I Do!

Chapter 9

Jewel

It's been way past a half an hour, and I started to wonder if August is even here? The wedding was suppose to start an hour ago and here I am still in the dressing room waiting. I tried my hardest not to ruin my make up with my tears, but of course that didn't work. I began to cry as I dialed August number, of course the phone call went straight to voicemail. I sighed as I dapped under my eye with a tissue.

"Mommy why are you crying?" McKenzie peeped through the door.

"I was just fixing my make up baby, that's all." I let out a fake laugh. "Is your daddy here?" I asked.

"I dunno." She shrugged her shoulders. "Uncle Trey singing to everybody." She giggled pullin' at my arm.

I furrowed an eyebrow, Trey and Chris aren't suppose to sing until the wedding start. Everything just wasn't addin' up. "Where's Kayla?"

"Playin' with Kay Kay, Noonie, and Chay." Kenzie smiled playin' with the ends of her dress.

"Why aren't you playing with them?" I asked.

"Auntie Ciara, and Aunt Chandra told me to come keep your company."

I furrowed an eyebrow. "Oh really?" I shook my head. "Where are they?"

Kenzie shrugged her shoulders. "She didn't say mommy, why you askin' so many questions?" She giggled.

I mentally rolled my eyes, this little girl is to much. I picked her up and tickled under her arms causing her to laugh uncontrollably. "St-st-stop mommy." Kenzie said through laughs.

I stopped tickling her as the door opened, Claire walked in and her mouth dropped. "You look so beautiful honey."

I felt myself blush, she's not the first who told me I look beautiful in my dress. "Thanks boo, where's everyone?" I asked.

Claire looked down at the floor and played with her fingers. I know she knows something that I don't know. Someone better tell me what the hell is going on. I bit my bottom lip and bent down to Kenzie's level.

"Baby, why don't you go back downstairs and play with the girls. Mommy will be okay, Ms. Claire is here to keep my company now."

Kenzie nodded her head and I kissed her cheek. I smiled as I watched her run off to find her sister and cousins.

I stood up and brushed my dress off. "Claire what the hell is going on?"

"Jewel relax honey it's your wedding day." Claire patted my shoulder.

I felt my eyes water up again. "Well it sure doesn't feel like a wedding day to me, August backed down didn't he? And now everyone is trying to cover up for him huh?"

Claire mouth dropped and she ran over to hug me. "Oh god no girl. You know August loves you, he should be here any minute now."

I sobbed on Claire's shoulder. Claire backed away and walked over to the vanity to grab me some tissues.

"Please don't mess my dress up babes!" Claire handed me the tissues causing me to laugh a little.

"I just want to know what's going on, everyone been sayin' he's gonna be here but an hour has passed by and he still is no where to be found."

Claire nervously bit her bottom lip. "Well he has a surprise for you."

I let out a fake chuckle. "Damn the surprise Claire, I just want my man so we can walk down this aisle and get this day over with."

"Anyone ever tell you that you're acting like a bridezilla right now?" Claire joked.

"Shutup!" I playfully pushed her causing her to tip in her heels.

"I promise everything is going to be okay hun, just calm down...please?" Claire poked her bottom lip out.

I sighed. "Okay Claire."

August

I moved back and forth trying to get these damn ropes to tighten up on a nigga, but it wasn't working. This nigga made sure my ass wasn't gettin' out today. I'll find some type of way though. I furrowed an eyebrow as I heard a familar voice talkin' to Omari. I heard heels clickin' down the steps I turned my head around and my eyes met..

"Asia?"

Asia smiled from ear to ear. "You remember me baby." Asia licked her lips as she walked over towards me.

"I thought you was locked up."

"I was until my step daddy let me free." She smiled.

"And who the hell is that?"

"Omari." She chuckled as she walked around me playing in my curls. I moved my head trying to get her hands off me. "You know August I always thought you'd choose me." She sighed, then let out an obnoxious laugh.

"Asia I told you what was up." I yelled. "What the hell I gotta do for y'all to let me go?" I damn near pleaded like a little bitch.

Omari walked down and smirked. "Aye baby girl do me a favor and keep an eye out on this mut, I'll be back I gotta handle some business." Omari smirked.

"Okay daddy, you know I won't keep him out my eye sight." She winked at me.

I shook my head, this bitch is clearly insane she needs help just like her mama. I don't know why she so obsessed with me. I guess my dick game got her ass wantin' mo', to bad it's all Jewel's.

"Now back to our conversation, you won't be going anywhere silly. At least not until you admit you're all mines, and break it off with that old bag."

I stared out into space until a plan hit my head, I just hope this shit work. Matter fact I know it will. "That's all I gotta do? Why you ain't tell me baby. I would've been did that a long time ago." I smirked at Asia.

"You're a damn lie August." Asia shook her head. "Matter fact prove it to me."

"You gotta untie me so I can call Jewel and break it off with her."

"I don't trust you August, give me your phone so I can call her myself. I want to make sure you're actually speakin' with her."

I hesitated at first, but I let her dig into my pockets and get my phone. I seen her press Jewel's name, she put the phone up to my ear. "August!" She damn near screamed.

I poked my cheek with my tongue hittin' the end button, so Jewel couldn't hear what I was about to say. "Wassup Jewel." I looked up at Asia to see her staring me down.

"Yeah I ain' at the church, I'm callin' ta' tell you I can't do this wit'cha anymo'. I know who I want and that's Asia." I faked a smile as Asia smiled at me.

"Damn she hung up on a nigga." I shrugged my shoulders.

Asia pecked my cheek. "I can't believe you really did this for me." She cheesed. "Does this means we're official now?"

I nodded my head.

"I wanna hear you say it, ask me." She bit her bottom lip.

Deep down inside I wanted to molly whop this bitch as if I was a female, but I sucked it up. I gotta do what I gotta do to get the hell out here and get to my baby.

"Asia will you be a nigga's girl?"

Asia jumped up and down like a little ass kid. "I thought you'd never ask, Yes i'll be your girl baby."

"Now can you do me a fave an untie ya' nigga' so I can give you some luvin'." I seductively said biting my bottom lip.

"You only gotta tell me once daddy." She licked her lips untying me.

As soon as she untied me I pushed her away, I pushed her hard enough fa' her to fall on the floor. I straight ran up the steps. I quickly called my bodyguards to tell them to meet me at the church. Luckily a taxi rode pass I waved my hand catchin his attention. The taxi stopped and I hopped in, Imma make it to this church.
