Dawsey: Starting a Family Part 2

Chapter 224

A Couple Hours later when Matt & Gabby are home:
Matt's POV: As I walk around me and Gabby's bedroom after getting undressed, I smiled when I saw Gabby in the bathroom. Seeing she was struggling with the dress she was wearing, I decided to walk up behind her. Gabby said she would help me grieve and I assumed that meant intimately because she was being very seductive when talking to me. That's when I saw Gabby crying a bit while going to undo her dress. "You seem the be the one that needs more consoling right now. You just want me to hold you in bed for a while babe?"

Gabby then looked at me in the mirror when I said that and sighed. "I am a mess right now. Sorry I haven't been completely honest with how I am feeling today." I then nodded before going to help her take off her dress. Bending down to pick it up off the ground, I then went to set it down on the counter before stepping close to her. Putting my hands on her stomach, I went to kiss Gabby and whispered to her. "Gabby, it's me. Talk to me babe. What's going on in that head of yours and how are you feeling?" Gabby then just hugged me while tearing up.

Deciding to pick her up in my arms, I went to cradle her in my arms before feeling her wrap her arms around my neck. "You want me to just carry you to bed and we can hold each other close?" Gabby nodded when I said that, obviously a little emotional when it came to that. Grabbing her dress and then carrying it out with me, I just kissed her forehead softly while I prepared to get in bed with Gabby. I wanted to make her feel better and I didn't care how I had to do that. It was my job to make her feel better and that was exactly what I planned on doing.

Setting her dress down in the hamper on my way out, I just continued to carry Gabby to bed because I knew that was exactly what she needed right now. Us to just sit in bed together. Opening the covers and going to set her down in bed, I then went to look at her while grabbing her hand. "You want me to get you something to eat before I join you in bed or do you want me to just get in bed now?" Gabby then looked up at me and nodded, obviously still feeling quite sad. Going to get in bed with her, I wrapped my arm around her and held her close.

Looking at her as I went to close the covers, I moved to kiss her forehead when I felt her tear up a bit. "God, today was so hard. I have been trying to keep my emotions in check but I think that I am finally done trying." I nodded when she said that before going to kiss her forehead. "Gabby, you didn't have to do that today. If you needed to cry, you should have." Gabby then shook her head. "Not when I am pregnant. I didn't want to embarrass myself, you or steal the attention away from the funeral by being a complete mess today." I nodded when she said that.

And while I didn't really completely understand, I tried my best to understand as much as possible so that I could support Gabby properly and to the best of my abilities. Feeling her rub my chest, I then went to kiss the top of her head before whispering to her. "Do you think you are going to need to go see Chaplain Orlovsky? I can set it up if you want to go see somebody." Gabby then shook her head when I said that. "Right now, what I need the most is my husband to just hold me close and let me grieve in my own way." I nodded when she said that.

I nodded when she said that before kissing the top of her head. "And what exactly does that entail." Going to grab her hand, I went to intertwine our fingers while looking into her eyes. Gabby then decided to climb on top of me and tugged me up. "God, are we really thinking about doing this?" I then went to move my hands to her stomach while sitting up and then going to kiss her softly. "There are many ways to grieve. What if ours is by making love?" Gabby then looked at me. "We still haven't celebrated you becoming chief after all."

I shook my head when she said that. "No, we haven't...have we?" Moving my hands up her back, I went to grab her body before going to unclip her bra while I kissed her slowly. "Gabby, just tell me what you want me to do right now." Grabbing the back of my head, Gabby brought my lips to her neck and the top of her chest. "Matt, make me forget about what happened today. Remind me how much you love me and our family." I nodded and smirked when she said that before going to help her take off her bra. Throwing it to the side, I smirked while holding her.

"Want me to lay you down or are you okay here for now?" Gabby then went to push me down in bed and hovered over me. "Give me your full attention babe." I nodded when she said that and then went to kiss her softly before rolling over on top of her. Closing the covers again, I went to grab her waist and just smiled while going to grab her underwear. "Last chance to back out. I am currently in the mindset where I am going to get my girl all to myself right now." Gabby smiled when I said that and nodded. "Remind me how much you love me babe." I nodded and agreed.

Reaching under the covers, I smiled as I went to take off her underwear before doing the same with my boxers. I then went to hover over her and wrapped my arm around her head. "Gabby, I promise that I am always going to be here for you and the kids. You never have to worry about that." Gabby smiled while I said that and nodded when I started to give her pleasure. "Oh Matt." I smiled when I started to give her a bit of pleasure. "Oh, you like that don't you?" Gabby nodded. "God, you are so good at that." I smirked when she said that before going to kiss her again.

Taking it slow with her, I smiled as we both just held each other close. Feeling her run her hand down my chest and then wrapping her arms around my back, I could tell that Gabby was enjoying the fact that we were alone in bed right now. Even though this was not the most conventional way to grieve...I wouldn't grieve with Gabby any other way. Moving my hand to her stomach, I rubbed it and stroke it with my thumb while kissing Gabby very slowly to remind her just how loved she is by me and the babies. "Gabby, I want to tell you something okay?"

Gabby then nodded when I said that. "What is it babe?" I then went to look into her eyes. "I want to tell you that I promise right here, right now...even though I am going to take over the firehouse, my priority in life will always be you and the kids. You, Louie, Andy, Emily and MJ are my whole world and nothing will ever come in between us. I promise you that here and now." Gabby smiled when I said that and then went to kiss me softly. "I like hearing that. And honestly, I always knew that." I agreed and smiled before going to kiss her again. "I love you Gabby."

"I love you too Matt." Gabby then went to kiss me again as we took it slow with each other. And honestly, this was exactly what I needed. Just time alone, in bed with my girl as we mourned Boden just the two of us. Sure, we were parents but...this is what we need now, just to hold each other close and remember that we are in this together for the rest of our lives.
