Week 6 story, The Bachelorette

 Zara was waiting at the top the in a floor length red dress. Her husband was on his way. She just didn't know which guy he was. She signed up for this reality show on a whim and now she was the star. She was about to meet twelve different men and she was bound to fall in love with one of them. Her nerves were high.

    The limo pulled up. Out stepped a tall man with wide shoulders, dark hair and hazel eyes. He was breathtaking told an adorable joke and walked inside, he was perfect.

    Next stepped out a pale blonde with icy blue eyes. He was of a tall, slender build and had an adorable shy disposition. Also perfect.

    John was next he had darker brown skin and smile that could light up the entire world. He had a voice that made every nerve of Zaras body awake. He could be it.

    Zara was so confused as she continued to meet all of the other men. She felt as if most any of them could be the one. She had always felt like she would know immediately when she met the man she would spend the rest of her life with but it was exactly the opposite. She thought about 5 different men would be amazing husbands.

Zara thought things would clear up as she went on dates with the men but they didn't. She continued to fall in love with five of them. When hometowns came around she couldn't send one of them home. And decided to keep them all. 

It came time for proposals and she said yes to all five. She started to panic would they all 5 agree to being married to her! The next day she called them all over to her house and explained how she felt. They had a short discussion and decide they all wanted to marry her still.
