Laying in bed late at night, Ryan is woken up with a sharp pain

Ryan: "Ooh." she groans, sitting up in her spot as Matt jerks awake

Matt: "I'm up. I'm up." he breathes

Ryan: "Oof."

Matt: "Is it time?"

Ryan: "No." she sighs, flopping back onto her spot as Matt huffs, slowly lowering his head onto his pillow

Sitting in the kitchen, Ryan gulps down a bowl of soup as Kelly sits beside her. Lowering the bowl from her face she licks her lips, looking over at Kelly who stares at her with a blank look on his face

Ryan: "What?" she hums

Kelly: "You just downed an entire bowl of sriracha chicken noodle soup."

Ryan: "I want him out. Today" she declares "Ooh."

Kelly: "Is it time?" he perks up

Ryan: "Yes. To pee, again." she whines, turning down the hall as Kelly chuckles, shaking his head

Matt: "Did the yoga work?" he questions, leaning against the back of the couch to look down at where Ryan lies on a yoga mat

Ryan: "No" she huffs "I think I'm stuck. Can you help me up, please?" she pouts, holding her arms up which makes Matt chuckle as he rounds the couch, helping her to her feet "Remind me again which one of us has the stingy gene?"

Matt: "I think that's a Severide thing. Us Casey's just like making a dramatic entrance."
Ryan: "I bet you do." she snickers

Matt: "Alright so we've tried raspberry tea, spicy foods and now exercise. What's next?"

Ryan: "Sex."

Matt: "What?" his eyes widen as she pulls off her shirt, tossing it to him "Oh, why didn't we start with that one?" he breathes, watching her walk out the room before following after her

Brett: "Pineapple now?"

Ryan: "Yeah, well none of the other methods have worked so..." she sighs, slumping her shoulders

Dawson: "Did you try-"

Ryan: "Yes. Multiple times." she huffs, violently poking at a piece of pineapple

Boden: "Alright, everybody..." he calls out, entering the room, stopping in his steps when seeing Ryan "What are you doing here?"

Ryan: "Well seeing as how I could give birth any second, these two decided it's best I not be left alone at home" she hums, pointing her thumb at where Matt and Kelly stand "Although the way it's looking, it'll be years before I give birth, so..." she grits with a tight smile

Boden: "Alright, then" he nods "We have a bona fide weather emergency. Temperature's are down to below 15. Windchill brings that to under 40. Cold weather has knocked out the servers at the alarm office. 911 is down. It is war out there and we have got to be prepared."

Matt: "Motorized tools, silver bullets, anything that can freeze needs to be protected. Ten minutes exposed is ten minutes too long."

Boden: "It is us against the raving bitch side of Chicago. I expect us all to hold our own. You all are dismissed."

Hermann: "Hey, come on, Cruz. Up and at 'em."

Cruz: "40 below with the windchill. That means that as cold as it is at 0 degrees, and that's pretty damn cold, it is 40 degrees colder than that." he rants, Ryan, Brett, Otis and Hermann exchanging amused looks
