He already knew that this was going to be a hard topic to talk about when he first learned that this is what he had PTSD about, but he also knew that he needed to talk to Gabby about it; because she's his partner in this, and he needs to talk to her so that she can help him. And since she's going to be here, she's going to make it much easier to talk about it; because that's what she always does, she makes things a lot easier to talk about simply by holding him close in bed. And that was what Matt was waiting for Gabby to do, to hold him in bed (rather than have him hold her in bed for a change); oh, who are we kidding, they're both going to hold each other equally as it's what they need to do. They need to hold each other, and they need to give each other comfort, which is something that Gabby's more than okay with doing. But first, she needs to talk out of the washroom and join him in bed, which is something that he's still waiting for her to do. "You coming babe?" And it was just then that Gabby came out of the washroom. "Calm down, I'm coming."
Matt agreed with his beautiful wife as she said that, well aware that was the case. "I can see that's the case. And I have to say that you look quite good right now." Gabby agreed with Matt as he told her that, well aware that was the case. "Oh, calm down Matt, you may look comfortable in bed; but that doesn't mean that you're getting sex from me, because you just had PTSD." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, well aware that was the case. "Oh, I'm not expecting sex whatsoever. I'm just expecting to hold the woman I love in my arms and cuddle up to her as she gives me comfort after I had PTSD, which is what I need right now." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, well aware that was the case as she walked out of the bathroom so that she could go join the man she loves in bed. After all, that's exactly what he wants her to do right now; he wants her to join him in bed and hold him close. Not that she would want to do anything else, because her husband is a real hunk; and she likes to hold him close all the time, because he's comfortable.'
But right now, she needs to do it for practical purposes; that are related to his health, his mental health (more specifically, his PTSD). And she's more than okay with doing that because she loves her husband; and she wants to do whatever she can to make sure that he's okay at the end of the day. "I'm going to lay down next to you for a bit, because I want to talk; that okay?" Matt agreed with Gabby as she asked him that, as he was more than okay with that. "I like that idea actually." And since he liked that idea so much, Matt decided to roll over onto his side so that he could already be facing Gabby when she climbs into bed with him; after all, they are going to be facing each other as they talk to each other. "Come here gorgeous." Gabby agreed with Matt as he asked her to get close to him, which is exactly what she went ahead and did; she got into bed with him, so that she could talk to him and make sure that she was okay. And boy, was she going to be comfortable as she did it; because she's always comfortable when she's in bed with Matt.
Oh, and kissing him softly; because that's something else that she's going to do with her husband, she's going to kiss him softly as they hold each other close. After all, that's how she's going to help him feel better. She's going to comfort, talk to, and kiss him as they relax in bed together; and that's perfect, because it's exactly what Matt wants. He wants her to kiss him, and talk to him for a while. So now, it's time for them to start doing that; it's time for the two of them to hold each other close, as they cuddle up to each other and talk. And that's exactly what they're going to do, starting right now as Gabby moved close to him; while Matt put his hand on her hip, so that he could hold her close. "So, are you going to fill mem in on what you heard?" Taking a breath, Gabby agreed with Matt as she knew that she needed to do that; she needed to tell him what she heard, so that he knew what was going on when she came in. "You were yelling out, and asking your dad to not do it." Taking a breath, Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that. "Yeah, I know...hard."
Matt agreed with Gabby as she told him that, because he also hopes that he didn't scare her. "I just hope that I didn't scare you." Looking at her husband as he said that, Gabby was shocked that he was worried about that; especially when they should be worried about him first, as he was the one that had PTSD. "Hey, you don't need to worry about that Matt. You were the one that had PTSD, please worry about that more. I'm used to seeing it now." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before taking a breath. "And the boys? Are they going to be used to seeing it? The girls?" Taking a breath as she heard Matt say that, Gabby had a feeling that this has been on his mind for a while. "We can talk about that after, but we need to talk about this first." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, well aware that was the case. "Baby, I want you to open up to me; just let me know what's going on, and talk to me." Matt agreed with Gabby. "I guess, I just thought about it for some reason. And it hasn't happened for a long time, and it scares me."
Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, well aware of the fact that it hasn't happened for a while; and that's why she's actually a bit more concerned than normal. "That's actually why I'm a bit more concerned than normal, because of how rare it is now; and while that is a good thing, it's just surprising when I see it." Matt agreed with Gabby as she said that, before bringing her close to him again; after which, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her softly. And let's just say that was exactly what the couple wanted right now. They wanted to take things nice and slow with each other, because it was perfect; and Gabby is just glad that Matt's in the midst of doing it right now, kissing her slowly as they open up to each other. "Do you need a minute to take a breather before we talk about it more Matt?" Matt sighed as he heard Gabby ask him whether he needs to take a breather before they talk about it more, because he isn't sure what he needs. All he knows is that he likes to hold her close like this, and hopes that he doesn't need to stop holding her.
"Are you okay with staying like this? Us holding each other close? Because I don't want you to...." Just staring into Matt's eyes, Gabby then leaned in and kissed him softly; not wanting him to think that she wasn't okay with staying in his arms, because there's nowhere else that she'd rather be than in his arms right now. That's just a fact, and that's never going to change. "That isn't something that you need to worry about Matt, because I'm always going to want to be in your arms; just take a breather, and relax honey. I'm here for you, and I'm always going to be here for you. That's a fact, one that you don't need to question." Matt agreed with Gabby as she told him that, glad that was the case. After which, he wrapped both of his arms around her and brought her against his chest; and Gabby had to say, this is quite comfortable. Especially when she gets a chance to slip her legs in between his. And right now, that's exactly what she just did. She just slipped her legs in between his, as they both held each other close in bed. "Comfortable?" Matt agreed, smiling.
"Of course, I'm comfortable, I'm holding my girl in my arms as we cuddle up to each other in bed." Gabby smiled as she heard Matt say that, well aware that was the case; and it was also why she just decided to grab the back of her head and take things nice and slow with him, because of how sexy her dreamy husband is. "I love you Matt, and I want you to remember that as we both hold each other close and just make sure that you talk to me." Matt agreed with Gabby as she told him that, as that's exactly what he plans on doing for his wife. He plans on talking to her, so that they can make sure that they're always on the same page; but first, he wants to hold her close to his chest and cuddle up to her. And it seems like Gabby knew that, as she just got nice and close to him.

Wrapping her arms around Matt's neck as soon as she was comfortable in his arms, Gabby smiled as she held him close so that she could give the man of her dreams some comfort; because that's what she needs to give him right now, comfort. She knows that Matt will never say it, but she knows that he's going through a hard time right now, and she doesn't want Matt to feel like he's alone in this. Because Matt will never be alone in this, because she's here for him; she'll always be here for him, and she's going to make sur that they deal with this together. And she's just glad that he's holding her right now, because she's very comfortable as she lays down in his arms. "I can only assume that you're glad that I'm currently holding you in my arms?" Gabby agreed with Matt as he asked her whether she was currently comfortable in his arms, because she most certainly was comfortable in his arms; so much so, that she leaned back and looked into his eyes. "Baby, of course I'm comfortable; I'm always comfortable when I'm in your arms."
Matt smirked as he heard Gabby say that, before leaning in and going to kiss the woman he loves softly; the woman he loves and craves more than anything in the entire world, and whom he would very much like to make love to. But he knows that he can't right now, because he just needs to relax as they hold her close; he's just glad that Gabby decided to get nice and close to him, because it allowed him to move his hand to her stomach as they cuddled up to each other. But not just move his hand to her stomach but stroke it with his thumb; because that was what Gabby wanted him to do right now, stroke her stomach with her thumb...especially since the girls were currently kicking. In fact, Matt just realized that now; so he turned his head and looked at Gabby. "The girls are kicking." Moving her hand to Matt's face, Gabby smirked as she leaned in and then proceeded to kiss him softly. "Why do you think I just moved close to you? I wanted you to feel the girls kicking." Matt smirked as he heard Gabby say that, before bending down to kiss her.
Just taking things nice and slow with the woman he loves, Matt smirked due to the fact that this really is exactly what he wants to do right now as he recovers from having PTSD. And he just loves the fact that he's recovering with the amazing help of his beautiful wife, the amazing Gabriela Marie Casey; so much so, that he just decided to tell her that he loves her (even though she already knows that). "I love you Gabby." Gabby agreed with Matt as he said that, smiling as she looked up into his eyes. "I love you too Matt." Bending down, Matt smirked as he took things nice and slow with Gabby..
