Chapter Twenty-Four: You let me Wake Up Naked, and Alone in Bed


October 17, 2018
His wife was nowhere to be found as he woke up this morning, the husband feeling confused as he made his way downstairs from their bedroom, which is where his wife should be relaxing with him this morning. But she isn't. Rather, she's currently in the kitchen of their new home drinking some morning coffee while looking outside. Hey, at least she's wearing the t-shirt that he was wearing last night. He just hopes that she isn't wearing a bra under that shirt, because that's what he's owed this morning. He's owed a chance to feel her body against his, without a bra in between the both of them. The reason? Gabby just let him wake up in bed, naked without her being in bed with him. Yes, you heard that right; Matt just woke up in bed, without his wife (and the love of his life) near him. But now, he just had this feeling that something was wrong. And right now, Gabby needs him to hold her in his arms; he needs her to wrap his arms around her and hold her.

But first, he needs to let her know that he's awake; and that he's available to talk if she needs to talk to him (which he hopes she does). So it's time for him to tell his beautiful wife that he's awake, and that he's here for her. But first, he decided to make a bit of a joke. "You know, you don't need to always stand by the window with tears in your eyes to let me know that you need to talk to me." Turning around to face her husband, Gabby took a breath as she looked at him. "Hey, what's wrong baby?" Gabby just looked down. "Nothing." Matt shook his head when he heard Gabby say that, walking over to her in his boxers. "I refuse to believe that, especially not when you let me wake up naked, and alone in bed. I mean, that must mean that something's wrong." Gabby took a breath, looking down when Matt mentioned the fact that she let him wake up naked, and alone in their bed. That's when Matt decided to pick Gabby up in his arms and put her on the counter.

Feeling Matt do that, Gabby set her coffee down as she didn't want to have it spill on Matt's shirtless chest. Grabbing the back of his head, Gabby felt Matt get close to her while putting his hands on her sides. At the same time, he looked up at her. "Gabby, it's me. It's Matt. Please don't lie to me and tell me that everything's okay when I can clearly see that it's not. I can see it in your eyes baby that something's wrong. And I want you to let me in so that I can help you right now. So, I'm going to ask you again…what's wrong baby?" Gabby took a breath as she moved her hands to the back of his head. Stepping close to his girl, Matt moved her against his chest before wrapping her legs around his waist. He then leaned in, proceeding to kiss the woman of his dreams softly. "Baby, talk to me and tell me what's wrong." Gabby took a breath. "I had a dream." Matt nodded when he heard Gabby say that. "Was a good dream?" Gabby laughed when he asked her that question.

"It was an amazing dream." Matt nodded. "Then why are you crying baby?" Gabby took a breath, putting her hands on the top of his chest. "Because it's a dream that felt so real that, I didn't want it to not be a dream…and it's something that we've always wanted in life; so that just makes it harder. When the dream is so vivid, that you think is real…when it's not real." Matt then started to realize just what she was talking about. There's just one type of dream that can really get her in this time of a mess. And it's when she has a dream of their future with kids. Helping his wife off the counter (but not letting her leave from her spot in front of him), Matt moved her arms around him and then stepped close to her. Wrapping her arms around Matt, Gabby smiled when she felt Matt put his hands on her arms and rubbed them; and that felt nice, and it was exactly what she wanted Matt to do right now. She wants him to give him the comfort that he's giving her, right now.

"Baby, what's going on in your mind? I want you to talk to me, and I want you to open up to me. Baby, that was part of our deal. We said that we would talk to each other. Just tell me what's going on." Gabby sighed. "It was a dream of me and you, with our newborn twins." Matt was a bit shocked when he heard Gabby say that. "Twins?" Gabby nodded when Matt asked her if they're going to have twins. "And it was just so vivid, that you…that you just feel like you can wake up, and it's a realize. And that scared me, because of how much I want that to be our reality. I mean, maybe not the twins; but maybe. I mean, I feel like we're supposed to have twins." Matt was confused when he heard Gabby tell him that. "Listen, how about this. How about you go sit down? I'll grab myself some coffee, and then we can have our coffee together this morning. I think you need me to hold you comfortably as we talk about this, and I doubt we can do this here." Gabby agreed him.

"I hate to say that I agree, because I feel like this topic is too sensitive for us to just talk about it standing here." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife when she told him that, smiling at her. "Then how about you go sit in bed? Want me to make us some breakfast?" Gabby smiled when Matt asked her whether she wants him to make them some breakfast. "If you did, that'd be amazing. And it'd make you the best husband in the entire world." Matt smirked when he heard Gabby tell him that. "Oh, would it now?" Gabby nodded as she stepped close to her loving husband, leaning in before proceeding to kiss him softly. She then went ahead and took things nice and slow with him. "I love you." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, smiling at her. "I love you too, and I'm loving our new life already. Now, how about you go sit down in bed so that you can take it easy and just relax baby? I think that's what you need right now. You need to sit down and take a breather."

