Big Day
one-shot
Tears filled Kevin's eyes, his baby girl was getting married. Memories flashed through his head like slideshow of images. One memory stood out the most.
Savannah ran through the door. "Mom! Dad!" She screamed running into the kitchen. "I'm home."
They hadn't seen Savannah in almost two years, although they heard from her on a weekly basis. She had called them about two weeks ago to inform them that she was coming home from New York to visit and she was bringing a surprise.
"Mom, Dad, meet my fiancée, Aaron Brewer." Savannah was grinning from ear to ear.
Brewer, Kevin had thought, that name sounds familiar but he eventually shrugged it off.
"My baby girls getting married?" Lucy had cried, it had come as a shock, she had told them about a year and a half ago that she had a new boyfriend, and this must be the man. He would have argued, saying that he wanted to get to know the boy that was marrying his daughter before she married him, but he could see how much she was in love with the boy, and he couldn't possibly ruin it.
Now Kevin found himself sitting in the living room, it was the day of the wedding, April 14th. In no way was he ready to give away his oldest daughter. The time between her announcement, four days before Christmas, 'til now, had flown by. Savannah had returned to college along with Aaron, for their graduation ceremony and they stayed there for a bit. They had returned to Glen Oak at the end of February, so they could finish planning the wedding.
Savannah came down the stairs of the home, a hand rested on her growing belly. Now five months pregnant, she was showing, and had gotten a wedding dress to show it off. Savannah, Aaron, nor the rest of the family had known she was pregnant until Savannah fainted and was rushed to the hospital. Kevin remembered that day.
The doctor entered the waiting room where Kevin, Lucy and Aaron sat on the plastic seats, waiting for an update on Savannah who had been rushed to the hospital after passing out while wedding dress shopping.
"What's wrong with my baby girl?" Lucy asked immediately.
"Your baby girl is fine. She wasn't eating properly with the planning for the wedding. So she had became anemic. She would like to see you three now, though." The doctor said and pointed out her room to them.
"Oh Vanna. You are going to make sure you are eating properly from now on!" Lucy stated when the three had entered her room.
"I know I have to, now that I am eating for two." Savannah grinned.
"Yes…two?" Kevin asked.
"I'm pregnant, three months pregnant." Savannah grinned more.
Just then they turned as they heard Aaron falling into the chair, after fainting.
Aaron was lucky that he fainted at that moment, that was how Kevin felt. Or he would have been dead. He had gotten Savannah pregnant, before they were married. There was two things that saved him, one, he fainted, two, he and Savannah were getting married in less than two months. Savannah had then informed them, that she had gotten pregnant on she and Aaron's only time, the night he had asked her to marry him. Kevin didn't understand why they couldn't wait, but finally gave up, under the pressure of the fact that they were getting married in just a few months.

All the girls were crowded around Savannah. Lucy was helping her get her dress on. That beautiful dress that Savannah had fallen in love with, it was a strapless wedding dress that would show off her pregnant belly, a symbol of her new family to be growing within the next four months. Ruthie was doing Savannah's hair, curling her blonde hair. And Mary and Sarah were doing Savannah's make up. Savannah's younger sister, Danielle, who was five was the flower girl. Her other sister, Morgan, who was sixteen, was her made of honor. Savannah fidgeted nervously as she heard the wedding march begin to play.
"You'll be fine, baby girl." Lucy whispered in Savannah's ear, giving her a quick hug. "And in five minutes you will no longer be Savannah Kinkirk."

Next thing Savannah knew, she heard her mother speaking. Her dad had already escorted her, and given her away. "Savannah Kinkirk, do you take the Aaron Brewer, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, 'til death do you part."
"I…" Savannah looked up as she heard a door closing and then the scream of her aunt.
"MARTIN?!"
Savannah shook her head, not good. Aaron's dad, Martin, was the guy that Savannah's aunt Ruthie had talked about constantly when Savannah was little, saying how Martin had promised he would come back for her. It was a simple story. Aunt Ruthie loves Martin, Martin impregnates chick, Martin welcomes son named Aaron, Aunt Ruthie heartbroken, Martin visits, Martin promises to come back for Aunt Ruthie and Martin never shows back up. And now she was marrying the guy who, if it was up to her aunt, would be her step-cousin. Savannah could here the mutters of 'oh no' from throughout the church. She shot a pleading look to her mother.
"Okay everyone, let's not ruin Savannah and Aaron's wedding." Lucy closed her eyes. "We can continue this little reunion at the wedding reception."
Savannah breathed a sigh of relief, silently thanking her mother.
"So, as I was saying, Savannah Kinkirk, do you take the Aaron Brewer, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, 'til death do you part?" Lucy asked facing her eldest daughter.
Savannah grinned. "I do."
"Aaron Brewer, do you take the Savannah Kinkirk, to be your lawfully wedded bride, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, 'til death do you part?" Lucy asked after turning to face her soon to be son-in-law.
Aaron grinned. "I do."
Lucy smiled, through her tears. "I now pronounce you man and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Brewer, you may kiss the bride."
And they kissed. Tears fell from Lucy and Kevin's eyes, they were losing their baby girl.
The End.
What did you think? I know I should've went into detail of the whole Martin and Ruthie thing, maybe I'll include an epilogue later of the reception.
