Chapter Seventy-Three
Getting Ready for a Swim

Casey Primary Suite – They decided to wait another hour and a half before going into the pool with the hopes of their boys being fast asleep when they want to go take a swim, and their plan worked like a charm; shortly after giving Matteo and Noah another bottle, they ended up falling asleep in their arms. But now, they are currently in their nursery as they take a nap; after which, they are going to be taken care of by Camila for a while. That's due to the fact that Matt and Gabby are going to be outside with their friends taking a swim, before coming inside so that they can take a nap of their own; the husband and father being positive that Gabby is going to get quiet tired once she's finished swimming. But he was more than okay with that, especially since it was going to come with getting a chance to spend some time with his beautiful wife wearing the sexy bikini that she's currently wearing for him; something that he most certain knows already, as he walked into the bathroom clad in nothing but his tight boxers (which always turn Gabby on).

And that was why he was in the midst of wearing them, because he wants to turn Gabby on; he wants to take to her for a minute, and just celebrate the fact that it's both her birthday (and that they don't have to keep hiding that they're pregnant). That being due to the fact that they told their friends shortly after finding out themselves. But now that they did that, Gabby was actually starting to have second thoughts as to whether that was a good idea. I mean, what if they loose the baby; that means that a whole bunch of people are going to be sad, rather than just the two of them (and their sons). And that's what Gabby was thinking about as he dreamy husband walked into the bathroom, clad in nothing but his boxers, as he got ready to give her a bit of pleasure today; along with a preview of what he's going to be giving her later, when they're alone in bed on her birthday. The father having already planned to give his wife some attention in bed, while her mother watched their boys tonight, which is definitely something that Gabby will enjoy.

Walking up behind Gabby this morning, Matt smirked due to the fact that Gabby's little bikini looked great. "I can only imagine that you like what you see?" Smiling as Gabby asked him that, Matt nodded. "I got so distracted, that I couldn't concentrate on putting my swim trunks on." Gabby laughed as she heard Matt say that, before shaking her head. "More like you didn't want to put them on, because you wanted to come see me instead." Matt smiled, agreeing with his beautiful wife as she said that; after which, he just got nice and close to her so that he could hold her in his arms. Wrapping his arms around her shortly after he moved behind her, Matt smiled as he put his hands on her stomach; putting her hands on top of his shortly afterwards, Gabby smiled as she looked at Matt in the mirror. "Where's Andy?" Matt smiled at his beautiful wife as she asked him that. "He's out in the bedroom." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that. "And are the boys fast asleep in their room?" Matt smiled as Gabby asked him if the boys were asleep.

After which, he proceeded to turn Gabby around in his arms; stepping close to her, Matt smirked due to the fact that he was incredibly happy right now. And that was especially the case due to the fact that she's pregnant with their child. Putting his hands on Gabby's sides, Matt smiled as he looked at her. "Listen, I want to talk to you about something." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, before looking up at him. "What is it?" Moving his hand to Gabby's neck, Matt smiled as he stared into her eyes. "I want you to remember that I'm here for you." Gabby was confused as she heard Matt tell her that, not understanding why he feels like he needs to tell her that. "Why did you just tell me?" Matt sighed as he looked at Gabby, before moving his hands to her sides; after which, he made sure to bring her stomach against his (with the hopes that he doesn't have to spell it out for her). And luckily, he didn't have to. "Oh, you're talking about…" Matt agreed with Gabby as she asked him whether he was talking about her pregnancy.

He then put his hand on the side of her face, before leaning in and kissing the woman he loves more than anything nice and slow. "Gabby, I want to remind you that you will always be my priority; you and our future children will always be my priority, which is something that I never want you to forget." Gabby agreed with Matt when he told her that, before smiling as she proceeded to wrap her arms around his neck. After which, Matt wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled at his beautiful wife. Leaning in, Matt smirked as he gave Gabby a nice kiss this morning; taking things slow with her, Matt smirked as this was really making him extremely happy. After all, what's better than a man and woman sharing a kiss together? Oh, he knows, sharing it when you're naked in bed. Picking Gabby up, Matt smiled as he proceeded to set her down on the edge of the counter, exactly where Gabby wants to be right now. "God, I still can't believe that we're already pregnant with another baby." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt tell her that.

