Author's Note: Hey guy's! Sorry that this took so long to post but I wanted to make it as good as possible Thank you all for your wonderful support too! You reviews keep me going!
This chapter is dedicated to... Kagomehater4ever! You are an amazing writer and I love your stories!
Anyway's, lets get started!
I don't own Gnomeo and Juliet or any other famous thing I mention
And Brianna29 owns all characters made by her as well as the plot
I only own characters I add and any new plot's that show up
Gnomeo's P.O.V
I wish we didn't have to deal with this. Why should Juliet and I be constantly bothered just because of the fact were in love. Especially by our parents! You would think that the scar on Juliet's perfect face would be enough wouldn't you? I hoped it would. Yet here we are; the 3rd bonding party with still no sign of a truce.
"We shouldn't have come." Juliet announced her voice showing regret. I wish we hadn't. This is so awkward. I can't even talk to Juliet without everyone staring. I know I usually love the dances but today my heart just isn't in to it. It would just be even more awkward.
"We should talk to the prince." I say nodding slightly. We make our way over the where he sat by himself in a little chair in the corner of the garden.
"Hello Gnomeo, Juliet" The prince greeted us warmly. "What brings you here?"
"We wanted to talk to you." Juliet answered and I nodded.
"About what?" the prince asked.
"Well," I started. "Personally, I don't think it's a good idea for Juliet and me to be at the bonding parties. There is always so much attention on us that it is always awkward. Plus, everyone is always staring." I gestured to the gnomes looking our direction to prove my point. The prince nodded. He was taking this into thought.
"I see you're point Gnomeo," he started. "And because you two have already put the truce behind you, I excuse you from the bonding parties."
"Thank you your majesty." Juliet almost sighed in relief.
"We appreciate it." I added.
We walked away from the prince and towards the gate hand in hand. I opened the door for her and we headed back to our garden. Once we were inside we walked around in the neatly trimmed grass. I guess I must have looked a little upset and Juliet noticed.
"What's wrong?" she asked her emerald eyes showing concern.
"What? Oh nothing." I said. It was the truth but I then realized I could make this a little funner for both of us. "It's just we missed the dances." I said sarcastically. I knew she would play along.
"Oh," She synthesized sarcastically. "Poor Gnomeo."
"Yeah." I said dropping my head jokingly.
Juliet laughed. "I guess we'll have to make do without music."
I huffed sarcastically. "Yeah I guess."
Juliet laughed and I put my hands on her hips as she put hers on my shoulders. It felt right. I could just barely make out the sound of music coming from the bonding party. We started to dance and we talked the whole time.
"I wish they would just make up." Juliet said sadly.
"Me too." I agreed. The whole feud is pointless.
"What do you think is holding them back?" Juliet asks.
"I'm not sure."
We are both quiet for a few seconds until Juliet continues. "I think I know why."
"Why?" I ask.
"Dad doesn't think we really like each other." She admits. I drop my gaze to the ground. I got it!
"Well just have to prove it to them!" I say excitedly.
"What do you mean?" Juliet asks cocking her head to the side.
"Look at me." I order. She listens and I drop on one knee. She gasps.
"Juliet," I start. "I love you and I always will. No one and no feud can change that. I love you Juliet. Will you marry me?"
Juliet is speechless. She just beams and nods. Then she answers.
"Yes Gnomeo Yes! Of course!" My heart leaps. I get up from the ground and hug her as hard as I could. She hugs me back just as tightly.
"I love you," Juliet announces.
"I know." I respond. Juliet rolls her eyes. "And I love you too"
I hug her again. Nothing could ruin this. That is, until I remember our parents next door.
I pull away from the hug.
"How should we tell them?" I ask.
"Umm…" Juliet hesitates. "Let's just do it now. Get it over with."
"As you wish." I exclaim holding my hand out to her. She takes it and we make our way back to the red garden. Once there, I open the door and we decide to announce it on the pedistal for everyone to hear.
Once on top, I look at Juliet. She looks pale.
"How do we do this?" Juliet asks nervously.
"How about you go on the stage and do a draw for duets? You could rig it so we sing together and afterwards we could tell them!"
"Sounds good to me!" Juliet announces.
I head off the pedistal and as soon as I am on the ground Juliet makes the announcement.
"Everybody head on back! We will be doing a draw for duets!"
When everybody is back at the pedistal, Juliet picks out of the bucket.
'The first singer will be…Me. Again! Really?' She say's in fake annoyance. "And…Gnomeo!"
I head up the stage just as planned. I whisper a song in her ear and she nods. The music starts and we begin.
(Gnomeo, Juliet, Both)
Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
Oh honey if I get restless
Baby you're not that kind
So don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off of me
Oh honey when you knock on my door
Ohh,I gave you my key
Whoohoo!
Nobody knows it!
But when I was down I was your clown
Right from the start, I gave you my heart
And oh,
I gave you my heart
So don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my
Don't go breaking my
Don't gobreaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart!
When the song was over we actually did get some applause! I was surprised!
"Thank you" I exclaimed beaming. Juliet did the same in her musical voice.
"We have an announcement." I announced as soon as the applause was over. I continued. "Juliet and I are engaged."
I look at the startled faces surrounding us. No one really knew what to say.
"You're what?" Lord Redbrick boomed angrily.
"Engaged, Dad." Juliet answered bravely.
I looked over at my mom who was staring at the ground. Then back at Lord Redbrick who was turning redder by the second.
"No!" He shouted. "I won't have it!" I looked at Juliet who was a little upset by his outburst. He continued. "I may have tolerated you two being together, but this is crossing the line! I will not stand for this."
"Please!" I begged. I need to be with Juliet whether we're married or not.
"Marriage is out of the question! I will not allow it! You may stay together, but it will not last!" He raged. "Anyway's, the only people who have certificates for you two to marry are in the Red and Blue Gardens! They would need our consent! Therefore, marriage will never be an option!"
Juliet burst into tears and ran back to the Old Lawrence Garden. I followed and tried my best to sooth her.
"Juliet!" I yelled. "Don't worry! It's gonna be okay."
"I just wish they would give up on the feud!" She sobbed. I sat down next to her and wrapped my arms around her shoulders. She hid her face in my chest and continued to cry. It kills me to see her so upset.
We just sat there for a while; both to upset to say anything. Our parents would never understand.
I'm not going to go into detail about the rest of the night. But, well… Let's just say I comforted her more than I thought I would.
Author's Note: I'm not really happy about how I ended this but it will get better! I have a GREAT idea for this story that me and Brianna29 have been talking about! I don't want to give anything away but stay tuned for the next chapter! It will be a HUGE moment in the story! I will update soon! I promise!
REVIEW and bye for now!
