《Arranged Marriage to The Devil》Chapter 5: Family Dinner
Advertisement
The smell of turkey from the kitchen smell's devine. I start looking inside my closet to see if I have anything to wear for tonights dinner. I swear if Andrew piss me off tonight, I'm not gonna be in charge of his injuries. "Lee, what should I wear? If I had a choice I would wear my sweats, a hoodie, and won't give a sh*t about the world." I whine
She bounce off the bed and stood beside me. She checked what I was looking at and pondered, "How about you wear this dress, these heals and straighten your hair. I'll help with that." She suggested
I glance at the outfit and thought about it for alittle bit. Maybe it won't look to bad? Grabbing my outfit, I step in the shower and began to wash my hair. After I washed my hair, I got out and put on my robe then blow dried my hair. After my hair was perfectly dried, I put my hair in a low pony tail, I slipped on my dress and taken out my make-up. "Lee, you ready??" I yelled out.
She came inside my room wearing a black dress that reached to her mid-thighs. Her make up was a smokey eye look that makes her eyes misterious with bright red lips. Her hair was curled but her bangs were straighten in front of her face to make her have a little shy side also. "Ready to do your hair?" She asked
I given her a boring look, "What do you think the whole point of calling you? Hurry up before they arrive and mom will kill us for not being ready on time."
She let out a giggled and turned on the straightner, I sat down on a small stool I have in my bathroom. If I needed to straighten or curl my hair, maybe put on make up, I did not need to stand up. "Okay, I think you should have your bangs pulled back that your eyes are poping out tonight! With the dress you're wearing I swear Andrew's eyes will be all over you." Leah giggled out
"Yeah that would be-- Hold up!! Andrew?! You're talking about the Devil now? He thinks I'm ugly as a toad. Heck! A toad to him is prettier than me!!"
She pressed the striaghtner close to my scalp and I winced in pain. "Oh shush you, you need to admit that your hot and guys dig your body. Remember the guys the other day? I swear they were eye you right there and then!" She cheered
"You too!! They just want us for sex that's all," I mention
She pushed the straightner forcefully down to my scalp and I bit my lip from the burn she gave me AGAIN!! If she keeps it up, she's not going to live by the time she get's to my bangs. " Not all of them! You need to learn the fact that some guys don't want you for sex, they want you for you. Now stop thinking like that before I burn your whole head." She roared
She was burning me on PURPOSE!?!?! I'm so gonna burn her scalp when I have to curl her hair and just you wait. She might not even have hair when I'm done.
After a few arguement about Pretty Little liars, she was finished. Then she took out a bobby pin and pinned up my bangs to the back of my head. "Done. Now you can do your simple make-up routine." Than she left

I grabbed my make up bag and did a smokey look similar to Leah's and fix my hair a little to make it look neat then I was done. Looking in the mirror, I had to say to myself that I personally look hot! I was wearing a black dress that made it up to my mid-thighs and it hugged all my curves perfectly. I was wearing black 5-inch heels that made me alittle tall but not so much. My make-up was done perfectly that it completed the look.
I heard the door open from down stairs and people greeting each other. Walking out of my room, I see Leah waiting near the door with her mouth wide open. "Close your mouth before a duck fly's in." I chuckled
She closed her mouth and glared at me. "Hahaha very funny and now let's go before your mom comes for us." She grabbed my arm and we started walking down the stairs. We turned the bend and see everybody greeting each other with hugs or talking about the most common thing in the world; School and work, boring!
"Here goes nothing," I muttered to myself and stepped into the battle field. Once I walk in the dinning room, everybody turned around and smiled at me, "My, is that little Alexandra or should I say grown Alexandra!!" Aunt Diana gushed
"Yeah, That's me." I said shyly
Aunt Diana came running after me or if she can with those heels on and brought me into a suffocating hug. I might not last long if she doesn't let go.
She release her arms around me and I gather a large gush of air. I can breath again! "So how are you handling the wedding idea hmm? It must of been a wonderful surpise to know that your marrying that fine boy." Aunt Diana cooed
If I had a drink in my hand and I was drinking it, I would of spat it out and choked on it. Since I don't, might as well choke on air. Aunt Diana lightly tap my back, "Oh darling you must be coming down with a cold, go get something to drink and we'll talk later." I never ran as fast as I ever did at that moment in heels.
Maybe I should ask Aunt Diana to come down during exams time for my fitness test. She really gives good encouragement for people to run away from her.
