Hi Readers: And welcome to another day of chapters. A day where I get to add on to my original stories, especially in this chapter. But, just why am I saying that this chapter in particular is going to be a chapter where I add on to my original stories? Well, it's due to the fact that this chapter is original material which you've never read before. Hopefully, I can get a couple chapters out like this. But, we'll see based on where the story goes. Now, what do you say we get back to the story so that I can give you this new chapter?


Chapter Seven
That Nightmare


"I had that dream again. The dream where they lied to us about the aneurysm, and where I died giving birth." -Gabriela Casey

That was always Matt's biggest concern when Gabby slept now, that she would have this dream again; well, more like that nightmare as he doesn't believe that they can truly call it a dream. Not when it's so horrible, and extremely scary. And that's precisely what Matt said. "Well, I'm not sure I would call that a dream." Turning her head, Gabby agreed with Matt as that most certainly made sense. Rather than a dream, it was a nightmare. "Yeah, I think it's safe to say that it's really a nightmare." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, well aware that was the case. But regardless of what it was, all Gabby needed to know was that he was here for her; and that he'd always be here for her, as that's his job as her husband. His job as her husband is to love and support her through everything that they go through in life, and that's precisely what Matt's in the midst of doing right now. He's providing his wife with the love and support she needs to get through this wife him. However, he wasn't sure whether they two of them sitting up was the right thing to do; in fact, he was positive in his assumption that Gabby would rather be lying down in his arms, all cuddled up to him.

So, that's exactly what Matt offered Gabby. "Hey, you want me to lay down again? You can cuddle up to me and we can hold each other? Do you think that would help you?" Turning her head, Gabby bit her lip before nodding due to the fact that she did, in fact, think that would help her; it would help her due to the fact that it would allow her some time to just take it easy and relax with the man she loves. The man who will always take care of her and their baby to the best of his abilities, which starts right now when they lie down in each other's arms; something she needs at the moment as she's truly petrified after what she just had to deal with. But, she already knew that Matt holding her in his arms would help, which is why she wants that right now. Why she wants to cuddle up to her husband, as they hold each other close and just take it easy with each other here in bed. And now that she was laying down in front of Matt, Gabby was already starting to feel better simply due to the fact that she has the man of her dreams holding her close; with his arm wrapped around her back and his soft lips on her forehead. And damn did that feel nice. It felt nice as she was calm.

He always calmed her down, especially when she has bad dreams; it was one of the biggest reasons why he didn't sleep much after Shay died, after they lost the baby. Because she had bad dreams and needed him. And she's so grateful to have this incredible man in her life, as she truly doesn't know what she'd do without him. Without his love and affection, which she most certainly was in the midst of getting as she cuddled up to the man of her dreams. "Listen, how about we start with this? Let's just breathe and take it easy, because that always helps when you have that dream; right?" Gabby agreed, as her breathing most certainly does help when she has that dream. It helps due to the fact that it's just what she needs to do at times. She needs to breathe and calm down with the held of her husband. "Thanks for helping me." Matt shook his head as Gabby thanked him for helping her, as she had no reason to thank him when this is his job; it'll always be his job, as he's her husband. And he's also the man who loves it when she slips her legs in between his, especially when they're naked with each other in bed, which they still are. Which reminds him of something

Does Gabby want to get dressed? Well, maybe he should ask her. "Uhm, are you okay like this as we hold each other? Or, would you rather we get dressed?" Looking up at her husband, Gabby placed her hand on his face as that was the last thing she wanted to do. She wants to stay like this right now, as they just hold each other close and cuddle up to one another in bed. "Can we stay like this? I find this very calming." Matt agreed with Gabby as he placed his hand on her back, stroking it with his thumb as they both held each other close and just took it easy with each other. After all, he could clearly see that this truly was what she wanted to do right now. She wants them to hold each other close, as they take it nice and easy with each other in the comfort of their bed; but, not easy in the way you think. She doesn't want to have sex (they already did that), she wants to just hold each other close and breathe for the sake of their baby. "Do you want to talk about it?" Taking a breath, Gabby looked up at the man of her dreams; after which, she nodded as she does want to talk about it. "I need to get it out of my head, but I need your help to do it." Matt agreed with Gabby.

