Highway to Famous

Aussie 2.0

I had left my phone home for the sole purpose that I knew I would make myself go into deep depression, being in different time zones sucked but being away from him was even worse.

"Hey what's up iv tried to call you like a hundred times? Are you okay, you've been different since you got back and not in the good way either." Interrogated Elizabeth

"Yeah I left my phone at home so I wouldn't be constantly checking it to make sure Pete wasn't calling or anything. I figured if I stayed distracted from it I wouldn't be depressed and everything." I mentioned

"Um maybe you should go get it, because Pete has blew up my phone all morning. He got rained out of filming and wants to talk to you about something really important." She said determined

As my eyes widened I ran for home, within minutes I grabbed it and was struggling to message Pete back. No sooner than I hit send his face lit up my screen, I answered with the biggest smile ever.

"Hey! Iv been trying to call you all morning, I got rained out tomorrow so I figured I'd stay up a while and talk to you. Also I have some things to run by you if your have time, if not I'll run them by you later." He said anxiously

As I messaged Elizabeth letting her know I would be a while, I noted that I had time and was ready for whatever he had planned.

"So I was able to get the week your here off, it will be my last week here anyway so I thought we could do the sight seeing things you wanted to do while you're here. I also have some things planned that I can't discuss because I want them to be a surprise." He said

As we hung up I ran back to work, barely able to talk I tried to express my excitement to Elizabeth about everything Pete said. She tried to act happy but she had the look of something was up and she wasn't happy about it.

"Um where's your ring? You've not wore since the day you were moody. Oh my god you were planning on breaking things off with him wasn't you? Look part of getting married is making it through bad and good, this was a test to see if you were actually ready for everything. You've made it this long without him you can do this don't break it off, you definitely don't want publicity get to Pete before you talk it over with him. Plus I refuse to let you leave him, he's the only one who can keep you level." She lectured

On the plane ride back to Australia for the last time, I had fiddled with my ring and thinking about what Liz had said about Pete keeping me level. I was also the person who was able to handle all of his emotions and let him lash out on me, the world also didn't exist when he was around I made him my priority.

Soon as the plane landed I ran to the vehicle that was taking me to my guy. I was halfway up the sidewalk before the driver could get stopped, darting for Pete I lunged for him not wanting to ever let go.

"So I uh I gotta go do this thing, I know you just got here but I'll see you in a few I promise. I LOVE YOU" he yelled as he sprinted for the door.

Leaving me puzzled yet depressed I just went along with it, I just thought he needed to finish some stuff at work. Pete messaged me some time later, "So there's going to be people coming to get you ready for tonight, I chose the best for the best person. Also you'll be blindfolded putting your outfit on till you get to the place we're meeting at. Can't wait to see you!"

A few minutes later the doorbell rings as what seemed like a hundred people standing outside waiting patiently, as they walk past me I can hear the murmurs of "oh this is going to be the best one yet! The fact she has absolutely no idea is going to be worth it."

Still confused as to what is going on I follow them to where they we're setting up, they sit me in the chair and begin doing hair and makeup then I get blindfolded and helped into my outfit. I could feel it was kinda heavy and felt really bumpy just thought it was an overly decorated party dress no big deal.

Hours later we finally get to the place I'm meeting Pete, still blindfolded I struggle to put one foot in front of the other. With some help I finally hear a familiar voice, as they take the blindfold off trying to get my vision back Pete's all dressed up in suit and tie even more nervous than the day he purposed to me. I look down and notice the cream, strapless, lacy chiffon dress on me, I look up with the intention of we're about to elope.

"Okay so two things, one yes we're about to elope in Australia because why not, it's the best place. Two there's a store who wants to partner up with you here and go into the sugar scrub business they will give you more of the profits considering you make and ship it to them. But more on that later, so what do you say wanna do this one big leap in life with me?" He asked nervously

"Hmm do I want to elope and marry the guy of my dreams in Australia alone after going through all the trouble he had to do to get me here? Hell yeah I do let's get this going honey!" Eagerly rushing in

Subsequently we went back to the humble abode as we stood tangled in each other, yet again Pete gets antsy. This time was worse than all the others I had a bad feeling this time and I wasn't ready for what he was about to say.
