Drunk In Love (Hessa)

Tessa

No one says anything. I think they didn't expect to share this kind of news before marriage, but it happened. Let's hope they will be happy for us. Now, I suppose they are speechless. But this silence doesn't last more because Cassie gets up and she comes to hug us.

"Oh my God! I'm so happy!"

"Congratulations guys!" Dad comes and he hugs us. "I'm sure your mother is really proud of you." He kisses my forehead and I smile.

Everyone congratulates us and we hug, then we decide to show them the ultrasound. We give it to Trish and she explains to the others the ultrasound, while me and Hardin sits on the couch and we watch them. He has his hand on my abdomen and I love feeling his hand there.

After half hour, me, Cassie, Lexie and Trish go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Trish: "And, what Addie said?"

Tessa: "Everything is going well, the baby's healthy and tomorrow morning, I'll do some blood tests."

Trish: "That's good."

After having dinner with our families, we go back to our place. We get changed in pajamas and we get in bed.

"Thank you for today."

"For our fight from this morning?"

"Yes. It helped you to understand that you want me and our baby."

"I do." He smiles and he pecks my lips. "Let's sleep. This baby needs his mummy to sleep, so he can grow."

"Yes. I love you." I smile and I kiss him. I never thought Hardin can be like this. And I can't wait to see him as a father for our baby.

"I love you."

The next day...

We had a long day. We went to the hospital this morning and after that, we went to check the restaurant. And to check the last details for tomorrow, and at night, we had dinner with family.

Lexie: "Brother, say goodbye to your fiancée. You won't sleep together."

Hardin: "Bullshit. I'm going to sleep with her and that's it."

Lexie: "You won't die for a night! She'll be all yours."

Tessa: "Let's sleep apart tonight. It will be fine."

Lexie: "Yeah! We're going to have fun."

Hardin: "Okay..." He sighs. "But don't keep her awake all night. She needs to rest."

Tessa: "I promise." I smile and I kiss him. "Goodnight."

Hardin: "Goodnight, love."

Hardin kisses me and he leaves. We sit on the couch and we start to watch a movie. Around 12am, we decided to go to sleep because we will have an early morning tomorrow.

But the sleep did came to me, so I get up from bed and I go downstairs to drink some water. When I walk back to the stairs, the door opens and I see Hardin.

"What are you doing here?" I walk to him with a smile on my face. I wrap my arms around his neck and I look at him.

"I can't sleep without you. What about you?"

"Me neither."

"Come with me to bed."

"Okay." I say and we go back home. I can't sleep without him.

We get on our bed, we cuddle and after a few minutes, I finally fall asleep.

When I wake up, it's still dark outside and I'm woke up by a terrible nausea. I quickly get up and I run to the bathroom where I end throwing up. At some point I feel Hardin's hand rubbing my back. After a few minutes, my stomach is empty and I finally can get up. I hate this feeling and I hope I will get rid of it soon.

"Do you need anything?"

"Some water, please."

"Alright. Let me take you to bed first." He lifts me up and he takes me to our bedroom, then he goes to bring me a glass of water.

"Thank you." I take some sips and I put the glass on the table.

"Will you be okay?"

"Yes, I will." I smile. "First trimester nausea is horrible. I remember how bad Lexie was."

"My mother is making breakfast. Do you want to join them? It's okay if you don't, I'm sure they will understand."

"No, no. We should have breakfast. It's our wedding breakfast." I smile and he kisses me. "Just give me a few moments to recover."

"Alright."

After 20 minutes, I feel better and we go to have breakfast with our family. Last breakfast as boyfriend and girlfriend.

Cassie: "You left me alone last night."

Tessa: "I couldn't sleep without him. I'm sorry."

Trish: "How are you feeling, darling?"

Tessa: "Not that good, but I will be able to get married today."

A few hours later...

I take a look in the mirror and I smile. Even if this morning I was sick and pale, I have a natural glow on my face and I'm feeling well. The dress is fitting perfectly on my body and I feel like a princess. I hear a knock on the door and I go to see who it is.

Cassie: "You are gorgeous, sissy." She hugs me and I smile.

Richard: "You are stunning, baby girl."

Tessa: "Thank you. I wish mom would be here."

Richard: "She's in our hearts."

Cassie: "Shall we go? You future husband is really impatient."

Tessa: "Yes."

Dad and Cassie are walking me down the aisle, to my beloved boyfriend to be husband. His eyes are glowing when he sees me and I can see how impatient he is.

The civil officer says a few words and then we start to say our vows.

"To be honest, I had no idea that I would be here so soon. I always were an adventurous boy and I didn't like a long term relationship... This was until you." he smiles. "You came in my life like a storm and you changed for better. It's been a while since we know each other and in these last years, we've been through a lot. But here we are today, tying the knot. From the first time I saw you, I knew you are the one. We have a past, with goods and bads. I love you forever."

"We didn't have a good start. Our beginning was as friend and things evolved quickly and we were involved romantically. We had a lot of good and bad moments and I think they were good for us. I think this brought us together forever. You saved me from a toxic relationship and I will always be grateful. After years, we're today together, living the best day of our life. I will always only love you."

We exchange our rings and then, Hardin drags me to kiss me. As we kiss, everyone are clapping around us. We did it. We're married and we're having our family.
