-3rd Person POV-

It was a long day for Roseanne. Meetings with investors, local artists, visiting some of the cafes. Things were hectic, but the blonde was thankful to be busy, because being busy meant not having to think about the upcoming wedding.

"You're late."

"What are you doing here?" Roseanne sighs, eyeing Lisa questioningly.

"I just wanted to give you one last push."

"Huh?"

"Rosie...her wedding is in a week."

"I know."

"Then why are you just.."

"Lisa." Roseanne interrupts, "Please...I'm tired, it's been a long day. There's no point in me telling Jen about how I feel about her. It'll just hurt her...to know. I'd rather stay in our little bubble."

"But what if she does?" Lisa looks at Roseanne like she knows something the blonde doesn't.

"If she did..then don't you think I would have realized it? I don't think I'm as oblivious as Jen."

"So you're just going to stop then?"

"I've already let her go a long time ago."

"Oh bullshit. We both know you haven't, because if you did..you wouldn't look so broken still. Just tell her Rosie even if...."

"I ALREADY SAID NO." Roseanne shouts, tired of everything.

"Fine." Lisa shakes her head, "I'll drop it...but just one week Rosie..that's all you have before you lose your chance for good."

"I know." Roseanne says in a small voice, "I know."

"How'd it go?" Jisoo asks as soon as Lisa enters their condo.

"She's made up her mind." Lisa sighs, plopping onto the couch next to her girlfriend, laying her head on Jisoo's lap.

"Well then, there's nothing else we can do."

"But if Je.."

"She was drunk." Jisoo interrupts, "She didn't even remember anything she told me the next day."

"Yeah..but drunk words speak sober truths."

"Yes, but it was also years ago...before she met Rene."

"I just don't want Rosie to be hurting anymore."

"Don't worry..she'll be okay one day..Rosie is strong."

-Rosie's POV-

"It's finally tomorrow." I whisper, watching as the sun begins to set over the horizon, "Tomorrow."

"Yep." I hear her voice, "Hi."

"What are you doing here?" I ask, not paying her any attention.

"I don't know...I just thought you might be here."

"Looking for me Ms. Kim?"

"Not really." She answers, and I finally turn my attention to her.

"Nervous?"

"Very." She says, twiddling with her ring.

"Hmm..I think I know how I can fix that, come."

"Why are we here?" She asks, realizing that I took her to the venue.

"Just wait here." I smile, running down the altar.
