I stayed the night at the house where the wedding dress was. When I woke nothing but the thought of what Barbra said filled my brain. My mum came bursting into the room, excited about the day ahead. She pulled me from the bed and began making me look presentable. Her make up skills were fenomenal and I looked stunning. She tried to force me into the dress but I didn't want to wear it. If I wasn't marrying Maurice then why should I wear it? I just hoped Barbra thought of a plan, and fast. I didn't know how much more I could take of this. I knew I couldn't say yes to the marriage, I had to refuse. Once I was ready and looking stunning, if I do say so myself, my mum pulled me from the room. Downstairs my dad was waiting, his jaw dropping at the sight of me.
"You look amazing" he complemented
I muttered a gruff thank you before heading for the door. The quicker I could get this over with the better. There was a lino outside waiting in which we clambered into. I stared out the window the entire time thinking about if I would be able to see Maurice again.
It didn't take long to get to the church and I was glad, the journey was too tense. I was the first out of the car hoping to get this done with. My parents had to run to catch up with me, slowing me down. We began walking down the isle, my mum one side and my dad the other. I forced a smile as I looked to find Barbra but failed. I tried to find the brothers but still couldn't find them. Then my eyes settled in Jerry who was beaming from ear to ear, proud of himself. As I reached him he tried to grab my hands but I refused.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to celebrate the marriage of these two people" the vicar began
My mind began to wander. I was waiting for Maurice or someone to come storming in to stop it, but no one did. I kept a firm glare on Jerry, hoping he would get the message I didn't want to be with him.
"Vows?" The vicar asked
"No pass that" Jerry persuaded
"Do you Jerry Thomas take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife?" He asked
"I do" Jerry replied
"Do you Rosalind Mercury take this man to be your lawful wedded husband?" He carried on
"No. I will never marry you, never. You pigheaded, greedy, wife beater" I shouted
Jerry seemed shocked my by outburst.
"Vicar you must marry us" Jerry begged
"The woman said no, I can't" the vicar protested
"She's gone nuts though. She loves me really" Jerry tried to protest
"NUTS? IM NOT NUTS" I screamed
Then the doors burst open but I didn't expect who entered to enter. In walked Andy Gibb.
"Leave her alone. She belongs to my brother" Andy shouted running down the isle
Was this Barbras plan all along? Andy? I didn't care who it was, I was just grateful. Jerry didn't know what to say as he looked between the two of us.
"She's mine" Jerry said grabbing onto me
I pulled my arm free from his gritty grip. I ran towards Andy who engulfed me into a hug. He kept one arm around me and whisked me from the church. I took the engagement ring off and dropped it by the door as we passed. When we got further enough down the road we stopped. Andy turned to me, an apologetic look plastered on his face.
"I'm sorry for how I treated you. I should never have done it. I came to help you, my mum told me if your problem and I knew saving you would be a way of making up to you, and the others" Andy explained "I hope you can forgive me"
"Because you saved me from Jerry then yes" I replied before we carried on walking
We walked all the way back to the guys's house. As we opened the door Maurice came running.
"Andy get out" he scolded setting his eyes on his brother
"Mo he saved me from marrying Jerry" i defended as Maurice took me in his arms
He just glared at Andy making him uncomfortable.
"Did I just hear my little brother saved Ros from a horrible marriage?" Barry asked coming into the hallway
He hesitantly hugged his brother as Robin came to hug me.
"Your single" Robin almost cheered
"No" me and Maurice chorused
"What?" Robin, Barry and Andy chorused
"Now I'm not engaged me and Maurice are together" I replied beaming at the three brothers while holding onto the love of my life
