Fandom: One Chicago
Pairing: Kelly Severide x Valentina Pierce (OC)

Previous Chapter
•••
The night before, clothing pieces were flying left and right in Valentina's apartment. Her and Carver barely got a few drinks in when they decided to cut the night out short...and truth be told Valentina knew this was what he meant by "drinks not dinner".
She was also no stranger to such practices, but it was only once these antics landed her in a relationship and it was the one with Kelly, which lasted for a few good years and slightly changed the trajectory of her entire life.
The morning after, Valentina slid out of the warm bedsheets and tip toed out of the room as quite as she could. Walking into the living room, clothes were scattered all over the floor and a smirk appeared on her face as memories from the night before came in flooding her mind. She had a good time...hell even a great time, but she knew she was walking on a thin line and things could go south very easily...which she obviously didn't want to since she had just returned and finally got her life together. But for real...out of all the men in Chicago, of course she had to pick the one working with her and with her ex in the same firehouse.
As all these things were going through her mind, she got dressed and got herself ready for shift. Making her way to the kitchen and fixing herself a cup of coffee she was still deep in her thoughts when she heard footsteps approaching her...and it was no other than Carver, half dressed, having the same cheeky smirk on his face like she did minutes ago. "How nice of you to also make me a cup of coffee...", the sarcasm in his voice was loud and clear as he took the cup out of Valentina's hands and sipped out of her hot beverage. It took everything in her to not push him against a wall again and he probably noticed that, so he was closing the gap between them to the point she could feel his breath. "I...had a really, really great time...but this has to stay between us." Raising her head to his level, she managed to say all that while keeping eye contact and a serious face. Nodding in agreement, Carver took one step closer to her if that was even possible. "Tell me one thing...who's the firefighter that ruined it for me?" The question took her by surprise...slightly, but she knew what game he was playing and she wasn't one to back off. "You wouldn't want to know....and you should get going or you'll be late for shift." "Fair enough...I'll see you later then!" Carver said and pecked her cheek quickly before he left.
//
"I thought I'd be seeing you at Molly's?" Brett said as she walked into the locker room and saw Valentina sitting on the bench while tying her shoelaces. "Yeah we all did. You haven't been there since you came back." Ritter pitched in immediately after. "Yeah...ugh, something came up and I had to call it a night very quick. But I will come next time...I promise." She was a horrible liar and she knew it, but everybody else just had to be happy with that answer for now. "Chief wants us in the briefing room in 5." Cruz appeared through the door and announced.
"I'm going to the bathroom real quick and I'll meet you there." Val told Sylvie before she disappeared out of the door. She just wanted to make sure she didn't look hungover or overly tired so she splashed some cold water on her face. As her eyes were still closed she heard the door behind her open and then immediately close. "Good Morning!" Kelly's voice filled the room as they were now looking at each other through the mirror. "Morning!"
"You seemed happy when you came in this morning." He continued as he leaned against the sink crossing his arms. "Is that such a strange thing for you? To see me happy?" Why was she giving him an attitude at 8 am...she never enjoyed speaking to him like this let alone hurt him in any way. "Is this how it's going to be between us?" He asked and Valentina could feel his eyes piercing through her as she initially avoided looking at him, but she turned around and took a deep breath in, that could easily come off as annoyed. In reality she just didn'twant to melt so easily into his blue eyes...because those used to be her weakness. "Like what Kelly?"
"Like you hating me." She was almost offended by those words, because in what world would she be able to hate him? Not in this one for sure. "I don't hate you Kelly...I don't have it in me to hate you, but I am indifferent to you, because what else am I supposed to do?" She thought about this moment...about the moment where they can finally talk, get it all out and moved on, but despite all the scenarios she made up in her head she was still not ready. "You hate me because I moved on! You just left and I was supposed to guess that you will come back? I was supposed to wait?" Frustration could be heard in his words as his voice grew louder.
