Chapter 6:
“This is real, this is me. I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be now.” - Demi Lovato “This is Me”.
I woke up bright and early the morning after I found my wedding dress. I had to drive to the airport and pick Teddy up. There were tons of things that we needed to discuss. One of the biggest things was a date. We needed to set a wedding date.
“There she is!” Teddy exclaimed as he walked off the plane and gave me a big hug. “How have you been? It’s been too long.”
“I’ve been great. I got my wedding dress yesterday,” I said, smiling.
“That’s good!”
“I know. I got really lucky. The dress is GORGEOUS. You will love it.”
“I know I will. I’ll love anything you put on though.”
“True,” I said with a laugh. “Okay, on to some more serious business, we need to set a date for this wedding of ours.”
“Okay. Tell me what you’re thinking of.”
“Well, it’s almost October now. I think we need to wait about six months, which means it will be the end of March.”
“How about we get married the first weekend in April?”
“We’ll look at the calendar when we get home. For now I need a kiss.”
“And a kiss you shall get,” Teddy said as he kissed me.
“So, how was being on the road? How were the shows? Were they good?”
“They were excellent. Everyone was loving the shows…especially me. I can’t believe I’m here, doing this. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be here.”
“Aw, I love you.”
“I love you too,” Teddy said as he kissed me again.
-Mine All Mine-
We arrived back at my uncle’s house and went straight to the kitchen. I grabbed a calendar and the two of us sat down at the table. We had to look at dates for our wedding.
“You said the first weekend of April, didn’t you?” I asked Teddy as I thumbed through the calendar.
“Yep, first weekend of April. What date would that first Saturday be?” Teddy asked.
“It would be April the fourth.”
“Sounds perfect. What do you think?”
“I think that’ll do. So, are we SURE that’s the day we want?”
“Yes. That’s the day we want.”
“Alright then…we’ll add it to the calendar, and I’ll put it in my calendar that I keep in my purse. When are your groomsmen going to be in town for their tuxedo fitting?”
“Tomorrow.”
“Okay, perfect. Tomorrow we’ll go pick out the tuxedos, and then I have to go meet with the florist. My bridesmaids won’t be in town until the day after tomorrow.”
“That sounds like a plan to me.”
“Ah…I just wish the wedding day was here already.”
“You and me both.”
“You’re just ready for the honeymoon.”
“So are you.”
“I know I am.”
“See, you knew you couldn’t deny it.”
“Nope…can’t deny it,” I said as I looked at Teddy’s beautiful blue eyes and smiled at him. “There’s something I think we should talk about.”
“Oh great…did you cheat on me while I was gone?”
“No silly. It has nothing to do with that. This is something serious. It’s been on my mind since you proposed.”
“Well, what is it? What’s bothering you? What’s been on your mind?”
“How long do we want to wait before we have kids? Are we going to wait five years or five months?”
“Oh, um, I don’t know. It doesn’t really bother me.”
“Honestly, I think I’m ready to be a mom. I say whenever it happens, it happens.”
“I’m with you.”
“You sure? I mean, you’re in the middle of watching your career sky rocket. You’re on a fast road to becoming the next big singer.”
“I know I am, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to be a father. I’m twenty-one years old. I don’t want to be thirty-five and having my first child.”
“Believe me, I don’t want to be in my thirties and having my first child either.”
“I’ve always wondered. How many kids DO you want?”
“Five.”
At that moment Teddy’s gum fell out of his mouth. His jaw dropped. It looked as if it was going to hit the table.
“Holy…wow. That’s a lot of…work,” Teddy said.
“But you like the work…admit it.”
“Well, yes, but still. That’s a lot of kids. I only wanted three.”
“Well, I want five.”
“Okay then,” Teddy said, getting up from the table.
“Teddy,” I called out after him. “There’s something else I need to tell you.”
“What?” he asked, stopping in his tracks and turning back around to face me.
