Camila POV

It's Cold, wet , lonely, everyday felt the same. Like a storm that never will end. Its like I had my world in my hands but now, I seem to have lost it. Only left with tears and pain. I had him, me and him, we were one, me and him where together, me and him where like a dream come true. All seems like a dream, because I have lost him because of my stupid mistake, I have lost the most amazing man, all because of a stupid mistake.

Ava: (comes running to Camila) Camila what are you doing here?

Camila: (wipes her tears quickly) sorry Ava, I just don't feel well, it was getting stuffy inside, so I came here for fresh air. (sighs)

Ava: (sees Camila has been crying so she goes up to her and hugs her)

Camila: (hugs back)

Ava: (pulls away after a minute) I know honey you are hurting, and you don't need to hide your tears from me. (sighs) Mason is getting married tomorrow but...

Camila: (heartbreaks) but what? (gets frustrated) it's too late, I should move on?

Ava : (gets frustrated) Yes!, he can't be yours any more, Camila and wasting your tears on him its no use, you are just going to cause more pain to yourself. So please sweetheart (holds Camila's face in her palms) stop hurting yourself seeing you in pain is causing your family in pain too.

Camila: (hugs Ava and cries) but Ava I really love him, if only I didn't fall into Sofia's trap. (pulls away) You know it wasn't my fault, she sent Taylor to kiss me and Mason saw and now I have lost him (cries even more) he means the world to me

Ava: I know sweetheart (reassures her best friend) I believe you.

Camila: but he doesn't and maybe its too late. But Sofia has won (looks up at the sky trying pus her emotion down) may be what they say it is right

Ava: (concern) What dear?

Camila: the love only exists in fairy tales; this world is really a cruel place. Everyone I love just leaves (sniffs)

Ava: (sad for her best friend)

(in a distance someone overhears everything that Camila and Ava talk about and feels guilty)

--Next Day with the Groom—

Masons POV

This is it, these are my final moments of being a single, from this day forward I would be pounced to be a married man, with lots of responsibility and taking care of myself and my wife Sofia Tristin. The clock is ticking, but my mind is running a roller-coaster ride. Am I doing the right thing? Do I really love Sofia? Or I am trying to fill the hole in my heart that someone else left!

Simon: (open the room's door interrupting Mason's thoughts) Mas are you ready?

Mason: (re-collects all his thoughts) Yes, I am ready (turns around so he is facing Simon and walks out the door)

--At the Church—

Masons POV

There I was standing there, waiting for my bride to walk down the aisle and stand beside me and spend the rest of her life with me. But my eyes couldn't help but look for those familiar eyes which I shared true love with once. This feels so unreal, so wrong but I can't forget the betrayal. Was I not enough? Loving someone beyond anything is a big gift, that nearly everyone would die for, but why do people get the love and abuse the love, throw it away like it's a game or throw it away like its dirt. I look away because this pain is going bring the end of me, but soon the music started playing and there she was my bride walking down the aisle, I clear my head, I need to focus and fix myself for Sofia and our future.

(Camila sitting beside Ava in the audience watching as her heart sinks)

Camila POV

And there he is, the love of my life. Who I am going to lose for the rest of my life. God, I wish I could turn back time and fix everything that went wrong. The only reason I am at this wedding because Ava is engaged to Mason's brother Simon, otherwise I am pretty sure that mason never wanted to see my face again. Look at him, he is everything I ever wanted, he looks at me for split second. Gosh it hurts, love hurts, maybe that's why people are so afraid of it and do silly things that beyond there control. But love shouldn't be taken for granted because you may have it but in split second you can lose everything. Like I have lost my everything, my whole world (looks down)

(Sofia walks up the aisle and then stands in front of Mason)

(the priest starts reciting the vowels)

Priest: Do you Mason Val, take Sofia Tristin to be your lawfully wedded wife to have and hold for sickness and health, for richer and poorer say I do...

Mason: (holds his breath and then lets out a sigh) I do...

(Camila hears the I do from Mason's mouth and can't hear any more. She gets up and rushes out of the church's side door)

Priest: Do you Sofia Tristin, take Mason Val to be your lawfully wedded husband to have and hold for sickness and health, for richer and poorer say I do...

Sofia: (looks at Mason and sees this is not right and feels guilty she then looks at the guest who is attending the wedding, letting out a sigh she says) No, no I don't...
