"Ella, I'm going to go work now. I'll be back later, to have lunch with you" he kisses my forehead, and grabs his briefcase.
I nod as he walks out of the living room.
Yesterday Damon explained everything to me.
I called dad, this is how our conversation went.
"Why didn't you tell me, dad?"
"A hello would be nice. How are you won't hurt as well" he replies
"Hello. How are you? Why didn't you tell me that I was going to get married?" I ask and I hear him sigh
"At that time, it was just so we could humiliate them. When the marriage is announced into the media, we would cancel, saying that he's on drugs. But now- now Damon has more money than us, so it will benefit us."
"Dad, you have no money. You have no business" he chuckles
"You and your sister only have $10000 in your banks. Your mother and I on the other hand, have the remaining money of the business" I roll my eyes
"Fine. I don't want to talk about how much money you never told us about, you have. I'm not going to cancel on the wedding." I say
"So how is everything? Are you enjoying yourself? Is Aubrey working good?"
After that I explained everything to my dad about work and how it was actually easy. I asked how mom was, and dad said she was enjoying herself on the beach with a few people.
Sometimes I feel sorry for my dad, because he loves mom a lot, and once she got married to him, she keeps her distance a little. But dad keeps her on a tight hold. She knows that they both get a divorce, she'll get nothing.
My real mother died, when I was 2. She died in an accident with some teenage girl. They both died on impact.
Aubrey isn't my real sister. She's my step sister.
Aubrey is nice to me. She knows that ever since my mom died, I had to work my behind off to make mother happy. But she was never happy.
And when Aubrey was born, both of my parents concentrated on her. Giving her everything she wanted.
I never give a Fudge now.
The front door opens, and in walks Austin.
"Oh hey Gabi. Are you not going to work?" I shake my head
"Damon said that he only wanted me to work, because I had to be close to him. Now that I know about the marriage, I can stay home. And I appreciate this more than walking." I say and he nods
"So you know about the marriage?" I nod
"I just came to get the files for the party" he says
"When is it?" I ask
"Tomorrow. You have to come as well" I gasp
"Really? How is this party? Do I have to wear a gown? Or can I wear jeans?" I stand up
"A gown. It's a formal party. It's thrown every year, because of Damon's business. He gives everyone a day to enjoy and he pays for everything. The food, the drinks, the small shopping stall installed. There's always a different game, that everyone plays"
"I have to go shopping." I whisper staring at him with huge eyes.
"Okay. Then go. I need to get those files." He walks upstairs.
After a couple of minutes, he comes back with a few files in his hand.
"I'll wait for Damon to come back. And then we'll go shopping" I say and he nods.

"Ok. See you later" he waves and walks out of the house.
I know I have a lot of dresses upstairs, but I just want to go shopping.
I mean there is no fun in knowing that there is so many clothes upstairs, but you haven't bought any yourself. Right?
Well I'll just make a cake.
I can bake. Not cook.

"Ella! I'm home!" I hear Damon's voice.
I wipe my hands on my apron, and walk out of the kitchen.
"Hi" I smile and he smiles back.
"Hey. How was your day?" I shrug
"It was good. I made chocolate cake" he smiles
"What's the occasion?" He follows me to the kitchen.
"Well I heard there-"
"Do you want to go shopping?" he asks nervously
"Yes! It's like you read my mind! Wait! Did Austin tell you?" He nods
"I was thinking we could go now, and we'll eat there as well" I nod looking down at myself.
Black shorts and a lace purple top, with a white crop top underneath. Perfect.
"Let's go" I say, taking my apron off, and putting it on the stool.
He holds my hand, and pulls me out of the kitchen slowly.
"Damon, how long do we have, because you still have to go back to work" I say walking out of the house, and towards the car.
"I cancelled all my work for today. I'm the owner of the business, Ella. I can leave when ever I want" I nod slowly sitting in the car. He closes the door and runs around the car, and sits in his seat.
"Oh, this letter came for you at work" he hands me an envelope.
I open it up and pull the paper out.
Getting married? Fuck you Gabi.
You won't and I won't allow you to get married. Not when I'm here.
I'll kill everyone.
Just come to me. And I'll leave everyone alone.
You know who this.
I scrunch up the paper, as he starts driving.
"What's wrong?" I shake my head
"It's just garbage" I throw it out of the window.
He nods as I stay quiet.
"So you want to buy a dress?" I nod
"I have my money, and my card as well. The main reason is that I like to shop" he nods
"I'll pay okay? Don't use your card" I shake my head
"No. Damon I have enough money to buy my things. You have to let me spend" he sighs
"Why do you have to spend when you have me? I can buy things for you. Ella, I have a lot of money and your smile is priceless. I want to make you smile" I blush
"Fine. Don't cry when I spend a lot" I say as he parks the car outside of the mall.
"I won't. Ella, I bought a few guards with me, because well-" he shrugs and I nod.
"I understand" he smiles slightly, then wears his sunglasses.
He gets out of the car and walks to my door.
He opens it, but I sit inside.
"Can I get sunglasses? We'll look cool! Well as cool as a guy in a suit and a girl with short on gets, bu-" he covers my mouth with his hand again.
"I don't have another pair, but we can buy one. Now come on. We need to go" he picks me up, bridal style, and helps me stand up.
"Was that necessary?" I ask and he chuckles.
"Yep. Hundred percent necessary" he holds my hand, and closes the car door.

