A MISSED AND MESSED UP CHANCE

Finally able to escape the room full of ladies, Jack glanced around – and couldn't believe his luck when just a moment later, One Shot's girlfriend came walking in from the rooftop garden and strolled down the hallway. He happily followed suit along the bending path. That is until he noticed another person approaching from the opposite side. Spencer. He dove out the balcony door in an instant and was gone from sight. Darn it! Why did he have to show up just then?! He looked up and took in the absurd scene in front of him.

The now pink and rose-colored sky covering a neat rooftop park, with a pair walking down an imaginary line towards the horizon and another lady with a suspiciously familiar fancy get up close by watching over the couple. Her back was turned to him, but somehow, he was certain to have seen that flashy dress not too long ago. She turned around and confirmed his suspicion, but it was too late for him to avoid the hawk-like eyes of the wedding planner that lit up in rage instantaneously.

"Excuse me for a minute," she said to the two.

He burst back inside, Spencer out of sight, he rushed forward, glancing back, and slammed into another body. Both tumbled to the ground. The other man got up faster, picking up his oversized glasses, and rushed down the hallway without apology in the direction where the other two had already disappeared to. What a rude guy, Jack thought, not a word of apology.

"And what do we have here? I distinctly remember telling you to stay downstairs?" An ominous voice slithered into his field of awareness. Great. The wedding planner. That chance was gone for good. With Spencer in the wedding hall, he couldn't risk sneaking in. He would have to wait for his chance to get One Shot's girlfriend all alone. No matter. His chance would come, sooner or later.
