Jake
The moment Laura mentioned Chloe's name, my heart stopped. My body went rigid, and a wave of dread washed over me. Of all people, it had to be her? I couldn't believe she had weaseled her way into Laura's life, into our wedding planning, no less. I knew Chloe well enough to understand this was no coincidence.
She planned it out well, and would stop at nothing to pull Laura and I apart, just to have me all to herself. I can't have that happen. She's married to my worst rival, and even if she wasn't, I still can't be with her. She's not Laura, and I only want Laura…
Laura tilted her head, noticing my reaction. "Jake? You okay?" She suddenly said while I blinked, finally snapping out of my trance. "Oh, yeah. Sorry, I was just… thinking about something I forgot to take care of at work." I quickly replied.
Laura gave me a puzzled look but nodded. "Everything alright? It's pretty late for work, don't you think?"
