I glanced at Indigo who just glared back. The hall was silent, and I knew that she had told everyone that Billee and Legolas were gay and were together.
Dinner was unusually quiet that evening. But after it, I got up, and walked to the teachers table. I spoke quietly with Elrond. He nodded and I got up on the stage, that had been used for the Mock Rock.
"Guys, girls, elves, hobbits, humans and wizards. Why so silent? Is it because Indigo Velona has said some things about my friends that has upset you all?" I pointed to a girl I knew by sight, but not by name. "You, what have you heard about my friends?"
The girl stood up. "I've heard that Billee and Legolas are gay. I heard that from Indigo."
I shrugged. "What's wrong with being gay? It doesn't make a person different. It doesn't make them strange. They like someone else. But that person just happens to be the same sex as them. Who cares? I sure as treacle don't. Billee and Legolas are my friends, and just because Indigo is jealous of Billee choosing a guy over her, doesn't mean we all have to treat them differently. So Indigo, next time you try and sabotage something, try and do it a little more thoroughly." I hopped down off the stage. About five seconds later, someone started to clap. Then everyone else started to clap. I got a round of applause just for sticking up for two of my good friends.
After dinner, Frodo and I took a walk around the garden.
"That was really brave what you did at dinner, you know." He said. I grinned.
"Thanks. But I just can't stand to see my friends suffer over a stupid girls blackmail. Indigo is just a bitch…"
Frodo began to kiss my neck. I giggled. It tickled. He was such a cutie. He always managed to make me feel better even when my hopes had sunk so deep, they seemed like they'd never come back up again. I loved him with all my heart. I was glad I was marrying him.
It was now two weeks to graduation. Things were getting tense, what, with the wedding five weeks away. We had our final exams, Emma, Me, Jake, Baz, Billee, Legolas and everyone else we sat with passed with flying colors. The only one who didn't pass was Indigo. I think she had been brooding about me embarrassing her at dinner that night. Maybe thinking up ways to sabotage my wedding. Good thing Julia and Emma had helped me make it an invitation-only wedding. But I still had to worry about graduation. I was, believe it or not, terrified. It takes a lot to get me terrified, but this graduation, I had snakes in my belly.
