"I can't believe your getting married." said my mom teary eyed "And you are going to have a baby. Seems just like yesterday I was bringing you home from the hospital."
"It's okay Mom no matter what I will always be your little girl. Nothing is going to ever change that. I love you." I said
"I love you too." she said hugging me
"You ready? It's almost time." my dad asked
"Yeah let's do this." I said taking his arm
"You look so beautiful honey. I'm sorry I haven't been the dad you deserved, but I promise I will make it up to you. I love you so much." He said tears sliding down his face
"None of that matters. All that matters that you are here now. I love you." I said trying not to cry
The music started to play as the doors opened. Everyone stood up and turned around to watch me walk down the aisle. I looked to the front of the church and saw Ben standing there and smiled through the tears. When we finally got up there, my dad put my hand in Ben's and said that he was trusting him with his little girl and to take care of me. We turned toward the preacher as everyone sat down. We came to the part of the ceremony were we exchanged vows, which we wrote our own.
"Arianna, I remember when we first met. You were thirteen and I thought you were an annoying little girl. Then you came back when you were eighteen and I thought damn, she grew up to be beautiful and a smart ass. Part of me fell for you instantly but the other half fought it like a dumb ass. But you being the stubborn ass that you are wouldn't let it go. I got to know you and figured out that the other half loved you too. You wiggled you into my heart and I' m glad you did. I love you with all my heart. I will love you forever." He said
"Ben when we first met I thought you were a pretentious ass but cute. Then when I came back, I still thought you were a pretentious ass but I also thought you were gorgeous. I fell for you hook line and sinker. You took a little convincing but I was up to the challenge. I don't know what I would have done without you. You helped me see that love does exit and that I deserve it just as much as anyone else. Now we are going to have a little boy and I couldn't be happier. I love you with all my heart and always will." I said
The preacher pronounced us husband and wife. Ben grabbed me and kissed me. After a while someone cleared their throat and told us to save it for the honeymoon and everyone laughed. The reception lasted until almost 3 in the morning. We spent our honeymoon in Texas. We spent two weeks there and then we came home and did some last minute preparations for Draven's arrival. We put the crib together and painted the walls. We were sitting at Adam's house after a pack meeting talking when I started to have some pains. I didn't say anything because I thought they were just the Braxton hicks contractions my doctor had been telling me about. I was standing in the kitchen getting something to drink and all of a sudden I had the sensation that I had peed my pants.
"BEN I THINK MY WATER JUST BROKE." I screamed into the living room. Ben came running in with Adam, Warren and Mercy on his heels
"It couldn't have you are only 7 and a half months. It's too early." he said panic in his voice.
"Calm down both of you. Panicking isn't going to help anything. Have you been having any pain?" asked Adam
"Yeah all day. I just thought they were the Braxton hicks ones." I said
"Well evidently they weren't." said Mercy
"You better call the doctor Ben." said Warren
As Ben called the doctor, they got me in the car. By the time we got to the hospital, the contractions were getting really close together and very painful. They got me into a room and the doctor came in and looked at me.
"Well there is no stopping it your water has definitely broken and you are already dilated to nine. Hope you can deal with the pain because you can't get an epidural now." said the doctor
"Is the baby going to be OK?" I asked
"The baby should be fine since you went into labor on your own." Said the doctor "I will be back in a half an hour to check you again."
"Well this sucks. I wish I could have an epidural, these contractions are killing me." I said through clenched teeth "Did anyone call my parents?"
"Yes I called them right after I called the doctor. They are both on their way here right know." said Ben taking my hand "Here squeeze my hand. It might help."
"You're great honey. I love you." I said
"I love you too."
About fifteen minutes later the doctor came in and said I could push. It only took three pushes and he was out. He came out screaming and perfectly healthy. He had blonde hair and blue eyes. He looked just like his dad. We had to stay in the hospital for two days before they let us go home. Everyone came over to see him even Bran came.
"He is beautiful." said Bran
"Thanks Bran." I said smiling
"Can he change like you?" He asked
"Yep he looks like his dad when he does too." I said
" Well in that case you better watch out. Ben can be a feisty one." Said Bran
"He's not that bad." I said laughing
That was two years ago. Now we have a two year old son and a daughter on the way. Life couldn't be better for us. We are still as happy as the day we got married.
