narrative
"are there any objections? speak now or forever hold your peace." the priest announces. vinnie wants to speak up but he can see the joy in his ex lover's eyes. he looks down and keeps his mouth shut.
"okay, great. mar, your vows."
_____
"i do." y/n smiles brightly.
"you may now kiss the bride."
mar grabs y/n's waist and passionately kisses his, now, wife. everybody claps except for vinnie. y/n pulls away from the kiss and looks at the crowd, making slight eye contact with vinnie.
she smiles wide making him return a smile. he misses that smile more than anything and now somebody else is making her happy.
_____
everybody's drunk, happy, and talking among themselves at the reception. vinnie keeps looking over at the bride and groom's table.
he sees the way mar makes y/n smile, it's much happier and full of joy compared to how vinnie made her smile.
"you've been staring at her. you're the only one who hasn't congratulated her yet." kio elbows his bestfriend.
"go congratulate her. don't be a dick." he adds on. the blonde boy gets up and walks over to the table.
"congratulations to the both of you." he lies.
y/n looks up at him, "thank you vin." he melts at the old nickname.
"yeah, thanks bro." mar shakes his hand making vinnie try to hold back a stank look.
he turns around and rolls his eyes.
"why the fuck did i come?" he asks himself.
"they're so cute together."
"i've never seen her this happy."
"y/n deserves this."
vinnie overhears their friends.
"i-"
"it's fine. she does deserve this." vinnie cuts them off. he looks over at the open bar in the corner and decides to get a few drinks.
"just vodka please." the bartender hands vinnie a glass and he instantly gulps it down. he looks back at y/n and sees them kissing due to people clinking their glass.
he groans, "give me three more please." he orders the bartender. he complies and gives vinnie the three drinks he asked for.
vinnie drinks all of them under a minute trying to get his mind off y/n. the alcohol consumes his body and he stumbles over to y/n who's talking to the group of friends.
"you good vin?" y/n laughs.
"i'm actually not. how could you do this to me?"
y/n stands their confused. what did she do?
"vin i don't understand? you were just-"
"don't call me vin, we're not dating anymore. how could you marry mar knowing we were suppose to be soulmates. you betrayed me and you had the audacity to invite me to this shitty ass wedding!" his voice getting louder by the second.
"vin-vinnie, i didn't betray you. i only invited you because i thought we were friends. we dated ten years ago, we were eighteen. we're almost thirty and we always kept in contact so i didn't think much of it."
"WE WERE SUPPOSE TO GET MARRIED! HOW COULD YOU." he gets in y/n's face. she backs up and looks at the guests looking at the scene.
"vinnie stop."
"bro this isn't the time."
liya and kio try to calm him down.
"NO! say something y/n!" vinnie objects.
"vinnie i didn't do anything. we've talked and agreed on being friends after our breakup. that's TEN years ago vinnie. let it go. please let me be happy."
"HOW CAN I BE HAPPY WHEN IM MISERABLE. I HATE SEEING YOU WITH MAR!" he yells making y/n flinch.
"come here love. vinnie please relax or i'm gonna have to ask you to leave." mar wraps an arm around his wife's waist pulling her close.
"WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?" vinnie tests the man. now both mar and vinnie are face to face. y/n knows vinnie and mar can both fight.
"stop, just let it go. please let it go babe." y/n gently pushes back her husband.
"so you're taking HIS side?"
"mar- what? no i'm not. i honestly don't want people to fight on our wedding day." she responds.
"it's me or him y/n. are you that oblivious to the fact that he still loves you? for god's sake, he just said you betrayed him and you guys were suppose to be soulmates. i'm serious y/n, make a choice."
the woman looks between her husband and ex boyfriend. she looks over at liya making a "you know who" face. y/n HATES when people make her choose between people.
"SO WHO IS IT?" vinnie grows impatient, the alcohol still not helping.
"mar." she weakly smiles. vinnie frowns and grabs a random cup, throwing it on y/n's wedding dress.
chaos erupts and mar's hand collides with vinnie's face. vinnie doesn't have any momentum due to the alcohol making mar beat the boy up.
"STOP. STOP. IM SERIOUS!" y/n yells as she tries to get mar off a bloody vinnie.
"get the fuck out!" mar yells at vinnie. he stands up looks back at y/n one last time before walking out the building.
"i'm so sorry about that." reggie sincerely apologizes.
"it's fine." y/n shrugs and grabs a few napkins to dry off her dress.
the next morning
vinnie wakes up and groans as his head pounds.
"what the fuck?" he holds his head.
"take it." his brother throws the tylenol bottle along with the water.
"what's with the attitude?"
"maybe because YOU RUINED Y/N'S WEDDING AND HER WEDDING DRESS! YOU GOT IN A FIGHT WITH MAR. get over her, let her be happy." reggie let's lose.
"you're suppose to be my bother." vinnie not getting the main point.
"OH MY FUCKING GOSH! VINNIE, YOU RUINED HER WEDDING DRESS! YOU POURED WINE ON IT. YOU RUINED HER PERFECT DAY. I DONT CARE IF YOU'RE MY BROTHER, Y/N IS LIKE MY LITTLE SISTER AND YOU MADE HER FEEL GUILTY OVER SOMETHING THAT'S YOUR FAULT! IM GONNA CALL YOU OUT ON YOUR SHIT, BROTHER OR NOT!" reggie rants.
"i- i didn't mean to ruin her dress.."
"oh well you did. go talk to her. she's downstairs."
