Gabby's POV
2 months later.
I stand in the doorway of the second bedroom to our new apartment which will soon be the nursery,as I watch Matt sit on the floor of the room with his tools spread out all around him putting together the crib. His back is facing me so he doesn't see me, or at least I thought he didn't." Are you here to help or just watch?" He chuckles never turning to look at me.
"Definantly to watch." I chuckle back." How did you know I was here?"
"Babe I always know when your in the room, even when your quiet." He glanced over his shoulder to give me a quick smile before turning back to his task at hand." Besides I saw your reflection in the windows." Matt nods his head to the tall windows overlooking the patio.
"Oh you think your slick?" I tease sticking my tongue out.
"I saw that." Matt chuckles back still not facing me.
"I better get some better curtains for those windows then." I say walking over to Matt leaning down kissing the top of his head.
"No way." Matt says spinning around to face me still sitting on the floor." I want to be able to see him from our room." He places his hands on my large belly that was eye level to him before he glanced out the windows to our room that was on the other side of the patio that we looked straight in to.
"So." I smile looking back down at Matt placing my hands on his cheeks getting him to look back up at me." You know its a he?"
"Just a hunch." He smiles before looking back at my belly placing a kiss over my shirt." But I don't have a preference."
"Neither do I." I kneel down to be level with him." But I know one thing."
"Oh what's that?"
"You are going to be an amazing dad."
"A scared dad." Matt frowns placing his forehead against mine." I've dreamed of the day I would become a dad, but I'd be lying if I didn't say it scares the hell out of me."
"Tell me about it." I chuckle causing Matt to pull back meeting my eyes." But we have each other to get through the challenges."
Matt's grin grows wide." I knew there was a reason why I loved you?" He teases before kissing my cheek.
"Oh and here I thought it was my good looks and huge belly." I joke places my hands on my belly.
"It's all of the above." He says serious before placing his lips forcefully on mine as we slowly lay down on the floor." This can't be com table for you." Matt pulls away from our kiss propping himself up on his elbow.
"It's not." I scrunch my nose as I move on to my side nuzzling my nose into his neck." It hurts my back."
"Why didn't you stop me or say something." Matt says concerned as he rubs my lower back." I won't get offended."
"I would." I say lifting my head to face him brushing my nose against his." I like kissing you too much."
"You better." Matt pecks my lips with his." Your going to be kissing me for a very long time."
"You better promise that." I say placing a hand on his cheek." Now that I have you I can't lose you."
"Your not going to lose me, I promise." Matt looks me in the eyes then kisses my forehead." Come on let's get you up."
"No I'm fine, just like this." I grab his hand pulling back down so I could snuggle back into his neck." Your nice and comfy."
"Mmmm am I?" Matt looks over my awkward position as I place my hand on my lower back." How bout you take a seat in your new rocking chair over there." Matt points across the room as he pulls me to a seated position." You can watch me finish the crib."
"One can't resist watching you work." I say breathless getting to my feet." Shirtless maybe?" I whisper in his ear seductively.
" Funny babe." Matt chuckles as he helps me to the rocking chair." You and I both know this crib won't get finished if that happens."
" Hmm maybe true." I shrug my shoulders." But if I was shirtless."
"Gabby!" Matt chuckles kissing my head." I think you have officially lost your mind."
"It's the hormones." I look at him with a raised brow." Some people claim insanity, I claim hormones."
Matt shakes his head laughing as he kneels down infront of me and starts talking to my belly." Your mommy has officially lost her mind, but I only love her more for it." He looks up smiling to me.
"Oh." I place my hand on my belly." Baby is kicking." I say grabbing Matt's hand placing it under mine." Can you feel that?"
"I can." Matt looks up at me with an incredulous look that made my heart race." That is incredible." He says causing the baby to kick and flutter more.
"I think he likes the sound of your voice."
"Or just agreeing with me that his mommy is crazy." Matt teases.
"Hey." I chuckle smacking his arm.
"Hey there little guy." Matt places his hands on other side of my belly lowering his face in closer." Your mommy is not crazy one bit, but she is crazy beautiful and I'm crazy mad in love with her, just like I am with you." Matt looked up winking at me quickly as my tear filled eyes watched in awe of him talking away to our unborn child.
"He is mad crazy for you." I say running my hand through his hair referring to the baby doing practically back flips listening to Matt's voice, or so it felt." And so am I." I place my hand under his chin pulling his attention back to me." Marry me?"
Matt just looks at me confused like I have lost my mind." Gabby." He grabs my hand pulling my ring up to eye level." We are getting married, I already asked you."
"I know." I shake my head waving my hand." I mean now, marry me right now?"
"Now, right this second?" Matt still looked at me confused.
"Yeah, tomorrow, or the next day, right away." I say looking him in the eyes the entire time.
"Gabby." Matt sits up moving closer to me." There is no rush, I'm yours I promise."
"That's not it." I sit forward bringing myself closer as well." When you asked me to marry you, you said we were doing thing untraditional which I'm fine with , but I want us to be married when the baby comes."
"What about having all your family here, and a big traditional wedding?"
"I don't care about that." I shake my head." The people that matter the most will be there, whenever it is. I just don't want to go another day not being your wife."
"You don't have to ask me twice." Matt kisses my lips softly." Mrs. Casey."
"So?" I look at him with a raised brow." Does that mean you'll marry me right away?"
"It does, there is nothing more I want then to call you my wife." He smiles brushing a piece of my hair back." Tomorrow we have shift, but the following morning at 8:01 am. I'm all yours to marry."
"Really?" I say excited grabbing placing my hands on his cheeks.
"Really." He smiles back." Because I love you, and can't wait to make you my wife."
"I love you too." I say laughing and crying at the same time as I place light kisses to his lips." You better get this crib up because in two days this is not the bedroom you will be spending your time in."
"Oh is that right." Matt chuckles getting to his feet." I best get to work then." He kisses my head then walks back to his pile of tools." Two days." He winks at me.
"Two days." I smile back as I rub my belly rocking in the chair watching him work.
