I think dreams do come true. Well mine's coming true right now. I just can't stop staring at myself because this dress is just pure beautiful. It's a long blue ball gown dress that drags on the floor. I loved it and I'm sure my groom, Jason, is going to love it too. My long, curly black hair and tanned skin complements my dress entirely and my long, white double necklace and 9 inch high white - no, silver - stiletto heels make me look bold. My bouquet is a mixture of red and blue roses tied together with a silver ribbon.
"Jaimie. It's time." My dad knocks on the door
As I step out, he sighs in wonder once he sees me.
"You look great!" My father smiles with pride.
"So do you papi." I grin. He's wearing a simple tuxedo but it sits on him nicely.
My father takes my hand and we walk into the church. All the guests start getting up. 1000 guests all flown in from their different countries. This is the biggest wedding in town and I'm proud to be the bride.
Finally, we reach the altar and (obviously) Jason. Damn, he's hot. His blonde hair is freshly cut ( in favor of the wedding ) and his ripping muscles show through his shirt making me drool.
"We are gathered here today... " the priest says his speech then the part I've been waiting for finally comes.
"Do you, Jaimie Anabella Lopez, take this man as your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do." Just put the ring on and get on with it!
"Do you, Jason Marcus Blackwood, take this woman as your lawfully wedded wife?"
Jason hesitates, sighs then said "yes." No I do - Just yes.
"Now the vows."
"Everything all right?" I ask him - I definitely heard the sigh.
"Sorry. I can't." He whispers to me then turns to face the audience
"Can't what?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry but you wasted your time coming here." Then he looks at me. "Jaimie, you're a great girl, you're funny, super cool and absolutely gorgeous! But what you want is a Prince Charming to swoop you of your feet and I can't be that guy. I already found my princess, and it's not you."
I'm on the brink of tears but I say, "who is it?"
"Joanna." My sister runs into his arms and kisses him. "And she's pregnant."
I can't take it anymore. I run out of the church crying. I run to my dressing room and tear of my dress. My best friend, Mia, runs into the room after me and starts to pat me on the back as I cry. I don't talk. She doesn't talk but telepathic words pass through us and she starts drawing circles on my back.
"I don't know what to do." I sob pathetically and at this moment I notice something.
I, Jaimie Lopez who always knew what to do, didn't know what to do.
"Sorry Jaimie, I tried my best but the after party is still on. Your mother insists." My other best friend , Anastasia, barges into the room and stands next to Mia.
My mothers a huge bitch!
"I got it! " Mia suddenly yells.
"What?" I clean my tears and feel a spark of hope.
"Shape up darling 'cause you are going to that after party!"
"Suze I think that's a bad idea." Anastasia warns.
"No it's perfect." Mia's eyes start shining. "You need to show them that you don't give a shit about them, Jaimie."
"I can't." I sob.
"Yes you can. " Mia says. "Don't worry. You're now wearing this dress. I got something else in mind."
In 5 minutes, I'm wearing the shortest white dress ever. It has a bow at the back and I'm wearing hot red lipstick and white eyeshadow (IKR). We walk into the room as if we own the world and I'm met with the smiling faces of my beautiful sis and wonderful ex-fiancé. They are chatting with the guests as if it's they're wedding. My sister sees me and runs up to me.
"Aren't you happy?!" She squeals. Yes. I'm happy. I'm happy that you stole my husband and ruined my wedding. I'm happy that I'm single again. I'm happy that my life is ruined and I have no happiness. Dumb blonde. Dumb Dumb blonde.
"I'm happy. " I say sourly.
My mother rushes over to us, probably thinking that I'm abusing Joanna. Physically.
"Jaimie!" She says with fake happiness.
"Mother." I return the fake happiness to her. "You kept on the after party."
"Well y-yes. " she stammers.
"My weddings practically ruined anyway."
"Well the good news is, your sister found someone!"
"And the bad news is that it was my soon to be husband."
"Don't act spoilt Jaimie, learn to share." She suddenly snaps
"Share? Oh she's not sharing mother. She's taking."
"Oh please. You'll find someone else."
"Mmm. In two years. Which is how long it took me too find Jason."
"I am not having this conversation with you." She briskly walks away.
"Where is my chika?" I hear a loud booming voice shout.
"Papi!" I yell and he envelops me into a bear hug.
I breathe in the scent of his body and calm immediately as he starts muttering 'I'm so sorry' in my ear. I flash my sister a smug look and she shoots me an angry one. All the guests start talking pretending everything is normal. They have guts.
"Are you alright? I've been looking for you everywhere!" My father cries.
"It's okay Papi. I'm alright now." I clean his tears with my hands.
"So brave. So brave. Your mother did a wicked thing." He says with disgust that scares me.
"Papi, keeping the after party on isn't that bad." I half-heartlessly laugh.
"Oh, you don't know." He says then pulls me roughly. "Come."
He takes me to the room where my wedding cake is and sits me down.
Then he starts to reveal the truth.
