~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Juliet- "I'm sorry.. fiancé?" I looked at Nathan .. I'm quite shocked really .. he has a fiancé ?!.. if I had known I would've never gone out with him... there were so many things going through my head at the moment !?!.. this is insane !?...
Nathan- "no.. Juliet let me explain.."
Scarlet- "what is there to explain ?"
Nathan- "no!.. that's not true and you know that !"
Juliet- "what do you mean ?"
Nathan- "our Fathers were very close .. so when Scarlet and I were 5 years old our parents wanted to make their friendship into family ...so technically we aren't engaged .. we are just promised to each other .." he finished .. he looked quite exhausted...
I looked over at Scarlet and I could see her smirking away..
Scarlet- "but a promise is a promise.. and the truth is we are promised to each other ...and back to business your mother thought it would be a great for publicity if you and I spent more time together publicly .."
Nathan- "WHAT ?!.. no no no no.. there is no way I'm going to spend the next few days with YOU !.. we tried and we both know how that ended .."
Juliet- "I think I'll give you two some space .." ... this is so complicated.. I'll just speak to Nathan later.. I went up to my room and changed into some pyjamas..I decided to have my dinner in my bedroom and decided to watch some Christmas movies to make me feel better...
"Juliet !.. wake up !.. you have to start getting ready or you'll be late !.." I could hear Sophie's faint voice ..wait .. I need to get up !!.. once I woke up I looked around the room to digest what was going on .. it was the next morning and Sophie and Alison seem to be stressed .."what is it ?" I ask .. "the Queen wants to make an announcement..you have to start getting ready !!!" Alison said in a rush .. I nodded and quickly hopped into the shower and started doing my hair and make up .. once I was done I decided to go with a dress because the Queen would be there so it must be a formal class today ..
"Good Morning Girls !" The Queen said .. we all curtsied and smiled in response ... I looked around the room and on one side of the room stood Rachel and Zoe and on the other side stood Nathan and Scarlet .. wait .... what !!? What is she still doing here ?!!
"I would like to introduce you all to Scarlet.. Nathan's Fiancé .." the Queen said and Scarlet walked forward and smiled at everyone and at the end she give me a little smirk ..I looked over at Nathan and he didn't even look at me .. in fact he kept avoiding eye contact and kept his head down .. what's going ?..
By now I could hear all the girls gasping and whispering.. "Scarlet will be joining us at the Palace for a week and will be helping out with Competition and the Classes .. I hope you all get along well and Good Luck !.. today's class is dismissed.." the Queen said with a smile ...
I can't believe it .. he has a fiancé and he couldn't even look me in the eye .. I decided to go up to my room and spend the whole day there .. and here I thought he actually liked me back and we could actually have a future ... I'm so stupid ..Once I went up to my room I changed into so joggers and a loose tshirt and put my hair into a bun.. I decided to read .. so I picked up the Harry Potter series and decided to read them for the 6th time ... I had been reading for the past 3 hours and then I heard a knock on my door .. I opened it and in came a tray full of food and Tom , Liam and Matt ... "what are you guys doing here ?.. I thought you were coming 4 days later ?.." I asked confused .."We heard that Scarlet was back so we thought we would come and visit you .." Matt said sympathetically.."you came all this way just for me?.. and the Queen and your parents were okay with it ?" I asked .. "well no.. they think we are here for Nathan and Scarlet and their engagement.. but the truth is we also wanted to see you .. " Liam said .. "so they are getting engaged .." I say and say down on the bed .. immediately all three of them joined me on the bed .. "I feel like such a fool .. honestly I feel used .." I say .. "I know but you have to understand that Nathan would never make this decision.. we think he is being forced .." Tom says looking at the other boys ..I really don't know what to think right now..."shall we eat ? I'm starving !!" I say breaking the silence..they all laugh and nod in agreement.. we all sat down at my small table and ate Pasta and Some salad ..
Juliet - "So how long are you guys here for ?" Matt - "a week I think !"..
Juliet - "so.. this Scarlet .. how long have you known her for ?" ..
Tom- "ever since we were kids really .. our parents were friends .."
Matt- "well we've known her for a while and she has never been nice !!"
Juliet- "did Nathan and Scarlet ever get together?"...
Liam- "umm.. uh.. ..."
Juliet- "never mind.. if it took you so long to say it then I already know..." I say rather sad..
Liam- "hey..but if it's any consolation... they only got together because of their parents .. Nathan never really liked her .."
Juliet- "thanks .." I reply with a smile ...
I decided to end whatever it is that I had with Nathan .. after all he was getting engaged...I walked up to his room and knocked ..
Nathan- "hey !" He said with a smile
Juliet- "hi... listen we have to stop whatever it is that was going on between us .." I say..
His face dropped I could see that he didn't like what I said and he wasn't okay with this engagement..
Juliet- "why are you doing this ?.. why are you getting engaged?.. I know your families promised each other but I'm sure they will understand.."
Nathan- " uhh.. it's not that simple .. it's very complicated..."
Juliet- "what is ?.."
Nathan- "I can't tell you ..." he said sadly ...
I just nodded ...
Juliet- "so when is it ?..."
Nathan- "tomorrow...."
he looked very sad... ugh!.. I wish I knew what was going on in his head !!! ...I hugged him goodbye and walked back to my room ...
After just lying in bed for a few hours I heard a knock on the door ...
Juliet- "Matt ! What are you doing here ?" I asked ...
Matt- "I thought you wouldn't want to be alone tonight.." he said with a soft smile ...
I smiled and he came and hugged me ..
we spent the rest of the night in silence.. we sat together in each other's arms and there was silence ...a comforting silence...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