After all, he's here to help her with whatever she needs. If she needs him to help her with a bad dream, then that's precisely what he's going to do. He's going to help her with a bad dream, as they hold each other close here in bed. "So, are you going to talk to me and fill me in on what's happening?" Taking a breath, Gabby looked up at the man she loves. "Well, I already told you the dream." Matt nodded, agreeing with his wife as he already knew the dream. She had the dream about her still having an aneurysm while she was pregnant right now. However, that wasn't the truth as she no longer had an aneurysm. She was no longer at risk of dying, simply due to the fact that she was pregnant. "Gabby, come here and just hold me close so that you can listen to me nice and clearly." Gabby agreed with her husband as he asked her to get close to him, before doing just that; wrapping her arms around him, she smiled as she was very comfortable here in his arms. Even more so when he wrapped his arm around her back and brought her against his chest.

Oh, now that's a nice feeling which she always enjoys due to the fact that he's very sexy; this is very sexy and precisely what they both want. They both want to hold each other close, as they cuddle up to each other and talk about that dream. "Gabby, listen. I want you to remember that it's not going to happen. Gabby, you have me convinced of that; so, I have no idea how you're still worried about that. I mean, I'm not faulting you for being worried…let me be clear about that; but, please just take a breath and relax honey. I promise that everything is okay. You can take it easy and just relax, because everything is okay. Everything will always be okay, as long as we're together in this." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, as that most certainly is the truth. Everything will always be okay, just as long as they're in this together. "Thanks for reminding me of that." Matt agreed with Gabby, smiling at the woman of his dreams as he leaned in and kissed his wife softly. After which, he stroked her back with his thumb. "Gabby, you sure you're okay?"

Gabby sighed, as she didn't know. "I guess, there's just a lot still there from the past and I hate that." Matt agreed with his wife as she told him that, understanding what she's saying as they do have a lot of baggage. Baggage which he's not proud of, due to the fact that he's a big part of that baggage. Had he not said those horrible things, then he knew that things would be much better between them. However, they can't go back, and they don't want to go back now that they're pregnant with their child. Something he's very happy about. "I still love the fact that we're having a baby." Gabby smiled, agreeing with Matt as she wrapped her arms around his neck. After which, she leaned in and kissed her husband nice and slowly. "Do you need anything from me?" Taking a breath, Gabby looked at the man she loves; while also getting close to him, as she placed her hand on his face and kissed him softly. "I could go for a bath. Might help me relax and change my thoughts." Matt agreed with his wife, smiling at her as he thought the same thing. "I think so too."

Gabby smiled as Matt said that, before getting close to him and wrapping her arms around him; while Matt ran his hand up her back and held her in his arms. After all, that's precisely what she needs at the moment. She needs to be held by him this way, as he just makes sure that she's okay and calm. If not, she's going to think too much rather than take it easy for their little one. But now, they're going to take a bath and they both already know that's going to do wonders for her. "So, you want me to go run us a bath?" Leaning back, Gabby smiled and agreed with Matt as she placed her hand on his face and kissed him softly. "If you could, I'd really appreciate that." Matt nodded, smiling as he leaned in and kissed the woman of his dreams softly. "Well, then you can show me how much you appreciate me with a bunch of kisses in the bath." Gabby smiled, agreeing with Matt as that most certainly is something she can do for him in the bath. "And I promise, I will." Matt agreed with Gabby, smiling as he kissed her once more this afternoon.

Just taking things nice and slow with the woman of his dreams, Matt smirked due to the fact that she truly is the woman of his dreams, and he makes her extremely happy simply due to the fact that she's his wife and the woman he loves. "I love you Gabby, and I promise that I'll always be there for you; no matter what you need, you can always talk to me. I promise." Gabby agreed with her husband as he told her that, well aware that was the case as she leaned her forehead against his. "I know that, and I am so grateful to have you as much husband. I truly am a very lucky woman." Matt agreed with Gabby, smirking as he leaned in and kissed his beautiful wife softly. "I'll go run us that bath, see you in a minute." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling as that's precisely what she wants right now. She wants him to go run them a bath, which most certainly will help her relax and just take it easy this afternoon; something which she needs to do both for her sake, and for the sake of their baby. The baby they already can't wait to meet, which is something she's going to do.


The sight of her dreamy husband standing next to their bath in his towel is a sight that'll never get old, as it's the best sight in the entire world; especially since it makes her hormones go racing whenever she sees Matt standing here like that, which is precisely why he does it a lot. He does it due to the fact that he wants to tease Gabby and make her feel loved. And right now, that's precisely what Matt's going to do (just as soon as she's standing with him). She's going to make him feel loved by giving him a nice kiss, that way she can thank him for the help that he just gave her in bed; the help she really needed after that bad dream. One that she never wants to have again, and truly doubts she ever will due to the fact that her husband has already made her feel better; but not as good as he can make her feel when she's standing close to him, which is precisely what she's doing now as she placed her hand on his chest this morning to let him know that she's here with him in the bathroom. Meanwhile, Matt turned his head and smiled at his wife.

