"Oh, my I'm getting married today!" She says, It took us a year for her to find that right one. She was going to get married to Raymond, but she quickly dumped him at the altar, leaving him for Josh. Her savior, my new step-dad. Apparently, she's been dating him for the past five years, and they never told Raymond or me or Coyy. So, after she gets married to Josh she'll be leaving for the Bahamas.

Apparently, there's a lot me and Coyy don't know. For example, she's pregnant and is 99.9% sure that the father is Josh, but hey, who knows! I thought she was getting fatter but I didn't want to say anything, respectfulness. You know? So, I'm going to have a younger sister. We're going to be 16 years apart, she's only 36 and she's having a kid! She also had me at a really young age. Also, Raymond is now is jail for Child Abuse.

I leave my mom at the church doors, "Have fun!" I say, walking down the aisle, Coyy smiles at me, and I smile back. He ditched, broke up with, left Lydia, whatever you want to use to describe it, and went with me instead. When I reached the altar he smiled at me, his eyes never once leaving my face.

After my mom walks down the aisle. The preacher begins; "Dearly beloved we are gathered here today." I glance over at Coyy, who is still currently smiling at me.

When I got to the altar the preacher started; "Dear beloved we are gathered here today, to witness the marrying of Carre Grace Burra and Coyy Andrew Colbert." I rub the back of his hand.

My abdomen swelling, I was wondering how he's going to feel after all this. I was planning on telling him later, but I decided it should be his wedding present. I'm 26 about to be married and pregnant. I only found out when I was trying on the dress last month. Apparently I'm 6 months pregnant and my stomach has barely grown.

I was afraid of telling him sooner because he was so busy and stressed. When he gets home from work he automatically collapses, he leaves really early. He's an assistant for a Law Firm agency. Also, I always wear hoodies and haven't showered with him at all...so he can't really be blamed.

"Coyy Andrew Colbert do you take Carre Grace Burra to be your wife, to have and to hold to love and cherish, in sickness and health, till death do you part?"

"Yes!" He says quickly. "Do you Carre Grace Burra take Coyy Andrew Colbert to be your husband--"

"Yes!" I say exasperated, the crowd laughs. "Then I now pronounce--" My lips were already on Coyy's before he finished. The crowd claps. I realize he probably knows about my small bundle. I put my hand on my stomach and felt a kick, I smile. He kicks again, I let out a breath. "Are you okay?" Coyy asks me concern in his eyes. Think of something! Think of something! "Yes just hungary." I say with a smile, "Then lets not keep the lady waiting." He says smiling.

"Hey, Coyy?" I ask him to pull him away from Grand-mere. "Yes?" I smile up at him. "I have a surprise for you." I say, I turn to Grand-mere. "Keep the crowd busy until we get back, please." She hugs me, "Are you finally gonna tell him?" She asks, "What?" I say, "I've been there before, I know what it looks like." I smile at her and nod.

When we were walking away, he smiled at me. I led him to my changing room. "Where are we going? Are we going to my surprise?" He asks, "You could say that." I tell him, when I shut the door. I turn my back to him. "Can you undo the back of the dress please?" He does it happily. I quickly shed the dress turning around to face him, "What do you see?" I asked him. He looks at my eyes, my small smile, his eyes travel down to my stomach. He sucks in a breath.

He looks back at me, his hand traces my belly button going to my back. "For how long?" I smile up at him, I can see he's happy but not. "Five, six months maybe."

"Six months!"

"Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"You were so busy and stressed and I didn't want to add to that."

"And..."

"I didn't want you to leave me...us...him."

"I would never! You know this!"

"I know, but it makes a better wedding present." I say with a shrug, I was getting worried. He wasn't showing any emotions on his face. "Is that why you like to shower alone now?" I nod. He finally smiles, "I'm going to be a father!" He says, I nod again, "Help me get a different dress back on, I would do it but at the moment I'm too fat to do anything." He grabs a dress and helps me in it. "You're not fat. You're carrying a very important package!" He says smiling.

"We should get back out there, before they start thinking we're 'busy'" I say, "They probably already know. But who knows?" I look at him, "I didn't tell anybody but Grand-mere found out." He smiles. "She was always smart for us." A knock sounds at the door. "It doesn't take that long to make a baby!" My mom says, "Mom!" I say laughing. I open the door, "We already have!" I told her. "When?" She asks, "Six months ago?" I say smiling she hugs me. "Yes! I knew it!" She happily walks away.

I roll my eyes, "We should go." Coyy says, his arm protectively wrapped around my waist. "Okay, but could you go grab me some chocolate?"

"Anything, for you." He says, I smile and go sit down, a few minutes later he brings me chocolate. The toast begins, starting with Jax, Mom, Josh, Grand-mere, then some other people Coyy knew. "Are you okay?" He asks. I look at him, "Yes, we are okay. Better than okay actually, I have a plate of chocolate covered chocolate. That I'm probably going to regret tomorrow morning." I tell him.

I lean over to him, "What are we going to name it?" I asked him. He looks at me, "Kade. Kade Griffin Colbert. How does that sound to you Mrs. Colbert?" I smile. "Great! Mr. Colbert." This was never going to get old.

After the reception we headed out, Coyy carrying me like a child. "Off to the bahamas." He said, As soon as we got into the car, I was already halfway undressed. Wanting to get something more comfortable. My dress is becoming tight against my skin. "Are you ready Carre Grace Burra-Colbert?" Coyy asked me. "Are you ready. Coyy Andrew Colbert?" He smiled, "Forever." I smiled that we were off to a better life with each other.
