Addie couldn't even focus on anything else right now. She had wanted to hear him say her name for so long. She started to walk towards him but Matt tightened his hold on her.
"You let her go." Seth said angrily.
"Remember what dirt I have on you." Matt said.
She wanted to be brave enough to face it no matter what. Brave enough to go to the one she truly loved. But the fear in her heart stopped her. She didn't want people to know the awful thing she said.
"Addie you better stop him or your career will be over."
"Okay okay let me go so I can."
She walked up to Seth and hugged him tightly. She wasn't supposed to do that. She hadn't meant to do that. But she wanted this moment one more time.
"Addie go ahead and tell her our news. I was nice enough to allow to break the story so you wouldn't have too. But you can tell them and your former friends as well."
Addie saw Roman, The Uso's and Naomi approaching. She let go of Seth though she didn't want to.
"Umm Matt and I are getting married."
Their shocked and disgusted expressions coupled with Matt's smug one were almost too much for Addie.
"Addie don't do that. Not again." Seth said looking into her eyes.
"I loved Matt and have always wanted him to marry me. I know it's hard for you to understand. But I will do anything to keep him happy."
"Because he will hit you if you don't." Dean said
"You know what's going to happen if you marry him. He has something over you doesn't he?"
"Addie and I are becoming married next week inside the ring. We cleared it with them today.
Next week was the words that were sickening to her. She could see the same looks on the faces of all her friends.
Seth stepped forward to Matt.
"Seth please don't. I don't want you to get in trouble. Please just do this for me. I wouldn't be doing it without a good reason." She whispered.
What reason could she possibly have for that? Addie stepped back to Matt.
"Guys you're going to all get in trouble and I don't want that. We will just go." She tugged on Matt who for once did what she asked. But not before returning a smirk towards her friend.
"She can't be marrying him. She just can. If she does then he has an even greater hold on her than he already did. I can't let her go through with it. Something is wrong with her I know there is. She is scared. I can tell. I know her.
Addie had spent the rest of the week crying hysterically. Why had she said those damn words? She could have been happy right now. This wedding, her wedding was something she wanted no part in. Marrying Matt had been on her mind for years. But not now. He had even picked out her wedding gown for her. She didn't want to be his wife. He'd forced an engagement ring on her finger. He planned to later switch it out for a wedding ring. A ring she didn't want at all. They had met the supposed "pastor" Matt had gotten to do their wedding.
He had her put in a private locker room to get ready. She put on the white dress and the veil and did her makeup all on her own. Her wedding day and she was completely alone. She surveyed her reflection not knowing why she even cared what she looked like. She looked unhappy and defeated. Weren't you supposed to be happy on your wedding day?
But then she wasn't marrying a man she loved. She was setting herself up for a lifetime of abuse and pain. All because she couldn't keep her mouth shut and had made a mistake. She had been through so much and gotten so close to what she wanted. Happiness. And she had allowed it to take her again. After all the times she'd stood up for herself it had come to this. She was right back where she started. With a man who didn't really love her. He couldn't love her with the way he was treating her.
How many times she'd wanted this wedding. Be careful what you wish for. She had it and now she didn't want it.
"Hello future wifey."
She couldn't hide her disgust at seeing him.
"Now I know they say its bad luck to see each other before the wedding. But I didn't care. I had to see my future bride. I am so thrilled you said yes. Though you wouldn't have been able to say no anyway."
"Come on what's with that face? You know how long you wanted us to get married? Well you're getting your wish now. We are going to be spending the rest of our lives together."
"Go to hell"! She spat.
He grabbed her arm roughly and reared back his fist but stopped himself. They were about to go out in public so he couldn't hit her. He smirked.
"Now is that anyway to talk to your husband? Honey don't be trying to get us in a fight when were about to go out there and wed. Aren't chicks usually happy about their wedding? You better be. Try to smile a little will you?"
"I hate you."
"You know what? You're in this mess because you're a whore and a shitty girlfriend. You're a horrible person and a horrible wrestler. You're worthless too. No one else wants you. Your friends will hate you if they ever learn the truth. Your ex-boyfriend will hate you. They will be disgusted when they learn the truth about you. But thanks to this they want be. You will be the pretty little bride who becomes my wife. Because let's face it I am the only one who will ever want you. Soon enough they will all loose interest in you.
They will move on and forget you ever existed. Kane has so they will too. See you out there."
He kissed her on the cheek and left her alone. She burst into tears and got on her knees.
"Kane I need your help."
Kane looked at Seth in confusion.
"What could you possibly won't or need my help with? Does it have something to do with the wedding tonight."
"Yes it does."
"Seth I know we've had our differences but I don't know what we would have to discuss. I'm trying to get over her now."
"That's great Kane but the thing is I'm not over her. I never will be. And I need your help. You don't have to love her anymore. In fact I would kind of rather you didn't anyway. But if you do care about her at all. Please help me help her. That's all I'm asking."
"I will consider what you have to say."
