Broken arrows

34.

"Oh fuck it" I said as I stood up again.

Who cared if I made a fool out of myself. I could always get another job and never show my face again, but I wasn't gonna find another love like this.

"You wanna say something?" The pastor asked.

"I do actually" I nodded and cleared my throat. I didn't prepare this.

I should've prepared this.

I looked at everyone, it was making me even more nervous so I looked at the one guy that mattered. The only guy that mattered.

"I am sorry for crashing this wedding but Lando, you're not the type of guy to marry the wrong girl" I could hear Lara chuckle a little and grabbed his hands.

"But you saved me so many times, probably without even realizing. It's only fair I save you."

"Can someone remove her? She wasn't even invited" Lara screamed at whoever wanted to do something about me.

"She's my plus one, so let her speak" Max Fewtrell said as he looked at her and back at me, gesturing me to continue.

He was a good friend, he wanted the best for Lando and he seemed to think I was the best.

"I love you Lando, I am in love with you. I don't wanna wake up with anyone else next to me, I wanna cuddle up in your arms every single night.
You made me the happiest, you made me laugh so damn hard and you make my heart smile"

Lando's gaze never left mine and he was softening up because he took his hands back and took a step back from Lara.

"I lied when I said I wished for 1000 euros. I obviously lied and you knew that because you always see right through me.
Since you left, it's always been a falling star and I'm always wishing for the same thing." I said referring to my tattoo. Only he knew what I was talking about.

"Which is you. I don't need anything else when I'm with you"

A smile curled on his lips.

"So please Lando, run away. If it's not for me, then do it for yourself" I said as I walked to the aisle.

I could've mentioned the fact that she lied about her pregnancy and miscarriage but I decided not to do that.
This wasn't about her, this was about Lando and I. About us.

I was standing there, by myself, looking at Lando. He was still looking at me but quickly turned to Lara.

He didn't say anything, didn't do anything. He just looked at Lara.

Fuck I made a fool out of myself.

"I am so sorry" I heard him say but it wasn't me who he was sorry for, it was Lara.

He ran up to me and grabbed my hand, pulling me with him.

I was running outside the venue with him. I did it, I may have ruined Lara's day but I didn't care.

"Fucking hell, you're crazy" he said as we were standing outside the venue. "You're so fucking crazy"

He grabbed my face and pressed his lips against mine. I didn't even notice it was pouring rain until we stopped kissing.

"I love you" he mumbled on my lips. His thumbs were stroking my cheeks. "Let's get out of here"

And that's exactly what we did. We drove off in his Mclaren, back to his apartment.
It's been a while since I've been there but it still looked the same, it still felt the same.

Like home.

"I am so sorry Aimée, I don-" he started but I shook my head. I didn't want his apologies.
He ran away from his own wedding, with his team, his friends and family sitting there.

We showed our love for each other right then and there.

We both sat down on the couch. He was loosening his tie as he looked at me. "You've some big balls"

Little did he know I was actually shitting my pants.

"Thank you for saving me though" he said as he pulled me in his arms. I cuddled up in them, my favorite place in this world.

"Even Superman sometimes needed Superwoman" I chuckled and so did he.
He still remembered the time he said that to me.

Little did he know that by saving him, I saved myself too.
