1 guy, 5 girls (Completed)

The festival Pt.2

The time we spent at the festival was amazing. Lily and I ate some cotton candy and played a few games, all while arm in arm with each other. Once the remaining two hours we had was up, Lily and I met up with the twins, along with the other two girls, "Alright, our time is up. Ruby, Diamond, it's time for us to have some fun," Almost instantly, Ruby jumped on my back, "Yay! Finally, we can be with big bro!"

Diamond then grabbed my left hand as we started walking. The booth they wanted to meet at was properly open the time we arrived. The booth they wanted to go to was a... fortune teller? I don't really believe in this crap, but I'm going to have to play it off, "So, why do you girls want to go to this fortune teller?"

"We want to know how well a marriage with you would go in the future," I guess that's obvious, "Alright, let's go in," Once we entered tent, it was dark and ominous with a dark aura filling my body, "Ugh, my body feels weak in here," It wasn't long until we heard a voice not far from us call us out, "So, have you come here to retrieve your fortune? Or have you come to see you future? Perhaps if your marriage in the future will work out, or perhaps you would like to see if your crush is truly the one."

This is just extremely weird, but I know for a fact that they're going to choose what there future will hold, "We want to know... if we married our brother... will it would go well in the future," This stumbled the fortune teller, weirdly, we have yet to see her, "Sorry, but we're not blood related. I honestly find it hard to believe that they actually want this."

I really don't believe in this crap at all, but I am curious of what she has to say about this, "V-Very well then... so, when were you born young man?" What does my birth date have to do with anything. Nevertheless, I complied and gave her my birth date, and so did the twins, "I see, for you two, Ed and Ruby... the chances of your marriage succeeding, is 92%."

92%! That's pretty high, that's pretty cool, "Yes! Oh, what about Diamond?" The fortune teller pauses for a short time, adding a nervous chuckle. I knew what this meant, "D-Diamond and Ed, the chances of your marriage being a success is... 0%..."

Both Ruby and I stepped back in shock, but Diamond remained still, "I see, maybe brother and I are incompatible...," She spoke in her same emotionless tone, but from what I heard... it felt a little forced. I knew for a fact that she thought we would have a bigger compatibility rate, but to no avail... we didn't.

"U-Uh, thank you... we'll be going now," I left a 25$ bill on the table and the three of us left, "So, um, how about we go check out a few more stalls here," Ruby shook her head in agreement. We spent the remaining time checking a few other stalls. But, as time flew by, Ruby needed to use the bathroom, "Big brother! I need to use the restroom!"

"Alright, but don't say that out loud in public...," We gained the attention of parents and there kids, "Oh, alright, Diamond... do you need to use it too?"

"No, I am fine Ruby," Ruby shook her head and took my hand, "C'mon big brother! Come in there with me!" I blush madly and stammer my words, while still avoiding the stares of close by mothers, "N-No! I c-can't do that!"

"Aw, ok big brother...," She walked in, with her head hanging low. As I regained composure, I then looked at Diamond who's just standing still with her same emotionless expression. I remembered to earlier today and started talking to her, "So, that fortune teller was something, wasn't she?"

Diamond nodded her head, while adding a little 'yeah' to it. I feel bad, not about having an unsuccessful marriage with her, but how she would feel about not having one. I look down at her, and sigh, "Something wrong Ed?"

I nod my head and look down at her, "No... actually yeah, something is wrong," She tilts her head in confusion and I continue, "You aren't... the same. Usually, your emotionless expression isn't forced like it is now. Did what the fortune teller say mess with you in any way?"

She looked down at the ground and responded, "What do you think Ed? I was told that a marriage with you would fail miserably. How would you react if you found if love someone, and can't be with them," She wanted to yell, but she didn't want to attract attention. I saw tears fall from her face, I felt obligated to comfort her in her time of need, "Listen, don't believe what that fortune teller says... the only way we know is when it happens. Don't let it get to you."

As I knelt down to meet her gaze, I saw a smirk grow on her face, "Oh, are you saying that you would marry me?" Wait, what? "What do you mean by that?" "Isn't it obvious, it sounded you would choose me to be your bride. If so, then I'll gladly accept," I pause and think about what I said earlier.

The more I thought about what I said and blushed at my older comment, "O-Oh, uh...," It was then I was instantly tackled into a hug by Diamond, "I accept Ed!" This wasn't like Diamond at all, "D-Diamond, why are acting like this now? I thought you were supposed to be emotionless?"

"That was just a ploy, in reality, I'm just like Kat and Ruby!" Oh no... well, at least she's not as emotionless as I thought she was. That would be too cliche.

"I see... *Sigh* whatever," I heard Ruby walk out whistling and saw us hugging, "Hey! Why are you two hugging. He's supposed to be my future husband!" Oh no, they're going to start yelling, "Too bad, he has already proposed to me! And we're going to be happy together," Why did she yell that out loud. I could hear the chattering between the onlookers of our situation. Comments like: 'Sibling marriage... how disgusting' or 'That is just horrendous. Marrying your younger sisters'

Damn it, why does it have to be me in this situation?! At least next is Sena, I can finally have a normal time with her. Actually, I might jinx myself... damn it...
