1-Wedding Scares
Courtney smiled as she stared at flawless reflection in the mirror. To her, and everyone else in the room, she looked beautiful. Once again the petite brunette twirled on the spot, the bright white dress flared out, spinning as fast as she was. As soon as Courtney stopped the material hugged onto her legs, before falling back into place.
"This is the one." The young girl beamed happily. She had been searching for the perfect wedding dress for weeks, but this was the one she wanted. To her it was perfect. Pure white, strapless and hugged onto her curves before slightly puffing out. Perfect.
"I wouldn't know, I can't see it." Duncan replied. He had his hands stuck to his eyes as he leaned against the door frame. He wanted to see how beautiful his fiancee looked, but he was willing to wait for their big day.
"You shouldn't be here, Duncan." Courtney snapped at him, still admiring her dress in the mirror. If Duncan looked, then Duncan looked, he was only spoiling the surprise for himself.
"This is my house!" The delinquent shot back.
"That doesn't give you the right to spy on us whilst trying on dresses." Courtney retorted. Rebecca and Phoebe just sat back and smiled. Courtney and Duncan always bickered and the two always found it amusing.
"Can you hurry it up?" Duncn asked. "My eyes are starting to water." Courtney shook her head, holding back the giggles. She clicked her fingers and the white dress transformed into her usual striped tank top and black skinny jeans.
"You can look now." Courtney told him, sitting herself down on Phoebe's bed. Duncan removed his hands and instantly smiled at the three girls.
"What are you doing here?" Phoebe asked. She hated having her brothers in her bedroom, it felt as if they were spying on her and her wish to keep the room private.
"Like I said, my house." Duncan replied, taking a seat in the arm chair at the end of the bed. Phoebe narrowed her eyes on her older brother, he was now officially touching her property and she was not happy about it.
"Being the man of the house has clearly gone to Duncan's head." The young vampire scowled.
Duncan was officially the man of the house as his father and Derick both moved out weeks ago. The two now lived back on Earth, making Duncan man of the house. But then Kevin moved in. However, Duncan still believed he was man of the house since the house was in his parents name and not Kevin's.
"Yes it has." Duncan confirmed.
Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than fuckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're
nothing
You're fuckin' perfect to me!
"Hello?" Rebecca answered her phone, a wide smile on her face. Everyone went silent for her to talk on the phone, mainly because they wanted to listen in on the conversation. "Yeah..." She mumbled, the smile disappearing with every passing second. "Yeah, I totally understand...Don't worry, it'll be okay." But it wasn't looking okay. "I'll talk to you soon. Bye, dad." She removed the phone from her ear and snapped it shut in her palm.
"He's not coming, is he?" Rebecca nodded her head, sinking down onto the bed between Courtney and Phoebe. Tears were in the her eyes as she thought about what had just been said.
"Don't cry, Becks." Duncan told her, moving so he was sat at her feet. He hated seeing his sisters crying, which, with Phoebe, did happen often.
"I can't help it!" She cried out, resting her head on Courtney's shoulder. "Having your dad at your wedding is one of those things that makes a girls wedding special..." Courtney wrapped her arm Rebecca, trying her best to comfort her. "Him giving her away...Their special father daughter dance...I'll never have that because he says he's too busy!" The tears were building up and pushing each other from Rebecca's eyes. "What father is too busy to come to his own daughters wedding?"
"Ours..." Phoebe mumbled, looking away from her sister. Duncan slapped Phoebe's arm, making her call out in pain. She wasn't helping with the situation with naything she did or said. Rebecca was pouring her heart out, but Phoebe was still trying to be funny. "Well it's true."
"You will still have the rest of your family there." Courtney assured Rebecca. Everyone who was there loved and cared for her enough to show up.
"Easy for you to say." Rebecca replied, wiping her eyes. "Your dad will be at your wedding..." Rebecca knew that Courtney had no idea how it felt to now have your dad at your wedding.
"So...Now we're down by three." Phoebe said, not really getting the whole idea was to cheer up Rebecca, not bring her down some more.
"No one in this family cares about me...No mom, no dad, no Derick..." More tears flooded Rebecca's face as she cried some more into Courtney's shoulder.
"I care about you." The three yelled at her.
"Yeah...Because that makes me feel so much better." Rebecca muttered, feeling even worse for herself.
Night time had fallen and the sun set over Scarlatina. Everyone was retreating home, ready to rest up for the next busy day of life.
"We haven't set a date yet." Courtney moaned. She was sat at the table in Duncan's house, head in her hands. She had been trying to arrange everything all day. Duncan had been no help, so she was just left Rebecca and Phoebe.
"I thought you didn't wanna set a date until Belle was born." Duncan replied, searching through the fridge.
"I know..." Courtney moaned, getting up from her seat. She walked over to the kitchen and jumped up on the counter beside the the fridge. She rested her head on the side of the white metal, worrying over everything. "But now I want a date to look forward to."
"December twenty-fifth." Duncan called, grabbing a plastic bottle from the back of the fridge.
"You wanna get married on Christmas?" Courtney questioned, thinking he was completely out of his mind.
"No." He replied. "You said give you a date to look forward to." Courtney reached over and took the bottle from Duncan. She wasn't going to drink it, she knew what it contained and was not prepared to even try it. "I mean, we haven't had a Christmas together yet."
"Christmas is ages away..." Courtney moaned, wrapping her arms around Duncan's neck. Duncan smiled, kissing his fiancee.
"Twenty-four days isn't that long." He told her.
"Really?" Courtney asked, moving her face away from Duncan's. "I thought we were in October..." She tried to think over the past few months of her life. Nothing.
"Where have you been for the past two months?" Duncan joked and Courtney laughed.
"I've been living in September."
