I was set to get married in two days when everything changed. Mike got up to pee and his phone went off with a text.
Emilie: Had such a good time with you the other night ;) let me know when we can do it again if you know what I mean..
My heart beat accelerated and my breathing sped up. Who the fuck was Emilie?
"What are you doing?" Mike asked as he walked back in. "Are you going through my phone?"
"Who's Emilie?" I asked softly.
"Why are you going through my phone?" He asked flatly.
"I wasn't going through your god damn phone, Mike. It just buzzed and I was going to give it to you and then I read it. Who the fuck is Emilie?" I repeated, growing angrier.
"It was an accident! I met her the other night and-"
"You were fucking some whore at your bachelor party?!" I demanded.
"I love you so much." He said. "It was an accident, I never meant to hurt you."
"Too late." I said quietly, sliding off my engagement ring and setting it on the counter.
"Charley, we're supposed to get married! You're the only girl I want!" Mike cried, following me as I turned to leave.
"How could you?" I screamed, sobs racking my body. "I've given you everything and all you ever do is make me feel like I'm not good enough!"
"Charley, please. I'm begging you. Don't do this." Mike tried to plead with me, but I was already gone.

"You were right. You didn't have the best way of going about things, but you were right. I can't do this anymore." I said as soon as Austin opened his front door.
He looked at me sympathetically. "I didn't want to be right. Come in."
I followed my cousin inside and sat down beside him, explaining everything. "We're not getting married anymore. Fuck. Everything was going so well and now I can't even function."
"I will never understand how someone as amazing as you can love someone like him." Austin replied. "You don't deserve this. You never have."
"I just. . . I can't believe he would do this." I said with my head in my hands.
"I've been where you are, remember? It's going to hurt like hell for a while, but it'll get better." He said.
"You know what? A year ago, I would have thought he did what he did because I was too fat or ugly. Now. . . I don't feel that. And I think that's incredible." I said.
"You've come really far, you know. I'm beyond proud of you." Austin replied. I looked down at my buzzing phone; Vic was calling.
I sighed, knowing I was an idiot for answering. "What is it?"
"Charley!" Mike slurred. "Come on, we have to get married!"
"Give Vic the phone." I said harshly.
"Mike, what are you-" Vic's voice came through the background. "Charley?"
"Hi, Vic."
"I'm. . . I don't really know what to say. I had no idea. I don't even know when it all happened." Vic replied.
"Is he very drunk?" I asked.
"Of course."
"I'll come get him." I sighed, wondering what the hell I was going to do.
