Next day. Morning. At the Firehouse. At Chief's office. 

Me "The blood test results came back. I'm fine. I can work again"

The Chief nodded "okay"

I asked confused "okay? that's all i get? after you believing some fake photo more than me? "

Chief "what do you want to hear from me?"

Me "that you're sorry for not believing me?"

Chief "i am deeply sorry for doubting you. I should've known you're never do something like that because you were raised right"

I nodded "okay"

Chief "And i am sorry for suspending you but i couldn't risk anything because i am still the Chief of this Firehouse"

I nodded "i know. I get it"

He nodded "you're back on shift."

I nodded "okay"

Chief nodded "And tell Severide you're back on shift"

I froze "can't you do that?"

Chief shot me a look.

I let out a deep breath "fine. I'll talk to him"

He nodded "okay"

Then i turned to the door. 

Chief "Florence"

I turned to him. 

Chief smiled "welcome back"

I nodded, smiling "thanks"



In the bunk room. In front of Kelly's bunk room. 

Kelly opened the door and froze when he saw me "you're back?"

I nodded "yeah. I am no longer suspended, the drug test results came back clean. I am officially back on shift. "

He nodded "thanks for letting me know. Glad to have you back"

I nodded "but there's something else"

He looked at me confused.

I walked inside "we need to talk"

He looked at me confused and closed the door "about what?"

I shot him a look "are you serious? Kelly, we haven't talked since the day we broke up"

Kelly corrected me "you broke up with me"

I shot him a look.. 

Kelly "well, what is there to talk about?"

Me "you tell me, since you obviously can talk to everyone about it except to the person you should talk to"

Kelly shook his head "I don't know what you are talking about"

I asked amused "do you really think Benny didn't talk to me?"

Kelly sighed "what did he say?"

Me "exactly what you told him"

He nodded "yeah, he talked to me too. Said that I should stop treating you like crap"

I nodded "you did"

Kelly "I treated you like a normal firefighter, Florence"

Me "you treated me like a candidate. And I am not a damn candidate, Severide"
