Run away bride

~1~

*The knight of the annual Halloween ball*

Vivian's POV ~

I can't believe it.
Siobhan is going to be getting married tonight and I can't do anything about it.
I hate Roger,he's so controlling over Siobhan and I can easily tell how much he has brought her down these past few months.
Also,Everyday she comes into work she wears the same thing,A long sleeve black bodysuit.
This has never normally brung concern to me but after finding out how Roger treats her it's made me concerned on why she always covers up.
I'm guessing it's something to do with Roger not wanting any other men looking at Siobhan the way he looks at her.
In my opinion she should be aloud to dress how she wants.
Everything hurts,my heart hurts for Siobhan.
She's going through all of this alone and the only person who has noticed is me.

I pause my thoughts as I hear someone approaching behind me.
I quickly turn around as I feel a light tap on my shoulder.
"Marjorie what's wrong...what the hell are you wearing?"
She laughs as she swirls her black frilly dress around in the air.
"It's my costume for the ball!...what do you think?"
"It's certainly something but why are you here aren't you mean to be at the Halloween ball"
"I am but I need to tell you something,but promise you'll stay calm"
I look at her intriguingly as she looks at the ground.
"Marjorie just tell me,what is going on"
"So basically the wedding is in 10 minutes and Siobhan is nowhere to be seen..."
"What do you mean she's nowhere to be seen where is Siobhan Marjorie?!"
"I don't know..."
I quickly turn around and run to my car.
Marjorie gets in the passenger seat and I raise an eyebrow at her.
She looks at me pleadingly and I roll my eyes before starting the car.
"I love being involved with all this drama,do you think Siobhan had a meltdown and-"
"Enough!"
She looks at her lap and plays with the material on her dress.
"Someone's cranky"
"Well my girlfriend-.... Friend has gone missing!..."
"It's okay we'll find find her Vivian"

Siobhan's POV ~

A single tear falls from my cheek as I realise I'm stuck.
Stuck in a relationship I don't want to be in.
Everything feels numb,it feels like my airway is slowly closing up day by day.
A few years ago I was a happy woman.
I had all the money I could want,all the friends I could ever need,and most of all,I had a man that loved me.
The same man who I can barely recognise now.
Ever since we started dating he was changing. He would get mad at me for the simplest things and would always humiliate me in front of his friends for fun.
But none of those things top what I go through everyday.
The abuse is the main source of why I am in what is called a "toxic relationship"
He often comes home every night drunk and angry.
I don't want to get into detail about all the other stuff I experience daily,because it hurts to think about.
I miss the old me,happy and confident and most of all free.
I approach the building where the Halloween ball will be hosted shortly.
I stare at the alter knowing I will be there in only a few minutes from now.
As I enter the changing room I see a familiar brunette figure waiting by the door.
"Viv?"
"Hey Bon bon"
"But why are here,your not meant to be here,you can't let Roger see us,he will-"
"He will what Siobhan?"
"Forget it just please leave"
"No I'm not leaving until I know that your safe"
"Vivian,he will find his way back to me even if you do manage to get me out of here,he always does,plus he will just get more mad at me than her already is."
I feel my heart sink to the floor knowing the girl of my dreams will never be mine.
I love her and I would do anything to make her mine,but I know theres nothing I can do this time,she's trapped with no way out.
