I'm kidding! 

O N E 

The worst kinds of dreams are the dreams where you're screaming but no sound comes out and no matter how much you scream all you can feel is your throat closing up, your lungs burning and out of breath.

You feel like you're being choked, or drowned and there's no way out.

Until you finally collapse.

I currently feel like that and all I can think about is when everything goes black and the numbness sets in.

My heart hammers in my chest, my breath short and heavy. I feel nauseous as I stand there scared and wondering, so many pairs of eyes staring at me in shock.

Including Nathan's and Danielle's at the alter.

I scan the room my eyes frantically looking for a sign that reassures me I'm not too late. But the hall is so large and I have no idea what I'm looking for.

I clear my throat and ignore the bile rising in my throat "I object to this wedding" I finally speak. Everyone in the room looks at me like I'm crazy and honestly I would too.

I think I'm going to throw up.

Not now Anastaisa.

A girl with mascara smudged under her eyes in clothes that aren't appropriate for a wedding and her hair thrown into a top knot, I gather I don't look my best but some of the stares are extra judgemental.

"Pardon?" The priest says into the mic.

"I object to this wedding," I repeat, stepping into the hall and walking up to the front. Mike stands beside Nathan with wide eyes but i can tell by the slight curve of his lip he's trying really hard not to smile.

"Anna, darling what are you doing?" Nathan's mother whispers, I turn to my right to smile at her "I'm sorry Mrs O'Connor but this is something I have to do".

I turn back to Nathan and Danielle and look at their hands, I let out a breath of relief when I see the rings still in their palms.

"What is this nonsense? Father, please carry on this woman is clearly delusional" Danielle demands, giving me a disgusted once over.

The priest holds a hand up, he looks down at me "why?" I look down at the file in my hand and read over the words again.

"This is the medical file of Danielle Aldridge, it states here that she did a blood and urine test 2 months ago and the tests showed she is pregnant," I say out loud.

The priest looks between the betrothed couple, a little disappointed.

"Anna, what are you doing?" Nathan whispers. I shake my head "just listen." I mumble.

"She did a DNA test with Donovan Richards and the test shows that this child is in fact not Nathaniel's," I say, looking up at her with a smug smile.

"She's been cheating on you since October of last year, or maybe longer I'm not entirely sure, Danielle?" I turn to her, she bares her teeth at me, I look at Nathan and his face falls, staring at her in disbelief.

The priest looks at Danielle "is this true?" He speaks, bewildered. Danielle laughs nervously "Father she has no idea what she's talking about" I scoff.

"I have screenshots of emails, pictures and voice recordings of you and Donovan together. It's over Danielle, cut the crap" I glare at her.

Nathan drops her hand "are you kidding me? I did so much for you, I let go of the love of my life for you because you promised you wouldn't run me into bankruptcy and this is how you treat me?" Nathan says flatly.