I notice 10 bodyguards stand behind us.
"When you said a few, you meant 10. We really need to work on your numbers" I mumble under my breath.
"Just pretend that you can't see them. Let's go" he pulls me inside the mall.
A few people notice him, and stare, then they walk forward towards him.
They get stopped by the bodyguards.
"It's kind of hard not too" I say and he sighs
"So how do you shop?" I turn to him, and he looks down at me, his sunglasses placed on his head.
"Don't look at me like that Ella. I know how to shop, I was just asking how girls shop. Guys shopping is easy. Just go into one shop, pick what you like, and then leave" I smile.
"Well, I'll show you" I pull him into the first shop.

"Ella! Can we stop now" he groans behind me.
"We still have to get my dress" I sigh looking behind me to see him taking his blazer off. He hands it to one of the guards.
Damon was right. The guards didn't cause any problems. They only came and stood around us in a circle, when people tried to get a picture.
Damon is like- actually he is a celebrity. He's been on TV for interviews, had photo shots done.
"Ella, can we just take a rest." He places the five bags on the floor.
I nod sitting on the bench next to him.
"I'm going to go and get a water bottle. I'll be back in a second" he kisses my forehead, and walks behind me.
I was actually tired as well. But I wanted to see how long Damon was going to last.
Only the first floor.
My initial idea was just to come and get a dress and some shoes and then leave. But then I saw some really nice tops, and some shorts. It's been really hot.
And then I saw some bikini's on sale. I just had to buy them.
All those different colours,wow. I had seen a really nice teal blue colour, with a white poker dots, for $8. The only problem was that it was a size small in me.
But still. The price was amazing.
I should go back for it.
"Miss, can you follow us please? Mr Knight wants you to come to the first floor" one of the guards says and I nod, standing up.
I should get it. It's like fates telling me to buy that bikini.
They pick up the bags but I shake my head.
"I'll get them" they shake their heads, motioning me to move forward.
Fine.
I walk towards the elevator, and stand inside with 5 guards with me. The other five went with Damon, I think.
"So... how are you?" I ask
"Good"
"Fine"
"Great"
"Fantastic"
"Good. How are you?" One of them asks
"I'm good. Happy actually. I have no idea why" I shrug as the doors open.
I step outside, and the people move out of the way.
I gasp.
I see Damon on one knee, with a ring in his hand, and rose petals around him, spelling out I love you.
"Damon.." I whisper walking closer to him.
"Gabrielle Anderson. I know we haven't known each other for a very long time, but I know that my heart only beats for you. It's weird. I've never felt this happy in my life, and you just make me smile. I know that we don't know a lot about each other, but I hope you'll give us a chance, and let us work. I hope you'll love me as much as I love you. Will you make me the happiest man- more happy than I am now- and will you marry me Ella? Will you officially become Mrs Knight?" He asks, smiling at me slightly.
I nod slowly, a smile on my face.
He grins.
He pulls the ring out of the box, and places it on my finger.
All of a sudden, red heart shaped balloons fall down from the ceiling, with rose petals.
Damon stands up, and hugs me tightly, spinning me around.
"I love you" he whispers into my ear.
I smile.
"I know" he chuckles, pulling me closer.
I close my eyes quickly as paparazzi flash photos of us.
"I found a perfect dress for you" he whispers, putting me down.
I smile up at him.
He smiles back at me, and leans down, kissing my cheek.
"We need to give a good photo for the newspapers for tomorrow right?" He smiles slightly at me.
"Asshole" I slap his chest.
He gasps.
"You swore" I cover my mouth.
"Oh fudging biscuits. It's been 2 months since I stopped swearing. I'll have to start again" I shake my head.
He chuckles.
"Let's go" he holds my hand tightly.
"The dress?" I ask and he nods.
The bodyguards follow us, stopping the paparazzi.
He walks inside a shop, which I didn't catch the name of.
The bodyguards stand outside, as the paparazzi flash photos of us.
I look outside at them. They're flashing photos like as if the world is ending.
"Ella,what do you think of this?" Damon calls.
I look at him, and the dress he's holding in his hands.
"Woah" I whisper looking at the purple ombre dress in front of me.
"Is that a yes or no?" He asks
"A yes! You have just a good taste Damon" I smile at him, walking closer.
"Really?" He asks as I touch the dress
I nod.
"Yeah. Maybe a little more taste than me" he chuckles
"I don't think that's right" he says as he hands me the dress.
"Why don't you go wear it, and I'll wait for you" I nod walking towards the changing rooms, but I stop.
I walk towards him, and hug him tightly.
"Thank you Damon" he wraps his hands around my waist.
"For what?" I shrug
"I don't know. I just felt like saying it and hugging you" he chuckles
I let him go and walk towards the changing rooms but stop again.
"Damon, can you do me a favour?" He raises his eyebrow.
"In H&M there's that bikini, the one you chose? Can you go get it for me? Please?" I pout
"I thought it was too small?" He smirks
"I know, but it's at a really good price, and it's amazing. Can you? Please?" He nods
"You wear that, and I'll be back." He says, walking out of the shop.
I wish everyone gets a guy like Damon.