"You moved on with the person you assured me so many times you had nothing to do with...and I believed you. You married that person...you didn't just move on, you made a lifetime commitment to her." It was all coming out now and there was no way back. "We were together what? 6, 7 years and we never once discussed marriage because I knew you weren't that kind of guy...and then I'm gone not even 3 years and I come back...and the one person I thought I knew so well did a complete 180°." There were a lot of underlying emotions, frustrations and feelings between the two and this conversation was bringing them all out. "Exactly Val! After 7 years you just got up and left...with an excuse of an explanation I had to deal with tha-"
"You two! This is not the place to be having this conversation...I can hear you from down the hall." Hermann appeared through the door, interrupting their screaming match. The room fell into silence and Valentina felt her breath get rapid so she quickly made her way out. Arriving into the briefing room she realized she was late...really late and Boden did not look happy. A few minutes later after the meeting was done the chief turned to look towards her. "And since Pierce and Carver were late, they have the honor of cleaning Ambo and Truck inside out."
'Of course he was late too.' She thought to herself as she looked to her right seeing the man she woke up next to earlier today. Getting the cleaning supplies she felt his presence behind her. "You know why I'm late...why are you late?" He asked and pretty much cornered her into the supply closet. "Figured I find a way to get stuck with you without making it obvious." He loved her attitude and she loved the tension that was building between them naturally everytime they were in each other's presence. "Now will you let me go clean the Ambo or are you going to push me into the wall?" If they had a choice the answer would be clear, but they didn't so he moved to the side for her.
//
"You're an awfully punctual person, what happened earlier? You know Boden hates when we're late." Brett asked as she watched her partner scrub every inch of the Ambo. "If I tell you, you can't make any faces, you can't judge me nor will you speak about this to anyone..." Valentina said stopping from whatever she was doing and saw Brett nodding in agreement. "I slept with Carver." She barely got the words before Sylvie gasped dramatically. "Sorry you can continue..." "And then I ran into Kelly in the bathroom this morning and...it got ugly to say the least." As she was saying all this out loud she realized how foolish the whole situation sounded...the situation or her? "My...very humble opinion? One or the other. Don't dig a deeper grave for yourself than you already have. I can't tell you to fight for Severide because that's a married man right there, but I also know what the two of you had in the past...or just move on. Your new friend seems to be helping you with that." Sometimes she hated how painfully honest Sylvie was with her, but who else was going to knock some sense into her if not her very own best friend. "Come on, I'll help you finish up...you already look like you're struggling." Brett pitched in making her partner let out a relieved sigh.
As Valentina wanted to continue her work she couldn't help but hear a pretty serious conversation going down a few feet away from her. "House fire in Pilsen going wrong? Really?" Stella's voice could be heard asking and a frown appeared on Valentina's face not realizing who was on the other end of the conversation. "I don't appreciate you lying...I don't like liars especially when I'm trying to make them part of my crew." She continued and Valentina just grew more confused and curious as she unintentionally eavesdropped. "You need to be honest with me for this to work...so go ahead." "All due respect Lieutenant, but it's a private matter and I guess I will just shut up from now on." Carver's voice could finally be heard and Valentina was immediately felt a bitter taste in her mouth...she knew what they were talking about and for some reasons it pissed her off badly.

Intro - Next Chapter
•••
"So are you really back? For good?" Sylvie asked enthusiastically and hopeful at the same time, because the past few months being joined by floaters on ambo almost made her reconsider her career choices.
"I really am...I'm not leaving anymore, I promise!" Valentina answered amused as she saw her partner do little jumps up and down out of excitement. "Have you talked...to Severide?" Whispering the last part Sylvie looked around to make sure nobody was going to walk in, as gossip hour has officially started for the two girls. "I did and uhm...it was a little weird. I mean I expected it to be like this." Putting her sweater in the locker, she shut the door and the two made their way towards the common room. "And Stella?" Sylvie asked unsure knowing the history the two ladies have had even before Valentina left. It wasn't that they didn't get along or didn't stand each other, it was more of a personality clash and they were somewhat cordial to say the least. "What am I supposed to say to her? I always knew you were going to take my boyfriend but I never really thought you were going to go as far as marrying him." Laughing at her sarcastic comment she realized how snarky it sounded so she continued by saying,"I am just going to keep a safe distance...we don't need to be friends or anything, all we need to do is co-exist in the same firehouse."