Wrapping his arm around Gabby at the same time, Matt smiled as he tugged her body into his and leaned in to kiss her softly. "Hey." Placing her hand on the side of Matt's face, Gabby smiled as she leaned in and kissed him softly. "Hey is right." Matt smirked, agreeing with Gabby as he placed his hand on her butt. After which he stroked it with his thumb as they both just took a moment to stand there in silence. "Thanks for your help out there." Matt shook his head, as Gabby didn't need to thank him for doing his job as her husband. "Hey, you have no reason to thank me for doing my job as your husband; and that's precisely what I did. I did my job, by making sure that you're okay after having bad dreams like that." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling as they both held each other close right now. After all, this is both want they want. "I like it when we take baths, did I ever tell you that?" Matt snickered, as he already knew that. "Believe me, I already know that baby; but, we're doing this because it's going to help you out." Gabby agreed, smiling at Matt.

She just didn't know how much help it truly was going to be, until they sat down in the bath and held each other. "So, do you want to talk some more in the bath, or…" Taking a breath, Gabby turned her head and looked at Matt. "Is it okay if we just take a breather and not talk for a bit? After that dream, I think I just need a moment to relax with you." Matt agreed with Gabby, smiling as that most certainly is something they can do; and he's going to tell her that, as he turned to face the woman he loves and stepped close to her. "Hey, look at me." Gabby agreed with Matt as she stepped close to him, while also placing her hands on his muscular chest. "You're my priority in life, and I love you more than anything. If you need to relax in the bath, then we're going to do that together."

Gabby agreed with the man of her dreams, smiling as she placed her hands on his face and smirked as she kissed him softly; taking things nice and slow with him, Gabby just smiled due to the fact that this is precisely what she needs to do at the moment. She needs to hold the man of her dreams close to her, as they just take it easy and just relax with each other. Hell, just being here in Matt's arms is already making her feel better, something which Matt could clearly tell as he ran his hand up and down his beautiful wife's back. "I can only assume that you're enjoying the feeling of me holding you in my arms?" Gabby smiled, as she most certainly does enjoy the feeling of him holding her in his arms as it's just perfect. It's precisely what she wants, and it's exactly what she's getting right now thanks to the man of her dreams. He always treats her like a queen, which makes her feel unworthy of him at times. "I love it more than anything, especially when we're in the bath with each other." Matt smirked as he agreed with his beautiful wife.

After which, he turned his attention back to the bath. Reaching down, Matt made sure that the water was the right temperature; and it most certainly was the right temperature. "It's the perfect temperature, so are you ready to get in?" Walking up to Matt, Gabby smirked as they both knew that she needed something first. Well, two things: (1) she needed him to take off her robe, and (2) she needed a kiss from her husband before they get in the bath. "Well, I need two things first." Matt agreed with his wife, smiling as he walked up to her and placed his hands on her hips; after which, he bent down and kissed the woman he loves softly. "That one of them?" Gabby agreed with Matt, smirking as that most certainly is one of them. "God, I love it when you kiss me like that. Now, are you going to wear sweats after this or just boxers?" Matt took a breath, as he wasn't sure yet. "What do you want?" Gabby smiled. "I think I might want you in boxers." Matt agreed with his gorgeous wife and smirked at the woman he loves. "Then you'll get that."

Agreeing with Matt, Gabby smiled as she placed her hands on his face and just started to take things nice and slow with the man of her dreams. The man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "I love you." Matt agreed with his wife, smirking as he wrapped his arms around her and just started to take things nice and slow with her. "I love you too, and I want to get in the bath with you; so, how about we do that?" Gabby agreed with Matt, smirking as she went ahead and undid his towel for him; something that really turned Matt on due to the fact that it's a real turn on. "Sexy." Gabby agreed with Matt as she went to hang up his towel, before starting to undo her robe; something she most certainly was not going to do. "Excuse me, but what are you doing?" Turning around again, Gabby smirked as she made her way over to Matt. "Right, what was I thinking?" Smirking, Matt agreed with Gabby as he got close to her and leaned in to kiss her softly. "I love you." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling at her incredible husband.

