24

This is it. Two days until I'm officially going to be a Herron. We decided to have our wedding at a church near the mall where we first met. I can't believe that almost 5 years ago, I met the love of my life, and it's all because I ran away from home.

"Earth to Angel?" Taaliya joked as she waved her hand in front of her face. The girls and I decided we would go out to lunch before I had my last night with Zach as Fiancé. "Were you nervous when you got married to Jonah?" I asked her out of the blue. "I was, actually. I was scared I wouldn't be enough for him, but as soon as I saw him at the end of the aisle, I knew he was the one for me and we would be happy. It's like we're finally happy here, remember in North Carolina we were always stressed or upset there? Look at us now! We're care free, married or engaged, pregnant-."

"Wait, who's pregnant?" Hailey asked as she took a bit of her fries. I looked at my group of friends, wondering who it is.

"Taaliya has that glow, I'm pretty sure it's her." I laughed. "How can you tell!" She exclaims, confirming our suspicions. "I was pregnant my self!" I laughed. "Congrats girly!" We all exclaimed and hugged her. "Does Jonah know yet?" Isabella asked as we pulled away. "Not yet, I wanted Angel's and your guy's opinion on how I should tell him." She nodded and ate her food.

"You still have the tests right?" I asked as my phone went off, saying I had a message. "I have the pictures of the ultrasound." She smiled and pulled it out of her bag, then passed it around the table. "You should totally wrap it in a box or bag and give it to him as a birthday present!" Hailey exclaimed.

"Hey, girlies." Christina greeted as she joined us. "Christina!" We all exclaimed as we hugged her. We haven't seen her in awhile since she's been busy with work. "What are we talking about?" Christina asked after she ordered. "How were going to tell Jonah his wife is pregnant." Isabella said as she took at bite of her spaghetti. I dipped my chicken tender in ranch and ate as I listened to the conversation.

"So, you have two days until you're Mrs Herron!" Christina exclaims after a while. "Yup! You guys have no idea how excited I am!" I exclaimed as I realized I never replied to that message. Pulling my phone out of my pocket, I responded to Zach's texts message.

Zach❤️: hey! I'm on my way to pick up your family at the airport with Noah and Reese, should we order a pizza for dinner?

Me: yeah I'm down, tell Reese I said hi!!

Zach❤️: will do, see you later!

After texting I love you, I joined back into the conversation.

I walked into my house after a day of shopping with the girls. I quickly ran into our shared room and hid the new makeup and accessories for the wedding from Zach. After that, I quickly changed into a tank top and a pair of shorts. Skipping down the stairs, I joined Zach in the kitchen. "Hey, baby." I greeted as I hugged him from behind. "Hey, Babe." He greeted as he turned around and set his hands on my waist. "How was your day?" He asked as I set my head on his chest.

"Amazing, I had a total blast with my best friends. How was your day?" I asked him. "The guys came over, we played some games and hung out with Noah. We had fun." He nodded and set his head on top of mine. "It's our last night in the same bed before we're married." I joked. Zach chuckled as I lifted my head from his chest. "Where's my brother?" I asked. "Which one?" He asked. "Nathan." I replied. "Oh, he's in the guest room next to Noah's room. Your dad's in the room farthest from ours, and your younger brothers are sharing the guest room on the other side of us. And Noah is down for a nap." He answered. I nodded and sat on the counter. Zach ordered the pizzas as he stood between my legs.  After he hung up the phone, I brushed hair out of Zach's face. "You seem tired." I joked. His large brown eyes met mine. "I am, Noah woke me up at 4 am and I haven't been able to go back to sleep." Zach confessed. "I'm sorry, bubba." I told him as I ran my fingers through his hair while looking at the clock on the stove. It was currently 5 pm.

"Why don't you go a take a nap on the couch?" I asked him. "I wanted to wait for you to get home so the pizza wouldn't be forgotten." He smiled. I nodded and jumped off the counter, then led Zach to the couch. "Lay down." I instructed. He nodded and laid down on the couch with a pillow under his head. Gently smiling, I pulled the blanket over his body. "I love you." He told me before shutting his eyes. "I love you too. Get some rest." I told him and brushed some hair out of his face. He was passed out in a couple of seconds. Sitting down on the couch opposite of his, I thought about my life these past couple of years.

"Okay, I need a phone so who wants to come with after we help Daniel?" I asked."Me!" A guy said walking in. "Oh sorry thought you were Christina." He said. I furrowed my eyebrows. Damn he's beautiful. "Zach! What took you so long?" Jack asked. "Y'all were supposed to help me. Yet I was still lost half a hour later. Plus I ran into a pole and then I stood there for a while."He said, shrugged. I laughed and asked the question again. "I'll still go." Zach said. I nodded and followed them out with my application. "I'm gonna go to Hot Topic later. Asking for a application too." I said to Taaliya. She was freaking out, walking next to Jonah. "Taaliya right?" He asked. "Yes, big fan." She smiled. I laughed and walked towards Zach, gonna get to know a god himself. "I'm Angel." I smiled as he turned to me. "I'm Zach." He said, smiling at me. "So-." He said but was cut off by him self. He ran into a pole. I laughed and helped him up.

Smiling at the memory, I lovingly looked at Zach's sleeping frame laying on the couch. It was the first time we met each other. A lot of things happened these last couple of years, and I can't believe I turned out to fall in love with a celebrity. The fire in the fireplace made the room just a bit warmer as I waited for the pizza, but all I could think about was my best friends, my fiancé, my son, my non-blood related brothers, my family, everything that joined me in life.

A knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts. I quickly got up as I grabbed my wallet to open the door. "Hi!" I greeted the pizza man. After paying him with tip, he handed me the pizza and left. Shrugging, I closed the door behind him and set the pizza on the counter. Leaving Zach to sleep on the couch, I went upstairs to get my siblings and my dad. Checking on Noah, I saw he was still asleep. Shutting the door, I continued on my journey to wake up my siblings. Nathan was already up, my dad was passed out, and so were my two younger brothers. "Hey, Dad? The pizza's here if you want some." I told him. He nodded and slowly rose out of bed. I left the room and went to wake up my brothers. "Chance, Ben. Wake up." I softly said as I shook them gently. They groaned, but eventually got up. As I joined them downstairs, I saw Zach was still on the couch, peacefully asleep. Grabbing a drink from the fridge, I joined my family at the kitchen island. "Is Zach okay?" Ben asked. "Yeah, Noah woke him at 4 in the morning. He's been up since then." I told them.

Ben nodded and grabbed a slice of pizza, digging in right after. Seeing Zach start tossing and turning, I joined him on the couch. Placed my hand on his warm back, I gently rubbed it to help him sleep. He's been having bad dreams because of all his stress lately, and this usually helps him. His back relaxed at my touch. Zach's big brown eyes opened soon after I placed my hand on his back. "You okay?" I asked him. He nodded and sat up with sleepy eyes. His hand came up to his face and rubbed the sleep from his eyes. "Pizza's here if you want some." I gently told him. He softly nodded and leaned back onto the couch. After eating, I cleaned up and went to take a shower, brushing my teeth, and watched some TV with Zach before falling asleep.
