I have never been this anxious before. In just 24 hours I was going to be marrying the woman of my dreams, and I still hadn't written my vows. "Blake, she is going to kill me. I told her I wrote them a month ago!"
"What's the big deal little bro? So you haven't written them." of course my brother who isn't even married would say that, which caused all of us, her brothers and mine, to stare at him in horror, "Adam," Daniel, one of her brothers piped up, "I know you don't know my sister very well, and I know you're only like 19, but when my sister puts her mind to it you want to go along with it if you value your sanity. IF you know what I mean. That was the joy of her having 5 brothers, when a guy went too far or what she thought was too far she had a way of dealing with them because we taught her how to defend herself because we wouldn't always be able to protect her."
I saw a look of pure shock over Adam that I had never seen before. He looked at me and simply said "Damn Jake, don't piss her off."
"WOW, thanks for the advice bro." I said sarcastically rolling my eyes. "Okay, how about this then." As I read my vows I saw my brothers get a little misty. "Jake, that was beautiful man." My brother Barrett was always the romantic one of us guys so it made sense he loved it more than the others. "Thanks you guys." I smiled.
"Alright, Jake needs his sleep. Lets go guys." Blake was always good about making the guys behave. After they all left I was so nervous and anxious I couldn't sleep. I looked at the clock on the dresser across the room, it was 3 am. I thought I could probably sleep better if I got some food. So I went down into the kitchen and I saw Katie sitting on the couch I the living room reading. "You cant sleep either huh?" I walked over and sat down pulling her close to me. "You okay Katie?"
"Jacob, do you really want to do this tomorrow? I mean in front of all those people?"
" Of course I do! I love you Katie."
"I love you too, I just mean there are gonna be a lot of people there tomorrow..."
Katie is usually the calm one in things like this. "Baby, everything is going to be fine." I hugged her gently. "But what if it isn't?!" I could tell she was getting agitated and she needed to calm down. "okay, lets do this, go to bed, and in the morning there will be a surprise for you OK?" She nodded and I kissed her forehead and we both went to bed.
