The Day Of The Wedding
"So, Dad..." Stevie nudges Ike excitedly, "you ready for today?"
Ike nods his head, "just hope nothing goes wrong, other than that... I'm more than ready" he smiles at Stevie.
Stevie looks at his father more seriously then, "I'm glad you two sorted everything out and that you're finally happy together..."
"So am I, Son" Ike smiles in agreement.
"Dad. Just promise, that you won't allow the past to affect your marriage with Y/N" Stevie requests of him, "she fell for you without knowing who you really were and remember... she's nothing like Vera."
"I know, Son..." Ike replies in earnest, "I'm truly grateful for that, each day I spend with Y/N. I never thought I would ever get another chance at happiness again, that I'd be getting married again and with another kid on the way either."
"Good!" Stevie pats his father on the back and chuckles, "let's go get you married, Old Man!"
Ike, Stevie, Danny and Ike's father were standing outside the courthouse, waiting on Y/N, along with Lauren and Frankie to arrive.
"I'm glad Lauren's getting along well with Y/N..." Ike suddenly remarks to pass time. "She hasn't once lashed out at Y/N since they've met, she seems really excited about the baby too..."
"Feeling a bit nervous over there are we, Old Man?" Danny chuckles at his father's sudden remark.
"Yeah, I am a bit..." Ike admits with a chuckle, "still can't believe I'm doing this for the third time..."
"Well, at least this time around you knew the girl for longer than two weeks" Ike's father comments in remark.
"Yeah... that was the dumbest thing I ever did..." Ike grunts out in agreement.
"Y/N's a nice girl. Bit young, but nice..." Ike's father shrugs in response again, "at least we know she's not after your money, not like the last one was."
Everyone is quiet then after that, not sure of what to speak about anymore. "They're here guys!" Stevie suddenly announces when the car pulls up.
"Are you ok, Y/N/N?" Lauren looks at you in concern when noticing you were really quiet.
"I'm fine, Sweetie..." you smile at her in response, "just a little nervous though."
"Don't worry, everything's going to be great!" she reassures you with a smile, "you're marry my Dad and I'm going to be a big sister."
You smile at her then, but suddenly let out a small gasp, "whoa! That was a hard one" you rub at your belly.
"What's wrong?" Lauren looks to you in concern.
"The baby just kicked really hard..." you explain to her, "with only a few weeks left until it's arrival, it's been very active."
"Really?" Lauren looks at you in excitement, "can I feel it?"
"Sure thing, Honey..." you smile, taking her and placing it where the baby was kicking you at the moment.
"Wow!" Lauren's looks up at you in amazement, "that's amazing..."
"I'm glad you're excited about becoming a big sister..." you smile at her in response.
"I am too, yeah..." Lauren then remarks, "like you way better than I did Vera." She then explains further, "she was always trying too much to mother me. You don't force me to act like you're my only mother."
You take Lauren's hands in your own then, "I would never try to replace your mother, Sweetie" you tell her, "I'll always be there if you need me though."
The car then comes to a stop then, "we're here, ladies!" Frankie announces.
"Let's go get married, shall we!" you state pulling a funny face, causing Lauren to giggle out as she nods her head in agreement.
"I now pronounce you, Husband and Wife. You may kiss the Bride..." the judge announces and everyone cheers as Ike and Y/N kiss to seal their vows.
"Congratulations you two!" Stevie steps up first to hug Y/N and his father and then Danny take his turn.
Ike's father then hugs Y/N, "welcome to the Family, my girl..."
"Thank you, Mr Evans..." you smile at him in response.
Ike's father waves his hand at her, "call me, Arthur or Dad..."
"Dad it is then..." you smile back at him.
Once everyone had hugged and congratulated them, Ike then announces, "come on, guys... it's time to head home."
"Yeah! Let's party!" Lauren cries out in excitement and everyone chuckles out in amusement.
"You sure you're ready for this, Sweetheart?" Ike looks at you as the car nears the hotel.
"More than ever..." you smirk at him in response, "besides, I wouldn't have chosen a white dress if I wasn't ready to give them something to talk about."
"Well, you look absolutely beautiful in it, Mrs Evans..." Ike remarks, pressing a kiss to your lips.
"Thank you, Mr Evans..." you grin up at him in response, "this is the first and last time you will ever see me in white though."
"I know, Mrs Evans..." Ike flashes you a dimpled smirk then, "you still look gorgeous in it though."
"Mrs Evans..." you giggle out then, "I still need to get to use that."
"You better get use to it, woman" Ike growls out, nipping at your bottom lip, "you're mine now, forever..."
"As you wish, Husband..." you giggle, pecking a kiss against his lips.
"Mr Evans! Mr Evans!" reporters begin shouting out as Ike and Y/N exit the car. "Is it true, that you're the father of Ms Engelbrecht's baby?!"
