Quote of the Day: "What. An. Idiot. I almost feel sorry for Rachel for falling in love with someone so STUPID! I mean, no offense or anything but, wouldn't it be VERY OBVIOUS that Juliana was lying? When was she ever NOT lying. Rachel realized it, he should hurry up and realize it too!! Like the song says, If you just realized, What I just realized, Then, we'd be perfect for each other, And, we'd never find another, The 'you' being Adam, The 'I' being Rachel, And the 'realized' part being that Juliana is a lying, baby stealing, boyfriend tricking, little WHORE!! Excuse my french... Anywhoo, love the story. Post soon. [: Love Ya!<3 ~MeDaNite"

"TAXI! TAXI! GODDAMIT I NEED A FUCKING TAXI!" I shouted at the passing cars.

Although many people turned to stare at me in awe, me, Rachel Anderson, nobody thought to stop and help me.

A preppy looking girl driving a red convertible stopped in front of me. "Do you need a ride?"

I nodded frantically. "Yes, please!"

"Well, get in!"

Patrick and I climbed in. "Thank you so much!"

She grinned. "No problem. It's not every day you not only save a celeb's butt, but have it in your car."

I smiled. "True. Okay, can you please drive me to that little church by Main Street?"

"No problem," she repeated.

It took only five minutes, and as soon as she parked, I gave her a hug, said thank you a million times, and Patrick and I were on our way.

I ran up to the door and burst it open just as the priest said, "Does anybody have any objection as to why these two should not be wed?"

Everyone gasped and turned to look at me. I probably looked like a mess. But I didn't care. I shouted, "I OBJECT, FATHER!"

Whispers were everywhere and Juliana turned to glare at me. "You bitch; you promised you'd stay away!"

"I'm the bitch?" I shouted incredulously, "you got to be kidding me. I'm not the one who faked being sick, dying with leukemia!"

She narrowed her eyes. "I'm not faking!"

I decided to test my acting skills. I didn't have any proof, but if I made her believe I did, so she'd fess up.

"That's not what your doctor said. You know, the same one you and Ricky lured into convincing me my son was dead," I said coldly.

"Mommy, where are we?" Patrick whispered.

"Shh, go stand by Drew," I told him.

Patrick ran to Drew.

I looked back at Juliana. She looked surprised. "He told you?"

I smirked. "He told me everything."

Her eyes got wide. "Damn him. Damn it."

I clicked my tongue. "You're not marrying my man!"

"Like hell I will!" she shouted.

I turned to face Adam. "Adam, you can't marry her! I love you with all of my heart and the only reason I left was because I felt bad. I believed she was dying. But I should be the one marrying you, not her!" I said with tears in my eyes.

He smiled at me.

Adam turned to face Juliana, disbelief written in his eyes. "How could you lie about something like that?" He laughed harshly. "I should have known. You were capable of lying about Patrick. How did I not see this coming?"

"Please, Adam, you've got to understand! I did it because I love you!"

He laughed bitterly. "That is not real love, Juliana."

Juliana gave me a deadly glare. "I hate you, Rachel, you ruined my life!"

"Me?" I shouted incredulously. "Ruined your life my ass!"

I went up there and faced her.

"Father, marry us, now!" Juliana demanded.

He shook his head. "I'm afraid I can't."

Juliana screamed in frustration. She ran out of the church.

I turned to face Adam, and I planted my lips on his own, wrapping my arms around his neck. He got into the kiss and wrapped his arms around my waist.

A chorus of applause rounded.

We pulled away and smiled at each other. I turned to face the crowd. "Does anyone have a white dress?"