“I’m pregnant.”
“Say what?”
“I’m pregnant Teddy.”
“What? Okay. When did you find out?”
“Last night…like literally right before I went to bed. I wasn’t feeling right, and I knew something about me felt different, and I didn’t know what it is. I didn’t really think I was pregnant, but I took the test and it came out positive.”
“How is that going to work with the wedding? Do we want to push it back?”
“No.”
“Then what are we going to do? I’m just asking you. Do you want to have your wedding pictures taken when you’re six months pregnant?”
“Would you have a problem with that?”
“Well, no.”
“Then good. The wedding is going to stay April fourth. I’ll just have to go and get my dress in a bigger size, once the time gets closer.”
“Do your aunt and uncle know about this?”
“No,” I sighed, shaking my head as the front door opened.
“I think you should tell them.”
“Aunt Kim, Uncle Brad…can we talk?” I asked as they entered the kitchen, Uncle Brad holding Huck.
“Sure Kourtni. What’s up?” Uncle Brad asked as he handed Huck over to Teddy, who then walked off towards the living room.
“Well, first thing…Teddy and I set a wedding date. We’re going to get married on the fourth of April, 2010. The second thing is that I’m pregnant. I found out last night, like right before I went to bed. I knew something was wrong with me, so I decided to take a test.”
“Aw, Kourtni, sweetie, congratulations,” Aunt Kim said as she gave me a big hug.
“Thanks Aunt Kim.”
“I’m not going to yell at you. I’m fine with it. I think you’re ready to be a mother. You’ll do fine. Congratulations,” Uncle Brad said as he too gave me a big hug.
“Thanks Uncle Brad,” I said with a smile as I headed towards the living room.
I walked in the living room and Teddy had Huck laying on a blanket. Teddy was leaning over, blowing on his stomach.
“One, two, three…” Teddy said as he blew on Huck’s tummy again. Huck was all smiles and couldn’t stop laughing. “Oh, hey babe. How’d it go?”
“They’re both excited…even Uncle Brad,” I said with a smile as I bent down and sat next to Teddy and Huck.
“Kourtni, your Aunt Kim and I are going out to dinner tonight. Would you and Teddy mind watching Huck for us?” my uncle asked as he poked his head in the living room.
“Oh, no sir. We’d love to watch Huck. It’d be good for us…since we’re expecting and all,” I said with a smile.
“Okay. Thanks. We’ll be leaving in twenty minutes, when your Aunt Kim is dressed and ready.”
“Okay.”
-Mine All Mine-
“Teddy…this feels so right. I feel like I’m where I’m supposed to be in life. I’m going to get married and then have a baby shortly after. This is my dream come true,” I said as Teddy and I lay in bed after a long night of babysitting.
“My dream come true happened the day I met you,” Teddy told me.
“You’re such a sweetheart. That’s one thing I love a lot about you. And I loved seeing you interact with baby Huck. You were so good with him. That showed me you’re going to be an awesome dad.”
“And you’re going to be the coolest mom ever…not to mention the hottest.”
“Oh, hush!”
“I know it’s a while before we find out what we’re having, but do you have any names that you like?”
“Oh, of course I do.”
“Can I hear them?”
“If it’s a boy, I have to name him after my father who passed away…Stephen Cooper would be his first and middle name. If it’s a girl, I like the name Landon Kate.”
“I’m totally cool with you naming our first son after your dad. I know it’ll mean a lot to you.”
“Yeah, you’re right. What about the girl’s name? Did you like it?”
“I’ve never heard of a girl named Landon, but I really like it. I like the way it sounds.”
“Good,” I said with a smile. “Okay. It’s time for me to get some sleep. You need to be going to sleep shortly too. We’ve got a big day ahead of us tomorrow.”

Chapter 6:
“If you didn’t love me, I don’t know how I’d get through this.” - Phil Stacey’s “If You Didn’t Love Me”.
