A\N: So the idea for this story came to me when I was re-watching "Shoved in My Face" and even though I currently have two other stories on the go and one I'm co-writing; plus my classes and a three day a week placement start this week you know I had to post it now. That being said this story is going to be semi-A\U. It takes place after Matt asks Gabby to move in with him and she's kissing him on his lap. After that while I might include some of the story lines (Shay's new partner, Gabby being in the fire academy, side effects to Matt's accident) it will probably end up going in a total different direction. As always though I'll try to include all of the characters when I can and keep them in character as well. Oh and the italics in he story are Gabby's thoughts. Now without any further ado I present you to my latest story.

He asked you to move in with him. You're getting a place together. Just tell him.

"Gabby, baby?" Matt stopped kissing her neck and looked at her beautiful brown eyes. "Sweetie if you think it's to sudden to move in together-"

"No, no." She forced herself to concentrate as she brought her lips to his, "I'm just thinking about how I could have lost you."

"I know; but I'm here now and I'm not going anywhere. You know what we should do?"

"What?"

"Go on a first official date; now that we told everybody I want to show you off in public."

He loves you so much. Just tell him. What could go wrong? "Yeah I'd love that. How about Saturday."

"It's a date."

"Matt there's-" Gabby's stomach did a three-sixty flip and she threw-up all over herself and Matt.

Flushing a dark shade of red She stood and whipped her mouth, "God Matt I'm so sorry."

"No, no it's okay; you go have a warm bath, get yourself cleaned up. I'll cleanup in here."

"No, no I'm the one that threw-up-"

"Yeah and that means you're sick; go relax."

You're not sick. Tell him the truth.

Gabriela walked into the washroom and closed and locked the door tears quickly streaming down her face. She was finally happy in her personal life and her career; she didn't want anything to ruin that. At the same time though she had always wanted a family and she knew Matt wanted kids as well. She couldn't bear the thought of having an abortion but she didn't think she could raise two children.

Taking a breath she turned on the tap for the bath and put her hand underneath the warm water; finally getting in the tub she let the warm water soothe her; after just having a shower minutes before her hair was already wet so she put it in a ponytail so it wouldn't get even more wet.

"Babe," Matt knocked on the door, "You okay?"

"Yeah, the warm water's helping," Gabby responded, "Sorry I locked the door; habit."

"That's okay; I just wanted to make sure you were okay."

"Yeah I'm fine."

"Good."

Gabriela closed her eyes and took a few more deep breaths before climbing out of the water and drying off. She needed to talk to Shay and she needed to do it now. She didn't care if it was almost eight o'clock at night; she needed to talk to her friend. She changed into one of Matt's old t-shirts and a pair of sweatpants and got out her cell phone.

"Who're you calling babe?" Matt nuzzled her neck.

"Shay. I forgot we were going to meet for drinks tonight," She smoothly and quickly lied, "Hope she's still not waiting."

"You shouldn't go out now Gabby; Shay will understand."

"Yeah," Gabby left a message at the answering machine, "You know what," She turned to face him, "I think I'm going to just go back to my place tonight and sleep there. I'm still feeling a little sick."

'I'll go with you."

"No, no Matt; I don't want you to get what I have."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

"Okay," Matt finally agreed.

Gabby got changed again and grabbed her duffel bag and left; she barely made it into her car before she broke down into sobs; crying all the way back to her apartment she called Shay again this time to get an answer."

"Gabby? What's up?"

"Shay-Shay I need… to to talk to you."

"Sweetie what's wrong? Did Casey break up with you?
"

"No…. No…. just...please…. come to my place."

"I'm on my way," Shay hung up the phone and left.

When Shay arrived at her best friends house she let herself in and found Gabby sitting on the couch crying.

"Oh Sweetie," She sat beside her and pulled her friend into her arms, "What happened?"

"You-you know that Dentist Appointment I had yesterday."

"Yeah the one you had to go to right after you dropped by the station with your class."

Gabby nodded her head, "It wasn't a dentist appointment," She all but whispered.

"Gabriela Dawson, are you pregnant?" A huge smile formed on Leslie Shay's face.

Gabby slowly nodded her head, "Eight weeks; its twins Shay. I'm having twins."

"Gabby I don't understand; you and Casey both want kids why all this?" She asked as gently as she could.

"I don't know if I'm ready Shay; let alone if Matt's ready. He had a serious brain injury five weeks ago! He says he's okay but I know he's not and-and just everything I mean why now? Why was it the first time we had sex I got pregnant; with twins?"

Shay rubbed her back, "The universe knows you belong together Gabby. He loves you; and he'll love both of your babies."

"I threw up on him today; we were kissing and something happened and I threw up."

"Your bodies going through huge changes sweetie; your hormones are all over the place."

"I told him I was sick and that I needed to be alone."

"And-" She was interrupted by the ringing of the door bell "Five bucks says that's Casey." She tugged on her friend's hand and helped her up, "Just talk to him;" She encouraged as she walked with her to the door and opened it.

"Shay, hey," Casey offered his friend a semi-half smile.

"I was just checking in on our girl here; I'll go now," She grabbed her coat and left.

Gabby looked at Matt and bit her lower lip, "I-I-" She tried to say the word but she couldn't and if she couldn't bring herself to even say it then how could she be a mother. "I'm pregnant Matt; we're having twins."