"Ms Engelbrecht! Is it true, that you've been having an affair with Mr Evans for years?" they then concentrate solely on Y/N.
Ike pulls Y/N tightly against his side then, placing a protective hand over her belly. "If you people actually did your 'homework' correctly, then you would have known that Y/N hasn't even been in this country for the supposed time you're claiming we had this so-called 'affair'."
He then continues on, "there never was an affair, because I've been divorced from my ex-wife for more than a year when Y/N and I met. Now if you'll excuse us, my WIFE..." Ike lifts up your hand to show off your wedding ring, "and I, have a wedding to celebrate."
The crowd then irrupts with more questions, Ike ignores them, leading you into the hotel instead.
"Well... that went well" you drawl out while Ike and you head toward the elevator.
"You ok, Sweetheart?" Ike hooks a finger under your chin, tilting your head up to look at him.
"Just a bit tired..." you nod your head.
"Let's go take a nap then..." Ike presses a kiss against your forehead.
Later That Evening
You were awoken by the baby deciding to use your bladder as a bouncy castle yet again and as you attempted to quietly slip out of bed, you were haltered by the hand Ike had resting on belly. "Where you off to, Sweetheart..." Ike mumbles into your hair as he pulled you closer against himself.
"Your offspring thinks my bladder is a bouncy castle right now, Dear Husband..." you grumble out in response. Ike chuckles out at your remark, releasing his hold to allow you to get up from bed.
"What time is it?" you then yell out from the bathroom.
"It's almost 4pm, Sweetheart" Ike responds, standing at the doorway silently admiring you.
With the reception set to start in an hour's time, you begin to get ready. You silently watched as the bathtub was filling up, when you then felt Ike's presence behind you.
Ike hands grips the seams of your nightgown, slowly lifting it upward and over your head. "What are you doing, Isaac?" you softly hum out as he gently trailed kisses along the side of your neck.
"Helping you get ready, Sweetheart..." Ike responds in a seductive whisper.
"I know that you insist on helping me out of the tub, but into it as well?" you question him with a soft moan as he gently nips at your throat.
Ike helps you to carefully step into the tub, flashing you a dimpled smirk, "I'm just doing my Husbandly duties by taking care of my pregnant WIFE."
"WIFE..." you shake your head with a chuckle, "still sounds weird to hear you referring to me as YOUR wife..."
"Well, you better get used to it, WIFE!" Ike states, getting into the tub with you, "and to me being YOUR husband."
Letting out a little giggle, you tilt your head up toward him for a kiss, "as you wish, HUSBAND..."
Ike and Y/N were lounging in the tub, her back against his front as Ike lazily drew circles across Y/N's belly.
"What would you like, a boy or a girl?" you ask Ike.
"Honestly..." Ike stares down at you then, "as long as the baby is born healthy, it really doesn't matter to me." Shifting slightly with a chuckle he then remarks, "Lauren, on the other hand would love a little sister though."
"Then I hope it's girl" you make the decision then with a nod of the head.
"Either way, I'm sure she'll be happy to have a real-life baby doll to play with" Ike chuckles at your remark, pressing a kiss into your hair. "I'm glad that the two of you are getting along so well."
"I'm just as glad, Isaac" you whisper in confession, "honestly, I thought she wouldn't like me at all."
"She loves you, Sweetheart..." Ike reassures you, "and she can't wait to be a big sister."
"I know that now, Isaac..." you nod your head, "we bonded quite a bit while getting ready for the wedding and with her excitement over the baby."
"See... then there's nothing to worry about" Ike assures you.
Ike steps out of tub, wrapping a towel around his waist. He then proceeds to help you out of the tub and after wrapping you in a towel as well, Ike bends down to pick you up bridal style.
"Isaac!" you gasp out in protest, "I'm even heavier now than I was before! You'll hurt your back!"
"It's our wedding day and I didn't carry my Bride across the threshold..." Ike shrugs your protests off, "so, therefore I'm going to carry her to our bed."
"My... Mr Evans..." you slowly scan Ike from head to toe after he had placed on you the bed, "you're looking delicious enough to eat..."
Ike lets out a throaty chuckle at your remark, "you feeling hungry, Mrs Evans?"
"Oh... I'm feeling quite famished, Mr Evans..." you respond, reaching out to loosen his towel. "Mmmm... I see someone's awake..."
"Sweetheart..." Ike moan out when you grab hold of his length.
"What's wrong Isaac?" you innocently bat your eyelashes up at him while you lazily stroke his cock, "is there something you need?"
Ike lets out a loud groan, "your mouth..."
"What about it?" you look at him in pretend confusion to what he's referring to, "do you need it somewhere?"
Ike grips hold of your chin, tipping down to kiss you. "You know what I want, WIFE..." he growls against your lips, "so stop teasing."
