Is this a good short story?

Emily imagines herself walking down the aisle as every other girl does. She’s found Scott, a tall blue eyed man who can always make her happy. They met at a diner in New York and they both knew it was love. Emily is walking to lunch one day as she runs into her old love Tyler. He goes up to her and they decide to sit and catch up. As they were talking about life after high school when Tyler notices the ring on her left hand. He asks about it and she has no idea what to say to him. She says she’s going to marry in two weeks. They parts ways, but Emily cannot stop reminiscing about Tyler and herself in high school. She knows he hurt her in so many ways that Scott never did or ever would though she misses him. She keeps telling herself this isn’t real Scott is perfect, they are perfect together. Tyler leaves her a message and says that it was great catching up and he’d love to do it again sometime. She can’t say no so she calls him back and tells him that she’d love to. She doesn’t know what has overcome her because she’s in love with Scott and could never be in love with Tyler again. They meet again and she feels as if she’s falling in love with him all over again, but she’s getting married in a little less than a week. The wedding day has come and she doesn’t know what to do. She’s fallen in love with Tyler. As she’s getting ready to walk down the aisle as she’s always dreamed of she runs upstairs crying. She’s not ready for this; she’s not in love with Scott anymore. She runs to the front of the church and drives away with Tyler.
