JPOV

You took her away this weekend.

A romantic getaway…you thought it would be perfect for the proposal.

I feel you slipping away from me.

My chance with you drifting further and further away.

Then I remind myself that I never had a chance to begin with.

It's after midnight on Saturday when the phone rings.

I can hear the excitement in your voice.

"She said yes Jazz!" you nearly shout through the phone.

My heart shatters, but my voice conveys my happiness for the both of you.

We make plans…to celebrate once you get home.

But it's you're final question that kills me.

"So what do you say Jasper…" you ask. "Will you be my best man?"