It had been about a month since I had told Teddy about being pregnant. Things were going great. We were planning so much for the wedding. Before either of us knew it the big day was going to be here.
Today was going to be different though. I was headed to the doctor for a check up instead of heading to some place to talk about wedding plans. Thankfully Teddy was in town so he was going to be able to go with me. Supposedly the doctor was going to see if he could tell the sex of the baby, which excited me. I was dying to know what I was having.
“Let’s have a look at this little baby,” my doctor said when he walked into the room. He turned on the ultra sound machine and began to move the stick around on my belly. When I didn’t hear or see anything I became nervous.
“Doctor, is there something wrong?” I asked him.
“I…”
“Please tell me the truth. I need to know.”
“It appears you have lost the baby.”
“What? How is that possible?” I asked as I began to sit up. “There must be a mistake. Something has to be wrong with the machine.”
“Ma’am, there’s nothing wrong with the machine.”
I didn’t have any other response to my doctor. I simply grabbed a towel, wiped the gel off of my stomach, hopped off the table and ran out of the doctor’s office. Of course Teddy wasn’t far behind me.
“Kourtni, wait up,” he said as he finally stopped me.
“Leave me alone! I’m such a loser! I can’t even keep a baby. That shows you how stressed out I am! Every baby I’ve had has DIED. I’m nothing but a failure. I don’t even see why you want to marry me!” I screamed as I pushed Teddy away from me.
“Baby, you aren’t a failure. God’s just trying to show us that now isn’t the right time for us to have a child. We’ll have a baby when the time is right. He’ll bless us, I promise he will,” Teddy said as he held me in his arms and showered me with kisses.
“I know, but what has he done this to me for a second time? First he has my ex beat me and kill our baby and now he just chooses to have the baby die. WHY? WHAT HAVE I DONE WRONG?”
“I can’t answer that hun, but I’m sure he’s got a good reason.”
“I’d like to know his reason. I want to know his reason NOW.”
“Just calm down. Let’s just go back to your uncle’s house and just chill. Let’s not do anything but lie in bed, watch chick flicks, and eat ice cream.”
“But I don’t WANT to watch chick flicks, and I don’t WANT to eat ice cream.”
“Then what do you want to do hun?”
“I don’t know what I want to do. I don’t know ANYTHING anymore.”
“How about we do what we do best?”
“Which would be?”
“Like you don’t know.”
“No, I don’t know.”
“How about I give you a little hint or preview?”
“Okay,” I said as Teddy kissed me on my neck. “Okay, okay. Enough. You know that is my weakness. When you do that I feel like I’m going to fall to my knees at any moment.”
“Then let’s get back to the house.”
“What are we standing here for? Let’s GO,” I said as Teddy picked me up and ran for my car.
“I hope this doesn’t bother you when I say it, but we’re complete horn dogs. You know that…right?”
“It’s kind of obvious…but I don’t mind it. Now hurry it up! Let’s get in the car, drive on home, and well, you know the rest. Hurry!”
“I’m going as fast as I can,” Teddy said as he put my down, opened my door, and ran to the driver’s side. “Okay…we’re on our way,” he said as he backed out of his parking space and flew out of the parking lot.
-Mine All Mine-
Of course Teddy flew home. I was surprised the boy didn’t get a speeding ticket. I was quite proud of him. We ran into the house, not bothering to tell my uncle and aunt anything that had taken place today. We entered my bedroom, and I slammed the door shut as Teddy locked it. Off went Teddy’s clothes and soon after off went mine.
“I know this is going to sound really weird coming from me, but I think you should use a condom…just because I don’t want to be pregnant again anytime soon. I can’t go through this anymore,” I told Teddy.
“Um…fine,” Teddy said as he began to dig in the pockets of his blue jeans.
“Do you just carry those things around with you every day?”
“Not every day…just when I’m with you, just in case you ever brought it up. It’s a good thing I’m prepared…right?”
