"I can't do this.." Nick said, raising his hands and holding them around his head.
Carla stood up and rushed after him, grabbing his hand as he made his way towards the door as all the wedding guests watched.
"Nick." Her voice sounded broken as she said his name. "Please." she begged.
"I can't trust you anymore.. I just can't." he said as her eyes began to fill with even more tears.
"This is all part of the same mistake and.."
"Carla, you gamble nearly your whole life away, you drink and drink and... you lie to my face." Nick angrily said as nothing but hate filled his eyes.
"But.. I thought you were cool with that" She cried.
He turned and was beginning to walk away. She grabbed his hand again and tried to pull him back. She was desperate. She tried to pull him into her arms but instead, he turned around and gave her a hard shove making her fall backwards.
The guests in the room gasped in shock.
"I'm not cool with any of that, Carla! Get that into your stupid head!" he yelled at her as he slid his wedding ring from his finger and threw it to the ground beside her.
"Carla, are you okay?!" Johnny came rushing to his daughters side as he knelt down beside her on the floor. She picked up her Nicky's ring and then noticed she had torn her dress when she fell.
Carla watched as the door of the Bistro slammed shut as Nick walked out and she began to sob into Johnny's shoulder.
After she had calmed down a little, Johnny helped his daughter up and Michelle took her hand and they walked over to the table. The table where Nick had done half of his speech. The table where she had sat at and thought that everything was going to be okay. The table where Nick had realised he couldn't trust her anymore.
She sat down and stared into space.
"Carla babe talk to me please" Michelle begged.
Another tear ran down her cheek.
"I need to get out of here" Carla said, as she took her keys.
"Come back to the Rovers" Michelle tried to persuade her she shouldn't be on her own.
Carla stood up and shook her head. "No. Everybody, just leave me alone." she said as she stormed out.
She was sitting in her car when she saw the woman who had destroyed everything standing at the other side of the road. She turned her keys and the engine started. Carla revved her engine and Tracy turned and stepped out onto the cobbled road.
Carla drove her car at speed towards Tracy and at the last minute, she swerved away from her. A truck came around the corner at the same time and both vehicles swerved.
Carla was now speeding towards the post box but someone appeared coming out of the shop. She tried her break as quickly as she could but it wasn't enough. She had hit whoever it was as the truck went flying into the Platt's.
"Carla!" Johnny yelled as he rushed towards the car. He tried desperately to open the door but it wouldn't budge. "Aidan, help me!"
Eventually, they got the door open and helped Carla out. "Are you okay?!"
A small crowd had now gathered, the look of shock on all of their faces. Roy included.
"I'm fine.." Carla said quietly as she realised what had happened.
"I hit someone.." she began to panic as she moved away from Johnny and went to the side of her car.
Nothing could've prepared her for what she saw next.
The person was lying between her car and the shop and they looked lifeless. Carla went closer and when she realised who the person was, she put her hands up to her mouth and began to howl as she dropped down to her knees beside them.
"I'm sorry, Nick. Please be okay.." she sobbed. "I love you"
