"OMG! Tatum what happened?" Mel laughed at her brother

"She spat her food at me Haha!" Tatum replied also laughing, while covered in baby food

" Oh! no, you were supposed to be ready, I'm here to walk you down and mom will walk you down the aisle." Mel said

" I'll have to take a shower first, the ceremony isn't for another 30 minutes," Tatum said non-plussed

"Wow! You're going to cut it close, I'm not telling Andrew you're going to be late, he still scares me!" Mel exclaimed

"What? How can you be scared of a man that literally crawls around pretending to be a pony?" Tatum asked surprised

"It's when he stops pretending to be a horse and stands up that my knees start shaking, he is intimidating! " Mel replied shaking her head. "Only you and Anastasia think he is adorable and sweet, to everyone else he is Andrew Pearce billionaire extraordinaire."

"Uhm, and he is kind of scary with the scars and how straightforward he is, he even gives mom a run for her money," Mel added as an afterthought

"No one could scare mom! O-kay maybe Andrew can...Haha" Tatum laughed

"Shhh now, go shower, while I look after this most gorgeous princess! Come here Aunties angel." Mel said ushering Tatum to the bathroom.

"Issa! tah uggie?" Anastasia bubbled at her aunt

"Yes beautiful girl, Auntie Issa will give you lots of huggies." Melissa said cheerfully

"I can't believe it's been a year since you were born little one, and today your daddies get married." Mel beamed at Anastasia

"Such a sweet family you three make, and I love you very, very much, gimme a hug." Mel giggled

"Uggie! Uggie" Anastasia opened her little hands

"Tatum?! Have you taken your suit into the bathroom with you? "Mel asked loud enough to be heard over the shower.

"I took everything except my shoes; Anastasia was crawling around in them," Tatum called out

"Okay, I'll find them for you!" Mel called back

"Thanks, Sis!" Tatum replied

"Hey you little princess, where did you hide daddy's shoes? He can't get married barefoot you know." Mel said to Anastasia

"Toos?" Anastasia queried

"Haha yes sweetie, shoes. Let's look for them." Mel smiled

Anastasia crawled off under the bed and came out dragging Tatum's shoes by their laces.

"Oh! What a clever girl you are!" Mel exclaimed

"Hehe! Uggie!" Anastasia held her arms out

"Yes, sweet girl you get a hug. Such a little cutey. Tatum! We found your shoes." Mel giggled

"Thanks, Mel! I'm almost done." Tatum called back

"You better be, I can't imagine what he will do if you are late for your wedding." Mel dreaded Andrew's intimidating gaze

"Haha! Probably send out a search party or maybe the military. Ha-ha. I'm coming gout sis!" Tatum laughed

"Wow! My little brother cleans up nicely! You look so beautiful, Tat!" Mel exclaimed appreciating Tatum's wedding suit.

"Andrew won't be able to keep his eyes off you," Mel said smiling

"It's not his eyes I'm worried about." Tatum blushed
