Surfing Lessons

Honolulu, Hawaii,

"Hey beautiful," A soaking wet Matt plopped himself down beside Gabriela in the sand.

"Don't you dare get me wet," Gabriela opened one eye and warned him.

"Who me?" Matt smirked, "Are you sure you don't want to try surfing? When else are you gonna be in Hawaii?"

"Well I can't be worse then you," She sat up, "I'm surprised they gave you a surf board."

"Oh now it's on," Matt took her hand and pulled her up, "Lets go get you a surf board."

Half an hour later and Gabriela had surfed circles around Matt.

"Okay," Matt walked back onto the beach, "Have you been taking secret lessons or something?"

Gabriela chuckled, "Not actually."

"What does that mean."

"Oh alright, I guess you've suffered enough."

"Why do I think I've been tricked?"

"Because when I was a kid I spent a lot of summers Australia."

"Oh, what a great time to tell me. And how by chance did you get that opportunity?"

"My Abuelo, Carlotta's father has a summer home there."

"It would have been cheaper to go there," He appeared to be a little annoyed at her.

"Augusto and his wife Christina are there with the kids. They invited us but I wanted something a little more private." She kissed him and caressed is face, "Your not upset are you?"

"No." Matt smiled adoringly, "I can't wait to see what you surprise me with next. Where else have to been?

"Other then Spain and Australia?"

"Yeah."

Sitting down on her towel underneath the canapé she got comfortable.

Matt sat beside her wrapping an arm around her

"I've been to England, Scotland, Italy, Greece, France, the Netherlands, Croatia, Germany, China, Brazil, Chile, The Dominican Republic, Aruba, Jamaica and New Zealand."

"Wow," Matt gasped, "All of them with family?"

"No, I went all by myself," She playfully punched him, "Of course I went with family."

"Owe," Matt faked injury.

"Oh," Gabby rolled her eyes, "Poor Mattie."

"A kiss would make it feel better."

"You're lucky I love you," Gabriela happily obliged to his request and then settle her head on his chest, "So I know our trip to Europe was your first time, is there anywhere else you wanna go?"

"Back to our hotel room," He whispered in her ear.

"Matt I'm being serious."

"Seriously. Australia would be nice when the twins are a little older, maybe even next summer, they'd be almost three then."

"Almost three? Can you believe that, it seems like only yesterday I-" Gabriela stopped. She gave birth to the twins only a day after her father had died.

Matt stroked Gabby's hair and rubbed her arm, "It's okay to think about him sweetheart."

Gabriela gulped, "You know what I just realized. I'll always associate Serena and Michael's birthday with my father dying. When they get older they're want to know why I'm sad and…and I can't tell them the reason; it'll wreck their birthday and…"

"Ssh, sweetie," Matt soothed, "We don't have to worry about that now. How about we go back to the hotel and get something to eat. Are you hungry?"

"Now that you mention it I am kind of hungry."

"Then it's settled," Matt stood and offered a hand to help her up, "We'll go get something for lunch."


The sun shinning in her eyes through the blinds Gabriela blinked her eyes and rolled over to curl into Matt; she was disappointed to discover however that Matt was not sleeping beside her.

Now fully awake she got up and stretched; and it didn't take her very long to realize that the shower was on.

Quietly slipping into the washroom she slipped into the shower and wrapped her arms around Matt's wet body.

"Gabby," Matt's body responded to her touch.

"I always loved it when you were wet…."

An hour later Gabriela and Matt were drying off from taking a shower.

"So now that you know I can surf do you want to go after we have brunch?"

Matt put on a pair of shorts and looked at her, "And let what happened yesterday happen again?"

Gabriela threw a sock at him, "Oh, you're not mad that I'm good." She was almost one hundred percent sure he wasn't embarrassed because she was better then him, she just needed to be sure."

"Good? Sweetheart you're amazing." He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her, "How many summers did you spend in Australia?"

She shrugged her shoulders, "Every summer I think accept that one summer we were in China and when I was five we were in Brazil."

Matt laughed. "Ah, is that where the picture is from?"

"Antonio showed you?" Gabriela gasped.

"Of course. What kind of brother would he be if he didn't?"

"The nice kind," She mumbled.

"Yeah well I think it's cute."

"Oh yeah me being buried in the sand by Antonio and Auguesto is cute," She smirked, "I'll have to know only my eyes, mouth and nose weren't covered in sand."

"Uh-huh and Antonio said you helped Carla and Freddie do the same to him one summer."

"That was his long overdue payback. Now if you'll let me finished getting dressed I can show you how to surf."

"Bring it."


"Matt," Gabriela looked up from an app on her IPhone, "If we want to try for another baby, the next four days would probably be our best chance."

"Way ahead of you babe; I already made reservations at the restaurant downstairs for tonight at seven."

Gabriela eyed him suspiciously, "I thought we agreed that was going to be for our last night because it's so fancy and expensive.

"We did but yesterday I looked at the calendar and-"

"On my phone?"

"No, on mind."

"You have-"

"Sweetie," Matt attempted to calm her down, "Face it I know you better then you know yourself."

"Yeah but….I'm not to sure I like you knowing too. It's something personal and I-"

"Alright sweetheart;" Matt knew when to back out of a fight, "I don't know about you but I don't want to start an argument right now."

"Neither do I." She sat down on the end of their bed, "So how long have you known?" She wondered.

"Since Europe. Well that was when I found out I was right. I had speculations before."

"So, when we're you planning on telling me about our dinner reservations tonight."

"Oh I knew you'd tell me." He smirked.

Gabriela reached for a pillow and threw it at his face, "Quite smug aren't you?"

"Face it sweetie, I know you better then you know yourself.

"Okay," Gabriela closed her eyes, "What I'm I thinking?"

Matt didn't answer he only laid down on the bed and pulled her on top of him and kissed her.
