We jumped into the car where Tom, Harry and Danny were waiting. Crashed the Wedding blasted out of the speakers, earning a laugh. “So what now?” Danny asked. I thought for a second, I had no idea what happens next. I had no plan whatsoever. “I think first things first, let’s get you out of that dress.” Dougie said referencing to my wedding dress that just so happened to be taking up most of the car. “Good idea.”

DOUGIE'S POV

We all agreed to drop Evie home so she could change and get some clothes and stuff. When we arrived, I offered to go in and help but she insisted I stay in the car. A few minutes later a black range rover sped down the quiet road, stopping right outside the house. It wasn't hard to guess who it was - the number plate read 4LEX 415. A particularly angry looking Alex stepped out the car and stormed up the steps into the house. I went for the door handle, ready to follow but Harry pulled me back. “You’ll only make it worse, let them sort it out together.” He said reasonably.
“But what if he hurts her?” I suggested anger boiling up at the thought.
“He won’t. Think about it, he wants her back, punching her isn’t going to help his case.”
“I suppose…” I replied, intently watching the house.

ALEX'S POV

To say I was angry was an understatement. I was fuming. How could she just leave me like that? Right at the alter as well! For a minute I thought she would stay, that she would turn him away and we could carry on the wedding in peace, but no. My heart split into hundreds of tiny pieces when she took of that ring and placed it in my hand. What did he have that I didn’t? As soon as she left I followed after. She would have to go back to house first right? She couldn’t wear that dress, no matter how stunning she looked in it, forever could she? I thundered down the roads, completely ignoring the speed limits. I didn’t care if I got a speeding ticket, I had an almost marriage to save.

My anger increased as I pulled up at our house, the house we picked out together, to see that stupid guy and his mates sat in a car outside. I was half tempted to go for him but Evie was my priority, I could deal with him later. So I stormed into the house, frantically searching for her. Eventually I found her in our bedroom. She had changed out of her dress, her hair was a little disheveled and she was shoving clothes into a suitcase.

EVIE’S POV

Alex appeared in the doorway, jaw clenched and veins popping, His eyes black with betrayal. “What are you doing?” He asked frantically, his black eyes softening to a brown. I didn’t really know what to say to him, so I just replied with the obvious. “I’m packing.” He ran his hands through his thick black hair. “No you’re not, you can’t.!” He shouted, crossing the room and throwing my suitcase off the bed. He grabbed my shoulders. “You don’t know what you’re doing! This is all a mistake right?” He cried.
“Alex… I…” I looked down in shame. He moved his hands to my face and lifted it up so I was looking at him. He kissed me passionately and I responded, kissing him back, until I realized what I was doing and pulled back. Hands still on my face he urged “Didn’t that mean anything to you? These past 4 years, did they mean nothing? You can’t just throw that away!”
“Of course not. These past 4 years have been amazing but I’m just not happy anymore. This-“I referenced to us two with my hands, “just isn’t working anymore, I’m sorry.” I looked away.
“Then we can make it work!” He pleaded, tears beginning to form in his eyes.
“I’m really sorry Alex but I’ve made my decision.” I pulled out of his grasp and picked my suitcase off the floor, quickly re-packing it as tears began to form in my eyes too. As soon as I finished I lugged it down the stairs. “Please don’t go…”  Alex begged. “We can sort this out’!”
“I’m really sorry…” I said for the final time before turning on my heels and leaving the house. I heard Alex break down behind me and could swear I heard him punch a wall. I felt awful, I'd never seen him so distraught and it was all my fault. 

I wiped my eyes and climbed into the car, putting my suitcase in the boot. Tom, Danny, Harry and Dougie all looked at me expectantly. I must have looked a mess, tear stained cheeks, make-up smudged and hair everywhere but right now I was not in the mood to explain to them what happened. As we drove off I watched the house get smaller and smaller in the distance until it was no longer visible. I guess now it was time to start a new life.
