"If anyone should object to these two getting married, please speak now."
"Me. I object."
I wasn't expecting that.
It just kind of happened..
"I object. Because I am not in love with this man." I say. I don't know why I say it, but I do. It's kind of like one of those moments where your brain is telling you to stop but your body does it anyway. Like no don't eat another piece of cake, but your body shovels it down your throat.
Too graphic? Sorry..
"I'm not in love with Robert and I never have been."
I don't really hear anyone but I watch them gasp, the cameras flash, and I can see people whispering. But I swear. I'm deaf.
I pause before speaking again, "You want the truth? Well here it is. Robert's Mother is the only reason we are all here right now. She wanted us to get married, no clue why though, Paige? Do come up and tell everyone why you wanted us to get married."
It's like a scene from a movie, she laughs as though she has no idea what I am talking about. And some security guard looks at me and I nod, he goes over to Paige, takes her arm and brings her to the alter.
"I didn't do anything!" She exclaims.
But I am the queen of this country. I could have her beheaded if I wanted. I don't. But I could.
"You're gonna tell everyone here, why you wanted Robert and I to be wed." I tell her.
"I didn't! It was Robert! Robert loves you!" She exclaims, obviously lying.
"Mum," Robert mumbles.
"Fine!" She starts, "Robert liked some commoner.. And I didn't want that."
The crowd gasps once again and I hear some people whisper "Who is it?" "Who does he like?"
"Since when was I a commoner?" Lucy says, standing up from her seat, a few rows back. I didn't even know she was here.
Wait. Robert and Lucy? Now that's a couple I would never had expected.
"Lucy.." Robert whispers, as if he didn't know she was here either.
Trust me, I'm more confused than you are.
"Since always." Paige says angrily, storming down the seemingly endless carpet. Bursting her way through the doors.
Robert runs over to where Lucy is sitting and gives her the biggest kiss I've ever seen anyone give anyone.. Ever..
I'd like to imagine that that's how my parents would have kissed. I barely remember my mother. But I think that's how they would have kissed sometimes. Like maybe, it had been a while and they see each other, and they would grab each other, pulling one another into an embrace, trying to get as close as they can, as if they'll leave their side again. Kissing as though they'll never feel those lips again.
Okay at first that was cute but now I want to throw up. Lord, let me never imagine that of my parents again.
"Arabella," Robert begins, "You are the Queen of this country. I ask for your blessing." He asks.
Like what?
Actually what??
"What?" says Lucy.
I don't even know what's going on right now.
"Well, if Arabella and I aren't getting married because we aren't in love, why can't you and I marry? I love you Lucy."
Hehe.. I love Lucy.
"Oh my gosh!" Lucy shrieks excitedly.
"Well?" Asks Robert.
"Um, okay?" I reply.
So I'm pushed to a seat and then Lucy and Robert get married.
That was not expected.
It was like how you would expect a random spur of the moment marriage to go. They got married, we went to the reception because we paid for it. Y'know, the usual. Oh, and Lucy and Robert are going on the honey moon to Paris. So cliche. But they didn't mind anyway.
So yeah. That happened.
Afterwards I pretty much just went home. Took off my awful wedding dress. That was it. That was my night, and that was my wedding.
Lame, I know.
The next day wasn't.
I'm lying. It was so boring. Justine and I just sat eating food, watching TV.
Yeah.
My life sucks.
But don't get me wrong I don't think I'd trade it for the world.
Okay well I might if someone came up to me (seemingly legit) and was like "hey I'll give you the world if I can have your life" I'd probably say yes.
=============
I am so sorry.
No wait, let me start again..
HI OMG IT'S BEEN FOREVER I SUCK I KNOW.
But I went to Europe and before that i had exams and after Europe I was starting a new term at school. And not gonna lie, I'm super lazy.
I was going to add more into this chapter. It's super short but I don't want you guys to read a few hundred words on the colour or Arabella's poop or something you know? So much happened in this chapter. I mean a wedding that changed wedding and whatever I don't even know I can't keep up XD
I hope you guys are enjoying it and btw..
