Hi Readers: I'm back from work, I've had supper and I'm ready to give you guys a quick update ahead of a few days of constant updating. I hope that you guys have enjoyed the past couple days of updates and will continue to do so from here on out. Enjoy.

Chapter Twenty-Four

She told Matt that she just wanted to take it easy and be comfortable with him and bed. She wanted to relax in his arms as they cuddle up to each other and just hold each other close as they look out of the window of their room at the ocean, which is the view that Matt and Alex have from their bed. And boy do they have such a great way to wake up in the morning, as they wake up when the sun rises (and then try and fall back asleep). Well, hopefully. After all, they haven't woken up here in Miami yet; their first morning doing that will be tomorrow, something that Alex is excited about as it may mean that she can get an entire day in bed with her husband. Because that's what Alex wants right now, to cuddle up to her dreamy husband in bed; wearing this lingerie that he was currently helping her put on in the washroom. "You might as well enjoy this while you can, as we both know that once I pop; I may not be able to wear it." Matt agreed with his wife as she told him that, well aware that may be the case. "Well, there's other things that you can wear for me."

Alex just looked at her husband as he said that, thinking that he means that in a dirty way. "I am not wearing less clothes than I already am, when I am further along in my pregnancy than I already am." Smirking as he did up the lingerie for his wife, Matt proceeded to turn her around as he wants her to face him. "Who said anything about lingerie?" Stepping close to Alex, Matt smiled as he put his hands on his wife's hips and just smiled at her; while at the same time, she put her hands on his muscular chest as they cuddled up to each other here in the bathroom. "Babe, what other thing could I wear for you?" Matt smirked. "You can wear little underwear and one of my dress shirts to please me." Alex agreed with her husband, as that most certainly is the truth, because that always teases him. "And now, I can do it as your pregnant wife; rather than do it as your girlfriend." Matt smirked as his gorgeous wife said that, while also feeling her wrap her arms around his neck; at the same time, he put his hands on her arms and smiled at his gorgeous wife.

He smiled at the woman of his dreams, as he stared into her eyes and ran his hands up and down her arms as a way to give her some attention; before leaning in and kissing her softly as a way to make her feel happy and beautiful, which is most certainly how she feels right now. She feels happy due to the fact that she's married to the love of her life, while also being pregnant with their first child; and she's also feeling beautiful, because that's how lingerie makes her feel. It makes her feel beautiful as it makes her husband want to run his hands all over her body, which is precisely why Alex is wearing it; she's wearing it because she wants to have Matt's hands all over her body as they hold each other close here in their room. It's going to be a lot of fun, and they both know that's the truth; along with them also knowing that they need to do something else regardless of the fact that it's the weekend. And that's starting something for Alex, her introduction to the company that her husband runs so that she can help him when he's in a tough spot; or just needs a hand.

I mean, they are going to be working from home right now, which means that she's going to be his personal assistant at home, so she might as well know the job. And that most certainly will also come in handy when they go to business meetings, as she'll already know some people's names. But at the end of the day, that's not what she's mostly going to be doing right now. Rather, what she's going to be doing is cuddling up to the man of her dreams as they hold each other close and just take it nice and easy with each other in bed. They're going to cuddle and hold each other close for a while, especially since Alex is a bit tired. "Sorry we didn't stay in the pool as long as you wanted to." Matt shook his head, as that's the last thing he wants to hear. "Babe, I know you're tired because of the baby. And if you're tired, then I want you to take it easy as we cuddle and hold each other close; I mean that Alex." Alex agreed with Matt, as she knew that he means that based on the way that he's talking to her. And boy does she like the way that he's talking to her.

