The Wedding Day

Kayleigh's Pov

The weekend arrived in the snap of fingers, Daniel was too worried that I will break down in front of Edward and they were scared about my decision to not tell anyone about Haley (they were worried that they will know that I had a baby the moment they will see me, like my body had changed, which hasn't!) 'I know one day they will definitely find out about it, they would be very upset about me not disclosing them sooner, this is definitely not the place or time to tell these things. When I feel that the time is right, I will introduce Haley to them until then no one has to know!' To pull me out of my thoughts Sam gently pulled my nose and I started sneezing back to back for couple of minutes, "What the hell Sam! You could have just called out my name, why would you do that?" I asked covering my nose through my fingers and breathing through my mouth while she just flashed her tight lipped smile and Daniel, who was walking out of the kitchen with a bottle of water answered on her behalf, "Sweetie you were zoned out from over 5 minutes! Do you even know when I entered your apartment?" He sat down on the couch and looked between us, "So what have you Gals been doing? Any pre-wedding booze going around?" I gave him a fake glare while Sam chose to ignore him and next rot him doing something in her phone then he muttered 'Boring!' For which I ignored him and walked in to Haley's nursery to find her sleeping peacefully so I walked back to the living room to find gossiping something in each other's ears and giggling. I placed my hands on my hips and shot them an 'What the hell is going on?' Look to which they both looked at me with smirk. Daniel spoke in amusement, "Sam here is claiming, "since you are going to attend Pats' wedding, Sam is claiming that you are letting her do your make-up!" I shrieked, "Hell No! I don't want to walk out of this house looking like a zombie.." Daniel fell from the couch with his laughter holding his stomach which earned him a smack from Sam. I rolled my eyes at him sitting between them, "What's so funny about it? stop troubling her!" Sam held her hand in air, "Relax Kay, we have an hour to make you ready for the wedding and besides Haley will wake up soon so you're on your own!" I nodded and mentally thanked my lucky stars. I walked in the bathroom and took a long shower as I mentally prepared myself to show up. I walked out of shower after almost an hour, I quickly styled my hair and put on make up before wearing the dress. Pat picked blue dresses for all her bridesmaids, a couple of days ago she gave me the store address so I went for fitting and got my dress. Yesterday I was suppose to go for rehearsal dinner but I called her and gave some excuse before promising her to show up in time for the wedding. I opened the dress bag and starred at the dress, it was a mermaid style sky blue floor length dress and I loved it. After putting on dress, shoes, jewellery, I picked up my clutch and walked in to the living room and did a little twirl for Dan, Sam and Haley who was sitting in Dan's lap. I quickly pecked Haley's cheek then hugged them goodbye and walked out. As I reached the car, I turned around to have another look at my friends and Haley; Dan and Haley waved at me while Sam leaned on the door with a genuine smile so I waved at them and got in the car to drove towards the given address.

As I pulled over, I saw bunch of people walking in and some of them looked familiar. I sat in the car while I took few deep breaths and mentally prepared self for all the upcoming conversations. After getting down, I handed my car key to the valet and walked straight towards the bride's green room. As I stood in front of the door, a genuine smile spread on my lips as I knocked the door and peeked in. Beth and Patricia turned their heads towards me. I walked in awe towards them, Pat looked ever so gorgeous in her wedding dress with her hair curled up and a gorgeous veil flowing on her back while Beth looked stunning in her knee length blue dress. We enveloped each other in our hug as we squealed in joy. We pulled away from the hug and I held their hands looking at Pat in awe, "You're the most beautiful bride I've ever seen!" I hugged her again and mumbled, "I've missed you sweetie!" She replied a single tear dropped from her eye, "I missed you too!" Beth and I shushed her as we wiped her tear with the tissue, "Okay, no crying on your big day!" Beth said and I continued, "Yeah or you'll look like zombie after your make up is ruined and your groom will runaway and then you will run after me to kill me!" I pouted as I said that while she chuckled. We chatted for couple of minutes when her father arrived announcing 'Girls it's time!'

