Chapter 16: I Know What I Want
[NO EDITED]
*Matt's POV*
I couldn't help but smile when I woke up the next day with Gabby sleeping in my arms, to be honest I never felt better then I am feelings right now. I know it was wrong for me to even say that but it was true something about right now was so peaceful. She looked so peaceful sleeping having no worries or anything. The only thing in my mind right now was that hopefully we would be able to see Andy today so Gabby could be happy. Last night I was a little pissed after hearing the great news that my son was okay, Lauren had called me upset that she got home and I was not there and that she thought that I was still mad at her so she thought that I would be at the firehouse so she went there but was shocked when she didn't see me there and apparently Clarke was there and told her that I was in the hospital with Dawson and also told her how I didn't have to stay there but insisted on staying there.
She was furious at me and screaming at me over the phone and kept telling me that I had to go home because we had a lot to talk about and we just couldn't leave it how we left it. To be honest I didn't want to see Lauren right now the only thing on my mind was the Gabby and Andy were going to be okay. After explaining or trying to explain that I was not going to leave I hung up on her tired of hearing her right. I dont know why but lately I got irritated a lot by her especially after her pulling her little stunt with my son. I tried to calm down before going back in the room. I didn't want to upset Gabby we were finally on good terms right now. She was surprised to see that I would be spending the night there with her but I couldn't leave her alone and to know that we were able to see our son tomorrow morning I would not miss it for the world.
I was more surprised to see her moving on the bed when she seen that I would be sleeping on the chair and for her to tell me that I could sleep with here on the bed made my night. I dont know what was happening with me but I started to see things differently. Gabby and Andy were the only thing on my mind 24/7. All I wanted to do was spend my time with them. The next morning when I woke up I seen that Gabby sleeping and I didn't want to interrupt her so I quietly got off the bed and put on my shoes before walking out of the room. I was laughing by myself thinking about last night. She had fallen asleep in my arms right away and didn't eve wake up when the doctors and nurses came to check up on her 2 times in the night. She must have been really tired, but then again when we were married she would never wake up with the alarm she was always a heavy sleeper. After her last check up at 5 in the morning I asked the doctor if it was alright for me to bring her food.
He said it would be fine so I as soon as I walked out of her room I went to my car and drove the nearest McDonald's she really love McDonald's breakfast. So after getting breakfast I went back to the hospital and when I walked in I was surprised to see Dawson awake already and she was smiling. "Good morning" I said and she smiled at me "Morning I thought you had left" she told me which confused me. "Of course not you're such a heavy sleeper you didn't even know when the doctors and nurses came in to check on you." I told her, we both laughed at that, I opened her breakfast and then we began to eat, I dont know why I just felt right in that moment. After having breakfast we were getting ready to go visit Andy since we were given the okay, but as we were gonna go see him the last person I would have thought to see had knocked and now was standing in front of us.
"Lauren what are you doing here?" I asked her. Dawson looked completely confused which I had to admit I was too. "I came to see how Andy was doing I was worried so I decided to see if there was anything I can help in?" she asked as she put her purse on a chair by her. "What is this some king of sick joke of yours?" Dawson asked her. "No of course not Gabby I just wanted to see how Andrew is doing I really want to help." Lauren said. "Okay you know what I think we need to talk outside, Gabby please please just wait for me so we can go see Andy together Ill be right back" I told her and with that I followed Lauren out the room. "What the hell is your problem?" I asked her once I closed the door to the room. She looked confused for a minute before she answered "I already told you I was only worried about your son Im sorry for even bothering you but considering that I am your fiancée I didn't think it would be a problem" I was about to say something when she began to cry. I felt bad afterwards "Lauren please dont cry okay Im sorry but I dont see why you would come here after what you did it's just a rough time for Dawson and seeing you here well that isn't help its best for you to leave" I told her. "How about you when will you leave? You haven't been home and I miss you" she told me as she got closer to me and tried to hug me but of course I pushed her away.
"Are you serious right now, my son is in the hospital right now and all you care about is how I haven't been home lately well no Im not going home anytime soon I need to be here for my son" I told her. "Dont you mean for Gabby" that was the final straw. "You see why we cannot have a conversation without fighting because all you keep thinking about is Gabby right now the only person on my mind is Andy so lets leave it here before I say something I dont want to say" and with I walked back inside the room. Gabby looked confused but I just smiled I wasnt going to let Lauren's little visit ruin the happiness I was feeling about seeing Andy today. We had to wait another 20 minutes before a nurse walked in and told us to follow her. She left us in front of a room which was Andy's and I could tell Gabby was nervous so I intertwined our hands and gave her a smile and kiss on the cheek.
We walked in to see our son laying on the bed we thought he was asleep so we walked in quietly I let Gabby sit on the chair by the bed and we sat there in silence. We were just there with our eyes closes when we heard Andy call us. "Momma, Daddy?" he said and when I opened my eyes I seen him looking at us and I couldn't keep my happiness and immediately hugged him and Gabby. He of course laughed "Daddy I cant breath" he said and I immediately let him go "Sorry bud Im just so happy to see that you are okay" I explained to him. "What happened to me momma?" he asked her. When he asked her that she couldn't stop and began to cry. "Im so sorry baby it was all my fault" she said and I rubbed her back "No bud its wasnt momma's fault it was just a bad accident" I said. I looked at her and was explaining but in reality I was comforting her because it wasnt if anybody was at fault it had to be me for even letting Lauren do this.
We spent the next hour with Andy laughing and trying to make him feel better it was until later when a nurse walked in and told us that Gabby had to rest as well as Andy and that tomorrow we could come and visit him again. As we walked back to Gabby's room she stopped and looked at me "Thank you for being here I know you dont have to be but it really means a lot for you to be here" she said and I dont know why but I leaned in and kissed her. I could tell that I took her by surprise because at first she didn't kiss me back but after the shock was gone she started to kiss me back too. I dont know why but it felt right kissing her again, I think I still loved Gabby but I was to stubborn to realize it. I know I screwed everything up when I left but I finally knew what I wanted, I wanted my family Gabby and Andy I wanted to be there for them and I wanted to have more kids with Gabby when I seen my future she was there not Lauren not any other women just Gabby and I would do anything to get them back...
