"you have nice eyes" i blurt
she looks at me and blushes, "i don't really like my eye color but thanks"
"what why? brown eyes are beautiful" i state
"i'd rather have blue" she says
"well you'd still look beautiful with blue or brown colored eyes" i tell her and she smiles
she throws the towel away and washes her hands. i stand slowly and watch her through the mirror
"what?" she smiles
"n-nothing" i shrug my shoulders
she wipes her hands and walks out the bathrooms
gosh i think i'm starting to like her
i sit up and rub my eyes, i squint when a bright light comes into my room. i stand slowly and shut the window
"good morning"
i turn around and see emily, she's holding a lipgloss in her hand
"hey" i sit back on the bed and run my hand through my hair
"everything alright hun?" she ask while doing her makeup
"yes"
"okay, make sure you get ready early. chris is coming over to take some photos for the wedding" she says
fuck
the wedding is in 5 days. 5 days till i marry the girl in front of me
"you're marrying the wrong girl"
her voice replays in my head and my breathing goes uneven. i continue staring at emily, picturing kelsey instead of her
it's so fucked. i cheated on her, not once with kelsey but with so many other girls, before we got engaged
she's carrying my baby, i cant leave now. it's too late
i need to tell her the truth eventually and i will. i'm going to tell her, tonight.
she needs to know
i take a deep breath and try to think of how i'm going to tell her. what if she goes around and tells my entire family, people will think of me as such a terrible person
"babe?"
"what?" i raise my head
"go get ready" she says and i stand from the bed
i don't know what to wear to this photo shoot, i feel like i've been wearing a tux everyday now and i hate wearing tuxes
i quickly change into one while staring at emily doing her makeup, her baby bump is barely showing which means she can still fit in the wedding dress
i really am marrying the wrong women. fuck
i go into the bathroom and brush my teeth and start fixing my hair
what if i never went back to emily? what if i went back to kelsey, would i be marrying kelsey instead?
would i still be in love with her?