God, the way he speaks to her is always a way that makes her wonder whether he's talking to her or flirting with her; he just has this way of talking to her that always makes her heart skip a beat the moment she hears him speak to her. But right now, that's not what she needs to concentrate on. Rather, she just needs to concentrate on being with her husband as they hold each other close and take it nice and easy with each other; her favorite thing to do when she's alone with the man of her dreams. Her dreamy husband, and the love of her life; Matthew James Casey. "So, are we headed to bed now? Or are we going to be standing here for a minute?" Matt laughed as Alex asked him that question, as he had a feeling that she wanted to do get in bed with him. "Let me guess, you'd rather go sit in bed." Alex agreed with her wonderful husband as he asked her that question, before wrapping her arms around his neck nice and tight, while also kissing him and taking things nice and slow with the man of her dreams. The man she loves more than anything.

Her husband and the love of her life, Matthew Casey. The man she wants to spend some time cuddling up to for a while. "Let's get in bed, and I want to stay there for a bit. I just want to hold you close to me as we relax with each other in bed." Stepping close to Alex, Matt moved his hand to the side of her face and smiled as he leaned in and kissed her softly. "Everything okay babe?" Alex agreed with Matt. "Just been a busy 48 hours. I mean, we got married Friday and came here today. Then, we haven't stopped yet." Matt agreed with Alex as he got close to her before wrapping his arms around her, which led to his beautiful wife wrapping her arms around his back and looking up into those gorgeous eyes of his. "Is everything okay? Do you feel like I'm forcing you to do things wrong?" Alex shook her head as Matt asked her that question, as things are going great between the both of them. "Things are great, especially since I am finally married to the man of my dreams." Matt agreed with Alex as he loves that they're finally married after everything.

After everything they've had to go through to get here, they're finally married and expecting their first child together. "And even better, you're also pregnant with our first child." Alex smiled as she heard Matt say that. "Really pregnant." Matt laughed as he put his hand on the side of his beautiful wife's face, before leaning in and kissing her softly. After all, he loves her more than anything and is very proud to call her his wife. "I hope you know that I love you more than anything." Alex agreed with her husband as he told her that, well aware that was the case as they both just held each other close here in the washroom; after which, she kissed her hunk of a husband again as she was now ready to go lay down in bed with the man of her dreams. She wants to get all comfortable with him. "Listen, how about we go get in bed now? It's what I really want to do right now." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as she told him that, before feeling her grab his hand. After which, he followed her out of their washroom as she led him out to their bed.

Leaning back in bed shortly after getting in bed ahead of Alex this afternoon, Matt smiled as he looked at her with the hopes of her joining him as soon as she could, which is precisely what they both want right now. They both want to get in bed with each other, and just hold them both close as they cuddle up to one another in bed. And Alex was quite happy that Matt was already in bed, as it made things much easier for her to get in bed. "I am so glad that you're already in bed, as you look very comfortable and just ready for me to cuddle up to you." Matt laughed as Alex told him that, well aware that was the case. "Oh, just get in here beautiful and come cuddle up to me just like we both know you want to do right now. You want to cuddle up to me and just take it easy with me." Alex agreed with her husband as he said that, as that's precisely what she wants to do. "So, are we talking business or just taking it easy?" Matt laughed. "I want to take it easy. Maybe we can wait a bit for the company as we're on our honeymoon." Alex smirked.

After all, that's precisely what they're on right now. They're on their honeymoon. "Then that means no working whatsoever if we're on our honeymoon." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, well aware that was the case as she got close to him. After which, he smiled as he felt Alex crawl into his arms and cuddled up to him. After which, she put her hands on his chest and just smiled as she took a moment to stare at her loving husband; the man of her dreams whom she loves more than anything in the entire world. After which, she leaned in and kissed him softly, which most certainly made the both of them very happy. "God, I love it when you kiss me like that." Alex was a bit confused as she heard Matt say that. "In what way?" Matt smirked as he put his hand on her face before kissing her again. "There's just this way that you kiss me that always makes me smile. I can't explain it. Maybe it's just the fact that I get to have you kiss me all the time now." Alex agreed with Matt, smiling as that most certainly is the truth. Her lips are his.

