Dream #3

So I had a dream last night about a friend of a friend I have never met in person, just online and through pictures.

I dreamt that I went to Toronto for some reason and I checked with all the rest of the friends I have from that area and Brian was the only one who said I could crash at their place while I was in the area. He ended up giving me the grand tour of Toronto and we hung out and watched movies and started to actually become real life friends instead of just online friends. Only he's really flirty and we ended up fooling around, and I ended up falling for him, trying not to, but it happened anyways. I was only supposed to be there for a week, but ended up finding a job and an apartment and moving up there. We kept fooling around and I don't think he knew I was falling for him.

I found out later that his family was loaded and they hadn't told him, but he was being forced into an arranged marriage to someone he didn't even know or like, and so I ended up hanging out and helping him with his side of the wedding since he couldn't get out of it. We got to be really good friends, and I ended up helping set up the wedding, but on the rehearsal dinner night the parents said I was un-invited, apparently they thought that he had feelings for me too, and didn't want me to interfere with the wedding day going off without a hitch, and ended up trying to pay me off to not go. For the next 2 or 3 days I couldn't get ahold of him at all, cellphone, email, even at his work, it seemed like he was ignoring me entirely. I got a bit depressed but decided to show up at the wedding anyway.

I got there and they had security working the gates to get in, so I went around back and dressed like a server for the reception, and got into the building, but I couldn't get to see him since he was in a room with the security guards outside. I missed him going into the wedding area, and he ended up getting married to the girl. Since I was already dressed like a server, they forced me into the reception hall and I got forced to serve at the reception, I started crying and tried to get away discreetly, but he saw me and excused himself to go to the bathrooms and found me. He asked what was wrong. I said nothing, and tried to walk away to save face, but he grabbed my arms and asked me again, I looked at him and said "I couldn't stand to watch him married to the girl he didn't know or love and then because I tried to get in to see him by dressing like a server, got stuck actually serving at the wedding of the guy I'm in love with." Then slapped my hand over my mouth and turned away, and started stammering corrections, "I mean... one of my good friends... Uh... a guy I know isn't going to be happy..." But he turned me around and hugged me to his chest and said "I know, I love you too, but there's nothing I can do now, my parents expect me to follow through with this marriage because it is good for business and I can't disappoint them." I kind of just pushed him away and starred at him, then said "Wait. You actually have feelings for me too, but you would rather marry some know-nothing blonde bimbo who your parents picked out for you, rather than be happy with someone you love?! Who does that?! This is the 21st century, you can make your own decisions, mommy and daddy be damned!" and then stormed out of the hall throwing my waitress outfit on the ground and pulling my hair out of the clip and leaving the door open as I walked out of the building.

I woke up after this, but I'd like to think that he went back into the hall realized I was right, got an annulment and then came to find me later and ask me to be with him... end with kiss and fade to end credits. It did seem more like a dream than real life, but it was kinda nice.
