Chapter 13
"Mr. and Mrs. Cliff,what are you doing here?"Lily asked.
Justin's parents!
"Lily, it's been a while since we saw you so we decided to just say hello before we leave."Mrs. Cliff said.
"Actually we're here because of some rumours."Mr Cliff cut in.
Oh oh!
"W-what rumours?"Lily stammered.
"Is it okay if we come in?"
"Actually that's not a good idea right now."Lily muttered."You see my room is in a mess."
Oh crap,I really didn't want to have to face Justin's parents,they hated my family.
"Oh."Mrs. Cliff muttered."Well my dear we heard that Justin has been acting differently since the Jones' daughter started attending the school.Is she giving any trouble at all?"
"She hasn't been giving any trouble at all.In fact its the good fairies that's been bothering her.So what you're hearing are just rumours."Lily confirmed.
"Are you sure?"Mr. Cliff asked."Because if she is we can get her out of this school."
"I'm positive."Lily said sounding annoyed.
"Well in that case bye dear.Take care."
Lily all but slammed the door before coming to sit by my side.
"You heard all that,didn't you?"she asked.
I nodded."Every single word."
" I'm very sorry about that."she apologised.
"Its okay,I'm sure my parents wouldn't have acted any different."
She sighed."I just don't get why there is this huge enimity between them."
"Who knows,maybe they would change like how Adam changed to be a good prince."I said hopefully.
She nodded."Maybe."
.................................................
TWO WEEKS LATER
I couldn't believe it,two weeks had passed and Justin didn't speak a word to me,after his parents visit he kept avoiding me,it was as if he couldn't stay in the same room with me for even a second.
"You ready?"Lily asked barging into the room with her long blue dress.
"Yeah."I answered taking a quick look at myself in the mirror.I wore a short black dress that outlined my figure perfectly.My hair was in a neat bun with curls to the sides.I actually liked how I looked.
"You look beautiful."Lily commented as we made our way down the stairs.
I smiled."Thank you and so do you."
"I'm really excited to attend this wedding!"She exclaimed as we entered the carriage.
I chuckled."I am also.Do you by chance know if any of the good fairies from our school would be there?"I asked, hoping Justin would be there.
She shook her head."I'm really not sure.I think Justin's parents would be there but I doubt he will since he barely attends functions like those and no one really talks to me again so I'm unsure of who's going."
I nodded."My parents said they will be there,I'm unsure if my brother will be there however."
My brother Edward was not a big fan of weddings,after his last relationship he despised anything to do with love.Which was very unfortunate considering how wonderful love could be with the right person,at least that's what I've heard before.
"You never really told me about your brother before."Lily said curiously.
"Well he is twenty one,the prince as you already know,all the fairies go crazy over him even the good fairies.However he despises love because of his last girlfriend."
"Oh.What did she do?"she inquired.
"I'm not sure,Edward never really told me."I confessed.
She sighed."Love can be a pain when its with the wrong person."
I nodded."Thankfully neither of us have to deal with it anytime soon."
She chuckled."True."
..................................................
"We are finally here!"I exclaimed happily,getting down from the carriage.
"Wow,they decorated the kingdom quite lovely."Lily commented .
She was definitely right about that.
There were roses and flowers in almost the entire kingdom.
Even the chairs were decorated,looking like it was made from gold.
"Gabriella!"
I turned around swiftly with a huge grin on my face.
"Adam!"I greeted him brightly.
"Wow,you look real...."
"Handsome." Lily cut in ,looking like she was in a daze.
He chuckled."Thank you girls,umm I don't quite know your name."he said turning to Lily.
She blushed."I'm Lily."
"Well its nice to meet you."he said."Oh gabby Krysta is getting dressed in her room,I'm sure she would love to see you before the ceremony starts."
I smiled brightly."I'd love to see her."
He laughed."Well you know where her room is,so go meet her."
"Follow me."I told Lily as I made my way through the castle.
"How often have you been here?"she asked.
"Quite often."I confessed."Its probably the only place my parents allowed me to go."I explained.
I knocked on the door in front of me.
Someone opened the door slightly."Adam if that's you trying to get a look at Krysta I swear I'm going to—gabby?"
"Lorna!"I exclaimed as we both hugged each other.
"Come in."she said opening the door and closing it behind us.
My breath caught in my throat as I stared at Krysta in awe,she looked so beautiful, almost as if she were an Angel.
"Gabby,look how beautiful you've grown."she said giving me a tight hug.
"You're the one looking beautiful!" I corrected her.
She smiled."Thank you
"
"I'll leave you to get ready now,the bride can't be late for her own wedding."I teased.
"Oh you didn't introduce us to your friend."she pointed out.
"Oh this is Lily,my best friend from the academy."I said introducing her.
She smiled brightly."I've heard so much about you guys,I'm very happy to meet you."
Both Krysta and Lorna smiled."We're glad we got to meet you also,besides any friend of Gabriella is a friend of ours."Krysta cheered.
"We will be waiting outside ."I said as Lily and I made our way out the door.
"Um Lily I need to use the washroom,I'll meet you outside okay."
She nodded as we parted ways.
Now where was the washroom again?
After walking for a few good minutes I was pretty sure that I was lost,now was probably a good time to ask for directions.The only problem was there wasn't anyone around to ask!
I thought I had known this castle pretty well but I was obviously wrong,I've never seen this part of the castle before.
It was actually very creepy.
I jumped as a scream echoed through the hall.
What the hell was that?
Something was coming my way and it was coming fast.
I spun around on my heels as fear engulfed me.
I ran the opposite direction and bounced right into someone.
I gasped wrapping my hands around the person in fear.
Why did I feel safe with him here?Who was he?
"Are you okay?"the stranger asked.
Wait a minute,I knew that voice,Justin???
I raised my head to stare up at him,it definitely was Justin.
His eyes widened as he stared back at me in shock.
I waited for him to push me away,something that he always did but I was left surprised when he didnt.
Instead he held onto me tighter before opening a room door next to us.
Before I could say anything he turned on a small lantern in the room.
The room was almost cozy and definitely private.Justin shut the door behind us and I felt a river of warmth flow through me as I realised we were alone ,away from everyone and everything.
He grabbed me and pushed me hard against the wall,I gasped and he used that opportunity to kiss my open lips.
I was frozen,completely shocked and spellbound by what was happening.
It was not long before I started responding.My arms slipped around his neck and his body was pressed against mines tightly.
Mine,I thought,mine!
We kissed frantically ,as if we were starved of each other.
His lips moved from mines and I protested until he placed them against my neck.
I moaned in response and regretted it immediately.
Justin pushed away from me as if the sound had broken whatever spell there was between us.
He muttered a silent curse squeezing his eyes shut.
"What the hell are you doing here!"he demanded angrily.
"I-I got lost looking for the washroom."I stuttered still affected from what just happened.
"Justin?"someone called outside the room.
His eyes widened before he pushed me back against the wall,this time his hands covering my mouth.
Who was that?