"As you wish dear Husband..." you giggle out, leading his cock toward your parted lips.
"We better get ready..." you tell Ike as he laid with his head rested against your belly, while you lazily stroked your fingers through hair.
"Just a few for minutes, Sweetheart..." Ike hummed, pressing a kiss to your belly.
You giggle at his response, "we don't want to be late for own wedding reception, Isaac."
"We can always tell them, that we're getting a head start on the honeymoon..." Ike suggests, looking up at you with a dimpled smirk.
"Oh, hush you..." you chuckle, pushing yourself up into a sitting position.
"Wow!" Ike looks at you in amazement at seeing you in your dress for the reception, "I thought your wedding dress was beautiful, but this dress..."
You walk up to him then, grabbing hold of his tie, "you're looking quite handsome yourself, Mr Evans..." you pull him down to your height for a kiss.
Ike grabs hold of your butt, pulling you flush against his body to deepen the kiss. "Hold up there, big boy!" you break the kiss with a giggle, "we have a wedding reception to attend..."
Ike and Y/N were seated at the main table, laughing at the speeches being made by friends and family. Stevie had just finished with his and then it was the couple's turn to do so.
Ike begins his first, "Where do I start? I guess at the beginning right" he lets out a chuckle as he adoringly stares down at Y/N.
"When I first arrived at the M.J, it was strictly for business, but that night..." Ike lifts Y/N's hand up to press a kiss into it, "that night, was the first time I laid eyes on this beautiful lady standing here next to me..."
"I was blown away by this lady. Not only was she talented, she had an aura around her that absolutely drew me to her. I knew I had to make it my mission to get to know her better." Ike shakes his head, chuckling, "Let me tell you guys... that was one heck of a mission!"
Everyone one was laughing at his last remark and after a pause, Ike continues on. "We had our ups and downs but at the end of it all, we made it through... and if anyone should ask me now; if I believed in love at first sight?" Ike cups Y/N's cheek, "I would tell them; YES. Because that night, when I first saw you on that dance floor; was the night I fell in love with you..."
Ike presses his forehead against Y/N's, "thank you for taking a chance on this Old Man, for making me a father again. I love you, Sweetheart..." he then kisses her.
"BRAVO! BRAVO!" a woman's voice loudly yells out sarcastically along with with the sound of clapping.
Ike looks up to see who it was making a scene; the woman begins to make her way toward him and Y/N then. Once she reaches them, Ike realizes in shock that it was; VERA!
"I must say, I was quite disappointed when I never got an invitation, Isaac" Vera shakes her head in disapproval at him. "I had to hear through an acquaintance that you were getting married today."
"Vera. What the hell are you doing here?" Ike hisses out at her.
"I took it upon myself to come and personally congratulate the new Miramar 'Queen'..." Vera sneers out, looking down at Y/N in disgust.
You stood there next to your Husband, in utter shock as his ex-wife continues on with her vindictive rambling.
"Tell me, my dear... did it really take this long for him to make a commitment?" Vera smirks at you in amusement, "I mean... it took him only two weeks to decide that he wanted to marry me and then we were, immediately..."
Vera lets out a small cackle as she scans you with a sneer, "I can't say, I blame him though... by the looks of you, it seems you were rather chubby already before getting pregnant."
"Vera, that's enough!" Ike yells out at her.
"Oh..." Vera pretend gasps and then giggles, "did I hit a nerve? I'm sooo sorry..."
Ike takes a step towards her then, looking like he might strangle her at that moment and you grab of his arm to stop him.
"Oh, so that's it!" Vera chuckles out in realization, "he only married you because you got pregnant! I must say; smart move there..." She then sarcastically winks at you, "that's one way to trap a man."
Stevie grabs hold of Vera then and as he attempts to drag her out, she breaks free and grabs a nearby champagne glass. "A toast! To the Homewrecker!" Vera lifts the glass in the air, "may you enjoy the life that you stole from me!" taking a sip, she then smashes the glass onto the fall.
Once Stevie and security finally drag Vera out, Ike turns his concern to you. "Are you ok, Sweetheart?"
"I'm ok, Isaac" you reply a bit annoyed at all that just happened. "I think it would be best if we just skipped my speech and continued on with the rest of the evening."
Ike leads you back towards your table and just as you reach it you let out a loud gasp, your legs give out under you then, causing you to clutch at your belly due to the sharp pain that had hit you.
"Sweetheart!" Ike cries out as he catches your fall in time. "Y/N. What's wrong?" he looks at you in panic.
"I-I don't kno..." you then feel a burst of liquid run down your legs. "Isaac... I think my water just broke" you state, looking at him with wide eyes.
Ike looks at you with shock, "what?!" His eyes then drop down to see the puddle at your feet. "Danny!" Ike cries out, lifting you up in his arms, "get the car! Y/N's gone into labour!"
