Travis' POV

There she is..the love of my life...walking down the isle, looking beautiful as ever.

Her beautiful white gown with the beautiful bouquet of flowers in her hand, just makes her stunning as she is.

No matter what she wears..she will always be the most beautiful girl in the world.

I watched as she held the arm of her dad, they both made their way to the altar, as they both parted ways.

Eric sat with the other family members as Katelyn carefully walked up on the steps, lifting her skirt a bit to make her walk better.

She was able to walk up the steps, walking to the man she deeply loves....Jeffory.

Yup...the man she loves....wasn't me.

I weakly smiled as I watch the couple looking at each other with loving smiles.

My heart felt like as if it was breaking into a million pieces.

It ached so much to see that this wedding was happening. I've had a crush on Katelyn for so long, ever since high school.

Seeing her happy makes me happy...well..not really.

I was holding back my tears as the wedding continued to go on.

The priest then said, "Speak now or forever hold your peace."

The room was silent as no one wanted to object...not even me.

Katelyn was looking at me in a little confusion.

I quickly smiled at her and nodded, letting her know that I was fine.

She smiled and nodded back.

"If there are no objections, then we may proceed." The priest said.

After a few more sayings, he finally reached to the lines I didn't want to hear. But for the sake of a wedding, I decided to just keep it inside me.

"May we now have the rings please."

The ring bearer handed the rings to the priest as Katelyn and Jeffory slid the rings in each other's fingers.

Everyone clapped while I slowed clapped but trying to keep my fake smile on.

"Do you, Jeffory Goldenheart, take Katelyn Firefist, as your awfully beloved wife?"

"I do." Jeffory answered.

Welp, there goes the tears...here it comes.

"And do you, Katelyn Firefist, take Jeffory Goldenheart, as your awfully beloved husband?"

"I do."

"Then now pronounce you, husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."

Jeffory and Katelyn both lovingly kissed as everyone in the room clapped. All except me.

I tried to hide my reaction but I was too heartbroken to even hide it. I slowly placed my head down as I felt tears started to stream down my cheek.

"Hey, you okay buddy?" Dante patted on my shoulder.

"Y-Yeah..I-I'm fine." I stuttered trying not to show my tears as I quickly wiped my tears and placed a weak smile on my face.

I can tell Dante was still looking at me with pity but I didn't care.

I'm here to support Katelyn no matter what...even if it means getting my heart broken so much. She's already with someone who she deeply loves and cares. They're a happy newlywed couple, best to just break down at home instead in an actual wedding.

Time skip...

The reception was being held in the outdoors, it looked really nice and well set up honestly. We were all waiting for the newlywed couple. 

Many guests were talking and chatting as they were excited to congratulate to Jeffory and Katelyn.

I was just sitting in the corner trying to look happy but it was too hard for me to do. I want to be happy and I'm trying...I guess I just love Katelyn too much to be happy for her marrying some she loves.

As I was just standing around, I saw Aphmau and Aaron walking towards me.

"Hey guys!" I greeted trying it to make myself sound cheerful.

"Hey Travis, you okay?" Aph asked in concern.

"Of course! This Katelyn's big day and everyone's okay."

"Travis, we know you're lying. Dante told us that you were tearing up once they slipped the rings in each other's fingers and when they kissed." Aaron pointed out.

"Those were just tears of joy, Aaron. I'm really happy and I'm fine." I lied. I was never fine ever since Jeffory proposed to Katelyn.

"Well..okay then. If you need anything, just let us know, okay?" Aphmau said.

"Of course."

They both nodded and walked away.

I sighed as I felt myself break down. I was no where near fine or okay. I was upset, mad and stupid...but I can't show it t anyone..not yet atleast.

Katelyn and Jeffory then came out and we all cheered. I tried to cheer as well.

The whole night, everyone just enjoyed the reception, the music, people were congratulating the couple and more.

After I ate in the buffet, I got myself out and walked to an open field which was quite far but a bit close to the party since I didn't want to get too far from the party.

I was sitting on the field looking at the stars for no apparent reason. I just needed to get myself out of the party and have some time for myself.

I stayed there for a few minutes hoping that no one would come looking for me, but that was when felt someone tapped on my shoulder. I flinched a bit and turned my head to see a pair of blue eyes wearing her beautiful wedding gown. It was Katelyn.

"Hey Dork."

"Oh..hi Katelyn."

"What aren't you in the reception? I haven't greeted you yet."

"Oh umm s-sorry..its just..there were so many people congratulating you two that I never got the chance to be able to congratulate you first." I nervously chuckled.

I mean it is true, there were too many of the guests greeting Katelyn and Jeffory.

"Oh well I'm sorry for that."

"Its alright. Congrats on your marriage by the way."

"Oh thanks, Travis. I-I'm really sorry that..this umm..happened. I know how much you loved me the way Jeffory did but-"

"But what? Katelyn nothing's wrong with me. Sure you pushed me away so many times before and always kept hitting me all the time, but that was just because of my weird perverted attitude. I still care for you Katelyn, and even though you're finally gonna spend the rest of your life with him, I'll always love you."

"I-I know..but-"

"Its okay Katelyn," I stood up. "I don't want problems or situations like these happen now. I'm already okay with your decision to be with Jeffory. Now you should go back with your husband, I'll just go home. I'm really tired now."

"You sure?"

"Of course."

She hugged me tight which surprised me.

"Thank you Travis. I'm really sorry for the times I've pushed you. From now on, I promise that we'll be much better than the relationship we have before. We'll be much closer friends."

"Promise to not keep sending me to the hospital." I joked.

She chuckled, "Yeah, I promise."

I smiled and hugged her back. We then pulled away from the hug.

"You should go now, you have a party to continue. I'll go home." I smiled.

"Yeah. See you soon dork."

"See you soon..blueberry."

She softly smiled and gave me one last hug.

We then parted ways: She walked back to the party while I walked to my car and I drove off.

As I drove, I soon released all my sadness and anger out as I cried.

Tears started to fall as I kept crying through the whole drive.

If only Katelyn and I were something more than just friends...but I love her too much to ruin her and Jeffory's relationship.

*sighs* I'm an idiot.
