~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Y/n?" I call through the shut door between me and the girl I will forever be head over heels for.

"Dan! Come in!" She replies, her voice a mixture of tones and emotions. I slowly open the door, just enough to allow my body to slide in and as soon as the door is shut I find the most beautiful piece of life in this world.

"Shit... You look gorgeous" I comment, my words leaving my mouth in a breathless manner. She swirls around in the long white dress before replying.

"You think? Thanks Dan" Her smile is small, and it's clear that she is nervous. I was nervous too, but maybe due to different purposes. My heart ached with the knowledge that I was about to watch the girl I love with all my heart marry another man.

She turns around and moves closer to the mirror, here face falling as she closely examines herself. I know what she's doing. She's picking out every little thing she considers a "flaw".. Everything single thing I love. I walk over to her, placing my hand on the small of her back as I stand beside her.

"Stop doing that." as I speak, she lifts a hand, running her finger along her skin as she tries to find more "flaws". I reach up and take hold of her hand, forcing her to face me.

"Stop. You are so beautiful y/n, you have nothing to worry about."

Y/n smiles up to me, reaching her arms around me and holding me close. I hug her in return, loving the feeling of her in my arms, jesus christ... the things this girl does to me. Should I just tell her? Can I? I don't want to ruin her wedding day.. But what if she has feelings to?

"Y/n! It's almost time! We need to make sure every things perfect and- hey! No boys. Out!" Y/n's arms release me as her brides maids enter the room squealing and chattering before telling me to leave. God I don't want to leave.

"I'll see you soon" y/n says quietly before giving me one last quick hug.

"You will. And remember... You always look gorgeous" I say before walking out and closing the door behind me.

I find my seat in the second row, family being in the front. My leg bounces as the wait starts to get to me. Why was I in this position? I had years to tell her how I felt, and I was almost positive she felt the same until he came along. He wasn't right for her though... He didn't remind her how beautiful she is every single day. He never surprised her, he would hardly touch her in public. God.. if she was mine, I would do all I could to prove it to the world. Hold her close and never let go.

I was pulled from my thoughts and he walked to his position in front of the vicar. Where I should be instead of him. Music began to play and all heads turned. The 3 brides maids walked past, holding their bouquets of flowers. Gasps left everyones mouths as y/n came into view. It felt as if my heart had simply stopped.

She stood beside him, a nervous smile on her face. The vicar began speaking but I heard nothing, it was as if my vision had zoomed in on y/n, who was shinning through everyone else. She looked up at him and thats when I noticed it... She didn't have that sparkle in her eyes that she has when her and I are together.

He took her hand in his and that's the point where the tears found their way into my eyes.

"If anyone has a reason for them not to join in holy matrimony, speak now" That was the first time I had heard anything the vicar was saying... also the first time I had spoken since sitting down...

"It should be me"

All heads turn to me, shocked expressions on everyones faces, including some angry ones from family. He drops y/n's hand as they both turn.

"you should be with me..." I say, as if y/n was the only one here.

"I love you..."

Y/n is completely silent the entire time, her eyes move to the ground and flicker as she thinks.

"You're not actually considering it are you? You can't" he says down to y/n with anger in his eyes.

I've messed up.. Oh shit I have ruined what was meant to be the best day of her life. I need to get out of here. For her and for myself.

I stand from my seat and leave. A tear falls as I climb into my car, sitting and resting my hands and forehead on the steering wheel. I try so hard to hold myself together but eventually let go and unattractive sounds of pain and sadness escape my lips and more tears fall.

I jump from surprise as the passenger door opens, but I don't look to see who it is. I honestly expect it to be him, coming to beat me for ruining their day. Or y/n's parents coming to tell me to keep away from her. But the moment the person speaks, my heart is warm and the words being the ones I have wanted to hear for oh so long...

"I love you too"
