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

Chapter 141

Matt's POV: Once I finished getting dressed after our shower, I went to sit on the edge of the bed to put on my watch when I saw Gabby come out in some skinny jeans as well as a loose top. Turning to look at her, I was impressed. "Okay, that was unexpected. I know you say that you are loosing weight...we just talked about that in the shower. But, I didn't expect skinny jeans." Gabby nodded. "I want to start getting used to it again. Just need to hide the baby fat a bit." Gabby then went to grab a shirt that was loose as well as a jacket. 

Walking over to her as she put the shirt on, I then went to wrap my arms around her while she looked in the mirror. "You never need to hide the baby fat okay? In fact, I like seeing it for a while because of what it represents to me." Gabby then turned to look at me, a bit confused. "It represents that you were able to give birth to our son and that you survived. Babe, remember...we never expected to have a second biological child together. It was too risky. So don't feel ashamed about the fat, feel proud about it."

Gabby smiled when I said that before stepping close to me. Grabbing my jacket, she brought me close and just looked up into my eyes. Pushing a strand of hair behind her ear, I was about to kiss her when I heard Matteo run upstairs. "Papa, I hungry." I then saw him jump on the bed and start hopping. "Yeah, you look like a hungry rabbit. Want some carrots." I then went to catch him as he jumped before laying him down on the bed and moving to tickle him while kissing his cheek. Gabby then smiled when I did that. "Awh."

I then turned to look at her and smiled. "Hey, this is what I live for." I then turned to look at Matteo before bending down to kiss him softly. "I love you Matteo. Now listen, we have a surprise for you. What do you say you go for a sleepover at Grandma's for 2 nights?" Matteo then looked at me and smiled. "Grandma Nancy?" I nodded and smiled. "Yes, unless you want to go see your friends. But, we were planning on staying at the firehouse tonight." Matteo nodded and smiled. "Grandma Nancy!" I then smiled when he said that.

I then went to get up and smiled at Gabby. "She should be here soon. How about you go help him pack some bags? Meanwhile, I have to go switch the babies' car seats over to the Tesla since we are taking that." Gabby smiled and agreed. "Don't forget that I am driving today! You promised that the next time we take the Tesla anywhere that I would get to drive it!" I nodded and agreed before going to go downstairs. "Breakfast here or at the firehouse?" Gabby then thought about it. "Your mom is going to make it isn't she?"

I was about to answer when I heard the doorbell ring. "Matteo, want to go open the door for grandma with Daddy? Think you can get the babies' stuff packed? Clothes and stuff?" Gabby smiled and nodded. "Matt, go spend time with your mom and offer her a coffee. I will take care of this stuff. Anyways, you have your weekly meeting this morning." I nodded and remembered that. "Right. Now just curious, am I announcing your return as my part-time secretary? I mean, when we are on shift...would you do that?" 

Gabby smiled and nodded. "Of course I can do that." I smiled and nodded when she said that. "Listen, I am going downstairs to make breakfast. Don't be long." Gabby nodded. "We already packed last night a bit remember? Well, I did. Plus, I already did some when I fed them earlier this morning." I agreed and smiled. "What do you want for breakfast?" Gabby then smiled. "Just a bagel. Now go be with your mom. Oh and bring Matteo's bag downstairs. We already packed it too. I mean, I hope you did." I agreed and nodded. "I promise, I keep one packed."

Gabby smiled. "Now get going before I take you back to the shower." I then smirked as I walked up to her, brought her close to me and then kissed her softly. "Not opposed to that. See you downstairs." Walking downstairs to go see my mom, I couldn't help but smile the entire way. "Oh and change the car seats over!" I agreed. "Thanks!" I then smiled as I made my way downstairs.
