Charlie's POV:

'Oh Sweetie! You look adorable! You should be the bride!'

'When are you getting married? huh? Buying cats already?'

'Aww... It's Celine's turn... wait. You're not married?'

'And I thought you were gonna get married first.'

The things your relatives say that annoy you so much that you just want to scream at them and pull out all your hair. Visiting your relatives after a long time of not seeing each other, and especially that you're a middle aged single woman is just calling for trouble, I should have seen the red flags once I got into that stupid red gown. Going around giving invitations to my relatives was the worst idea that Celine has ever made aside from the butterflies flying right as she walks down the aisle.

"I think this Lee guy is into you," Stella said as we were on a night off just lying around munching on different foods in the kitchen. "I think... this Lee guy is full of bull crap." I said as I searched my refridgerator for a bottle of beer. "You think that this Lee guy is a stocking full of rich candy... and you can't have him since it is not your name on the stocking." Stella said, I popped my head out, couldn't believe that she would say that. "Stella? really?" "Sorry" she muttered. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, "Who is it!?" I shouted as me and Stella looked at each other wondering who would be knocking on my door at 9pm on a Saturday night.

"Charlie Poo!! We brought chips and Ice cream... and movies!!" Celine's voice could be heard from the other side of the door. "Nobody's home!" I shouted as I was about to escape from the balcony but Stella grabbed my arm and whispered "Celine brought Lee, you just shouted... we can't leave them there or you'll know what Celine will do," she reminded me. The last time me and Stella didn't open the door for Celine she broke down the door using the fire alarm kit axe. I just groaned as I went to open the door which was still jammed. I then saw Celine and Lee standing in the entrance holding bags of food and movies. "Movie marathon!!" Celine shouted

"Do you understand the word personal space?" I asked but Celine just pushed right through me and ran towards the living room. "I brought the movies that Lee are in!! Which one do you want to watch first!?" she shouted I then turned my head and glared at Lee, "I'm so sorry Charlie but Celine really wanted to come here." he tried to convince me that he was innocent. Pssh.. not even his puppy eyes can't do the trick. "Apology not accepted," I said as I did a sarcastic smile. He then walked in as I slammed the door which made an ugly creaking sound. "Oo-ooh! What about Twilight Breaking Dawn 2... Lee is so hot there! Or Oo-ooh! The Hobbit!!" Celine was overly excited while I was dying but soaring at the same time. Every time I was with Lee I am like standing on my toes from feeling so high.

Lee was in the kitchen putting the Ice cream away, "You deal with Mr. Tall man in the kitchen while I deal with the shrilling seal in the living room," Stella said as she winked at me. I groaned one more time as I entered the kitchen. "How did my relatives react to the invitations?" he asked, I helped him by putting the chips into the bowl. "They kept asking me if I was the bride." I replied. I was blushing like a tomato when his relatives thought I was the bride and started commenting on how beautiful I was. "They are family. And how about yours?" Lee asked once more, "Annoying but since they're family I love them!" I quickly said. "Let me guess, you're not a family person?" "What is this 20 questions?" I asked

"Well, we are gonna be family soon?" he said which made my skin crawl. It felt like a centipede was crawling on my skin. "Look at it as a brother and sister bonding," he said, no-- let me change that. A fat centipede crawling. "Okay... Big bro, what is your full name?" I asked "Lee Grinner Pace." No wonder he grins a lot. "Yours?" he asked "Charlotte Blue Swan." I answered. "Nice name."

"Are you really a movie star or are you playing tricks with my sister?"

"I truly am. Your sister has the movies to prove it. My turn, You're not a family person are you? Why?"

I think that was two questions but I was too distracted by his grin. "No, my family is a class A perfectionist. They love and cherish my sister, always comparing me to her. That's all I'm admitting... not my turn... why are you and Celine here?" I know there must be something else that they're here for, free wedding plan. Yeah, that must be it.

"Because I suggested it." he answered leaving an awkward silence between us.

"Lee!! Come on the hobbit is just starting!!" Celine whined like a little girl. "I'm coming!" Lee called out. He then started making his way to the living room and for some reason my hand shot out to his and stopped him. "Why?" He then looked into my eyes and said "Because I wanted to see you." and just like that I let him go. It was really hard to breath right now, I didn't know what was right to feel. Loathe towards him that he is semi cheating on my sister or thrilled because he feels the same way. I hated that my heart just fluttered, it wasn't right to just fall in love with a guy in just a few days of knowing him. I bet Taylor Swift can write a song about this.

"Hey Charlie, you alright?" Stella asked as she came in the kitchen eating a bowl of chips. Even when my heart was fluttering like a school girl and my knees were weakening like fan girl, still what was eating my guts out was the fact that the man that I have feelings for is my sister's groom and I'm their wedding planner. I do not hang out with the groom so I could get closer to him and in high hopes he leaves the bride for me. No. I am a professional.

"I. am. a. Professional!!" I yelled as I grabbed the glass from the table and smashed it on the ground.

And I lost it.
