One Chicago: Health First Part 4

Chapter 1281

Matt's POV: After getting ready to leave for our walk, I smiled as we both made our way downstairs to the lobby. Holding Gabby's hand as he walked through the lobby, I couldn't wait to take her down to the ocean front. But first, we had to make a quick stop to plan some stuff for the wedding. While we did have a general idea of what we wanted to do at the cloud gate...I thought it might be a nice idea if we went there today and I let her actually explore the place. Then we can find the exact place we want to set stuff up and have guests.

Walking out, I looked out at the lake...loving how close we were while also not liking it considering it made it so much colder. That's when Gabby turned to look at me. "Remind me why exactly you chose a hotel right by the water when you knew that we would take a walk together at some point?" I laughed when she asked that and smiled. "It's because we are really close to the venue where we are having our vow renewal." Gabby then nodded and agreed. "Wait, that's where we are going aren't we?" I nodded and smiled at her.

"I want to get a lay of the land so that we have a visual of what our options are when it comes to chairs and stuff. Maybe figure out how we are going to do this. Parking and stuff." Gabby nodded and agreed as she rubbed my arm. "This is a great idea. We probably would've had a hard time doing this with Matteo. He would've wanted to run around and just play if we did this during the summer. But then again, it probably would've been nice to watch you play with him. I mean, if we did it when we was walking." I smiled at the idea and nodded.

"By the way, lord help us if we get a girl for a second child. I have a feeling that I am going to be wrapped around her little finger the moment she's born." Gabby laughed when I said that and agreed with me. "However, it'd be nice to have another boy. Just keeping our options open. It doesn't help thought that I can't get that great name out of my head. Elijah Adam Casey." I smiled when she said that because it really was a great name. "I like the name too but, I wouldn't change Matteo's name ever for that one."

Gabby smiled when I said that. "Good, because it's not happening. But, I like it because it is close to Shay's name. At least...the closest we can get for a cool boy name." I nodded and agreed while moving to kiss her head. "Helps that it just so happens to also be a unique name that not many people have. I mean, who in Chicago has the name Matteo or Elijah for that matter?" I then decided to let Gabby's hand to so that I could move my arm around her shoulders.

Gabby liked it when I did that and smiled as she moved closer to me. "Now, just a quick question...are we going to provide transportation from the cloud gate to Molly's for the reception or are we expecting people to find parking around there. Because that can really affect how many people we are inviting. It may mean limiting the number of people we can invite to the reception. We both know that there isn't very much parking down at Molly's. Heck, during our first time being married...even I struggled to find parking when I wanted to visit my wife at work. I mean, that's horrible when it's a bar."

Gabby smiled when I said that and nodded. "Yeah, we need to figure something out with that. Maybe we can work on getting Molly's 2 back up and going...then we can close the first Molly's." I then stopped walking and moved my arm away from her shoulders. I then grabbed her hand and just stared at Gabby. "You don't really mean that do you?" Gabby then sighed. "It was just an idea Matt. Don't take it seriously because I doubt that it would even happen."

I then went to step close to her before wrapping my arms around her. "Gabby, that's not why I am shocked. I am shocked because of that fact that I built that restaurant for you. I was the one that helped you fix up the place. Why in the world would you want to sell a place that we built together? A place where we've had so many memories together. Babe, it's where you told me that you were pregnant the first time! Why would you even thing about it?" That's when Gabby started to shut down. I felt her back up but stopped her by wrapping my arms around.

Bringing her into my arms, I proceeded to hold her close to my chest. "Hey, I'm sorry okay. I shouldn't have yelled at you like that." Gabby then wrapped her arms around my neck as we held each other. "I'm sorry okay?" Gabby then nodded as I set her down. I then went to grab her hand again before intertwining our fingers. That's when I felt Gabby step close to me before grabbing my jacket and moving to kiss me softly. "Matt, sorry I shut down like that. I guess I just...I don't know what happened. You know that I am still getting used to this. You know, the anxiety and OCD stuff.

I nodded and understood as I moved my hand to her hip. "And you're right though. We should even consider closing Molly's because of the memories we made there. Plus, the guys love it." I agreed and smiled at her. "Sorry for flipping out." Gabby nodded and agreed with me before turning to towards the place where we were going to get married again. "Listen, let's just head to the cloud gate and we can look around and get inspiration for the wedding we are going to have there in a few months." I nodded and agreed as I followed her towards the cloud gate.