"Yeah...you make that sound so easy." Brett commented being aware of the firey personalities of both her friends. Walking further they quickly noticed Gallo preparing breakfast, but someone else caught Valentina's eye...a guy she has never seen before pouring himself a cup of coffee. Noticing the look on her friend's face, Brett took it upon herself to introduce the two. "Carver, this is Valentina...my partner." She said as he quickly extended his hand. "Val is fine." She spoke earning a very charming smile in return. "It's good to not be the newest kid on this playground anymore." He said taking a sip out of his coffee and keeping his eyes glued on Valentina. "Oh I am not new...you're not getting rid of that status so easily." Giving him a smirk in return, the two paramedics were making their way out right when a call came in.
"A construction site? That should be interesting..." Valentina said as she got in the passenger seat of the Ambo. And it was nothing short of it. She almost forgot the hectic, almost impossible to believe calls the firehouse is used to get. After dropping the victim at Med and filling the paperwork, the two paramedics were making their way back.
"So what's the deal with the new guy?" Valentina asked and noticed Brett already smirking "What?" "Nothing, I was just wondering this morning how long it would take you to ask about him." The blonde said with quite an attitude and smiling to herself.
"You know I'm not going there again...I'm just asking out of curiosity." To say that the last time she got involved with a firefighter had left her quite traumatized, would be an understatement, so she promised herself she will not do that again. "He was in the academy with Stella and there is some sort of animosity between them, that's all I know...oh and it was Boden who brought him in and Stella wasn't too happy about it." Sylvie said right when they pulled in at the firehouse. "Speaking of the devil." Before the two even got out of the ambo, Carver was already making his way towards them. "How's the guy doing?" He asked and Sylvie just conveniently had to take a call. "Uhm...he was still critical when we left, that's all I know sorry." Valentina said as her eyes trailed off to his injured wrist. "Let me put a bandage on that before it gets infected, will you?" Nodding at her words, he followed her every move as she gathered the supplies she needed. "So if you're not new here, what's your deal with this place?" He asked receiving a chuckle in return. "My deal? I've worked here for a few years, then I had to move away for a while and now I'm back...but I know what it's like to be a newcomer among this bunch...they are great people but sometimes it takes a while to warm up to them and vice-versa." The conversation would've continued for much longer but he was called into the Chief's office. "If you hear anything else on the victim, please let me know." Carver said before disappearing into the firehouse.
For some reason the whole interaction left Valentina smiling to herself. She remembered how her first few shifts were at 51 so she could relate to what Carver was now going through.
The rest of the shift went by painfully slow. Out of pure habit she almost walked into Severide's quarters but thankfully nobody noticed. She was used to do that when she wanted to vent or just make time pass on slow shifts, but now she didn't have that privilege anymore. In the later hours of the night the bunk room finally fell into dead silence with most people either sleeping or watching TV in the common room. Valentina was turning from side to side, regretting the third cup of coffee she drank in the afternoon. Looking to her right, Brett was fast asleep with an open book resting in her hand and on her left, Ritter was snoozing dangerously close to the edge of his bed. Sitting up she noticed the light in Kelly's quarters and him still being at his desk probably finishing up incident reports. She really wanted to have a more in depth conversation with him but that just seemed unfeasible right now and also a little inappropriatefor a married man to talk about feelings with his ex girlfriend. "How do you think you're going to make this work?" A whispering voice spoke and she realized Ritter had woken up. "Make what work?"
"You working in the same firehouse where your ex boyfriend is also working and on top of that his new wife is also here and you don't really stand-" Before he could finish Val interrupted him. "Ok Ritter, I think I got it...I don't really have a choice but suck it up and make it work." "Then start by stop staring...you've been staring at him for a few minutes." He continued and she clearly didn't realize she's been doing that for so long. Before returning she thought she could handle all this way better, she thought she was past this, she thought there were no lingering emotions left, but barely a shift in and she's already losing herself.
As the shift finally came to an end, everybody was slowly making their way out of the firehouse and towards their cars. "Are you coming to Molly's tonight?" Sylvie asked as she zipped her bag before heading out. "I guess I could use a few drinks and we need to catch up." Sylvie was the only person she kept in touch with on her time away and she would keep Valentina up to date with firehouse gossip from time to time. Walking out together she noticed Carver right in front of them. "Hey, I'll see you later then." Saying their goodbyes Valentina jogged towards the new firefighter. "Carver! I didn't manage to get any new info about the victim but I have a friend at Med and he can tell you more about him...just give him a call." Handing him a piece of paper with a number on him, she clearly took him by surprise. "Thanks I really appreciate it." He said and earned a smile from her in return. As she wanted to continue to walk towards her car he stopped her this time. "Hey, do you want to grab a drink sometime?" She was taken aback by the sudden question and she had to take a few seconds to make sure she heard that right.
