In 2011, Victoria 'Tori' Vega is a normal seventeen year old girl until one day she is not. It's at dinnertime when her father tells her she is to be married too a boy her age from Seattle, Washington. Tori's mother fights to hold back tears and their hired help look just like they always do. . .emotionless. Her father opens the door and then, walks in. . .
Freddie Benson.
Tori recognizes him instantly; she has seen many of his exploits on iCarly and remembers meeting him at Kenan's party where Steven her boyfriend at the time was revealed to them and the world to be a cheater since he was dating Carly as well. Freddie is only eighteen but he has many bags under his eyes and looks like he is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders.
Tori wanted to protest. She wanted to tell her father that it's the 21st century and America is far past arranged marriages, but she's simply too shocked to say anything. That, and Freddie really wasn't that bad looking.
"Tori is only seventeen! Why are you making her marry so early?" Tori's mother asks. She squeezes her lips together to avoid saying more. They all know if she says too much, even with Freddie there, her father will reach across the table and slap her across the face.
"You and Tori know I'm not safe because of my job as a police officer and my connections with the drug cartels. Freddie will take care of her and you and Trina will be fine since all of our money will be in your control once I die." he replies softly but coldly.
It's only two months before they're married.
The wedding is elaborate and very expensive; Tori's dress is custom made, there are ten bridesmaids (most of whom Tori does not even know except for Jade, Trina, and Cat) and pretty much anyone who's anyone shows.
When she gets to the altar, she's made up her mind too not say those two little words that will change her life but all it takes is once glance at her father's tired face and Tori doesn't even realize that her lips are moving:
"I do."
