A fourth chapter today? What's up with the writer today? Well, I'll tell you what's up, I want to give you what I didn't give you yesterday; and that would be the missing chapter. I only gave you two chapters yesterday, so I feel like I owe you another chapter today; but maybe I can also give you another chapter after this one, depending on how long it takes to get this chapter done. But first, what do you guys think of the idea of Matt and Gabby adopting a baby boy; a baby boy that would replace (sorry, bad word to use) the baby that they lost. Does that make sense? Do you guys like that idea? Well, I would love to know what you guys think; and whether you guys are open to that. Can't wait to find out what you guys think about it, because I'll be waiting to read your comments.

He could tell that she had a lot on her mind as she stood at the counter of their bathroom, his wife taking all the time in the world getting ready to join him in bed, which was where they decided that they were going to talk about Matt's proposal, a proposal that Gabby actually seemed to be open to. And that was quite surprising, both to Matt; and honestly, to Gabby herself. She never saw herself ever being okay with adopting a baby after what they went through with Louie, but there's just something about this time that makes her feel right; and maybe that was for other reasons as well, which also included the fact that they wouldn't be dealing with DCFS. The agency that made the early days of their marriage a living hell, which was something that she still can't forget; nor could she forget how she felt when she had to give Louie back, which was why Matt was starting to think this was a bad idea. A feeling that he was going to share with Gabby as he walked into the bathroom behind her, clad in nothing but his boxers; meanwhile, she wore some sexy lingerie (which Matt most definitely enjoyed the sight of). "I like the sight of this." Gabby agreed with Matt, smiling at him.
At the same time, Matt walked up behind her and smiled as he wrapped his arms around her; moving his hands to her stomach, Matt soon felt her put her hand on top of his as he held her close. He then bent down and kissed her shoulder, before turning his head and whispering in her ear. "We don't have to talk about this if you don't want to, I know that you have your reservations." Taking a breath, Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that; but that didn't mean that she didn't want to talk about this, because she actually felt intrigued this time around (which was the entire reason behind her actually WANTING to talk to Matt about this). And that was something that she was going to tell Matt, as she turned around to face him this afternoon. And god, did Matt like the fact that she just turned around in his arms; especially since it gave him a chance to step close to her, and move his hand to her neck. "I mean it when I said that, I...." Interrupting her husband, Gabby wrapped her arms around his back and then leaned up to kiss him softly. And let's just say that really surprised Matt, as he thought that this time in the washroom was going to be spent apologizing to her.
"Baby, calm down." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before watching as she got close to him and wrapped her arms around his waist; at the same time, he did the same and just smiled as he looked down into her eyes. "So, are we going to talk about this?" Gabby agreed with Matt when he asked her whether they were going to talk about this, that being the idea of them adopting a baby to make them have triplets again. Well, somewhat. But right now, they need to get to bed; as that was where they were going to talk about it, as they hold each other close in bed. That was where they both want to be right now. They want to hold each other close as they cuddle up to each other in bed and talk to each other about adoption; a topic that they both WANT to talk about, surprisingly. And that was why they were both ready to just get in bed, as they wanted to have this conversation with each other; they wanted to talk about this topic, and they wanted to explore it. But like they said, they need to get in bed with each other first. "Promise me that we take things slow, and just relax for a bit while we talk about this?" Matt agreed with Gabby, smiling at her.
He then proceeded to back up and extended his hand, with the hopes of Gabby grabbing it, which she did shortly after finishing up at the counter, as she wanted to get back to bed with the man she loves. She wants to cuddle up to him, and she wants to talk to him about the topic that they both already agreed that they'd talk about, which would be adoption, but you already knew that.

Walking up to her and Matt's bed shortly after they left the bathroom, Gabby smiled as Matt was still holding her hand as he following her to her side of the bed, which was where they always climbed into bed with each other now, as it was where they keep all of their things. Even Matt charges his phone there now, as it was easier for them to get comfortable on this side of the bed; at least, for now. That may change in the future, the further along in the pregnancy that they get. All Gabby knows is that she's ready to cuddle up to the man of her dreams in bed, as they talk about this. Adopting a baby boy, named Jackson David Casey. And Gabby could just tell that Matt wanted her to get in bed now, because he was starting to get a bit impatient. "I can see that you're starting to get a bit impatient mister." Matt snickered a bit as he heard Gabby say that, not that he would ever admit that he was getting a bit impatient when it came to them getting in bed with each other. But the truth was, he was very interested in getting in bed with the woman he loves; that way, he could hold her in his arms as they have what's going to be an emotional conversation with each other.
"I just want to get in bed, so that I can hold you as we talk about this. I think we both know that this conversation is going to bring up some emotions, that we're going to have to deal with." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, before getting nice and close to the man of her dreams; after which, she wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned up to kiss him softly. At the same time, Matt moved his hands to her butt and just took things nice and slow with the woman he loves more than anything in the entire world. "I love you." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that he loves her, as she knows that's the case; and that's due to the fact that she loves the man in front of her too, which is another reason why she wants to do this. She wants to talk about this, and they both want to make sure that they're on the same page; after all, that's something that they promised each other....that they'd always be on the same page. "Listen, time for you to get in bed. I want to get in bed with you now, and just hold you close to me." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, before moving her hands to his chest and then leaning up to kiss him softly. "Of course, you do my love."
Matt laughed a bit as he heard Gabby say that, before bending down so that he could kiss her softly; after which, he started to take things nice and slow with the woman of his dreams. And he had to say, he just loves kissing her. She's just the best kissing in the entire world, and this is exactly what they both want to do; at least, for now. But now that they shared another kiss, they need to get in bed; that way, they can have the conversation that they want to have. "Okay, time for you to get in bed so that I can cuddle up to you and hold you in my arms as we have this conversation." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, before finally turning around to get in bed. "You slap my ass; I go put my bathrobe on." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that. "Okay." Climbing back into bed this afternoon, Gabby smiled as she turned around quickly so that Matt wouldn't have a chance to slap her butt; and that just made Matt smile, but it also caused him to shake his head. "Such mistrust in the man you love to listen to what you want." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, well aware that was the case. "Okay, shut up and just come get in bed with me. I want to cuddle up to my hunk."
Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as she said that, ready to do that for the woman of his dreams.

