Matt was massaging Gabby's feet as she stared at her engagement ring. Almost 2 hours ago Matt asked her to marry him, and Gabby still couldn't believe it had really happened. Once returning to Chicago, Gabby didn't have expectations about her relationship with Casey, she remained silent for almost six months while she was pregnant. Of all the things that could happen, Casey asking her to marry him wasn't one Gabby had on her mind.

After Gabby said yes to Casey's question, they got out of the bathtub and went to the bedroom, where they made love. They took a few minutes to find the best position, and they even laughed as maneuvering to do it. They were happy to be in each other's arms, realizing that they had the same connection in bed.

Gabby pushed her hips against his as she listened to Casey's moans, however, Gabby felt Casey was holding back, which led her to take a few seconds to reassure him he wouldn't hurt her, only then he let it go of his fear, and rolled his hips behind her without hesitation.

They reached the climax almost at the same time... a few minutes later Casey went to the bathroom when he returned he lay down at the end of the bed before he put on his underwear. Gabby was lying on her back, head resting on the pillow as she had a sheet covering her breasts and lower parts...

"Did you like the ring? we can exchange it- ", she interrupted him.

"No, I loved it, you chose rightly...", she said with an honest smile. "It's beautiful, babe...".

"Why were you so serious before?" he was afraid she had changed her mind about his proposal.

"Sorry, sometimes bad thoughts come over... the future... I'm afraid...again...", she replied gazing at the ceiling as she wiped a tear rolling down her face.

Touching her thigh, "Gabby...", he sat down, and they locked eyes. "We're in this together, don't forget...," he stroked her thigh, seconds later he squeezed it.

"I know ... just promise me that if it comes to a choice, you'll save Ben-", her words choked with a mix of feelings.

"Hey...", he laid down on his side next to her, supporting his head on a hand, he used his other hand to cradle her face. "We won't get to that point, okay? You and Ben will be fine, believe me... ".

Gabby nodded, "... I don't know what I would do without you, Matt Casey...", she ran a hand through his hair.

"I love you, everything will be fine, I promise you...", he smiled at her, and leaned over to kiss her.

Seconds later, he used his tongue to open her mouth, and welcoming his tongue ignited a fire on her. They kissed lazily for several minutes when Casey decided to pull the sheet down from Gabby, then he started to massage her breasts. Each second they kissed more passionately, next Gabby slid Casey's hand down her body and placed it on top of her mound. Casey smiled into their kiss and slid two inside her, which made her gasp, with her hand on top of his, guiding the rhythm.

Pulling away his face to watch her, Casey saw her biting her lips and eyes shut, it was delicious torture having his fingers inside her. He kissed her again on the lips, dropping his head he licked and sucked her nipples.

Every minute that passes Gabby's breath gets heavier and her moans louder...

"Don't stop...", she abandoned his hand, and let him do all the work while concentrating on not having an orgasm so quickly. Casey knew that she wouldn't take long.

"Turn on your side...", he pulled out his fingers as she did what he asked to. In that position, Casey slid his shaft in her from behind.

"Oh fuck... how I missed this...", Gabby uttered through her teeth.

"I missed being inside of you, baby... I missed all of you...", he spoke up as grinding against her.

Turning her head, they kissed passionately...


A few days later...

"When you two are getting married?" Severide asked as leaned against the footboard of Casey's bed, his arms folded.

"Soon... at least it's what I want...", Casey declared from his seat.

"Gabby is insecure, you think?" Severide knew Casey would marry her now if he could, but thinking better they had a lot on their plate right now.

"No, it's not that. With her condition, planning a marriage on top of it probably is not a good idea to overwhelm her. She is not against the idea of getting married soon, her mother though asked us to give it more thought...", Matt crossed his arms over his chest.

"Yeah, maybe she is right, but I would support you two getting married soon...", Severide gave his opinion.

"Why would you think that?"

"I mean, you two are happy, having a baby together, everything you wanted. Why wait? I don't see a reason, and Stella agrees with me... She would be happy to help Gabby to plan something...".

"You're right, I can't wait to be her husband again...", his smile widened. "I love her, Kelly... It always has been Gabby for me...".

"I'm happy for you two... Ben is lucky to have you two as parents...", Severide stoop up, walking over to Casey, "You're gonna be a great dad...", they shook hands.

"Last night, I had a kind of a crazy idea, and I would like to run it by you...I-", a knock on the door stopped Matt's next words.

They saw Foster through the glass, she waved as gave them a tight smile.

