Blessed

By: CC

Jeff stood there, standing at the altar, waiting for his bride to be, to walk down. He couldn't believe that he was getting married today. He turned to look at his best men. Nick, Drew and Justin. He couldn't choose one between his best friends, so he asked them all, if they would be his best men. He waited nervesly. In just a few moments, she would be walking down the aile. He waited for this day to come, but couldn't actually believe that it was already here.

His heart started pounding fast and his hands started to get clamy. He turned to Nick, who was standing next to him.

"Man, I'm getting really nerves here," He whispered. "What if I can't be the husband, that Desi wants me to be?"

Nick looked up at him, and put a comforting hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry, she loves you. You will do just fine. I was the same way, when Mya and I got married."

Drew couldn't help but over hear Nick and Jeff's conversation.

"If it helps any, I was the same way when Lindsey and I got married," Drew said.

Jeff let out a small laugh. He remembered the day that Lindsey and Drew got married. Everything was total kaos. Lindsey kept on getting sick, for which she was pregnant, with their daughter, Meghan at the time. Her wedding dress got mixed up with someone elses. The flowers were running late and a few of the bride maids got stuck in traffic. But when everything got under control, it went smoothly.

"How could I forget. We had to smack you around a couple times to keep you from going mad," Jeff said, laughing.

Nick and Justin were trying to hold back their laughter.

"That was a crazy day," Justin said.

"What if my wedding turns out like that?" Jeff asked, starting to get worried.

"It won't. Desi is past, the morning sickness, everything is here on time. So, you don't have to worry about that," Nick said.

"But, what if she goes into labor?"

"She won't. She has 3 months to go, before the baby is due," Drew said.

"But, what if...." But Justin cut him off.

"Enough with the but, what if. Nothing will go wrong. Things will go perfectly."

"Sorry guys. I'm just really nerves," Jeff said.

In The Back.

Desiree was waiting nervesly, in the back room. She stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself. She smiled to herself, as she looked at her stomach. She was small for being 6 months pregnant, but the doctor told her, that they baby was healthy. She couldn't believe she was getting married, to a wonderful man, and having a baby.

Her thoughts her shaken away, when there was a knock at the door. She walked over to the door, and opened it.

"Hey guys. I'm so glad that you're here," She said, letting the three girls in. "For a minute, I thought you weren't going to come."

"Why wouldn't we?" Mya asked.

"I don't know. I'm just really nerves here. And I can't think straight here. I just think that I'm going to mess up or something."

"Don't say that. You will do wonderful," Lindsey said, giving her a hug.

"Yeah. Everything will be perfectly," Kylie said. "I just can't wait, until Justin and I get married. I hope it will be just as beautiful as your guys wedding."

"If you let us help, it will be," Desi said. "Does anyone know how Jeff is doing?"

"From the last time I asked to him, he was a nerves reck," Mya said, with a smile. "But, I'm sure, Nick, Drew and Justin, are keeping him from going mad."

The four girls laughed.

There was another knock at the door. It was Desiree's father, telling her that it was time.

"Here goes nothing," She said, to herself as, Her, Mya, Lindsey and Kylie left the room.

They got in their places and waited for the music.

Jeff stood there, and waited for the music to start.

The music started, and Lindsey, Mya and Kylie started walking down the aile. They took their places on the other side of the guys.

Jeff watched as Desiree and her father made their way down the aile. He never realized just how beautiful she was, until he saw her in her dress. His heart filled up with love. He couldn't believe that it was going to happen. Him, a married man. He smiled to himself, of the thought of that. And he was happy that it was going to be with her.

He loved Desiree, with all his heart. He never met a girl like her before. Beautiful, smart, caring, everything he ever wanted in a girl, was in her. And he wouldn't want to be with anyone else.

Even though they had been together for only a short period of time, he never thought he would be this happy with someone.

He stepped down, took a hold of her hand, and helped her up the first step. There, they stood side by side. Jeff turned his head to look at Desiree. He smiled to himself. She looked up and smiled.

Desiree left as though she was going to cry. She was so happy, that once for all, she could call him, hers.

"Dearly beloved. We are garthered here, to join these two people in holy matchamony," The preist started.

It was time for Jeff to say his vow that he wanted to share with her.

"At this time, Jeff, would like to say his own persnally vow. Jeff."

Jeff turned to look at Desiree. He took a deep breath and began. "Desiree, this past 1 1/2 that we have been together, have been the happiest days of my life. I never thought that I could love someone like I love you. You have been the soulmate that I've been waiting for, my whole life. I love you so much and I will never stop loving you. You're the one that completes my soul and my heart. And I'm really glad that I can call you mine."

Desiree looked up at him, with tears streaming down the side of her face. She was touched by his sweet words. She smiled at him.

"And now, Desiree would like to say her vows."

"Jeff, I'm so thankful that you're in my life. I never thought I'd be able to love again, until you stepped into my life. You've helped me through some really tough times, and I thank you for always being there for me. I feel like I've been blessed to have you as my husband and to carry your baby. And I couldn't ask for more. I love you so much and I will cherish every moment we have together."

They turned back to the presit as he continued on with the ceremony.

"Rings please," He said, as Nick handed Jeff the rings.

"Place the ring on her finger and repeat after me," He said, as Jeff slipped the ring on her finger.

"I, Jeffrey Timmons, take thee, Desiree Adams, to be my wife, to have and to hold. Through sickness and in health, to death do us part."

Jeff repeated the preist, not taking his eyes away from Desi.

"Desiree, please place the ring on his finger and repeat after me."

Desiree placed the ring on his finger.

"I, Desiree Adams, take thee Jeff Timmons to be my husband, to have and to hold. Through sickness and health, to death do us part."

And she repeated the words that the preist had said.

"Now, Do you Jeff take Desiree to be your wife?"

"I do," He said, with a wide grin on his face.

"Do you Desiree take Jeff to be your husband?"

"I do," She said, trying hard not to cry.

"With the power of the state of Ohio, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride."

He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him, kissing her softly on the lips. A kiss that they would never forget.

"I give to you, Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Timmons."

Everyone in the church, stood up and started clapping and cheering.

3 Months Later.

Jeff stood next to Desiree, as she pushed. Giving her courage, and telling her that she's doing great.

"You're doing wonderful baby, just a few more pushes," Jeff said, kissing his wife on the forehead.

"It hurts Jeff. I can't go on. I'm so tired," Desiree said, breathlessly. She began to breathe heavier, and she gripped Jeff's hand as another contraction began.

"On this contraction Desiree, I need you to push," Her doctor said.

"Okay," She said, through glitched teeth.

"Push."

And she push. She push and pushed. She put everything she had left and pushed. Crying, screaming cause it hurt like hell.

But in a few seconds, it was over. A soft cry came from what Jeff and Desiree waited for. Finally, after 7 long hours, their baby was finally here.

Desiree started to cry, when she heard her baby cry.

"You did it, Desi, you did it," He said, kissing her on the lips.

"Congradulations. It's a girl!"

Shortly after, the doctor handed Desiree her daughter.

"She's beautiful," Jeff said, looking down at the tiny infant.

"What should we name her," Desiree asked.

"Um...how about Kristina Danielle?"

"That's a perfect name."

Jeff leaned down and kissed his daughter. And whispered something in her ear.

Desiree turned to look at him and smiled. Everything she ever wanted, she had. A wonderful husband and a beautiful daughter. She couldn't ask for more.

"I love you Jeff."

"I love you too baby," He said as he kissed her lightly on the lips.

"I've been blessed with a beautiful family." He whispered against her lips.
