Sinead's Point of View
My whole body froze. I thought this trip was meant to help me deal with her lose, not be reminded of her.
"Sinead, please say something" My mum kept saying. I couldn't say anything. I started to cry, I don't know why she can't see that I don't want to do this or dwell on Katy.
"Look, we don't have to do this if you don't want to. We just thought that it would help bring sort of I don't know.. maybe a way for you to cope better? Sinead I didn't think this would upset you." Diane said. I looked at her and said "It isn't that it hurts, it hurts but...it also...it's a tad too soon"
With that we were off and boarding our flight. It was a long one too. We'd be in a plane for what felt like forever. After 11 hours we were in America. We had a lot to adjust to. The weather, the time zone, and just all the glamour of California. Esther and I were distracted and interested by all the stores and the chance at meeting celebrities.
Whilst my family was looking at all the sights, and being typical tourists, Esther and I took off on our own to do our own exploring. We ventured to this long strip along the ocean and went into every shop. Esther and I spent hours trying on different clothes and fooling around.
My phone began to wring, it was Tony. I answered.
"Hello?"
"Sinead, come meet us at the walk of fame, we have a surprise for you." Tony said as he hung up.
Esther and I started to make our way to the walk of fame. I saw Finn, my mum, Tony and the twins all standing in a group. We caught up with them and they were all smiling ear to ear..
"What's going on guys...?" Esther and I asked at the same time. They grabbed our hands and dragged us into a restaurant.
We sat down and I was handed a blind fold. The whole place suddenly got quite and I started to get nervous. Was this some sort of prank?
I started to hear foot steps and I got even more nervous. I could hear some squeals from my mum and Esther, whatever it was they knew what was going on and about to happen. I couldn't wait any longer, I started to take off my blind fold, when suddenly someone grabbed my hands.
"Sinead Louise O'conner. You and me, we've been through some crazy times, some rough ones too. But.. they've only made us stronger. In fact, it made us grow. I don't know much of what will happen, or what life will throw our way, but one thing I do know for certain is that I love you. All of you. Every little detail that makes you up. The good, the bad, the beautiful, the ugly, and everything in between. I know that these last 4 days have been hell, and I haven't done much to help you get through them, but that's all changing now. The day of our wedding, I was distant and I left. That was silly of me. But as I said, it's all changing now. I'm gonna stop rambling now, and finally do it. Sinead, will you please do me the honor in re-marrying me? I want this time to be perfect. So will ya?"
Freddie. He wasn't in France, he was planning.
I was shocked about everything he said. How could I say no? He was, no he is my life and my everything. I love him.
"Fred, I.... I... of course!" I said as he took off my blind fold and picked me up and kissed me. The entire restaurant started to clap and cheer. He set me back down and slid the ring onto my finger. This is the most joy I felt in all the four days.
"Oh, and that bucket list, it was my idea. I felt bad that Katy won't be able to our flower girl, so I want to do this. For her, for us." Freddie said. I just smiled and gently kissed his lips.
I looked past Freddie's shoulders and saw the entire Roscoe family: Joe, Lindsey, JJ, Ziggy. Robbie. Jason, their mum, and even Kim was there. They were all buzzing and so happy that this was happening.
"Well... are you gonna show us the ring?!" My mum said whipping away tears of joy. I showed her and she couldn't stop smiling. We left the restaurant and headed back to the walk of fame.
"We got you two something" Tony said. We followed him and it was a star that we could keep with Katy's name on it. "This is perfect. Thank you so much Ton!" I said well hugging him.
After a long day of mixed emotions and fun, we all decided that we should head to our hotel. "Guys, we need to sort out room arrangements." Diane said.
"Freddie and Sinead in room 1, Lindsey, Joe, and JJ in room 2, Tony, the twins and I in room 3, Ziggy and Finn in room 4, Robbie and Jason room 5, and Kim and Esther in room 6. Sound good? Kim! Esther! what room are you guys in?!" Diane said just now noticing that the two have been making out for at least 10 minuets.
Today has been the best day in a while, and knowing that Katy is gone has only become easier.
I was starting a new life, a new me, a new beginning, no more turbulence.
