The Trouble Begins

It's coming up, that wedding!

This may contain swearing, it probably does, blah, blah, blah. Enjoy it though, and thank you to anyone and everyone that is reading this. I know the writing style changed slightly, but...I got bored. Hope you all like it still!

Cori’s POV

I leaned into Fal. I knew what that I had to wait a year, but I didn’t want to. I wanted to marry Fal, this very second. I pushed myself up and walked out of my room. Fal was asleep on my bed. I walked out of the building. I sighed and got into my car. I drove into the city. I found a car park and got out. I walked around. I came to a stop at wedding shop. I breathed and walked in.

I walked in. The store was full of women looking at the dresses.

“Hello, can I help you?” A young lady asked coming to my side. “I just want to have a look.” I said, she nodded and went to another customer. I walked over to the dresses. I just stood there looking at them. I turned and ran out, back to my car and home.

Fal was still asleep in my bed. I smiled and crept over to him. I leaned over and kissed him. I moved back and his eyes opened slowly. I smiled and kissed him again.

“Good morning.” I said crawling onto the bed. I started bouncing.

“Yes, good morning.” He leaned in and kissed me. I giggled.

“So today?” I asked smiling.

“What about today?” He asked looking at me weirdly.

“Let’s get married today.” I said in a low whisper.

“Cori,” He said. I gave him puppy dog eyes. “You’re only 17.” He said in a hushed tone.

“And why not?” I threw my hands down.

“Why though?” He asked. I kicked at him.

“I want to marry you!” He just smiled. I turned into a puffer fish.

“Please, please, please?” I asked bouncing around again.

“Fine, but you’ll have to be turned, which means we have to go to the Council.” I bounced around the room like a mad nut.

I sat in Lena’s room, she was in the shower. I leaned back. It was the day we were going to the Council. The door to the bathroom opened and Lena came out. I smiled. “Let’s go then.” We left the room and down the many halls and stairs. We left the house and got into the car. The sun had already gone down. I leaned back into my seat. I’m nervous, awesome.

It didn’t take long to get to the Council Hall. I breathed in and looked to Lena. She turned to me smiling.

“Just breathe.” She whispered. She followed everyone in. Humans weren’t aloud in the court room, so I was with Henry yet again. I was fine with it, even though he looked like Will and not Fal; he was still pretty nice to us.

“You’ll be fine.” Henry said. I smiled.

“Why aren’t you turned?” I asked looking down at my hands.

“I’m not that much younger than Jasmine, so we’re waiting until I’m older.” I nodded. “How old is Jasmine?” I asked smiling. “She’s 39. But mind you, she only ages every so often, so she looks young. I’m 37.” I nodded. The court door opened and everyone left. I swallowed. We stood and I looked at Fal.

“You’re in.” Lena said bouncing around.

“She means you’ll be turned.” Will said. I smiled and jumped around with Lena.

“When is it?” I asked still bouncing with Lena. I stopped and looked over at Fal.

“The day before our wedding.” I smiled and looked at Lena. I’m getting married in two months.
