Chapter Eighty-One
Taking it Easy for the Night


They just said goodnight to their friends and family, the couple having decided that they want to take some time alone; take some time with each other, and just be romantic with each other. After all, Gabby didn't get this opportunity last year; she didn't get a chance to have a night of birthday romance with the man of her dreams. Rather, she was alone on her birthday; and she was craving her husband. And she's so glad that the two of them are alone now. And that's especially the case because of what she's wearing for Matt, something that's almost guaranteed to get her a bunch of attention. And that was when Gabby heard Matt (and Andy) come into their room. "Thanks again Camila, for all your help tonight and tomorrow." Camila Dawson agreed with the father when he said that, well aware of the fact that he appreciates just how much he wants to be alone with his wife. "I hope you guys have a nice time together. Have a good night, and see you in the morning." Matt agreed with Camila as she said that, proceeding to close the door behind him as he walked into his room. Turning around so that he could look at Gabby, Matt couldn't help but be quite surprised at the sight.

The sight of his beautiful wife wearing some very sexy lingerie, which he very much plans on trying to take off at some point; yet, she's doing this for him on his birthday. "Oh, I am so not worthy of you." Gabby was confused as she heard Matt say that. "Now, why would you say that?" Matt smirked as he heard Gabby ask him that, continuing to make his way over to the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world; after which, he proceeded to get really close to her and put his hands on her sides. Smirking at his girl, Matt brought her against his chest and smirked. "Because it's not even my birthday, yet you decided to give me some attention." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, well aware that's the case; I mean, she is wearing lingerie for him right now. But that's what she wants to do. She wants to give her husband attention, so that he gives her attention in return. In her opinion, you need to give some to get some; and that most definitely is exactly what she plans on doing with her husband tonight. She plans on giving her husband some love and expects him to give her some love in return. "You have to give some, to get some. Right?" Matt smirked.

"I guess we can say that way." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, before going to grab the bottom of his shirt; after which, she started to tug it up with the hopes of him taking it off. Getting the message loud and clear as to what his beautiful wife wants him to do for her tonight, Matt smirked as he went ahead and proceeded to take off his shirt for Gabby; after which, he threw his shirt away and watched as Gabby grabbed his belt for him. Tugging Matt close to her in the process, Gabby smiled as she's ready to just have some fun with Matt. She wants to feel him make love to her, and she wants him to take things nice and slow with her; and that's all she wants him to do for her tonight. "Baby, I want to do a few things tonight." Moving his hand to Gabby's neck, Matt smiled as he leaned in and kissed her softly; after which, he bent down and kissed her neck softly. "Care to tell me what some of those things are?" Wrapping her arms around Matt's back as he did that for her, Gabby couldn't help but smile over the fact that he's currently giving her exactly what she wants when it comes to the night of her birthday. "Oh Matt." Matt smirked as he heard Gabby say that, well aware she's loving it.

After which, he proceeded to move his hands to her hips and just ran his hands up and down her sides. After which, he leaned back and put his hands on her arms. Moving her hands to Matt's chest after he put his hands on her arms, Gabby smiled as she looked up at her loving husband; after which, she leaned in and proceeded to kiss him softly. He then wrapped his arms around her, smiling due to the fact that this is perfect; and it's everything that she wants right now, she wants her husband to give her a nice night of romance. And that's what he plans on giving her tonight, a nice night of romance. "God, I love you so much…and I am so glad that we got this news today." Gabby laughed as she heard Matt tell her that, as she felt the same way; she's so happy that they're pregnant again, but she's even happier that it's not twins. "Think maybe we can wait to get sexy with each other, because I'd…" Stepping close to the woman he loves, Matt smiled as he put his hands on her neck and leaned in to kiss her softly. "Hey, take a breath." Gabby agreed. "I already know what you want to do Gabby, you want to take some time to really talk about this." Gabby took a breath and sighed.