Gabby agreed with Matt when he told her that, proceeding to walk away so that she can make her way to their room (where she's going to relax and breathe). "Matt, can we do it in bed? I think I want to go there." Turning to face his beautiful wife, Matt smiled when he asked her if they can eat breakfast in bed. "Hey, if you want to eat breakfast in bed; then I will bring you breakfast in bed. How does homemade waffles sound?" Gabby smirked when Matt asked her what she things of homemade waffles. "I think that they sound absolutely delicious, just like you in those boxers of yours." Matt laughed, smiling at her. "Just go relax in bed, and I'll be right there." Gabby agreed with Matt. "Oh, and never let me wake up naked, and alone in bed ever again." Gabby laughed when she heard Matt tell her that. "No promises." Matt laughed when he heard Gabby tell him that. "Just go relax in bed, I'll be there soon." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling.

Watching her walk away, Matt took a breath as he thought about what she just told him; how she just had a vivid dream of them having twins. And the truth is, that does sound nice; them having twins. So, they are definitely going to have to talk about that when they're in bed with each other. And while it might be scary for Gabby to talk about, he's excited to talk about it; especially since he just thinks it's going to happen. He can't explain how, or why he thinks it's going to happen for certain. But there's just this feeling that Matt has that wants to tell him that they're going to have twins. And that's something that really interests him, that they're going to have twins. It's something that he wants really bad, and it's something that he hopes will happen. But that's not what they need to concentrate on right now. Rather, he needs to concentrate on making his wife some homemade waffles, then he can join her in bed and make her feel better.


Making his way into their bedroom shortly after he made them some breakfast, Matt smiled when he walked in to see Gabby sitting down in bed wearing some sexy lingerie for him rather than the shirt she was wearing in the kitchen. "Oh, now if this isn't a nice sight." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that. "That doesn't mean that you're getting me in this. Rather, it's so that we can cuddle up to each other after we have breakfast. I mean, unless you want to get a tour of the island after we eat?" Matt shook his head. "Baby, I'm in no rush to get a tour. If you feel like you need to stay in bed together, then we'll do that okay?" Gabby agreed with Matt then he told her that. "I think I need it after the dream I had last night." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that. "Then that's what we're going to do today. We'll stay in bed and relax together, on the condition that you talk to me about what's bothering you." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling.

"I think that I can agree to that, on the condition that you wear those nice boxers for me all day." Matt nodded when she said that she wants him to wear the boxers he's currently wearing for the rest of the day, which he can do. "Maybe after breakfast, we can take a nice bath together first? Or we can go to the beach, and I can get my daily exercise in." Gabby looked up at her husband. "Okay, that means that you don't get this lingerie that I'm wearing for the rest of the day." Matt bit his lip before shaking his head, definitely wanting to have that lingerie that she's wearing all to himself right now. "Yeah, I'm not leaving bed today." Gabby laughed when she heard Matt say that, agreeing as he made his way over to their bed so that he can join her in bed while they eat breakfast together; oh, and so that she can cuddle up to her hunk of a husband. God, he really is such an amazing man, she she's so happy over the fact that Matt's her husband. He really is the best.

She feels so lucky that she's his wife, and that they're married. If only she could give him a baby, then they'd be set for life. And she just has this feeling that it's going to happen soon, she just can't explain WHY she feels that way. She just hopes that she's right when she says that they're going to have a baby soon, as that means that they're going to be parents. God, Gabby can't wait to see what Matt's like a dad. Well, she's already seen him like a dad to Louie; but she wants to see him as a father to a biological child of his. And thanks to the fact that she no longer has an aneurysm, she can make sure that they both have a biological child; and she can make sure that they have said child in their lives for the rest of their lives, but first she has to get pregnant. And that means that it needs to work. She needs to do it, because she knows that it'll happen soon. There's no reason to believe that it won't happen soon, so she just prays that her beliefs will lead to them having a baby.

But right now, she doesn't need to worry about that; all she needs to worry about is getting comfortable in bed with Matt, and eating breakfast with him. Then, they can talk. And she just knows that if they talk, then she's going to feel much better. He always makes her feel better, and she's glad that they're going to just relax in bed together. It's what she needs. She needs to take it easy with the man of her dreams, and she needs to have him hold her in his arms. She just knows that's going to help her immensely, and she's so proud of the power that he has to make her feel better so easily. Now, time to move over and let him sit down in bed; which she just did. "Thanks baby." Gabby agreed with Matt then he said that, watching as he set the tray of food (which he already cut) down on the bed. After which, he climbed into bed and leaned back against his pillow. "How about you come cuddle up to me? I can feed you, and make you feel better all at once."

Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that he wants her to lay down in his arms, wanting to do the same exact thing as he is very comfortable. Another reason why she wants to do it? Because she knows that it truly will make her feel better. That's just a fact that she can't deny, and she loves the fact that the man of her dreams can just make her feel so good. It's amazing, and she's so happy that Matt is her husband. He truly is the man of her dreams, and she's so proud of the fact that he's this amazing man that she's married to. But now, just time to cuddle up to him; then they can both eat breakfast together. Well, not just eat breakfast; Matt can feed her breakfast, which he does expertly. It'll be exactly what they both want to do today as they hold each other close. God, this truly is the life that they want to live together; well, it will be if the dream that she had comes true. The dream she had about Matteo and Sofia Casey. Now, wouldn't that be a dream come true.


Matt's POV:
The first thing Gabby said after she finished eating, was that she thought the pancakes were delicious, and I loved that compliment. I'm so happy that she enjoyed the pancakes that I made for the both of us, but that was not my main goal now. Now, it's time for me to get in bed and so something that I need to do as her husband. And just what might that be? Well, it's to give her comfort. Give her comfort and get her to talk to me about something that I know she's not really going to be interested in talking to me about. In fact, she's probably going to want to avoid talking about this subject altogether. However, I feel strongly that it's what we need to talk about. Just looking at my girl as she waited for me to get back in bed (with our water bottles in my hands), I took a breath as I could see the worry in her eyes. "Gabby, we need to." Gabby sighed. "Yeah, I know." I nodded, agreeing with her. "We have time Gabby. Remember, the charity said take all the time."

Yes, the charity decided to just let us have all the time we need to get settled; and we may be taking that to our advantage. We're treating this as a bit of a honeymoon too if we're being completely honest with each other. "We aren't taking advantage of that are we?" I shook my head when Gabby asked me whether we're taking advantage of what the charity is letting us do. "Of course, we aren't taking advantage of that baby. We're just doing what they told us to do. They told us to take all the time we need, so we're doing just that." Gabby thought about it and agreed with me. "And considering the fact that you're down right now, I'm glad that we're in the midst of taking it easy. It's what you need to do. You need to hold me close, and you need to relax right now. Now, I am going to get in bed with you; that way, I can give you the comfort you need." Gabby agreed with me when I told her that, clearly excited for me to do just that. "I love that idea." I smiled.

"Then how about I get in bed, and I can make you nice and comfortable in my arms?" Gabby nodded when I said that, watching as I finished climbing back into bed with her. Afterwards, it was like clockwork; she just crawled into my arms and cuddled up to me. Moving my hand to her back, I smiled as I ran my hand up and down her back. Afterwards, I kissed the top of her head and just held her close to me (which is where she belongs right now). She just needs to be with me, as I hold her close to me and take it easy with her. Putting her hand on my chest as she laid down in my arms, Gabby cuddled up to me. At the same time, I decided to tug the covers up on top of the both of us; and let's just say that made Gabby very happy. Cuddling up to me, Gabby smirked due to the fact that she was cuddling up to me on my chest. Slipping down in bed, I put my hand on her arm and stroked it with my thumb. Turning my head, I kissed her forehead and smiled at her.

Meanwhile, Gabby looked up at me and smiled. I could see that, even though she was hurting; she was also happy due to the fact that I was here with her. I then proceeded to put my hand on hers, stroking it with my thumb as I bent down and proceeded to kiss her softly. Just taking things nice and slow with the woman of my dreams, I smirked due to the fact that she truly is the most beautiful woman in the entire world (in my opinion); and this really is perfect, as there is nowhere I would rather be other than right here. Right here, in bed with the woman of my dreams all cuddled up to me while I make her feel better. Wrapping my arm around Gabby's back, I stroked it with my thumb as I kissed the top of her head as a way to make her feel better; and let's just say that's exactly what it did. It made Gabby feel better, which I had a feeling was exactly what she needed right now. Looking up at me, Gabby smiled due to the fact that we were here. And the truth was, this was perfect. Bending down, I proceeded to kiss the woman of my dreams softly; taking things slow with her, I smirked as I truly love her more than anything in the entire world. God, she is so sexy; and this is my dream life right now.

Running my hand up and down Gabby's back as she cuddled up to me, I decided to grab the TV remote to go find something to watch. After all, we are going to stay here today. "If you want to go out, you can just tell me okay babe? Don't feel like we need to be stuck here all day. If you want to go out, then we'll go out." Gabby agreed with me when I said that, looking up at me as she scratched my chest. She then smirked as she looked at me. "Hey, look down at me for a minute?" I smiled as I looked down into Gabby's eyes, incredibly happy. "I know baby. And thanks for already making me feel better. I just thought that it would've happened by now." I agreed with Gabby when she told me that, well aware that was the case. "Well, we just need to keep trying. And I have to say this, I'm loving that part a bit too much." Gabby smirked when she heard me say that. She then felt me bent down and steal a kiss from her lips. Taking things slow with my wife, I smirked.

