Chapter Forty-Nine: Emilia and Andy

18 2 0
By OneChicagobyA

Hello Readers: I hope that you guys are okay that I am starting late, but there is a good reason as to why I am starting late; and that's due to the fact that I had an interview today, which I believe went really well. Now, I am not going to waste anymore time in making you wait for chapters. So, here with go with Chapter Forty-Nine, a reply to the dream; a reply that will start with a bit of confusion.
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Emilia Marie Casey. That was such a beautiful name, and it most certainly was a name that Matt would definitely enjoy calling his daughter for the rest of her life; and he can already think of some cute nicknames in his head as to what he can call his daughter, nicknames such as Emi. And boy did Matt like the sound of him calling his future daughter that, each and every day for the rest of his life. But he also liked the other name that he just thought about in his head, and that name was Andy. But no, that was not going to be the name of Emilia's twin brother; rather, it was going to be the name he may use for his future service dog for PTSD. And while he isn't too sure about that (even though Gabby said that she'd be okay with him having a service dog), he'll still have to look into it; and just what it may mean for his future. But there was one thing that he most definitely was not going to have to ever reconsider, and that was the name that he wants to use for the name of his and Gabby's (hypothetical) future daughter; Miss Emilia Marie Casey.

And that name was Emilia Marie Casey, the name that he was thinking of from the start right now. But there was just something about the name, the name Emilia Marie, that made him feel like that was going to be his daughter's name. Of course, that didn't mean that it was a done deal; as he (of course) still had to speak to Gabby about what she thinks, as "Emilia" wouldn't just be his daughter. Rather, she would also be Gabby's daughter. And if they ended up having a daughter, then he most certainly wanted to have the ability to say the name Emilia for the rest of his life. So much so, that he decided to say the name right now to say he could hear it for the first time. "Emilia" However, Matt saying that name did not please his wife whatsoever; especially not when she's about to suck on his chest (and because she also just name love to her husband). So, here Gabby was, naked on her loving husband's chest; only to head another female name while she was in the midst of doing this. And boy did that make Gabby mad (and jealous) because it was not her name.

And that was something that she was going to make clear to her husband. "Who's Emilia? And why are you saying HER name, when you're naked, in bed, with me; your WIFE!" Looking down at his wife when she said that, Matt got a bit nervous; however, not as nervous as he would've been in the past. And that's due to the fact that Gabby should already know that there's nobody else that he wants to be with, especially since they just renewed their vows; Gabby will be his wife for the rest of his life, and that's something that he can already promise his wife. That she will be his wife for the rest of his life, which is something that she is about to be reminded on; especially when he would NEVER be caught dead cheating on his wife, for the simple fact that his brother-in-law is a boxer. "Okay, first of all; let me remind you that your brother is a boxer, and I would never do anything that would cause him to get mad a me. Nor would I do anything that would case him to wreck my face when I am now a Chief Executive Officer." Gabby then thought about it.

And she agreed with him, before hearing Matt point some other things out. "Also, I think we both know that I need you in my life babe. You know me the best, and you also know my past; Gabby, I want you to look up at me okay?" Gabby looked up at her husband when he told her that, before proceeding to look up into his eyes. "Baby, I want you to remember that I don't just want to be with you." Going to grab his wife's hand, Matt proceeded to put her hand on his chest; after which, Matt stroked it with his thumb and looked down into his eyes. "I need you Gabby. You know about my past, and you're the only one that can really help me with my PTSD. If I started dating somebody else, I would have to say all of that; and I think we both know that's not easy to me." Gabby agreed with her husband when he told her that, before proceeding to slip up his muscular chest; after which, she wrapped her arms around him and rolled over (while tugging Matt with her). At the same time, Matt rolled over and proceeded to lay down on his side too.

After which, he wrapped his arm around his gorgeous wife and tugged her against his chest. Wrapping her arms around Matt's back, Gabby smiled as she slipped her legs in between his and then looked up into his eyes; at the same time, Matt put his hand on the side of Gabby's face and stroked her cheek with his thumb. Leaning his forehead against Gabby's, Matt whispered to her. "Gabby, you're my girl; and that will always be the case. Promise me that you will never be jealous, and never think that way right away ever again. You're my wife, the love of my life; and you're also the mother of my children: Matteo, Noah, and someday...to our baby girl Emilia." Gabby then started to realize what he was thinking of, and why he just said that name. "I just had a dream of our future, and I wanted to say the name. I wanted to hear what the name would sound like out loud, and I loved the name." Gabby laughed as Matt said that, before proceeding to kiss the man she loves more than anything in the entire world; Matthew James Casey, her loving husband.

