Today, I was the luckiest man alive. Even luckier than Sam who was about to witness the love of his life walking down the aisle. When Maya called me to ask if it was okay with me to be Emily's date for the wedding, I felt like I was dreaming. I immediately agreed upon bein

"You look gorgeous," I told her and smiled to myself when I saw the way her cheeks reddened. Her black hair was pulled up, highlighting the beauty of her face. The black eyeliner made her green eyes pop more.

"Thank you," she replied. I offered her my arm and she intertwined hers with mine. The two of us walked down the aisle and took our place at the altar.
