i gulp when i check jacobs phone, we are 10 minutes away from the church. anxiety starts pumping through me and i feel like i could pass out in any secondi'm really about to go stop him from marrying her. what if he tells me it's too late
jacob squeezes my hand, "i'm nervous for you"
i look at him, "jacob i'm so scared"
"just find him before it starts"
"i have a feeling it already did, it's 8 now" i look at my phone, "they started 2 hours ago"
"okay if they did start then just walk in there and ruin it"
"jacob-"
"you're a bad bitch remember!" he tries to make me feel better
"but this is different"
i see the church ahead and my heart starts racing even more. jacob pulls into the parking lot and parks the car, thankful that there is parking
we get out the car and he walks over to me and holds my hand, "you got this"
i shake my head, "no i don't jacob"
"kels. you can't back out now. you'll regret this forever" he says
i nod slowly and we start to walk towards the entrance. i stop before he opens the door, i peak through and see everyone is sitting down already
"jacob" i turn towards him, "it already started"
"okay kels. you have to walk through there and end it" jacob calmly says
"what? are you kidding!" i shout a little too loud
"kels, go"
"no" my eyes widen
"fine then" he opens the door, he walks in and i glance at the inside before the door closes
im late
joey and emily are holding hands, the preacher looks down at his book and i hear him say, "emily, do you take joey to be your wedded husband? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor him and keep him in sickness-"
the door closes in my face and i cover my mouth, don't cry. it'll ruin your make up
i have no time now but to just walk in there and face it. he's marrying her and there is nothing i can do now
i take a deep breath and grab the door knob and hesitate to open it, but i do and i walk inside
all eyes go on me when i open the door, i did just interrupt the most important part of the wedding
i hear some gasps and see some angry faces but i stand straight and look at what's in front of me
emily's eyes are on joey and joeys eyes are on me, his mouth is lightly parted when he looks at me
after the what felt like the longest 30 seconds everyone's eyes go back to joey and emily
"i do" emily smiles, he baby bump is getting so much bigger and i really just wish joey believed me
i walk a little more inside and look around for jacob, i find him sitting towards the back so i quickly make my way towards him
i try and sit down next to him but he pushes me from sitting, "no"
"why?" i frown
"kels" he looks in my eyes, "just do it okay"
"jacob" i bite my bottom lip
