Huck escorted me to Jeremy and Jaime's wedding yesterday... it was a classic catholic "stand up, sit down, pray, stand up, sit down, communion, stand up, sit down, pray some more" mass ceremony... which, to each their own! ;)
The reception was small, structured, quaint yet, dry (as in no alcohol)... and the buffet organization was great! Only two tables at a time were allowed to get their food so it didn't look like a mass of hungry animals up there! lol I think everyone really enjoyed themselves!
Years ago, when I first found out they were dating, I was angry...
Excerpt from Words Upon Pages... July 2004
"... after today's events i stopped by the mall just to meander around in my own lil' world... low and behold i run into people i know!... so its "hey how ya been, haven't seen u in awhile" type conversation with jamie... one of my absolute closest friends in highschool... we were in band together for four years, the later half we were the drum majors... needless to say, i spent alot of time with this person... almost sisters...
... so not two minutes into the conversation and she says to me "u'll never guess who i'm dating... i've left evan for good"...
... evan was her first love i guess... they were together for five years...
... unexpecting me is standing there waiting for the grand name of the hour only to find out that the two people i respected the most from highschool had just betrayed me... betrayal of all betrayals... jeremy and jamie...
... she says "isn't that cool?! are u speechless? how do u feel about that? i wanted to be the one to tell u"...
... devastated i only said "wow, i duno, i just found out... i guess take care of em, he use to be a good guy"...
... what am i to say to that... someone i was with for nearly two years is dating the chic i was so close to when he and i were together?...
... we dismissed and i walked away so numb... no feelings... cause its not like i'm in love with jeremy and i'm just dieing to have him back... its that u just don't do that... that's like me dating evan... i have enough respect for jamie not to even let that cross my mind...
... i think what even bothers me more is the nonshalantness that showed through her voice, the "oh btw"...
... and i know we've all moved on since good ol' american highschool, but the good memories i had from then were of and with jeremy and jamie... as my best friend my boyfriend... not as a couple...
... whats even more twisted is that someone i've trusted for years and years encouraged them to get together... seth. interresting isn't it...
... what if i had not been over jeremy yet and this happened? i'd of gone mad... duno what i would've done... but its been a year since then and i guess we've all moved on... never saw that comming tho... guess thats why its got me thinking... thinking about how many glances they passed behing my back... wondering if i was dicked over the entire time? wondering why i'm the fool in the end... or feel like it anyways... "
I feel much different now... five years of dedicated work towards a relationship is admirable! I guess that's where the growing up and maturing part comes in... ;)
Admittably, I was nervous at the wedding... my hands shook when I took pics, tons of them came out blurry... my cheeks trembled as I posed for pics along with them... along with him... I didn't except or foresee that out of me. But, I was his "Cara", his "Kristen", I broke his heart for no reason. Nevertheless, I looked my best and paid my respects to both families and couldn't be more happier for the both of them; they are both responsible for making my highschool memories so wonderful and a joy to remember!
