One week later
''Hey, I will be fine, you know that.'' Matt assured her again as they walked to the check in to drop of their suitcases. They dropped off their suitcases and walked to the security.
She was holding his hand as they walked together and he kissed her on her cheek. Even though he was a bit nervous about how the flight will go, he was so glad to be here with her.
They went through security and sat down in a restaurant close to their gate to have lunch.
The last week had been a bit stressful with trying to get everything together to go on this holiday, but now they are just excited.
Soon it was time to leave and hand in hand they boarded the plane.
They sat down in the plane, Matt at the aisle and Gabby in the middle. It was only a short flight so she did not mind too much.
''You okay sitting like this?'' Gabby asked concerned, Matt getting a bit annoyed.
He knew she meant it well though and even though it was a bit annoying that she kept asking, he knew it was because she was concerned about him.
''I am good.'' He smiled and she laid her hand on his hand, carefully. She laid her head against his shoulder as the plane took off and she soon fell asleep against him. It was only about a two hour flight and he put on some music, hoping that he could fall asleep soon as well. Closing his eyes he tried to fall asleep as well, waking up as Gabby's leg fell sideways against his leg. Sitting up again he woke her up as well now.
''Sorry.'' She said worried but he kissed her on her cheek.
''It's okay.'' He assured her, getting up to stand in the aisle for a second then.
''I am really sorry Matt.'' She told him again, worried she hurt him.
''Don't feel sorry, it is fine, you did nothing wrong.'' He assured her as he sat down again and holding hands they listened to music together until their plane landed in New York.
They had some time between their flights and they walked around for a bit, Matt stretching his leg but sat down then in a little bar near the gate they would have to get their next flight.
''First cocktail hmm?'' Matt laughed as Gabby ordered.
''Well, we are on holiday…and I am only going to have one.'' Gabby smiled as he ordered a beer and they sat down on a small table with view on the landing and start track, seeing the planes land and take off.
''I remember you said you were going to have one…and then I had to carry you home…that was only half a year ago Gabby Dawson.'' Matt laughed as she stirred through the ice with a straw.
''I know…I know. But the rest of the cocktails will have to wait to Bermuda.'' Gabby nodded with a smile. She remembered that night. She only wanted to have one or two, but it had been fun at the bar, and he had been so sweet for her. It was only a few days before the accident.
''What are you thinking about?'' He asked as she had been silent for a bit, looking into her drink.
''Just looking forward to being with you this week.'' She smiled.
''It is going to be great.'' He promised again and she nodded.
They finished up their drink and waited at the gate for their connecting flight to leave. Even though they could have gotten a connecting flight, Matt was glad they had the layover as he could move around a bit now and his leg was getting sore.
Getting on the second flight, which was just over two and half hour and as they landed, they got off board quickly and their suitcases. They got a taxi from the airport to the resort and even though both of them were tired, they were in awe as the resort looked so nice. It was right at the seaside, on the cliffs with its own beach in a little bay.
Tired, but finding it so beautiful, they walked to the desk and checked in. Getting their key they made their way over the resort to the room.
''We could have gotten help with the suitcase.'' Gabby said, Matt struggling with walking over the cobble path with the suitcase.
''Nah it is fine.'' Matt assured her.
''But Matt-''
''You can't keep asking these things, we are on holiday.'' He assured her again with a smile and they were at the door of their holiday home. He held the keycard in front of the door then and opened the door. They were on the cliff in front of the beach, the balcony looking out over the beach and the other small house was a bit further up the cliff, so it was perfect for a romantic time together.
There was big bed in the middle of the room, with a modern bathroom to the side and large doors towards the balcony they had seen on the picture.
Tired from the travel, Matt and Gabby fell on the bed.
''I think we will manage here.'' He smiled and Gabby nodded with a smile. They sat up again and Gabby opened the door to the balcony.
She walked back to the bed and sat down beside Matt.
''Your leg okay?''
''Hey, we are here, so nothing to worried about it anymore.'' He assured her and kissed her, getting up to stand on the balcony again then and she walked towards him, sitting down beside him.
It was so beautiful and even though it was mostly dark, they could still see the waves crashing on the beach. He laid his arm around her and they sat down on one of the sunbeds there.
''It's gorgeous here.'' She smiled, so happy to be here with him. Looking over the gorgeous beach, let up by some torches from the restaurant down there to the see, they smiled.
After that all had happened, she was sure that this was what they needed, so amazing.
Wrapping his arms around her, he looked over her shoulder and kissed her in her neck then.
''Alright, I got to get up...'' Matt said then, getting up as he was getting sore, walking to the bathroom to take some painkillers as he wanted to still have a nice night with Gabby. Pulling his shirt off he felt the heat coming from his skin and threw the shirt aside.
''I know you don't want me to ask…so…'' Gabby walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around him now, kissing his neck and pulling him around, dragging him to the bed and pushing him down.
''Gabby…'' He just laughed softly as she laid close to him, caressing over his chest, his arm, hoping he would feel better soon.
''I love you.''
''I love you so much too.'' Matt said to her, as they shared a kiss, laying together on the bed, the waves crashing on the shore and with the summer breeze blowing inside. It was going to be a great week and exactly what they needed after this shit time, they were sure of that.
They had only grown stronger, and now was the time to enjoy that together.
So they arrived in Bermuda and their romantic getaway is about to get started! I hope you liked this chapter and please let me know what you thought and hopefully till next chapter! Thanks for reading.
