We've all heard tales of brides fleeing the altar... but what if it's the groom who disappears, leaving behind a heartbroken bride with shattered dreams and unanswered questions?
On what was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, her groom van...
"God, Jessy... it's three in the morning," Jay groaned groggily beside me.
"Fine... you don't love me anymore," I sniffled. Ugh. Lately, I've been crying a lot. Poor Jay. My never-ending cravings must be driving him insane.
"Oh no, no... baby," he reached over and gently rubbed my hand. "I'm sorry. I was just sleepy," he said with guilt in his voice.
"I want cupcakes," I pouted.
He chuckled, then gave me that soft, amused look he always does when I'm being dramatic. "As you wish, milady," he said, lifting me into his arms bridal-style and carrying me downstairs.
"I'm heavy," I whimpered again, burying my face in his chest. "I feel so heavy..."
"Aww, baby... of course you're not heavy," he whispered, still pampering me like I was the most precious thing in the world. When we reached the kitchen, he gently placed me on the counter. "You're beautiful," he said, leaning in and kissing me.

Smiling, I cupped my bump. Eight months now. Jay had never once failed to take care of me. No matter how annoying my cravings got or how often I cried, he never complained.
"Alright, cupcake queen... time for the butter," he said as he started mixing ingredients. I watched him with a sleepy smile as he prepared the tray and slid it into the oven.
Slowly, I slid down from the counter and wrapped my arms around him from behind. There was always something about his warmth that made me feel safe.
"I love you," I murmured.
"I love you too, Miss Booby," he teased.
I swatted his butt. "Jeez, stop calling me that."
"Sorry, Mrs. Erickson," he winked.
He turned around and gently cupped my face, his gaze soft but heavy with emotion.
"I regret those times... when I let you suffer alone," he said quietly.
"Shhh," I stopped him gently. "I know. We both went through pain... but it's okay now. Look at us—we made it. We're standing here, together, loving each other fiercely. That's what matters."
"Yeah, you're right... I don't know why I brought it up now," he smiled sheepishly.
"Okay then—shut up and kiss me," I grinned.
"As you wish, princess."
We made out lazily, wrapped up in each other's warmth, until the oven dinged.
Just as I wanted, Jay fed me the cupcakes one by one while I nibbled and moaned in satisfaction.
Then suddenly— "Ouch..." I clutched my stomach. "Jay..."
