Chapter 16
So this is the final chapter, I hope you like and leave a review!
"Morning!" Shay said after Gabby opened the door.
"Morning!" Gabby smiled.
"Hmmm someone is in a good mood..." Shay added entering into the house.
"I am always in a good mood, Shay" and Gabby closed the door behind them.
"Not at all, I know you..." Shay walked into the kitchen putting over the counter some bags, Gabby followed her path.
"Shay..." Gabby crossed her arms over her chest.
"Did you two have sex?" Shay asked half seeing her while she was putting out of the bags coffee and some donuts for them.
"No, we didn't have sex..." she answered quickly, turning around to get a bottle of milk in the fridge.
"Wow...", Shay laughed loud. "I'm taking this as a yes..." Shay sat at the counter.
Gabby stopped in front of the fridge opened, she thought Shay knew her better, there wasn't any chance to lie to her. Slowly she turned from her spot and tried to hold her smile.
"Awesome! That's my girl!" Shay replied. "A wild sex night was everything you needed...", she bit her donut.
"Don't overdo... it was sweet and caring... and..." Gabby spoke almost embarrassed.
"And..." Shay drank her coffee.
"Okay... it was a little wild when we did it in his car..." Gabby told her looking around but at her.
"What? You two had sex in his car? Wow... I knew you guys were missing each other, however I never thought the sex tension was at this level..."
"I don't know what happened one minute we were discussing in front of Molly's, in other we were undressing each other in his car..." Gabby drank her milk.
"I am happy for you... you two don't function right separated..." Shay said looking at her.
"We are not together, Shay..." Gabby stated shyly.
"How... you just confessed you slept together..."
"Yeah, but we didn't talk about our relationship status, I mean I told him we wouldn't talk about that, I just wanted to have a good night with him and we had, that's it..."
"I can't believe..." Shay said disappointed.
"Don't be mad... okay..." Gabby got up from her seat and approached Shay. "I love that you are cheering for us... I am getting there... we are... right?"
Shay nodded with her head and they hugged. "I love you and my goddaughter!" After a few minutes they pushed away.
"We love you too... Oh... We are shopping today... I don't know why Casey thinks is daughter is running out of clothes. So he gave me some money to buy some again... You have a good taste... I'd love your company. What do you think?"
"I'm in... you know I love shopping..."
"Good..." they smiled.
At night
"Hey..."
"Hey..." Casey said surprised; he had a beer in his hand when he opened the door of his apartment. He wasn't expecting her visit tonight. She was wearing high heels and a large coat, what was strange, because outside the weather was hot. She stayed quite for a few seconds just staring at him. He wondered what she was thinking and why she was there. "Are you okay?" he asked breaking her gaze at him.
"Yeah, yeah, I am fine... and you?" her hands were on the pockets.
"I'm good... and happy seeing you here..." he gave her a large smile.
"Thanks..." she smiled to him too. Again she stayed quiet just looking at him.
"You... want entering for one minute..." he motioned to his apartment.
"Oh no... I'm good... I was just passing by... you know..." she spoke unsure.
"Hmmm okay... we... can stay... here..." Casey told her and took another sip of his beer. Something was off and he didn't know what. They continued to stare at each other in silence. Casey looked her down and up sometimes.
"I am little thirsty... You could-"
"Yeah, of course... you can get in..." he motioned for her entering his apartment again and this time she accepted. She stayed in the living room while he went to the kitchen. Five minutes later he returned and was in shocked when he found Gabby only wearing a beautiful lace bra and panty matching color.
"Wow..." the glass of water was in his hand. Gabby's belly was prominent and for Matt she was more than beautiful. At the moment she felt little shy, she never imagined doing that. She was expecting at least to make a good impression on Matt. "You are beautiful... I..."
"Did you like it?" she asked him. They remained stuck in their places.
"I loved it... I..." he was stuttering and Gabby thought that was so cute.
"Are you still thirsty?" he asked her. She said no and he drank her water. Then he moved in her direction and she stepped forward too. They met in the middle of the way and kissed each other hungrily. After a few seconds holding her face to him, his hands started to roam her body, up and down on her back, every now and then massaging her butt.
"Matt..." she whispered in his ear. Suddenly his phone started to ring in the kitchen, one, two, three times. "Your phone..."
"I don't care..." and continued kissing her. Again his phone rang.
Gabby stopped kissing him and pushed away. "Pick up the call... I can wait, really... maybe is important..." He looked at her. "I'm not going anywhere..." she gave a peck on his lips.
"Okay... don't move... don't move..." he said serious. When he grabbed his phone on the counter, it stopped to ring. There were four missing call from Otis and one message, when he was reading it, he heard a cry coming from the living room. Matt run to the living room.
"Oh my God... Oh my God..." Gabby was covering her body with her coat.
"What is it?" he asked observing she was alone and she pointed to the door, which was open. He walked to the door and looked outside and found Otis on the aisle. "Otis, what are you doing here?"
"I'm so sorry Casey, I didn't... I was calling you, you forgot we would watch Hawks game in your house? I just texted you that I was coming and... I'm sorry..." Matt really forgot it.
