Tierra POV
"You look beautiful baby" my mom said fixing my pinned up hair.
I nodded smiling.
"Thank you" I said to her.
"You ready" I heard my dad say as he walked over.
"I'm nervous but I'm ready" I said.
"You got it y'all gonna be good" my mom said.
I nodded and looked at my dad.
"Daddy don't cry you're gonna mess up my makeup" I said seeing him wipe his tears.
"Right" my mom said fanning her own eyes.
My makeup artist came and dabbed my eyes from my few tears.
"I'm sorry it's just I'm so grateful to be here. To be walking my Queen down the aisle for her big day" he said.
I nodded.
We shared a hug and he kissed my cheek.
We were told it was time so my dad and I walked out to the big black doors of the building we rented out that was designed for weddings.
It was near the beach since I wanted that scenery for our wedding.
We stood in front of the doors and I took some deep breaths feeling myself grow nervous.
I heard Brian McKnight love of my life start to play and every emotion I could think of started to hit me at once but before I could feel any of them the double doors opened.
I looked forward and saw Taj standing in his cream suit our wedding colors were brown and gold. We wanted it to represent our chocolate love and it all came out amazing.
My dad and I linked arms and then began our walk as music played.
I smiled as I walked passed our guest up to the alter.
Once we made it my dad and I shared a hug and he kissed my cheek.
"I love you my Queen" he said.
"I love you too daddy" I said.
He and Taj dapped up and then daddy helped me onto the platform and I stood in front of Taj and they started the ceremony.
My maid of honor was Trinity and then his best man being Rico.
His ushers being Jay, Ty, and Mac.
My bridesmaids being Mika, Tiara, and Toya.
"Now we will exchange the vowels" the pastor said.
Granny got the pastor from the church Taj grew up attending to marry us.
I went first.
"Taj you showed me a love that I never experienced, first through our children and secondly from a partner. You see me, hear me and understand me even when I don't want you to. You've always been what I needed before I knew what I needed. I fell in love with you when we had our daughter.
When you came to that hospital when I was giving birth 4 years ago on February 14th I knew it was fate but I was running until I couldn't run anymore. And baby I thank you for never letting me run to where you would stop chasing me.
Thank you for being there when I needed you most and for showing up when I pushed you away. I love you" I said looking up at him from my paper.
He smiled looking at me and I could see the love in his gaze.