After which, Gabby wrapped her arms around his neck and got close to him; after which, Matt wrapped his arms around her and just smiled while leaving a soft kiss on her shoulder. "Promise me that you stay with me the entire pregnancy?" Leaning back, Matt was confused when he heard Gabby ask him that; after all, it was something completely out of the blue. "Hey, where did that come from?" Gabby took a breath as she heard Matt ask her where it came from, before running her hands down his chest. "I'm just…I'm thinking about how it's risky." Matt sighed as he heard Gabby say that, clearly able to see that she's scared right now. "Do you want to sit in bed for a bit, before we go outside?" Gabby sighed when Matt asked her if she wanted to sit in bed (so they can talk) before they go outside. Biting her lip, Gabby looked into his eyes. "Would you be up for that?" Matt just looked at his wife as she asked him that before putting his hand on her neck. After which, he stroked her cheek with his thumb while leaning in to kiss her softly this morning.

"Baby, of course I am; I'm always up for it, because I love you. That's the only reason that you need for me to be able to sit up here with you." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, before going to hug him again; after which, Matt ran his hand (and wedding band) up and down her back. Picking her up in his arms this morning, Matt wrapped her legs around his waist so that he could carry her to bed; after all, it seems like his girl needs a bit of time with him as they talk. Laying her head down on Matt's shoulder as he carried her in his arms, Gabby couldn't help but feel a bit happy what he's carrying her to bed, as she's more than okay with the feeling that comes with being in his arms; I mean, what wife doesn't want her loving husband to carry her to bed when she needs it the most. And right now, this is one of those times; times where she needs Matt to carry her to bed, and then join her so that they can talk for a moment. And since that's what Gabby needs him to do right now, it's exactly what Matt's going to do; as he wants to make her okay.

He decided to put his swim trunks on before he joined Gabby on their bed, the husband wanting his wife to breathe for a bit before he holds her in his arms; after all, there are going to be times in the future where he's not always going to be there for her. At least, not immediately; one thing that Gabby knows is that he's just a call away, and that he'll come running if she needs him. And that's especially the case when she's pregnant with their children. And if she doesn't know it, then she'll know it after he reminds her of it as soon as he climbs into bed with her. Walking over to their bed while doing up his swim trunks, Matt smiled as he proceeded to throw his boxers into the laundry hamper and just smiled at his beautiful wife as she sat in their bed this morning. "Is it just me, or does my birthday girl look so damn sexy as she sits in our bed right now?" Looking at Matt as he said that, Gabby just shook her head. "Yeah, nice try Mr. Casey." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before coming to sit with her on their bed this morning.

Wrapping his arm around her shortly after joining her on their bed, Matt smiled as he felt Gabby cuddle up to him as they held each other close in bed; at the same time, Gabby laid her head down on his chest and put her hand on his heart. After all, she does want to show her husband that she loves him; and what better way to do that, than by putting your hand on his heart. Turning his head to look down at Gabby, Matt smiled as he bent down and kissed Gabby softly; at the same time, Gabby moved her hand to his face and just started to take things nice and slow with the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "So, a third baby." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that. "Three babies in eleven months." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, just smiling as she actually really liked the sound of that. "I like the sound of that." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife when she said that, smiling at the woman of his dreams. "You worried right now? Is that why you're looking down?" Gabby took a breath when she heard Matt ask him that.

After which, she proceeded to grab his hand and intertwined their fingers; and let's just say that was exactly what Matt wanted her to do. He wanted her to hold him close, and he wants to make sure that she's always happy; not that he really needs to worry about that, as she's always happy when she's in his arms. Looking up at Matt, Gabby took a breath. "I'm just worried that we're rushing this. I mean, three kids in eleven months?" Matt got a bit nervous when he heard Gabby question the fact that they're pregnant with their third child already. "Are you having second thoughts about this? Gabby, if you're changing your mind…" Gabby just looked at Matt when he said that. "I'd understand." Gabby sighed. "Never say that again, because I'm not doing what you're thinking; I've fought so hard to get pregnant, and I'm not giving up." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that. "Good, because I was getting nervous that you would take me up on my offer. I at least want to know if we're having a girl at least." Gabby smiled and agreed with Matt.

