After Everything, You Really Think I Am Marrying This Jerk?!

Everything was calm now. I was up in my room staring at the ceiling, listening to Eyes ON Fire By Blue Foundation

ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh

I spotted my boyfriend the same time he saw me. He smiled big and held his arms open. I dropped my bag and ran into his arms and kissed him while he put his arms and round me and lifted me up.

I’ll seek you out,
Flay you alive
One more word and you won’t survive
And I’m not scared of your stolen power
I see right through you any hour

Mother Dearest
Get home straight after school. We have a dinner to go to.

I regret the day I taught my mom to text. I clicked reply.

Gahh! Can't I just stay home?

She texted back.
No. This is important for you as well.

Since when am I important in their business?

I clicked reply.
Ugh. Fine. Cant Andrew come at least?

My phone vibrated
No.

I won’t soothe your pain
I won’t ease your strain
You’ll be waiting in vain
I got nothing for you to gain

"What's wrong babe?" Andrew asked me.
"My mom is making me go to dinner with them about some business shit." I said.
"Its okay. You will text me so your not so bored." He said.
"My mom doesn't let me use my phone during business stuff." I said frowning.
He sighed.

I’m taking it slow
Feeding my flame
Shuffling the cards of your game
And just in time
In the right place
Suddenly I will play my ace

He looked up and said Hi to my parents, but froze when he saw me.
Why did he look so.. familiar?
We sat down to eat, me feeling uncomfortable because he was still staring at me.

I won’t soothe your pain (ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh)
I won’t ease your strain
(ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh)
You’ll be waiting in vain
(ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh)
I got nothing for you to gain

"Okay." My father said, putting his fork down. "Kids. We have an announcement." My father said. I looked at him drinking my water.
"Samantha. You are arranged to be married to Ashton." He said.

Eyes on fire
Your spine is ablaze
Felling any foe with my gaze

"Jesus Christ woman!" The guy shouted getting up, all wet.
I got a good look at him. Ashton. Ashton Miller.
I looked at my parents.
"This is a joke right?" I asked.
My parents shook their heads.

And just in time
In the right place
Steadily emerging with grace

"Get in the restaurant right this minute young lady!" She yelled.
I turned around and saw from the corner of my eye that my father and the Miller's were watching.
"Hell no! So you can fucking ruin my life some more?! What about Ashton?! I love Ashton not that fucking asshole!" I yelled pointing at him.
"Do not talk to your mother that way!" My father said coming near us.
"As if your any better!" I yelled, "All of my life, I actually thought, as much as you ignored me, that I was something in your lives. But i get it now. I just a tool to combine your stupid fucking companies. Do you really fucking hate me that much?!" I yelled.
"We do not hate you. Now get back in the restaurant. Now!" My father yelled.
"Fuck no!" I said taking off my heels and ran.
I didn't care where at the moment. I just ran.

ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh,felling any foe with my gaze
ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, steadily emerging with grace

"I love you." I said.
"I love you." He said giving me a small kiss. I turned to get out.
I saw the lights on. Parents must be home. I sighed and walked inside. I planned on ignoring them, that is until I head a scream.

ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, felling any foe with my gaze
ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, Steadily emerging with grace

"Pack your bags Sam, your coming to live with me and Armen." She said.
"You can't do that." Mother said.
"YOU CAN"T FORCE HER TO MARRY THAT FAG!" Kristen yelled.
'YOU DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT!" My mother yelled.
"STOP!" I yelled.
"I'll be fine, Kur" I said
(Kur - Sister in Armenian)

The song had nothing to do with it, and yet. It brought out everything.
That night I cried myself to sleep.

I woke up in the morning and walked to the shower. I shampooed my hair with strawberry shampoo and conditioned it with raspberry. Smelled amazing.
I got out and wore some sweats and a tank top, really not in the mood to get all dressy.
I walked downstairs and went to the kitchen.

"Доброе утро меда" My mother said in Russian.
(Good Morning Honey)

I ignored her and went to the kitchen.

"Вы не выбраться из этого. Нет смысла игнорируют меня." She said.
(You aren't getting out of this. No point in ignoring me.)

"Вы когда-нибудь думали о том, что я хочу мать? Я не хочу выйти за него замуж. Пожалуйста, что я собираюсь сказать Андрей?" I said.
(Have you ever thought about what I want mother? I don't want to marry him. Please What am I going to tell Andrew?)

"Вы должны разрыв с ним. У вас нет выбора. Мы Mad это дело, когда вы родились. Мы не можем нарушать его."
(You have to breakup with him. You have no choice. We mad this deal when you were born. We can not break it.)

I didn't say anything back. I just continued what I was doing. I made some eggs and bacon.

I got my plate and went downstairs to the family room and watched Fresh Prince of Bel-Air hoping to get this shit of my mind.

My dad came home around 6pm and turned of the tv.
"What the hell? I was watching that." I complained.

"Не говорите со мной так. Millers скоро будут. Сразу приготовьтесь.." He said.
(Don't talk to me like that. The Millers are coming soon. Go get ready.)

I sighed, not wanting to talk. I went upstairs.
"DRESS NICE!" My mom yelled.