"God, you are so damn sexy; and I love you. I really hope you know that." Gabby agreed with me when I said that. "You're not too bad yourself Mr. Casey." I smiled when I heard Gabby say that, continuing to stroke her back as I kissed her forehead softly. "I have to say, I'm glad we were able to get this place. I love it so much." Gabby agreed with me when I said that, especially smiling as I wrapped my legs around hers in bed. (I do that pretty much all the time we're in bed now, because I know that she loves it; and I also know that it always makes her feel better when she needs to cuddle up to me (this being one of those times). "And I love you, and I am so glad that you came here baby; and I really mean that." Looking down at my beautiful wife, I smiled at her. "Hey, don't even worry about it baby. I love you, and that's all that matters at the end of the day. This is where I belong. I belong here, with the love of my life where we can take it easy together."

Gabby agreed with me when I said that. "Do you think that this will help us get pregnant?" I nodded when Gabby asked me if she thinks that us living here will help us get pregnant. "Yeah, in more ways than one." Gabby was confused when I said that, looking up at me. "More ways than one?" I nodded. "Yeah…" Running my hand down Gabby's back, I smiled at her. "Here, we're just husband and wife. This is a fresh start for the both of us, and it's what we need. We need this fresh start so that we can just take it easy, and so that we can concentrate on our marriage for a while." Gabby agreed with me when I said that. Running my hand up and down her back, I smiled due to the fact that she truly is the best wife in the entire world.. And I mean that. She's just the best, and I am so proud of her. "I mean, you're here to help people who need help; and that makes me such a proud husband." Gabby agreed with me when I said that, smiling at me as we held each other.

And when I say that I'm very comfortable with my beautiful wife in my arms, I mean that in every sense of the word. Gabby is just so damn sexy, and I'm glad that she's currently laying down on my chest; and even better, she's not wearing a bra. Oh god, that's so comfortable; and it's exactly what I want from my beautiful wife. Plus, I just have this feeling that it makes her feel a lot better than she's ever going to tell me. Right now, she just wants me to hold her in my arms. So, that's exactly what I plan on doing. I plan on making sure that she feels better, and I'm sure that she appreciates it; no, I know it based on what she just said to me. "I hope you know that I appreciate you holding me in your arms as we deal with this." I agreed with Gabby when she told me that, deciding to pause the TV show that we were watching. "Hey, look up at me." Gabby nodded, looking up at me. "What is it baby?" I smiled at Gabby when she asked me that, bending down to kiss her.

"There's no appreciating me in helping you deal with this. I'm your husband, I love you, and I'm dealing with this too baby. If you're sad, then I'm sad; that's a fact." Gabby looked at me when I said that. "You're sad?" Matt nodded. "Yeah I'm sad. I'm sad because my wife is sad, and I don't like that. It's not a nice sight on my wife's face, especially when I want her to be happy." Gabby agreed with me when I said that, laying her head down on my chest. "I want Hispanic name for our kids." I smiled. "I think we already talked about that. However, I don't care how we do it…if we use Andrew, it is not becoming Andres. Do you hear me?" Gabby looked up at me when I said that, trying to get me to change my mind. "If we wanted to use Shay's name, should you want us to find the Hispanic equivalent?" Gabby thought about it, shaking her head. "No, no I wouldn't." I agreed with Gabby when she told me that. "Then Andrew it is my life. And you're stuck with that name."

Gabby laughed. "Just like I'm stuck with you for the rest of my life." I smiled at her. "Are you really complaining that you're stuck with Dr. Robert Chase himself?" Gabby looked up at me. "You look nothing like…" I just stared at Gabby when she said that, raising my eyebrows at her. She knows exactly what I'm talking about, I'm talking about how she told people that I look just like Jesse Spencer; the actor who plays Dr. Robert Chase in House MD. "You know, I find it kind of weird that my look alike used to be engaged to an actress who now plays a gun-wielding sheriff; while I used to be engaged to a doctor." Gabby laughed. "And your wife is pretty bad ass like said actor's ex-fiancé's career." I agreed with Gabby when she said that, running my hand (and wedding band) up and down her back while kissing her forehead softly.

"We only have 7 weeks to finish those vows by the way." I sighed when he heard Gabby tell me that, well aware of just what she's talking about. We're planning on doing a vow renewal on the beach, here in Puerto Rico in 7 weeks. However, I think we should delay it...because we haven't got time to do it right; more specifically, time to get the permits required. Now, time to mention that to Gabby. Here goes nothing. "I think we should delay the vow renewal to next year."

Pushing herself up off my chest, Gabby looked down at me. "Excuse me?"
