it is absolutely beautiful, and there's a fresh coat of snow.

They rented out a huge cabin that was just outside of town, so they were able to have the peacefulness of the woods, the stores, and restaurants in town.

This is the first time the pack is meeting Y/N. Derek met her at the hospital while she was working and eventually they started dating. That was over a year ago but she is just now meeting everybody due to her busy schedule. She was lucky she could get the week off.

Derek and Y/N made their way up the steps onto the porch. Derek put the code provided to him in the door and let Y/N in first.

Which might have been a bad idea because as soon as she opened the door she was met by the stares of multiple people.

"You must be Y/N?!" Lydia exclaims as she goes over to bring the woman in for a hug. "It's so nice to finally meet you. Derek and Peter have told us a lot about you."

"Good things, I hope." Y/N jokes, returning the hug to the strawberry blonde.

"I don't think there is a bad thing to say about you babe." Derek says as he sets down a bag, "Guys, this is my girlfriend Y/N. She's a Nurse Practitioner at the hospital back home, so this is her first real time off in a few years."

Everyone welcomes Y/N with open arms and of course, twenty-million questions.

Stiles wanted dirt on Derek.

Malia wanted to know about her favorite food.

Scott wanted to know about her nursing job.

Liam wanted to know if she played any sports.

And it just goes on.

§§§

Finally after a few hours and dinner Y/N and Derek were able to sneak off to their room and get settled.

"I like your friends. They're really sweet." Y/N comments as she puts some of her clothes in the drawer.

"They are. They're really nosy though." He laughs.

"It's okay, I don't mind." Y/N giggles and walks over to where he is standing in the connecting bathroom and wraps her arms around his torso. "They just want to make sure I am treating you right."

She presses a kiss to his back and Derek grips her hand. The tingling sensation going down his spine catching him off guard.

"You are most definitely treating me right." Derek turns around and brings her into his arms. "I'm glad you finally got to meet them."

"Me too." She agrees, "We should get ready for bed. I'm tired."

Derek's chest vibrates from his laughing.

"I knew you would be. Go get ready for bed. I will take care of the rest of this." He presses a kiss to her cheek before she goes out to the room to grab her pajamas and toiletry bag.

Derek leaves her to the bathroom and puts her bag in the closet.

Once he knows she is in the bathroom and busy he opens his suitcase. He pulls his clothes out and finds the little velvet box. He grabs it and places it in his nightstand.

"This is really happening."

§§§

After a week full of shopping, eating, baking, and fun activities it was finally Christmas day.

Derek had decided to take Y/N out that morning for breakfast.

He had packed the food, drinks and blankets into his truck before waking her up.

"Y/N." He whispers, rubbing his hand up and down her back.

"Hm." She hums in response, rolling into his body.

"Let's go get some breakfast before they wake up."

Y/N perks up at the mention of food. Opening her eyes and looking at Derek.

"That got your attention." He chuckles.

"Breakfast? Everything is closed Der, it's Christmas." She asks, sitting up and rubbing her eyes.

Derek nods, "I made breakfast. We're taking it to go."

"Where are we going?"

"So many questions. It's a surprise sweetheart."

Derek gets up and pulls Y/N up with him.

"Do I have to dress nice, or can I wear sweats?"

"You can wear whatever you want. You can wear your pajamas even."

Y/N shakes her head and goes to the drawers.

"Not wearing my pajamas."

Derek stifles a laugh and moves towards the bedroom door.

"I'll be waiting for you downstairs."

§§§

Derek drove Y/N out to a lake that the guys had went to for ice fishing. Its beautiful, surrounded by trees and a dock that goes out farther than normal.

They ate breakfast in the truck, since it's freezing outside, but as soon as they were done Derek suggested they walk out onto the dock.

He helped Y/N out of the truck and wrapped a heavy blanket around her.

He felt his pocket one last time before wrapping his arm around her and guiding her out to the dock.

The photographer had been hiding in the office building for the park until she saw the couple get out of the truck and go out to the dock.

She snuck out and was able to be in a somewhat concealed spot where she could see and get good pictures but wasn't seen easily.

Derek waited until Y/N was turned away from

him to get down on one knee.

"Why do you think this place looks like during the rest of the year?" She asks, turning towards him, but he's not standing up. "What-?"

Derek has the tiny velvet box in one hand and his other is reaching out for hers.

