The response and readers for this story really have been going down and i am wondering if you are still interested in the story or if I should shorten it up and bring it to an end soon?
2 months later, December, Christmas Eve.
Matt and Gabby walked into her parents house for dinner. As Gen was still at work till 8 they had agreed to wait until she was here too. Her mom and Laura had been busy in the kitchen all day and Matt and Gabby put even more gifts under the fully stocked tree. They were so excited to festive Christmas all together and it would be the first Christmas for Gen with the family. As she had joined their family in January, she was almost here for a year now.
''Wow, Eva, you look amazing!'' Gabby smiled as Eva showed off her new dress, proud.
Gabby helped out in the kitchen for a bit while Matt played soccer with Diego in the garden, Antonio being the referee that obviously let Diego win and Antonio walked back inside, Gabby getting ready to leave.
''Are you going to drive through a drive through? Cause I am starving.'' He smiled then and she smirked.
''I am going to pick Gen up right now.'' Gabby said as she walked to her purse.
''She can't drive herself?'' Antonio asked a bit surprised as Gen was already 17.
''She doesn't have her driver's license.'' Gabby said then as she searched for the car keys in her bag.
''Dad says I can start with my driver's license soon!'' Eva said proud and Gabby nodded.
''Gen wants to start soon but we are going to teach her ourselves, to save some money.'' Gabby said then and Antonio nodded.
''Yeah, that will save you a bit.'' Antonio said, knew that it was getting a bit tight for them as they wanted to help Gen pay for college.
''With college coming up, we really need to save up.'' Gabby said then and Antonio walked a bit closer.
''Hey - uhm. I will pay for Gen's books for the written exam. She can pass them on to Eva then but the sooner she can start the better, they could even learn together.''
''Oh Antonio, that would be so great!'' Gabby smiled and she hugged her brother.
''Yeah, they can learn together, that might be fun for them and will save us both time.''
''That sounds like a plan, I will go pick her up now.''
Gabby walked out to pick the girl up at work and the rest of the family was waiting for dinner.
''Do I need to help?'' Matt asked Gabby and Antonio's mom but she shoved him out of the kitchen.
''If you are just as bad as Antonio I can't use you!'' She teased him and Matt smirked.
''Okay, no I am terrible too.'' He admitted and sat back by the table. All of them were starving as it was so late but they also wanted to wait for Genevieve to join them for dinner. Eva was already keeping the chair beside her free so Gen could sit there.
''I am so glad I don't have to work on Christmas eve.'' Eva smiled then.
''You barely work anyway.'' Diego teased her, causing him to get an angry glare from Eva.
''I worked six hours last week!'' She said then, ''I bet Genevieve doesn't work much more.''
''I bet she does, but you are busy with school Eva and after school activities so it is fine.'' Antonio nodded, knew the girls were very different. Eva was busy with high grades and her sports while Gen was busy getting the necessary grades and liked her job.
Gabby and Gen joined as well then and they sat down for dinner.
Eva and Gen immediately started talking and
Even though had had a rocky start, they were getting closer now and becoming really good friends. They kept chatting during dinner while the adults discussed sports and politics mostly.
After dinner Antonio and Emmanuel Dawson got up to smoke cigar as they always did.
''Let's go for a cigar, hm?'' Antonio said then and Matt nodded and wanted to follow him and Antonio turned around then.
''You also going out for cigarette Gen?''
''I don't smoke anymore.'' Genevieve smiled then, proud and Antonio nodded.
''That is great, now I still have to get your dad to stop smoking cigars with me.'' Antonio said, immediately looking a bit worried as he had said dad but Gen just nodded.
''As if I am the bad influence.'' Matt said fast and they walked outside, Eva en Gen going to her room - probably to gossip.
''She calls us mom and dad but we tell her not to because it makes us feel old.'' Gabby smirked as she helped her mom and Laura clean up, Matt and Antonio and her dad still standing outside. It was so cold and she was glad she didn't have to stand outside. Matt walked towards the kitchen window and knocked on the window.
''Need any help?' He yelled loud but she shook her head, still thought it was really sweet he asked.
After sharing a few more wines they went home with a cab, both of them had drunken wine and it was slippery on the road because of the snow, so neither of them dared to drive home. All of them had had such a great Christmas together with all the presents. Genevieve had gotten a lot of make-up and clothes and Gabby and Matt had gotten and envelope.
Matt opened the envelope that was for him and Gabby and saw a big stash of dollar notes and that meant so much for them as the family knew they could use the money well. It was not like they were living really tight and were having such a hard time but they could really use the money now that Gen was almost off to college. She put it in her purse and kissed him on the cheek, happy about it.
At home they wanted to go to bed when Genevieve wanted to say goodnight.
''Thank you so much for the best Christmas I ever had.'' Gen said then, hugging them both and were glad that she had a great Christmas, probably for the first time in her life. Tomorrow they would go eat with Christie and Violet.
Matt and Gabby walked to their bedroom as well then.
Gabby grabbed the envelope from her purse and started counting the money, surprised by the big amount of money her parents and brother and wife had given them.
''Wow...this is so helpful. I can't believe they gave us this much.'' Gabby smiled then as she put it away to bring it to the bank soon so they could put a part of it on the savings account for college for Gen and some on their own accounts.
Matt nodded and took her hand then.
''Gabby...let's have a baby, okay? I feel so stupid for wanting to wait and all I want is a baby with you. Do you still want to have a family? I am so sorry I kept postponiing and -'' He said and she kissed him.
''Yes, yes! I want to have a family.'' She smiled then. ''I still do.''
They kissed again and he shook his head.
''I am so sorry, I just felt like...we ha dot wait and now I realize that might have been stupid because we will figure it out, even with a baby.'' He smiled then and she smiled, tears forming in her eyes then.
''I am sorry I got so angry at you before. I am just concerned that we would wait long now...and then it wouldn't work and that we couldn't have a baby.''
''Hey, no worries. We are going to try and I am sure next year Christmas, there will be a little baby with us.'' He smiled then and she nodded.
She unhooked her bra then and kissed him again and he took her in his hands, caressing over her body and laid his hand on her breast, kissing her again. She started undressing him too and he put his arms around her again, kissing him and laying on top of him, laying his hand on her breast again as they undressed each other further, so in love with each other.
Slowly his hand slid down from her chest into her panties then.
''Let's try for a baby...baby.'' She moaned then and he nodded.
''Yes...I love you!''
''Í love you too.'' Gabby said softly as they continued making out, loving each other so much and excited to start a family.
NOTE: They had Christmas all together and after the whole dinner and great times Matt and Gabby changed their minds about the future and are hoping to have a bigger family together.
Next chapter: Matt has a hectic shift at work but has his family to come home to.
