(PRESENT TIME)
"Jade everyone is ready"
"Jade??...Cmon! They're all waiting for you!"
"Ugh..I'll go get Petra"
"No..Don't. Just give me a few more minutes please..That's all I need.."
"But Jade-"
"Please Britney..I need a couple simple minutes! Can't you see that I'm fucking suffocating!! JUST GIVE ME A COUPLE DAMN MINUTES! THAT'S ALL I'M ASKING FOR!!"
"Okay okay..I'll be outside letting them know..Don't worry"
Ha..Don't worry she said. These past three years I've heard that same phrase from different people. Don't worry. I continued to stand in front of the mirror as I turned to the side looking at the back of the dress. Sure it shimmered just enough..Yes it was huge and puffy..Definitely any girls dream come true. Though to me it was my funeral I was walking into and this glamorous dress was prove of it.
Landon. That name my ears have not heard of these past years. That name my lips have restrained themselves from saying. That name that still causes so much pain inside. His name was like a sword puncturing my heart. All the memories agonizing my mind. Every corner I turned too I saw him. Every single memory vividly playing in my head was an endless torture. I missed him. More than he'll ever know.
*WEDDING BELLS RINGING*
It took all my might to walk down the long stairs and into a room full of guests. People began to cheer and bright flashes of pictures began to snap. Petra immediately waved her hand to indicate me that I needed to follow the rose petals. Those lovely petals that led down to a chapel..my tormenting hell.
Josh stood by looking at me with heartbreaking eyes. As he took me by the arm he whispered in my ear "I know I'm suppose to walk you down the aisle on behalf of Dad..But just know that I can also take you faraway from here right now if you just say that you want out..I swear Jade we'll turn away and just go". I gave him a forced smile as I replied "You can't kill someone that is already lifeless..Can you? Today in that altar I will be signing my death sentence. Not you nor anyone else can stop it from happening. I have nowhere to turn. This is my destiny Josh. After all I only have one option and that is to accept it".
Having that said we walked down the aisle quietly not speaking another word. Even if my heart was bleeding and my mind was loudly shouting HELP! I remained silent.
Even when I had walked a slow pace trying to make the walk a never-ending one. We had reached the devil himself..Cedric Wesley. He stood so elegantly dressed in an expensive suit and wearing polished shoes. The guy looked like he was ripped off a hot model magazine.
