Authors note ...Okay iv desired to give this an update as I think I kinda messed up a bit and I own nothing really here maybe a few background characters are mine and the idea ? ﾟﾘﾊ?
In a nursing home in the town of South Park a little elderly woman with white wavy hair tied in a bun was celebrating her 110th birthday a great age
The woman was now in a wheelchair rather frail and shrunk with age and her skin covered in Wrinkles but in her day she'd been a beauty and she sat with her grandchildren and son and his wife and several staff members as they brought out a lovely cake
" Happy birthday nana Bebe the kids said gently hugging the frail old woman and her son and daughter in law wished her a happy birthday too and her son Clyde handed her a large gift
" Their you go mom a gift for you from all of us really we hope you like it " Clyde said as Bebe unwrapped the gift to reveal a model of the ship Titanic
" Oh good heavens Titanic my ship of dreams as it was called. Well it has been a long time since I seen that name oh my 'Bebe said her voice shaking a little as if she was about to cry as she looked at the boxed model
'I know you have links to the ship and I seen the ship in a store and thought about you hope you don't mind ' Clyde said
'Oh no no not at all it's a beautiful gift and brings back so many memories as if it was only yesterday oh my goodness ' Said Bebe as a silent tear rolled down her cheek
' Nana is it really true you were on Titanic and that's how we got our names after you and a boy you met all those years ago ' Sais a small blond boy smiling
' Yes indeed it is true Kenny oh it was a very very long time ago I was just a young girl of 18 and forced to marry a man I didn't love not your grandpa I met him in America but this was when we were in England and your namesake he was a handsome cheeky Irish boy very poor but rich in charm and a heart of gold ' Bebe said smiling a bit
' Oh Nana please tell us the story again I love hearing it it's facinating and part of history ' Said a young girl with firizzy blond hair who also was called Bebe
' Oh Bebe stop it don't annoy Nana she might not want to tell you the story and it upsets her as she lost her loved ones that night ' Said the child's mom
'No no it's okay Amanda I don't mind and they should know about their history ' Bebe said looking at her daughter in law
'Okay now back in 1912 in March.i had turned 18 and a grand ball like a party was to be held for me and yes I was excited and happy as I had a beautiful new gown to wear and I'd get to see all my family and friends who were coming to celebrate with me ' Said Bebe thinking back as she settled into her pillow that was at her back and even some of the nursing staff came to listen as they found old Bebe fascinating too
It was the morning of Bebe's 18th birthday party and she lived in a very large grand house in England in the country
Bebe's family were very wealthy and Bebe was their only child so they were throwing her a grand lavish party and money wasn't spared Infact Bebe had grown up quite spoiled but she wasn't a snob she was a very down to earth girl and said their was no need for a party and also unknown to her their would be a surprise for her later
' Oh Truffles this is rather all exciting I didn't expect this I wanted a quiet affair not a huge grand ball ' Bebe said lifting up her little elderly spaniel dog that she had gotten one year as a child for Christmas and now her and Truffles were inseparable and most of the time Bebe carried her and let her sleep in her bed
' So Bebe do you know who's coming to your party tonight then has your parents said anything yet..? Asked Wendy Bebe's best friend and a distant cousin
' No not really yet I guess close friends and family also Stan and Michelle and their parents and the Jewish boy and his family. and sadly a distant family member we would rather disown dare I say Cartman Bebe said with a sigh looking at her friend who made a face as no one really liked Cartman apart from Bebe's parents
Like Bebe Cartman was wealthy he lived in a large house with his mom who spoiled him rotten and never told him off and also his late father had been a mlandowner In Ireland had been. very cruel even setting fire to people's homes and he didn't care if their was people in them or not and Cartman was developing his fathers evil ways even down to his love of food and drink and perhaps an early grave as Cartmans father was overweight and drank heavily and that was what killed him in the end
' Oh no surly not Cartman of all people he has no manners and is so rude maybe he is rich but that is all he is and besides if they invite him he will eat all the food and leave none for us why anyone in their right mind would want to invite him well that is beyond me ' Said Wendy with a gasp of horror
" Yes I know I dispise the boy no one I know likes him apart from my parents and I suppose well he is distant family I am not sure how we are related but sadly we are in a way " Bebe said with a sigh as she stroked Truffles silky head
The 2 young women walked in the beautiful gardens in the late March afternoon sunshine it was a chilly day and the early spring flowers were already in bloom and Bebe loved taking the air and walking in the grounds and when she was up to it Truffles would walk too but mostly Bebe carried her and this was Truffles 2nd outing after a bad winter and also Bebe had been sick in bed but she had fully recovered now
"So I believe you have new clothes for the ball tonight then I so can't wait to see them your gowns are always beautiful 'Said Bebe smiling changing the subject off Cartman