They belong to him and will always be long to him. "Well, them, you better get used to the feeling of my lips on yours; because they are yours for the rest of your life." Matt smirked and agreed with Alex as he put his hand on the side of her face, kissing the woman of his dreams once more before she finally crawled right over to him and laid down in his arms. She laid down in his arms and cuddled up to him like she always wants to, with her arms wrapped tight around his muscular torso and her head on his heart; that way, she can listen to his heart beating under her ear the entire time. And she has to say, it's the best feeling in the entire world simply due to the fact that it makes her smile each and every time she likes to his heartbeat. And she especially when it starts to beat faster when she's nearby as she knows that it means he's happy and in love. "I can only assume that you're happy right now based on your heartbeat?" Matt agreed with Alex as he wrapped his arm around her and nodded, as that most certainly is the truth; she makes him very happy.

Add in the fact that he's going to be a father (for real this time) and that makes him even happier as being a father has always been a dream of his. And now, it's coming true thanks to his beautiful wife. "What can I say? I'm getting my dream life. I have the most beautiful woman in the entire world as my wife, and she's pregnant with our first child. In my opinion, there's nothing better than that." Alex smiled as she heard Matt say that, as that most certainly is the truth. There's nothing better than the feeling of the two of them holding each other close like they are right now, especially since she's pregnant with their baby. "So, what are you thinking when it comes to gender?" Turning his head, Matt smiled. "I thought we already talked about this; I said that I wanted a boy." Alex agreed with Matt as she cuddled up to him some more, which made him wonder if she was okay. "You okay babe?" Alex sighed as she cuddled up to her husband some more. "I guess, I'm just thinking about the future now that you're talking about the business more."

Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, clearly able to notice that she's been a bit more timid and worried ever since he mentioned the business. "Let me guess, are you starting to change your mind when it comes to you learning about each and every division and subsidiary of the company?" Taking a breath, Alex sighed as she hated that she was changing her mind like this, but she was changing her mind. She's just starting to get a bit worried with regards to how much stress it might put on the baby. "I'm just thinking about the baby, and how much stress learning about all of that might put on my body, and the baby in general." Matt agreed with his wife as she told him that, while also looking down at her as he wrapped his legs around hers some more. "Alex, look up at me for a second." Alex agreed, going just that for the man she loves. "Alex, do you really think that I would give you more information than I thought you needed when it comes to the company? Remember, I'd be the one who was teaching you, which means that I can monitor you."

Thinking about it, Alex agreed as she knew that was the case. "More like stalk me as you teach me." Matt agreed with his wife as he ran his hand up and down her back. "Hey, I'm just as worried as you are when it comes to your health and safety, as well as the health and safety of our child as they grow inside of you." Alex smiled as she heard Matt say that, while also turning her head and leaning up to kiss him softly. However, the kiss didn't last long as Alex then decided to do something quite sexy; she decided to sit up and look at the man she loves. After which, she put her hands on his face and smiled as she kissed him softly. "God, I am so turned on by you and I want to cuddle up to you. But I need to go do something first." Matt was confused. "What's that?" Alex smirked as she went to get up before walking away. "Hey, where are you going?" Alex smirked. "You'll see in a minute. Just take a breather and calm down." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as he watched her walk away to the closet, unsure of why she was doing so; but more than okay with it.

She decided to change what she was wearing again, as she realized that she didn't really want to be wearing the body suit that she was wearing; not when she was instead going to want to cuddle up to her hunk of a husband while topless, so she decided to get changed. She decided to change out of her bodysuit and into some very little underwear and one of his dress shirts. One of the nice cotton dress shirts that she loves to wear as they are so soft and comfortable whenever she wears them. And let's just say that Matt already loves what she decided to wear for him, as he was currently smirking at his wife. "So, that's why you decided to get up out of bed." Alex smirked and agreed with Matt as she sopped in the center of the room, before modelling for him like she would do if she were at the end of a runway. And damn did that make Matt laugh, while also turning him on as he got out of bed and make his way over to her. I mean, how can you not want to make your way over to your sexy wife when she turns you on like Alex just did to Matt?

