Valentine on Valentines Part 1
"Happy Valentine's Day everyone" my mother sung as we all sat down at the table "a day to celebrate us, can you imagine" she smiled
"I don't think it works like that mum" Ed chuckles and she smiles playfully
" we'll dear, if there's one thing I'm gonna teach you is that in life you have to be an opportunist sometimes, so lets take advantage of a day named after us" she teases and I can't help but giggle as I sip on my fruit juice
"Excited for Paris, my dear?"Mum smiles as she looks at me
"I don't know ... I suppose , nothing out the ordinary" I say nodding , I looked to my dad who was too focused on his phone for my liking.
"Daddy" I blurt our impulsively "uh, are you excited for the Valentines party tonight" I smile while I cut up pieces of my waffles
"Of course sweetie , why wouldn't I be?" He says not taking his eye of the phone
"Well you haven't really been around lately" I chose my words carefully not wanting to cause a feud so early in the morning, he stops and looks up at me for a moment. His eyes bore into my as he raise an eyebrow
"Really ? Well I'm sorry dear, it's just been hectic in the office - how about this , I'll give you some extra money and you can go buy that Louis Vuitton travel B-"
"I already did... last time"
"Oh" his voice was filled with shock as he's caught off guard, I can't help but sigh as I look down at my waffle suddenly losing my appetite "well , why not get that Chanel bag you've been wanting? The cute black one with the gold chain" he smiles as he watches me.
"I'm gonna finish getting ready to leave , Ed I'm leaving in 5" I state flatly as I excuse myself and head off to my room.
The annoyance was dripping in slowly and I could feel my cheeks turning a slight pinkish color. As I brushed my teeth I watched my black and Gold Ted Baker suitcases sit in front of me, ready to leave for a weekend in Paris. I just had to get through one day of school, a party then I'd be off and living my best life in Paris with the only love of my life.
Once I finished grabbing the last of my things I picked up my handbag and stormed downstairs making my presence heard through the manor.
"Edmund I'm leaving!" I shout as I walk through the doors where Paul patiently standing outside the car
"Good morning Julie, would you like to stop for coffee?" He ask, I checked my watches seeing how much time I had to spare
"Yes,please" I answer and he nods accordingly "If Edmund's not here in 45 seconds, we leave" I demand as he closes the door after me. Paul was my chauffeur, everyone knew that. If you wanted Paul to drive you anywhere - you asked me first. We all had our Own disgusted chauffeur, for schedule reasons of course, but for some reason, Edmund wanted to drive with me to school.
"Someone's infuriated, are you having a case of daddy issues?" Ed teases as he enters the car, I can't help but glare at him before turning my head and starring out the windows
"Fuck off, Ed" he stops and watches me intensely not staid another words
"You're really pissed off aren't you?" His voice was gently and genuine, he cared.
"Drop it already"
"You know he loves you? He adores you with everything in -"
" I said drop it" I snapped and he shut his mouth clenching his jaw as he nodded, not saying another word.