"I talk to you later...", Severide spoke.

Nodding, "... okay, you have some cigars? we could later, you know...".

"Of course...,", Severide squeezed his shoulder, "... tonight...".

Severide opened the door, after leaving, Foster came in.

"What do you want, Foster?"

Dropping her eyes, "Look, I-I apologize for that day, I never intended to offend anyone-".

"But you did, Foster, and differently from Gabby, I took it to the heart-" narrowing his eyes at her.

Staring at him, "Brett is my friend, and I'd do anything to not seeing her get hurt... your sentimental seemed genuine-", Matt cut her off.

"Stop, if you came here to give me a lecture, you are wasting your time. So let's get to the point, I don't own you anything, I love Gabby and that is not up for discussion, you hear me?" His stance was steady.

Looking past his shoulder, "Yeah sir".

"I don't care if you say anything of me behind my back, however, I take it differently when it's about Gabby...", he stated sternly.

"I'm sorry, you are right, so excuse me...", she looked up briefly at him before walking out.

Scrubbing his face, Matt took a deep breath... he was tired of Foster bullshit.


Three weeks later...

Gabby and Matt were watching a movie in Matt's apartment, they were having some popcorn...

They had seen the half of it when...

"What are you doing?" Gabby threw some popcorn into her mouth.

Matt frowned nonchalantly, "I'm not doing anything," he said after getting caught staring at her a few times.

Gabby peeked at him for two seconds and turned her head back to watch the movie. "What have you done?" she sipped her orange juice.

"I don't know what you are talking about", he shrugged and he kissed her cheek.

"If I call Severide, he'll tell me what I need to know, so spit it out...", Gabby smiled as she had her eyes fixed on the TV.

"Hey,...", Matt put his arm around her shoulders. They locked eyes, "I had a crazy idea...".

Gabby raised her eyebrows, "What is it, Matt?"

"I want us to buy a house-", Gabby interjected.

"You can't be serious, we just got engaged-", Gabby moved on the couch to have a better look at him.

Cradling her face, "I know, I know, I told you it's a crazy idea, forget okay, please don't stress yourself out...".

Gabby's eyes softened, "Why would you think that? Why do you want to buy a house?"

Matt took her hand in his, as looking at their hands intertwined, "... I thought it would be a good idea to have the nursery ready for Ben and a place that both of us could call home...".

After all, it wasn't a crazy idea, caressing his cheek, "I love you, and I love that you are truly ready for us to start a life together...".

Matt gave her a peck on the lips.

"I'd love to have everything ready, but I think I can't choose our house so quickly, I want us to choose wisely, okay?"

"You're right, I'm sorry...".

"Don't be... I have something to make you feel better, I talked to my mom and she agrees with me, we should marry before Ben gets here...".

Matt's eyes widened, "Are you serious?! I-I don't, I mean, I love you, I love your mother...", he said between kisses.

Gabby laughed at him, "You better...".

They kissed for a couple of minutes..., "Let's set the date...".

"Two weeks, it's good for you?" Casey couldn't wait to tell their friends.

"Yeah, it gives me time enough to buy my wedding dress, I won't lose my chance to look a beautiful bride...".

"You are always beautiful, babe...", they kissed over and over... forgetting the movie...


One week later...

Firefighters from 51 and other companies were battling a fire for long two hours in a commercial structure with apartments above. The fire spread rapidly, what had everyone committed to fighting the heavy smoke and fire... with other chiefs officers around, Chief Boden didn't know what to do with the information he just received from Camilla...

Gabby had been admitted to the hospital 15 minutes ago due to intense lower abdominal pain, in her 37th week of gestation, her skin was pale, tachycardia of 110 beats/min, and the fetus with bradycardia...

Watching the building on fire and most of his men inside of it, fearing Matt gets himself hurt on his way out, Chief Boden decided to let him know as soon as he comes out of the building.

While at the hospital...

Urgent surgery was indicated, her abdominal pain was caused by the ruptured artery. The gravid uterus compressed the arterial rupture causing far less bleeding, though after the baby delivery that could change... Through a midline incision, the doctor commenced the cesarean section...

30 minutes later...

Running towards Gabby's mother, "Camilla, where is Gabby? The doctor said anything?"

She was weeping, "No, no, I'm worried, Matt...".

"She is gonna be okay...", he hugged her. "She has to... we'll be seeing her and Ben soon, trust me...".


What are your thoughts? Gabby is gonna survive? Ben?

Tell me...
