The wrong man (open to one female)

[Marcusr88]

He was so happy for them, but still felt the anger and hate flow through him. As he watched his bestfriend marry the girl of his own dreams, he wondered where he had gone wrong. There were had been so many chances for him to tell her how he felt but as Jake saw their lips touch for the first time as man and wife his heart sank. He stared at her and then stared at him, he knew he was his bestfriend but man was she far too good for him, she was beautiful, he had known her first, they had been best friends in school, they had been inseperable until Tom stole her off him, they first got together at Jake's 21st and their relationship had grown behind Jake's back for the next year until they came out that they were engaged, how had he been so stupid not to have noticed.

As they made their way down the aisle Jake made his mind up that he would tell her tonight, tell her to be with him and not Tom, tell her that they were meant to be together and that she was making a mistake. Screw it, he'l have enough alcohol in his system to give him the courage by then and if it all goes wrong then he can just slip out.

He stepped outside with the rest of the crowd with a handful of confetti, as they stepped out he threw it at them, just fitting in with everyone else, but there was something that seperated him from everyone else, it was that her eyes were on Jake only, her pearly white smile directed at him.

They got to the party hall with no problems after, the place was huge, they had obviously broke the bank with this wedding. He sat down on the top table with the bride and groom and their family, just two seats away from the girl of his dreams while they made a toast. The food and speechs seemed to fly by, he didnt pay too much attention to be honest, except of course for his own speech in which he managed to make at least 10 big fuck ups which made his face go a beautiful red. Well at least if I get turned down later it wont be as painful as this. He sat down again as the father of the bride got up to make his speech, he looked across to catch her giggling at him.



This is Jake:

Jenny was so happy she just married the man she loves. As she and her new husband stepped outside all of they're friends threw confetti on them, smiling widely she noticed Jake in the crowd as she gave him a special smile before she continued to walk side by side with her husband. Jenny has always had athing for Jake but nothing ever happened because Jake never made a move on her and Tom did, she was tired of waiting so she finally gave Tom a chance. Who knew it would end in marriage, she giggled to herself as she though of the past.

At the party hall Jenny was abit bored as she sat there listening to everyones speechs, they were all so plain and basically the samething over and over and over from everyone. She sighed before she saw Jake stand up, she was abit to excited to know he was going to speak. She started giggled as she heard him miss up like 10 times on one speech, but yet she though it out beat everyone elses. She looked over at Jake not paying any attention to her fathers speech.

Snapping back to reality Jenny clapped as her father took his seat, she smiled at him as she excused herself from the table, she made her way to the ladies room, sitting on the counter she sat there and though about why she was thinking about another man on her WEDDING DAY. Jenny tried to shake the though away as she sat in the ladies room for a few minutes.

This is Jenny

[Marcusr88]

Jake watched her excuse herself and leave the top table, she even looked beautiful from behind, he realised he was staring and tried desperatly to look around the area as well as at Jenny just to get stop anyone getting any idea's, was he going to tell her, should he?

She looked back and he pretended not to see her, he just quickly averted his gaze, as the door closed behind her, he wandered in that general direction, making conversation as he went, giving the expected hello's to them strangers of Tom's family who he hadnt seen since he was in single digits of age. "Oh my haven't you grown", "You've changed so much" The usual crap came from them, obviously they had missed that life lesson where you get older and your general look changes after over 10 years.

He walked past the door Jenny had just gone through, and ordered a drink at the bar, he threw the shot down and came back. What the hell was he going to do when he got in there, not only was he planning on telling the girl he had always loved his true feelings 4 hours after she had just got married but he would also be going into the girls toilets.

He smiled to himself and turned around just as the door opened and he just knew who it was

[xxschool_girlxx]

Jenny heard someone walk past the bathroom door, she sighed to herself relieved no one was going into the bathroom to see her like this. She looked in the mirror realizing tears were running down her face. She didn't understand why she was crying, she just got married this was HER day her happy day but why did she feel like everything was wrong. She shook off the though."This is my wedding. The day my life starts with the man I love." She though to herself, she didn't even believe her own words but she didn't care. She was now married and she wasn't going to let these feels for another man get to her.

She washed her tear stain cheeks before she replied her make-up. She tried to make it look like she hadn't been tearing. "If anyone asks It was happy tears." She thought to herself again as she smiled to herself in the mirror before she sighed again fixing her dress. She pulled herself together as she walked over to the bathroom door opening it as she started walking out of the bathroom she seen Jake standing there.

Seeing him turn around to face her made her light up with excitment. She tried to hide how excited she is to see him even though she just saw him a few moments ago. She walked up to him and gave him a quick hug. "I loved you're speech, Jake! It was.... memorable." She giggled as she let him go and took a step back smiling at him.

[Marcusr88]

He felt his happiness surge through him, she gripped onto his waist as her head pushed into his neck. He laughed and smelt her hair, he couldnt help it, it was a habit that had stuck with him for as long as he could remember. He laughed at her comment about her speech and gave her a little poke in the side. She giggled and pulled away.

