My Soon To Belover

chapter 4

(2months later)

Today, was the day my older brother was getting married i couldn't stop smiling, I got ready, I put on a black and white dress with black high heels and my bracelet, my sister had on a beautiful all white dress with sparkles on the top part from her chest to her stomach, she had on earrings and a bracelets with red bottom high heels from my closet. Me and her had to get up early so we can see if everything was set up right and had to see if the chefs were there, then we had to head to church to see if the names were place where everyone was suppose to sit. I went to go check on cleo, she was getting her makeup down and her hair brushed out, i told her that she looked amazing then i had to run back to go check on the bridesmaids to see if they were all getting ready and was the flower girls ready to go when it was time with their pretty periwinkle dresses .

I was a busy person today, I then had to go check on the best man and the groom, i had to help my brother comb his hair out and called a man in to shine his shoes, i started to walk out when he stop me and told me” thanks for doing this for me” he said smiling

“your welcome, you are my brother”.

It was 6:00 and i ran to see if everyone was arriving and by the minute Cleo family and friends were showing, looking amazing her mother wore a beautiful silver dress with butterflies flowing through the entire bottom, They all went into the church to sit down and wait, then our family started to come my aunt and her husband and their two kids, “this is a big church”, my aunt said smiling and laughed, my best friends and his friends from high school came, i looked and that's when i saw somebody i didn’t want to see come here and was not invited, his ex-girlfriend from high school to college.

“What are you doing here” i screamed, she walked past me and said “I came with Chris, haha, he didn’t tell you, bummer”

“no, Chris didn’t tell me”, I looked at him, pinching him on the shoulder, “someone is mad”, i just wanted to pull that nasty as fake braids out of her head and step on her face but it was a good day so i let it pass.

Everyone was seated and the wedding was beginning, my brother stood up there with joey, Liam, and tony as his best men, a tear fall from my sister eye, so i pass some tissues to her, then everyone stood up and cleo and her dad walked down together, the dress was amazing in the lighting, everybody had their mouths opened from amazement asher dad kiss her forehead and told my brother “be good to her”. He walked away and everyone sat down, i got a call on my phone so i had to run out but i told the pastor to keep going. I answered my phone and a man answered and told me something that ruined my day “hey, is this Jessica”, i told him yes and he kept talking,” i see your brother is getting married today, to a close friend of mine, you might not remember me but i use to go to school with you and your brother and i remember him very well, since he was on the football team, you might not know this but him and his buddies that’s in the church now use to bully me and i would tell them to stop but they wouldn’t listen”, i asked him “what was he planning on doing and all he said “ you’ll see and don’t try to stop me either”, i got scared and he text me telling me “give me nine-thousand dollars and your brother and his friends will survive if you don't, this the last time you will see him”, i walked back inside and looked around but i didn’t see nobody, they had finish their vows and kissed and they started to walk out, they started walking to the car and everyone ran out so happy and excited. We made it to the bridal party and everyone was eating, drinking, talking and dancing, security called me over and they were holding a man and i told them to take him out of here then he said “ i have a massage for you”, i asked “what's the massage”

“where’s the money” he said,

“sorry i don’t have the money but come back next time’ rolling my eyes and walking away then he screamed “that was a very stupid move”, i watched as they threw him out and i saw him pull out a phone, then i heard three gunshots me and the two security guards ran to see but the other two stayed behind, i was running and saw my brother laying on the ground bleeding from his stomach , saw my sister and aunt crying, i yelled called the police and ambulance, the other gunshot hit the ice sculpture and the other bullet hit Chris in the leg, i was praying that it hit my brother bitchy ex in the head, Cleo looked up and saw a man running” Jessica look that man” joey started to run after him, i had to take my heels off and ran after him, i didn’t know what i was thinking but i turned around and saw the police coming and they arrested the man who was laying on the ground outside the party, i was still running after them both and one of joey brother running after both of us, the man run into a barn and tried to hide, but joey grabbed and dragged him to the police and they took him in for question, the police  picked up the gun for evidence and the man had to be stupid because he didn’t have on gloves.

Me and my sister drove to the hospital fast as hell, we didn’t stop and i almost cause a accident but didn’t, thank god. we arrived at the hospital and i parked my car in the front and we run in with the doctors they started to ask question, “how did this happen” he asked, “we was at his wedding and a man shot him and one of his friends”, they rushed him into a room holding me and my sister back, my aunt and joey came in. i told myself that i had to tell them that i knew something like this was going to happen and this is my fault but it was a very bad time, but i told them anyway. “joey, sis, aunt, i have to tell you something “this is all my fault” my aunt stop me and told me “no it is not, just some idiot who didn’t know what he was doing and now he is in jail for the rest of his life”, no, that man called me when i was in the church and told me that we all use to go to school together and max and his friends use to bully him, he said if i didn’t give him nine-thousands dollars he was going to kill them but i didn’t believe him, i thought it was some kind of prank or something but i was scared and, my sister interrupted me and said

“how dumb could you be, if somebody say they knew you since high school and is going to kill you why the fuck would you think that's a prank” she said angrily, our aunt told her to stop and she stormed off, her eyes tearing up, she turned around and said

“I’m glad you thought it was a prank cause now are brother is going to died because of it, my aunt stormed after her and me and joey sat down and waited, two hours later the doctor came out and said “he will be ok and he will survive, he lost a lot of blood but he will be ok”. I gave the doctor a hug and said thank you.

we slept at the hospital that night, the nurse woke us up and told us that he could see visitors and then she told that they was keeping him for the next three days, we walked in and saw him lying there and then he said hello, we was surprise but Jordan run in and hugged him, she was more excited to see him then he was to see us. I didn’t want to tell him that him almost dying was my fault, so i just looked at him and smiled, i thought to myself that this been the worst year of my life, even though i was getting married and i had the best birthday ever, it didn’t compare to all the bad things that happened.