"Is that okay? I know that it's my birthday but…" Grabbing Gabby's neck again, Matt smiled as he leaned in and kissed her again; after which, he took things nice and slow with the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "Hey, take a breath and relax. We're going to have fun with each other; and we're just going to take it easy." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, running her hands up and down her loving husband's shirtless chest; after which, she proceeded to grab his pants and smiled. Undoing the button on his pants, Gabby smiled as she wants them to come off; and that's exactly what he did for her. He took off his pants for Gabby, and just let them fall onto the ground. "Listen, how about you get in bed? And I'll be right there?" Gabby smirked as Matt said that, well aware that he's going to be putting his clothes in the laundry. "Actually, no it isn't…." Matt got worried when she said that. "Is it the baby?" Gabby then proceeded to take off her bra and smirked. "Ah, that's better." Gabby then gave it to Matt. "Laundry."

She then turned around and proceeded to walk away in her little underwear, which shocked Matt. "Oh, you bitch!" Turning around, Gabby looked at Matt. "Do you want me to put that bra back on?" Matt got scared when Gabby said that. "No." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that. "Hamper, bed. Now." Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, getting quite scared; after which, he proceeded to go ahead with doing as he was told. Carrying their clothes to the hamper, Matt just smiled as he was ready to get in bed with the woman he loves; that way, he can hold her in his arms as they take it easy tonight (like she wants). Turning around after putting their clothes in the hamper, Matt smiled at Gabby. "Do you need me to do anything for you?" Gabby smiled as Matt asked her if she needed him to do anything for her, and she doesn't; all she needs is for him to come join her in bed. "All I need is for you to come join me in bed." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as she told him that, ready to get in bed with his beautiful wife.


He was finally ready to get in bed with Gabby: his teeth were brushed, he put some cologne on, and he was clad in nothing but his boxers; which is exactly what she wants from him. She wants her man to smell good, and be clad in nothing but his boxers. And since that's what she has from Matt today, she's happy. She's happy to have him on his way to bed, so that they can cuddle to each other. Plus, it means that the day is coming to an end. Today was such a long day, and she really feels tired. She doesn't get why she was so tired, but she can only think that it's due to the fact that she's pregnant. Another reason that she may be tired? That may be Andy, who is a ball of energy. Walking back over to the door to their room, Matt proceeded to close it; locking it afterwards, Matt made sure that everything is okay. Afterwards, he proceeded to make his way over to Andy so that he can say hi to him. "Hey buddy." Bending down in his boxers, Matt smiled as he proceeded to rub his head. "You like your bed, don't you?" He then kissed the top of his head.

"Careful, if you keep kissing somebody else, then I may not want to give you birthday kisses." Matt agreed with Gabby. "I'm just happy that he's here." Gabby sighed (while also agreeing with Matt) when he said that, well aware of the reason why he just said that. "Do you want to talk about that? Jay texted me and filled me in on everything." Matt sighed as he heard Gabby say that, hating that she's going to get in the middle of this. "I really don't want to put you in the middle of me and your brother." Gabby shook her head when she heard Matt say that, as that's not what he's doing. "Hey, I don't ever want to hear you say that; because you most certainly aren't putting me in between anything. Matt, please come here and join me in bed baby." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before smiling as he came to get in bed with her. "We only talk about this on the condition that we also talk about the baby." Gabby agreed with Matt when he told her that, as she wants to do that too. "Oh, we need to talk about that for sure; for many reasons."

Matt was confused as he heard Gabby say that. "Uhm…" Taking a breath, Gabby then just said what she was thinking. "I don't know if I want you to go on business trips while I'm…" Shaking his head, Matt proceeded to get in bed with the woman he loves. "Hey, let's not even think about that baby." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, before watching as he proceeded to get close to her; after which, he closed the covers and wrapped his arms around her. "Come here gorgeous." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, getting nice and close to the man she loves; after which, she wrapped her arms around him and smiled as they both held each other close. After all, that's what they both want to do right now. They want to hold each other close, as they cuddle up to each other on the night of her birthday. Just getting close to Gabby, Matt smiled as he leaned in and proceeded to kiss the woman he loves more than anything. "I want you to hear what I say, so please listen to me here Gabby." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that.

"I love you, and I want what's best for you. If me travelling is going to cause you stress, then I'm not going to travel. I'm going to stay here, and hold you in my arms; which is exactly what I think you need from me tonight." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, as that most definitely is what she needs tonight. She needs to be held in her loving husband's arms, as they cuddle up to each other and enjoy tonight together. It's all she wants to do. She wants to hold the man she loves close to her, as they relax in bed tonight. "I'm glad that's the case. I was worried that you might have to go on a business trip or something, while leaving me alone with the boys." Matt sighed. "Well, I can't say that I won't have to go on no business trips. But maybe we can do it where it's like one night or something? Can you do one-night trips? It'd basically be like me going out for a night with Kelly." Gabby laughed as she heard Matt say that, as that most definitely is what it'd be like. "Yeah, and me going out with Stella." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that.

