*Tom's POV*

Today was Kelly's wedding day. She was getting married to Brett, her boyfriend of two years. I have been Kelly’s best friend for years now and the most cliché thing happened. I fell in love with her. I don’t know how but suddenly one day I realized I loved her and that very same day happened to be the day she met Brett. Maybe it was the fact that she had a boyfriend that wasn’t me that made me realize it, I don’t know, all I know is I lover and will love her forever. But now she’s getting married and It was going to be a difficult sight. She asked me to be there for her. I couldn't say no. But i also could not see her getting married to someone who is not me. So what did I do? I left. I left before the wedding ceremony could start. I went home. I wanted to go back and tell her I love her but I couldn't. After an hour or so my phone started to ring. It was Kelly. What do I tell her? I sighed and threw my phone across the room. I started to cry and fell asleep.

*Few hours later*

I woke up from my very long sleep. Kelly must be married by now. I started to cry more. I heard a knock on the door. I got out of bed and went to open the door. I was shocked. It was Kelly still in her wedding dress and tears in her eyes.

"What happened?" I asked her while hugging her and letting her in.

She sniffed and said, “He called off the wedding because he still loves his ex. They got married. She was his bride on our wedding day. I had to watch the man I love become someone else’s"

She cried into my chest and I stroked her hair to comfort her. I couldn't help but smile internally. Thank god. I knew now was not the time and it could wait boy now I had a chance and I was not going to let it go.

“Kelly,” I said holding her face in my hands and looking into her eyes, “He’s a prick. He doesn’t deserve. He may have never loved you and no one will ever love as much as I do.”

Kelly’s eyes went wide and mouth fell open. She said, “Is that why you left? Because you love me?”

I nodded, “I couldn’t bear to see you getting married to him. It would have been like walking on broken glass. So I left.”

Kelly took my hands in hers and said, “I cannot say I feel the same way, Tom, but I am willing to give it a try. Just give me some time.”

I stroked her cheek and said, “I will wait for you forever.”
