My best friend and roommate is getting married. I am happy for her but sad for me. I have fallen in love with her fiancé back when he was her new boyfriend. They included me in many of their adventures.

The other problem is the wedding is being held in a small town where it is impossible to lie. Physically impossible. As the Maid of Honor I have to give a toast.

The toast went like this:

“To all of you gathered here to celebrate the newly married couple, I salute you. I have known the bride since we were kids. Our dream was always to be roommates and to never let anything or anyone come between us. The day that our beautiful Jane meet her future husband, I was there by her side. We all three went on their first date. It wasn’t long before Shawn moved in. I will miss you both every hour of every day we are not together. A newlywed couple needs privacy. Our apartment is yours. I love you both with my whole heart. Maybe one of you more than the other. Everyone please toast the bride and groom.”