"I think that we should actually do that something soon." Gabby was confused as she heard Matt say that, before putting her hand on his muscular chest. "What are you talking about baby?" Putting his hand on Gabby's hand, Matt smiled as he stroked it with her thumb before noticing that she took off her wedding ring. "Hey, where's your wedding right?" Gabby sighed. "I put it in my jewelry box. I just decided to take it off before it hurts. You remember how much it hurt during my last pregnancy." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, well aware that's the case. "I know what you mean." Gabby sighed. "So, I just put them in my jewelry box for now. I hope that's okay?" Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before proceeding to kiss her forehead softly. "Hey, look up at me." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, doing just that for the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "Gabby, I don't want you to be hurting. If you wearing rings makes your hand hurt, then it's the last thing that I want you to do." Gabby agreed with Matt.

She then got nice and close to the man she loves, cuddling up to him some more; at the same time, he put his hand on Gabby's side and stroked it with his thumb. After which, he turned his head and kissed her forehead softly. "I love you so much Gabby, and I don't ever want to see you hurt. So, if you feel like something you're wearing is hurting you, then don't take my feelings into consideration; all I care about is you being okay. If not wearing your ring makes you okay, then I'm okay." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, before turning her head and looking up at him. Matt then proceeded to run his hand up and down her arm. "I still can't believe that it's already happening. It's so fast, but it still feels so right." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, because that's exactly ow he feels about it. He feels like this is the right time. "And this is it afterwards right? We're not having anymore kids after this?" Gabby took a breath when Matt asked her that question, as she hadn't thought about it. "Maybe not for a couple years." Matt smiled at Gabby.

"I mean, I just don't want to make any final decisions. I mean, what if I change my mind in the future about what I want to do?" Matt agreed with Gabby as she mentioned that, because it makes complete sense. "Hey, take a breath and relax baby; I agree and completely understand what you mean. You don't want to risk it for a while." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, really happy that he understands what she's trying to tell him. "I'm glad that you understand." Matt nodded as Gabby told him that, before turning his head and kissing her forehead softly once again. "Hey, of course I understand Gabby. You have to remember who I am. I'm your husband, and I love you more than anything in the entire world; I know what you want, and I understand you better than anybody." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, before smiling as she looked up at the man she loves. "I'm so glad that you're here with me this year. I really did miss you last year." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that. "I missed you too." Gabby smirked and agreed.

"So, what did you so on your birthday last year? I don't think I ever asked you. I mean, I did call." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that. "Yes, you did. I promise that I remember that call. It was one of the few that weren't filled with anger." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, after which he ran his hand up and down her side; putting his hand on her hip, Matt smiled as he specifically put his hand on her stomach. "I promise you that I would never yell at you on your birthday. You're the woman I love more than anything in the entire world, and I never want to hurt you. Heck, the truth is…I was originally thinking of flying down to see you, so that we could try and repair us then." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that. "Who knows, maybe then we would've had the boys sooner." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as she said that, before moving his hand to her back again; after which, he leaned in and proceeded to kiss her softly. "No, we wouldn't have." Gabby was confused as she heard Matt say that. "Why not?"

Matt smiled. "Because I believe that everything happens for a reason. You came into my life at the right time, and things have just fallen into place for us. We have such a beautiful life, and I can't wait to see what's ahead for us. It's going to be so nice, and I can't wait to have three kids." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that. After which, she took a breath. "Matt you'd be okay with three kids right?" Matt just looked at his wife when she said that, shocked that she'd even feel the need to ask her that. "Hey, are you having doubts when it comes to how many kids you want again?" Gabby shrugged. "I don't know. I just…I guess I'm starting to think about the future after what happened this afternoon." Matt decided that this was really a time to listen, rather than speak. "I mean, you promise not to work on my birthday; and then you work. What if you promise our kids to go to an event, and then miss something? I guess that worries me. And the more kids we have…" Matt just looked at Gabby when she said that. "Hey, that will never happen."

