Severide's POV
I don't know what Casey must be going thru but I need to be there for him. Mad at me or not I will try to talk to him. Antonio told me he isn't taking the news so well. I am walking arond outside the hospital now. Thats where I spot him sitting on a bench outside the emergency room entrance.
"Hey man It's pretty cold out here" I say blowing into my hands to warm them up.
"Look Severide I just want to be alone" Matt says not even looking at me.
"Casey I don't know what your going thru but I want you to know I'm here." I tell him as I sit on the bench next to him.
"I know that I yelled at you and Shay earlier, but It's not your fault any of it." Matt says finally looking over at me now.
"Look how ever you found out about the baby is done. Now what are you going to do with that information?" I ask curious.
"Actually it's plural." He says looking at me still with a look of nervousness.
"Plural...what you mean twins?" I ask shocked.
" Crazy right" Matt says shaking his head looking at he floor." When I first found out I wasn't sure how I felt, I was so angry and hurt."
"But now?" I ask unsure of what he was feeling.
"I'm going to be a dad" Matt looks at me and spreads a big smile across his face.
"You're going to be a dad" I say matching his smile,and placing my hand on his shoulder.
"Thanks Kelly, for listening." He tells me sincere." I think I'm ready to go see Gabby now."
"Good, cause it's freezing out here." I say laughing as we got up and walked back into the hospital.
Gabby's POV
"I really screwed this up Shay didn't I" I say as she walks in my hospital room.
"Well every mistake can be corrected Gabby" Shay says sitting down next to my bed pulling the chair closer.
"Thank you for being here, I really need my friend" I say taking her hand."He really hates me doesn't he" I break down into tears.
"I don't hate you" I hear from the doorway, and I look up to see Matt standing there.
"Well I will go find Kelly for my ride home now" Shay says standing up to leave now and I give her a nod.
"Shay I'm sorry" Matt says stopping her as she passes by him. "It's all good" she quickly tells him and walks out of the room.
"Why did you do it?" Was all Matt spoke next not moving from the doorway.
I couldn't find the words to speak. Matt was asking for an explanation and at the moment none of the reasons in my head sounded right. We stayed in silence for what seemed like hours. Just watching each others hurt expressions on ones face, til there was a knock at the door startling us both.
"Excuse me Ms. Dawson I am Kathy I'm here to do your ultrasound." She says entering the room pushing the machine in front of her."Sir if you don't mind shutting the lights off " Kathy tells Matt as he was starting to leave.
"Matt please stay" I quickly call out before he could walk out the door.
"Oh you are the father. I'm sorry didn't realise." Kathy says looking over towards Matt.
"Yes I am" Is all he spoke before shutting the lights and taking a seat next to me now.
"Now the doctors believe everything is fine with your babies, but the ultrasound will better clarify that." Kathy speaks as she is typing information into the machine. " Do you know how this works Ms. Dawson."
"Please call me Gabby and this is Matt. And yes I do understand, this will be my second ultrasound." I tell her as she places the jell on my abdomen now, and Matt stay's totally silent. Once she places the wand to my abdomen, with a few quick circles we all hear the most amazing sound fill the room.
"Is that the heartbeats?" Matt finally breaks his silence.
"Yes it is" Kathy answers Matt' question. We turn and look at each other now tears filling both our eyes, and Matt reaches his hand out for mine.
Matt and I stayed very quiet while Kathy explained everything to us of what she was looking at on the monitor. Each hand, each foot, all their fingers and toes. This was a mesmerizing site every time you see it.
"Well everything looks fine from what I can see. I will bring these scans to the doctor and he will be in to let you know if all looks good." Kathy says as she wipes the jell off me now.
" Thank you" Matt and I spoke at the same time.
Once Kathy left the room pushing the machine out, Matt and I were left in silence again in the dimly lit room. Neither one of us knowing what to say. Matt then gently squeezes my hand for he never let go of during the ultrasound. This caused me to look at him now and my tears to surface.
"Matt I'm sorry" I finally spoke." This was never about you, it was myself selfishness. I never doubted you as a father for these babies. I just didn't want you to feel obligated to be with me."
"Gabby I'll admit you hurt me. But being with you would never be an obligation."Matt spoke softly."We have a lot to figure out but I would like us to try."
"I would very much like that" I say smiling at him now. "We have alot of decisions to make"
"Ok Ms. Dawson" The doctor walked in with a quick knock, before I could say anymore to Matt." Everything is great, babies are doing well. I am going to release you in a few more hours. You are at 18 weeks gestation so we were able to see the sex of both babies, would you like to know?
"Matt I want you to be a part of this decision, do you want to know?" I ask.
"Honestly I didn't know anything before today, so what's a little bit longer of a wait." Matt says placing his hand on my stomach for the first time.
"I'm glad you said that cause I want to be surprised as well" I say placing my hand over his.
"Ok well if you have no more questions for me I will get you released soon." Doctor says."I want you to be monitoring your blood pressure so I will be in touch with your OB doctor."
" Thanks doc" I say as he walks out, and I let out a big yawn."So what would you like to talk about first?"
" Gabby your tired. Get some rest we can talk after we get you home" Matt says fixing the sheets on the bed to cover me with now.
"Will you stay here til they release me?" I ask grabbing his hand.
"Of course, Just let me call Severide and ask him and Shay to get my truck here so we can get home later" He says as he stands up and steps out of the room, and I feel my eyes getting heavy now.
Hope you like this chapter. Matt and Gabby going in the right direction we hope right.
