"You better not ruin this wedding"

In an angry tone, Grace, an 18yrs old 2nd year student in a very beautiful and long wedding gown said to her groom, Toby. It was their wedding day.

"Look, today is supposed to be a special day for us, it should be ABOUT US" adding more emphasis to the "about us" with a sassy facial expression trying to make it very clear to Toby that he doesn't have to make sure everywhere is perfect, as far as they both loved each other and declared their eternal love on the altar, it would be perfect enough. I mean, isn't that what a wedding is about?

"I'm sorry sweetheart," Toby said with a nervous look as he walked closer to Grace and held her hands really tight.

" I just want the wedding to be perfect for us, you know I love you", he said as he lowered his head trying to reach for her lips , he was 6 '1 and Grace was 5' 5. so some stretching was needed to make their lips dance together.

"And besides I'm super rich" he paused as his head was about to touch her face as he gave a sly grin.

"So I want to make today the best for everyone in every freaking way" he added as he proceeded to land the kiss but Grace didn't move or try to react.

She stared straight into his eyes as she slowly called his name repeatedly , "Toby, Toby, Toby!!"

Toby's brows furrowed as he moved his head back in confusion and he held her cheeks(face cheeks) tightly and asked "what's wrong babe?"

But Grace never responded back as she kept calling his name "Toby, we are late, Toby wake up dude". She said with a straight face as she stood still.

Immediately, Toby's eyes widened as he walked away from her and fell on his back, he was about to cry

"No! , don't tell me!, this..this can't be No No No!

*thud*

the sound of a pillow landing on Toby's face as he laid on his bed.

"Wake up dude, or we are gonna be very late for class this time".

Clint, Toby's roommate and coursemate who had just brought Toby out of his perfect luxurious wedding fantasy with his forever Crush kept throwing pillows at him as he tried to wake him up.

"Urrrgh", A voice from under the pillow groaned as he pushed the pillow off him..

"Okay, I'm up." He said to Clint as he walked straight into the bathroom

He then stared at a big but broken mirror in his bathroom wall with evident disappointment in his eyes.

" I hardly get to dream or even dream about anything close to perfect like that.. it's always a blank sleep every night or night mares a few times" he muttered as he picked up his toothbrush…

"Why did I have to wake up from this one? '' he added as his face brightened up a little as he remembered Grace scolding him for doing too much on their wedding. He was blushing while thinking about it. He was lost in his imagination as his brain tried to create a continuation of the dream starting from the kiss of course.

*Bang*

There was a hit on the door as Clint said from behind it said "we're really late bro, so I'm gonna go without you, hurry up so you can meet up for the next lecture at least"…he said as he left the room

Toby who had just came back to reality again just when he was about to kiss Grace once more just stared at the mirror with a deep frown but slowly let out a sigh as he applied toothpaste to his tooth brush and placed it in his mouth

"I ghate skchul" he said as he slowly started brushing.

Toby is an 18yrs old 2nd year college student, He is 6'1, handsome nerdy and really shy guy with an introverted nature. Most of the times, he lives in his own imagination like many other quiet and reserved young adults

LIKES:: video games, books about self growth, music, alone time,meaningful conversation with people he is close to, writing, cooking and ofcourse, Grace.

DISLIKES: Social events, class presentations.

BIGGEST HATES:: Loud people with narcissistic traits.

He lives in a little apartment owned by his uncle, his uncle is one of the richest and he owns lots of estates and houses so luckily for Toby, his accommodation in school was free, he eventually got two roommates who stayed together with him in his little apartment.

Grace on the other hand was girl Toby picked interest in from his first year in school. Not just beautiful in looks, but character also, She is a 5'5 dark skinned and beautiful young girl at age 18 too, she was friendly to all and possessed an extroverted nature.

She was also a 2nd year student and Toby's neighbor.

"Tch, I'm gonna be late for the second class too, why can't they just go inside!" Toby said in annoyance as he looked through his window watching Grace and some neighbors talk and laugh together.

He needed to head to school already but ofcourse there was no way he would walk in front of them and greet them all, he had been waiting for 30mins until it became clear that they had no intention of ending their conversation and going a way..

"I have to go, what do I do" he asked him self as he looked around searching for a distraction.

"Aha, thank goodness " He said as his face brightened up, he walked towards his small reading desk as he reached for his earphones and plugged them in his ears playing the loudest music he could find.

"Here goes nothing" he said as he gave a brief sigh and walked out of his apartment not looking at any of his neighbors including Grace

"Just look at your phone and get lost in the song as you walk past them, you can do this!" He said to himself as he walked straight ignoring everything around him.

"Umm, hey tob-" Garce, who noticed Toby walk by tried to greet him but noticed how 'busy' he was with his phone, so she stopped as she just stared as he walked past them.

Ofcourse if Grace wasn't there, he would've at least said "hey" to them but whenever she's around him, he loses control of his senses and can't think straight.

With counting steps and sweaty palms he finally walked past them and headed straight to a bus stop to get to class.

Toby and Grace have been neighbors since their first years till date and he still still didn't have the courage to accept these feelings and make a move. All he could do was stare and avoid at all cost.

As Toby got off the bus to head to class, he gave a relaxed sigh.

"I hope today goes well" he said as he proceeded to move forward.

Immediately, a small and soft hand locked his palm. "Hey, my little baby".

A short, beautiful and busty girl said as she looked at him with a cute smile.

"Oh, hey Isabel". Toby said as he smiled back and together they walked into the classroom