Y/N places her shaky hand in his and takes a deep breath.

"I know that our lives are crazy and things don't go as planned, but I truly believe our souls were made for loving each other. I was going to do this after the holidays but I couldn't wait any longer. Y/N Y/L/N, will you marry me?"

Y/N can't get any words out because she is afraid her voice might fail her, so she nods and throws herself into Derek's arms.

"Is that a yes?!"

Y/N wipes her tears and laughs, "Yes!"

Derek pulls her in for a blazing kiss.

He couldn't believe she is actually going to be his wife.

He takes the ring out of the box and slides it into her finger.

"Do you like it?" He whispers.

Y/N nods and presses a kiss to his cheek, "It's beautiful Derek."

§§§

Finally, the couple got back the cabin.

They were immediately met by the group at the door and requests to see the ring.

"You did so good Derek!"

"It's beautiful!"

"Congratulations guys!"

Peter stepped through the crowd and brought his nephew in for a hug.

"Congratulations you two." He releases Derek and pulls Y/N in, "So can I call you Mrs. Hale now?"

Y/N laughs and nods.

"Sure Peter."

Derek smiles at the group and watches as they interact together.

"Okay guys, time to get Christmas dinner going."

"C'mon Sourwolf. We're celebrating!"

First Glimpse Of You [Jay Halstead]⚠️

Description: Jay and Y/N go through a short rough patch while working a tough case and Y/N gets told life changing news.

Warnings: Maybe cussing? Discussing case details.

Jay and Y/N had been dating for two years. They met through the Intelligence Unit. Y/N was already a detective chosen by Voight to be in his Unit and then he brought Jay in. The two immediately hit it off and their relationship developed easily after that.

Intelligence was working a tough case. For the past two weeks they were trying to solve the murder of a twelve year old girl. She was taken from the school playground while waiting for her father to come pick her up.

The girls father owns a luxury car dealership and he's a known drug user. He admitted he was in debt to a dealer and that he got a letter in the mail stating that if he didn't pay he'd lose something valuable to him. He never thought they'd kill his daughter.

Y/N and Erin took this case hard. They were always trying to identify and track down the dealer, but they weren't having any luck.

Jay was getting tired of his girlfriend not being home and not taking care of herself. His frustrations boiled over the night before the units five day weekend was supposed to start.

"Nice of you to finally come home." Jay says as Y/N shuts the front door behind her and locks it. The smile on her face fades and she slouches.

"What is that supposed to mean?" She asks.

"This is the first time in a couple of weeks you've been home before one in the morning. What'd Voight do, lock you and Lindsay out?" He asks angrily. Y/N scoffs and kicks her shoes off.

"No, actually. I arrested the bastard that murdered that little girl an hour ago." She says as she goes upstairs and slams their bedroom door.

Jay sighs and leans his head back on the couch.

His back is going to hurt tomorrow from sleeping on the couch.

§§§

When Y/N woke up the next morning Jay was gone. He and the guys had decided to go fishing on Lake Michigan, so he would be gone almost all day. Y/N decided to clean the house, get ready and then she and Erin would go shopping.

She picked everything up, started laundry, put stuff away, did the dishes, swept and mopped the floors. The house was a mess. Normally Jay and Y/N split the chores, but they both have neglected their home lately.

After finishing, Y/N sat down for a second. A pain ripped through her left side and it nearly took her breath away. She held her side and took deep breaths until the pain subsided, deciding it was a pulled muscle and that she should just go take a shower and get ready.

While getting ready she had a few more pains, but they were never as bad as the first one.

§§§

Y/N and Erin had decided to get breakfast and coffee and then went to the mall. They went to the stores outside of the mall and they were walking on the sidewalk after leaving a boutique when Y/N stopped and grabbed her side.

"Hey, are you okay?" Erin asks and puts a hand on her shoulder.

"I think so. I’ve been having side pain today." She finishes her sentence and then looks up at Erin before her eyes unfocus.

"Y/N?" Erin waves her hand in front of her eyes and then suddenly they roll and she’s collapsing. "Y/N?!"

§§§

Y/N woke up in the hospital to see Will and Maggie in the room talking with Erin.

"Why am I here?" She asks sitting up.

Will walks over to her and puts his hand on her back. "You passed out while you were out with Erin today. You told her you’d had side pain all day and then you just collapsed." He tells her. "You’re very dehydrated and you’re pregnant. About two months along, and I’m assuming you didn’t know."

