Hi Readers: Sorry for the delay in between chapters twenty-eight and twenty-nine. However, with how long that chapter was; I decided that I needed to take a moment to just take a rest, and to try and figure out where I can take this story after that chapter. So, here we go with the second chapter for today; but not the last, I can already promise you that. Here's Twenty-Nine.

XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

He ended up spending an entire hour working with Kelly in the office before he decided that it was enough, it was enough work for now; both because it was the weekend, and because that was not the reason that he and his wife were currently on their yacht. The couple were on their yacht so that they could be with each other, so that they could be romantic with each other; and so that they could just take it easy for a while, as their children were taken care of by their family (as well as their friends). Apparently, Jay and Alex ended up coming over for a bit this morning; that way, they could spend some time with their friend (his brother-in-law), and so that they could get some practice being parents. And from the pictures that he just got recently, they really enjoyed themselves; and even better, their dog (Max) behaved quite well around Matteo and Noah. The truth was, that was something that worried the father right when he heard from his brother-in-law that Jay and Alex came over; how the boys would react to having Max around them, without them also being there at the same time. Whether they would be scared, or whether they would be okay. But it turned out they were fine, and that Max actually made them laugh a lot. And Matt was truly happy that was the case, because that may be in his future.

Yes, Matt is looking at that option if things get worse; of getting a service dog for his PTSD, but only if things get worse and aren't taken care of with his medication. And while it's not the ideal situation when they have six week old sons (almost), they are going to keep an open mind when it comes to it; because at the end of the day, they are going to do what's best for his health. That's something that Gabby always says to him, and she in fact was the one that first brought up the idea of him getting a service dog; well, at least asking him if he was interested in getting on. But that was a while back, and it was while she was pregnant; and at the time, he said no because things weren't as bad as they are now. So, they are definitely going to have to talk about that now that he really understands his PTSD; now that they both really understand his PTSD, and what that might mean for their entire future. And since they've also decided to live at the big house permanently, they have the space; they would just have to speak to Camila first, and see whether she would be okay with them having a dog there to help him with his PTSD. But knowing her, he truly believes that she would let them.

Camila has been nothing if not kind, and very accommodating when it comes to helping him with his PTSD; she has given him the space and time that he needs, especially when it comes to him needing Gabby alone so that she can help him with his PTSD. And for her to let him do that, it's just perfect; but that doesn't mean that they always do it just because of his PTSD, he is a man after all. And let me explain what I mean by that. I mean that, there are times where Matt truly does need his wife to help him with his PTSD; but there are also times where Matt just wants to take a moment with his wife, and just make her feel loved and respected. And that is definitely what he's been doing during this entire trip, make his girl feel extremely loved and respected, which is something that she should always feel when it comes to him, because he truly does love his girl more than anything in the entire world. Another thing that he loves? The sight of her fast asleep in their bed when he walks into the room, something that she must need right now; as it's also something that he needs. He wouldn't mind taking a nap after last night, especially when it wants to hold her in his arms; against him.

Oh, the feeling of that beautiful wife of his against his chest is just perfect, and something that he always wants to have; he always wants to have Gabby against his chest, especially when she's braless (which she currently still is). And he can tell that's the case due to the fact that he doesn't see any bra straps on her shoulders. So, he decided to do exactly what he needs to do right now to join her in bed, and that's take off his shirt and then get in with her; he just knows her too much to not know that she wants him in bed, and that she wants him to hold her close while she rests in bed. And if she wakes up, then she's still going to want to have him hold her close in his arms; because it's the best way for her to wake up, and get exactly what she always wants when she wakes up. Whether it be when she wakes up first thing in the morning, or after a nap in his arms; Gabby always wants to share a kiss with him, which he is more than happy to comply with. I mean, what man doesn't want to kiss his wife whenever he can? And that's why it's time for him to get in bed, and press a soft kiss on her shoulder. But first, the shirt needs to come off so that he can get into bed with his girl.

Walking over to his side table this afternoon, Matt smiled as he proceeded to put his phone on silent as he feels like he's done enough work for today; right now, he's on a romantic vacation with his wife...and he wants to spend time with her. He wants to hold her in his arms, and he wants to make her feel really sexy; after all, she is sexy, and he is extremely happy that she's his wife. Setting his phone down on his charger shortly after putting it on silent, Matt smirked as he went ahead and took off his shirt for Gabby; something that he usually loves to let her watch, but she can't right now as she's asleep. So, she's going to have to deal with it, and he may have to apologize for not giving her a chance to watch him do it. Folding up his shirt after taking it off, Matt proceeded to set it down on his side table; after which, Matt looked at the beautiful woman he's lucky to call his wife. He then went ahead and opened the covers, before climbing into bed with the woman he loves more than anything; his gorgeous wife, Gabriela Marie Casey.

