Dancin' with the marionette Are you happy now
I smiled. He was getting married today. To the girl of his dreams. He went on and on for weeks about her.
"Hey Mitch you'll never guess what." Shane said grinning like a love struck fool
"What Shane?" I asked being polite.
"You know that girl I was telling you about a couple months ago how she is my girl friend?" He said still smiling.
"Yeah?" There was a hopeful tone in my voice.
"Well… She said yes! She's gonna marry me." He said hugging me in one of his bear hugs.
"Well… Congrats?" I was flabbergasted.
I was recalling that memory. That was also the day my prince charming… Well became happy with another woman. "Well anyway help me here." Shane said trying to tie his tie. "You would think after wearing these so much you would know how to tie one…" I giggled tying the tie. You get the very first dance. Well After hers of course." Shane promised. "Thanks." I smiled. "You know. Most people would think I'd pick Nate or Jase to be the best man… I think people are still in shock cause I picked a girl." Shane said thinking of the media.
"Shane Andrew Gray. Do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife. To cherish and love her in sickness and in health. Remind her she beautiful and to aid her in a time of need" The priest said.
"I do." Shane said with a love-sick grin.
"And do you, Amber Taylor Wiftin Take the man to be your lawfully wedded husband. To cherish and to love him in sickness and in health. To stand by him and his choice." the priest asked the bride.
"Yes. I do." She smiled.
"By the power invested in me I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride." The priest seem to have shouted.
All there was were clapping and whistle from there on out. Shane smirked pulling his new wife to him and dipping her down then kissing her. He always went all out when it came to big kisses… She had seen him do that many times.
"Hey Shane." I said softly as I walked into his cabin.
"I'm busy sleeping leave a message and I'll get back to you." Shane muttered from under a pillow somewhere on the little bed.
"Fine. I'll let Amber know your to busy." I muttered. She sent me to get him. She hates me. More then anything.
"Amber?" His head popped up out of the pillows like a prairie dog would.
I laughed and nodded. "Yeah. She's sitting out in the mess hall. She refused to get her heels muddy so that's why I'm here." I said watching Shane jump out of bed and quickly throw on one of his fitting tees and jeans.
"Oh my god thanks. I so have to make it up to you." He said kissing my lightly on the lips. It wasn't weird that he would do that. In fact it was his way of saying I promise to make it up to you.
"Yeah yeah. Go before she finds a bug and screams." I muttered.
I softly smiled as I watched him spin Amber around. He was happy and that's what I wanted. His happiness. Soon his first dance was over he smiled and kissed Amber before her father stepped in to dance with his daughter. "May I?" He said the instant he was by me. "Why not." I said shrugging. He pulled me to the dance floor. "You know… I'm somewhat worried she will find some on better." Shane said quietly to me " What?" I said looking at him while we waltzed away. "Well.. I mean she could have any guy at her finger tips and just tosses me aside…" He said sadly smiling. "Well then you pick your heart up and come find me." I said smiling. "I'm always here for you." I said.
"Shane!" Amber called from the other side of the room. The song we had started dancing to was well over maybe ten minutes ago. She was getting jealous. "I've gotta go." He said hugging me. " See you later alligator.." I kissed his cheek smiling. Then he kissed my cheek. "In a while crocodile. See You sis." He said heading off to his wife.
"You're like a sister to me Mitch. You always will be," Shane said smiling. He was not maybe nine months into dating Amber. He was having a mental breakdown… I never found out why…
"Good cause you're the brother I've never wanted but will always love." I grinned.
"Thanks…" he muttered before hugging me. "I've gotta go."
"Yes go play famous popstar." I smiled before shoving out of my apartment door.
I heard her say something about having to go to the bathroom really quick and followed me out. "Listen. Just cause you're his best friend gives you no right to kiss him or even touch him. He is off the market and mine. So Back off bitch." Amber said glaring at me as I attempted to get past her. She only tripped me. When I stood up I glared right back at her. "Listen bitch. I was only being myself. Hell my feelings for Shane will always be there but now I'm just taking what I get even if it mean I have to freaking deal with you every day for the rest of my life." I spat at her before turning and leaving. "Right go on slut walk away. Cause it's the only thing you can do!" She yelled after me. I felt like I was dealing with Tess all over again that one year at camp.
I must have downed at least one bottle of wine when I got home. I groaned just pulling off my heels then plopping down onto my ratty looking couch. "Shane…" I muttered before I grabbed my guitar which was sitting on my coffee table… I coulda swore it was over on it's stand… Maybe Nate dropped by and borrowed it to seduce Caity… Most likely… There was a loud moan coming from her room. I'm staying in the living room as they enjoyed there sex lives. I hummed a song before picking it up on my guitar before singing a little piece. "Dancin' with the marionette Are you happy now?" I sang before giving up for the night. I just wanted to go to bed. When I had got up and had to pass the open door which a sweaty Nate and Caitlyn laid covered by little blankets. "Night guys." I yelled to them as I shielded my eyes. I didn't wanna see them right now. "Night." They both said breathlessly.
"OH MY GOD! GUESS WHAT!" Caitlyn said yelling as she ran into the kitchen.
"Um… Nate Asking you to be his girlfriend?" I guessed.
"YES! Wait how did you know?"
"It's very oblivious to everyone that you to are like meant to be." I said smiling
I pulled my knee high black dress that now had a large hole in it from that bitch and just laid down. I didn't feel like getting my night clothes in fact I didn't feel like anything. I kinda felt like a marionette. I smiled to my self. Shane is happy. As long as he was Happy I'm sure I'll be happy.
Guess who's reediting Happy again! Xp gosh I really dispise my icky grammar and spelling... :/
Side not: I changed Amber's last name... but it's okay she won't be in the story for long. Xp