Running her hand down Matt's back, Gabby smiled as she leaned in and proceeded to kiss the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world; which is something that she was so glad that she had the right to do, because she wants to be the only woman that ever gets a chance to do with her amazing husband. Moving his finger to Gabby's back, Matt smiled as he ran his finger up and down her back. And let's just say that was definitely something that Gabby really enjoyed. Wrapping his arm around Gabby some more, Matt smiled as he kissed his beautiful wife softly. "So, you want to tell me more about that dream that you just had? The one that you just had, and that led to this horrible conversation that we just had with each other?" Matt agreed with his wife when she said that. "What timeline are we looking at?" Matt smirked when he heard Gabby say that, before putting his hand on her hip. "Well, here's the thing; this round of intimacy that we just had, it may be the thing that leads to us getting pregnant with our baby girl Emilia Marie Casey."

Gabby was shocked when she heard Matt say that, before looking at him. "Wait, when did we have our daughter by?" Matt smirked. "Our baby girl was three days old in my dream, which took place on my birthday next year. And there was something called COVID." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before smiling at her husband. "Wow, that would be fast; three kids within a year." Matt laughed when he heard Gabby say that, before correcting her. "Actually, it'd be within 11 months of each other. Matteo and Noah were born on April 21st, Emilia would've been born on March 21st in my dream." Gabby then thought about it, and boy was she shocked. "Damn, that would be fast." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, before moving his hand up and down her back. At the same time, he stroked her back and just looked into her eyes. Leaning in, Matt smiled as he proceeded to kiss the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. That's when he heard some grumbling in Gabby's stomach. "I heard somebody's hungry."

Gabby laughed as she heard Matt say that, well aware that he just heard her stomach. "But first, I need to tell you about someone else that we had in my dream." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before smiling at her dreamy husband. "And who would that be?" Matt smiled when Gabby asked him that. "Andy." Gabby was confused when she heard Matt say that. "Who's Andy?" Matt smirked when he heard Gabby ask him who Andy was. "He was my late best friend." Gabby then pushed Matt, well aware of who that was; especially since that was most definitely not the question that she was asking him, she was talking about in the dream. "Unless Andy came back from the dead, then we both know that's not what I'm talking about." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, before smiling at his beautiful wife. Leaning in, Matt smirked as he proceeded to kiss the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "That would be my Golden Retriever service dog for my PTSD." Gabby just looked at Matt and thought about it.

"Are you starting to think about it some more?" Matt took a breath when Gabby asked him whether he was thinking about it more, because he wasn't sure about it. Looking into her eyes, Matt bit his lip before nodding; this definitely being something that he wants to talk about it, because it's really on his mind. "Especially since all of this started, and just how scared I am right now." Gabby looked at Matt when he said that. "You're scared baby? Why didn't you tell me that?" Matt looked down as he put his hand on Gabby's arm, and just stroked it with his thumb. "I don't want you to see me as weak." Getting close to her husband, Gabby put her hand on his cheek and then leaned in to kiss him softly. Taking things slow with her husband, Gabby shook her head. "Listen, I want you to get us some clothes; then I will get us some food okay? You just stay here and just relax." Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, before smiling as he kissed her softly. Taking things nice and slow with the man she loves, Gabby smirked. "I love you."

Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, smiling at his girl. "I love you too Gabby, and I am so glad that you're already thinking positively about this." Gabby just looked at Matt as he said that, before going to grab his hand. "Hey, look at me." Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, before staring into her eyes. "Baby, I will always think about this positively; you are my husband, and I want to do whatever I can do make sure that you're okay. I mean that from the bottom of my heart, and I will always make sure that's the case; so please do not ever think that I am not going to do anything and everything I can to make sure that you're okay, because I also want to make sure that we do everything that we do everything we can as a couple to make sure that you're PTSD is under control." Matt agreed with Gabby when she said that, before smiling as he put his hand on her neck; after which, he leaned in and proceeded to kiss the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "I love you." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that.

"I love you too Matt." Matt then smirked as he rolled over in bed, before sitting up and bending down so that he can go grab his boxers. He then proceeded to pick them up, and just smiled as he went to tug them up; after which, he heard Gabby tug the sheets up while also moving over. Turning around to face his gorgeous wife once she was laying down on her side of the bed, Matt smiled as he looked down at his extremely beautiful wife. After which, he moved to put his hand on her neck. Staring down into Gabby's eyes, Matt smirked as he bent down and proceeded to start taking things nice and slow with the woman he loves; who just so happens to also be the future mother of his daughter. Leaning his forehead against hers, Matt smiled as he proceeded to whisper to Gabby. "I can't wait to have another baby with you." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, as that most definitely was something that she was thinking about. "Can we talk about all of that when you're back? The dog, and us having a baby already?" Matt agreed with his girl.