The door opened and a cute little flower girl stepped in sprinkling flowers on the floor and patsy's cousin sisters walked one after another, then Beth entered and then I followed after. As the 'the wedding song' played in violins, I looked at the groom, Aryan. I could tell he was nervous so I gave him a small smile, I looked at the groomsmen and there stood Jay and Edward looking strikingly handsome as I have always remembered. I didn't have to look behind Jay twice to know it was him, I was too terrified so I locked my eyes with Jay flashed him a small smile, while he smiled ear to ear flashing me a thumbs up secretly. Once I neared the aisle, I stood by my spot and looked at the door to see Pat walking down with her father holding her arm. Happy tears welled up in my eyes, as everything was just as we have ever dreamt off; She was a vision in white. She stopped in front of Aryan while he helped her to come up on the stage. They exchanged vows and sealed it with a kiss and every one clapped and cheered while me and Beth had tears of joy as we held our hands throughout the ceremony. Soon the reception party started so we congratulated the newly weds, I made small rounds with Beth around to greet Pat's family and friends. I was talking to Patsy's cousins when someone tapped on my shoulder, I turned around to see Jay standing in front of me grinning ear to ear, "May I have a pleasure of this dance?" I blushed as I asked, "Will you step on my feet?" He blushed, "Not if you don't want me to" We both chuckled and took a step forward and took his hand as he walked me to the dance floor. The song 'All of me' played as we started dancing, we smiled ear to ear as we danced looking at each other. A rush of euphoria released from my brain, remembering how much I missed him in the past year and half. He spoke as his eyes twinkled, "It's been long ha!?" I nodded faking a pout, "I look fat!" He chuckled, "Not really, you just have better curves now!" I chuckled, "So are you telling me that I didn't have good curves earlier?" He stammered, "No, you did! But I am seeing you after ages so you look the most beautiful woman in the room right now." We giggled, "Let's tell this to Pat and see how she reacts!" He had a horrified look on his face so I laughed, "Just kidding, It's so much fun to mess with you!" his expression changed from happy to sad as he confessed, "I missed you Leigh!" I confessed, "I've missed you too!" He twirled me once then asked, "So how are you doing? Kay" A smile escaped my lips, he is always so concerned about me, "how do you think I am doing?" A genuine smile played on his lips as he answered, "Well your looks says you are doing great without him! I must say every time I see you, you get more and more beautiful!" I chuckled, "It's a magic trick!" He scanned my face, twirled me then asked, "Kay, Is there something you would like to tell me? I feel like you are dying to tell me something". I gave him an assuring smile, "Jay why are you always so worried, just relax. Everything's great!" He took my words as we continued dancing never taking his eyes off of me, a little part of me felt a little uncomfortable; 10 minutes I spend with the man and he asks me if everything is fine. Good that we are not sitting down for a conversation right now or else he would have found out everything. To my relief the song ended and another one started, Jay twirled me twice and then thrice before letting go off my hand. I gracefully twirled one more time and I was in someone else's arms. I didn't have to open my eyes, I already knew who the man grabbing my waist was so I chose to never open my eyes but his deep voice spoke sending shivers down my spine, "Princess, won't you open your eyes and look at me? Like the way you look at everyone else and the way you talk to everyone!?" He said those last words with gritted teeth and his grip tightened around my waist. I opened my eyes to see his jaw clenched, "Edward you are hurting me!" He faked a gasp, "Oh my my the princess is hurt!" and he gritted his teeth again and this time it was loud enough for the whole world to hear it, "you should have thought of that before doing all those things to me sweetheart!" I tried to get out of grip, "What are you talking about? I have done nothing to you." His grip only tightened around me as tears started welling up in my eyes but I blinked them back 'There's no way I am crying in front of this man, not today!' I tried everything in me to control my anger and spoke with my voice ever so calm, "Edward. Let go of me right now!" He looked in my eyes like he was studying them as he asked, "What if I don't?" I looked around as I gritted my teeth, "You don't want to cause a scene, at least not on our friend's big day!" He just kept looking at me shocked as I spoke, "You are my biggest mistake, you will never ever change! Always the same toxic man that you have been-" my nose flared and all I saw was red as I said the remaining sentence, "Let go off me, right away. I don't want to cause a scene here, not today!" He looked shocked but stepped back anyways, I shook my head in disgust or more like in disappointment before turning around and storming off. As I jogged towards the valet, tears streamed down my face. I got in the car and sped off somewhere far far away.
