When you have a massive crush on your best friend but he is getting married to someone you hate.
"You should tell him! He is going to get married for gods sake!" Gemma exclaims. I sigh and reply "That's why I can't tell him Gemma. He is going to get married to her. She got him, like she wanted." I feel that my eyes tear up. I excuse myself and grab some water to calm me down. While I grab the water I bump into a hard chest. I look up and smile.
"Hi Harry" I say. "Hi Liv, Gemma told me you left her alone" He smirks. I pout, "Are you sticking up for me or for your sister?" The sneaky grin on his face tells me he did it on purpose. I laugh and grab a new cup of water. "Three days until you tie the knot H. You excited?" His eyes lit up by the mention of his wedding. He goes on about his wedding and the dissapoited feeling in my stomach is something I can't deny.
"Olivia?" I turn around and see the fiancée. Let me introduce me to her. Lois Lane, the most perfect human being in the eyes of Harry. She is a witch, let me tell you that. She was my high school bully, always trying to tear me and Harry apart. Harry doesn't know it is his fiancée that nearly costed me my life 3 times. But when she met Harry, it was like she was my bestest of friends. I truly despise her, not only because she has the man I've fallen in love with.
"Can I help you with something Lois?" I reply with the most fake smile. "I don't know if Harry told you but I told him that I don't want you to be here on my wedding" I scoff. "He didn't but it's fine. I won't attend your wedding" I turn around and let my tears fall.
I run back to Gemma and let it all out. "She told you to stay away from your best friend wedding?" She exclaims with surprise. I nod and just cry again. "Gem, have you seen Liv? I can't find her." Harry asks trough the door. "Yes I've seen here. She's here" she replies and the door opens. "Livie? O Liv, why are you crying?"
I scoff again and dry my tears. "I'm crying because your o so lovely fiancée just told me she doesn't want me at your wedding and you freaking agreed to that shit. I can't stand her anymore. I've done everything for both of you. I even protected her in the past so you didn't ruin her life. She got everything she wanted. She completed it. She finally did it. She separated the two of us." I spilled almost everything.
"What do you mean 'you're not coming'?" I chuckle at his stupidness. " I am not going to see you getting married to her" I say with pauses. "But I want you there" he says. "Harry, your fiancée and I do not get allong. She doesn't want me there and frankly, I don't want to be there anymore. I've been hurt by the most important person in your life way to many times." He furrows his brows. "You mean Lois hurt you? How?" I shake my head. "You'll never believe me anyway. If you want to know ask her. Altough I already know she is going to deny everything. But let me tell you. Because her I almost lost my life 3 times." With that I turn back to Gemma and she nods.
"Liv! Stop!" Harry yells. I stay still and roll my eyes. Just when he got close my phone rings. I shush him and answer my phone. "Hello, Olivia Jackson? I'm calling you to say you got the job. Can you come here as soon as possiblee?" I think about it and since I won't go to the wedding I have nothing left here. "I can come in three days?" My reply back is almost before I say my answer. "Yes thank you. We'll see you soon." They hang up the up the phone.
"Gemma!! I got the phone call. They accepted me!" I scream at Gemma. She squeels with me ad we jump around in excitment. "I'm leaving this hell Gem, I can move on finally" She calms down and hugs me. Gemma is a hugger. "When?" Then my smile turns into a frown. "3 days" I mutter. "Then we better make the most of it. Am I right?" I nod and smile.
"Oliva, I hear you told Harry about me" the witch says. "I turn around ans stop myself before I hit her. "So?" "You wanted to tear us apart because you can't stand me. You can't stand the fact that I have the man you want." I nod. "You're right. I can't stand you. But not because you have Harry. Harry isn't some kind of object you own. He doens't belong to anyone. I won't be there, like you asked." I want to turn around when I realise I need to get more of my chest.
"Lois, as much as I despise you, I want to congratulate you with the wedding. You accomplished your dream but you don't deserve him in any way. I'm not saying I do because I don't. He is to good for this world. I hope he never finds out what you did for your sake. And I hope you treat like he deserves to be treated. Because as much as it hurts me to say. I can't do that. I'm not the one he wants so come home every night. Love him like no other." Now I turn around with tears streaming down my face.
Skip to the wedding day :)
I'm standing in the chapel, before it gets busy with people. With my suitcases I take a last glance. I turn around when I see Lois. "I'm leaving don't worry" I snap at her. "Don't go. I want you here. I've been a bitch to you for like all the time. You're right. We both don't deserve him, but he deserves you. He deserves someone that can love him like no other. That's not me." The tears stream down both our faces. I open my arms for a hug and she hesitantly hugs me. "I was honourd to love him. But I could see he doesn't love me like he loves you." She says. "You should go see him and tell him everything that has happened because of me." I nod but take her hand and explain all of it to Harry, with Lois.
As you can guess, it all workeed out for both of us in the end. Lois really found her love with her long lost best friend. I have my best friend, who I can call my husband. We have a cute little baby on the way.