"I uhm...that's really nice of you but I don't... date firefighters." Her answer wasn't what he expected but he was also not going to give up this easily. Valentina was the first person to make him somewhat comfortable at the firehouse and on top of that she also did such a nice thing for him without him even asking her to.
"I said drinks not dinner." Carver said giving it another try and this time it seemed like it worked. A smirk creeped on Valentina's face and she had to look down as she felt her cheeks heating up. "Alright, drinks it is."

Next Chapter
•••
Having a rough upbringing life has given Valentina many lessons and one of them was, you can't escape your past...but she obviously didn't listen. After graduating paramedic academy and finally landing a job, she thought she finally had gotten out of the struggling state to make ends meet in which she has been trapped for most of her life...and she did for around 6 years, more or less.
After being a floater for a few months she was finally posted at Firehouse 51, she had a great partner, she was building lifetime long friendships and her relationship with her boyfriend was nothing short out of a telenovela. But oh man...she never loved anyone else the way she loved him and quite frankly he was the only man she ever fell in love with.
But disaster and chaos struck her life inevitably...growing up she and her little sister were raised by her older brother, who became overnight their legal guardian after their mother checked out on them. Long story short, her big brother got involved in some sketchy stuff in order to put food on the table and put them through school. Now many years later, after all of them successfully left that kind of life behind, they were forced to leave Chicago for their own safety.
And it was the toughest decision Valentina had to make in her entire life. That mixed with pain and irrational thinking, she decided to cut everyone off so she could move on without spiraling down into a complete wreck. Her departure has left behind a lot of unanswered questions and hurt people...and she knew that. Why? Because she never found peace in the new city that was supposed to be her new home. Chicago was home. And after "hiding" for a few years she knew she had to come back...only a whole lot of things were to change.
//
Sitting across the table from the man that first believed in her professional skills and gave her first stable job her foot was unconsciously bouncing up and down. "I'm really glad to have you back here...and I'm sure everybody else will be just as happy to see you again." "I have to thank you Chief...for basically keeping my seat warm all this time." Sharing a laugh his eyes drifted behind her, as another person was making his towards the office.
Valentina knew who it was before she ever turned around. It was the reason why she didn't go straight to the locker room and instead came into the Chief's office.
"Chief you wanted to see me?" A very familiar voice echoed through the room making Valentina get up from her seat and turn around to come face to face with him.
"Oh you have to be kidding me..." He spoke the moment he realized who was standing right in front of him.
"Severide...Valentina will be taking back her seat on Ambo. Now...I brought you in here because I need to hear from both of you that you can work together from now on...and whatever has happened in the past won't become a present issue in my firehouse." Chief Boden spoke hoping the Ambo saga will finally be over, as he has had a tough time with floaters recently.
"It's fine by me Chief." She quickly answered as she started to feel the tension already building up. "Same with me." The Lieutenant mumbled, still trying to piece together what had just happened.
"Good, you're dismissed!"
Leaving the office and walking together towards the common area, there was nothing but unpleasant silence among the two former lovers...until Valentina stepped in front of Kelly making him stop abruptly.
"I know a lot of things have happend while I've been gone and I know you're married now...but I swear I didn't come back to raise any havoc." In her mind, the sooner they got out the weird, uncomfortable conversations, the better...but she could've waited at least a bit longer.
"Not raise any havoc? Really? That doesn't sound like you..." And with that, he continued walking, leaving her just standing in the middle of the hallway.

these shows have PHENOMENAL actors, but such shitty writing. even the actors themselves have said in interviews that they never know where their character’s storylines are heading (and politely expressed that it was annoying) and that they didn’t like it because they could’ve acted out a prior storyline differently to fit the future narrative.
if you have a successful show. plan ahead. plan seasons ahead. this is bs
