 Love lost, Love gained – Part one

Alice walked up to the door that would lead her to a very happy person.

She just could not believe that this day had come, if someone had asked her 5years ago if she thought this person would be doing what she was about to do she would have laughed in their face and said never. But the day had come and she had never been happier. Her friend, her best friend deserved all the happiness she could get.

“Hey Shane, it’s me.”  Alice said as she knocked on the door. Waiting patiently for her to open the door, she thought back to what she had planned to say for her speech at the reception. She could not wait for her friends reactions. Smiling Alice knocked again. “Yo! Yoda open the door.”
Alice frowned and looked at her watch. Growing a little concerned she banged on the door harder. “Shane! Oi Shane, open the damn door!”

She was about to shout again when she heard a muffled curse come from inside. “I know your there; open the door.” Alice lowered her voice “Please Shane, just open the door.”

Shane opened the door and walked slowly back to sit on the bed. Alice shut the door and followed her in. “you nearly ready Shane? And what took you…” she trailed off as she saw the look on Shane’s face. She stopped where she was, looking around the room and the bag packed next to Shane.

“I thought you were staying here for a few more days, you know honeymoon and all?” Alice looked confused.

Shane shook her head looking down at the floor. “I can not do this Alice.” She whispered.

Alice made her way over and sat in front of her. “I know you are scared, heck anyone would be, it’s a big commitment. But you love Carmen anyone could see that, any fool could see how much you both love each other.”

“I cheated on her Alice that is not love.”
