Lilly & Julian

Chapter 10: 'I feel cheated on right now.'

"Julian come on; you're still pissed about the macaroons? We told you we are sorry but Han and Blake couldn't delay it anymore and you had to visit your parents."

I kept on whining but he just huffed and continued working on his laptop opposite to me.

I slammed my hands on my desk and after a few minutes opened my laptop to start working for the day. If he was going to be a petty bitch, then let him be. I said I was sorry what else could he want?

"Fine, if you're going to be a petty bitch then I'm going to let you be. Stay petty on the wedding too, stay petty when they'll have kids, stay petty when you'll grow old with wrinkles and stay petty when I'll go to my grave too. In fact, you're officially uninvited from my funeral."

Silence remained between us. And not a comfortable one, might I add.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed his pout dissolving once he registered my words and looked at me with puppy eyes but I ignored him.

After a few seconds he said in a quite voice, "You're not dying."

I looked at him bewildered, "That caught your attention. Finally, so as I was saying before, we need to decide what to do for the bachelor- bachelorette party for upcoming weekend. The wedding is in two weeks."

He looked at perplexed, "Oh my God, I fell in your trap. I'm feeling cheated on right now."

I rolled my eyes at his dramatics, "It's not my fault you're such an idiot. Please Julian, we don't have much time."

He gave me a smug look, "Wow, never thought I'll ever see Lilly Evangeline West begging me."

I raised a sharp eyebrow and his smugness instantly wiped off his face.

"Fine, we'll do it after work at my place." I heard him mutter and smirked in reply.

I ran my fingers through Taco's fur who was peacefully sleeping on my lap on the rug in the living room where Julian and I were sitting.

"Since Han and Blake aren't going for an extravagant wedding, they have a smaller number of guests to invite."

I nodded and replied, "Yeah, Han gave me the list of guests to invite for the bachelor party. I'll forward it to you. She said five cousins from her side and three from Blake's side."

Julian whistled, "Phew, they really did cut off people. Imagine what they'll feel once they'll know."

I snorted imagining what would be the reactions of the left-out people.

He continued, "But anyway, it's good for us. We won't have to spend a lot of money."

"Yeah. Have you got any ideas what should we do?"

He got lost in his trail of thought while I went to the kitchen and brought some wine.

"Well?" I questioned once I returned, Taco lying on the rug beside me now.

"I was thinking maybe we could book rooms at a resort on the outskirts of the city. What do you say?"

I nodded thoughtfully, "Maybe we can go for clubbing the first night."

"Oh, and we could rent a party bus or maybe a limousine."

He gave me a mischievous smile and his eyes shone with ideas which made me laugh because he looked like a kid who finally found the solution of his maths homework.

"And we can organize a scavenger hunt on one day."

Julian agreed with me.

"And we can rent the rooftop for one night and have an extravagant dinner there with all the lights and crap. We can make toasts too."

I widened my eyes, "Man...all these ideas are making me excited for my own wedding."

He crossed his arms across his chest, "Oh yeah? Tell me Noodle, how would you like to get married?"

I squinted my eyes and bit my lip, "I'm one of those people who'll definitely elope on a random day. And then Aunt Jenna would be like 'Lilly! I decided so much for your wedding day and you just ruined it.' Although she'd probably be cool with it after a while but not before I'll have a proper wedding even though I already eloped."

By the end of my description, Julian was nearly dying out of laughter on the floor and woke up Taco.

"I haven't heard...anything more...accurate than...this!" He wheezed in between his laughs.

I fake smiled at him. It was true. Whenever I used to imagine my own wedding, I always thought of eloping and then J-J forcing an actual wedding.

And honestly, I liked the idea of it. Maybe if fate allowed...that fantasy might come true someday.
