《My holy matrimony (Complete)》T E N
Advertisement
Apparently the tv show interview we're going to is called Celeb Dot Com. You can just here by the name that it only features celebrities only. So the question that runs through my head is, how many people are going to watch it?
"Can you please stop moving around your sit?" Leo asks in annoyance without even looking up from his phone.
I bite the inside of my cheek and look out the window. I can't even think of a good reply because of how nerves I am. Don't blame me, it's not like my parents ever took me to interviews or anywhere where the media was involved.
The rest of the ride there was quiet, the only sound heard was the clicking of Leo's thumbs typing and the engine of the car, and if you'd hear carefully, the sound of my rapid heartbeat.
"We've arrived sir." The driver says as he opens the door on my side first.
I slowly step out of the car and as soon as I do, the flashes of light blind my eyes.
What?! Paparazzi? I didn't know that they'd be here.
I don't have time to scold Leo for not telling me as he quickly, and swiftly, take my hand into his and intertwines them.
The blush rushes to my cheeks in embarrassment. I'm not used to this.
Numerous bodyguards help us walk past the paparazzi, one even going as far as pushing some guy out of the way.
Is this his life everyday?
Soon, we are inside the large building, or in other words, Celeb Dot Com. We entered from the backdoor which is only for the guest stars, the host and the crew team.
As soon as we entered, a group of crew members, with blue shirts and the name of the show name, came rushing to us.
"Good afternoon Mr and Mrs O'Neil, my name is Viggy and if you'd just follow me so that we can get you ready in 15 minutes." One girl in glasses says to us and walks of with us following her.
We get to where I think is the backstage and there, in a large red sit, sits the host, Amanda Eron wearing a baby pink jumpsuit. It suits her perfectly.

As the crew wires the mic to us, Amanda notices us and walks towards us with a large grin.
"Oh my gosh, you're here!" She exclaims happily. This is when I really notice how beautiful she is, with her caramel skin, beautifully styled black afro, average size and all the curves in the right places, and her light brown eyes. I also heard that her mother is originally from South Africa, which explains how beautiful she is.
All in all, Amanda is a goddess.
"We wouldn't have missed it for the world." Leo replies with a smile, a smile he hardly shows around me.
My heart clenches a bit at that, but I push the thought away. Silly me, they're just friends. I hope.
Amanda finally turns to me with the same smile. "And you must be Alison. " She states.
I nod with a smile. I can't help it, her smile is contagious. It's like you can't help but reciprocate it. "I am, nice to meet you."
Just then, one of the crew member, with a an earpiece, walks to us. "Mam', we're on in ten." He says.
Amanda turns back to us with a smile. "Well all see you soon then."
As she moves away, Leo turns to me. "Are you okay? I know that this may be a bit too much for you because you've never done this before." He asks with a concerned expression.
I smile at that because I definitely was not expecting it. "Yes, don't worry, I'm okay."
Am I?
~~
It has been exactly 30 minutes of me sitting backstage and exactly 10 minutes of Leo being up on stage with Amanda.
They have been discussing Leo's present life including business, popularity and things like that. But what I hear next surprises me.
"Now time for the question that's one everyone's mind. What's this about you having a, not a girlfriend but a fiance?" The crowd goes into a string of oohs at that.
I swear I choked on my own saliva. I thought I was ready but turns out I'm not.
Oh Lord, why couldn't my husband be a normal person?

"You know what, let's just bring her out." Amanda says, and that was my que to stand up and walk behind the curtain waiting for an introduction. "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Leo's fiance, Alison!"
I walk into the set. The bright lights causing my eyes to squint, and the cheers of the crowd causes me to only think about one thing:
"Please don't trip and fall on your face, please don't trip and fall on your face."
When I get to where Leo and Amanda are, Amanda stands up and hugs me, again but this time in front of all these people.
She gestures me to sit down beside Leo which I do. Immediately after sitting, Leo surprises me by taking my hand and intertwining it with his. I try to keep a calm face at that, after all, no one told me we would be touchy touchy.
Amanda flashes us a bright smile and looks at me. "I was just asking about you," she points to me with a little notebook which I'm guessing has all the things she wants to ask. "If you don't mind me asking, was it really love at first sight for you two?" She asked, yet again looking at me.
I fake a smile, "Of course it wasn't, but after a few times meeting and him not giving up so easily, and soon enough, the neutral feeling I had for him turned into love." I say the last part while looking at Leo. He too looked at me, but with an emotion I couldn't pinpoint.
"How about you Leonardo? Was it love at first sight?" She asks.
Without wasting a second, he responded. "For me it was. The first time I saw Alison I was definitely awestruck by how beautiful she is. She look sweet, innocent and as I said, extremely beautiful. And when I got to know her well, everything became clear and complete. " He answers.
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. I think my heart just skipped a bit, or is about to stop. I don't know, that was sweet.
Calm down Ali.
The crowd immediately 'awe's at that whilst Amanda grinned at us.
"So what next from here?" She asks the two of us.
I look at Leo to see if he'd answer that, but he just nods at me letting me know to take it.
"Well, as you know we're still planning a wedding though we don't have a wedding date yet. That's all we can say," I state. But it's all a lie. Ever since I've gotten here, there hasn't been any talk about the wedding or for how long we will be married for.
Amanda claps her hands once and rests them on her lap. "Now it's almost the end of the show but before that can we please have one request?"
I look at her with an uncertain face. "Okay." Leo says.
"Can you two please kiss. I mean, America would definitely like to see this year's number one loved couple doing it right?" The crowd shouts yes in excitement.
Would they also want to see us having sex too? ~ I think sarcastically.
Leo and I both turn to each other. Whereas I have a panicked look, Leo is calm as ever. How does he do that?
We both start to lean into each other slowly and just like that, Leo's warm lips touch mine. They only move in tune for a few seconds before we pull apart. And all this time, his hand was resting on my cheek and my hand on his shoulder.
We pull apart and look into each other's eyes but the sound of the crowd erupting into cheers causes us too avert our eyes elsewhere.
"That's it for today ladies and gentlemen. From us Celeb Dot Com, we goodnight and goodbye." Amanda says to the camera.
It was at this moment when one thought roamed my mind.
I don't know if I would be able to withstand this because my heart definitely won't.
