Birthday R&R: Cleaning Up

16 2 0
By OneChicagobyA

Hello Readers: And welcome to another day of chapters. Now, before we begin, I want to just give you guys some information. I know yesterday, I was planning on doing a swim. But I've decided to instead do something else with our birthday couple. Hope you enjoy.
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

So much for a swim with her loving husband and friends, and so much for keeping their home clean. That was the part of what just happened that Gabby hated the most, that she threw up all over the floor of her and Matt's home; right in front of all of their friends. She was so embarrassed, that she decided to run back to their room as she felt horrible over what she just did in front of everybody; heck, she barely wanted to look at her husband right now. And that was because (in her mind) she just ruined their floor. But that most certainly was the last way that Matt wanted her to feel right now, as she didn't ruin their home. And he was going to convey that message to her when he was in the washroom with her, which he could now do as he spoke to their friends and family; the friends and family who are going to take care of their children, while he takes care of his beautiful (pregnant) wife. And he was incredibly grateful that she was the only woman that he needs to concentrate on right now, as she's his girl; and she's the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world (and who just so happens to be the only person he has on his mind at the moment). And that's especially the case since she's pregnant with their third child, which is why he's going to be concentrating on her starting right now.

Walking into the washroom shortly after getting undressed and grabbing a fresh pair of boxers; Matt took a breath as he didn't know what he was going to see when he walks into the bathroom this morning, ahead of him and Gabby taking a shower together. And, of course, this is how they're going to be starting their day alone; a day where he can concentrate on the woman he loves, who is also in the midst of currently crying in the shower. And that's something that he doesn't want to hear right now, which is exactly why he needs to be with her right now. Walking up to the counter, Matt took a breath as he set his boxers down. After which, he walked over to the shower while taking off his towel; that way, he can get in the shower with his wife as quickly as possible (which will give him the ability to hold his wife in his arms, and comfort her the way he needs to right now). Opening the door shortly after hanging up his towel next to Gabby's towel, Matt took one last breath while looking at his girl. Hearing the door to the shower open, Gabby looked up at the man she loves. "What are you doing here?" Matt was a bit taken aback when he heard Gabby say that, before smiling at her. "I'm here to be with my wife, as we hold each other on her birthday; and as I hold her in my arms, while I try to make her feel better."

Gabby was a bit taken aback when she heard Matt say that, before seeing him put his hand out. "And the..." Matt shook his head. "How about you get up, I can wash you, and then I will answer all the questions you have? You can hold me, and I can make you feel better. I promise Gabby, I already know some of the questions that you have; and I am going to be able to answer them really easily." Gabby agreed with her husband as he told her that, well aware that was the case. Grabbing his hand, Gabby finally got up before coming to get close to him at the door to their shower; after which, Matt wrapped his arms around her and just held her (and their future child close to his chest).Putting her hand on his neck as soon as she was in Matt's arms, Gabby cuddled up to him and just took a breath; at the same time, Matt ran his hand up and down her back. "Hey, I'm here now. It's okay." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, while taking a breath. "I'm sorry, I just..." Matt shook his head as he heard Gabby try and apologize for something, which she doesn't need to do; she has no reason to apologize to him, and never will have a need to apologize to him. "Hey, no."

Gabby agreed with her husband as he told her that, before taking a breath as she held the man she loves more than anything in the entire world. "How are the boys?" Matt smiled as he heard Gabby ask him how the boys were. "They're going to be taken care of by our family today, and you can call them to bring them up any time you want. But right now, you need to rest; and I'm going to be here to make sure that you rest today." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that. After which, she put her hand on is neck once again. She then smiled as she proceeded to kiss her husband, taking things nice and slow with him; after all, that's exactly what she wants to do right now. She wants to take things nice and slow with the man of her dreams. "I love you." Matt agreed with his beautiful wife when she said that, before smiling as he held his beautiful wife in his arms. "Is me holding you in my arms making you feel better?" Gabby agreed with Matt as he asked her whether him holding her in his arms making him feel better, which it most definitely is. "What do you think baby? I think we both know that it is." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby tell him that this morning.