Y/N stares at him in disbelief before glancing over at Maggie and Erin for confirmation.

"Oh you’re not kidding are you?"

"No, honey. With what Erin told us you guys have been doing here lately we aren’t surprised you didn’t know, and we’re not surprised you’re having side pain." Maggie says.

"Well." Y/N sighs. "Did anyone call Jay?"

"No, we didn’t. We figured it would be better for you to." Will says.

"Okay." She nods. "Can I have pictures of my baby?"

"Sure thing, sweetheart. I’ll go get the technician." Maggie says with a smile.

Maggie leaves the room and then Erin excuses herself to take a phone call, so Will And Y/N are left.

"Listen, I know Jay has been grouchy about you throwing yourself into that case and I know what happened last night, but don’t freak out. He will be ecstatic. He loves you a lot. I’ve never seen him this way with anyone, and he will love this baby so much." Will says, sensing her nervousness.

"Thank you, Will. I know he loves me and I know I shouldn’t have got so into my head about this case, but this is our job and that little girls mom broke my heart. She never deserved that. Her dad was dumb, and made mistakes, she never should have had to pay for his mistakes and my heart told me I needed to find the bastard that killed her, and guess what? I did."

"I’m proud of you." Will says and gives Y/N a hug. "I’ll be back in a little bit to discharge you."

He leaves the room and Y/N glances at her stomach. She places her hand on it and smiles.

§§§

Jay walked into the house and saw that it was clean and all of the lights were off except the night lights on the stairs, so he took his shoes off and made his way up. It was late, so he expected Y/N to be sleeping already, which she was. He softly closed their bedroom door and smiled at her peaceful form before grabbing a pair of sweatpants and underwear to change into after his shower.

After finishing his shower, Jay walked back into the bedroom and put his phone on the charger and his gun in the nightstand. He pulled back the covers and climbed in behind Y/N and wrapped his arm around her and kissed her cheek.

She stirred awake and smiled. "How was your day?" She asks.

"Good. I caught some trout, salmon and a largemouth bass." He replies. "How was your day?"

"Good. I cleaned, went out with Erin." She says playing with his fingers.

"I’m sorry about last night. I shouldn’t have been upset with you. I know you were just doing your job, but I missed you and you were neglecting your own needs. I was worried."

"It’s okay. I don’t blame you and I know I’m going to have to take care of myself now." She sighs.

"Did something happen when I was gone?" Jay asks.

"I passed out when I was with Erin and she took me to the hospital. I was dehydrated and having pretty bad side pain that I chalked up to be a pulled muscle."

"Babe, why didn’t you call me? You know I would’ve dropped everything if I knew."

"I know, but I’m fine. They just gave me fluids." Jay chuckles and rolls his eyes at her stubbornness.

"So, what was the side pain?"

"Abdominal stretching pain is what your brother said. It’s caused by pregnancy mostly." She says nonchalantly, waiting for him to pick it up on his own.

"Oh, well I’m glad it wasn’t anything serious." He stops for a few seconds before sitting up and pulling her to face him. "Wait, pregnancy? Are you pregnant?!" He exclaims.

"Yes! I’m two months along and the baby is very healthy and big, which is why I have abdominal stretching pain already because of you and your genes that you’ve passed to our child." She smiles.

Jay pulls her into a hug and kisses anywhere her can reach while still holding her against him.

"Oh my god! We’re having a baby." He pulls away and smiles at her before pulling her in for a proper kiss.

Once they pull away Y/N reaches over to her nightstand and pulls a few ultrasound pictures off of it.

"I have pictures and we will be getting more soon."

"Let me see." Jay rushes.

He takes the pictures and looks at the baby. His baby, Y/N's baby, their baby. He notices he can already tell the baby has his nose and tears start streaming down his face.

"Don’t cry. You’re going to make me cry." Y/N whines, wiping under her eyes.

Jay pulls her into him again and kisses her.

Once he pulls away he wipes her tears and kisses her cheek.

"I love you so much. This is all I’ve ever wanted and now I get to experience this with you."

"I love you Jay Halstead."

Forty-Eight Hours [Evan ‘Buck’ Buckley]🎄

Description: Buck tries to tell Y/N about his feelings before her date in 48 hours.

Warnings: Mentions of a house fire.