Thinking about it, Gabby could really see them having a girl. "Oh, I love the idea of us having a girl." Matt smiled as he looked at Gabby when she said that. "I'm both excited, and scared for when we have a daughter." Turning her head, Gabby looked up at Matt when he said that. "Careful mister Casey, remember that I control the sex while we're pregnant." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that, before holding her close. "Oh, I know that; and I am not going to do anything to screw up my chances at getting some intimate time with the woman I love more than anything in the whole wide world." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, well aware that was the case. "Oh, I know that better than anybody." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that, before wrapping both of his arms around her more; after which, he put his hand on her leg and smiled at his beautiful wife. Bending down, Matt smirked due to the fact that she truly is the love of his life; and the mother of his beautiful children. "I love you Gabby, and I am so glad that we're pregnant again."

Gabby agreed with Matt. "Even if it limits how far you can travel when it comes to business?" Matt was shocked when he heard Gabby say that, as that's most definitely not something she has to worry about. "Hey, look up at me right now Ms. Casey." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, doing just that for the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "Gabby, you are my priority. The kids are my priority. Our future child is my priority. The business is not my priority, nor are business trips. If I have to choose between going on a business trip, or going to an OB/GYN appointment; I choose going to an OB/GYN appointment any day of the week. Gabby, this may be my last chance to get this experience." Gabby shook her head when Matt said that. "I'm not going to say that yet, because I may want to go for another daughter in the future." Matt agreed with her when she said that, before smiling at his beautiful wife. He then bent down, smirking as he gave his wife exactly what she wants right now; a nice kiss from him, as they hold each other close.

"Did I ever tell you that you're the love of my life?" Gabby laughed as she heard Matt tell her that, before leaning up so that she can take things nice and slow with the man she loves. "I want you alone tonight, kids taken care of by somebody else." Matt agreed with Gabby as she told him that, before turning his head and bending down to kiss her forehead softly. "Then maybe we shouldn't take too much time together right now, as that may put our chance of being alone together later at risk." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before moving to wrap her arms around him once last time. Wrapping his arms around Gabby as they held each other, Matt smirked as he kissed her forehead softly. "I love you Gabby." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, madly in love with him too. "I love you too." Matt smiled as they both just took a minute to hold each other, while they (and all of their friends) got ready to take a swim this afternoon; a swim where they're going to have some fun with each other, and just have a great day where they don't work.

Jay & Alex's Primary Suite – She needed a bit of attention from her loving husband before they went downstairs and took a swim, the wife wanting to feel his hands all over her in a way that she won't soon to be able to; that she won't be able to feel while they're taking a swim with each other, and all of their friends this afternoon. And she truly hopes that she won't have to spell it out for Jay, because she wants the message to be loud and clear based on what she's currently wearing a she stood at the end of their bed; as she stands there, and patiently waits for her man to walk into the room. But luckily for her, the wait wasn't long. Walking into his and Alex's room before closing the door behind him, Jay was currently in the midst of reading an e-mail related to something he and Antonio were hoping to start for Casey Police; at least, he was until he heard Alex speak to him. "What do you think?" Jay snickered as he heard Alex ask him that, as she really didn't need to ask him that question. "Do I really need to answer?" Alex smiled at Jay.

"Baby, you look so damn sexy." Alex smiled as she heard Jay say that, before watching as he took off his shirt for her; throwing it onto the ground shortly afterwards, Jay smirked as he walked over to his beautiful wife as she stood at the end of their bed. Putting his hands on her baby bump as soon as he was standing in front of her, Jay smiled as he stepped close to her and then felt Alex move her hands to his toned chest. Running her hands down Jay's chest, Alex smiled as she leaned in and just took things nice and slow with the man she loves more than anything; after which, she wrapped her arms around his neck and just smiled due to the fact that she loves him so much. There's just something about him that always makes her happy, and that's never going to change. Kissing Jay again, Alex smiled as she just took things nice and slow with the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "I love you." Jay agreed with Alex as she said that, before smirking as he started to feel her run her hands down his chest so that she can help him today.