"It's okay, Otis. I didn't lock the door and forgot about the game. You know... Don't worry... just don't tell guys you saw Gabby-"
"Of course... It was just one second and I get out of you apartment, I didn't see anything..."
"Okay... Look... can we guys find another place to watch the game... I'm just busy-" Casey said to him.
"Sure... I'll call Severide... I'm sorry again..."
"Thanks, Otis..." Matt watched Otis leaving, then he walking into his apartment.
"Gabby... Gabby...?" he didn't saw her anywhere.
"Hey..." she came out of behind of the wall that divided the living room and the kitchen. "He is still outside?"
"No, he left... I totally forgot we are supposed to watch a game today here..."
"Oh... I'm leaving-", she was wearing the coat, but he cut her off.
"No way... you are staying," he got close to her, "...he and the guys can find another place..."
"Matt..." she tried argue with him.
"Gabby... you are staying, ...we don't need... you know..." he was referring to have sex, "...I want you here with me..." their lips were a few inches apart.
"I'm sorry, but I am so embarrassing right now... I need to go home..." she said firmly. He looked at her for a few seconds.
"Can I give you a ride?" he tried another approach. Maybe, he could stay at her house.
"No, I am driving, it's better this way, okay? Good night!" she finally said and kissed him on the cheek. After Gabby left his apartment he punched the wall. He was upset with the situation.
Two days later
Five hours before the end of the shift at 51, truck 81, squad 3 and ambo 61 were called to a scene where some homeless got stuck in a burning warehouse. Attempting to save in the last minute one of the homeless, Matt got hit on the head and stayed unconsciousness for a few minutes inside of the ambo 61. When they arrived at the hospital, he was conscious and was murmuring some words and Shay was sure that she heard him calling Gabby's name sometimes.
He was examined, he had a little concussion, nothing severe, but he needed to stay in observation for a couple of hours, possibly stay overnight. Shay, Boden and Severide were the first to visit him. They tried to not tired him, however he couldn't sleep either.
"Shay, please-" she cut him off. She knew what he would ask to her.
"Casey, you can't hide it from Dawson... You know her... that girl is something else... She made pretty clear that she doesn't admit lies... you know..."
"I am not saying you should lie, just to not tell her that I am here..., after I get released, I call her, okay?"
"Maybe, it's the best decision," Severide tried to argue with Shay, "...Remember: she is pregnant... She doesn't need some stress right now..." Shay shook her head annoyed.
"Do you agree with them, Chief?" Shay gave one more shot. Boden looked at them.
"I don't..." he answered.
"See..." Shay stated.
"Gabby deserves the truth, not saying it to her, maybe can actually stress her..."
"I will think about, okay?" Matt told them.
When Gabby got advanced in her pregnancy, she was transferred to a table job at Fire Department. Normally she worked from 7 a.m until 5 p.m, Monday through Friday. She made great friends there and she was happy because they were liking her work. Sometimes they had given her the task to instruct some new EMTs. She arrived that morning at the Fire Department building and she heard someone talking in the elevator about one of the 51 firefighters who got injured. Quickly she asked who was and she heard it was Matt, she tried to stay calm and call Matt, but he wasn't answer his phone, she tried to call Shay and Severide, however happened the same thing, they didn't pick up. Then she decided to got to the hospital.
"Please, I need to know if Matthew Casey is here..." she spoke to the attendant.
"Gabby..." Shay called her.
"Shay... where is Matt?" she asked almost crying.
"He is fine, okay? You are pregnant, stay calm..." Shay asked.
"How I am supposed to do that, Shay? I called him and you and Severide, and none of you picked up the phone..."
"I'm sorry..."
"Why didn't you call me to let me know?" Gabby was already crying.
"Because he is okay... he needed to rest, you couldn't do anything... and he..." Shay was terrible in lying.
"He asked you to not tell me, right?" Gabby pushed Shay to confess to her. Shay stayed quiet. "Where is his room? I need to see him, please..."
"Okay, I take you there, Severide is making him some company. Our shift ended, but we decided to stay with him..."
Shay slowly opened the room door and both Severide and Matt looked at the girls.
"Gabby..." Matt spoke. Shay closed the door, Gabby remain next to Shay.
"Don't Gabby me, Matthew Casey... Right now I won't discuss with you, but after you leave this hospital, you can't wait... you're gonna hear me..."
"Everything you want, baby..." he said giving her a half smile. Gabby tried to resist the urgency to run to him, but she couldn't, he loved that man. Then she got close to his bed and he reached her waist and brought her to sit on his bed, he pulled her to him and she hugged him. Severide and Shay left them alone.
"I love you, don't do this to me again! Are you listening to me?" her head was resting on his shoulder. He nodded.
"I love you forever, I never will leave you, I'm not going anywhere..." he said.
"What the doctor said to you?" she looked at him.
"They want to observe me for a few hours... maybe stay one night here..." one of his hands was resting on her waist.
"Matt... don't hide me anything... if you they want you here, it's serious..." Gabby was nervous.
