Colby's POV

Me and Sam were making our way towards the east side of the hotel.

Our feet begging us not to run as we walked as fast as we possibly could.

Our legs burning with every step.

My lungs shutting down it felt like as I my anxiety was through the roof.

I was hoping that what had happened hadn't of happened.

Sam had showed me a text he got from Kat.

"We came to help Ronnie get ready but she isn't in her room. We have had security search all over the east side but there is no sight of her, come quickly please"

She wouldn't of just left.

She wouldn't do that to me.

She promised that she wouldn't leave me.

We came to the elevator at the end of the long hall that was lined with numbers and doors.

The bell dinged and the doors slid open.

We stepped in and I repeatedly battered the button for the levels,

"Calm down, they will find her" Sam said as he placed a hand on my shoudler.

I couldn't speak.

I didn't want to.

If I spoke,

It meant that I would have to speak about the situation.

I didn't want there to be a situation.

I don't want to accept the fact that I wasn't good enough.

I couldn't accept the fact that she had left me stranded on our wedding day.

I refused to believe that she didn't love me.

Because everything I felt was real.

I felt loved.

The elevator opened and i sprinted down the hall.

399.. 399.. 399.

I haulted as I came to the door.

Fearing to open it.

I swung the door open to see all of my friends.

Our friends,

"How long has she been gone?" I asked as my voice started to break,

"We got here around 10 minutes ago" Kat spoke up.

It seemed as though they feared me.

They feared that I would break.

I would be fine as soon as I found Ronnie.

I need Ronnie,

"Let me be for just a minute" I say to the group as my head falls to the floor in defeat.

They all look amongst each other and whisper,

"Please" i add as reasurance.

They walk out and close the door.

As the lock clicks,

My lungs give out.

I cry out a god awful scream.

My throat burned and my vision was blurred.

She left me.

Ronnie left me.

I hunched over on my knees, my stomach turning.

I felt sick.

How could I be so fooled.

She didn't love me.

How could she?

How didn't I notice it sooner.

I was so oblivious.

It seemed as though she was happy.

She loved me just as much as I loved her it seemed.

I still loved her.

I wanted her to love me.

So much was running through my mind right now.

I couldn't think.

I gathered all my energy and staggered to my shaking heels.

I took a deep breath and wiped my tears.

My burning eyes stung.

My lungs wouldn't give up,

I just hoped that they would.

I walked over to her vanity.

Examining what she left behind.

Her hairbrush.

Her favourite lipstick.

The whole room reminded me of her which only made this reality worse.

Her perfume calmed the burning sensation I felt all over.

I stood up and walked to the window beside the bed.

Her dress hung up against the wardrobe.

This was the first I was seeing it.

I wasn't supposed to see it until she walked down the aisle.

But I doesn't look like our dream was happening anytime soon.

Well,

My dream.

I sat down on the bed and pulled off my tie.

Wrapping it around my hand.

I couldn't feel the blood pumping through my veins and my fingertips begging to burst open.

I sighed and calmed myself.

I sat for a few moments.

Taking in the situation.

I had to stay strong.

For my friends,

My family.

For myself.

I lifted my head from my shameful posture.

Looking over to the dresser.

A note.

I jumped up and snatched it off of the white stained wood.

My hands shaking and reading the scribbles.

These words ruined everything.

She didn't leave me.

It wasn't her fault.

And it wasn't mine,

"Sam!" I cried out as I ran to the door.

Flinging it open to see everyone gathered.

I held out the note and Sam grabbed it.

Everyone huddled around him and read along with his tormented eyes.

I watched as their expressions turned from confusion and curiosity to disbelief and anger.

Sam's hand dropped to his side and I held my hands up to my temples.

Trying not to freak out.

I slid down the wall feeling as though I would shatter into a million pieces when I hit the ground.

I heard someone on the phone in the back but I couldn't focus,

"Hello? Yes we need help"

Sam crouched down in front of me and leaned up against the opposite wall of the hallway.

He sighed and let his head fall.

I was a wreck today.

Tears yet again began to spill.

Sam's arms reached out and wrapped around me.

Holding my shaking body still before I could breakdown.

I gripped onto his suit jacket and sobbed.

At this point I was curled up onto the floor of the hotel hallway.

Doors opening to see what was happening.

My whole world had collapsed.

That was had happened.