"I'l always know your buttons little Jenny"

As she pulled away he saw her eyes looking teary, he moved one finger to brush away the tear building up, as he wiped it away he moved that one hair out of place.

"Happy tears or so much more than that?"

[xxschool_girlxx]

Jenny laughed abit before she spoke. "I'm not alittle Jenny anymore, Jake. I'm married."

She sighed under her breath so he couldn't hear her as another tear fell down her check, she felt his hand touch her check as she looked into his eyes and tried to smile. Nodding for a second." Yeah... happy tears." She knew it was a lie because she knew it was so much more. She hope he didn't read her like a book and see she just lied to him probably for the first time in they're relationship. She shook her head not wanting to lie to him. "No, Jake. It's not happy tears it's... sad tears.. I.. I think I just married the wrong man." She just realized what she just said, removing his hand from her cheek. "I should get back before Tom starts worrying." Jenny picked up her dress so she wouldn't fall over it as she begain to walk back to the table.

Jenny reached the table as she seen Tom smile at her as she stood up pulling out her chair for her. She took a seat right next to him hoping when Jake got back he wouldn't say anything about what she confessioned a few minutes ago. She felt her new husband take her by the hand under the table. She felt like she wanted to rip her hand off just so he wouldn't touch her. "God this is going to be a long night" She thought to herself as she looked around for Jake.

[Marcusr88]

Jake was left in shock, that little revelation had made him so much more confident about what he wanted to do. He watched her walk from him, he could still feel the warmth of her body against his chest, the feeling of closeness to her he always wanted. As she got back to the top table his heart sank again as he realised what he was doing, trying to rip apart a relationship so new they hadn't spent one night with each other. He looked over and didn't see a smile across Jenny's face but a look of desperation.

He scribbled a note down and made a detour to the bar before strolling up to the top table. He reached Tom and put his arm around him.

"congratulations man, who would of thought any lady could stand you long enough to walk up the aisle"

He gave tom a little jab in the arm and Tom smiled back. Jake dropped a note on the table in front of Jenny, she watched his back and he held a bottle of vodka and two shot glasses. He looked back and smiled at her. Jenny opened the note, her hands shaking, her nerves were kicking in but she was loving it. The note had some writing on, it took her a while to work out what it said, Jake had always had doctors writing, which just meant that no one could ever understand what he had written. Once she finally decoded it she got up and left the table. The note said:

"You and me have got some talking to, this bottle isn't going to drink itself, meet me in the office down the hall on the right in 5 minutes. XxX"

[xxschool_girlxx]

As Jenny read the message she started thinking of ways to get away from the table without Tom or anyone else realizing or worrying. She sighed to herself as she decided not to go. "This is my wedding night.. I can't go off and see another man." She thought to herself as she watched Jake walk away. Jenny suddenly felt sad as she watched him walk down the hallway till she couldn't see him anymore. She tried to smile at Tom when he looked at her. "Are you alright." She heard him whispere, shaking her head before she answered. "Um, no. I have this huge headache. It's from all this excitement it's finally caught up to me I guess." She looked down feeling even worse lying to Tom like that.

"I'm going to go lay down for a second or two I'll be back." She kissed him on the cheek before she stood up and slowly made her way down the hallway to the office down the hall. She knocked on the door before she opened it quietly as walked in. She saw Jake leaning against the desk with the bottle sitting right next to him on the desk. She smiled at him as she closed the door. "Hi.." Knowing what Jake wanted to talk about, Jenny started to get alittle nervous.

[Marcusr88]

As Jake walked with Tom, he tried desperartly to create conversation, it drifted to the usual stuff fuys talk about, sports and then maybe the last time they were completly hammered togther, that distracted him for a bit. As they walked Jake saw his target, he knew Tom's aunt could never shut the hell up once she got started, he walked Tom over and then stood as an audience member to the conversation for a bit as Tom's aunts mouth went into overdrive and her bottom Jaw turned into a horrible blur. Jake made his excuse's and left, he looked over and saw Jenny at the top table still reading the note, he had to move quickly, it just wouldnt have been right for Jenny to turn up to an empty room.

As he sat down on the edge of the table in the room he heard the handle of the door turn slowly, with each bit it lowered his heart rate increased, so many things rushed through his mind, god what was he going to say to her. The door opened and she looked in to see him and smiled, the door closed behind her as she stepped into the room. She let out an inaudible "hi" Jake only knew she said it cause he could read her lips, he knew she was just as nervous as him. As Jenny looked up Jake walked over to kiss her on the cheek, of all the things to think of as his lips connected to her cheek was that just how close they were to her lips, one kiss on her lips could tell her more about how he felt for her then any words could.

He pulled away from her to see a smile. Jake walked to the table and started to pour two shots of vodka.

" Now tell me, why don't you want to be married to Tom?"

[xxschool_girlxx]

Jenny got even more nervous as she saw Jake walking towards her, she looked into his eyes before he kissed her on the cheek and then the lips. She wanted to bad to kiss him back but then he broke the kiss and walked back over to the desk to pour a few shots for them. She cleared her thoat before she answered his question. "I didn't say I didn't want to be married to Tom. Tom is such a great man and he would make any woman so happy but he isn't the guy for me." She sighed to herself before she spoke again. "I... I just wish I'd realize this before I married him."