Slowly (and quietly) slipping into bed with his wife, Matt smiled as he got close to her so that they can hold each other; so that he can hold the woman he loves more than anything in his arms, as she takes a nap in their bed. Just slipping over in bed behind his beautiful wife, Matt smiled as he closed the covers up top of him and Gabby; after which, he wrapped his arms around Gabby and just held her in his arms. Kissing her back as he brought her back against his chest, Matt smiled due to the fact that he was quite happy right now; he was happy as he was holding his wife in his arms, as she took a really nice nap. And there really is nothing like the feeling of him holding her in his arms, both for the husband and the wife. However, what Matt never wanted was for Gabby to wake up when he got in bed with her; and that was exactly what happened. "So, how did work go?" Matt was a bit shocked when he heard Gabby ask him right away about work, which is something that he never really expects her to do. "Did you really just ask me about work, while we're in bed with each other?" Rolling over in her loving husband's arms, Gabby smiled as she slipped close to the man she loves.

At the same time, Matt wrapped his arms around Gabby while they held each other close; after which, Gabby put her hand on his face and smiled at the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. Leaning in, Matt smirked as he kissed his beautiful wife softly. Just taking things nice and slow with the woman of his dreams, Matt smirked due to the fact that this is everything that he wants right now. "So, you ended up falling asleep?" Gabby agreed with Matt as he asked her whether she fell asleep while he was gone. "Yeah, I did." Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, smiling at her. "How are you feeling? You tired?" Gabby smiled as she heard Matt ask her whether she was tired. "Yeah, I was asleep when my loving husband decided to wake me up." Matt sighed as he heard Gabby say that, before tugging her body against his chest; after which, Gabby put her hand on his cheek and then leaned in to kiss him softly. "Sorry I had to work today." Gabby looked at Matt when he said that. "What was wrong anyways?" Matt sighed. "I needed to put some money in Casey Fire." Gabby looked at Matt when he said that. "What? I thought we already dealt with that." Matt sighed.

"Apparently, I didn't do it. And the contract was in jeopardy because we didn't pay, and then we fixed it when I paid money." Gabby agreed with Matt when he told her that, smiling as she put her hand on Matt's face. She then leaned in and proceeded to kiss him softly. "Which project?" Matt smirked as he leaned in and kissed his wife. "The Shay." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, glad that was the project. She then leaned her forehead against his, before smiling as she kissed Matt again. Just taking things nice and slow with the man of her dreams. She then grabbed the back of his head and smiled as she got close to her husband. "I love you so much, and I am so glad that you're back here." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, before smiling as he leaned in and kissed the woman he loves more than anything. After which, he took things nice and slow with his girl. "Did I ever tell you just how beautiful you are? And just how much I really love you more than anything in the entire world?" Gabby smiled when she heard Matt say that. "I love you too, and I am so glad that you're back in my arms. I missed you." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, before smiling.

Tugging her body against his chest, Matt smirked as he brought her topless body against his chest. "I love the fact that you're topless." Gabby smirked as she heard Matt say that, before putting her hands on his face; after which, she leaned in and proceeded to kiss the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. Wrapping her arms around Matt's neck, Gabby smiled as she got nice and close to the man of her dreams. After which, Matt wrapped his arms around her back and brought her against his chest; and that's definitely something that the both of them enjoyed, because Gabby was braless. There's just something about the feeling of her husband's toned chest against her breasts, which she enjoys; at the same time, Matt really enjoys the feeling of her breasts on his chest. Wrapping his arms around her lower back, Matt smiled as he leaned in and proceeded to kiss Gabby softly. Taking things nice and slow with his girl, Matt smiled due to the fact that this is everything he's ever wanted in life. He's wanted to have a loving wife, and two beautiful children: yet there's going to be so much more to the future. "So, are you done business for today?"

Matt smirked when he heard Gabby ask him that, because he definitely things that he knows what she wants. "I can only assume that there's a reason why you're asking me that?" Gabby agreed with Matt when he asked her that, before getting close to her dreamy husband; after which, she wrapped her arms around his neck and just smiled at him. After which, she pressed herself against his bulge. Smirking as Gabby did that, Matt knew what she wanted. "What do you say we save that for later? We can do it tonight until we fall asleep? You look tired anyways." Gabby sighed when Matt said that, before running her hand down his body and going to play with his boxers. "Thanks for being so nice." Matt smiled when he heard Gabby say that, before tugging her against his chest; he then went to grab the covers and tugged them up on top of the both of them. "Baby, you need to rest. You were fast asleep when I came in." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before smiling as she wrapped her arms around his toned chest. At the same time, Matt ran his hand down her arm and then leaned in to kiss her softly. Just taking things slow with Gabby, Matt smiled as he was happy.

He then whispered to the woman he loves so that he can ask he how she's feeling right now. "You need to sleep some more? Because I'm more than happy to let you sleep some more baby." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt tell her that she can sleep some more if she wants, because that's definitely something that she's interested in. She wants to sleep some more due to the fact that she is pretty tired. "I don't know why I'm so tired." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, before moving to play with the lingerie that she was currently wearing. "I think it may just be you being overtired with the stress and everything." Gabby agreed with her husband when he told her that, before getting close to her husband. Wrapping his arm around Gabby shortly afterwards, Matt smiled as he turned his head and then kissed her forehead softly, which then lead to Gabby turning her head and looking up at the man she loves more than anything in the entire world, her dreamy businessman husband Matthew James Casey.

