I was happy. And why shouldn't I be? I was getting married to Bradley; he was smart, handsome and normal. Everyone was happy for me except for Daphne. She thought Puck was better than Bradley ever would be, but I didn't care.
All of a sudden I heard the music, my dad locked his arms with mine and we began to walk down the long, beautiful isle toward the rest of my life. Everyone I really and truly cared for was there, and that was all that really mattered. I was handed off to Bradley and my dad looked at me with his tear filled eyes and then slowly took his seat. This was it; the moment I had been waiting for so long to experience was here. We exchanged the cookie cutter vows herd by millions over time. We each made promises to love and cherish the other through thick and thin, rich and poor, sickness and health.
And then came that moment that every bride fears, "Speak now or forever hold your peace." To my surprise, no one said a word. After all was said and done, Bradley and I retreated down the aisle and out the giant double doors as husband and wife. Suddenly as everyone enjoys the post wedding festivities, I hear a familiar voice behind me. "Hey Stinky, miss me?" I glared at him. "Why are you here, Fairyboy?" He stared at me with laughter in his eyes, "Come on Grimm. I leave you for a few years and -…" I cut him short. "That was not a few years, Puck! You just left! I waited but I wasn't going to waste my whole life waiting!" he looked stunned by my hostile response. "So what we had meant nothing to you?" I couldn't let him see that I was still so madly in love with him, "What we had was a fling Puck. We were just kids. We saw what we thought was love and ran with it. It was silly puppy love, nothing more." That had crushed him. I could see the look of heartbreak clear as day on his beautiful face. "I see, well I wish you and our new husband the best."
He turned and walked back the way he came, out the doors and into the cold dark rain. In that instant I realized the magnitude of what I had just done. I quickly kicked of my heels and ran out after him. I looked around frantically to find him. I could feel my makeup running down my face, my hair was soaking wet with rain. I looked up to see my love turning the corner away from me. Still in my snow white dress, I took off faster than I have in my entire existence. I yelled out after him through the rain and tears "Puck!" he turned quickly and stopped. As I got closer he took me in his arms and for the first time in a long time, I felt whole.
