A few days later Matt and Gabby walked up to firehouse 51 for Gabby's first shift back. "I'm glad you're back home." Matt smiled at Gabby and squeezed her hand.
"It's really good to be back." Gabby smiled as they walked through the open doors of the apparatus floor.
"Ahh. There's my girl!" Shay squealed and ran over to give Gabby a hug. "How are you feeling?" Shay asked as she let go of Gabby.
"I feel great. I'm glad to be back." Gabby smiled as she continued into the locker room. She quickly changed and put her things back into her old locker. Once everything was back where it belonged she shut the locker door and grabbed the roll of masking tape. She pulled a strip from it and stuck it to the door and wrote "Dawson" on it and she was officially back.
She walked into the common room and everyone cheered and a few people shouted welcome back. Gabby laughed, "Thanks guys, it's great to be back." The applause died down and Gabby walked over to the coffee machine. She started to pour herself a cup when she heard her name behind her and turned around.
"Gabriela Dawson?" A small blond woman asked, "Sylvie Brett, I'm the other paramedic on 61." She smiled and she stuck her hand out to shake Dawson's hand.
"Nice to meet you. I'm looking forward to working with you." Gabby smiled as Brett walked away.
Gabby put her large cup of coffee to her lips and Matt walked up and leaned against the counter. He gently reached up and pulled the mug away from her lips. "Hey new girl, so correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't that have something to do with you?" Matt pointed at the ultrasound photo that was still stuck to the fridge.
"Oh you know just a little bit." Gabby laughed sarcastically.
"Well then I am going to have to confiscate this." Matt said as he took the coffee and sipped on it himself. "Because, you see I have been doing some reading and caffeine is bad for pregnant women."
"You've been reading about pregnancy?" Gabby smiled at him and he nodded yes. "That's really amazing; you are going to be so much more prepared than me." Gabby laughed nervously.
"Don't worry we still have plenty of time and you are going to be so much better than me anyway. I have no experience with kids and you at least have nieces and nephews I don't even know if I have ever changed a diaper." Matt laughed.
"Well, this is why we are a team. What I don't know you do." She smiled. "Okay, so what can I drink?" Gabby asked.
"Decaf." Matt smiled and poured her cup. He gave it to her and she grimaced slightly.
She sighed and took the mug. "It'll all be worth it." She muttered and went to the table and sat next to Shay. "So," Gabby lowered her voice, "Is it just me or does Brett look just like you." Gabby laughed a little.
"Oh I know," Shay laughed and hid her face in her magazine. "Okay so, we have two, months to plan the prefect wedding." Shay said and laid the magazine out on the table.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah I know." She said as Matt sat down on the other side of her. "Perfect, you," Gabby laughed and pointed at Matt, "what do you think about this." Gabby showed him the beautiful venue she and Shay had discovered a few days ago.
"It's beautiful. But as long as you like it I don't care." Matt smiled at Gabby.
"Okay, so who is going to be in the wedding?" She asked.
"I don't know who do you want?" Matt responded.
"How about, Shay, Laura, as long as Antonio is fine with it, Isabella, I want to call Heather Darden and do you think Christy would want to be a bridesmaid?" Gabby looked at Matt sheepishly.
"Can't hurt to ask." Matt smiled and lowered his voice. "I was thinking about asking Kelly to be my best man, Antonio, Hermann, Chief and Mills, I guess. Or maybe Otis or Cruz because of the whole you guys dating thing."
"Sounds good," she smiled. "And then Violet and Eva could be flower girls and Diego could be the ring bearer."
"Sounds perfect." Matt smiled. "I'm going to go ask Kelly." Matt said as he got up and walked across the common room. He put his hand on Kelly's shoulder and Kelly got up to follow him out of the room. "So, I wanted to ask you something. Will you be my best man in the wedding?"
Kelly laughed loudly, "Sure man of course!" Kelly gave Matt a quick hug. "I'd love to." Kelly laughed. "I'm going to throw you one hell of a bachelor party." Kelly laughed again.
"Thanks man I-"Matt was cut off by the bells calling them to a car wreck.
They turned and went to their trucks. On the way out Matt walked next to Gabby. As they rounded the truck Matt nudged Gabby, "Kick some ass." Matt smiled at her. "Be safe though." He warned.
"I'll be fine, you stay safe too though." Gabby smiled and climbed into the ambulance.