“Right,” I said with a nod as I climbed into my bed and got up under the covers. “d**n boy…why do you do this to me?”
“Because I can,” Teddy said with a mischievous smile as he climbed on top of me and began kissing me.
“You are right. You sure can,” I whispered as I let Teddy take over.
But before I knew it, there was a knock at my door.
“Open up,” my uncle Brad screamed, his tone having a little bit of anger in it.
“Great. He doesn’t sound too happy,” I whispered as I climbed out of bed and quickly slipped my clothes on. “I’m coming! I was just fixing to hop in the shower,” I lied as I looked back at Teddy who was also putting his clothes back on.
“You are so bad,” he whispered.
“And you aren’t?” I asked in a whisper as I put my hand on the door knob, turned it slightly, and opened my door. “Hey Uncle Brad, what’s up?”
“I was just coming to see how your doctor’s appointment went,” he asked.
“Uncle Brad, I lost the baby. I guess I was stressing out? I didn’t even realize it.”
“Oh hun, I’m so sorry. How about I send you and Teddy on a little vacation? It’ll relieve stress off of both of you, because I know you’re both stressed with all of this wedding planning.”
“Sounds like a plan to me.”
“Where do you want to go?”
“Las Vegas!” Teddy exclaimed.
“Is that okay with you?” my uncle asked me.
“Sure! I’d love to go to Vegas. It’s been a while since I’ve been there.”
“Okay. I’ll get right on making some reservations and what not. You two get back to whatever you were doing,” my uncle said as he pulled the door closed.
“We’re going to Vegas!” I exclaimed as I jumped in Teddy’s arms. “Oh my gosh. We are really going to Vegas! I’m so excited! We’re going to have a blast,” I said as I kissed Teddy.
“Oh yes, we’ll have a blast,” Teddy said as he kissed me back.
“Don’t get ANY ideas mister. We’re NOT getting married in Vegas. That’s so…trashy.”
“It is not.”
“To me it is.”
“Okay, fine. We won’t get married in Vegas.”
“Good.”
“I’m going to gamble.”
“No you’re not. You can’t.”
“How come I can’t?”
“Because…I said you’re not!”
“Yes mother.”
“Stop calling me mother!”
“Sorry. I can’t help it.”
“Fine. Let’s just get packing.”
“But I don’t have a lot of clothes.”
“You’ve got enough. And if you need anymore we can buy you some in Vegas. One of us is bound to have enough money to buy you some clothes.”
“Okay,” Teddy said as he zipped up his bag. “Well, my bag is bagged.”
“I haven’t even STARTED mine yet,” I said as I smiled and walked towards my closet.
“You’ll take forever and a day to pack just to annoy me…won’t you?”
“I wasn’t going to, but now that you mention it…”
“No, baby, it’s okay. You don’t have to,” Teddy said as he kissed me on my cheek.
“You think a kiss gets you out of everything, don’t you?”
“It works with you…don’t lie.”
“MOST of the time it works with me,” I said as I smiled at Teddy.
“Thought so…now get in there and pack your bags. We’re going to Vegas!” Teddy said as he slapped me on my butt.
“HEY! Watch where your hands go bud. Besides, Uncle Brad didn’t say exactly when we’d go to Vegas. It could be a few days.”
“Well, the faster you get your bags packed, the faster we’ll get to the airport whenever do leave for Vegas.”
“Alright…fine,” I sighed as I pushed my closet door open.
“I love you.”
“I love you too.”
“And we’re going to Vegas!”
“Yes. And Ted…there’s something I need to tell you,” I said, turning around to face Teddy.
“Oh no…what is it?”
“No, it isn’t anything bad. I just wanted to thank you for being there for me whenever I need you…especially today. If you didn’t love me and didn’t care about me, I don’t know how I’d get through this rough time. And I hope you’ll continue to be there for me as the years go on.”
“You know it,” Teddy said as he kissed me on my forehead.
