Chief Casey Season 1: Chicago's Newest Chief (Dawsey)

Chapter 117

Matt's POV: Once I had everything set up in the living room for me and Gabby to stay there overnight, I walked in with my phone and iPad to see that Gabby wasn't watching TV. Instead, she was just staring into space probably worried. "Gabby, you okay?" Gabby then turned to look at me and sighed. "Can you come join me? I want to talk to you for a bit. I am stressed and worried." I nodded and agreed as I went to get on the pull-out couch/bed with her before slipping under the covers and wrapping my arm around her.

Kissing the top of her head, I wrapped my arm around her back while looking down at her. "You okay Gabby? Talk to me." Gabby then sighed as she put her hand on my chest. Grabbing it, I then went to rub it while playing with her wedding band. "Talk to me babe." Gabby then sighed. "Matt, this is really hard for me. She's in premature labor. And Sylvie isn't just anybody. I mean yeah, she's my sister-in-law. But she's also my best friend and ambo partner. You might not understand but, that bond you make with your partner is really strong."

I then looked at her. "Gabby, of course I understand. I saw how close you and Shay were...and I know because of how close I was with all of my guys on truck. Mouch, Hermann and my candidates. There's a trust that comes when you run into fires together." Gabby nodded and just rubbed my chest. "I guess you do understand. But, I am scared." I nodded and when to kiss her softly. "Gabby, this is Sylvie we are talking about. She's going to fly through this easily." Gabby sighed as she just laid down in my arms and held me close.

That's when Matteo then decided to join us on the bed so he could hug Gabby. "It's okay mama, everything will be okay." Gabby smiled when he did that. "You always know exactly what I need to feel better don't you Matteo?" She then went to tickle him and I smiled as she did that because I knew it was exactly what she needed right now to cheer her up. Smiling as I went to kiss the top of her head, I just rubbed her back and made her feel so much better. "You needed this didn't you Gabby?" Gabby then nodded and smiled as she looked at me.

"Just curious, are you going to shift Tuesday?" I nodded. "Gabby, I have to. She'll be fine by then and I am sure Antonio will be home to take care of the kids." Gabby smiled and nodded as she leaned up to kiss me softly when I heard a knock on the door. "Want me to go see who it is?" Gabby nodded and agreed, letting me up. I then got up and went to see who was at the door. I saw it was Gabby's mom. "Gabby, it's your mom." Opening the door, I then looked at Camila. "Matt, what are you doing here?" Gabby then got up and walked over.

"Mom, did Antonio tell you?" Camila just looked confused. "No, I was going to see if he wanted to spend some time together. I was free and haven't seen Theo in a while." Gabby then looked at me. "Mom, come in. I need to tell you something. Then you can either stay or head to the hospital." Camila then got nervous as she stepped inside. "What happened?" Gabby sighed and looked at her. "Sylvie went into premature labor. We are staying here to take care of Theo for the night since Eva and Diego are working." Camila nodded and agreed. "Uhm, I am going to go to the hospital. Which hospital are they at just curious?"

I then turned to look at Gabby. "It was Chicago Med right?" Gabby nodded and agreed. "Yes. Mom, send them our love okay? Just go be there for Antonio and keep him calm. I don't want him you know...." Camila then looked at Gabby, knowing exactly what she meant. "Thank god there isn't alcohol at the hospital." Gabby agreed and nodded as she went to hug her mom. "Can you keep us updated on what's happening? Just let Antonio concentrate on Sylvie." Camila then nodded and agreed. "Of course. I will talk to you soon. Can I come stay the night if he kicks me out?" Matt then bit his lip. "Maybe you should just stay there. He needs someone there."

Camila agreed once again. "Good point. Do you mind if I just see my grandkids quickly while I am here and then I will get going?" I laughed and agreed. "Of course." Letting her in, I smiled as we decided to let her see the kids before she left to go to the hospital. Once she walked over to the kids, Gabby stepped close to me. "If Antonio kicks her out, we can just stay up here on the couch. She can stay in the basement." I nodded and agreed as I wrapped my arms around her before kissing her forehead. "You going to want anything for Supper?" Gabby then bit her lip and shook her head. "Not yet, I am okay. But, maybe McDonalds would be good."

Camila then turned around when she heard that. "Non sense. I am going to whip something up quickly while I am here. Then, I will bring some to Antonio and you guys can have some too." I then looked at her and nodded. "Hey, we are not complaining. Plus, it's for Antonio too." Camila then nodded and agreed as she went to take off her shoes. "Give me 30 minutes. Then I am leaving." We both agreed and nodded. Closing the door and locking up, me and Gabby then both went to sit together once again while Camila made Antonio something to eat.
