Tying the Knot with "Prince Charming"

Chapter 2

I reached my front door and instantly fell on the floor. Remind me to never run my anger off like that.

"Oh my word," I panted out while clutching onto my chest. If only my gym teacher saw me. He'd be proud.

Well, no need to think of my gym teacher no more, I'm getting married to a stranger. You never know, he might be a jock who has a peanut brain.

I shuddered, there's nothing worse than a stupid jock, to put it in a meaner way.

I rattled the keys in the lock trying to get it to open.

I walked in and was immediately bombarded with a thick and spicy scent wafting in through the kitchen. Man, they're going to need a hell lot of febrese to get rid of that.

I walked through the long hallway and up the grand staircase into the safe haven I call my room.

Yes my room, with it's delicious, chocolate coloured walls, blue comforter with brown polka-dots. Which my mom designed, when I was 12. Yes, that's how old the interior of this room is. At first I hated it, but then it started reminding me of cake, and who doesn't love cake?

I was about to up on my bed but stopped. No, not in the air stopped, it was like I froze in time. Well, not literally, I know that's not possible.

But that would be cool, I thought.

But there it was, the perfect dress I had always been dreaming for.

It was green, with gold sequins around the chest and the hem area. With it was a pair of gold ballet flats.

But wait, what is that I see? Oh a note, a note just for me.

Woah, why the hell did I just say that?

I should stop watching TV.

'Extreme de jevu' I thought while shaking my head clear.

Well, on to what the note says:

"Your to be in-laws are coming in an hour and get ready. Make yourself look like more of a girl!"

I gasped.

Dude, my mom was mad.

Aw, pooh.

Now I'm going to have to face the wrath of my mother.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I hope my in-laws will come early!

I came out of the washroom while drying my hair and immediately started putting on my clothes.

They were a perfect fit. Who knew my mom could pick clothes and also knew my size. I'm surprised.

I finished putting on all my makeup, prettying myself up and walked out of my bedroom.

I walked down the stairs and heard voices.

Oh great, they're here. Wahoo! Not.

I walked down the stairs, feeling like Cinderella when she finds her Prince Charming.

What I didn't notice was the spilled water at the bottom few steps of the stairs and guess what happen. Yupp, I tripped.

Everyone looked my ways. My dad with amusement, mom with anger, and I don't even care about the other three. But just to tell ya, they looked worried, and the guy looked.... Well like a guy, if that makes sense. Void of any emotions.

Great way to make an entrance Alice!

I waved my hand in the gesture of hello to lighten the mood. But I'm pretty sure I looked like an idiot with my dress risen high and my hair all over the place.

Suddenly the room erupted with laughter which was coming from my parents and the couple on the couch. I guess the guy couldn't help but smile too.

Oh the guy, yes the dude sure was hot, I thought dreamily. An almost exact replica of Alex Pettyfer, and I do love me some Alex Pettyfer.

This guy had some beautiful blonde hair wearing a beautiful white v neck with beautiful grey jeans and a pair of beautiful army style boots. He was the definition of a bad boy.

I think I said that loads of times and I should stop drooling. That would make me look like a creeper.

Uh oh, too late.

I've been staring at him a whole 2 minutes while my parents and the other couple were sitting there laughing.

I got up and cleaned myself off. I looked down and noticed I was wearing my ankle high shoes instead of my flats. Oh well, it still looked nice. Sort of.

"Well, I'm here," I said to my mom. My mom looked happy. I guess my major blunder was just too hilarious. No one can hold their laughter with Alice, aka me, around. I sure do feel proud.

"Ok hun, well this is Andrew, his parents, Mia and Jonathan." My mom said while pointing at each and every one of them.

"Hi" I said while waving again. One word, awkward.

They waved back, but the guy didn't. I mean how cliché, the guy is all tough and stuff, and he's to cool and angry to wave back. I mean hello, I didn't have a say in this either, but am I acting all, 'I'm Alice, I'm too cool to wave at my to-be fiancé because I'm too cool.' Ok, that was a majorly fail impression of him but I never said I was good at acting.

But no, I'm not acting like that. I may be really mad, but still.

"Ok, now that you guys know each other's names, we'll give you some alone time," Mia said.

Oh lord no!

That's the only thing I thought before they left, and I was left alone with the devil himself.

Ok so I was going to make the dude's name Adrian because I think, I'm not sure, that Adrian means "the dark one." But the title isn't Tying the Knot with the "Dark One" so I decided to make it something that means Prince which is Andrew. And Mia is pronounced Ma-ei-a If that helps at all :S But please VOTE COMMENT FAN!**Unedited**
