Hi Readers: Sorry for the delay in getting this chapter out, but I ended up getting a bit distracted in between writing last chapter and this chapter. But now, I'm ready to write a couple more for you; some chapters that are most definitely going to include a bunch of time where the couples are going to spend time as family and friends (sorry for the spoilers), at Matt and Gabby's home while celebrating her birthday. But, I'm sure that you guys want to find out more about what happens on her birthday. So, how about we get to it. Thanks again for reading. Here's Chapter Seventy-Two.
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Walking out of Will and Natalie's home this morning shortly after talking to Natalie about what she needed to talk to her about, Gabby smiled as she watched as Jay welcomed his brother to the gathering that they're having with their friends this morning; the brothers having just shared a hug this morning, one that will most definitely be replicated when Natalie makes her way over to the group of people (as Jay is going to want to say hi to his sister-in-law as well).
And that gave Gabby a chance to spend a quick moment with Matt, while a majority of the group was concentrating on saying good morning to the doctors; after all, he was currently in the midst of looking at her with a glimmer of worry in his eyes. The thing that he was worried about? It was due to the fact that she both went to a doctor's home, and it took her a bit of time to come back to him. Well aware that was the case, Gabby smiled as she walked over to him (along with the rest of her friends); she then went ahead and wrapped her arms around him to calm him down right now.
"Hey." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, wrapping his arm around her before kissing her forehead softly. "Hey." Looking up at the man she loves, Gabby smiled at him. "You're worried." Matt nodded as Gabby asked him that, before going to tug out a chair for her so that she can sit down; which she promptly did after Matt tugged the chair out for her, as she knew that it was one of the ways that she was going to be able to calm her husband down this morning. Bending down after Gabby sat down, Matt smiled as he looked at his beautiful wife (who just so happens to be pregnant with their third child); and that was the reason why Matt was worried right now. She was gone for too long for his liking. Then again, should he really be worried? She was with his friend, who just so happens to be a doctor. That's when Gabby decided to stop him from worrying. "Hey, I can see that you're worried right now; but you have nothing to worry about baby." Matt agreed with his wife as she said that, before sitting down next to her and moving closer.
After which, he grabbed her hand and intertwined their fingers. "Sorry, just a habit." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, before smiling as she put her hand on his arm; leaning in to kiss him shortly afterwards, Gabby smiled as she kissed him softly. "I love you." Matt agreed with his wife as she told him that, just looking into her beautiful eyes this morning. "I love you too." Gabby just smiled at her loving husband before putting her hand on his cheek. "I promise baby, you can relax; remember, I'm not going to do anything that will put this pregnancy at risk." Matt agreed with his wife when she told him that, never having any doubt that she would ever do anything that would put the pregnancy at risk; after all, that was exactly what she did the last time she was pregnant (with the boys). "Hey, you have no need to tell me that. I know that you're not going to do that baby. Please don't think that's what's on my mind. Plus, I know that you were with Natalie; and I know that she's always going to have your back." Gabby agreed with Matt.
Smiling at him as he told her that, she smiled and then gave him another kiss. Laying her head down on his shoulder, Gabby smiled as she cuddled up to him and just held her close. Turning his head, Matt smiled as he kissed her forehead softly. At the same time, he listened to her whisper to him. "I already asked Natalie." Matt was a bit confused as he heard Gabby say that, before turning his head as he was unsure as to what she asked Natalie; the two of them having not spoken ahead of time about what Gabby ended up asking Natalie to do for her while she was in her cottage. "What did you ask her Gabby?" Natalie then smiled as she walked up to the couple, especially her friend. "I'll be sending you a bill for some more equipment that I need." Turning his head, Matt sat up a bit and just looked at Natalie. "What are you talking about Natalie?" Natalie laughed a bit, before looking at Gabby. "Does he not understand what you asked me yet?" Gabby then turned to look at Matt again. "Matt, I want to introduce you to our OB/GYN for the pregnancy."
"Matt then realized that. "Oh, you want to get some tools for you to be able to..." Natalie agreed with her friend (and employer) when he asked her that, smiling at him. "Yes. That way, I can do what Gabby wants me to do. And that's make sure that she has the healthiest pregnancy in the entire world, especially after share shared her worries with me." Turning to look at Gabby, Matt was a bit confused; and in fact, he was starting to get worried as well. "Worries?" Gabby sighed as she looked at her husband, clearly able to see that he's getting quite worried right now. "Baby, take a breath and just listen to me. Remember, we got pregnant back-to-back, and that means that this is a high-risk pregnancy." Matt then realized that, agreeing with his beautiful wife as he proceeded to lean a kiss on her forehead. "Yeah, that make sense." Looking at Matt as she stood next to him, she put her hand on his shoulder and smiled. "I promise Matt, you can trust your wife in my hands." Matt smiled as he heard Natalie tell him that, well aware that's the case.
"Hey, of course I know that Natalie. Did you really ever think that I wouldn't trust you with my beautiful wife's health?" Natalie shook her head when Matt asked her that, before smiling at him. After which, she walked over to Will so that she can sit down with him and relax this morning; but first, she walked over to her sister-in-law this morning. "How are you feeling this morning Alex?" Alex smiled as she looked up at her sister-in-law, going to get up so that she can hug her. "I'm doing good. And I'm quite happy right now." Natalie agreed with Alex as she got close to her sister-in-law, proceeding to hug her. "Remember what I told you by the way, if you're ever worried..." Alex laughed, agreeing with her sister-in-law when she said that; after all, she's well aware of that fact. "Natalie, take a breath and relax okay? I promise that I'll do just that, and please do not make my husband worry when he has no reason to be worried right now." Jay laughed as he walked over to Alex, as that will never happen; he will always be worried for her while she's pregnant.
