Carolyns Final Fan Fiction

From the moment I layed eyes on Indi I knew she was the one I was going to spend the rest of my life with.

My heart skips a beat, gliding up the aisle, barfoot in the hot sand, her blonde hair shimmering in the sunlight, my pulse quickens...I can't talk my eyes off of her. Her beauty is indescribable, I can't believe I am lucky enough to marry this woman that I am so madly inlove with.

Xavier my best man nudges me and winks..."You lucky, lucky man!"

"I will love you forever Indi, you take my breath away" I whisper in her ear as she stands next to me.

"I do" Indi says. "I do" I say with the biggest grin on my face.

Walking hand in hand down the aisle now a married couple we are surrounded by loved ones and their is so much excitement in the air it feels as though we've infected everyone with our happiness and love.

Ruby, my best friend stands out to me in the crowd, her eyes are bloody red and puffy. She doesn't smile at me as I walk past and I can see anger and regret written all over her face...I don't understand why.

There's no time to go see Ruby as we make our way to our getaway car, whatever it is I'm sure she's fine and I'll see her when I get back.

"Bye love's you have a great time on your honeymoon" Irene shouts over the crowd. We wave goodbye and the wind sweeps our hair back as we drive off.

"Are you ready Mrs Smith?" "I can't wait Mr smith" Indi winks at me as she's smiling. At this moment in time in our open convertible with the most stunning bride I am the happiest new groom in the world!


We step out into the warm tropical air, excited to have a few days of alone time together. We arrive  in our suite and I cannot resist Indi anymore.

We lie in each others arms completely relaxed and watch the sunset over the horizon.
"It's so beautiful Romeo I wish we could stay here longer"
"I know it's out of this world" I pop a bottle of champagne and we savour what little time we have left on this beautiful island.

A week of passion and romance goes by so quick and before we know it we're back at home in Summer Bay. I go to the Irene's cafe to catch up with everyone and I wonder where Ruby is, I did text her to meet today.

"Irene have you seen Ruby she was meant to meet me here today?"

"No love, to be honest I haven't seen her since the wedding, it's almost like she's been hiding away"

I decide to go see her at home and on the way there I see her sitting on the beach by herself, her arms wrapped around her legs looking out to the sea in deep thought.

"Hey Rubz!"

"Oh hi Romeo I didn't realize you were home already"

"You knew I was back I texted you to meet today"

"Sorry Romeo I just don't feel well at the moment I'll see you sometime later ok"

And with that Ruby walks off and I don't know whats going on, I haven't done anything wrong and it doesn't make sense the way that she's been acting towards me.

I get home and Indi can see in my face that I'm not happy.

"Whats wrong you look a bit shocked?"

"I'm so confused it feels like Ruby is avoiding me and she's not herself I'm really worried about her"

"How about I go see her tonight and try talk to her, she might open up to me if it's more of a girl thing you know?"

"Thanks babe that would be great, she's just not being herself"

After dinner Indi goes to visit Ruby and I hope that she can find out whats been bothering her. I wake up on the couch and look at the time, jeez it's two in the morning...I check in our bedroom and I don't see Indi, I check outside for the car and it's not there. She must have stayed over night with Ruby guessing they must have had a few wines together.

I wake up in the morning check my phone and there's no calls or text's from Indi, there's a text from Ruby...'I have always loved you, I'm so sorry'. I call Ruby and there's no answer. I start panicking this doesn't make sense what is Ruby sorry about?

The hospital calls and Indi's been taken into intensive care. They won't tell me yet what has happened but it's not good. I start sweating and my heart is hurting, I feel like the world has collapsed beneath me.

The love of my life is not going to make it...I fall into a ball on the ground...the pain is unbearable...I can't breathe. I don't want to move or do anything because it will be real then.

What happened? Why is Ruby sorry?
