Paramedic Lizzie Novak (Jocelyn Hudon) and Firefighter Jack Damon (Michael Bradway)!

Jocelyn Hudon, who plays Novak, recently discussed the pair’s relationship in an interview with ScreenRant, essentially saying, “They’re Friends,” but with a lot of underlying questions.

Here’s what she revealed:

• Uncertainty from the Actress: Hudon admitted that she’s just as in the dark as viewers are about where the writers plan to take the relationship. “I don’t know because he low-key broke up with her in one of the episodes, and then she’s kind of still around,” Hudon said, referencing Damon’s hesitancy to pursue a relationship with her in Season 13, likely due to his focus on getting his job back at Firehouse 51 permanently.
• A “One-Off” Trist: While Novak and Damon shared a steamy kiss and ended up in bed together in Season 13, it was presented as a “one-off” tryst, and they didn’t become an official couple. Novak has been “playing it cool” and maintaining a casual friendship.
• Potential Love Triangle with Chicago Med?: Hudon even teased another potential romantic interest for Novak: John Frost (Darren Barnet) from Chicago Med. “She’s with him in the hospital. They’re friends. He came over for dinner at her and Ritter’s place, so I’m not exactly sure where that’s going. And there are a bunch of fans also shipping Novak and Frost from Med, so I don’t know what direction it’s going to go,” she explained.
• Neutral Stance on Her Preference: When asked who she’d personally like to see Novak end up with, Hudon remained neutral, stating she’s excited to see where the writers take it and is “on board with whatever way they go.”

In summary:

Despite the palpable chemistry and the brief intimate moment between Novak and Damon in Season 13, their romantic future is far from certain. Damon previously “friend-zoned” Novak, and even the actress herself isn’t sure if they’ll move beyond “friends” or if Novak might explore a new connection, possibly with a character from Chicago Med. It seems Chicago Fire is setting up another “will-they/won’t-they” dynamic, or even a potential love triangle, for Season 14.
