Summary
Malcolm tried to remember the last time he felt so affected meeting someone. He really couldn’t. This felt different somehow and all he could think of is that it would be nice to have a friend.
Malcolm comes home to the city he left, only this time he finds more than the ghosts his father left behind. He finds an unexpectedly new beginning.

Firefighter Lip x Chef Sydney
It’s each of them having chili recipes that are very near and dear to their hearts. It’s Lip who gets to have his streak of adrenaline and still take care of people. It’s Syd who sees this very kind sweet man in uniform and stretching out firehouse t-shirts when he’s not in uniform. It’s hometown heroes with hearts of gold. It’s both of them saying you’re safe with me.

Summary
“So where ya taking me?”
“You’ll find out.”
“But what about my outfit?” Her faces scrunches in concern as a million thoughts flash before her eyes.
“I picked it.”
“What about my hair? What if it's too much and it gets in the way?” She was wearing boho braids and although she really liked them they were not always practical, if their date was going to involve cooking.
“Your hair is perfect, baby. Just be quiet for once. Let me take care of you.” He holds her by the shoulders so she’s forced to gaze in his direction.
“Carmen.” She looks at him with her bottom lip pushed out in petulance.
“I’m serious Sydney. You are always doing so much for everyone else. You’re mine to spoil. Plus Natalie and Tina threatened me.”
They had been caught up in work lately. Not spending as much time together outside of the kitchen that they needed to in order to build a relationship that was more than just mutual interest in their work. They moved in together to pursue this more easily. But owning and running a functional kitchen took a lot out of them emotionally and physically.

Summary
Sydney still has his whole fucking staff wrapped around her finger. Tina still was in communication with Sydney too. Sending her pictures of her R&D plates just to get that approval from her mentor. Of course Natalie couldn’t fucking shut up about the food she brought over to them or the cute winter coat she brought the baby. It was like she was more present in her absence than she was when she was near.
He looks at his phone for a few minutes then slips it back into his pocket.or Carmy and Sydney deal with the aftermath of Sydney leaving the bear and what that means for their relationship.
