Love Never Lives

Wedding Day

Dear diary my name is Annabelle Clark, soon to be Annabelle Michael. I never knew I was going to get married to Jesse Michael. Our marriage was arranged, I don't even want to marry him. Did you ever get kissed by someone you didn't even love?! Someday my prince will come.
One hour until my wedding. As I got into my white silk beaded strapless dress, I was thinking about my future. Am I'm going to live in a mansion? Will I have children? Will I pursue my career as a fashion designer? "Annabelle, where are you?" asked my mother.

"Right here mother!" I said.

"Wash your hands and make sure you look perfect!" pleaded my mother.

I thought about my strict childhood. I had gone to an academy for girls, harsh orders as always, "wash your hands, don't get dirty, no running, your dress will rise up!" I had to always act properly. I never had time for a real childhood.

"Annabel are you ready, are you excited, oh Annabel you look darling!" said the bridesmaids.

"Thanks. I don't think I'm ready," I replied.

"Every bride feels like that on their wedding day," said my mother. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, my choices were to run away or act as if I was in love with a man I don't love. As I walk down the aisle I saw my groom smile at me. He said without saying out loud 'you look beautiful.' He's sweet but I don't love him. He tells me he loves me every day. We exchange our vows and we kiss. I can hear everyone awe and cheer. We head outside to talk to everyone before the reception. As I look to see who I know, I see my high school sweetheart. My heart starts to beat faster as I walk towards him...
