It was a beautiful day outside,yet all I could think about was how this particular day , is actually , anything but beautiful. Today is the day I vow myself to a man ... A man i barely know, a man that I used to be friends with and had a crush on , but he turned out to be satan's incarnation ... I am getting married to a man i don't love at the age of 21,pitiful isn't it ?
But I had no choice . For the sake of my family I had to do this."Earth to Eleanor , hurry up the guests are waiting "
"One second mom " okay eleanor deep breaths you can do this ...
"Oh my gosh sweetheart you look absolutely breathtaking "
*****author's note****
If you want to know how eleanor looked like at her wedding look at the picture posted with this chapter (if you haven't of course)
**************
"Thank you mum" I said faking a smile . I couldn't let her know my real feelings , I couldn't let her know that her daughter is about to enter an unhappy marriage it will break her heart and she will definitely stop this catastrophie from happening, but I need to get this over with , for her sake .... My family's sake . They've done so much to me and now it's time to pay them back , even if it evolves my own happiness
" I can do this .... i can do this .."
"Now , now ellie of course you can! My daughter is getting married to not only a gorgeous loving man but also the son of richard Mcqueen , one of the richest men ever and one hell of a business man , not to mention that your soon to be husband is not so bad himself since he took over Mcqueen's company it fame didn't cease to keep on growing and....."
"MOM"I interrupted her"i get it Evan is perfect and his family too just stop fangirling like seriously mom..."
" I can't help it ellie it's just that i'm so happy and proud of my daughter ! You're about to become a mcqueen honey their is no better honor than this to our family .."she began crying and kissing me , and this is why i should keep up with the plan , to keep her happy she can never find out that the man standing on the alter not only hates my guts but is anything but a gorgeous loving man ... Well who am i lying to he is gorgeous especially according to people magazine , he was named sexiest man alive ...
you know it's funny how most girls envy me right now , wanting to be in my shoes ... But I ... I wanted to be anywhere but here.
I was lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize that i entered that room...the room where future is about to be sealed .. My old man was standing right in front of me with his usual nice loving smile , his eyes were filled with tears
"My little baby is all grown up " he said while kissing my forehead "you look like an angel sweetheart, i'm so proud of you , you're finally growing up "
" now now dad i'm still 21 you make me feel like I'm already 30 and having my second babe hahahaha "
" it's true you're still young but you and i both know that you were always older then most girls your age..come on honey let's go I don't want to keep your husband waiting for you longer than this, he must be dying to see you"
Dying to see me .... If he only knew .... I bet he's waiting for me with a gun in his hand not a ring ....
We walked slowly on the beautiful red carpet while guests stood up looking at me like I was an alien ... Okay I'm exaggerating I know that all eyes must be on the bride but this attention made me more uncomfortable than I already was .
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize that right now I was standing in front of him ...he looked...BREATHTAKING..the dark suit he was wearing suited his body perfectly and his face was just so overwhelmingly beautiful and his deep green eyes were so bright and... and.... Full of hatred . A shiver ran down my spine while I saw the look he was giving me . But could I blame him? It was my fault that this was happening I could've stopped this but I chose my family's happiness over mine and his. He had every right to hate me , I deserve it ... I deserved all the bad words he had said to me last night too ... And the nights before. I deserve it all.
I am so sorry Evan . I wish i could tell you this but I can't. It wouldn't make a difference anyway . The truth is I don't know why I did this ... Was it really because of my family or because of the feelings that I had for you. Feelings I buried deep inside me a long time ago .. Or at least thought I did...
"Would you take Eleanor Rose Parker as your lawfully wife?"
"...yes"
I was clearly shacked out of my thoughts once again , but I just could not help it , focusing was an extremely hard task for me right now..
"Eleanor Rose Parker would you take Evan James Mcqueen as your husband?"
It's not too late to say no you know ... Who am I kidding there's no backing out now
"Yes I do"
"By the Power of newyork state I announce you now husband and wife, you may kiss the bride"
Fuck.... I totally forgot about this part , is he going to do it ? Because i literally don't have the balls to do it but by the look he was giving me right now it was clear that he wanted to spit on my face not kiss it...but can I blame him?
He came closer to me bent down ...*it's going to happen... The moment i dreamed about a long time ago* I thought to myself... I felt his sweet lips on mine and just as I was going to respond to his kiss he pulled away... A peck huh.... Well it's better than none right?
The rest of the wedding went terribly at least for me , evan haven't said a word to me or to anyone for that matter and I found it hard to fake happiness but thank god people didn't pay as much attention to us as they did to the gorgeous wedding reception we booked (an old castle reserved to special occasion and this was of course considered one since it was the marriage the heritor of the Mcqueen's )
And the mouthwatering food cooked by the best chefs in town and the list goes on and on ... This was the event of the year after all. And I hated every moment of it.
After long hours of faking smiles and exchanging conversations with people the wedding finally came to an end and it was finally time to go home... Oh wait it's my honeymoon ... I guess my brain still hadn't proceed the fact that I just got married and we were going to Bali to spend our honeymoon...
I hope that I come back sane from that trip ... I really do.
A limo was waiting for us outside. We rode in silence not even looking at each other till we finally reached the airport where the private jet was waiting for us. We got in took our seats and the flight began...I thought that we wre just going to keep on ignoring each other which was working for me but then he looked at me with a look that made me want to throw myself out of this airplane and burry myself in the ground...
"You know..." He said ...
TO BE CONTINUED...