"Believe in me, I'm okay... See I am here talking to you... just a little headache, but I'm good..." he tried to assure her.
"I'm locking you at home, you know, you are not more running into burning buildings..." she said between cries and laughs.
"Yeah?" he smiled, "I will be your prisoner? I think I like this idea..."
"You better..." she caressed his head and kissed him on the lips a couple of times.
Ten months later
"Hi, Mrs. Casey..."
"Hi, Amber... my husband is already home?" Gabby started to work a few weeks ago, she chose staying at Fire Department to have a chance to have more time with her daughter every night. She couldn't think staying 24 hours away from her.
"Oh...he is arriving right now... He is parking his car on the driveway..." Amber saw him through the front window of their Casey and Gabby house.
"Ah... okay... I thought he was playing with Cassie, I don't like to interrupt their time together, because that I called you..."
"She is taking a nap... I made her a bottle, Mr. Casey can give it to her, I know he loves to do that..." Gabby and Amber laughed.
"Yeah, he gets every chance to be with her..." Gabby said. "I have to be back to work, Matt will give your check, thanks Amber..."
"Thank you, Mrs. Casey... bye..."
"Hi... Amber..." Casey greeted her.
"Hi, Mr. Casey..."
"How is my girl?" he asked as he put his bag down on the floor. That was always his first question when he came to home and Amber was taking care of Cassie.
"She is sleeping...I made her a bottle, you can give it to her after she wakes up..."
"Thanks, Amber..." he took of his coat and put over the couch. "I'll check her..." he always did that, Amber was used to that.
"Okay... I will finish folding her clothes and I'm going home..."
"Right, after you finish you can come to receive your check... Thanks, Amber..."
"You're welcome, Mr. Casey..."
A few hours later
"I'm home..." Gabby announced.
"We are in the kitchen..." Matt shouted out. She took of her coat, boots and put her bag on the couch.
"Oh... what is happening here?" Gabby asked surprised.
"We are making your dinner... right princess?" Cassie was in the playpen laying on her back. She bounced her legs and arms.
"Oh... my God..." Gabby approached Matt and kissed him on the lips. "... Thanks... I'm starving... I love you..."
"I love you too..."
Then Gabby keeled down to take Cassie in her arms. "Hey, my little muffin... how you doing..." Gabby kissed her on the cheeks. "Mommy missed you so much..."
"She missed you too..." Casey spoke.
"You gave your dad a hard time?" Gabby asked her daughter. Cassie cooed graciously. Gabby smiled.
"She didn't like so much her bottle today..." Casey confessed.
"I know... sorry... I love to breastfeed her... but I have to work and everything..." before Gabby returned to work Matt suggested Gabby to take a year off to care of their daughter, but Gabby said now they had a new house, their needed both payments, she couldn't let him pay for everything. Matt just nodded, Gabby knew his thought about her working.
"How about you taking a shower? In ten minutes I finish here..."
"Okay..." Gabby gave her daughter one last kiss and put her in the playpen. Matt observed Gabby leaving the kitchen with a sad face. He knew he should keep his mouth shut.
They had dinner almost in silence. After they finished, Matt washed the dishes while Gabby took Cassie with her upstairs. When Matt walked into their bedroom, Gabby was breastfeeding Cassie, Matt was overwhelmed with that scene. Cassie's eyes were glued on Gabby's face. They had a armchair in their bedroom, Gabby was sitting on it. Matt knelled down beside the armchair.
"She is so beautiful..." both Matt and Gabby were looking at Cassie, her eyes were heavying, half closed.
"She is..." Gabby said. Cassie had Gabby's features, brown hair, however her eyes colors were from Matt.
"I'm sorry for earlier..." he confessed.
"It's okay..." he looked at him. "I feel guilty sometimes..." Gabby stated.
"Don't... you are amazing, our daughter loves you, I love you... we're gonna make this work, okay?" he said.
"Okay... I love you... you want to have a burping time with her?" Gabby finally smiled.
"I'd love to.." he answered and took Cassie in his arms. Gabby stayed sitting while Matt was standing with Cassie against his chest.
"Tomorrow is Saturday... what are we doing?" Gabby asked trying to light the mood.
"Cassie and I, we are taking you to go shopping and later having lunch..."
"Wow... you two decided that?" Gabby asked excited.
"Yeah... we had a talk after I came home... we think our best person in the world deserves a awesome day..." Gabby stood up and faced Matt.
"I couldn't ask for better husband than you Matthew Casey and you gave me my little muffin, and I love, love you for that..." she kissed him on the lips.
"You're my everything, Gabby... never forget it..." he kissed her on the lips. "I'll put her on the crib..."
Matt returned a few minutes later to their bedroom, he took off his t-shirt, Gabby was wearing her underwear and Matt old t-shirt while she laid on the bed.
"You think my awesome day can start tonight?" Gabby asked seductively. Matt smile wide to her.
"You're making me get you pregnant again..." he laughed as he crawled to her.
"Maybe..." He hovered her, looked her up and down.
"Okay, then..." they kissed each other and he took off her t-shirt, then her underwear...
The end!
