I want them to feel jealous.” Now I couldn’t give up.
“I don’t know what to say,” I replied. He leaned off of my shoulder.
“All you need to say is that you’ll be the made of honor.” I nodded to this. No matter how much I was going to be embarrassed and how much hate I would get. I wanted Glytherin. But what if he didn’t respect this? What if he actually hated the idea and got mad at me? What if I was ruining his life by doing this? This could be bad. Lindsay would literally haunt him for the rest of his life. These were always the simplest beginnings to questions. What if, what if, what if.

That was always how it was with me. I had to stop. I had to do something different than just waking up in the morning, going to school for five days, doing something special on Saturdays, spending time knitting with Shane’s grandmothers on Sundays. I didn’t want to do that anymore. Though even if I had done that, it would be the same thing, but I’d know that I’d be waking up here.
“Thank you,” I said to Rigor now. He nodded trying to bare a smile. He did. “Sit in the waiting room. I think there’s no one in there at the moment. I don’t want you to be seen before the princess." I nodded. Rigor went upstairs. “I’m going to make sure Glytherin stays up.” He reminded me. I went over to the waiting room and sat in a seat. It was indeed very silent. I looked around. It was very white. It kind of looked like an infirmary.
I looked around at the desk and listened to the silence. How long was Rigor going to keep me here? Oh no, I was going to stay here so no one would see me before the wedding. This is a disaster. I can’t. It’s impossible.
I began to get antsy. Stop it! Stop moving so much! I don’t want anyone to know I’m here other than Rigor!
I began hearing voices. This was bad already. I didn’t want to be hearing voices! I looked around for a moment. I couldn’t do this on my own. I hardly knew half of what I should be doing. Should I run and hide? Was it really that big of a deal if anyone saw me? What if someone---then there I was again. I was still saying what if. I didn’t understand. I was never like this. Well I was---Goodness! I’m hesitating. I heard the voice a little bit louder. It was inside this room. It was definitely inside this room.
“No, not now, I don’t want drugs Rigor! That won’t calm me down. I don’t want to see you right now.” They were all whispers. “I’m in the waiting room, for what reason? Why do you seem so surprised?” Then all of a sudden, the voice turned into a figure as I covered myself. It was Glytherin. He hadn’t even looked at me but was still talking. Was I invisible to him? He began pacing up and down. This room was white. I was the brightest color he was going to see in this room. He turned off the cell phone and put it in his pocket. If he saw me, that was it.
And then he turned.
His face turned a pail white color and now he looked like he was frozen. I covered my face quickly but it made no difference. “What… are ... you doing?” He unfroze himself and began walking towards me grabbing my hands away from my face. “It’s no use, I saw you Orphelia, what are you doing dressed like that? You’re the made of honor. Not the bride.” I nodded painfully. Tell your best man that

, I’d wanted to say.
But Rigor, he was being all nice and polite. I couldn’t do something like this to him. “I don’t know what I was thinking,” I said blaming it on me. I stood up from the seat. Glytherin looked at me from bottom to top. “You can’t go in like that.” He said with the most intention ever. “I can’t let anyone see you like that.”
“But that’s the plan Glytherin, that’s what they said. No one can see me like this until I run down the isle being your stupid fiancé’s maid of freaking honor!” I stopped myself. Why was I so upset? Why was I putting this out on him? “I’m sorry,” I said.
“What who said?” Glytherin asked. Now, Rigor came into the room looking at something on his phone.
“Orphelia, I don’t know where Glytherin is but you should really be on the look-” He stopped now looking up surprised to see what was lying out in front of him.
“So you did this?” Glytherin said pointing at Rigor. “Get her into a different dress or get a new maid of honor!”
“This is a prepared dress and we have no more Glytherin, I made this especially to fit her body. You can’t argue with this. Come on Glythe.”
He shook his head rigorously.
“But if she enters, that’s the end of that. The queen will kill her.”
Rigor accepted this. “The queen may be evil, but I’ll make sure no one hurts her. Why are you so cautious any way? It’s not like you really care about how this will effect everyone.”
