Chapter 7

Todays the day of Mercedes and Paul's wedding, and one things for sure is there is gonna be a lot of chaos. The day has already gone off to a hectic start as Paul is trying to kick out the roscoes at the garage, and from what Freddie told me he is blackmailing Browning with what he is doing to Lindsey and me for 10 grand or he will tell Mercedes everything, and I'm blackmailing him on top of that for £500 and unlimited booze at the wedding so a lot is at stake for him. Also Carmel is away at the moment so sadly she won't be able to attend the wedding. Theresa, nana and I are the bridesmaids and really wish I wasn't as I don't want to be linked to Browning in any way.

I walk downstairs and already I'm getting pestered to get ready as soon as possible.
"Hurry up Lola, it's only 5 hours till the wedding starts" Mercedes mithers, "oh wow only 5 hours" I roll my eyes sarcastically,
"Oi, don't start today madam I already have enough to be stressed about" Mercedes fires back. "Ugh fine " I groan and start applying my makeup in the kitchen where mum was whispering with John Paul, "what are you guys going on about?" I whisper as I stand next to them,
"Nothing" John Paul responds but I catch a glimpse of the picture mum is holding and it's a photograph of Lindsey and Paul of him trying to kiss her, "where did you get that?" I raise my eyebrow whilst subtly pointing to the photo, "none of your business and don't say anything to mercy, let me handle it okay?" Mum orders, "okay it's in your hands" I put my hands up and she walks out the house to what I assume is speak to Paul about the situation. I pretend it didn't happen and don't mention anything to Mercedes and start getting ready.

After I get ready I send a picture of my outfit to Robbie:

Robbie: looking nice 👌🏻

Me: thanks, my mum found that picture of Lindsey and Browning

Robbie: oh shit, let's hope he gets what he deserves.

Me: I agree I'll speak to you later after the wedding

Robbie: alright good luck Lols

Mercedes walks downstairs all ready in her wedding dress, "wow sis you look amazing" I smile. "You look beautiful" John Paul comments too, "your hair looks gorgeous" Theresa adds too. "I know, I just wish my sisters where hear to see me looking a million dollars" she replies. "Umm I'm here" I raise my hand with a cocky smile, "I know that I mean the others" she responds cockily back.
John Paul is walking her down the aisle so that will be nice, me and Theresa had similar dresses on due to us being bridesmaids and nana had a similar dress on too.
"Is the good doctor still insisting on that prenup" Nana asked, "I don't care coz I'm in it for life" Mercedes tells her, "till he sticks his sticky mitts somewhere else" nana fires back.
"Nana!" Theresa shouts at her, "he would never cheat on me" Mercedes responds, which made me roll my eyes, "why ya rolling your eyes?" Mercedes looks at me and raises her eyebrow,
"Oh nothing it doesn't matter" I tried to brush it off, "no, tell me Lola" she demands.
"Browning!" Joe bursts through the door unexpectedly, "Joe what are you doing here?" I raise my eyebrow,
"Most people knock" John Paul says to him,
"Where is he?" Joe demands. "Excuse me?" Mercedes says looking confused, "your cheating fiancé, with my woman" he fires back, "he wouldn't! No he wouldn't!" She snaps back in denial. "My Lindsey don't lie, why would she, he groped her at a hotel at some works thing" he explains, Mercedes looked stunned, "it's true..." I sigh. "Wait how would you know?!" She looks at me, "because I saw the picture..." I confessed. Mercedes storms to the door. "Wait where are you going?" John Paul asked, "to find out the truth on why that slag is trying it on with my man!" She shouts and slams the door as she leaves, leaving us all stunned. "Should I go with her?" I looked at John Paul and Theresa, "no just stay here for when she gets back ok?" John Paul tells me. "Okay" I say as a touch up my makeup waiting for Mercedes to come back.

When Mercedes came back she looked a mess, I assume she must have had a fight with Lindsey or something, which Lindsey doesn't deserve as I know she is telling the truth. She locked the door behind and I hear Paul shouting on the other side of the door whilst banging,
"BABE NOTHING HAPPENED WITH LINDSEY!" He shouted then he went quiet and I walk outside to see Freddie and Browning talking outside the house., "ten grand in my account and I'll call Lindsey off" Freddie said to him, I cross my arms "you still need to give my hush money too Paul, you'll know the consequences" I say with a cocky grin as I stand next to Freddie,
"You've got one hour" Freddie smirked as he walked away, "so, have you got my booze and £500?" I look at him. "Fine yes" he gives me a wallet of money, "the booze is in the loft I'll sneak some for you" he adds, "better be enough for me and my friend Holly we wanna have a good night" I smirk cockily, "I'll be wanting more money in the future this isn't over..." I whisper and then walk back into the house and lock it before he got in.