Kissing him as she placed her hands on his chest, Gabby smirked due to the fact that he truly is the man of her dreams. The man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "I love you." Gabby agreed with Matt, while feeling him take off her robe and just letting it fall onto the ground where it belongs; however, rather than turn around to get in the bath, Matt instead got close to her and placed his hands on her back and bent down to kiss her neck. And damn was that really sexy, as it definitely made Gabby moan out of pleasure. "Damn baby." Matt smirked, agreeing with Gabby as he already knew that this was turning her on based on the fact that she was really enjoying this. "I can only assume that this means you like it?" Gabby agreed with her husband, smirking as she turned her head and started to take things nice and slow with her man. "Let's get in the bath." Matt agreed with Gabby, smiling as he went to get in the bath just liked she asked him to; that way they can cuddle up to each other and hold each other close for a while.


The feeling of Matt's strong hand on her body as she cuddled up to him in the bath was perfect, as was the feeling of his soft lips on her forehead due to the fact that it's precisely what the two of them want whenever they're cuddling up to each other; whether it be here in the bath, or in their bed. This is just the best feeling in the entire world, and they both knew it as Gabby turned her head to look up at her husband. "You glad we took a bath, rather than take a shower?" Looking down at the woman of his dreams, Matt smirked as he placed his hand on her leg and stroked it with his thumb; after all, he's always happy when they're in the bath. "I mean, this is much sexier. I get to kiss you and hold you as if we were in bed, but we instead can take it easy and relax with each other in water. Naked." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt tell her that, as that was the truth. And damn was it sexy, so sexy. In fact, it's the best feeling in the entire world. Her and the man of her dreams holding each other close, here in the comfort of their bath.

Especially when they share kisses with each other, which is precisely what they just stared doing as Matt bent down and kissed Gabby softly. "I love you." Gabby agreed with Matt well, aware that he loves her as she ran her hand up and down his arm. After which, she kissed him again as they took things nice and slow with each other. "I love you too." Matt nodded, smirking as he pressed his lips to her forehead precisely like Gabby wants him to. I mean, it is what she wants right now. She wants her husband to hold her close to her, as they relax and just cuddle up to each other here in their bath. "So, you want to talk about it some more?" Gabby sighed. "I'd rather not, then it'll be stuck in my head." Matt nodded, as that made sense. "I just hope you know that you can always talk to me, and that there's no shame in needing to talk. If you need to talk to me, then we're going to talk about what's on your mind." Gabby smiled, extremely grateful for him and all he does for her. "Did I ever tell you just how grateful I am for everything you do for me?"

Matt smirked as Gabby asked him that question. "Each and every time we make love to each other in bed." Gabby smiled, as that most certainly is the truth. God, they always have so much fun with each other in bed that it's just amazing. And even better, there's nobody else in this entire world that she'd rather be making love to so often. Matt is such a hunk, and she's so happy that she gets to call him her husband. He's incredible and she's just so happy to be with him, especially as they start this life with each other here in Hawaii. "So, Thursday is the OB/GYN I think, right?" Matt agreed with Gabby. "I believe it is, but we can always check again. I promise, we're going to go there as I want to make sure that this little girl here is all okay." Turning her head, Gabby smiled. "Oh, and what makes you so sure that it's a girl rather than a boy?" Matt shrugged. "I just feel like it's going to be a girl rather than a boy." Gabby smiled. "And if it's a boy?" Matt smirked. "Well, then I'll be happy. I don't care about the gender; all I care about is the fact that we're together."

Gabby agreed with her loving husband as he told her that, smiling due to the fact that he's truly making her want him more and more each and every time he speaks to her. "I swear, you make me want you more and more each and every time you say something." Matt snickered as he heard Gabby say that, before bending down and smiling as he started to take things nice and slow with the woman he loves. "So, I just realized something. If the OB is Thursday, that means it's on our anniversary. Any ideas for what you want to do on our anniversary?" Gabby sighed. "I'm not sure yet, but I think it'll depend on how I feel that day." Matt agreed with Gabby, well aware that was the case. "And that's fine with me." Turning her head, Gabby was surprised. "Really?" Matt nodded as he smiled at the woman of his dreams. "Of course, it is baby, I want you to be healthy first. I don't want you to feel like you need to do things just because it's a special day for us. I want you to be healthy first, always." Gabby agreed with Matt, as she loved him so much. "I love you so much."

Matt smiled as he pressed his lips to Gabby's forehead. "I love you too. Now, what do you say we just take it easy and relax for the rest of the bath? Just some quiet time?" Gabby agreed with Matt, as that sounded perfect; and it's exactly what they did for the duration of their bath.
