Matt's POV: Once I finished getting ready for bed, I smiled as I looked at Gabby as she laid down in bed wearing her underwear and one of my shirts. Walking over to bed, I laughed and just smiled at her. "Why must you be such a tease when it comes to wearing one of my shirts as your PJ shirt?" Gabby then turned to look at me while looking at the shirt. "Oh, this is your shirt...I didn't know." I laughed when she said that before going to lean over her. "Oh yeah, sure you didn't." I then went to kiss her and smiled as I held her close to me.

Gabby smiled when I did that before slipping her legs in between mine. Putting my hand on her stomach, I smiled as I went to show our triplets a little bit of love from their daddy. "Hi little ones, how are you three tonight? Sorry I didn't have my hand on mommy's stomach much today...I was busy playing with your brother." I then went to kiss her stomach softly. "You are going to love your brother...he is the kindest, most loving and adorable boy in the entire world. And we are not just saying that because we are his parents." 

I then took a breath and smiled. "I am saying that because it is the truth. You see, families comes in all shapes and sizes. You little ones are going to have lots of aunts and uncles...because we are first responders and that makes us family with a lot of firefighters and paramedics. But we don't care if they aren't related to us...they are in our hearts and that's all that matters. The same goes for your older brother...your mom might not have given birth to him, but we love him as if she did because he is our first child together. His name is Louie."

Gabby smiled when I said that and then went to run her fingers through my hair. Pushing my head up, she looked into my eyes. "I think they can hear you from up here. Come back up here and just hold me. Talk while looking at me because it is much sweater." I nodded and agreed with her as I went to lay down next to her more. Putting my hand on her stomach as I moved close to her, I then smiled at her while kissing her softly and stroking her stomach. "Family for us means everything. We were never supposed to have this family, you are our miracles."

I then went to kiss Gabby again. "You are my miracle, always have been." Gabby smiled when I said that and then grabbed my hand. "And I know this is out of the blue but someday, I want to marry you in a real ceremony." Gabby laughed when I said that and nodded. "God, that would be something eh? Us getting married in like a church or something." I nodded and agreed with her. "I am sure that would be amazing. What do you think about that?" Gabby smiled and agreed with me. "I love that idea. Maybe we can do it at the same church Cruz is doing his wedding at."

Gabby then looked at me. "Speaking of Cruz, do you know whether he is going to have guests at his wedding?" I shrugged because I honestly didn't know. "I just know that I am going because I am going to be a groomsman." Gabby then looked at me. "Right, I think we asked if I can be in the wedding." I nodded when she said that. "And I told Cruz that the only woman...other than our daughter in the future...that I am walking down a wedding aisle is you." Gabby smiled when I said that and nodded while going to look into my eyes.

I then decided to give her a quick kiss which ended up turning into something very passionate. Pulling away, I looked at Gabby and smiled. "Listen, I am going to shut my lamp off. Then, we can just do that until we fall asleep okay?" Gabby nodded when I said that. Rolling over in bed, I smiled as I went to shut off my lamp. Once that was done, I rolled back over and put my hand on her stomach. Moving her hand to my chest, Gabby moved close to me and then kissed me softly. "I love you." I smiled when she said that. "I love you too."

Taking it slow with her, I smiled as me and Gabby just took our time, holding each other close while sharing a passionate kiss until we fell asleep in each other's arms that night.
