NOTE: Thank you so much for your response on the previous chapter, this is the last chapter before we will have a bit of a time jump again - not too much but at least a bit again. I hope you will enjoy this chapter as well and please let me know what you think and what you think about jumping forward again.


A few days later

Matt walked back into the apartment after a construction job. Aaron immediately came running his way, his blonde curls bouncing up and down.

''Hey you monkey...'' Matt smirked as he lifted Aaron up. Aaron smiled at Matt with the little dimple in his cheek as Matt had as Matt carried him along to the kitchen and put him down against as he kissed Gabby.

''It smells amazing.'' He smiled then after kissing her, leaning over her to look what they were going to have for dinner.

''Gosh, you mind was with me for 2 seconds and then it was good again.'' She smirked teasingly, poking him in his side and he kissed her again.

''Can you get the kids here for dinner?'' She asked then and Matt nodded.

''Ofcourse, my lady in charge.'' He said, bowing his head in a silly way before walking to the living room. Kylie jumped up and hugged his leg because she was so happy to see her daddy again, while Christon kept chasing Aaron, pulling his hair then.

''Don't do that Christon!'' Matt said strict. Even though he wasn't sure if the boy understood he was hurting his brother, he did looked at his dad with big eyes now, a bit scared.

''Say sorry to your brother.''

Christon looked at Aaron.

''Sowwy.'' He mumbled with a smile.

''Like you mean it, Christon.'' Matt said then and finally Christon pouted at his brother.

''Sowwy.''

Aaron had his hand on his blonde hair as he walked to the kitchen, walking to his mom there, burring his head against her leg as he started to cry now, trying to get some extra sympathy from his mom.

Matt came walking into the kitchen then with Kylie and Christon and they sat down by the table, Aaron settled down again as well and after having dinner, but instead of having a peaceful night, the havoc started when the twins had to go to bed.

''No!'' Kylie said then and she threw aside the the jammies.

''You have to get your jammies on.''

''Noohoo!'' She said and Matt picked up the pants again and wanted to help her get it on and she started kicking her legs, trying to get away from him. Even though he knew what battles to pick, he knew she had to go to bed. He hoped that the boys were being a bit calmer and kinder to Gabby.

''Kylie, come on.'' He said friendly then, hoping that would help. ''Here, just step in.'' He said as he held the pants in front of her so she just had to step in but she shook her head then.

''We will just get your jammies on and then you can get your pacifier and mommy will read you a story.'' Matt tried to persuade her into no longer throwing a fit to go to bed. But then she suddenly ran away.

''Nooohooo!'' Kylie said as she ran away, Matt chasing her with her jammies.

''Come here - Kylie Casey come here right now!'' Matt said. For a toddler of 2 and a half years she was very fast. He chased her down, almost sliding over the wooden floor in their living room when she walked outside of the apartment, onto the hallway.

''Kylie, get back here!'' He said as he walked into the hallway as well, Kylie waving at their neighbor. Their neighbor looked a bit weird at the toddler standing there in just a

''I am sorry about that.'' Matt said, scooping up the toddler in his arms and hurrying back inside.

Kylie giggled cheeky now and when Matt carried her back to her room, Gabby was waiting there.

''Hmm, Kylie, why don't you have your jammies on?'' She asked the little girl teasing, the toddler laughing now and suddenly cooperating with getting her jammies on now that her mommy was helping her and Matt looked a bit defeated as Kylie walked with Gabby now so they could read a story all together.

Matt smiled as Gabby was reading them a story, looking from the doorway and they put all the kids in bed then and after the whole havoc they had caused today, it wasn't long before Gabby and Matt were in bed as well.

Matt was fast asleep, one arm around Gabby when somebody grabbed his hand and started to pull his hand and he opened his eyes, Kylie standing by the bed, crying and holding her little stuffed sheep. He sat down on the edge of the bed.

''Hey, what is wrong little girl?''

She walked his way, looking so sad and scared and he lifted her on his lap.

''Did you have a nightmare?'' He asked concerned as he tried to comfort her while Gabby woke up as well. She sat up and looked as Matt was comforting Kylie.

''Mommy!'' Kylie said then and she put her hand in Matt's face, almost pushing him out of the way as she climbed over the bed to Gabby then, Gabby hugging her.

''Sleep here.'' She said then.

''No, you are going back to your own bed.'' Matt said strict, Gabby tilting her head at him and he shrugged, signing her that this was what they had talked about and they wouldn't let the kids sleep in their bed as they didn't want it to be a habit for them.

Kylie started to cry again and finally Matt nodded and instead of him having his arms around Gabby now as they were falling asleep now, Kylie was asleep in her moms arms.

They were almost asleep again when the door to the bedroom suddenly opened. Matt opened one eye as he sat up, both of the boys standing by the end of their bed then and climbing on the bed then, walking over the blanket towards them and sitting down then, trying to crawl under the blanket as well.

''no, no guys, this is not your bed, this mommy and daddies bed, go back to your own bed.'' Matt said then but the boys didn't do anything, instead just pulled the blanket down.

''Come on, back to your own beds.'' Matt said again and he got up from the bed, ready to lift the boys out when they started to scream angrily. He knew that if he wanted to send the boys away, he had to send Kylie back as well and she had finally settled down, asleep next to Gabby. The boys climbed back on the bed and with a big sigh he turned off the light again, all three kids sleeping in their bed. Even though it was something they never allowed, there nothing to be done about it now.

Matt just laid his head down, all of the kids moving towards Gabby more and as Christon was suddenly making his way towards Gabby as well, Matt got his foot in his face and Gabby saw it in the dim light. She smirked softly as they tried to crawl closer together.

''Tomorrow they are sleeping in their own bed again.'' Matt said softly, all three toddlers sleeping between them.

''Definitely.'' Gabby said Kylie was pulling her hair slightly in her sleep and Matt leaned on his elbow, over the kids, kissing Gabby goodnight once again.

''Well, not the idea, but they are cute.'' Gabby smiled then, looking at the sleeping toddlers. As much havoc as they caused, they were also so cute.


NOTE: The triplets were causing a lot of havoc together, both before dinner and after dinner when it was sleepy time and even when they were all bed and Gabby and Matt finally thought they could sleep - not a chance!