She's a very sexy woman, and she's all his day and night; something which Matt really likes, as he's done with all the teasing. "God, I am so glad that you're finally my wife. You are such a turn on, that I am not sure if I can handle not getting to run my hands all over your body anymore." Alex agreed with Matt as he walked up to her, smirking as he put his hands on her hips and tugged her body against his toned chest; while she put her hands on his chest and just smiled as they both held each other close. "So, am I going to be able to take off this shirt while we're in bed? Or do you need to keep it on?" Matt then proceeded to move his hands up her body and to the buttons on the shirt, going to undo it while bending down and kissing the woman he loves. The woman he craves more than anything in the entire world. His wife Alexandra Casey. "Let me guess, someone would rather I not wear a shirt when we're in bed?" Matt agreed with Alex. "I was thinking that you keep it off while we're in bed but put it on if we have to go downstairs and eat."

Alex smiled as she liked the sound of that. The sound of her wearing it only when they go downstairs. So much so, that she went to start taking it off; but Matt was not letting that happen, not when it's the reason he got up in the first place. "No ma'am. Nice try. That's not your job." Smirking, Alex agreed with Matt as he walked up to her. After which, she felt him wrap his arms around her and put his hands on her butt; meanwhile, she put her hands on his arms and smiled as she looked up at the man of her dreams, who soon bent down and kissed her softly. "I love you." Alex agreed with her husband as he told her that he loves her, as she's madly in love with him too; especially when he teases her the way he does when he puts his hand on the side of her face and tugs her body against his. After which, he wrapped his arm around her back and smirked as he leaned in and kissed her softly. God, the way he does this is just incredible. "God, you are so damn sexy as you do that." Matt agreed with his wife, smiling as he kissed her once more this afternoon.

After which, he started to undo her shirt so that he could see her body; all the while, he continued to kiss his wife. Something that really made Alex smile, as she loves the feeling of Matt's soft lips on hers. "God, I love you so much." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, smiling as she felt him take off the shirt that she was wear; after which, he picked her up and smirked as he opened the covers to their bed and laid Alex down. And damn did that turn Alex on. "God, I love this feeling." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, smiling as he sat down on the edge of their bed and put his hand next to her as he leaned over her. "And I love you." Alex agreed with Matt as she watched him lean over her, while also placing his hand on her neck and bending down to kiss her; meanwhile, she put her hand on his arm and smiled as they took things nice and slow with each other right now. Something that they always love doing with each other due to the fact that it's the best feeling in the entire world. God, she just loves these sweet lips of his.

And she especially loves it when she gets to kiss him all she wants. She gets to kiss the man of her dreams as they hold each other close and just take it nice and easy with each other like they both want to do right now. And the best part, he's the love of her life. "God, I love it when you do this, but I would much rather just cuddle up to you in bed right now if that's okay. I feel tired." Matt agreed with Alex, before taking a breath. "Probably due to the fact that you got out of bed late last night. What was wrong babe?" Alex sighed. "It was the dogs, they were barking and trying to get out; surprised you didn't hear them." Matt was surprised. "Yeah, me too. Must just be tired. It felt nice being able to sleep here without the drama and stress." Alex sighed as she looked at the man she loves, while also rubbing his arm. "Yeah, that's probably why I'm so tired. The drama and stuff." Matt agreed as he bent down and kissed the woman of his dreams. The woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "You want me to get in bed and we can talk?"

Alex took a breath as she proceeded to grab Matt's hand. "Do you mind?" Matt shook his head as Alex asked him that question, before leaning over his beautiful wife once more. Placing his hand on her neck, he smiled as he kissed the woman he loves. "Of course not babe. We can talk all you want. I promise." Alex agreed with Matt, smiling as she kissed the man she loves. The man she wants to spend the rest of her life loving. And now that they're married and are having a baby, that's precisely what she's going to do.

