Kelly's pov: it's been a couple weeks since I finally got my shit together and told tell the real reason why I being keeping mine distance from her. She was mad at me for a few but she understood but told me to never do that again. Believe me that won't happen ever again today was a shift day and within 20 minutes of the shift started we get called to a house fire when we got closer to the house my surrounding familiar but once we got in front of the house and I realize that this was the housefire it brought back a lot of memories because this is my childhood home. Once we were able to get everyone out of the house and the fire was put out and headed back to the fire station. I did my paperwork I need you to do for chief really fast and then I went to find Stella so we can talk about it.
S= was that crazy working a call in your childhood home
K= room seems smaller
S= Mm-hmmm it was a good thing you knew where the kid might go
K= it was my escape route back bedroom out the window down the spout do you know April over at med. ( shakes her head yes ) she used to live up the street and she'd let me crash up at her place when ... when I didn't wanna to be home
S= this is in Benny's hey day

DC= that's it
Me and the detective head to my old house and when we get there we open the fridge and we see lots needles needles at first we thought it was drugs related but once we heard the owners come back and explain we realized it was insulin for The teenage boys diabetes . After shift I decided to go check on your family at med but also talk to April about something

He didn't want to listen to me so when the elevator doors open back up he ran away from me. The next day I went on April to call me back about if she found anything for this family. It's in the shift I still haven't heard from her but all of sudden I hear knocking on my office door
