"My wedding day"
Heather Flores
July 3rd

It was my birthday today and our wedding day. I was going to become his and he was mine, I would get to wear my beautiful dress, see the love of my life. Say our vows and look each other in the eyes as we say 'I do'.

Instead I was crying beside his lifeless body, clutching his hand. I kept tell him to wake up, to look at me, kiss me and tell me he loves me. He wouldn't move, not at all.

"Heather?" Andrew walks in. "do you want something to eat?" He asks sitting on the other side grabbing Shawn's personal clipboard.

"No" I shake my head looking down at my hand seeing the ring Shawn gave me.

"I'm just gonna do a check up" he says standing up moving his bed to sit him up. "No don't touch him" I yell as he goes to move his hand. He looks at me with pity.

"I'll do it" I nod wiping my tears. "Heather you know you can't" he says softly.

"I can and I will, he's my husband. If anything I'll do a better job of him getting better" I spit taking the clip board. "Heather you're not thinking straight-"

"Not thinking straight?" I scoff. "Because what? It's my birthday? I was supposed to marry the person I love today? Because he won't wake up?" I ask my voice getting louder. I quickly speak up before he can speak.

"I'm a Doctor Andrew, with much more experience than you and better qualifications. Don't fucking tell me I can't do a simple check up on someone I love!" I shove him back but he doesn't move.

"Heather-"

"No shut up! He's mine I can do it" i shout.

"Heather calm down" I get pulled away by arm to see my dad. "Heather shouting could only be making Shawn worse than he is" dad tells me softly.

"So this is my fault?" I ask bitterly. "No that's not what I'm saying-"

"Dad you know it's my birthday today?" I ask abruptly making him nod. "Of course I know Heather, it's also your wedding day" he sighs sadly.

"My wedding day" I say sadly. I feel Andrews hand on my shoulder. "it's okay Heather" he tells me but it makes me tick.

"Okay?" I ask. "I'm here absolutely fine and he's suffering, he's there he can't move! Or talk! I was gonna marry him!" I shout.

"I love him so much this hurts so bad" I cry. "It's hurting dad" I fall in to his arms.

"I can't see Luna, she reminds me off him" I cry louder. "Daddy I can't"

"Sh sh Heather, you're okay" he rubs my back. "I'm not" I sob.

"Wake him up daddy" I plead. I go over to Shawn clutching on to his hand. "Please shawn, you're hurting me. Please" I cry. I put my head against his chest taking in his smell and hearing his heart beat.

I squeeze my eyes shut. "Please" I repeat quietly.

I open my eyes looking up at him. I raise my head so I'm over him. I press my forehead against his nudging my nose against his.

I imagine what he would do if he was awake. He'd miss my nose, rub his large hands over my waist squeezing gently, his lips would brush mine then he'd kiss me slowly. Whispering that he loves me.

"Heather" dad calls. I sniffle then move away from Shawn. "Come on, let me take you home" my dad says taking my hand.

"Let me stay" i plead. "Heather come on, you can go home and shower and eat. See Luna, she's your baby right?" He asks.

"Yeah" I nod. I probably looked like a crazy person. "Yeah" I repeat.

I turn around then lean down kissing Shawn's forehead as I sweep his curly hair back. I leave my lips to linger. "I love you" I kiss him again then leave with my dad.

"Daddy I'm gonna throw up" I hold my stomach running over to the bin. I stay there for a few more seconds then look up the lights were too bright and everything felt so weird.

I stumbled back in to the wall then I feel my head hit the floor and my eyes slowly shut.