Rather than lay down facing each other, Matt and Alex decided that they wanted to cuddle with each other. That they wanted to hold each other close as they took it easy in bed together, which is precisely why Alex was currently laying down on her muscular husband's chest; while at the same time, he wrapped his arm around her back and kissed her forehead softly. He kissed her forehead as they both held each other close and just took it easy with each other, something that made the both of them very happy and content simply due to the fact that they are very comfortable with each other. They're comfortable and happy due to the fact that this is precisely how they want to be celebrating the fact that they're married, by just being with each other as they hold each other close. It really makes them happy, while they're also very comfortable with each other as they snuggle up to one another in bed; the bed that they enjoy laying down in due to the fact that it's extremely comfortable when they snuggle like this.

Then again, Alex isn't exactly the one who can judge that; and that's due to the fact that she isn't the one who sleeps on the mattress, as that would be her husband. Rather, she sleeps on his chest as she cuddles up to him. Regardless, it's very comfortable and it makes her very happy that she gets to cuddle up to the man of her dreams like she is right now. This is the best feeling in the entire world, and it's the best way for the two of them to start off their life as husband and wife. "Does it feel real to you yet?" Turning his head while pressing his lips to Alex's forehead once more, Matt was confused as he didn't understand what his wife was asking him. "What are you talking about babe?" Alex smiled. "Just everything. How we're married, having a baby. How we don't need to hide anymore." Matt smiled, as he understood what Alex was asking him and just smirked as it did feel real to him. "Yeha it does. It feels real because I'm wearing a wedding band." Alex agreed with Matt as he said that. "And because my gorgeous wife is pregnant with our baby."

Alex smiled as Matt mentioned that she's pregnant with their child, a fact that always makes her smile due to the fact that it's her dream come true. She's always wanted to be a mom to her and Matt's kids, and now it's finally a reality. She's going to be a mom to her and Matt's kids. "I hope you know that this is a dream come true, as I have always wanted to be pregnant with your baby." Matt laughed, well aware that's the truth. "Oh, I am well aware of that truth. And I promise you this, we are going to have a great life with each other." Alex smiled as she bent down and kissed his chest again. "Anything you want to do when we have kids?" Matt smirked. "If we're here in Florida, then I want to take them to Disney World." Alex agreed. "I want to take them to Disneyland Paris actually." Turning his head, Matt was confused. "Why?" Alex smirked. "Well, we can bring my mom with us." Matt agreed with Alex, just listening to her. "And then, she can fly the kids home; while me and my husband have a nice romantic vacation in Paris."

Matt smirked as Alex said that. "Remember our last Paris Fashion week?" Alex smiled, as that was amazing; and she's still in disbelief that they didn't get pregnant then. "How did we not get pregnant then?" Matt shrugged as he ran his hand up and down Alex's back. "You know, I was so proud when you walked in that show. I know you were nervous." Alex agreed with Matt. "Well, we were dating at the time. You were broken up with Hallie and we were dating a bit until you got back together with her." Matt nodded. "Biggest mistake of my life in retrospect." Alex agreed with her husband as he said that, well aware that was the case. But now, they're past that due to the fact that they're married and are expecting a baby. "But I've forgiven you and we're having a baby. That's all that matters at the end of the day." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, smiling as he put his hand on her neck and leaned in to kiss her softly. "God, you make me want to have sex with you." Alex shook her head, as she doesn't want to have sex with him.

She just wants to take it easy and relax with him right now, something that Matt already understands. "But I know you want to relax for the sake of the baby." Alex agreed with her husband. "Is it weird that I already want to relax so much? I mean, I'm barely pregnant. I shouldn't worry about this." Matt shook his head, as that wasn't what he wanted to hear her say. If she wants to worry about their baby, then it's her right to do so; he doesn't want to tell her what she can and can't do. "Babe, you're worried for the sake of our kid. That's something that you can't control now that you're pregnant. If you want to worry for our baby, then go ahead; I'm not going to say anything as I'm worried too." Alex smiled as she heard Matt tell her that, while also feeling him grab her hand. "I'm worried each and every day, as I actually want this dream to come true. I want to be a dad by the end of this pregnancy. And so far, that's precisely what seems to be happening." Alex agreed with her husband, smiling as she put her hand on his face and kissed him softly.