Gabby looked down when Matt said that, before feeling him press his lips to her forehead. "I mean that Gabby, because I am never going to forget our kids; nor am I going to forget you. I promise that you and the kids will always be my priority; and I want you to remember that it's going to happen, for the simple fact that I love you more than anything in the entire world." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, before moving close to him again; after which, she put her hand on his face and just started to take things nice and slow with the man of her dreams. At the same time, Matt wrapped his arm around Gabby's back as they held each other close. "I love you so much Gabby." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, well aware that's the case. "I know you do baby." Matt agreed with Gabby as she told him that, before smiling as he continued to take things nice and slow with the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world; little did he know that taking things nice and slow with each other, would lead to them making love.


She was currently laying down next to Matt in bed, the two of them naked under the sheets after having spent the past hour making love to each other on the night of her birthday; and to say that Gabby was surprised truly was an understatement, as she didn't think that would happen. But now that it did, she was quite happy. It was incredible, and there was just something about it that was so special. Maybe it was the fact that it was so spontaneous, or because it's on her birthday. There was just something about it that was really nice, but not as nice as the way she's currently being held by the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. Slipping up behind Gabby in bed, Matt smiled as he wrapped his arm around her and then put his hand on her stomach; after which, he left a kiss on her back…just like he did all those years ago the first time they woke up naked in each other's arms. And still, it feels just as good as the first time. "Well, that was unexpected." Matt laughed as he heard Gabby say that, because that was how he was feeling.

After which, he watched as Gabby rolled over in his arms so that she could get close to him; which is most definitely something that he wants tonight, as he wants to hold his girl close to him. Wrapping her arms around his torso as soon as she was all cuddled up to Matt, Gabby smiled as she cuddled up to him; after which, Matt wrapped his strong arm around her back and brought her body even more against his chest than before. And let's just say that it was perfect, and exactly what the both of them wanted right now; they want to hold each other, while also being naked in each other's arms. "But that didn't mean that I didn't like it. I know that we said that we wouldn't…" Turning his head, Matt proceeded to look down at the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "Hey, look up at me." Turning her head, Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that. After which, he put his hand on her hip and bent down so that he could kiss her softly. Just taking things nice and slow with the woman he loves, Matt smiled as he moved his hand to her neck.

After which, he stroked her cheek with his thumb and just made her feel so special; not that him just holding her in his arms on a daily basis doesn't make her feel special anyways. "Gabby, I love you more than anything in the entire world. And I know you better than anybody in the entire world. I know what you mean by that, and I feel the same way. And that's why I made love to you because it felt right. It felt like the right time for me to do it, even though we both originally said that we weren't going to get intimate with each other tonight. But when it feels right, then it's right…so I did it, and it was perfect." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, as she felt the same way about him having made love to her. "I feel the same way, and I'm glad that we just did that….you were just as good as you were the first time, if not better." Matt smirked as he moved his hand to her leg, before stroking it with his thumb tonight. "And I can say the same thing about you." Gabby smiled, before blushing as she heard Matt say that; at the same time, he smiled too.

Kissing her forehead softly as they both held each other close, Matt smirked due to the fact that the parents are extremely happy with each other right now. This truly is the life of their dreams, and they are extremely happy with one another; and there's nothing more that he wants to do right now, other than just hold Gabby in his arms like this tonight. "Gabby, I love you more than anything in the entire world. And tomorrow, I want to do something with you." Gabby smiled. "This all day?" Matt laughed. "No, I was going to suggest that me and you go out tomorrow…just the two of us. Tomorrow morning, we can take Andy for a walk down the beach; first thing, and then we take it easy in bed with each other. Maybe some more quality time, or we can have the boys with us. All I know, is that I want to relax tomorrow and just hold each other close." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, as she loves the idea he has. "I absolutely love that idea. Just the two of us, holding each other close as we relax in bed tomorrow; after a walk with Andy."

Matt smiled. "I mean, unless you want the boys?" Gabby shook her head, as she doesn't want the boys; she just wants her husband alone tomorrow. "Tomorrow, I want the day alone with you as we take it easy; we can talk more about the baby." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, before smiling as he kissed her forehead softly. "Your wish is my command." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, after which she kissed him softly. Taking things nice and slow with the woman he loves, Matt couldn't help but be really happy that this is what they're in the midst of doing to end their day.