I reach where the drinks were and got a glass of water. Never once I chugged down a glass of water like that. "Seems like you're having fun,"
And here comes the Devil to spoil my mood. "What do you want?" I growled
He smirked and crossed his arms over his chest. He was wearing a white dress shirt and a black tie. He had on dark jeans with all black dress shoes. Never once I thought he was going to wear dress shoes in my life!! His mom must of force him to--
"Are you done checking me out or should I give you some more time?" The devil smirked
I sent him a dealthy glare, if I could wipe off that smirk I would right now. "No! I wasn't checking you out, I'm just surprise to see you wearing dress shoes. Your mom must of force you to put them on huh?"
He nervously started scratching the back of his neck and his cheeks turned a tinted pink. "Um.. Yeah, she thought it would make me look presentable. Also she made me where this stupid tie, I wanted to wear my red and white Nike's with my red tie but mom said no! She thought it was to back street boys."

I couldn't help but start laughing at how he mocked his mother. Funny how his mom will say something along the lines like that then his dad will just try to convince his mom that he is just showing his "Style". Just then I heard someone clear their throat from behind us, we both turn around and we see Leah having her arms cross with a smirk plastered on her face. "Will you guys stop flirting and let's mingle with your family? They're wondering if you guys ditch to go do a--"
"Don't you dare say that word or I'll be sure to curl your hair EXTRA nice tomorrow." I threatened
Her eyes widen and she scurred off. I look up and see that Andrew was pretty close to me, too close for my standards.
I felt his hand caress my cheek softly and if I didn't know better it was rather relaxing. He stared down at my lips and he licked his lips then glance down at lips then brought his eyes to meet mine. I also licked my lips and started to lean in. Our lips were so close to touching each other, when I heard a gasp come from the kitchen door.
I looked away from Andrew and see my mom with a big smile on her face. "Now, see? This wedding is going on for sure with or without any problems!! Oh I have to tell Andrea about this." Then she left
Letting out a great groan of fustration, Andrew chuckled from my mood. "Now don't be mad, You get to spend the rest of your life with me. Does that sound great? And guess we should start now with you in my arms.. Never thought that would happen."
He so ruined a wonderful moment. I pushed away from him and started stomping out of the kitchen. I felt a cold rush of wind towards me. Since when did the house feel cold? Shrugging it off I went back into the battle field to wait for dinner to be serve.
After talking with Uncle Rob about school, Leah pulled me aside and smiled, "what I said about your cousin, scratch that; he's hot! Never thought two years can make a difference."
I didn't know what she was talking about til my cousin; Cole came coming down the stairs and I know he's family but Leah was right; He was hot. Hotter than Andrew or Channing Tatum combine! Now to me, that's HOT!
Before his hair was long and curly, he has acne all over his face, he was pretty skinny and wore large glasses and had braces. Now Lucas looks very muscluar, his hair was cut short like Justin Bieber's hair, he was wearing a dress shirt that was crumbled up and some button were opened up. It seemed that he was--
"LEAH!?!?!" I shrieked
Now I notice that her lipstick was smudge, her hair was frizzing out and let's not talk about how high her dress was! "I want you to go upstairs WITHOUT Cole and fix yourself before we serve dinner, so you won't look like you had a quickie in the bathroom. Which you did," I pointed towards my room and she started walking up stairs, not before Cole slapped her ass
"COLE?!?!" I shrieked again
He swiped around and crossed his arms in front of his chest, just like Andrew... Why in the world am I thinking about the stupid Devil? I should be dealing with my little cousin right here. Focusing back to Cole, I crossed my arms just similar to him, "You have some explaining to do,"
Cole smirked, "Well, not like that. Your boobs are distracting me from talking to your face."
Feeling my cheeks burn up, I drop my hands and put them to my hips, "Listen up you little pervert!! You shouldn't be listening to Andrew the player 101 cause you'll be like him. Marrying someone like me and I don't think you want to spend your life living with a girl who is a big fat bitch! So get your sh*t together. Two: If your using Leah like a rag doll you better step down now!She's not like that and for sure she gets hurt from somebody in my family, I have every right to kick your A*s. Understood?"
His eyes widen and he nodded his head furiously. "Yes Alex and I promise I won't use Leah like that, she seems like a really cool girl."
I patted his back and smiled, "Now go get some food kid and I'll go check up on Lee." His cheek started to go a different shade of red and I chuckled. He may try to act like a player but is one softy in the inside.
Walking up the stairs, I open my room and see that Leah was finishing her make-up. "How are you doing?"
