Darcy's P.O.V

I sigh

  Tonight is the night I'll meet the Styles family. I'm supposed to marry this guy named Harry as my dad would always say. I can't disobey him though, no matter how ugly that Harry guy might be.

At least he has a sister, so that's a plus on this situation. I've always wanted a sibling but I don't get to have one.

The doorbell rings loudly indicating they're here. I stood up from the couch and waited by the doorway with my parents.

Mum opened the door to reveal Anne and Robin. They exchanged embraces as they greeted each other. Then Anne turned to me with a gigantic grin plastered on her face that doesn't even seem to age.

" Oh my! How you've grown! Last time I saw you was when you were running around the lawn screaming that you love chocolate " She said

I tried to cover my blush with hands but I guess she saw because she laughed a bit.

Then  a curly haired lad walked in with a very pretty girl.

They must be Harry and Gemma.

They walked over to Anne and I. Harry was looking down while his hands was shoved into the pockets of his jeans. Gemma hugged me so tight that I think my bones just cracked.

" I can't believe I'm gonna have a sister! I've waited so long for this moment! "

She finally let go of me. Glad she thinks the same as me. She nudged Harry rather harder than necessary cause he mad an 'oompf' sound.

He glared at her then turned to look at me. I don't know why but his eyes went wide as saucers.

Harry's P.O.V

I just looked at the floor pretending it was the most interesting thing in the world.

I hate mum and Robin

They forced me to marry a total stranger.

I've always kept my eyes on a particular girl from YouTube. I call her YouTube girl. I know , original right? pfff.

Then suddenly, Gemma nudged me so strong that I made an 'oompf' sound. I glared at her and turned to the brunette in front of me. Then I recognized her face.

It's her...

It's her...

It's her...

That's YouTube girl. I can't believe it. Even though I may have a tiny bit of feelings for her, that's not enough for marriage.

I mean , yeah she's gorgeous and nice but I'm just crushing on her.

I'm not gonna tell anyone though. Only my best mates know about this arranged marriage and girl I've been crushing on for months.

They might not believe me if I'm going to marry 'that' girl. Yes, I'm calling her 'that girl' now. Problem? no? okay, good. She's staring at me intently with her electric green eyes.

" Ermm..Hey I'm Harry "

I put my right hand forward for her to shake but she just looked at it. I just shrugged and dropped my hand to my side. I'm okay with that. To think that we'll be going to the same school.

Her eyes flicked to me.

" Sorry,  I was being rude, I'm Darzhalite, but you can call me Darcy " she smiled at us.

I could tell that she's shy around people, that's why she didn't shake my hand. Her name sounds so familiar. I know! I wanted to name my first daughter Darcy.

I smiled at her. Even though we have no say in this marriage, we could be good friends. She's the type of girl who everyone would like to have around.

I didn't even notice I was staring at her a grin on my face. I probably looked creepy. Our parents called us for dinner so we went to the kitchen.

Our parents were already seated so only me, Gemma and Darcy were the ones left. Darcy took a seat next to her mum and there was an empty chair on her right side. Gemma brushed past me to go sit next to Darcy but I grabbed her elbow.

"Let me sit next to her "

She raised her right eyebrow but said nothing and went to sit to the other remaining chair across from Darcy. I sat down and tapped her shoulder.

"Hey, I just want you to know that I want to be friends"

I said to her. I could feel the blush creeping to my cheeks. I looked over to her her to find her smiling at me.

Darcy's P.O.V

I can't how cute he looked while blushing
