Sawyer wrapped her arms around her new husband’s waist, laced her hands together, and pulled him closer. Her wedding had exceeded her expectations. She peeked around her husband and took in the room, three hundred of their loved ones filled the area. The hotel’s bland ballroom had been transformed into a white and gold wonderland. This is such a Barbie wedding, Sawyer thought giddily. The whole room looked like a fluffy creamy confection. She saw Marsha standing on the perimeter of the reception clutching her clipboard to her chest. It looked like she was at the starting line and poised to sprint away at the sound of the starting gun. Marsha stressed Sawyer out more than necessary, but Sawyer was very happy with the results Marsha had achieved. Even though she knew that Marsha couldn’t see her, Sawyer smiled at her, a slow grateful smile. It was already past one o’clock in the morning and the reception showed no sign of slowing down.

“So are you happy Mrs. Spector?” Walt asked.

Sawyer grinned up at him. “Yes, I am Mr. Spector, I’m ecstatic.” And she was. Walt was the man of her dreams. Walt was her Ken. She knew he was The One the first time they’d met. Their meeting was like a ghetto fairy tale. Sawyer, Campbell and a bunch of their friends had gone to Happy Hour at a popular club. The evening had started off fun. A radio personality from the city’s number one hip hop station was in the club playing music. After a couple of hours the club was packed. But even with the number of people, Sawyer couldn’t miss Walt. He was in a group of giants, they were all easily over six feet and they all looked like they had healthy appetites. She later learned that they were his brothers and his cousins; they were getting an early start on his brother’s bachelor party.

She had walked by him at least ten times before he stopped her and asked her for her name. He later admitted to her that he had seen her the first time she had strolled by, but he had been too intimidated to talk to her.

They were squeezed into a corner talking, when someone fired a gun and that created pandemonium. Without any hesitation, he had picked her up and she had pressed her face to his chest as he barreled his way through the chaos and out to safety. He never made it to his brother’s bachelor party, he drove her to a coffee shop where they talked until it closed, then he followed her to her house, where they sat outside in his car until dawn. She knew by then that she wanted to marry him. He had asked her out for breakfast and they’d been together since.