Going to grab his belt, Alex smirked as she wanted it to come off as soon as possible. "Oh, does somebody want me to take off my pants?" Alex agreed with Jay as he asked her that, before starting to undo his belt for him; after which, she went to take it off while smirking at her husband. Going to grab his pants for her shortly afterwards, Jay smirked as he went ahead and took them off; after all, the faster his pants are off, the faster he can get his wife in bed. And that was exactly what Alex is about to tell him, as she stepped close to him, put his hands on his muscular chest, and then leaned in to kiss his neck softly. Moaning as Alex did that, Jay kicked his pants (and socks) off before picking her up in his arms; afterwards, he wrapped Alex's legs around his waist and turned around to sit at the end of their bed. Slipping her close to him shortly afterwards, Jay smirked as he proceeded to grab her bra so that he can take it off. "Do it baby, do it now." Jay agreed with his beautiful wife, before going to take off her bra for her (just like she wants him to do).

Picking Alex up again shortly afterwards, Jay smirked as he carried her to bed so that they can enjoy some time with each other in bed; after all, that seems to be what Alex wants anyways. Carefully carrying her to their bed, Jay smiled as he felt Alex kiss him slowly. "So, I can only assume that we're going to be getting in bed with each other for a bit?" Alex smiled as she heard Jay ask her whether they're going to be getting in bed with each other for a bit, as they most definitely are. "Yeah, I need to get my hormones under control." Jay agreed with Alex as she told him that, before smiling as he proceeded to carry her to their bed; after which, he opened the covers and just smiled as he went to lay her down in their bed. Smirking as she looked up at Jay, Alex couldn't help but be extremely happy over the fact that Jay was currently looking down at her; and that he was about to give her a kiss that she so desperately wants. But first, he climbed into bed with the woman he loves; that way, it's much easier to kiss her when it comes to them being in bed together.

Laying down next to Alex in bed, Jay smirked as he got close to her and then put his hand on her stomach; the stomach where their beautiful daughters are still growing today. Stroking her stomach with his thumb as he thought about that, Jay smiled as he leaned over Alex and stared down into her eyes for a moment. "Only four months until we meet the girls." Alex smiled as she heard Jay say that, before putting her hand on his neck; after which, she leaned up and kissed him softly. Just taking things nice and slow with her dreamy husband, Alex couldn't help but be incredibly happy over everything that she has in her life. Her loving husband, an incredible job, amazing friends, and an even better future ahead of her; a future that's going to include her and Jay's adorable daughters, Mackenzie, and Olivia. "I can't wait to meet them." Jay agreed with his beautiful wife as she told him that, smiling at her. "And what do you think of raising the girls in California?" Alex smiled as she heard Jay ask her what she thought of them raising their girls here in LA.

"I love the idea, because it's going to be great weather all the time." Jay agreed with his beautiful wife as she told him that, before smiling as he bent down and kissed her once again. Just taking things nice and slow with the most important woman in his life, Jay smirked. "Good, because that's exactly what I want for the rest of our lives." Alex agreed with Jay when he said that, well aware that's the case. "Hey, I have no doubt that's the case Jay. I promise." Jay smiled as he heard Alex say that, before bending down so that he can kiss her once again. "What do you think of the fact that Gabby's pregnant again?" Alex laughed as she heard Jay ask her that, before pushing him over onto his side; after which, she rolled over onto her side and got close to the man she loves. Slipping close to him, Alex smiled as she wrapped her arms around him and then held him close. At the same time, Jay put his hand on her arm and smiled at his beautiful wife; the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "Honestly, I'm happy for them."

