Emma watched  as her dreams ebbed away. The only man she ever wanted, the one that she had saved herself for, was getting married to another woman. She watched, but everything seemed dreamlike, like an out of body experience. For her it was a living nightmare, with every passing second, she looked on as her world was falling to pieces.

This was not how it was supposed to be, she thought, as by some miracle the tears stayed away.

The part came where the pastor asked if anyone had a lawful reason to oppose the union...

Will someone or something stop the wedding? afterall, it usually happens like that in the movie, right? Life, however, is not a movie, life can and will break you, but if you want to find out whether it not it broke Emma, then continue reading.All Rights Reserved

The Girl in the Hood by AxelOfGalloway

Emma looks at the people as she thinks deeply. How is it possible that no one in this room sees that she had to do this. That it was not a choice but an obligation. But who would help her it wasn't like anyone in this room would stand up for her. Because no one here would really understand her. She slowly looked them in the eyes one by one. Some people were still doing their best not to let their disgust show in their faces. Others gossiped shamelessly about her. But Emma didn't seem to care. Deep down, she knew she was better than all of them.

Angelical by qq_lisa_who

People seem to like her own personality, and how much she was sweet often times, although she does not understand people sometimes, it was hard for her and she was struggling on how to understand the others sometimes, although the others seem to dislike how much her personality can attract people it said that they was once jealous of her own personality She absolutely does not understand it, those things around her she did not understand it at all, although in the other side she was bored, extremely bored everytime she wants to know herself she'd avoid it, so it must because she was lazy, but what happens to herself at the end?, she over think those words sometimes, who would change her life at the end?

What I'd Do For You by Nooshjunior

Published: 22-6-2020 This is part 2 of The Dark Realm series There are two things Emma fears most; Returning to the realm that caused her so much pain, and letting her loved ones die. However she cannot avoid both fears. If she doesn't return to the Dark Realm, She will lose a very close friend of hers. Prologue: "So anyway, what do you want in exchange for your service?" I asked hoping he wouldn't go overboard. He leaned in and whispered in my ear, "It's pretty simple. I want you to owe me a favor. Just to be clear on the rules, you have to do what I ask you to whenever you're told to, and whatever the thing is." That's a risky game. I don't like to agree to something when I don't really know what it is. What the hell are you getting yourself into Emma? "What kind of a favor?" "That does not concern you just yet. Just remember that your little friend is almost out if time. August is near, and if you deny me my request, I'll kill that boyfriend of yours." he threatened. "And if I agree to this, when will you send me to the other realm?" "Any day next week. You choose." "OK. Deal." He put his hand out and I shook it. Two worlds One girl A mystery Dark got darker...

"I'd be lying if I said that I don't dream of a wedding like this anymore.. Sometimes in my dreams I see her.. stunning a white dress with her hair tied up in an elegant bun, I take her hand and help her go down with me to exchange the marriage vows and not just our hearts but our last names become one.. We dance as our laughter fill the place under the sun, She says yes to me announcing to the entire world that out of everyone I was her choice.. We promise each other to stay together through the sorrows before joys She then whispers to my ear with some words that I fail to hear because of all the noise, but the feeling of her breath alone makes me fail to keep my poise.. And when everyone gets back to their lives after gathering to rejoice with us.. I get her to be all mine.. as this thought floods my mind, I cross all the lines.. When we finally get to once again intertwine. In my dreams.. everything is heartwarming just like the smile she gave me the very first time we talked.. in my dreams everything is perfect just like her.. My only love, my fairytale.."

An Angel Amongst Devils (An enemies to lovers, slow burn romance) by prettytragedies4ever

'"Tell me what's wrong." I laugh, but it's filled with sadness, "I can't tell you what's wrong, I don't know you." "That's exactly why you can tell me. Because you don't know me." "Why do you care?" I whisper. "Why are you crying?" "I..." I whisper so quietly I can almost not even hear myself, though my sobs "I don't have anywhere to go."' When Emma's Mother dies, she has no intentions of returning home to live with her hated stepfather. Emma finds herself wondering the busy streets of New York aimlessly. This is where she realises that she has nowhere to go. She's 18 and homeless. Perfect! With little to no hope left, she meet's Arlo. He's cocky, arrogant and an undeniable asshole, but just so frustratingly so, he also happens to be the most handsome man Emma had ever laid her eyes upon. When he offers the offer of a lifetime, Emma debates if she can trust this stanger and whether there is more to this man than what meets the eye. What happens when your only hope is a stranger?

Settling Slowly by AbigailGranger

2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast Complete

You're Still The One *slowly editing* (Completed) by LaraRuze

'You didn't answer my question,' he asked, holding her gaze in his hypnotic ones. 'Wh... what question?' She was surprised at her own voice, it sounded like of someone else's. She wanted to ask him--which question, there were so many he had asked her tonight. Each one threatening in their own different ways to her sanity. Brandan smiled mysteriously. Not answering her, he instead said something else, 'Don't keep staring at me like that.' His voice was soft. Suddenly, she found herself in some other world. 'W.. why?' She stammered ridiculously. His lips slightly brushed against her, she closed her eyes in anticipation, under the spell of their lips connecting. Sparking were the electricity all over her skin. ''Cause....' He took a step back from her, leaving her cold and she was too lost to do something about it--like leaping closer to him and getting engulfed in the euphoric warmth once again. ''Cause, you will fall in love with me... ' He paused as growling deeply a set of thunders boomed above the skies. Cold wind made her hair dance around. He finally finished his sentence, 'Again.' Rain poured down upon her heavily as if the entire sky was about to break down over her, She opened her eyes against the cold water to see he had lef alreadyt, leaving her to drown into his words, completely. *** They say love's blind. Maybe that's why Emma loved Brandan despite all odds, more than she loved herself but only to find that it wasn't enough. When time and fate decided to be cruel to the utmost, she found herself broken in all the ways possible. Realizing that love wasn't enough, she picked up her ruined self and found a new beginning at the end. But fate had, apparently, some unexpected plans in store. Against all odds, they were meant to face one another once again. But this time, Brandan was a changed man and so was Emma. While one was burnt from the pain, another was burnt from the guilt. And then...
