While I was walking to school I thought of some things... Was it right to marry Rafe? Was it right for it to be small wedding here most likely no one would show up to? It saddened me to think my parents wouldn't be there... "Katherine." I whipped my head around to see Mackenzie. His expression seemed hurt. He sighed and walked towards me. "Yes?" I asked. "Why is it that you fell out of love with me?" he asked. "I mean... I still love you." I grimaced. "Go away. You have a girlfriend! You're my brother! And..." "I don't love her! I love only you!" he cried. "It's only ever been you. I've loved you my entire life and it nearly killed me to be away from you this long," he said. "I..." "I thought I wouldn't be able to live with out you... But I have been. I've fallen for Rafe... He and I are going to..." "Is it because he reminds you of me? I can see the resemblance..." "What are you... What are you saying?" "Isn't it true that you loved me... You wanted me around and to be with you? When you met Rafe, he looked like the dead guy you used to love. Is it really a coincidence that you fell in love with him? Are you sure you really love him for who he is, not because he looks like me?" I stood there unable to say anything. "I knew it. You still love me," he said. "I... I don't! I love Rafe! I really love him!" I cried. "Not because he looks like you! But because he was there for me... He didn't desert me and leave me! He was with me all along and I didn't realize that until now! I'm marrying him because I love him!" Mackenzie looked surprised and even more hurt. "Y-you're marrying him?" he asked. My heart quickened. "Yes... I'm marrying him. And it's because I truly love him. More than anyone... more than you." "I see..." "I'm so sorry. But you left me... you died. I'm not sure how much clearer I can make this. You were gone, and I missed you... But I had to let go. And Rafe Cartier helped me to do that... I'm sorry." "I-I understand," he said. I leaned over and kissed his lips. "I love you Mackenzie... I really do, but Rafe is the most important person to me." He wrapped his arms around me and held me close to him. "Sorry... Just let me stay like this for a while..." he whispered. "Damn... this really hurts," he laughed. Tears formed in my eyes and I put my arms around him. I loved him, but not the way I loved Rafe. But the love I felt for Mackenzie, wad the type of love to last for an eternity. I was both happy and sad... but I was finally free of the misery that was once buried in my heart. I was finally free...
