Brett quietly sat on her couch finishing her fourth glass of her favorite red wine. Sadly, she was all alone tonight. Everyone she knew was a Casey and Naomi's rehearsal dinner. He was actually doing it. He was marrying her. Brett knew she couldn't hold on to him forever, but she sure tried.
"Maybe I should move away." Said Brett out loud to no one in particular as she continued to stare at her off-white walls.
Lots of people called and texted to ask how she was. It was sweet that they were all worried about her and wanted to ask about her, but she really wasn't fine. Lots of her friends told her they wouldn't go and that they would spend the night with her, but she refused; she couldn't let them spend a sad, humiliating night with her when they could be partying with the 'happy' couple.
She excruciatingly remembered the day she got the invitation in the mail. It had really tore her heart out. She remembered walking to the mailbox, reaching in, grabbing the mail, and dropping it all to the floor once she saw the piece of mail that was on top.
Brett was interrupted from her thinking by her phone ringing which caused Brett to laugh out loud when she saw it was Foster calling for the fifth time that night.
"Hi, Foster..." Started Brett.
Give a little time to me, or burn this out
We'll play hide and seek to turn this around
All I want is the taste that your lips allow
Give me love like never before
'Cause lately I've been craving more
And it's been a while, but I still feel the same
Maybe I should let you go
Casey sat there in his black suit just staring at the water glass in front of him. Everyone was coming up to him, congratulating him, and wishing him luck for tomorrow. 'How did I get here? What am I doing?' Thought Casey as he looked around the room and saw everyone he wanted to see except for the one person who wasn't here.
Casey looked around the room until his eyes caught Naomi. She looked beautiful tonight she was wearing her off the shoulder floral white dress with heels that most women wouldn't think about wearing because they were so high.
'She is beautiful. Right? Yeah, she's beautiful, just not as beautiful as Brett. Why isn't Brett here? If she was here I wouldn't be this confused. Right? Gosh, why didn't she come? Maybe it was too weird for her. I mean, yeah I probably wouldn't want to go to my ex's rehearsal dinner or wedding either.' Thought Casey before he took one more look at his half-empty water glass and got up from his seat to make his way over where Naomi was standing.
He had to do this. He had to tell her now or he never would.
"Umm, Naomi, can we talk for a minute." Asked Casey as he interrupted what she was saying to her parents and gently tugged on her elbow.
Naomi looked at Casey and instantly knew something was wrong, "Umm, sure. Excuse us, Mom and Dad, we'll be right back."
You know I'll fight my corner
And that tonight I'll call ya
After my blood is drowning in alcohol
No, I just wanna hold ya
Give a little time to me, or burn this out
We'll play hide and seek to turn this around
All I want is the taste that your lips allow
Ma-my, my-my-y, oh give me love
Give a little time to me, or burn this out
We'll play hide and seek to turn this around
Naomi certainly wasn't prepared for her fiance to come up to her, at their rehearsal dinner, and tell her he was in love with another woman. But she was expecting it. She'd known for a while now that he never really got over her. He never wanted to get over her. She was the one who he dreamed about and called out at night after they'd been together.
"She's the one he wants." Whispered Naomi as she returned to her parents and told them to cancel everything.
'She's the one.'
All I want is the taste that your lips allow
Brett was pouring the last bit of her now empty wine bottle into her wine glass when she heard the banging on her door.
"Who in the world is that?" Asked Brett out loud as she got up off the couch and stumbled to the front door.
The banging continued like someone was about to beat her door down.
"Okay, okay I'm coming, hold your...Casey?" Asked a shocked Brett as she looked at the drenched Matthew Casey in front of her who was now trying to catch his breath.
"Casey, what are you doing here? It's pouring the rain and you're soaked."
Casey didn't say a thing as rain dripped down his face. He just looked at Brett, smiled, and grabbed her by the waist.
"Casey, what are you doing?" Questioned Brett as she was squished next to his soaked form.
Casey took a minute before answering, "I'm loving the girl I should have been with all along."
Brett gasped as Casey slowly leaned his head down and captured her lips in the most romantic kiss ever known to man.
"I love you." Whispered Casey as he finally came up for air.
Brett smiled before pulling him closer, "I love you too!"
Love me, love me
Love me, give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Love me
Give me love
How'd I do? Please let me know, I'm dying to hear what you all think.