Jay smiled as he heard Alex say that, as he felt the same way. "Yeah, I feel the same way; especially after hearing why Matt is scared to loose another kid. The things that they've gone through, the things that we've gone through to get to these points in our lives." Alex agreed with Jay when he said that, before getting close to him and slipping her legs in between his; after which, she wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled as they held each other close this afternoon. "I'm so glad that we decided to leave Chicago. It was the best thing that we ever decided to do, as it means that we can have this life together." Jay agreed with his gorgeous wife as she said that, as he feels the same way. "Oh definitely, and I am more than happy over the fact that I have you in my life." Alex smirked as Jay told her that, before running her hand down his chest. She then decided to wrap her arms around his torso and just smiled at him. "This is where we belong, and I think we both know that." Jay agreed with Alex when she said that, before smiling at his gorgeous wife.

Putting his hand on her stomach, Jay couldn't help but feel like the luckiest man in the entire world that he has this life with Alex; and there is nothing that he wouldn't do to protect it, as this is the life that he wants to live for the rest of his life (which is something that Alex is already well aware of). And honestly, he's just enjoying this quiet time that they're having with each other as he wrapped his arm around her (as much as he could); leaning in to kiss her shortly afterwards, Jay smirked as he gave her some sweet kisses on her lips as a way to tease her (which it most certainly did). "God, you are such a tease." Jay smirked as he heard Alex say that, well aware that she sees him as a tease. "You say that all the time." Alex agreed with Jay when he said that, as she was well aware of that fact. "Because it's true! You tease me too much." Jay smirked as he heard Alex say that. "So, is this you telling me that you don't want me to keep doing what I do?" Alex shook her head when Jay asked her that, as that's not what she was trying to tell him right now.

"Okay, you took that out of context. That was most certainly not what I was trying to tell you." Jay smirked as he heard Alex tell him that, as he didn't truly believe her. "Oh really? And how am I supposed to believe that?" Smirking, Alex proceeded to roll over so that she can get out of bed. "You're just going to have to trust the woman you love, because you know that your wife is always right." Jay laughed as he heard Alex tell him. "If it rhymes, it must be the truth." Walking over to her dresser this morning, Alex smirked as she knew that Jay was staring at her right now; after all, she is currently topless. Turning around to look at him, Alex smirked. "Am I going to have to take off my underwear on my own? Or are you going to come help me get changed?" Getting up out of bed clad in nothing but his boxers, Jay smirked as he got ready to help Alex get changed for the pool; after all, what's better than helping your gorgeous wife change into a sexy bikini (which is going to look great on her while she's pregnant with their child).

Just making his way over to Alex, Jay smirked due to the fact that he was more than ready to do this right now. Walking right up to her today, Jay smirked as he put his hands on her hips and then brought her against his chest; after which, Jay picked her up in his arms before setting her down on top of the dresser. Leaning in shortly afterwards, Jay smirked as he moved his hand to Alex's neck and started to take things nice and slow with the woman he loves more than anything. "God, I love you so much." Alex agreed with Jay when he told her that, smiling as she felt the same way. "Listen, I need to get changed. Are you going to help me or not?" Jay laughed as Alex asked him whether he's going to help her (or not), which he most certainly will. "Oh, we're going to help each other get changed for the pool, that's a fact Ms. Halstead." Alex smiled as she heard Jay refer to her by her marital name, loving it more each and every day. "Can you believe it's already been almost seven months since we got married in Las Vegas?" Jay smiled.

"Talk about a busy seven months. First we move to Hawaii, then to Los Angeles, and we get pregnant." Alex agreed with Jay when he told her that, smiling as she brought him close to her; after which, she put her hands on his chest and smiled as she stared into his eyes. "And there's nobody that I would've rather had by my side as we went through this together." Jay smiled as he heard Alex tell him that, as he was so happy that's the case. "I feel the exact same way." Alex smiled as she heard Jay tell her that, before kissing her again and just starting to take things nice and slow with the man she loves. "I love you." Jay agreed with Alex as she said that. "I love you too. Now, how about we get you changed for the pool?" Alex laughed. "Sounds good." Jay smirked as Alex said that, before going ahead with helping his wife get changed for the pool; after which, she did the same for him.
