And This Is What She Said

"AND THIS IS WHAT SHE SAID" "it scares me Eddie. I'd drop everything I have here just to be with you." "look," I said, I can't stop you from getting married, to be honest I'm not sure why you'd want to but whatever. don't you think it'd be a good idea to come and see me before you get married?" "that's just it," she replied. "I know I should but I'd want to stay there, in your arms, just knowing I beat every girl that pushed you away. I'd feel like I'd won but at what cost?" "this has gone on since we've been kids, only now we can control it. no one to stop us and if it doesn't happen now, it'll never happen. ongoing for twenty years," I said. that was the last thing she had read, the last thing she had said and then, silence. yesterday I saw her pictures. yesterday I saw her as a wife. yesterday she'd send pictures of her and her new husband in bed. the caption wrote: FIRST BREAKFAST IN BED AS HUSBAND AND WIFE. obviously this was a mass picture message that had went out. it was then I got the message: "I'm here with him but I can't stop thinking about you. I still love you, I always have Eddie." I gave no reply. she married this poor fool to forget me. I was there, with her, while she said her vows, while she cut her cake, while she danced, while she gave him her pussy. if she was to be judged on her actions, getting married to forget me would've made her the victor. she mentioned the cost of her love but in getting a good- night-I-love-you message from her on her honeymoon, it was clear to see, price was no object.