And she's well aware of that fact, which is why she decided to walk over to him. Wrapping her arms around him shortly afterwards, Alex smiled as she cuddled up to the man of her dreams. Jay then proceeded to wrap his arms around her as well, pressing his lips to her forehead as they held each other close; after which, he bent down and proceeded to kiss his beautiful wife softly. At the same time, his sister-in-law walked over to Stella this morning. Getting close to her, Natalie smiled as she bent down. "Before I sit down, I want to check on you. How are you feeling Stella?" Turning her head to look at Natalie, Stella smiled as she asked her how she's feeling. "Thanks for asking Natalie, I'm glad that you asked me that; unlike my best friend." Turning her head to look away from her husband after hearing Stella say that, Gabby snapped a bit. "Last time I checked Stella, I'm pregnant, and I have two sons to take care of." Stella gulped when Gabby said that, well aware that was her snapping voice. "Right, of course." At the same time, Matt sighed.
Putting his hand on her back, Matt took a breath before getting closer to her; kissing the side of her head, Matt then proceeded to whisper in her ear. "Hey, take a breath for me baby. Take a breath and relax, okay?" Gabby agreed with her husband when he told her to take a breath and relax, before going to grab his hand. Intertwining their fingers again, Gabby smiled as she went to grab some of her water and took a sip. After all, if there was one thing that she knew; it was that she needed to relax right now, and that was due to the fact that she was pregnant. Wrapping his arm around Gabby as he held her close to him, Matt smiled as he kissed her forehead again. And that got Gabby a bit concerned, because the last thing she wanted was for Matt to start getting worried. Putting his hand on her leg after wrapping his arm around her, Matt smiled as he kissed the side of her head and just held her close. Afterwards, Matt smiled as he turned his head once again and looked at their sons who are currently sitting down in their chairs. And they were cute.
Turning his head, Matt smiled as he looked at Gabby before pointing to Matteo and Noah in their chairs; turning her head shortly afterwards, Gabby smiled as they looked really cute. I mean, they are adorable babies. "I can't wait to see what our daughter is going to look like." Turning to look at Gabby as she said that, Stella smiled. "Let me guess, you think that you're having a girl?" Gabby agreed with Stella when she asked her that, smiling. "Yeah, so we're going to have to get to work; because last time I checked, I do not want to have to pay for baby clothes when I can design them myself." That's when Gabby heard her niece Eva (finally) come back outside. "I wouldn't mind helping out." However, Antonio later vetoed that. "Yeah, that's not happening. You're going to concentrate on your studies Miss Eva." Eva sighed when her dad said that, before agreeing with him; at least, she did until her aunt spoke up. "Antonio, she can help to earn her education some more." Antonio laughed, before agreeing with his sister as she said that today.
That's when Eva came to wrap her arms around Gabby. "Feliz cumpleaños Tia Gabby." Gabby smiled as she heard her sobrina (niece) say that to her. "Gracias Eva." Eva smiled as she heard her aunt say that, before walking away so that she can sit with her papa. "So, your brother isn't going to be joining us today?" Eva sighed as she looked at her father. "I thought that the shower I took would wake him up, but it didn't work. Sorry dad, but I give up." Antonio laughed as he heard his daughter say that, before looking at his sister. "Gabby, I'm going to go get Diego okay?" Gabby agreed with her brother when he said that, until she heard her mom come out. "Where are you going Antonio? We're celebrating Gabby's birthday with breakfast together today." Camila then smiled as she carried some pancakes and berries over to Gabby. "Here we go sweetheart." Gabby smiled as she heard her mom say that, after which Matt reached up to help her give his plate to him. However, the plates that she had in her hands were not for him. "Nope."
Turning around, Camila smiled as she looked at her son. "Antonio, can you come inside and help me with making some breakfast? I need some hands." That's when all of the women turned to look at their respective husbands, not too happy over the fact that their husbands are all sitting there. "Uhm, boys?" Matt, Jay, Kelly, and Will all then turned to look at their respective wives; with Matt speaking first. "We have two kids and a..." Gabby just looked at Matt when he tried to play that card. "And I have four capable women here to help me take care of them, along with myself." Jay then added on. "What about the dogs?" Alex turned her head and then looked at Max and Andy as they relaxed together. "Seems like they're keeping each other company, so no reason to play that card." Jay sighed, before getting up so that they can head inside. "Fine, let's go make breakfast boys." Gabby laughed, shaking her head as Jay said that. "Matt, make sure that you make breakfast the way I liked it while I was pregnant with the boys."
Getting up again, Matt smiled as he bent down to kiss the top of her head. "Of course dear." Gabby agreed with Matt when he told her that, smiling as he walked away. That was, until she heard Matteo start to cry. Taking a breath, Matt looked at Gabby. "Want me to get him for you?" Gabby agreed with Matt as he asked her whether she wanted him to get Matteo for her (ahead of him going to make them some breakfast). "Would you?" Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as she asked him that, before going to get Matteo for her.