' Oh yes I do have a beautiful new gown mamma had made for me it's satin lilac also I shall wear my pearl and diamond earrings and matching necklace and bracelet that will finish it off nice and I still have grandma's white lace Fan I shall have that with me tonight and I shall have my hair up ' Wemdy said
' Oh my that sounds beautiful I do not know what to wear I got a few new gowns recently so I will wear one of them " Bebe said
Suddenly before the girls could say any more a maid appeared slightly out of breath and looking for Bebe
' Miss Bebe Miss Bebe I am afraid to interrupt you ladies but your father is wanting you in the drawing room now ' The woman said
' Oh did he say why what he wants ..? Asked Bebe looking at the young maid
' I'm afraid not miss just iv to fetch you that's all "The woman said in a thick Irish accent
' Very well I shall see what he wants come Wendy ' Bebe said turning to her friend before following the maid indoors wondering what he wanted
Mr Stevens Bebe's father stood at the large bay window looking out at the grounds he was a tall man with dark hair and blue eyes and was smoking his pipe
Bebe's mother sat on a nearby expensive antique sofa she was a quiet woman very good looking and had fair hair like her daughter and she secretly supported the growing suffragette movement but kept it a secret as her husband did not approve of those women and he believed a woman should be at home pleasing her husband and making babies
The maid knocked on the door announcing that Bebe was here and the man turned round looking serious
' You wanted to see me father is everything alright ...? Asked Bebe worried in case she was in trouble
'Aww my dear daughter everything is fine so do not worry now the reason I called you here is we must talk " The man said
' Now as today is your 18th birthday your no longer a child and you are now at the next stage of your life and it is at this stage when a young woman's thoughts turn to marriage and leaving home to start her own family your mother and I married at 19 and you were born a year later and also when you turn 21 you have a good sum of money coming to you so you will be more wealthy "The man said shocking Bebe a little
' Marrage good heavens above oh papa I have no plans to marry yet maybe in a couple of years I will marry but I just haven't met the right person yet and besides surly your both not planning on picking my husband this isn't 1912 hardly anyone dose that now ' Bebe said shocked not sure what she was hearing
' Now you listen here young lady stop filling your silly head with all this modern stuff it's utter nonsance and besides we do have a young man for you in mind he is very rich and owned a lot of property in Ireland and since the sudden death of his poor father last year he has become a lot richer and now owns a few farms and a lot of live stock too and once he gets rid of those filthy good for nothingbtenets off his land he is planning on having a grand house built ' Mr Stevens said shocking Bebe
' Your father is right dear when married you will want for nothing you will have a devoted loving husband lots of land and live stock once those filthy inbred tenants are gone ' Mrs Stevens said
' I pray he is successful those tenants are so stubborn they breed like rabbits their homes are filthy they don't wash and they can't be trusted and are full of dare I say lice and disease " Mr Stevens said shocking Bebe
' They are indeed but Eric will protect Bebe from them he's a good man ' Mrs Stevens begun but Bebe cut her off
' Excuse me did you say Eric as in Eric Cartman oh mama surly not their must be some mistake I can't marry him ever I don't even like him 'Bebe begun but got cut off
"Why ever not he's perfect for you he is very wealthy and a land owner and as we said he owns houses and farms in Ireland and he has a very large house here bigger than ours well alright it's his mothers house but one day it will be his so he can keep you in the lifestyle you are used to maybe even grander and you and your future children will want for nothing he's a perfect young man ' Said mrs Stevens shocking Bebe
' No momma I can't marry him I don't even like him let alone love him and I can't bare to be in the same room as him for 5 minutes with him let alone spend the rest of my life with him good lord mama 'Bebe said in horror before taking a deep breath
' Look mama if I marry it's for love I have to love that person first and I do not care if they are rich or poor money dose not matter to me I know you both mean well and that but I am sorry I don't love Eric Infact I don't even like him he is the most horrible person on this planet so no I will not marry him I would rather run away shave my head and become a missionary worker in Africa than marry him Infact I hate him 'Yelled Bebe before running off in a temper tantrum
'Now you get back here girl and stop acting like a small child your 18 and an adult and also when you are under my roof you will do as I say and your not too old to be punished ' Yelled mr Stevens in a mood now
' Oh Tom just let her go she will calm down and come to her senses and yes I do agree Eric dose have a few problems and he can be a little rude at times I do admit that but he is a very good man and Bebe will soon see that and grow to love him " Said Mrs Stevens gently touching Tom's arm making him sigh a bit
' I So hope so I want Bebe to be married and settled and I'm the life she's used to not to marry below her class that is what I So fear ' Tom said sighing
well that's that chappy done more to come
