Okay I got 50 hits but only 2 reviews for the last chapter? Now that doesn't seem very fair does it? Please remember to review at the end.
So sorry for the long wait on this, I've been a tad busy lately, It seems as though I've been going out every night when I haven't. I've not had much chance to write. Now with that over I'm posting a new fic which is named Breaking Free. This is the Summary: When shy and intelligent Ariella Potter and Quidditch hotshot Lucas Malfoy get paired together for a school project, Ariella knows that she shouldn't feel anything but hatred towards him. So why does she feel attracted to him? And what will Ariella do when Lucas returns her affections? Will they ever break free from their cliques and parents' rivalry so they can be together?
Click on my pen name to read it! Also I am changing my pen name to glitterfairy or something like that. It will have the words glitter and fairy in it.
Reviews:
frenchpiment - Thanks for reading and reviewing. Yes she wants a baby with the psycho. In most domestic abuse cases the victim still loves the abuser and as far as the victim can see the abuser isn't doing anything wrong. Harmony is their cousin through Fletcher. Fletcher is Ron and Hermione's son and his wife is Harmony so she's a cousin through marriage.
Hogwartsbunny - Thanks for reading and reviewing. I don't think that it was a cliffhanger but loads of people have said that it is, at the time of writing that I wrote that because I wanted the readers to see how manipulative Ben actually is. I repeat it because people forget about it, I even forget myself sometimes and it saves a lot of time because I found that people were getting confused.
Lizzy - Thanks for reading and reviewing. I'm glad that you like this.
Anyways now onto our feature presentation. Here's Chapter Eight. All I ask of you is to enjoy and to please leave a review at the end.
Chapter Eight - We're Engaged!
The next day, Matt took Maddy out for dinner because he wanted to and well he had something special that he wanted to ask her. She had some special news for him too. As they were leaving the apartment, Maddy looked at Peyton.
"Are you sure you're okay with me going?" she asked.
"Of course I am! Go and have fun!" Peyton replied.
Maddy smiled at her and said good-bye as Matt dragged her out of the door. Once the door was shut, Matt looked at Maddy and smiled.
"So where are we going?" Maddy asked while she smoothed down her pink dress with a black lace overlay.
Matt looked at her and laughed then said, "That's for me to know and for you to wonder about."
Maddy scowled and started to walk down the stairs. When she was halfway down them, Matt caught up with her. He slipped his right hand into her left. She looked up at him and smiled. After about half an hour of walking Matt and Maddy arrived at the restaurant. Maddy looked at the sign and gasped.
"We're going to dinner here? At Tallulah's?" she asked.
"Yes," Matt replied.
"Are you sure? This is the most expensive place in Oxford."
Matt chuckled then said, "Only the best for you. Come on."
He led Maddy into the restaurant and stood near the maitre d's podium. The maitre d looked up at Matt and smiled. She beckoned him over and Matt turned to Maddy.
"Do you mind waiting here for a sec?" he asked.
"No. You go ahead," Maddy replied as she shook her head.
Matt grinned at her and walked to the podium. When he was stood in front of the podium he smiled at the maitre d. She returned the smile and picked up her pen.
"Welcome to Tallulah's. Do you have a reservation?" the maitre d asked.
"Yeah. Table for two under Smith," Matt replied.
The maitre d put a tick beside Matt's name in her reservation book and picked up two menus. She beckoned Matt to follow her as she stepped away from the podium. Matt put his hand on her arm and pulled something out of his pocket.
"Can you ask our waiter to put this on top of her dessert?" he asked.
"Of course Sir," the maitre d replied as she took a box from his hand.
Matt called Maddy over and they followed the maitre d to their table. The maitre d put the menus down on the table and Matt held Maddy's chair as she sat down. He then sat down himself.
"Your waiter will be with you shortly. Enjoy your meal," the maitre d said.
She then walked away and passed the box to a waiter. She quickly said something to him and pointed towards Maddy and Matt. The waiter nodded and walked towards their table.
"Can I get you some drinks?" the waiter asked whilst holding his small notepad in his hand.
Matt ordered a beer while Maddy ordered an orange juice. Dinner slowly wore on and after what seemed like an eternity it was time for dessert. Matt ordered cheesecake and Maddy ordered a slice of chocolate fudge cake. When the desserts arrived Matt started to eat his and waited for Maddy to notice the surprise. Sure enough after a few moments she did.
"Um, Matt what's this?" she asked whilst she held up a ring.
Matt smiled and stood up. He then bent his leg and went down on one knee. He looked at her shocked face and grinned.
"Madison-Lily Potter, I love you with every inch of my heart and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?" he asked.
Maddy nodded and pulled him off the floor. As he kissed her he slipped the ring onto the fourth finger of her left hand. Matt broke away from her and sat back down. Maddy sighed and looked at her new fiancé.
"Matt there's something I need to tell you."
Matt nodded and beckoned for her to continue.
"Matt, I'm pregnant," Maddy told him.
Matt grinned and grabbed hold of her hand.
"Really?" he asked.
"Yeah. I'm about six weeks along. The baby's due August 9th," Maddy replied.
Matt whooped and jumped out of his seat to hug Maddy. An hour later Matt and Maddy arrived back at the apartment to hear arguing coming from inside. They quickly unlocked the front door and walked in to find Ben and Peyton shouting at each other. Peyton was wearing a blue denim mini skirt with a lace layering effect on it, a black, floaty spaghetti strap top and a pair of black, satin stilettos that laced up around the leg. Maddy looked at them in utter amazement.
"YOU ARE NOT WEARING THAT OUT!" Ben shouted at Peyton.
"I am. You can't tell me what to wear. I'm my own person!"
"YES I CAN! YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND! YOU LOOK LIKE A HOOKER! ARE YOU ADVERTISING YOURSELF TO OTHER MEN?"
Peyton shook her head quickly then said, "Okay I won't go out."
She then sat down on the sofa and sighed as she turned the television on whilst Ben stormed off into the bedroom. Maddy looked Matt and frowned.
"You go after him and I'll speak to her," she said quietly.
Matt nodded and walked down the hallway while Maddy sat down on the sofa. She hugged Peyton and smiled at her.
"I think you look great. Don't worry about Ben. Peyton why won't you leave him?" she asked.
"Because I love him. I'm too scared to as well. I don't know what would happen if I said I was leaving him and besides we're trying for a baby."
Maddy looked at her sister and shook her head.
"Peyt, you can't bring a child up in an environment where daddy bullies mummy. What would happen if your child saw daddy hit mummy? How would you explain that? Please leave him. I'm begging you! I don't want you to end up dead because he kept beating you up."
Peyton shook her head and went to get up but was interrupted by Matt who had Ben in tow.
"Peyt, Ben, Maddy and I have something to tell you," he said.
Matt stood next to Maddy and hugged her. She quickly whispered something in his ear then looked at Peyton.
"We're getting married!" Maddy exclaimed.
Peyton looked down at the floor and said, "That's um great! Wow! I'm so happy for you!"
To be honest, Peyton couldn't help but feel jealous at the fact that her sister was getting the things she wanted. Peyton desperately wanted the caring, sharing boyfriend that Maddy had and now Maddy was going to get the big expensive wedding that she wanted as well.
Peyton sighed and got up from the sofa. She quickly walked down the hallway and into the bathroom. Meanwhile Maddy was on the phone to Ginny who was happy for her. Ginny was excited at the fact that her eldest daughter was getting married.
Please review.
