Ivy's POV

Breathe Ivy, breathe.

I parted my lips to make my breathing much easier as my chest fell and rose as I tired to keep it together.

This wasn't happening. It isn't real.

I told myself.

Dad and mum wouldn't do this to me. They weren't the kind of parents to force me to get married.

...or so I thought.

What the heck is going on.

"...Ivy..." I heard a voice but it was so distant.

"...Ivy" I was snapped out of my reverie

I looked up at my parents and froze.

It's all real.

It's happening for real.

My parents wants me to get married.

"Honey, are you alright?" Mum asked concerned

I swallowed the heavy lump in my throat.

"Ivy, are you alright?" Dave sat forward in his chair and looked at me with worry

I got up slowly not facing anyone of them

"You can all stop the act" I said quietly "The only thing you're all worried about is getting me married"

"Munch...?"

"No dad!" I snapped looking up at him with tears blurring my vision "You don't get to call me that again. I can't say No to you but clearly you can" I paused "You're not just shattering my dream, dad, you're ruining my life" I walked out of his office, well more like ran

"Ivy...?!" They all called after me as I ran out of dad's office

I snatched my car keys from the key holder and ran outside and into my car.

"Ivy!" Dave burst through the doors as I drove away crying so hard I almost couldn't see the road.

I calmed myself down enough to drive to my destination.

I arrived there ten minutes later with my throat feeling soo sore from the heavy lump there. I got out of the car holding it together as I walked towards the door.

I knocked.

My breathing had become heavy. The door finally opened.

"Sweetheart wha...?" I looked up at gramps "Ivy, what happened?"

The tears came rushing as I hugged him
"Gran'pa" I cried into his shoulder as his arms sent round me, protective-ly

"Thomas who's...?" She paused "Ivy? Oh My God, what happened?"

I pulled away from gramps and hugged grams

"Lets get you inside" she said as she pulled me into the house and made me sit as she went to get a glass of water.

"Here. Drink this" she said, band by me the glass

I drank all of it and placed the glass on the table top

"Now tell us what happened sweetheart" Gramps said

I sighed inwardly.
"Dad wants me to get married" I blurted out

"What?!" They both exclaimed

"Next week" I said

They were both shocked

"To Dave" I dropped the final bomb, not technically the final one

Their eyes were almost popping out of their sockets
