*London

•One year later

"Baby can you come here?" I yelled out

"Where you at?" Chris asked in response

"In the closet." I giggled

Moments later I heard his sneakers against our New York hard wood floors until he reached me.

"What are you doing woman?" He laughed referring to me sitting on the floor of the closet

"I don't know what to bring." I pouted

Today was the day we said I do and start living our life with each other forever.

"Just pack warm clothes." He shrugged sitting behind me pulling my body onto his

"Can you believe this is happening?" I asked absent mindedly looking at my clothes that hung neatly on the many racks

"Yup." He pressed his lips to my collar bone sending chills down my spine

"I will be Mrs. Brown." I smiled

Chris and I came a long way. After King was born we moved back to New York to be closer to my family. Chris work at black ink doing tattoo art, something he's been longing for, while I do photography for word up magazine.

We live in a pent house in Brooklyn while the girls go to great private school and King chills with grandma when either Chris or I are at work.

"The jet will be here in 30 minutes, so be ready baby." Chris mumbled onto my neck

"Okay babe." I replied standing up

"Did you talk to Leah? How are the kids?" I asked

"Their fine, just get ready woman." He said in his natural soothing voice

The kids have been with Leah for three days so Chris and I can have time to our self before the wedding.

"I wanna speak to my kids though." I smacked his butt once he stood up

"Aye stop with that gay stuff London." He grabbed his goods making me laugh

"You're so basic." I grabbed a couple pair of shorts

"But you bout to marry little ole basic me" he smacked my butt making me winch in pain

"Ouch Christopher!" I whined

"Want me to kiss it?" He wiggled his eyebrows

"Ew no! I want you to leave so I can focus" I laughed

"You better be ready." He replied walking out the room leaving me to finish packing.

Around 4 we boarded the jet. I sat across from Chris as he looked out the window.

I guess he felt me staring at him.

"Come here." He patted his leg.

I walked the short distance sitting on his lap pressing my face into his neck.

"You nervous?" He asked

"Not really." I confessed

I've been waiting for this moment since I was a little girl. To love a man beside my father. To have someone treat me with respect and know me inside and out. I've always wanted to marry someone who paid enough attention to know when I am upset, sad or even scared. Someone to love me unconditionally.

And Chris is that man.

"Good." He laughed huskily

"All I need you to do on this trip, is to relax and say I do." He replied rubbing his hand up and down my arm