"Buck, where is the extra wrapping paper?" Y/N asks as she walks over to him from their storage closet.

"Uh-. Check in Bobby's office." He suggests. Y/N nods and heads upstairs.

Chimney and Eddie, who are standing on the other side of the table share a glance.

"So, when are you going to ask Y/N out?" Chimney asks.

Buck rolls his eyes at his friends.

"Really guys?"

"Evan, come on. You need to get over Abby. Y/N is a good girl, and she's already good for you. Just open yourself up."

"I just don't want to mess up. I like being friends with Y/N and I don't want her to leave." Buck says as he rips some tape off of the roll.

"Y/N isn't leaving Buck. She just bought a house, she's staying." Eddie points out.

Buck yet again rolls his eyes. They're right and he knows it.

Hen walks into the bays with more gifts under her arms.

"Wow, who donated those?" Buck asks, changing the subject.

Now it's Eddie and Chimney's turn to roll their eyes.

"Oh, they're actually from Y/N. She adopted a family this year and wanted to wrap the gifts while she was at work since they need to be dropped off right after shift." Hen explains, "There's more in her car if you guys want to help bring them in!"

Buck smiles and shakes his head.

"Yeah, it's unlocked right?"

Hen nods and continues towards the empty table.

The guys all walk out to Y/N's car.

"I love this kid, she's an angel in human form." Chimney says.

"Yeah she's definitely got a heart of gold." Eddie adds.

"I know what you guys are doing." Buck huffs.

"Yeah? Is it working?" Eddie asks as he opens the passenger door. He pauses for a second before a smile breaks out on his face. "Guys, look at that." He points to her dash, right under the speedometer.

It's a picture of Bobby, Eddie, Hen, Chimney, Buck, Christopher and Y/N last summer sitting on the front of the truck.

And another one of Buck and Y/N at fire prevention day.

"She has a picture of us in her car?" Buck asks.

"Seems so." Chimney claps his shoulder and rounds the back of her car.

"Evan, seriously. You need to ask her out. And I wasn't going to say anything but she's got a date the night after shift ends, so you've got forty-eight hours to find your balls and do what you want to do." Eddie says bluntly before going to help Chimney, leaving Buck to his thoughts.

"Oh shit."

§§§

Buck had been trying to talk to Y/N, but of course they've had back to back calls and there wasn't any time.

Y/N and Hen had just got back from a medical assist for a trauma patient, and Buck was waiting for them.

"Hey guys, how'd that call go?" He asks as the girls get out of the ambulance.

"It went okay, the guys probably won't make it due to his injuries though." Y/N says as she goes to the Medical Storage cabinet.

"That's too bad." Buck replies walking over to her, "Y/N, I wanted to talk to you about something-."

"All Units, Structure Fire." The PA system from dispatch cut Buck off.

"Shit!" Y/N grabs everything she needs and throws it in the back of the ambulance. "We'll talk later Buck."

Buck sighs and jogs over to the Engine.

Eddie comes up beside him and pats him on the back.

"You just need a Christmas miracle Buck. You'll talk to her." He encourages.

"Not at this rate, I won't."

"You've just got to believe." Eddie jokes.

"I can't believe I'm going to miss my chance because I was too stupid to say anything before." Buck complains as he takes his seat in the truck.

"Miss your chance at what?" Bobby asks.

Buck groans and puts his head in his hands.

"Y/N has a date after shift, in now forty hours and Buck is realizing he should've said something to her about his feelings before. He's trying to tell her before her date but they've had back to back calls." Chimney explains as he puts on his gloves.

"Buck, you should've told her way before now!" Bobby scolds.

"I know, thanks!" Buck replies sarcastically.

"Talk to her as soon as this is over with. You two are good for each other and I don't want you guys to miss the opportunity." Bobby says.

All Buck can do is shake his head and hope that he's not too late.

§§§

It was a horrible fire. The family lost everything and Y/N was so upset.

"I hate this universe. That is so unfair." She seethes.

Buck had walked over to the ambulance to talk to her but he immediately knew now wasn't a good time.

"Hey guys," He says to catch Hen and Y/N's attention, "You two okay?"

Y/N and Hen both have a frown on their faces, but nod their heads.

"This is just so unfair that this happens. I feel horrible for them." Y/N whispers, "I just wish there was something I could do to help, even just a little bit."

