Torn

17.

"We need to talk" he said again in a serious tone

"No you don't" Randy said stepping in between us "There is nothing you need to say to my girlfriend so you need to turn and leave because this isn't the time or place for this" He added getting in his face

"Stay out of this Orton it doesn't concern you" Corey said getting in his face "Wes seriously I need to talk you please" he said grabbing my hand and pulling me toward him

"No Corey" I said trying to yank my hand back but he tighten his grip "Let go of me" I said looking at him

Randy grabbed my other hand trying to pull me toward him "You heard her let go" he said with a seething tone

"No I want to talk to her" Corey said getting in his face

"Will you both stop" I yelled causing people to look at us "Fine I'll talk to you but not here" I said to Corey he nodded his head and walked off down the beach

I turn to Randy who had a disappointed and hurt look on his face "You promised you wouldn't run" was all he said before he turned to walk away

"Randy" I yelled but he shook his head and walked off I knew I should have ran after him but I went in other direction and found Corey down the beach

"What is so freaking important that you had to talk to me right now?" I yelled at him "Huh you have me here so speak" I yelled pushing him

"I'm ending it with Charly" he said "I can't marry her Wes it's you I love it's always been you and I'm so sorry for everything I just want us to be us again" he added

"A fresh start we can fall in love again and get to know each other again learn new things and live the life we always wanted, You know the white picket fence, the kids and the dog named Leroy" he said grabbing my hand and getting down on one knee

Now there was a crowd from the wedding around us I heard a lot of people mutter something "Get up" I said looking down at him

"No, Wes I am laying everything on the line and giving you everything that you asked for, us" he said as he pulled a ring out of his pocket

"Marry me" he said "And let's have that life you wanted for seventeen years, because right down the line it's been you and me and that's the way it was always meant to be" he said

"Corey" I said locking eyes with him and for a second I felt butterflies and my heart speed up

"Marry me" he said again

I pulled my hand back and shook my head "What?" "You can't be serious right now" I added

"I am I want us to have the life you always dreamed about and I know I was being selfish and I am so sorry for that Wes, but I realized now that those are my dreams too, Your my dream" he told me

"So I am asking you right here, right now to marry me and lets have that life together but I know this is a lot at one time so I will let you think about it my room number is 303 so when you're ready to answer me come and find me" he said getting up and walking up the beach toward the hotel

I finally let out the breath I was holding in I turned to meet with the eyes of Seth and Bayley I let my shoulders drop as I walk toward them "I am so sorry about this" I said to them

"Stop it's not your fault" Bayley said "It's that selfish pricks fault" she added giving me a hug "Follow your gut" she said in my ear

"Now let's go back in there and have a good time" Bayley said going back towards the reception

"Ill catch up I just need a sec" I told her

I turned and closed my eyes letting out a sigh and few tears before I felt a tap on my shoulder I turned and locked eyes with Seth

"Don't do it" he said "Don't give in, Wes you deserve a man that wants you to have the world and is willing to give it you without thinking twice" he added

"but I know you, I can see by the look in your eyes that you are torn and don't know how to feel I get it for a long time he was all you ever known and that is so familiar with him and now here he is giving you everything you asked for but I just want you to follow your heart and for the first time ever Wes put your first and go get the man of your dreams go get the man your heart deserves" Seth said before hugging me and pulling me toward the party

After about an hour I decided to leave and takes Seth's advice and go get the man of my dreams I let a smile form on my face as I walked through the lobby towards the elevator pushing the button I have a million thoughts that run through my mind but they keep looping back to the same thing or should I say person because I finally don't feel torn I know exactly what I want and I'm going to get it, I step off at the third floor and take a deep breath and walk towards my destination I stop smooth out my dress wipe my face and knock on the door and wait a minute later the door opens and I lock eyes with the man my heart desires

"Wes" he said with a bright smile