After which, she took things nice and slow with the man of her dreams. The man she loves more than anything in the entire world, her husband. "God, I love you so much that it's just so damn crazy how much I love you." Matt agreed with Alex as she told him that, while also wrapping his arms around her and just smiled as they took it easy with each other right now; meanwhile, Alex wrapped her arms around his back and slipped her legs in between his as a way to ensure that they just take it easy and relax with each other. And that's precisely what they're in the midst of doing right now. They're holding each other close as they take it nice and easy with each other, their favorite thing to do when it comes to how sexy they want to be with each other. "I hope you know that this is all I need when it comes to what I want to do with you. I just want to hold you close and take it easy, as we start this new life with each other. A life that I am very proud to share with the love of my life." Alex smirked as she heard Matt say that, while hugging him this afternoon.

After which, she just held him close; while at the same time, Matt rubbed her back and took it easy. "Listen, do you want me to do anything for you right now? Maybe roll over so that you can lay down on my chest? Do you need to take a nap?" Alex sighed as Matt asked her that question. "I know, probably not the most exciting thing for you to do as a newlywed. I just don't understand why I am tired at the moment." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, while running his hand up and down her back as he kissed the top of her head. "Hey, I want you to get the rest you need. And you clearly need to take some time and just take it easy. So, how about you do that as I hold you on my chest? How does that sound?" Alex agreed with her husband, really liking the sound of that. "Thanks." Matt agreed with Alex, while she bent down and kissed his chest. "Hey, it's no problem. I am more than ready to hold you in my arms if you need me to when you need to sleep. Anything for the baby." Alex agreed with her husband, smiling.

She then turned her head and bent down to kiss his chest, before asking him one more thing. "Maybe you could order us some Chinese food for supper? We can have that as our wedding supper rather than cook. I just don't want you to move so that you can go make food. I want you to stay here with me." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, as that's something that he wants as well. He wants to stay where he is, and not move for a while simply due to the fact that he is very comfortable as he holds the woman he loves in bed as he is right now. It's just something that brings him a lot of joy in life, which is why he's doing it right now. Why he's holding Alex so close to him right now as they cuddle up to each other in bed and just take it easy with each other. And since they're just taking it easy with each other this afternoon, it gives Alex the time she needs to rest and take it easy with her husband. "I hope you know I appreciate this Matt." Matt agreed with Alex, as he knows that she appreciates what he's doing for her.

And he's more than okay with doing it, because she's his wife and the love of his life. And that's why he's doing it, because he wants to make her happy and comfortable. "I'm doing this for you babe. So that you can just take it easy and relax as you cuddle up to me in bed. After all, we both know that this is what you need to do in the moment as we both take it easy and relax with each other during the first few days of this pregnancy and our marriage. Hell, I need it too." Turning her head, Alex looked up at Matt. "Let me guess, the stress is finally getting to you?" Matt sighed, while turning his head and pressing his lips to Alex's forehead. "More like the utter exhaustion that came with having to live two lives for a while." Slipping up her husband's chest, Alex looked down into his eyes; while at the same time, Matt put his hand on her face. "But it was worth it, as I now have you in my life." Alex laughed as she heard Matt say that, while also bending down and kissing the man of her dreams. "Good save." Matt smiled as he heard Alex say that.

However, he was telling her the truth. "That wasn't a save, that was me telling you the truth." Alex just looked at her husband as he told her that, knowing that he's lying know; but that was the truth, because it was worth it. "I mean it Alex. All the heartache that I had to go through, as well as the misery of finding out the truth; it was worth it as I am now married to the love of my life. The woman I'm extremely proud to call my wife, and who I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with. I mean that babe." Alex agreed with Matt as he told her that, smiling as she bent down and proceeded to kiss him softly. After which, they both took things nice and slow with each other until Alex fell asleep in Matt's arms; followed by Matt falling asleep as well due to the fact that they were both tired this afternoon. So tired, that they slept for much longer than they expected…until supper almost.