She looked out from my room and gave me a small smile, "I'm okay, sorry about that a while ago. We were talking and--"
I rose my hand up to stop her from talking, "I don't want to hear anymore!! I don't want to know what you did with my little cousin."
She gave me a lopsided smile, "Cole is only three months younger than you, calm down . You always tell people that he is your little cousin."
I scoffed, "I only say that because he acts like a five years old all the time. Have you seen Chloe? I haven't seen her at all since they came."
Leah rolled her eyes, "Please, where do you think she is? Somewhere in the house with Andrew, she must of been hooking up with him since she came."
Since Leah said that, that remind me of the almost kiss me and Andrew shared. I can't believe I almost I was gonna kiss Andrew, yuck! I could kiss a goose all I care about. Lucky I didn't feel anything at all.
"DINNER!!!" My mom yelled
"fina-f*cking-lly!! I been dying to eat that turkey since 3." And I rushed out of the room, hearing Leah giggled right behind me. We walk in the dinning room and see everybody trying to find a seat. I sat down and guess who has to choose a sit right beside me?
Yep, you guess it; Andrew Carter, yeepy!! (Note the sarcasm)
He sat down and sighed, "That was a lot of work," He muttered
"Let me guess, you hooked up with my cousin, again?" I whispered to him, so uncle Rob won't hear. He shook his head, "Not this time. I didn't want to hook up with her, she's been all over me since I said no and let me tell you it's not working at all."
"Well maybe next time don't shove your tongue down her throat when you meet one of my family members for the first time, dumbass."
"It's not my fault, she was all over me!" He growled
I couldn't help but scoffed, "Please, like I don't believe that! Your Andrew Carter, the all time player. The one who can't keep his ding dong in his pants for a second, surprise you even last this long."
Andrew rolled his eyes, "Please, at least I get people in my pants beside you who has to drool over a celebrity thinking he'll show up at your door."
I felt my cheek heated up, "I do not!! Plus I was saving myself til marriage but I have to marry you, guess I'll have to be a forty years old virgin cause I don't want any STI's."
"Shut up! And I do not have any STI's or any type of dieases. I checked with the doctor and I always get the needle, unlike you. You don't even need the needle." He sneered
"That's because I'm allergic to the medicine they put in it. You know that and that's why I don't get it." And also the reason I don't have sex with anyone.
Everybody started digging into the food. "Sometimes I wonder if you'll ever settle down with anyone and then I see the actions you make. No wonder girls only want you for sex but not for you."
I guess I hit him right in the gut, "At least I get dates and not sit around watching tv with hot actors in it. When was the last time you had a boyfriend?"
I sucked in some air, he know's why I haven't had a boyfriend and it was all his fault. I used to have a boyfriend and his name was Eric, we were in grade nine and I knew he was the one and he knew too. He was the only guy I brought home or even stayed the night besides Andrew. One day I caught Eric making-out with this girl in the auditorium. Little did you know Andrew set him up with one of Andrew's play toys.
I didn't forgive Eric for doing that because he agree to play spin the bottle. Eric tried to appoliziges but I didn't budge. Then one day I heard he moved and he said that he loved me and wanted to marry me one day, I even remember how the note went:
Dear, Alex
I'm sorry for all the things I done and I shouldn't of played spin the bottle with Andrew and his friends. They were gonna to do something bad to you, maybe something terrible! I just wanted to tell you that I love you and I wish I could fix things with you. Inside the envelope is a ring, a promise ring. I wanted to give it to you the same day I saw you but you were to busy with Leah and her boy problems haha.... I always loved you since the first day I saw you in grade 8, I was to scared to even go up to you and say hi. Then we got to know each other and I knew you were the one and I let you go. I promise I'll be back for you and this time I'll never let you go.
Love lot's, Eric
I cried for days once I got the letter from his older sister and I never stopped. I tried waiting for him and I decline many guys during the months but I never loved someone as Eric and I never will. I gavel up on him since last summer cause I knew he wouldn't come back. Guys stop asking me out knowing that I'll say no or say along the lines "I'm busy that night" Which I was not! Leah tried to hook me up with guys but it didn't work.
I stayed quiet till dinner was done and everybody started going home, except for Leah and Andrew's family. Everybody started talking about the wedding and I couldn't take it anymore, "I'm going to go to bed now and I'll see you guys tomorrow," Before they could speak, I left.
Opening up my door, I changed into pajamma's and laid down in my bed and cried. Crying for missing the old Andrew, crying for missing Eric, and crying for marying the cold-hearted Andrew. I wish my life could ease up a bit but how?
Cece ;)
