Chapter Thirteen
Brett couldn't believe what she was looking at, "Casey, how did you...what is…"
Casey laughed before he took the shocked Brett into his arms, "Sylvie, breath."
Brett shook her head and pulled the two tickets to Bora Bora out of the white envelope Casey had given her, "Casey, how can we afford these? You just bought the house not too long ago."
"Brett, I bought these the morning I was going to propose to you. I wanted the trip to be an engagement present, but now after everything that's happened, I think we should use the time we have off and get away for a little while."
Brett stood there shocked staring at the first-class Bora Bora tickets in her hand, "You didn't answer my question, how can we afford this?"
Casey sighed before he looked around and noticed that everyone had gone inside leaving them to discuss this alone, "Brett, I know we haven't really had the chance to discuss this yet, but we don't have to worry about money."
"What are you saying?" Asked Brett as she placed her hands on her stomach that had three little babies kicking inside of it.
Casey smiled as he reached out beside Brett's hand and felt the babies, "Brett, I have money invested into several businesses. We won't have to worry about money."
"Why haven't you ever told me about this?" Asked Brett as she felt anger start to build up from him not being completely honest with her."
"I didn't think it was a big deal."
Brett sighed, "Well, it is to me, Casey. I want this to be a partnership with one hundred percent honesty on both sides."
Casey nodded completely understanding what she was saying and remembering how he used to feel when Gabby didn't tell him things, "Okay, I'm sorry. You're right, I should have told you when we discussed financials last month."
Brett smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck, "Thank you. I'm sorry too I shouldn't have brought this up here right after you surprised me."
Casey gave her a small kiss on the lips, "Well, now that is over what do you say to a vacation with me?"
Brett giggled, "Well...I have never been to Bora Bora."
"Good because we leave in the morning." Replied Casey with a sly smirk.
Brett gasped, "In the morning? Casey, that gives me no time to get anything ready. And, what about the babies? Am I even allowed to travel this late in the pregnancy?"
Casey placed his hands on Brett's shoulders to try and calm her, "Brett, will you relax, please. I don't want your blood pressure to go up."
Brett nodded in agreement, "Okay."
"Thank you, and don't worry about the babies. The last day you were in the hospital, I secretly spoke with Will in the hallway and asked him if it would be okay for you and the babies to travel, and he said it was fine as long as you don't overdo it."
Brett looked at Casey like he was crazy, "You really planned all of this out, didn't you?"
"Well, I had some help. Kidd and Foster were a big help in helping me pick out maternity beach clothes for you."
Brett laughed just thinking about Kidd and Foster going into a maternity store and picking out swimsuits and dresses.
"I love you." Whispered Brett before she wrapped her arms around Casey's neck and kissed him.
Casey smiled so big you would think his face was going to crack, "I love you too!"
Both returned to their party not long after that.
Brett was so happy and excited to go on vacation with Casey.
"Text us when you all land tomorrow." Said Kidd as she and Foster walked Brett and Casey to his truck.
Brett smiled before she leaned over to hug both girls, "I will, I love you both. Thank you so much for everything; today was amazing."
"Eh, today was nothing just wait until the baby shower." Yelled Foster causing practically everyone within earshot to buckle over with laughter.
Brett and Casey were exhausted by the time they got home and packed everything. Casey suggested they watch a movie to unwind after packing, so Brett suggested they watch one of her all-time favorite movies 'Pretty Woman'. Casey laughed when Brett jumped up and down to him agreeing to watch it with her. But, as excited as Brett was to watch the movie with Casey, she fell asleep on his shoulder not five minutes after the movie started.
Casey smiled as he looked down and saw her softly dozing on his shoulder. 'I couldn't ask for a better mother to my children. I can't wait for you to be my wife, Sylvie.' Thought Casey before he finally put his head back on the couch and fell asleep with his arms wrapped around Brett and their unborn children.
Casey woke up right as the movie was ending, so he gently shook Brett to wake her up. He wished he could just pick her up and carry her to bed like he used to, but with his leg still in a cast, it was kinda hard.
"Babe, come on let's go get in bed. We have to be at the airport in a few hours."
Brett sleepily nodded at Casey's words before she slowly got up off the couch and shuffled to their bedroom; where she quickly changed into one of Casey's larger CFD shirts and climbed into the bed. It wasn't long before Casey followed her to bed and was falling into a deep sleep with her laying on his chest.
The next morning around five am, both of their alarms went off telling them it was time to get up and get ready so they could make it to the airport in time for their flight.
Foster warned both Brett and Casey that comfort was the number one objective to be worried about since their flight was over seventeen hours with two different switch overs. So, Brett wore a simple fluffy pullover with a pair of slip-on boots, a comfy t-shirt, and her favorite pair of stretchy jeans. Casey wore a pair of Adidas pants with a long sleeve CFD shirt and tennis shoes that would work with his casted leg.
"Are you ready, babe?" Asked Casey as he sat in his seat and connected his seatbelt.
Brett looked over at him from her window plane seat and smiled, "I'm always ready when I'm with you."
