Daniel

I see the sunlight peaking through my window. I just lay there wishing I had a few more minutes of sleep. I look over at the clock and realize that I'm up an hour before my alarm is to go off.

"Just great!" I say as I lay there wishing my dream wasn't over.

I thought once I left Emily behind and came to Germany I would forget her. I thought that I could move on and find someone else to occupy my free time.

I was wrong, she is on my mind more than ever. She is always in my thoughts and dreams. Maybe I still love her, maybe I feel guilty about just leaving her or maybe I'm just confused.

I rollover and to see the other half of my bed is empty. It was empty the first time I went to bed and it's going to be empty the last time I wake up here. I just keep hoping that she comes and tells me that she loves me. I want her to tell me that she wants me.

"Why is it always the guy who has to go the distance for the girl? Why can't the girl make the grand gesture for the guy to notice her?" I say to myself as I wish for in that moment Emily would busting through my door.

I'm laying in my bed when my phone goes off. I ignore it, must be Vivian again calling me.

Goodness gracious great balls of fire, that girl needs to get a reality check. I've told her a million times I don't like her and to leave me alone. She's so desperate that's is sickening.

My phone goes off again. Guess I should answer it.

"Hello?"

"Oh, Danny! I'm so happy to get a hold of you!"

It was my mom. She never could remember the time change. She never could figure out the time difference between countries.

"Hey, mom."

"Danny, what's wrong?"

"I'm just tired. I just woke up." I tell her as I sit up in my bed rubbing my face.

"Oh we'll have you talked to Emily?"

Why would I talk to her? I left her after she gave up on us. She didn't show or even call to say that Collin fell sick again, if that's the reason. She still hasn't contacted me.

"No, mom. Why would I?" I asked her trying to wake up and not let the thoughts of Emily invade my mind.

"Daniel Steven Rhiner! No wonder the poor girl is down in the dumps! She didn't even have fun wedding dress shopping today! When was the last time you spoke to her? How long has it been?" My mom starts to go off and all I could focus on was wedding dress shopping.

My gosh the vision of her in a dress was intoxicating. She would be breathtakingly beautiful, my sunshine would outshine any bride any day. She would wear the color white so well with her natural beauty. I'm starting to drool over the thought of her gorgeous body.

"Wait! Stop!" I think to myself as I try shaking the thoughts of her as my bride, my future wife, and the love of my life out of my mind.

"Mom! Stop its too early! Why is she wedding dress shopping?" I ask her, I can't understand why she is buying one. I figured she would have told them that we called it off.

"Daniel! Have you forgotten that you're getting married this weekend! Have you forgotten that you left your fiancée here to do everything by herself? I swear you're worst than your father when he travels."

So the wedding isn't off?

"No mom, I didn't forget!" I shout at her. I was so mad, first she wants me to fight for her, then she stands me up. Now she's going on with the wedding and making me look like a stupid damn fool!
