One Chicago Life

Wedded Bliss

I woke up and stretched slowly, amazed that I was able to sleep at all last night. There was about 12 to 15 of us staying here at the cabin last night and time slipped away faster than we had thought. I think I finally crawled into a bed after 2. I looked at my phone and gasped when I saw that it was almost 10. I jumped out of bed as fast as my pregnant body could and rushed out of the bedroom door running into Kelly Severide and becoming very dizzy as I did. "Woah, are you ok?" He asked as he steadied me as I leaned my head forward, resting my elbows on my knees breathlessly. "Yes, this excited pregnant woman just stood up to fast." Before I knew it a chair was under me and a glass of water was being placed in my hand and a nervous Kelly, Gabby and April were standing over me. I took a few sips of water and a couple deep breaths. "Thank you, I feel much better now." Gabby nodded, "well you are still staying right here until you have eaten something. I am not going to let the bride pass out on her wedding day, especially with being pregnant." Kelly agreed, "Yeah, Jay told us we were in charge of making sure you were relaxed and safe while he was out doing something with Will and that He would kill us all if something happened to you, so here eat please." He set a big plate of fruit, yogurt and muffins in front of me along with an envelope. I opened it and read Jay's clear handwriting:
My Dear Wife to Be,
I hope you know how much I love you. You absolutely have my whole heart and I never want it back. You healed me from being broken and showed me that I could safely hand over my heart again. We were meant to be together and I can't wait to wake up to your beautiful face every morning. I will never get tired of showing you how much I love you each and every day. I can't wait to experience everything with you and our baby girl makes it even better. You are an amazing mother already. I hope you enjoy our wedding day. I want you to relax as much as possible. A massage therapist will be in at 11 to pamper you for at least an hour. I won't see you until the wedding my love. Enjoy your day. I can't wait until I get to see my beautiful bride on this special day.
Love Jay,
Forever & Always

I smiled as tears ran down my face. This man took such good care of me. I couldn't wait to see how he took care of our baby girl. I quickly wrote him a letter as well as I ate my breakfast. Just as I finished there was a knock at the door. "Please tell me that's not guests already?" I mumbled. Gabby smiled, "no silly, it's the massage therapist here to help you relax. I folded up my note to Jay and handed it to Kelly. "Can you get this to Jay sometime before tonight please? And no peeking!" I smirked at him as I followed Gabby and the massage therapist.
I thoroughly enjoyed my massage and facial. Before I knew it a whole crew had arrived to help me get ready. I tried to get downstairs to get some food but was banned and promised some lunch would be brought up.
Jay was in the kitchen with Will back from their secret "thing" they had. Kelly handed Jay a folded note. "Kaycie wanted me to give this to you." It read:

My Dearest Jay,
You are the first thing I think about when I wake up every morning, and the last thing I think about before I go to bed. You're the person I love the most, but also my very best friend. I'm so grateful that I get to spend this life with you. My dreams came true when I met and fell in love with you. What is even more amazing is that we are now building dreams together. I cannot thank you enough for coming into my life and making it what it is today. I am the luckiest woman in the world to have you in my life. You are going to be an amazing Dad to our baby girl. I love you so much! And I always will.
Love Kaycie,
Always Yours
Jay smiled and folded it back up carefully and placed it in his pocket. He finished his lunch and went to take a shower. Before he knew it, it was time to go outside. The decorators has been busy all afternoon and it was perfect. Jay went outside with Will and Adam.
