1001 Love Stories Darker

Objection(51)

How did I end up here?

Objecting at my own best friends wedding.

Oh god Its not like in movies where you say I object, people gasp, and you get to spill your heart.

Nope.

The preacher said 'does anyone object' and I rose my hand like an idiot.

No everyone's starring at me and I want to melt into a pile of seafoam.

I can't will myself to look up at the hundred or so pairs of eyes.

"Ryan?" Dennis says and I just sigh.

"Sorry dude. I just can't watch you get married." I say in a calm and chill tone even though my insides were on fire.

Now for the walk of shame.

Oh god from the front to the door felt like years and it maybe was but the moment I got to the door I melted starting to laugh, then cry.

What the he'll was I doing?

"Ryan!" I knew that voice.

It was I Guy and the moment I turn around to face him I break down even more before hugging him.

What was I doing?

Of course Guy would follow me. Of course we'd be the ones to leave.

Guy only took my hand in mine. His small maybe 5'4 frame pulling me, who was a whole foot taller, and I follow as I cry.

I wasn't a cryer but my actions today were completely out of wack.

I had interrupted my best friends wedding and the moment I realize I still had the rings I grab Guy picking him up bridal style and book it.

He clug to me as I ran and even tbrough all of this I felt happy as we made it to my car and began to speed down the street.

It wasn't until we were half way down the main road did I show guy the rings and he chuckles before punching me in the arm.

A little back story.

I'm actually not in love with my best friend.

I can see where the confusion comes in at. Objecting at his wedding then braking out in tears before stealing his rings and now currently hiding in a motel with my phone off.

No, actually Guy is. In love with Dennis that is.

And I am in love with Guy.

So why did I object the wedding of the one guy who was standing between me and happiness?

Well when I find out I'll let you know.

"Ryan what the he'll were you doing?" Guy shouts while sitting next to me on the bed.

"Oh good question Guy. Phenomenal question. When I find out the answer I'll be sure to tell you!" I say bitterly and he chuckles.

"He's gonna hate us now." He says and grab a pillow bringing it to my face and groaning into it.

"I don't get the things that go through your head." He says and I turn to him.

"That makes two of us." I groan and he rolls me over until I'm on my bad looking at the roof.

"If you did it for me you're stupider then I thought. He is your only real competition." He says and I sigh.

"Don't you think I've realized it. Apparently I put your happiness over my own like some kind of simp." I say and he laughs again.
