Chapter thirty eight
"Talk of righteous anger."
Having gotten dressed, Diana had her hair still in a ponytail as she was wearing shorts and a tank top with a cropped light blue sweater, where she was holding flowers that Susannah had planted in the garden to give to Julia "so seeing as going to see Julia is your idea. How about you tell me what exactly it is your expecting to happen? Are we gonna steal all the paper work for the house so she can't sell it to anybody? Are we gonna combine the amount of money we have and bribe her into giving us the house? Or we wait till she's asleep take her mattress and put her out into the middle of the ocean." she shared.
"Wow. Um, those are all good ideas but I was thinking that we just play to my strengths." Jeremiah shared "ah so you want her to stare into your blue eyes and give her that award winning smile and hand her a bouquet of flowers which I'm sure are your moms favorites and probably not her's and say, give us our beach, please?" Diana asked, holding the flowers out to him "exactly. You know, I wish I had more to go on, but she and my mom weren't exactly close. I mean, the last time I saw her and Skye. I was probably, like, seven, eight years old." Jeremiah shared.
As Diana hummed "so, that means not only is she gonna hate your gesture of kindness but also have no idea who you are! This plan is going great!" she voiced, raising her brows "well, for the record I'm mostly just winging it. And knowing Conrad, he probably took the righteous anger route when he talked with her. And I'm sure that went over like gangbusters." Jeremiah shared, and as he did, Diana chuckled "oh, like you were so calm when I won prom queen." she shared "that was different!" Jeremiah voiced, as Diana raised her brows.
The two thought back to prom, where Belly, Diana, Taylor and Marcy were standing next to each other, where Diana's hair was curled and wearing a dusty rose dress where the corset had jewels on it while the rest of it was tool, as their mom had taken pictures of them "okay, let's get the boys in here, too." their mom then shared "about time." Steven said, as him, Taylor's date, Jeremiah and Conrad walked behind the girls "oh, don't look so excited." Marcy told them "everybody better be smiling or you'll have to take fifty more of these." Diana shared, through her teeth as she smiled.
"Laurel, you..you got, you got a full body shot, right?" Susannah asked, being on through facetime "and..and I want, I want the back of Belly and Diana's hair not just the front."" Susannah shared, as they all laughed "Beck." their mom told her "I'm sorry, Laurel, but you suck at taking pictures." Susannah shared "true!" Diana voiced "hey!" their mom voiced, as all of them laughed, the boys had their arms around wrapped around girls, as they all smiled "love it." their mom said as she took the picture.
"Let me see their corsages." Susannah told them, as Marcy, Taylor and Diana held their arms out, Diana's was pink roses "you know I am ripping this thing off of my arm after the pictures, right?" she asked Jeremiah, as Jeremiah laughed "believe me, I know. I tried to tell my mom that corsages weren't your thing but she said it was apart of the prom experience." he shared, as Diana laughed with him.
"Okay, we got to go." Taylor told them "yes."Steven said, as Taylor and her date walked off, Marcy and Steven followed him, Diana and Jeremiah followed after them as Diana took her corsage off her wrist.
"Ooh! I wonder who you're gonna have to dance with when you win prom queen." Taylor shared, as Diana scoffed "don't remind me. I had to keep reminding half of the guys in our school that I was going to prom with my boyfriend." she shared, as Jeremiah put his arms around her "remember how Zach didn't believe you?" Taylor asked her, as Diana rolled her eyes "wait, who's Zach?" Jeremiah asked "he's the captain of the football team. He kept trying to ask Diana out practically since homecoming where the two won king and queen." Taylor shared "oh, captain douche." Jeremiah realized, as they all laughed "well, your here now." Diana told him, putting her arms around him as she leaned into him.
