Chapter 25

''Hey, Bowmen!'' Matt yelled as he walked towards the tent he and the regiment were staying in. He was in the same regiment as before and even though Tommy and Baker were gone, a lot of people were still the same.

''Hey, Casey!'' Jay said excited as he saw Matt and he walked towards Matt, so happy to see him and hugged him then.

''How are you! I am so glad you are back!''

''So am I!'' Matt smiled, ''I feel good. Fully recovered.''

''That is great to hear, Clarke said it was hard to keep track of you in Germany but that you had some troubles with your balance?'' Jay said as they walked towards the tent. Matt had just put his stuff down in there even though most of his stuff were kept safe by Clarke.

''Yes, I had troubles with my balance and had to relearn how to walk but as my balance got better if went pretty well. 9 weeks to recover isn't too bad.'' He smiled then and Jay nodded.

''How about Baker? Did you still see him in the hospital.''

''Yeah...we shared a room. He insulted me and Gabby. That's why he got moved to another room.'' Matt said then as he also didn't want to tell Jay about what Baker had done to him. it was just that it just didn't feel raid to talk shit about Baker here.

''That man was such a jerk. Still didn't deserve what happened, but still not a nice man I guess.''

''No.'' Matt just said then but finally he did sigh then.

''He attacked me while we were sharing a room.'' Matt said as he sat down, ''Later it turned out that he was suffering from PTSD and I reminded him off the explosion. He tried to strangle me and was moved to another locked ward. That's all I know.''

''Oh shit.'' Jay said then but finally nodded at Matt.

''I am happy you are back though.''

''Me too.'' Matt smiled then.

After unpacking some of his stuff he walked around then, greeting some people that were surprised to see him back and walked onto the building where the higher ranks were staying, walking to where he knew Clarke was staying and knocking on the door.

''Hey, look at you being back.'' Clarke smiled as he shook Matt's hand.

''Yeah, thanks for putting my stuff in the tent.'' Matt smiled as he was also glad to be back, even though he knew he would have to miss Gabby so long again.

''Heard Gabby came for you.''

''Yeah, she spend weeks with me there, really helped me through it.'' Matt said as Clarke pointed him to sit down on a chair in the room while Clarke sat down on the bed. Even though he was a higher rank it wasn't really big.

''That's great, you are such a great couple.''

''I - I was thinking of asking her to marry me while she was there, but I wasn't sure if it was the right time, but now I regret it. But I will ask her to marry me once I get back. One of the first things I will do.'' Matt said then, not sure why he was telling all of this to Clarke but he also knew that Clarke would understand because he knew what a great girl Gabby was.

''You are so in love.'' Clarke smirked then.

''I am...but that is not why I am here. I wanted to thank you for saving my life.''

''Done deal, you think Antonio would let me come back if I let you die?'' Clarke teased him a bit.

''Probably not.'' Matt smirked. It was nice to have somebody here he knew well and even though Clarke was higher in rank, he also felt like a good friend.

''Alright, private. I will see you tomorrow again in the morning for drills.''

''Definitely.'' Matt said as he got up and walked out then.

Back at the tent he spend some card games with the men there, so happy to be back.

Later that night, while everybody was asleep in the tenth he couldn't sleep and left the tent, walking outside with his torch and some paper and a pen, hoping he could finally write the letter he had wanted to write to Antonio and her dad in Germany but hadn't gotten too.

Matt was sitting on the hill again he had sat before with the view over the stars, starting to write the letter to Antonio and to her dad to ask their permission for marrying Gabby. Even though he would love to ask them in person, he would to ask her as soon as he got back and it would be something he would be able to plan from now on. Something to look forward to. Hopefully they could also start a family one day.


After the pregnancy test had come back positive Gabby had been so surprised and stressed Laura had taken her to Matt's apartment where she was living now. She sat Gabby down by the kitchen table and Gabby got the test from her bag, looked at it again in disbelief while Laura was making some tea for her, hoping it would calm her down a bit.

''Laura, I can't tell Matt!'' Gabby said upset as tears filled her eyes and she looked at the pregnancy test.

''You have to tell him! What do you want to do? Surprise him with a baby bump at the airport in six months?'' Laura asked then as she laid her arm around Gabby.

''I know, but I can't tell him, it will be so long for him before he gets here.''

''Why don't you wait just until the first checkup? Just so you know everything is okay with the pregnancy? You could send him a letter after that.'' Laura proposed then and Gabby nodded.

''Well you sure did good work though in Germany.'' Laura tried to cheer her sister in law up and Gabby looked at her.

''I couldn't even sleep with him there... we only tested my bed...'' She smiled cheeky then and Laura laughed loud.

''Oh you!'' She laughed and Gabby looked a bit sad then.

''Will you come with me?'' She asked then as she was also sad because Matt would not be able to come with her to the checkups now that she was pregnant.

''Of course I will.'' Laura promised her and Gabby hugged her relieved. Even though she was sad about finding out she was pregnant now and she couldn't even truly share it with Matt.
