    Summary

    Auld Lang Syne: literally "old long since," interpreted as "for old times' sake"

    A time of the year that usually feels so wonderful for Sylvie Brett feels like anything but wonderful with all the tangled strings in her life. Her paramedicine program's funding hangs in the balance, and one of the two best friends she's been in love with for years has fragile custody of two boys that could be challenged at any moment. Add in exes that circle her and her boys (they are absolutely her boys, she just has yet to voice it) like predators stalking prey, and it would take a miracle to put her in the holiday spirit.

    Yet Christmas is known as the time for miracles to happen, and when family comes knocking, the possibility of stars aligning seem more likely than ever.

    Summary

    "And now I'm glad I didn't know the way it all would end, the way it all would go. Our lives are better left to chance. I could've missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance."

    Summary

    After years of missed chances, bad timing, emotional distance, and unspoken feelings, Kelly Severide and Stella Kidd finally find their way back to each other at Station 51. Their journey has been shaped by heartbreak, sacrifice, and the constant danger of a job that never guarantees tomorrow. Older, wiser, and carrying the scars of everything they have survived, they are determined to build something real — something steady, safe, and lasting. But loving each other doesn’t come without fear.
    As the pressures of leadership, the emotional toll of the job, and long-buried insecurities rise to the surface, Kelly and Stella must confront not only the dangers they face in the field, but the ones they carry within themselves. Together, they learn how to communicate honestly, lean on one another without hesitation, and trust that happiness does not always have to end in heartbreak.
    Through long nights at the firehouse, high-stakes rescues, quiet confessions, and deeply intimate moments, their bond slowly deepens into a love rooted in safety, respect, vulnerability, and unwavering devotion.Because sometimes, the greatest rescue isn’t from the flames — it’s finding the place, and the person, where you finally belong.

    Summary

    Stella Kidd has spent her life running toward danger, pulling people from burning buildings and shattered lives. Pregnancy was never supposed to be the hardest rescue of all. When she and Kelly Severide discover they’re expecting their first child, joy comes hand in hand with fear, vulnerability, and the weight of a job that never stops demanding everything they have.

    Week by week, Stella’s pregnancy unfolds against the backdrop of Firehouse 51, where sirens, brotherhood, and found family shape every moment. Kelly learns how to protect without smothering, how to stand steady when the woman he loves faces risks he can’t fight with a hose line. As complications arise and preeclampsia quietly tightens its grip, the line between strength and surrender blurs.

    This is a story about love forged in fire, about choosing trust when control slips away, about a midwife’s calm voice in a living room turned birthing space, and about a baby who arrives not as a miracle untouched by struggle, but as proof that survival can still be beautiful.

    Sometimes the greatest rescue isn’t the one that makes the news. Sometimes it’s the one that changes everything.

    Summary

    Stella Kidd is a singer at the member's only High Rise Club owned by one of Chicago's richest men, her boyfriend Sal Moretti. But theirs was an empty relationship, and Stella knew that she needed to he more than a trinket on someone's arm.

    Kelly Severide is a lieutenant at firehouse 51, and in his spare time, he's single, bored.......and lonely. All his romantic liaisons are a series of one night stands, and deep down, he knows that there's an emptiness that needs filling.
    Until one night at the High Rise Club, Kelly turns around and finds himself mesmerised by the girl singing on the stage.

    This is a story of finding that 'once in a lifetime love' when you least expect it between two people who are so different....but are everything alike.
    It's a story of breaking free of someone who is all kinds of wrong for you and finding someone who will do anything to be the right one for you.

    But between Kelly and Stella stood Sal Moretti and his old Chicago monied family who had secrets that they didn't want Stella to find out....and once she did, Sal was never going to let her go.

     

    Most of the characters belong to the one Chicago universe and do not belong to me...

    Summary

    Kelly is glad Stella is going out for a girls' night with Sylvie while he is away at the arson program, even though it means his phone will be quiet for the evening. But when the quiet is broken by a frantic Violet calling to say Kidd and Brett are missing, Severide does the only thing he can: he calls Matt Casey and catches the first flight home to meet him in Chicago. They're going to get their girls back, no matter what it takes.

    Meanwhile, Sylvie and Stella find themselves hostages in a battle that is so much bigger than themselves.

    Summary

    Groupchats and Instagram shenanigans from the same universe as 'Why Does It Hurt To Leave What's Killing Me?' (without all the angst), and using the same (admittedly hilarious) handles. Chaos ensues, and no one will leave this fic sane.

    ALSO (I'm putting this on all my works, now, so please don't feel targeted if you already asked before this was added) -- BEFORE YOU ASK, I WILL NOT ACCEPT COMMISSIONS OF MY WORKS. WHILE I AM FLATTERED THAT SOME PEOPLE WANT TO, I WILL TURN THEM DOWN, FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS I DO NOT WISH TO DISCLOSE. IF YOU WANT TO DISCUSS SUGGESTIONS YOU HAVE FOR OTHER WORKS, OR SUGGESTIONS FOR CHANGES TO EXISTING ONES, FEEL FREE TO LEAVE COMMENTS (you can also reach out to me on discord if you really want to, but I'm not as good about replying there -- sambrekker).