Buck can visibly see how upset Y/N is. Her voice is a tad scratchy and she's got tears in her eyes.

He's not surprised though, as she is one of the most kindest, caring and strongest people he knows. Though, all he wants to do is wrap her in a hug.

"It's Christmas, this shouldn't be happening." Y/N finishes before slamming the back door to the ambulance and going to get in the front seat.

Buck and Hen share a look.

"Maybe there is something we can do."

§§§

Y/N had been sitting in her bunk with her tablet since they got back from the call. She hasn't said anything or gotten up.

Her adopted family had been watching her through the glass for a while before she perked up and finally moved from her bed to the door.

At first she hadn't noticed them, causing her to jump when she walked through the door, but she got distracted she saw Hen standing there.

"Oh good, you're already here. I want to take a ride to Walmart in a few hours, okay?" Y/N doesn't give her time to finish before going back into her bunk.

The group just stands there, shocked by that interaction.

"What the hell is she getting up to in there?" Chimney asks, before walking to the common area.

"Should we tell her or just surprise her?" Hen asks Buck.

"I think we should surprise her."

§§§

Y/N had dragged Hen with her to pickup a Walmart order and bring it back to the house. Her mood had brightened and she wasn't as upset anymore.

Bobby walks into the common area and stops when he sees bags full of stuff like clothes, hygiene and household essentials and even some fun things like toys and entertainment items.

"I thought we were done wrapping presents for the toy drive?" He asks, breaking his silence.

Y/N looks up and shrugs.

"This isn't for the toy drive."

"So, what is it for?"

"It's for the family from our structure fire today." She mumbles.

Bobby nods and comes closer to the table and picks up a toy.

"Would you like some help?"

Y/N smiles and nods, "Yeah Captain, I'd like that."

So, they wrapped all of the presents and placed everything else in bags for the family to use while everyone else in the house slept.

By four in the morning Buck was just itching to tell Y/N what he did, but first he needed some coffee, so he headed to the kitchen.

But Buck wasn't expecting to find his Captain and Y/N passed out on the couches in the living area and tons of wrapped boxes and bags full of items scattered around.

He stops for a second before going over to Bobby and tapping his shoulder.

"Hey Cap?"

"Yeah?" Bobby asks, still asleep.

"What happened in here?"

That makes Bobby shoot up and look around.

Seeing that everything was fine and it was just Buck be laid back down.

"Y/N got all of this stuff for that family. So, I helped her get it ready last night." He pauses to yawn, and looks at Y/N. "Wake her up and make her go lay down in her bed. Her neck is going to be hurting." He says before getting up to go start a pot of coffee.

Buck goes over to Y/N and places his hand on her arm gently.

"Y/N, you need to go sleep in a bed. Not on the couch with your neck all twisted." Buck whispers.

Y/N opens one eye before shaking her head no.

"I'm too tired to move." She complains.

"Okay, so I will carry you. You don't need to be sleeping out on the couch." He argues.

Y/N rolls her eyes before sitting up.

"Okay." She whispers.

Buck places one arm around her and the other under her knees before lifting her up, into his arms. Once he's sure he's got a good grip on her he starts walking down the hall.

The journey is silent until she's being placed on her bed.

"I wish that didn't happen to them Buck. They are such good people."

Buck nods in agreement before stopping and staring at Y/N for a few seconds.

"Y/N?"

"Yeah Evan?"

"I am in love with you."

"I'm in love with you too."

Evan's heart stops for a second. He can't believe she said that.

He shakes his head, she's probably not even awake, so he shouldn't take it seriously.

He squeezes her hand tightly before standing up and walking out of the room.

§§§

Buck couldn't stop thinking about his encounter with Y/N earlier. His coffee had gotten cold because he hasn't touched it.

Buck is brought out of his head by Y/N walking into the living area.

"Good morning Buck!" She says.

"Good morning Y/N."

She walks past him and into the kitchen to grab one of her yogurts. She stops abruptly once she can see out the window.

"What is this?" She asks.

Buck stands up and walks over to her.

Outside there is a bunch of people, coming to donate food, household supplies, old clothes, anything you can think of really.

"This is for the Vasquez family. We set this up after we were done." He starts, "I got them set up at a house until they can get a new one or rebuild their house. They will be here in a few minutes actually."

"Are you serious?" She whispers.