Mercedes slams her bedroom door and she doesn't want to go through with wedding which I mean I don't blame her and she doesn't even know what he's done to me yet so if she is mad about the Lindsey stuff she is bound to be twice as mad when she finds out that. My mum opens the door and tries to reassure her and throws her engagement ring in the storage space, "what did you do that for , we could of sold that" mum crawls in the small door and tries to find the ring and Mercedes, Theresa, John Paul, Nana and I leave the room and left mum to find it. Browning starts banging on the door again and John Paul gives in and lets him in, "two minutes with Mercedes please" he begs, "two minutes is what is probably took with that nurse" Nana comments, "it wasn't like that" Browning told Mercedes, "what where it like then?" Mercedes asked then walked upstairs and Paul followed her.
The rest of waited downstairs for them to talk it out.

A few minutes later Paul walks downstairs whilst holding Mercedes kicking him to get her down we all follow them to the car to the venue "oi this is kidnap" I said to him as he put her in the car whilst she banged on the windows and Jim drove them both to the venue and the rest of us quickly followed, I quickly text Holly that we was on our way and she set off to the wedding waiting for me. For some reason mum didn't come back downstairs but she will probably turn up soon.

We soon arrive at the wedding and follow them quickly behind into the venue and I could hear Mercedes telling Paul to get her down. I sit down next to Holly and she whispers "what's gone on with them two?" "I'll tell ya later, it's a long story" I whispered back.
"You can start now" Paul told the priest,
The wedding vows started off to a bad start as Mercedes mouthed off after browning told his vows but then surprisingly she agreed to marry him. "I now pronounce you husband and wife" the priest announced and they passionately kissed.

We all then went to the loft and Mercy called mum to ask where she was and the party then began. Holly and I walked up to Paul when he was not near Mercedes, "so, where's the booze?" I asked, "in the office go quick" he glared, and me and Holly snuck in and took a bottle of vodka and poured it in my small flask and shared it. Holly and I got extremely drunk and to be honest had a really good time,
"What will your mum think of ya drinking" I laughed. "I don't know and I don't care she had me at this age so I'm a saint compared to her" she laughed drunkly, we both was stumbling about the place and Mercedes walked up to me, "have ya been drinking?" "No" I acted sober.
"Dont go too crazy alright, you're only 16" she told me. "Okay I won't" I laughed a little and me and Holly continued to party and drank as much alcohol as we could.

After the wedding party I stumbled out the loft and said goodbye to Holly and walked over to the Roscoes house, I knocked on the door. "Helloooo anyone there?" I slurred. Freddie opened the door, "I'm guessing you got that booze you asked for" he laughed. "How could ya guess" I laughed back as I stumbled into the house. "Woah easy Lola" he helped me walk into the living room "So, did ya get your 10 grand?" I asked as I sat on the couch,
He smiled and showed the check, "I sure did"
"Good on ya" I smiled. Robbie comes downstairs and sees me, "Lola?" He said and I turned around and stumbled over to him, "Robbie, hiiiii" I slurred whilst smiling and go over to hug him, "are ya drunk?" He asked whilst laughing and hugs me back, "of course I am not" I joked, "I thought I'd stop by for a bit then I'll head back" I continued. "No way you are going back home in that state, you can stay here tonight" Freddie said as he head upstairs leaving me and Robbie on our own. "Would your mum be ok with that?" I asked, "Yeah you can stay in my bed" Robbie offered, "you sure?" I tilted my head. "Yeah of course I'll sleep on the couch." He smiled, "you don't have to you can stay in the bed if you want" I said, which he looked a bit nervous, "you sure?" He questioned. "Yeah" I slurred. "Right time for bed you need to sober up" Robbie said as he picked me up and put me over his shoulder, "oi I can walk you know" I laughed as he takes me upstairs into his room where Jason was asleep.
"Be quiet ok Jase is asleep" he whispered as he puts me down, "okay" I whispers as I pretend to zip my lips and lock it, which makes him laugh a little. "Right climb up the bed and be careful, I don't want ya hurting yourself" he whispers as I climb up the ladder on the bunk bed and make space for him to get in. He lies next to me, "goodnight Lols" he whispers, "night Robbie" I mumble drunkily and fall asleep.
