"Uh!" Gabby groaned in frustration as she tried to zip up her favourite pair of jeans. "None of my clothes fit!" She fell onto with her hands covering her face.
Matt sat beside her and caressed her growing abdomen, "I don't have any problem with that."
"I like my clothes I don't want to get new ones! Plus I don't want to get anymore fat!" She exclaimed.
"You're not fat," Matt kissed her, "You're pregnant there's a huge difference." He assured her.
"Doesn't seem like it."
"Two living beings we created are going inside of you, that's a huge difference," He lifted up her shirt and kissed her abdomen.
"I still don't want to get new clothes just for nine months."
"Does Dani still have hers?"
"Yeah I'm pretty sure she does. I just didn't think I'd need them so soon but I guess I do."
"Text me later if you want me to pick them up on my way home," Matt kissed her on the lips, "Actually text me later even if you don't, I want to know how you're doing."
Gabby smiled, "Yeah I will."
"Hey Gabby," Jessica smiled as Gabby walked into firehouse fifty-one and joined her at the receptionist desk, "How're you doing today?"
"Board so I came here," Gabby picked up the microphone that connected to the sound system and turned it on, "Matt Casey please report to the front desk."
Jessica twirled her golden blonde hair through her slender fingers as she laughed, "You know you're the only person who could get away with that. Even before you were married."
Gabby shrugged her shoulders up and down.
"You know that voice sounded so familiar, I just don't know where I've heard it though." Shay strolled down the hall a cheeky smile pinned across her face.
"If I wanted to see you I would have paged you?" Gabby faked an annoyed expression.
"Hi to you too," Shay laughed as Matt walked down the hall, "She's moody be careful."
Matt chose to ignore Shay's comment knowing it might upset Gabby if he pressed the issue further, "What are you doing here?" He wondered.
"What you don't want to see me?" Gabby frowned crossing her arms over her chest.
"No, no," Matt quickly corrected himself "its not that at all, I'm just surprised, this morning you didn't have any clothes that fit you."
"I went over to Dani's and got her maternity clothes," Gabby walked out from behind the desk so Matt could see what she was wearing; She was wearing a dark purple long sleeve shirt and dark jeans.
"Beautiful," Matt kissed her cheek, "Absolutely beautiful."
Gabby rolled her eyes, "Uh-huh."
"TRUCK 81, SQUAD 3, AMBULANCE 61 FIRE AT SUSPECTED METH LAB!" Jessica's voice suddenly rang through the firehouse.
"Meth lab," Gabby whispered to herself as Matt kissed her on the lips before jogging into the garage, "Meth lab," She took a few steps backwards and back behind the desk before she collapsed into the chair.
"You okay?" Jessica asked as she handed her the headphones she usually used.
"Yeah its just my brother Antonio's a Vice detective."
"You thinking this is his case?"
"Yeah he mentioned something about a huge meth lab. They never had enough evidence to convict though."
When Antonio Dawson and his partner arrived at the scene of the warehouse fire it was engulfed in flames.
"I'll converse with the fire fighters," Antonio informed his partner.
"Good idea, I'll see what the uni's know," Liam Gowling walked in the other direction.
"Hey Chief Boden," Antonio approached the older man, "Got any news for me?"
"My guys are still scanning the place but we suspect it was a meth lab."
'How many people were inside?"
"My guys have pulled out thirteen so fair, eight of them were seriously injured and one died."
Antonio took out a note pad and scribbled down the information "Are they at Lakeshore?"
"Yeah," Chief Boden heard noise and multiple voices coming through his head-set, "Status!"
"Chief!" Mouch's horse and frustrated voice came through the head set, "It's Lieutenant Casey, he went into the control room to see if there were any more victims and-"
"Some the floor caved in we don't have direct access, it's going to take awhile." Herman finished.
"Is there another way to get to him?" Chief Boden tried to stay calm for his men.
"There's a direct entrance in the back of the building," Cruz spoke up.
"Kelly did you hear that? Can you get to Lieutenant Casey?" Chief Boden asked and suddenly Antonio was listening and interested in the conversation.
"We're on our way," Severide responded. "But we're at the other end of the building and we'll be awhile."
"Chief let me go, I have CPR and fire training!" Antonio spoke up.
Chief Boden turned to the Detective, "Detective I know you're concerned but let my guys do their job and you can do yours."
"Sir, with all due respect taking care of my family is part of my job."
Chief Boden took a huge breath, "I don't think your bosses would like it very much if you go into a fire without proper protection."
"Then give me protection."
"What's the control room looking like?" Chief Boden asked into his walkie-talkie.