Bending down, Matt smiled as he proceeded to press his lips to her forehead softly. "I love you." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, while also staring up into his eyes. "Sorry I think that you were saying another woman's name in bed, because I hate that I even thought that way; and I hope you know that I would never think that you'd dream of another woman." Taking a breath when he heard Gabby say that, Matt just looked at her. "How about you sit up with the covers on top of you? I want to talk to you about that for a moment, if that's okay of course." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before proceeding to sit up. However, she let the covers drop. "Can you get me my underwear and your shirt?" Matt smirked when he heard Gabby say that, before bending down and going to grab them; after which, he gave Gabby her underwear (along with his shirt) so that she can get dressed for him. After which, she went to get dressed while sitting in bed this afternoon. At the same time, Matt climbed back into bed with his beautiful wife.

XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Shortly after climbing into bed with the woman he loves this afternoon, Matt Casey smiled due to the fact that he was absolutely happy over the fact that (rather than wearing his shirt) Gabby was just wearing her underwear for the moment; and that was due to the fact that she wanted to cuddle up to her husband, while not having to limit herself as to what she wants to cuddle up to.

And let's just say that Matt was in heaven. Not only due to the fact that he just made love to his gorgeous wife, but that he was not getting some of the sexiest cuddles in the entire world, from the most beautiful woman in the entire world; and that was a fact that he was never going to let his wife argue with him about. She will always be the most beautiful woman in the entire world in his eyes, and that's the only opinion that should matter to him; his opinion that Gabby is the most beautiful woman in the entire world, which he will never let her argue about. But now, that's not the reason why the couple are in bed with each other; and that's so they can talk.

"Thanks for agreeing to cuddle up to me in my lap, rather than sitting next to me as we talk about this." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before smiling as he bent down and proceeded to kiss her loving husband's chest; after which, Matt just smiled as this truly is everything that he wants right now. He wants to feel his wife against his chest, as they cuddled up to each other in bed; but more specifically, as they cuddle up to each other in their underwear (as Gabby was not wearing anything other than the sheets over her body). "Trust me, there was no way that I was not going to cuddle up to you in bed like this; this is my favorite way to cuddle up to you, and that will always be the case." Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, before smiling as he turned his head and then proceeded to kiss her forehead softly. "So, I want to talk to you about what you were just thinking about okay?" Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that. "Gabby, I want you to look up into my eyes and listen to me." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that.

Looking up at the man she loves, Gabby smiled as she loves him more than anything in the entire world; after which, Gabby slipped up his chest and proceeded to kiss him softly. After which, Matt wrapped his arm around her and just smiled due to the fact that this is everything that the couple want right now. "But now, about what I want to say to you..." Matt started, before proceeding to grab her hand; putting it on his chest, Matt smiled as he stroked her hand with his thumb while Gabby laid her head down on his chest. After which, Matt turned his head and kissed her forehead softly. "Gabby?" Gabby nodded. "Gabby, you, and the boys are my world. This life that I have now, with the money; it means nothing if I don't have you guys in it." Turning his head as he looked down into Gabby's eyes, Matt smiled at her. "And if you tell me you don't want this anymore, then we can stop; and we can do something else with the money. We can do other stuff. But I feel like this is supposed to happen to us, and this is supposed to be OUR life."

Matt said, emphasizing the word OUR in the last sentence that he said to Gabby; because that was the most important part of the life that he's living right now, that it's a life that he's living with Gabby and their boys. "Baby, I am going above and beyond to protect you and the boys; and I will always do that, because you are my wife and the love of my life." Gabby agreed with Matt when he said that, before moving her hand to his chest and running her hand down his chest. After which, Matt kissed her forehead softly as they held each other close. "I love you Gabby." Looking up at Matt, Gabby agreed with him before watching as he proceeded to bend down and kiss her softly. Just taking things nice and slow with the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world, Matt smiled as he wrapped his arm around her. After which, he turned his head and kissed her forehead once again. "I love you baby." Gabby agreed with Matt when he told her that, well aware of that fact now. "I love you too Matt." Matt agreed with his wife and smiled at her.

"So, do you want to wait to have that conversation about the baby and a dog? Or do you want to do it right now while we're nice and comfortable?" Smiling as she heard Matt ask her whether she wanted to talk about the service dog, as well as the future baby when he was back from getting some lunch. Taking a breath, Gabby looked up at the man she loves more than anything. "I'm hungry." Matt laughed when he heard Gabby say that, before watching as she proceeded to get out of Matt's lap; after which, Matt went to get up so that he can go make Gabby some lunch. After all, that was what they both needed to have right now. They needed to have some lunch.