Bending down, Matt smiled as he is really happy too; especially since he's currently in bed with his beautiful wife. Moving her hand to Matt's cheek as she kisses him, Gabby smiled due to the fact that she is extremely happy right now. There's just something about the way that Matt is currently holding her in her arms right now that makes her very happy. "What do you think the boys are doing right now?" Matt laughed as he heard Gabby ask him whether thinks the boys are doing, because he actually knows what they're doing. "They just got put down for a nap, I checked because I got an alert on the camera app." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before rolling over so that she could look at the boys. Realizing what Gabby was doing, Matt just laid back and let her do it; after all, he did just do it. Gabby then went to open her phone, and just smiled as she proceeded to check the cameras. After which, she went ahead and checked on the boys so that she can see how they are. She then just smiled at the side of her incredible sons.

That's when she saw somebody set the boys down. "There you go Matteo, have a good nap buddy." Not recognizing that voice at first, Gabby got nervous. "Who is that? I don't recognize that voice." Matt got nervous too, and then went to go grab the phone; after which, he went to push the button. "Who are you, and what are you doing with my son?" Hearing them laugh, Matt and Gabby got scared. "I'll call you in a second Matt. Let me just step out of Matteo's room." Matt and Gabby were both nervous, waiting for the call.

XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

They were sitting on pins and needles as they waited for the call to come in, the call from the person who was just putting Matteo in his crib. That's when they saw that it was Jay. Turning to look at Gabby, Matt saw some relief on her face. "It was Jay." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before watching as Matt went to answer the call. "Hey." Jay could tell by the tone of Matt's voice that he was worried. "Let me guess, you were worried that your sons were victims of kidnapping?" Gabby got scared as she heard Jay say that, because that was the last thing that she wanted to hear. "Hey, that's never going to happen baby. Remember that we have security, and that the boys are safe with our family right now." Jay agreed with Matt when he said that. "And your brother is here, with a loaded gun. Me and him finally got the guns that we ordered." Matt was confused when he heard Jay say that. "For work?" Jay laughed. "For fun. Maybe for work eventually, we have to figure that out. Would you be okay selling..." Matt stopped him. "No, we are not selling guns at my company. I am not selling guns, which can kill; because I don't want to be part of a mass shooting!"

Rubbing her husband's back, Gabby could see that she was worried right now. "You okay baby?" Matt took a breath and agreed with Gabby as she asked him whether she was okay. "Yeah, I'm okay. Sorry, I am not thinking about that." Jay agreed with the both of them. "Listen, I'm sorry. Just know that we didn't use company money for it." Matt agreed with Jay when he said that. "Thanks for letting me know." Jay agreed with Matt when he said that. "Listen, I'm sorry about all of this. But listen, me and Alex were just visiting with Antonio to work on Casey Police. But he's done for today, because he's going out with his kids; meanwhile, we're going to go out for a bit. We practiced being parents though, and that was definitely something that we liked doing." Gabby agreed with Jay when he said that. "Well, you can definitely do it whenever you want. But listen, we're going to let you go; and I want to just concentrate on my wife who wants to take a nap." Jay agreed with Matt when he said that. "Okay, well have fun guys." Matt and Gabby agreed with Jay when he told them to have fun, before going to hang up; afterwards, Matt went to set his phone down on his side table.

Turning to look at Gabby again, Matt smiled at her; after which, she laid down in their bed and just got comfortable. At the same time, Matt laid down next to his wife while getting close to her. He then proceeded to tug her body against his chest, smiling the entire time. He then watched as Gabby wrapped her arms around his torso and slip her legs in between his, all while he wrapped his arm around her back. Just looking down at his wife, Matt smiled as he bent down and then proceeded to kiss her softly. Putting her hand on Matt's face, Gabby smiled due to the fact that this is everything that she wants right now. "I love you." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that she loves him, before moving his hand to her hip; afterwards, Gabby wrapped her arms around his torso again and just cuddled up to her loving husband. Kissing her forehead softly, Matt smiled due to the fact that this is everything that he wants. He just wants to hold the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world close to him, and that is exactly what he's in the midst of doing.

Pressing his lips to her forehead once again, Matt smiled as he whispered to Gabby. "I'm glad that we got away, I am so happy to just be alone with you; this time is incredible." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, smiling as she looked up at the man of her dreams. After which, she leaned up and kissed him softly. Taking things nice and slow with each other, Matt and Gabby both smirked due to the fact that this is everything that they want to be doing right now. Matt then pulled away from the kiss, and pressed his lips to her forehead once again; leaving a soft kiss on it, Matt just smiled due to the fact that she's really happy. "I love you so much, and I am so glad that this is what we're in the midst of doing." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before smiling as she felt the same way. And really, there's nothing like this time alone that they're going to be enjoying for the entire time they're on their family yacht today. "Have a good nap okay Gabby?" Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, smiling as that was exactly what she did.

She had a good nap, while sleeping in her dreamy husband's arms right now; and not just sleep, but also had a really nice dream.