"Not much fire just a lot of rubble and things fallen," Herman responded.
"Okay Antonio but if you get hurt-"
"It's all on me I swear of Gabby's life," Antonio promised.
"Just be careful," Boden handed him a fire jacket and helmet from truck 51.
"I will," Antonio put on the gear and ran around to the back of the building. He easily found the entrance he assumed everyone was talking about and bolted in "Matt!" He yelled as he walked carefully, he noticed for the most part the fire had not gotten to this section yet but most of it had fallen through and was in shambles. "Matt!" Antonio jumped over pieces of the now fallen roof, "Bro where are you?"
"Here!" Matt yelled as loud as he could, "I'm stuck under something!"
"I'm on my way!" Antonio ran and found to his horror Matt's left arm completely flattened by a very heavy object. "Can you feel your fingers at all?"
"No!" Matt seethed through pain.
"Okay, I'm going to try and move this.
"Matt, Antonio!" Severide's voice suddenly called out.
"Over here! He's hurt pretty bad!" Antonio alerted the other Lieutenant who with his team quickly rushed over.
It took a good ten minutes but Antonio, Kelly and Kelly's squad team managed to get Matt out.
"We need to get you to the hospital," Antonio saw Matt's badly swollen arm, "Quickly." He added.
"I didn't get to look very fair, I don't know if there's anyone else," Matt ignored Antonio's statement and talked to Kelly.
"Okay we'll look, you go back with Antonio an get that arm looked after.
"It's not that bad," Matt tried to wave off his injury.
"If Gabby heard you say that she'd kill you," Antonio shook his head and clinched his tenth.
"Yeah and if anyone ever finds out what you did-especially your father you're going to be dead," Matt said in response.
"Chief Boden said I could."
"Yeah and what did you have to say to convince him? He knows why you wanted to save me."
"Yeah why's that?" Antonio was beginning to get the feeling that they weren't on the same page.
"Because I'm Gabby's husband and she's pregnant."
"That and there's also the little fact that you're like the brother I never had; Believe it or not I kind of don't want to see you die."
"Yeah?" Matt didn't look too convinced.
"Yeah now go and tell Chief Boden I'm going to drive you to the hospital and make sure you get examined." Antonio instructed.
Matt knew better then to argue with Antonio when he was right and made major and valid points. "Yeah alright," He walked over to Chief Boden.
"Matt!" Gabby rushed into the room where the hospital was keeping Matt overnight for observation, "Matt what happened?" She kissed him on the lips and observed the cast on his entire arm and cuts on his face, "I went to your office to take a nap a few minutes after you left. Jessica woke me up and told me you were here."
"So you don't know what happened?" Antonio pushed himself off against the wall. "What did Jessica tell you?"
"Just that Matt was injured, why what happened?" She studied her older brother's facial features, "Did you get hurt too?" She saw the cuts and scraps on his face, "Why are you hurt?"
"Uh, no reason, the kids must have been playing to rough."
"Don't lie to me!" Gabby's voice raised, "What happened? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine just a few cuts," Antonio talked in what he hoped was a calming voice.
"ANTONIO DON'T LIE TO ME!" Tears streamed down Gabby's face and splashed onto her shirt and onto the covers of Matt's hospital bed, "Don't lie to me!"
"Okay, okay," Antonio pulled her into a hug, "I'm sorry Gab's," He kissed her head, "I'm sorry I scared you."
"What really happened?" Gabby sniffled.
"Antonio saved me," Matt answered, "My team was trapped behind a wall and Kelly's team was covering the other side of a building. Antonio got to me the fastest, I'm pretty sure I might be injured a lot worse if he hadn't come and got me."
"Really?" Gabby looked up at her older brother.
"Yeah," Antonio confirmed Matt's story.
"Why the hell didn't you tell me that sooner? You guys had me worried to death!" She hit Antonio in the stomach, "You're both idiots!" She turned to storm out of the room.
Once she was gone and clearly out of earshot Antonio turned to Matt and said, "Welcome to the world of hormonal pregnant woman, its even worse with twins. Rule number one be very, very careful what you say and always be ready to apologize even if you think it's for something really stupid."
"Does it get worse?" Matt was almost afraid to ask.
"Oh yeah much worse," He winked, "You're going to have a fun five months ahead of you," Antonio chuckled as he walked out of the room.

A\N: Up next: Matt's off on medical leave (due to his broken arm) and Gabby is sixteen weeks pregnant with twins. Should be interesting. Plus I'm hoping to have the chapter where the find out the gender of the twins soon so remember to vote in the poll.