After all, that's exactly what he wants to hear. He wants to make sure that she feels better, and that she's okay when it comes to her being pregnant, which is something that he decided to whisper into her ear about. "So, is it wrong for me to want to have a daughter?" Gabby laughed as she heard Matt ask her that, after which she leaned back and looked at the man she loves. "Oh, we are most definitely going to be talking about that today." Matt smiled as he looked at his girl. "I can't help but wonder if you're sick on purpose." Gabby shook her head when she heard Matt say that, before stepping away from him, before also pushing him away a bit; after which, she turned around and proceeded to stood in front of her husband. At the same time, Matt walked up behind his beautiful wife; after which, he put his hands on her hips and bent down to kiss her shoulder softly. And let's just say that Gabby loved that feeling, especially when she felt Matt kiss her shoulder again. Sucking on her shoulder, Matt smirked as she's really happy right now. "God, you are so damn sexy. And I love you more than anything in the entire world." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling at him.

After which, she decided to turn around in his arms again; stepping close to her loving husband, Gabby smiled as she put her hands on his chest and just smiled as she leaned in to kiss him softly; taking things nice and slow with his girl this morning, Matt smirked. "Happy birthday baby, I'm so sorry that your breakfast wasn't what you wanted to enjoy." Gabby shook her head when she heard Matt say that, as she did enjoy her breakfast. "I did like it, but I don't think our daughter enjoyed it." Matt couldn't help but smile as he heard Gabby say that, as he absolutely loves the fact that she believes they're going to have a daughter too. "You are going to be the best mother to our daughter." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt tell her that, well aware that's the case; after which, Matt got nice and close to the woman he loves more than anything once again. Wrapping his arms around her shortly afterwards, Matt smiled as he proceeded to kiss her forehead softly; meanwhile, Gabby put her hands on his arms. And that feeling made Gabby smile.

Just holding each other close, Matt and Gabby both smiled as he pressed his lips to her forehead; and let's just say that's definitely something that Gabby always enjoyed feeling, as it was a way for her husband to show her that he loves her more than anything in the entire world. I mean, not that she needs to be told that once again. Looking down at his girl, Matt smirked due to the fact that he was incredibly happy at the moment; after which, he bent down and proceeded to kiss her softly. "Want me to wash you?" Gabby agreed with Matt as he asked her whether she wanted him to wash her. "First, I want to just talk about something." Matt smiled at his girl when she said that. "How about right now, we wash up? After that, we can talk over there..." Matt said, pointing towards the bath that he wanted to use with Gabby. Turning her head, Gabby smiled as she liked that idea. "I think that sounds like the perfect place for us to relax. It's what we both need to do right now." Matt agreed with his wife as she told him that, smiling as he grabbed some soap.

After which, he moved his hand to her neck and stepped close to her; leaning in, Matt smirked as he took things nice and slow with her. "I think we rush things today." Gabby took a breath when she heard Matt tell her that, before nodding. "Yeah, I agree with you when you say that. We should've taken things slow. Maybe then I wouldn't have ruined breakfast." Matt shook his head when he heard Gabby say that she ruined breakfast, as that's not what she did. "Hey, listen to me; you can't ruin breakfast, because today is YOUR day. Today is your birthday, you're the birthday girl, and that's final." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, the wife truly falling more and more in love with her husband more each and every day; after which, she wrapped her arms around him again. "Here, let me wash you up okay Gabby. And then we can get in the bath. Now, I do need to say this. Natalie is going to try and get you nausea meds okay? So, I may need to step out at some point. Other than that..." Gabby smiled. "I still have some, so no rush."

Matt agreed with his wife when she said that, smiling due to the fact that he loves his beautiful wife more than anything in the entire world. "Just curious, what are we going to be wearing today?" Gabby smiled as she looked at Matt. "Boxers and lingerie?" Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that. "I love the sound of that, especially since it means that we can hold each other...as well as Baby Grace Marie?" Gabby shook her head when she heard Matt say that. "That is NOT going to be our daughter's middle name, because our hypothetical baby girl's middle name is already chosen." Matt looked at his wife when she said that. "What happened to no..." Gabby just looked at her husband when he said that. "You got Andy as a middle name, I get Shay as our daughter's middle name."