"Yeah. You inspired this." Buck says, "You have a heart of gold and your Christmas spirit is unmatched. It's nice, especially in this line of work."

Y/N smiles and drops her eyes to the ground, scared to meet his eyes when she says what she's going to.

"I really am in love with you, Evan Buckley. I know I was half asleep when I said it this morning, but I really do love you."

Buck lifts Y/N's chin up and leans in.

"That's a good thing, because I'm in love with you too."

He leans in and presses a soft kiss to her lips.

They pull away and Buck sighs, "What about your date after shift?"

"What date after shift?"

When Push Comes To Shove [Ryan Yerbury] ⚠

Description: Y/N and Ryan are secretly dating, when she gets assaulted at work and caught in a bad spot the truth comes out.

Warnings: Physical and Verbal Assault.

Y/N and Ryan had been dating for a while, almost a year. They met on their first day of being trainees at Bondi Beach. Ryan thought she was beautiful right away and wanted to get to know her, but Y/N was a little more difficult. It took her a few months to warm up to him.

After their first date Ryan asked her to be his girlfriend and they've been together ever since.

The only thing is, no one knows.

They weren't sure if they'd get fired for being in a relationship with a coworker or if they'd have to break up, so they just didn't say anything and tried not to lead the others on to think they were together.

Y/N had just finished changing when she walked out of the women's room and was pulled around a corner.

She squealed a bit but when she realized it was her boyfriend she quieted down and slapped his arm.

"You can't do that! You gave me a heart attack." She whisper yells.

Ryan chuckles and hugs her tight. "I just wanted to see you real quick before we got to work. I missed you."

"I missed you too." She replies, before pressing a kiss to his lips.

"I can't wait for tonight. It's nice to hang out with you and the boys and not be at work." He mumbles into the kiss.

"Well I think after giving me a heart attack you owe me a drink." She smiles.

"I'll get you whatever you want sweetheart." He pulls her in for a kiss again, but this time they are interrupted.

"Y/N?! Ryan?!" Maxi yells as he walks around the locker rooms.

The two jump apart and start walking towards the voice. Maxi peeks up when he sees his cousin and his friend.

"Hey, there you guys are! You two are on South End." Maxi says as they walk to the tower.

"Okay, thanks Max!" Y/N says as she stops in the tower to put her stuff away and grab what they would need.

Maxi raises his eyebrow at Ryan and Ryan just walks away, ignoring his big cousin.

§§§

Y/N and Ryan were down by Backpackers Rip around four when a group of drunk, heated up men started acting up.

They kept going into the water, and both lifeguards had told them multiple times not to go out, and they'd been keeping an eye on the group, but when an injury pulled their attention, they took the opportunity.

A few of the men had gotten stuck in the rip and Maxi, Harrison and Jesse who had all come down for the injury all helped Ryan get them back in while Y/N was left on the sand to keep the rest out.

The biggest of the group walks towards the water and Y/N steps in his way.

"Sir. I can't let you in the water. You're intoxicated and you could drown." She says in a calm voice, trying to reason with the man.

"If I want to go swimming. I'm going to."

"You don't understand. I cannot let you in the water. You could drown and die and I will get in trouble." She explains.

"I don't give a shit about what happens to you. Like I said if I want to go in the water, that's on me." He gets in her face and she takes a step back.

"Sir, I'm just trying to keep you safe. There is no reason for you to get in my face." She says.

"Listen here you little bitch! Maybe a man should get in your face! Little bitches like yourself don't listen so you have to learn. You're a little girl. I can do whatever the fuck I want." He continues to get closer, but she doesn't move an inch. She stands her ground.

"If you're going to continue to act this way I will have you thrown off the beach." She retaliates.

"I'll fucking kill you, you fucking bitch!" The man yells and grabs her arm throwing her into the rhino.

Before he can do anything else the man is already being pulled off of her by Maxi and Jesse while Harrison calls for police and Ryan grabs his girlfriend.

"Are you okay?!" Ryan asks as he pulls her into him.

"I think so." Y/N says and wraps her opposite hand around where the man grabbed her. It was throbbing, and it felt like she had a cut on her leg, probably from landing in the rhino.

"Let me see." Ryan demands. He pulls her arm to where he can see it and his heart drops when he sees the hand bruised into her flesh already. "Y/N." He sighs.

"I swear I'm fine. It's just a bruise."

