Last Minute Regrets

Can't You Realize That I Love You?

I stared at my reflection and let out a long and slow breath. I watched as my chest rose and fell with every breath I forced myself to take. The diamonds on my neck sparkled with every movement and I blinked. I was scared I admitted to myself as I stood up and paced the large room. My hands shook as I tried to push down the puffy white wedding dress I wore and I was suddenly aware of the many people in the building.

I was getting married today. Married. It was so permanent.

I glanced at the veil sitting on the table besides me and pushed it to the ground. I didn’t want to see this. I didn’t want to look at the wedding dress I wore with its diamonds towards the bottom. I didn’t want to hear another time how beautiful it looked. The dressing room was set up for a princess, but instead I felt like a prisoner. I wondered how Kai was dealing with this. Did they have to lock him in his room so he wouldn't run away? Maybe he was already gone and no one had told me?

There was a quiet knock on the door and I wondered who it was this time. The makeup artist? The tailor? Another person to give their congratulations? Or even worse, my mother? I pulled the door open only to have the fake smile on my face completely disappear.

“What are you doing here?” I whispered.

“I couldn’t… I couldn’t not come see you. I’ve been calling you” Daehyun whispered as he moved forward and I stood my ground blocking him.

“I know, but there’s really nothing to say” I said past the lump in my throat, “I’m getting married in less than a half hour and you said it yourself, we should move on”

"Can I come in?" He asked softly.

"No, you need to go" I said with fake determination.

“I made a mistake” He insisted as he pushed his way in and shut the door with a thud.

“No you didn’t, it was stupid for me to tell you to wait for me and you were right in not doing so” I said firmly, reaching behind him to open the door. He really needed to go.

"She was just a friend you know. That was all she was Hyerim. I love you and these past few weeks have been hell for me and I realized… I’d rather wait than not have you at all” He confessed and I froze.

"I'm serious Daehyun get out. You can't suddenly burst in saying this stuff" I said urgently, trying to move past him.

"Nothing about this is sudden! I've always loved you and you've always known that. Hyerim, it took me so long to realize this... don't push me away now" He pleaded.

I stayed quiet as he stepped closer. My heart raced as I looked up at him, longing to say so many things yet forcing myself to stay quiet. He lowered his head slightly and I turned my head away.

"Please go" I pleaded.

"I can't do that after all the time it took me to decide this. I love you and... I know you love me too" He insisted, pulling me into his arms and holding me tightly.

I think my arms moved on their own. I could only keep them down for so long before they broke free and wrapped around him tightly. This was what I should be feeling on my wedding day I told myself as I felt a feeling of happiness spread in my body. We stayed like that for a few moments and I tried to tell myself to pull away, that it was selfish to ask him to wait for me, but I couldn't let go.

“Let’s run away” I whispered as he pressed his cool lips on my neck and I shuddered.

“…What?” He whispered as he pulled back and stared at me.

“Let’s go. Right now. Please” I insisted, tangling my fingers in his hair and placing my forehead against his.

“Alright” He whispered.

This was what I should have done to begin with. He pulled the door open and I followed him out hand in hand.

“We’ll take the stairs I took to sneak in” He whispered as he pulled me along. I smiled and ran faster.
