《♡~Garrence One Shots~♡》Watching You Dance
Advertisement
I fixed my pasture as music began to play, echoing throughout the room. The large doors opened, and revealed one of my best friends. She looks absolutely gorgeous... Her brown hair was curled at the bottom, the soft twirls bouncing everytime she stepped. Her eyes glimmered with joy as she walked down the aisle. The dress she had chosen fit her perfectly, and her veil that nested gently in her hair sparkled from the glitter sprinkled in it. She looked beautiful...
I turned to face the groom, who just so happened to be my best friend. He looked... amazing... His hair was gelled in all the right places, his suit hugged the right parts of his body and made him look sharp. His tie complimented his ocean eyes nicely. He looked so handsome... And I was happy for him.
His eyes shined with excitement as he watched Kim walk towards the altar. You could see the love and passion in his eyes... They were perfect for each other, there was no doubt about it.
Tears glossed over my eyes as I smiled at how the two looked at each other. They were both so happy... Garroth had this passionate and loving look in his eyes as he stared at Kim with such admiration. The only thing is...
I wish he looked at me like that...
The tears that fell down my cheeks appeared as tears of joy, but were just in disguise. My heart that supposedly 'melted' was shattered to pieces. I had liked, no, Garroth for years now... And now I was watching him get married.
My grin grew as the two recited their vows, more tears spilling over the corners of my eyes. I had to choke back all of the sobs in my throat.
But I had to be happy for him...

"Alrighty folks.It's that time. Can the wonderful new couple please step out onto the dance floor for the first dance?" The DJ's voice boomed out over the speakers. I froze and turned to the large wooden floor in the center of the room. Everyone applauded as two figures stepped onto the floor, hand in hand with large smiles on their faces.
I watched them step into the center of the floor. Garroth placed his hands on Kim's waist, and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Slow music began to play over the speakers as they began to sway and twirl around the floor, staring deeply into one another's eyes.
Tears trailed down my cheeks like rivers as I watched the man I loved most dance with another, staring into her eyes with nothing but love and compassion. I always had dreams exactly like this, but I was always in his arms... Not Kim. I wished I could be there, right next to him. I wish he held me close to his chest and kissed the top of my head gently as we spun around the floor. I would do anything for that...
But... Garroth looked so happy. All I've ever wanted was for him to be happy... Seeing him like this always made me feel so warm inside. I just wish he was this happy with me...
I bit my lip as I swallowed back painful sobs. My entire heart felt like a deep, endless void. It hurt seeing them so happy... It really, really hurt....
"I'm watching you dance, but...

Parallels
Parallels are a constant in life. Our friends' lives often run parallel to ours; we share similar experiences or tastes- perhaps even both. Sometimes, however, opposites attract- and our lives run perpendicular. In that case, we are not attracted by similarities; rather, we are attracted to the differences in others. So, what happens when two parallels are broken apart? What might happen to them? Are they forever doomed to run alongside each other, never seeing one another, never meeting? Or, perhaps, might they be spun about? Could these lines that formerly ran alongside one another meet? Could they possibly be set perpendicular? Any feedback is welcome, so long as it is constructive. Also, you may not use any characters, ideas, places, or what have you that I present here without my explicit permission. A note: This is a story which I began over a year ago, but never got around to finishing- it feels about time to really get it going. Now, there are a couple of things about the story, and myself, that need to be said. First and foremost, there's a slow start, but by the third-fourth chapter things should be speeding up a bit. Secondly, in regards to release speed and/or word count per chapter, I make no promises- my schedule is fairly random, and in regards to word count, I will cut off any chapter at any point that feels appropriate to me- that may include cliffhangers, if necessary. I'm not trying to reach a specific word count, I am trying to create a cohesive story, with pseudo-appropriate chapter breaks. This means I will also not rush a half-baked release for the sake of getting a release out. Thirdly, I will make any edits, anywhere in the story and at any time, that strike me as necessary- typically being wording and/or formatting changes, but I may also decide to change major plot points- in that case I would put a notification in the next chapter released. Finally, and most importantly, I am a Christian; this story is intended to at least moderately reflect those values. So, if you particularly dislike any of these things, feel free to look elsewhere, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. God bless, friends.
