The perfect wedding untill the unexpected happens
September 5th,1987 was the day that Mathew Jinkins first layed his eyes on Layla Kennedy at a park in Arizona. They both loved to go there and walk there dogs, Mat had two German Shepherds and Layla had one Pitbull which the dogs got along very well together. Matt would sit down on a bench and just watch Layla play frisbee with her dog Jax who loved to play frisbee. He would sit and act like he wasn't looking at her as he would sit on the bench and act like he was talking to his dogs Sky and Storm. Layla just happened to look over and catch Matt watching her. She walks over to Matt and introduce herself to him. Matt choked up at first and didn't know what to say to her,he looked down at her dog as Jax sat infront of him looking him in the eye, Layla tells Matt don't be affraid of him he is just a big over grown horse she giggled. Matt stood up slowly and introduced himself to Layala as he gave her a smile that melted her heart as she was finding herself attracted to him as well. They got to talking and found out that they had so much in common, Matt just looked at her as she kept talking he couldn't take his eyes off of her. As she was done talking they sat there for a few minutes watching their dogs playing, Matt looks over at Layla and asks her if she would like to go out sometime on a date, Layla looks at Matt and said I would love to. So they set a time and day to go out, he took her to a very nice fancy restaurant, they both had a good time and continued to keep seeing each other. As three years passed by Matt thought to himself about how happy he was with Layla how she made him feel, so he called her on the phone and told her that he would be late coming over to see her, Layla told him ok I will just see you when you get here hun, they hung up the phone and Matt went shopping for an engagement ring for the beautiful woman in his life. Layla wanted to surprise him when he came over so she thought to herself she would have plenty of time to cook up a nice romantic dinner for the both of them not knowing what Matt had in store for her. As Matt got to her house he knocked on her door and she answers it, Matt holds a huge bouquet of red roses with baby breath mixed in with a few white roses added to it. He grabs Layla and pulls her into a deep passionate kiss making her melt into his arms as she hugged him tight, he smelled something very good he asked her what she was making, she said I thought I would surprise you and make us a romantic dinner instead of going out to eat. He said this is so perfect, she says i thought so to I know how hard you work and your always spoiling me and I just wanted to do something nice for my baby in return, they both smiled at each other and Matt went to sit down as she got dinner ready. They both sat down and ate dinner as they was done he told her that was the best tasting dinner he has ever ate before nobody has ever done anything like that for me before and i just wanted you to know I really enjoyed it. she smiles at him as she chews her food and tells him thank you, He waits till she was done eating her meal as he told her he will be right back I forgot something out in the car. As he returned she was clearing off the table and stayed in the kitchen for a few minutes loading the dishwasher up, he hurried and put a huge teddy bear in her chair with another bouquet of flowers sitting on the table, as she returned she starts to giggle and askes him what is he upto why is he spoiling her so much, Matt got down on one knee and took her hand and told her how happy he was with her and asked her to marry him, she quickly replies to him as she pulls him up off of his knee and jumps into his arms and says YES!!!! I WILL MARRY YOU!!!. They sat a date to get married on September 5th 1991 same month and day they met. They got married and went to Las Vegas for their honeymoon. They rented a 5 star hotel and as they got to their room they smelled an awful oder int the room, they looked everywhere in the room and couldn't find anything so they went down to the desk and complained about it, the clerk said we will take care of it for you sir, are you guys going to be out for awhile I will get my crew and we will go in and give the room a good cleaning for you, Matt said actually we are going to be out for a bit about how long will it take you to clean? The clerk told him just a couple of hours Matt said ok we will be back then in a couple of hours, The clerk got some people and housekeepers together and they went in and cleaned the room, they gave it a good carpet cleaning, changed the sheets on the bed, scrubbed the walls down, cleaned the drains out,and everything else. As Matt and Layla was out celebrating at the casino's Layla told Matt she would be right back she had to go to the bathroom, as she got to the restroom there was a long line, she waited for a little bit and noticed a strange man dressed in black and a ball cap looking at her, she nodded her head at him and didn't think anything of it till she looked back over at him and he was still staring at her watching her, Layla got uncomfortable so she left the line and headed back to find Matt, she looked back and seen the strange man following her getting closer, she starts to walk faster and seen Matt, she hurried over to him and said the line is to long lets just go on to the hotel and celebrate there baby, Matt looked at her and notices she looked shaken up a little bit. As they got to the car he asked her if she was ok and what was bothering her, she told him that there was a strange man watching her as she was in line waiting for the restroom and she felt uncomfortable and when she left the line he started to follow me, thats when I seen you and hurried over to you, but I'm sure it might of just been me thinking crazy stuff I always had fears of people staring at me funny thats all. When they got to the hotel they entered the room and the crew was gone but the oder was sitll there, so Matt started tearing through the hotell to see if he could find it himself he flipped the mattress over and seen that the floor under the bed had been torn up so he opened the floor and they found a body of a young girl who had been raped, stabbed and strangled to death. At that moment there was a hard knock at the door Mat opens it a little bit and askes can I help you, Layla went over by Matt and she said that is the man who followed me at the casino in a scared and frightened voice, The strange man tries to pushe the door open as he kept looking over at Layla, Matt tries to fight him off but the man wouldn't leave he looked at Matt and told him your wife is my next victim. Layla tried to call for help but the phone was out of service, she screams as loud as she could hoping somebody would hear her and go get help. Layla goes and grabs a lamp and tries to bash it over the mans head as she tried to help Matt.. The strange man sees Layla going for the lamp and heading over to them he grabs Matt by the shirt as Layla slams the lamp down the man pulls Matt around and Layla hits Matt knocking him out. She begs the man not to hurt her that they just got married and this was suppose to be the happiest day of their lifes together.

The strange man darts at Layla grabbing her hair and starts pulling her to him, he looks at her smirking and told her sinse this is your honeymoon looks like you will be getting some rough loving from me. He kicks the mattress down and throws Layla down on it as he gets on top of her and rips at her clothes. She begs him for mercy as seh cries hard trying to scream, he puts his hand over her mouth and starts to undo his pants and rapes her. The man holds a knife to Laylas neck and tells her if she screams he will kill her, if you wants to stay alive you better do as I say . She nods in fear for her life. The man has his way with Layla for a long time. As he was done he tells her to get dressed and leave with him, Layla gets dressed slowly hoping Matt would wake up but no luck.
