Today...

Right here....

Right now.......

It's my 20ᵗʰ birthday, Today is also my wedding day, To a man I barely know..... A man I don't even love. It's been four years since that night, The night my fiance almost killed the love of my life, right in front of my eyes...

I haven't seen Bruno in years, Edgar wouldn't let me leave his house, I've been locked up all these years, and today is the start of a life of entrapment....

My life of entrapment

I sigh as I lay in my bathtub, my friends waiting behind the door. I scrub my bruised arms and legs, I think you can tell who caused them.... It's my husband to be of course, I feel so stuck here..... Oh the things I would do to be in Bruno's arms again after all these years., Even if it was just for a second.......I miss him so much....

"Y/N! Cmon! Time to get dressed!" I hear Pepa say from behind the door, "Ok..." I squeak, I pull my weak body out of the warm waters grasp, I wrap a warm towel around my dripping body. As I look at myself in the mirror, all I see are my deep dark eye bags, they've been there for years, but they seem to have gotten darker.

My hope of running away is completely drained, there is no hope for me, I'm stuck here, with Edgar...... Forever.....I sigh and step out of the bathroom, "Oh don't look so upset! It's your wedding day! Cmon, let's get you into your fancy outfit" Pepa cheers as she drags me out of the bathroom,"Here put this on, if you need anything, just holler! " she says as she leaves the room.

I sigh.... Again, thinking about everything, My father, Bruno, Edgar-just everything, I can't believe it's all over for me, this is how my story is going to end, I never thought this is how I'd end up, But here I am..... Like a cow waiting to be slaughtered.

I sit down in front of the vanity, staring at myself in the mirror, where did it all go wrong? What did I do wrong? This is all my fault, if I never snuck way with Bruno that night, this never would have happened.

I feel tears prick my eyes, "What did I do? What's wrong with me!? I tried to be good! Am I just not good enough? I tried to be a good daughter! What did I do wrong? I'm sorry...... I'm sorry.... I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry-" "Y/N? Are you doing alright in there?" I hear Julietta outside the door.

"Y-yeah, I'm alright" I say, whiping the tears from my cheeks, "Ok, I was just making sure!" she says, I hear her walk away, my (wedding attire) fits snuggly, I look amazing, but I don't feel amazing.

Knock knock!

"Can I come in?" It's my father, I sigh, "Yep", he steps in, I don't even turn to look at him, I just sit there looking at him in the mirror. As he looks at me, a smile starts to form on his face, "Look at you! My first born! It feels like just yesterday you where so small! And now I'm about to walk you down the isle!" he hugs my shoulders.

"Now come on, it's time!" I stand up, I haven't said a single word, all I can do is stare forward, I haven't had a real emotion since that night, I can't disappoint anybody, I need to be perfect, if I'm not then who am I? If I'm not perfect, then everything goes wrong! And I won't let that happen again! Even if it means I'll lose myself.

He wraps his arm around mine, "You'll do great" he whispers, I just stay neutral, as usual. The music kicks in, the doors swing open to reveal a church full of people, everyone except Bruno, I guess I should've expected that. My father gentley drags me towards the alter, Edgar is standing there, with a smug grin, he knows exactly what he's doing to me.
