Then I met you- Part 2

Summery: your life has never been easy and then you met him

Pairing: Kelly Severide x Reader / Matt Casey & Reader

Matt was once again trying to convince you to go to Molly with him. You hadn’t spent much time with the guys after work, and people were starting to wonder why.

It was just so hard to pretend not to know Matt at work and you didn’t want to do the same in your free time.

“I’m just saying, it’s been a month. Everyone can see you are made for the job, why can’t we just tell the truth? So you can come to Molly with me and everyone is happy”- he said

“I just need more time. I don’t want to lie either Matt, but every time it doesn’t go well. Remember Gabby?”- you knew it was a touchy subject but you wanted to bring the point home.

“She liked you”- you couldn’t convince him otherwise, but you knew she didn’t.

“Sure”- you rolled your eyes- “listen I’m gonna go and have a shower. You don’t have to stay at home with me Matt, please go to Molly. Spend some time with your friends.”

“They’re your friends too”

You wanted it to be true but you knew people at 51 hadn’t a clear idea of you yet. The jury was still out and you knew it was mostly your own fault. You needed time to open up, to feel comfortable with new people and not everyone liked to wait.

“No they are not Matt”

“They could be”- he wanted you to become part of the family so much.

“Go to Molly and have fun”- you screamed while going to the bathroom to start your much needed shower

You got out of the shower, put a towel on and went out of the bathroom.

You noticed the light of the kitchen was still on, Matt had decided to stay in after all. That guy... always sacrificing himself for others, it was clear he wanted to go to Molly but he didn’t want to leave you alone.

You had never been lucky but you sure lucked out with Matt.

“Hey Matt you didn’t have to stay”- you said while entering the kitchen, still in your towel- “I told you, I’m gonna be f_”- you stopped suddenly.

Sure Matt was in the kitchen but he wasn’t alone, Sylvie was there with him and evidently she didn’t know you were there. Of course she didn’t, why would she.

“Sylvie I...”- she was so nice and you could see the sadness in her eyes and you knew it was your fault.

‘You destroy everything you touch. He’s gonna leave you, why wouldn’t he.’

You could hear your ex’s voice in your head and you were so taken by your thoughts you almost didn’t notice Sylvie leaving

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bother you guys” she said while practically flying the house

“Wait” said Matt but she was already gone.

You were in silent for a while waiting for Matt to get mad at you but he didn’t... of course he didn’t

“I’m so sorry Matt. I didn’t know she was here”

“Hey you didn’t do anything wrong ok? I invited her in without warning you”- he was smiling but you knew you had to fix it.

“I’ll talk to her, I’ll explain everything ok?”- you’ll fix it... for him

“I thought you weren’t ready”- he didn’t understand why you didn’t want people to know. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to, he just couldn’t. It had never been him receiving the ‘look’ once knowing about you, about your past. He was the good guy in the story, you on the other hand...

“You were right, I have to do this sooner or later, better be sooner right?”- and if everything went to shit at least you hadn’t been there too long to form proper bonds.

He hugged you because he knew you so well; he knew telling people the truth meant talking, at least in part, about your past. And you hated your past, but you had to... for Matt

The next day at work talking to Sylvie proved to be more difficult than you thought.

Between the calls (during which it wasn’t professional to talk) and her clear avoidance was not happening.

So once you were back from another call you blocked her before she could leave

“We need to talk”- you said blocking her path- “please”

Matt had always said your puppy eyes were dangerous and you had never believed him, but you knew you had to try with everything you got, so you gave her your puppy eyes.

“There is nothing to talk about”

“Yes there is. Listen it’s not what you think. I swear, I...”- she stopped you before you could continue

“You don’t have to explain me anything. It’s not my business”- she was calm but you knew better. She was hurt, if because she liked Matt or because you didn’t open up to her, you didn’t know. But the hurt in her voice was very much clear.

“Sylvie Matt and I...”

“I don’t care if you sleep with Matt”- she didn’t scream but she was loud and you both hadn’t noticed the crowd forming

“You slept with Y/N”- someone behind you said

You turned over and basically all 51 was there, you looked at Sylvie again and you could see she was sorry. She hadn’t noticed them either

You could tell it had been Severide who had talked.

“I thought you had a thing for...” - Kelly started again but stopped before saying too much, but he was looking at Brett so it didn’t take a genius to fill the gap

“We didn’t sleep together”- Matt said while looking between Kelly and Brett

“It’s not my business but don’t lie straight to my face at least. She was half naked in your house Matt”- well the cat was out of the bag. And everyone was looking at you

You had to say something

“I live there too”- way to go Y/n, you told yourself.

“You guys live together?”- Herman said- “how long have you been together?”

“Oh my god we’re not together”- you tried again. When you promised Matt to fix it you didn’t think you would have to talk in front of all the guys.

“So you live together, sleep together but are not a couple”- Stella summed up

“I’M HIS SISTER”- you screamed and yup... everyone was looking at you like you were crazy.

You turned around and went to the bathroom ready to throw up. Damn it you hated confrontations and now, you didn’t have to explain everything only to Sylvie, but to everyone at 51.

Damn it.

It’s been so long, I know and I’m so sorry. Sadly I can’t promise a schedule but I’m gonna try to post more frequently. Don’t give up on me please.