Hoppo shows up the same time the cops do and after a ton of questioning, Y/N insisting she's fine and refusing to press charges, the man is taken to the jail for public intoxication and for being a public nuisance.

Y/N is told to go home for the rest of the day and rest until later that night, she tried to argue, but ultimately gave up, so she got her stuff and said goodbye before going home.

§§§

Later that night after the beach closed the lifeguards made there way to the local bar and grill where they were all meeting to have dinner and drinks together. The lifeguards that weren't already at the beach were coming separately so Ryan had to wait to see Y/N.

He had been worried the rest of the day. He just had a bad feeling about something, but he wasn't sure why yet.

After sitting down he texted Y/N letting her know where they were at. She took a few minutes to text back.

Y/N Y/L/N

okay i'll be there in a minute.

Ryan knew Y/N wouldn't text and drive so she must've decided to walk. He checks her location and sees that it's moving a tiny bit every few seconds. He closes his phone and orders his drink.

Ten minutes had passed and Ryan was confused. Y/am said she'd be there in a minute and her location said that as well, so what was the hold up?

He subtly grabs his phone and opens up her contact. A few of the other guys had shown up and Jake, one of Y/N's best friends was also wondering where she was.

"She said she was a minute away a while ago." Ryan says.

"Maybe a few of us should go looking for her. She's never been here before, she could've gotten turned around." Jake replies getting up from his seat and grabbing his phone. Ryan, Maxi, Jesse and Glick get up as well.

They head out the door and start walking towards where her location last showed. They get a street away before they start hearing a man yelling.

"You got him put in jail! He didn't do anything wrong!" The voice yells.

"For the last time, I didn't press charges! He got arrested for being drunk and causing problems in public! Just like you assholes are right now!" Y/N exclaims.

She'd been cornered by the mans drunk friends. They were pissed and ready to hurt her. Like earlier, she stood her ground and tried explaining but there is no getting through to people like them.

The boys turned the corner and landed their eyes on their friend. She wasn't worried, like normal, but she was definitely outnumbered until now.

"Hey! Get the hell away from her now or we are going to have problems." Jake yells as he runs towards her.

Jake loved that girl like she was his baby sister. That is basically what she is. She grew up with him.

He gets between the men and Y/N and stares them down.

"What are you going to do about it?" Another man asks. "The little bitch needs her karma."

That pissed Ryan off. He didn't even think before his first went flying into the mans nose, causing a loud crunch and blood to start pouring out of the now broken nose. He didn't cool off after that, he looked at the rest of the men and glared. His eyes had gotten darker, he was seriously pissed.

"Leave my girlfriend alone or I'll kick all of your asses." He threatens. "Your friend assaulted her, he's a drunk piece of shit who hurt a woman. Do you guys want to be the same?!" He exclaims.

The men all seemed to take that to heart.

"We didn't know he hurt you." A man says.

Ryan walked up to Y/N and pulled her arm up for them to see.

"That's his hand print!" Ryan yells. He turns her around and shows them the large cut on her leg. "That's because he threw her." He turns her back around and pulls her into his chest. "Now are we going to have anymore problems or are you going to walk away and leave her alone?"

"I'm so sorry." The man Ryan had punched in the nose says and they all dissipate.

Glick and Maxi start clapping and Jesse eventually joins.

"Finally manned up and asked her out?" Maxi asks.

"Yeah. A while ago." Ryan smiles and presses a kiss to Y/N's head as she rests it against his chest with her eyes closed.

"We always knew you had a massive crush on her." Glick says.

"Wait! You're dating?!" Jake exclaims.

Y/N opens her eyes and looks at Jake.

"Yeah, almost a year." She says. Jake puts his hand to his chest, so she cuts him off before he can start. "We didn't tell anyone because we don't know if it's allowed." She clarifies.

"Y/N, Hoppo doesn't care as long as it doesn't get brought into work." Jesse chuckles.

"Well now that you guys know." Ryan trails off.

"Let's go back to the restaurant."

They all start walking and Ryan holds Y/N's hand.

"Are you okay? Are you up to go still? We can cancel." He says, giving her a worried glance.

"Babe, I'm fine. Like I was earlier. It's going to take a lot more than drunk, pissy men to tear me down." She assures him.

"Are you sure?" Ryan repeats.

"Yes." She laughs. "I just need a drink through."

"Whatever you want sweetheart."
