''Cut out my eyes and leave me blind''
…
Santana was stood in her hotel room wearing her wedding dress; her mascara had smudged from the tears falling from her eyes. Of course she loved Jake, he was perfect; he loved her, he would never cheat or lie, her parents approved of him but something didn't feel right. She wasn't sure if everything she was feeling now were pre-wedding nerves or her conscience telling her she was making the biggest mistake of her life. The thought of saying her vows in front of close family and friends didn't bother her but the thought of marrying the wrong person did. She took a deep breath before wiping the remainder of the mascara marks from her cheeks before reapplying it.
''You're marrying a person who loves you and who you love back'' she repeatedly told herself hoping she would convince herself she was doing the right thing.
''They're ready for you'' Mr Lopez said opening the door, ''San are you okay?'' He had obviously noticed the tear stained cheeks on his only daughter.
''Papa'' she said tightly hugging him, ''am I making a mistake marrying Jake?''
Mr Lopez paused for a moment, ''of course not sweetie, if you're happy we're happy; if you don't want to go through with the wedding we won't be angry. Of course me and your mom will be a little disappointed but we wouldn't want you to do something you're not one hundred percent happy with. He lets go of her and wipes her eyes, ''now let's get this show on the road if that's what you want.''
Santana weakly smiles and looks in the mirror for one last time, she thinks about her fiancé and his family, her future family in law sat downstairs waiting for them to be husband and wife. ''Papa this isn't a show this is the biggest day of my life! And marrying Jake is what I want'' she says, while linking her dads arm with hers before walking out of the room.
…
The spiral staircase looks a lot longer than Santana remembers as she walks down the stairs with her father; all eyes are on both of them while the guests wait at the bottom, Jake with them. Mrs Lopez wipes a tear from her eye when she sees her daughter looking beautiful in a white princess style wedding dress that trailed across the floor when she walked. She was wearing a tiara that sparkled when the light through the light through the hotel window caught it. Mr Lopez was also trying to hold back the tears as he gave his daughter away. Jake's eyes lit up when he saw his wife to be walk down the stairs; he couldn't believe how striking she looked. When they had first met it was her good looks that caught his attention but once he got to know her he realised it was her personality that made him fall in love with her. She had a hard exterior but once she let her walls down he discovered that she wasn't as uncaring as he once thought.
