Critiqued: The Second Coming [M]

So if you can’t tell by the subject and the content there will be some religious content in here.<br><br>I’m going to play with a historical figure here that isn’t considered by most to be very sexy. I’m going to change that. I’ll be writing from a subject of Christian beliefs. Growing up in a small town in the Midwest, I follow the Christian teaching. I know that while I’m writing this, I could be considered as a possible heretic. This story will be hard to write and I may be using to many religious terms that some of you may not understand. That’s okay, and I’ll try my best to explain them.<br><br><br>Making sure that everything is right and perfect for the occasion, Gabrielle (Gabby) had made sure that everything was just so. Firstly, the dress had to be perfect. No red or black. It had to be white. She had on a very elegant white evening gown. It had a sweetheart neckline and a bare back that went half way down. Enough to show off that perfect tan she had acquired over the summer. The dress was strapless, and she would have to wear her hair down.<br><br>“Perfect!!” She shouted. <br><br>She had left her hair down and it cascaded down her back like a cascade of waterfall. Her make up looked perfect too, the blue eyeshadow popped, and she would look amazing dancing. Okay last thing, the shoes. <br><br>“Thank you, Jesus! You’re so awesome.”<br><br>Gabrielle had found a pair of white heels that matched her shoes to perfection. Now she looked absolutely amazing.<br><br>“Hi, Gabby.” <br><br>Gabrielle was so caught up getting ready that she jumped when she heard the voice. Dropping to the floor, Gabby picked up her shoes and slammed them back into her closet and shut the door. She didn’t need to explain herself, and she certainly couldn’t explain if she had been caught staring at herself. <br><br>“Hey, Josh, you look nice.” No I like nice. I won’t say that he looks nice. <br><br>“Thank you Gabby. You certainly look hot.”<br><br>Gabby looked down immediately. It’s not nice to look at a girl like that. Or maybe I’m just being too nice. Josh is a cute guy. And if she was being honest, she had been crushing on him for a while now. <br>“Don’t look at me like that, Gabby. I’m not going to hurt you.”<br><br>Gabby looked up at him, and he had that look in his eyes. The one that showed that he was smitten. Gabby looked away and started fidgeting with her dress. She had been waiting for this moment for a while. So had Josh. She could tell that much. He had been dating her for a while now.<br><br><br>“Okay... We can go.”<br><br>Josh smiled and handed her a corsage. It was a white rose, and she could see sparkly glitter on it. She had always wanted to keep this and put it in a box. She would do it later. <br><br><br>“Wow Josh, this is so beautiful.” <br><br>“Thank you... I had it made.”<br><br>Josh smiled and put the corsage on her. He leaned over and kissed her, and Gabby felt that butterflies in her tummy. She had always enjoyed his kisses, but this one was different. This was the kiss of marriage, the kiss that told her that this was the man she would spend the rest of her life with. And she was ready.<br><br><br>“You ready to go, Gabby?” <br><br>Gabby nodded, and they left. She looked back at her bedroom and looked at the painting that hung on her wall. It was a painting of her and her family. She had always thought that she could see something in this painting. Something that told her that she had been born for a bigger purpose. And here she was. She had been born for this.<br><br><br>Josh had brought her to an expensive restaurant that served the best food. It was a place that Gabrielle had always wanted to go. If she had ever imagined going out with Josh, this was the place that she had wanted to go to. <br><br><br>“Thanks Josh... This is so cool.”<br><br>“It’s no problem Gabby. I wanted to make this special.”<br><br>Gabrielle had always known that the devil was looking for her. She was made up of pure blood and she knew that he was seething with anger at the fact that he couldn’t get to her. She had always known that she had been born to be the vessel for the second coming. It was a responsibility that she took very seriously. And for a long time she had been waiting for the Christ. <br><br><br>“Hey Gabby. Are you okay.”<br><br><br>Gabrielle looked up and smiled. She didn’t want to appear like a dud. She smiled and the subject immediately changed.<br><br>“How have you been, Josh? Is everything okay?”<br><br>“It’s great Gabby. I just wanted to ask you something.”<br><br><br>Gabby looked at him, and she could see the sincerity in his eyes. She had expected this to happen. She had always known. <br><br><br>“Of course Josh.” <br><br>He got down on one knee and pulled out the ring. It was a beautiful ring with a large diamond in the center. And for a long time, Gabby had been waiting for this to happen.<br><br><br>“Yes!!” Gabby screamed. “I’d love to marry you.”<br><br>Josh smiled and put the ring on her finger. He stood up and pulled her into his arms. He leaned over and kissed her, and she could feel his hands pulling her into his arms. She had always known that she would marry him. It was a prediction that had been made for a very long time now.<br><br><br>“Well then, Gabby. If we’re going to be married, we should probably have some names for our children.”<br><br>“Of course.”<br><br>“And do we have any?”<br><br>“Yes, we do. For our first son, we’re going to name him after his father.”<br><br><br>“See... There you go again.”<br><br>Gabrielle laughed and looked down at the ring. He would come soon, and she would be ready for him. She had spent her entire life preparing for this very moment. It was what she had been born for. She was to be the vessel for the second coming, and she was ready.
