A/N: Srry it took long. I hope you enjoy this chapter. Also a million thank you to all your beautiful reviews!! They keep me motivated!
Friday came by before I knew it and the news about the engagement party spread like wildfire across Oooville’s media and social networks. It was the beginning of august and the weather was scorching hot, which was why I was thankful the party was taking place inside a tent that had a cooling system. It was 12 in the afternoon and the whole thing won’t start till 3, yet the guests were piling since an hour ago. The Press didn’t fail to show themselves and they were all prepped up and ready, currently though they were busy interviewing the guests and the fiancée.
One of the waiters walked by offering me a glass of champagne which I accepted, I took a sip just as Peppermint approached me.
“How’s your migraines?” he asked keeping his voice low
“The pills aren’t working as they used to, they just make the pain more bearable. I think I need stronger ones.”
“Are you carrying some with you?”
“Yes I am.” I nodded patting my breast pocket.
“Very well, I’m not sure the doctor would prescribe a stronger pill for you. It might be dangerous for your body. Let’s just wait and see.” He said then left to talk with the staff. The moment he left Bubblegum approached me dressed in a beautiful long pink strapless dress designed by Maggie Sottero.
“Gumball! Congrats on your engagement!” squealed my cousin and slapped my back
“Very funny PB.” I said with a fake enthusiasm
Bubblegum giggled softly before she sipped her drink and said, “Today’s the day.”
“Today’s the day.” I said back, “Sorry it didn’t go according to our original plan.”
“No probs. The sooner the better.” She smiled, “By the way I didn’t think you’d have the guts to bring your boyfriend with you.”
“My wha-?” I said as I turned around and looked to where she was pointing; there stood Marshall tall and confident as if this was his party. He wore a black tux with bright red tie that brought out the colour of his eye. He was surrounded with fan girls as he was chatting up with reporters.
What is he doing here?
“Do you mind keeping Pepp busy for a while, at least until I get Marshall out.” I handed my drink to my cousin then marched to Marshall fuming but Brittany blocked my way. She threw herself on me and said,
“Baby! Why didn’t you tell me you were friends with Marshall Lee? You know how much I love his music.”
“Friends? yes, yes we’re friends.” I said then stole a quick glance at Marshall who was laughing at something a girl said; he looked totally engrossed with his fans and reporters. He spared a glance at me only to turn around right after as if I wasn’t important.
What was he doing?I was expecting him to rush over here and create a scene. Why isn’t he doing that? Is he not…jealous? Was he ignoring me?
“You know, my parents won’t be home tonight so I -”
“Excuse me for a minute Brit; I need to speak with Marshall Lee.” Gently I pushed her aside and continued my way towards Marshall but his fan girls were blocking my way, so I just stood at the side waiting for him to notice me. When he saw me waiting for him, Marshall said something to the press and flashed his fan girl’s one of his killer smiles. The girls and the press turned to look at me then dispersed leaving me finally alone with Marshall.
