“Have you guys….you know?”
“Uh…..”
“You haven’t?!”
“No? Why? Is that bad?” I ask and she looks at me like I have seven heads
“Jess! You’ve been dating for what, like 9 months now! What’s stopping you guys?”
“I kind of want to wait until my wedding night” I say shyly
“Awe, you’re so cute!” She says and she pinches my cheek.
“Why does it matter?” I ask
“He’s a guy. Guys have needs, hun” Liv says and she walks over to the bathroom mirror.
“But, he’s never even mentioned it before” I say and Liv turns around.
“Really?”
I nod my head “I mean a while ago he said that he would never pressure me into doing something I wasn’t ready for, but that’s it. And ever since the whole Mark thing, he hardly kisses me.”
“Why do you think that?”
“I think he thinks I’m fragile or something; like he’s going to hurt me.”
“Hmm”
“Yeah, tell me about it. It’s getting kind of old.”
“Well how are you about the whole Mark thing? I mean, I was only a month ago.”
I shrug my shoulders “I don’t know. I just didn’t expect it. I mean, he was one of my best friends, for God’s sake, right? How am I supposed to feel? I feel like it’s my fault, Liv.I led him on and into believing that I loved him just as much as he loved me.”
“Jess, Hun it’s not your fault. Don’t ever feel or say that. Something inside him just snapped. You heard what the doctors said about him. There is nothing you could have said or done to stop him from doing what he did. As sad as it may sound.”
I nod my head and I look over at my alarm clock. “We have about forty minutes before pictures, so let’s get ready.”
“Let me do your makeup!”
“Ugh, fine.” I say and I sit down at my desk and let her do her magic.
“Are you girls ready?” My mom calls from downstairs
“Five more minutes!” I yell as I get my shoes on and fix my hair a bit.
I have to say we cleaned up pretty well. Liv looks amazing in her strapless, white Aztec print dress with her hair up in a curled, pony tail. I turn around and I look at myself in the mirror. I’m wearing a sequined, royal blue dress with my hair curled in a ponytail to the side.
“You ready?”
I look over at Liv ad I nod “Ready as I’m going to be”
She walks downstairs first and I follow a minute after her. I make my way downstairs and I see my mom snapping pictures, John has his arms around Selena, Will is standing there in his black tux, silver tie and vest. Wow, he looks amazing. And then there’s Jack. My eyes meet his and I can feel the blush spreading across my cheeks, however my eyes never leave his.
He mouths the words ‘I love you’ as he stands in the background of everyone. I finish walking downstairs and Will walks over to me, wide-eyed and smiling.
“You look absolutely amazing” He says, looking down at me.
“You look very charming yourself, Will” I say. He slips the corsage on my wrist and I look down at the beautiful flower.