Glytherin smiled faintly. “I care about how it will affect my bride. I can’t deal with you both right now. Get her out of the dress, or out of here. That’s how it’ll happen or no dice, I’ll take her out my self.”
“You’re going to threaten her Glytherin?” Glytherin covered his face. He looked at me now.
“Can you just go?” he asked. “I can’t have you here, not looking how you do.”
Before I could answer, Rigor spoke. “So you don’t think she’s pretty Glythe?” Oh no. Glytherin looked at him steadily and then looked at me. “Rigor, I just need her out-”
“Glytherin, you didn’t answer me.”
Glytherin looked at me again and tensed. I didn’t care right now if he said yes or no, right now, I preferred he just told the truth and I’d be fine with it. If it were no, I wouldn’t say anything, if it were yes, I wouldn’t say anything. I was most likely just being neutral about it all. “Yes, Rigor, she’s pretty.”
“Is she cute?” Rigor asked.
Glytherin looked at him crossly and squinted his eyes in confusion. What was Rigor up to? Trying to embarrass me I’d think? “Huh, Glytherin? Is she cute to you?” Glytherin didn’t smile. “Sure-”
“Glythe is she gorgeous?”
Now he was angry. “Stop doing that,” he said now. “I know what you’re doing and you aren’t going to get out of it as easily as you get out of many things, if it weren’t for you, she would’ve never known I was getting married in the first place.”
“So you’d cheat on your wife with me if I hadn’t known you were engaged?” I asked stiffly.
Now Glytherin’s face went red. “That’s not what I meant Orphelia-”
“This days going to suck for you Glytherin.” Rigor announced. A sudden bell rang. Glytherin looked around and so did Rigor. I just stayed still ignoring it. “The guests have entered the building.” Said Rigor looking at the front door. “Why are they here? Didn’t we say 11:00? What time is it now?”
“The time changed to ten; didn’t you both get the message?” Glytherin said. “Rigor, you were in the castle all night, you knew didn’t you?” My eyes widened. I felt sick.
“Rigor, I can’t do this,” I began to stand up and Rigor placed me back down.
“You’re so beautiful, you’ll be fine.” I sat back down easily.
Glytherin’s eyes followed me and softened. “I’m sorry,” he said.
What was he even sorry about? “I have to go, and you and Rigor are going to be partners walking down the isle. Rigor, enjoy it while it lasts. I want you both to be the first to walk down. Understand?” Rigor nodded. Glytherin ran upstairs now where the wedding would be held.
“I feel sick,” I said when he was gone.
“It’ll be over once you say, I object.”
My eyes widened even more than they had before. “I object? I don’t think so. I thought we were going to make the princess stop it herself.” Rigor smiled and shook his head. “I don’t believe so, the queen wants her daughter to be married, and Glytherin is the one she wants her daughter to be married to. She won’t give him up. If we let them be married, then he’ll be unhappier than ever. She’ll hit him, feed him to some animals. You have to do this Orphelia.”
I nodded still unsure whether I should take the action or not. What if I messed up and blacked out from the unfamiliar stares? There I was again with the stupid ‘What ifs,’ I nodded again assuring him that I’d do this.
I stood up again as he placed me in front of him. He held my dress so no one could see it. “Your wings are pretty, has anyone ever told you that?” he asked. I nodded. Many people had. The woman who woke me up in the morning eating pizza, Dominique, you, Glytherin, and that was about it.
We began walking out of the waiting room very silently. I was afraid of my heels clacking against the glass floor. To keep me from worrying about that, Rigor picked me up from my shoulders. I kept back a scream. He was holding me and his hands went painfully into my arms. The crowd of people didn’t even take a small glance at us. We slowly went up the long stair case and I frowned at how much pressure I was probably putting on this guy. How much weight was I? Was it different here like how it was on the moon? I doubted that. The moon wasn’t a different dimension; it was just a different place. We were still on earth.
Once we reached the last step of the stair, the whole hallway was empty. Rigor let me down putting the heels on carpet not making more than a rustle. He pointed to a door. “Over there love, is where you go in and come out of the other door. I’m coming with you anyway so, it doesn’t really matter." He dragged me now and his tie was swinging all over the place. We made it into the door where a burst
