I walked down the isle in a beautiful white dress, everyone I care about was here. This was my wedding day, the day I would be tied to the one I love for the rest of my life.

We would have many kids and a huge house with a big backyard and a pool. We would celebrate our 60th anniversary with our kids and grandchildren.

"Do you Emma rose peters take Connor lee Dixon as your loving husband and promise to love him in sickness and in health till death do you apart?"

"I do" Connor smiled and wiped a tear from my eye.

"Do you Connor lee Dixon take Emma rose peters as your loving wife and promise to love her in sickness and in health till death do you apart?"

"I do" he looked at me with so much love.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife' you may kiss the bride" we kissed and everyone cheered.

Suddenly everything disappeared and I was alone in the church.

"Connor! Connor were are you!" I looked everywhere but no one was there. The church was empty.

I'm alone.

I fell to my knees and everything went black.

I woke up sweating.

"It was just a nightmare."I whispered "just a nightmare."

I laid back down and closed my eyes.

I've been having the same dream for a week now. I haven't told anyone about them because they would just worry.

I couldn't go back to sleep so I carefully walked over to my window making sure I didn't wake zina up.

I opened my window and climbed out to the roof. I laid down just staring at the stars.

After a while I started to talk to them.

"People tell me things happen for a reason, that nothing just randomly happens...." I paused

"That our story's are written in the starts...."I sat up and pulled my knees to my chest.

"Tell me...if this was how his was written why...why did you bring us together?" I started to cry.

"What was the point of making us fall in love and later be ripped apart!" I yelled.

Why can't we go back to when we were happy?

~Flash Back~

We were 10 when we went to the lake.

"Hey Emma do you think we will always be together?" I looked over at Connor who was laying on the grass next to me.

"Of course we are, we'll be all old and wrinkly, and we'll be looking up at the sky like today." I laughed.

Connor smiled at me and nodded. "Yeah"

"Come on let's go in the water again!" I got up and pulled him with me.

We played and laughed all day, making faces and planing how our future would be.

Looking forward to our future together.

~Flash Back Over~

So many thing we planned that we will never get to do.


I cried for what seemed like hours, until my eyes became dry.

I made my way back to my room and found Caleb was sitting on my bed.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was getting a glass of water when I heard you on the roof." He patted the spot next to him.

I walked over to him and sat down.

"You're not alone Emma, you have your parents, your friends, Sam, and you have me." He put his arm around me.

"We'll never leave you alone..." I looked him straight in the eyes.

"Don't promise something you can't keep" I whispered.

"I know we will all part someday but for as long as we can, we will be by your side." He gave me a tight hug.

"You are one of the strongest people I know......look Emma it may be raining now but it can't rain forever." I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his chest.

"Remember there's always a rainbow after the storm, we just have to make it till then." He kissed my forehead and got up.

"Now get some rest okay" I nodded and went back to bed.

He's right, maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

At least that's what I thought, but I was wrong.....
