Eric Dier - Main Character

                                    

                                          
She looked so beautiful in her white wedding dress. Eric could see her bright smile radiating past the thin white veil that was covering her face. Her hand was clinging into her father's arm, while her other hand held a white flowers bouquet. Eric remembered when she told him that she wanted everything in the wedding to be in white. She believed that marriage is a holy and sacred ceremony and celebration, so everything had to be in the purest color. And she had got all her wishes come true.
                          
Guided by her father, she walked to the altar. The piano was echoing beautifully in the room, making the scene look like it came out from a fairy tale. She walked gracefully yet certain with every step she took. Eric couldn't imagine how nervous she was right now, as he was feeling the same thing. He started to feel this lump on his throat, making it harder for him to breathe.
                          
Eric could hear whispers around him about how beautiful she looked. She was breathtaking. He thought that she always glowed in every important moment of her life, but she had never glowed like this. She was shining bright as she should be as the one and only main character today.
                          
She had been dreaming of this magical moment since she was a little girl. She had told Eric everything about her wedding dream. She had told him how she wanted her dress to be simple and elegant, made of satin with a glamorous chapel train. She wanted to wear a bracelet that her late mother wore at her wedding. She wanted white candles to be lit alongside the aisle and the arch in the altar to be covered in white fabrics and flowers.
                          
And Eric hated himself because he was not the one who made her wedding dream come true.
                          
She walked past Eric, towards the man she was going to spend the rest of her life with; her eyes were still locked with her groom's who was standing down the aisle. The groom was shedding his tears, making Eric wonder how amazing it would be to stand in his place right now. Eric had always imagined that he was going to be the one watching her walk to him in that beautiful dress. He had imagined how he would cry so hard because he was going to marry her, his other half. But destiny didn't bring her to him. She had found the love of her life, and it was not Eric.
                          
The regrets were creeping on his mind once again. If only Eric had fought for her, if only Eric had put his ego aside and put her first, he believed he would be the one standing at the altar wearing a white suit, waiting for her. He would vow to be the best husband that would protect and love her forever, and give her the life that he promised. But he was too late to fix everything and get her back. She had fallen in love with another man and he couldn't do anything about it.
                          
Eric felt like his world was crumbling down. The three years that he spent together with her suddenly flashed in his mind like a movie. This wasn't the ending he wanted, but he knew he had to be happy for her, for the path she chose for herself.
                          
She arrived at the altar. The groom took her hand from her father's, and the tears finally rolled down Eric's cheeks. He really was no longer a main character in her story.
