Chloe's POV:

*ring
*ring
*ring

I stretched to the other side of my bed and opened my eyes slowly looking at my stupid alarm clock in anger. Can't it just ring once and leave me alone? But then I remembered what today was and gave a little smile

I turned to the other side of my bed and stretched some more before finally getting off of my soft bed.
*mornings

I went back from my bed to pick cherry, gave a tight hug with a cheery smile and put her away in my wardrobe, the way I got her back from Zoe seven years ago is a verry lonnng story

~flashback~

I kept on crying because I had just lost one of the gifts my father gave to me until, my dad got home later that night and found me in my room.
"What's wrong Chloe?"
"Zoe took the teddy you gave to me" I replied with tears in my eyes and immediately dad went over to Zoe's room and came back with my teddy

~End of flashback~

OK, maybe it isn't such a long story.

I went into the bathroom and took a bath.

I'm so excited and nervous at the same time, today is my wedding day. I, Chloe Morganne is gonna be getting married to somebody and become his wife.

Yep, that's what today is, MY WEDDING.

I'm so happy, nervous but happy.

My mum, sis and makeup artist would be here any time soon to prepare for today. They should have been here a while ago but thankfully they are not cause I was so not ready to interrupt my beauty sleep.

I finished washing up and went back to my room to stare at my wedding gown again, it looked so beautiful.

I smiled and sat on my bed fantasizing how it would look on me, how Alec would probably look in his suit and what would happen when the priests finally announce the 'May you kiss the bride thingy'

I was waiting on my bed dressed in just singlets and shorts, where is my mother?

I picked up my phone and called her but her phone was on silent. Seriously?, this is not how you treat an almost newly married person.

I checked the time, it was exactly 5:46.

OK, my wedding starts around 7:00 but I need to dress up now, I heard it takes a woman years to dress up for her wedding day.

I called Dad's phone but it was switched off, I tried Zoe and Mum's again but it was also switched off.

I began to get worried and confused

Why would their phones be switched off?. If Zoe's phone is switched off I would understand but what about mum and dad.

Zoe has honestly been angry since she found out I was getting married, she said it was only sensible she gets married before me since she's the cute one but I completely ignored her.
She doesn't really have the right to tell me when to get married especially when it comes to Eric Aidon.

Eric and I met in college, he was actually Zoe's boyfriend and we became good friends until she broke up with him and started dating Aiden. Ever since she broke up with him, we became more close and started dating for some time and it resulted to this, marriage.

The most amazing part was that he was my first boyfriend and apparently my last and soon to be husband.

I checked my phone again, 6:18.

I can't really wait for mum anymore, I think I'll be the first bride to not wear makeup

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What?

So I have to walk there too?

I finished dressing up already and went outside only to find NOTHING.

Exactly, I had no ride to get to the church.

What is wrong with everybody?
How can they go to a wedding and forget the BRIDE?

I checked my phone again, 6:52.

"It's a thirty minutes walk from here to the church, I hope I'll be able to make it" I whispered to myself before holding my wedding gown and literally running to the church to get a ring on my finger

I am gonna so get the world record for worst bride ever.

I ran for a few minutes before loosing my breath and then I started walking a bit slowly.

I was still minding my own business walking when a car came speedingly and splashed some dirty water from the wet ground unto my white wedding gown.

I got so mad I started screaming at the vehicle that was already a lot of meters away from me.

I was tired already, I fell to the floor and cried my eyes out

My wedding dress is ruined, I still have like twenty more minutes to get to church by foot and I look like a psycho running around the street with a wedding gown.

I'm not sure this is how people get married. It's probably just my bad luck.

I got up and continued walling and stopping and crying at intervals, I checked the time, it was 9:08.

If I wasn't the bride, I would have said that the wedding was already over but I really don't feel like the bride considering the fact that everybody ditched me today.

I picked myself from the floor again and continued to run and finally I got there, I was in church, I had some mud on my face and dress, I had no makeup on, my shoes were muddy and my hair was messy but who cares?, I'm still getting married

I opened the door at once causing everyone to look my direction but before that I heard the words
"You may now kiss the bride"

And then Eric was kissing someone, I was standing there, everyone was staring at me and Eric was kissing a female

But I thought, I was the bride?

Author's note:

Who is this 'female?'