Laying down in bed shortly after climbing into bed with Gabby, Matt smiled as he looked up at her as he knew that this was really want she wanted him to do; she wanted him to lay down in bed, rather than sit up in bed. "Don't tell me that this isn't what you really wanted me to do." Gabby smiled as Matt asked her whether she really wanted him to lay down, as she most definitely did want him to lay down; for the simple fact that she wants to cuddle up to the man of her dreams. "Please lay down." Matt agreed with Gabby as she told him to lay down, before going ahead with doing just that for the woman he loves. "Let me guess, you want to take a nap after we talk about this?" Gabby took a breath as Matt asked her whether she wants to take a nap after they talk to which Matt responded by saying: "Hey, don't you dare feel bad that you want to sleep after we talk. I can see that you're a bit tired, and you want me to hold you as you sleep?" Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, as that most definitely is the case. "Promise me that you do?" Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that. "But first, you need to lay down." Gabby agreed with Matt, as she went to lay down in his arms.
Meanwhile, Matt heard Andy walk into the room and make his way over to the bed; seeing Gabby laying down on Matt's chest, Andy just looked at the bed and wondered whether he was able to get up on the bed with him. "C'mon up boy. Come lay down on the bed with us." Barking, Andy agreed and then proceeded to get up on the bed. At the same time, Gabby tugged the covers up on top of both her and Matt so that she could be nice and comfortable in his arms; not that isn't already the case when it comes to her just laying down on his chest right now, because that's really all she needs when she's comfortable in Matt's arms. But what made her even more comfortable, was the feeling of Matt moving his hand to her stomach (and stroking it with his thumb). Turning his head shortly afterwards, Matt smiled as this was exactly what they both wanted to do right now. They wanted to hold each other close, and they just wanted to make sure that they relax in each other's arms. Laying her head down on Matt's heart, Gabby smiled as she started to listen to it; at the same time, Matt smiled as he moved his hand on top of hers and then turned his head to kiss her forehead.
"God, I am so glad that this is how we're laying down in bed right now; this is exactly how I want to hold you in bed right now." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, well aware that was the case. "Oh, I can tell that's the case." Smiling as he looked down at the woman he loves, Matt then bent down and proceeded to kiss the woman of his dreams. "So, before we start; I just want to say that I'm sorry about this." Looking up at Matt as he said that, Gabby was confused. "Why are you sorry baby?" Matt sighed. "Because I know that you weren't a fan of this before, and I know that you didn't want to think about this in the past." Gabby agreed with Matt. "I think I'm okay now. I think it was just because it was so soon." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before feeling her cuddle up to him again; after which, he wrapped his arm around her and put his hand on her back. At the same time, he stroked her back as they both held each other close. Running his hand up and down Gabby's back, Matt smiled due to the fact that he was very comfortable with her in his arms. "So, we want to talk about this. Can I ask you what your first thoughts about this is right now?"
Looking up at Matt as he asked her that. "To tell you the truth, I actually really like the idea of us doing it; because there's a reason for it. It's due to the fact that we're going to be giving back, which is something that I really like the idea of; us giving back to a baby who couldn't have what they had, and it would also be us getting back what we should've had. That baby we lost, but us giving back at the same time. I think it'd be a win-win in my books." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before bending down so that he could kiss the woman he loves; just taking things nice and slow with the woman he loves, Matt smirked due to the fact that this really is everything that they both want right now. They want to hold each other close, while they also take it easy. But at the same time, Gabby also wants to take a nap at some point. "Think you can just turn the TV on, and then I can fall asleep in your arms?" Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that, before turning his head and kissing her forehead softly. "Of course, baby." Matt then reached over to his side table, grabbing the TV remote so that he could turn on the TV. "Want to fall asleep to a Christmas movie?"
Gabby smiled as she looked up at the man she loves. "I'd love that idea. Can you just put it on the Hallmark Channel? Then, when I'm asleep you can change it?" Matt smiled. "I was actually thinking of taking a nap as well." Gabby was a bit taken aback as she heard Matt say that. "Really?" Matt agreed. "What? I'm allowed to sleep too." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, before cuddling up to him. She then thought about it. "Then can you close the blinds?" Matt agreed with Gabby as she asked him to close the blinds, before going to grab the remote to the blinds; after which, he closed them for the both of them. "Maybe I shouldn't even turn the TV on if we're both going to take a nap." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, liking that idea. "I like that idea." Matt agreed with Gabby, watching as the blinds closed all the way; after which, he set the remote back down and went to grab the covers to tug them up. He then turned his head and looked at Andy (who was on the bed with them). Scratching his head, Matt smiled. "We're going to take a nap now buddy." Just laughing a bit as she heard Matt say that, Gabby snuggled up to him. "You're adorable with him."
Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before turning his head and kissing her forehead softly. "I love you Gabby." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that. "I love you too. Have a good nap." Matt smiled as he heard Gabby say that, ready to have a nice nap; meanwhile, Gabby is ready to have a nice nap...and a nice dream.