She walked over towards Jake taking one of the shots from off the desk, drinking it fast. She took the bottle from him walking behind the desk taking a seat in the big black chair. "I also wish the guy for me was man enough to have stepped up when he had the chance instead of pushing me into Tom's arm's." She looked up at Jake, knowing he knew she was talking about him.

She took a big sip out of the Vodka bottle, feeling the liquid burn down her thoat taking away some of the pain she is feeling along with the hate for herself.

"Why, now Jake?" She asked as she looked into his eyes again. "Why on my wedding day? Why don't you want me to be happy?" She looked down trying not to try at the thoat her husband's best friend just kissed her seconds ago.

[Marcusr88]

Jenny's words hit him hard, he had beaten himself up every day since he first realised his feelings for her, every minute of every hour was spent with her on his mind. Jen took a swig of the bottle and shuddered after, she was having problem's he had never seen her act like this.

"I.......I'm.........sorry.......I wish........I....."

Jenny interrupted him.

"Why on my wedding day? Why don't you want me to be happy?"

Jenny looked down and refused to look up at Jake, he stood there for what seemed an eternity, he felt beyond stupid, here he was, the girl who he had loved all his life was pouring all her emotions out to him and all he could do was stand there. Frozen. He walked over to Jenny, he had always been the one to stop her getting angry, to stop the tears, but he had caused these one's. He stopped short of just placing his hand on her cheek, he lowered it and grabbed the vodka from her and took a swig himself.

[xxschool_girlxx]

Jenny shook her head as Jake took the bottle from her before drinking. She looked up at him again with tears in her eyes this time. "Jake... I.... I love Tom and I'm married to him. You know I don't cheat when I'm with someone doesn't matter what my feels are I'm faithful." She stood up giving him a kiss on the check before she whispered. "I'm sorry! But you've lost you're chance. I gave you so many, I waited for you for as long as I could." She placed her hand in his check, wanting so bad to take back all of her words and kiss him but she knew she couldn't no matter how bad she wanted it.

"Tom asked me to marry him three times before I said yes, you know." She wrapped her tears as she cleared her thoat trying to stop herself from crying. "I'm.. going to head back. The last thing we need is for Tom to come looking for me and finding his wife crying while his best friend is getting drunk, I would end badly for all of us." She frowned as she removed her hand from his cheek taking a step back. "I'm not going to tell him about the kinda kiss."

She tried to smile at him as she started to wal towards the door, she reached the door stopping as she said under her breath. "I love you Jake.. I always will."

[Marcusr88]

Jake felt his eyes starting to fill with tears, he held them back, he heard everything but took none of it in, all he could here from her was that he had been a tool, a stupid idiot, a fool a man that couldn't realise how perfect his life could have been if he had taken the chance.

He felt the warmth of her hand on his face, the feeling of the softness of her hand remained on his face, the happiness he felt from just contact would normally bring about a smile but he knew this may be one of the last times he could ever feel like this unless he got his coward self up and did something about it. He turned to see her walk further towards the door, her hand stopped on the door handle, he heard everything she said, that was it, that was what he needed.

Jenny turned back to the door and saw Jake's hand hold it closed, he moved next to her. Jenny's hand slowly slipped off the handle, she knew right now she wouldn't be able to go anywhere, there eyes stared into each others for what seemed an eternity, he felt lost in them, her tears glistened in the light from the lamp in the corner of the room.

"You're right, you shouldn't tell Tom about the kinda kiss, and don't tell him about this one either."

Jake placed his hand on her cheek and kissed her lips slowly, both of their mouths opened as the kiss became more passionate, his arms wrapped around and completly covered the whole of her body. He broke the kiss and leaned his forehead against hers.

"I love you Jenny, more than I can ever show you. And that's how I've always felt, your perfect, the only girl I can feel happy with"

[xxschool_girlxx]

As Jenny grabbed the door handle trying to open the door she realized Jakes hand was on the door keeping it shut.

Letting go of the door handle she turned towards him looking at him abit confused as he told her "and don't tell him about this one either." She didn't really know what he meant by that till he felt him place in hand on her cheek and kiss her.

Jenny was shocked for a second then started to kiss him back with just as much passion he was giving her. Wrapping her arms around his neck as she closed her eyes enjoying his lips on hers till he broke the kiss, putting his forehead against hers.

His words made her feel like her heart was about to break in half, she knew they couldn't be together since she just married his best friend only hours ago. "I love you Jake but I don't know what we're going to do. We can't be together because of Tom and I can't divorce him because he'll know the reason why I did it." She sighed, letting go of Jake as she leaned back on the door. "The night before last, he asked me if I was in love with you. He knows you love me because of the way you look at me or the way you act around me, I've seen it too thats why I waited for so long... I wish it was you I married today." She whispered the last part as a tear fell down her cheek.

Wiping the tear away she looked up at him before she shook her head. "I can't be with him tonight. I can't have him touching me wishing it was you."
