Chapter 13

I'M ENGAGED!!!!

I've been engaged for 2 weeks now. Today is Sunday and troy and I are going to dinner at Mami's. I haven't been here for awhile…

"So what do you think everyone is going to say?" I said.

"Probably they'll all say it's about time" troy said.

"Well it's not my fault you took forever!"

"I wanted it to be special!"

"It was" I said grabbing his hand.

We pulled up to the house and I heard the Spanish music already going. I shook my head. We walked to the backyard, now that it's nicer outside we all eat outside on Sundays.

"GABI!!" lettie squealed. Well she's in a good mood.

"Hey lettie, what's up" I asked.

"Nothing…just…we found out the gender today! We were waiting for you to come so we could announce it" she said. Well today I'm not going to tell them. When lettie walked ahead of us I whispered to troy.

"Not tonight" I said.

"Why?"

"It's Lettie's good news night"

He got a look on his face knowing that's not how it should be but it is. Lettie has been wanting to find this out since she got pregnant; she's excited my news can wait.

We got to the porch and I hugged every one.

"Ok well…guys…we're having a boy!!!" lettie said. She wanted a girl but lets face it, Montez's mostly have boys!

"I'm so happy for you Lettie!" I said and hugged her, hiding the ring. Everyone hugged her than the conversations started.

"What names are you thinking of?" Eva asked.

"Well we were thinking Bryce, Jase, and hector" lettie said.

"Awww those are adorable!" Reni said.

"Yea I know" lettie said. I kind of stayed quiet that night. I guess, I kind of am mad that again Lettie gets the attention…but what am I supposed to do. I have to let her have her moment. Well actually to lettie it's a lifetime of limelight but still this was special.

The night was ok; I shrugged what happened and my feelings away. It's not fair or right to think like that of my sister. I was sitting on the lawn chair while the boys were playing basket ball. My sisters were inside talking with the wives…I was basically outside a lone.

"Mija" mami said.

"Yea?" I said.

"Are you ok baby?" she asked pushing hair out of my face.

"yes" I said and smiled. Mami didn't buy it.

She grabbed my hand…my left hand…crap!

"Gabriella?" mami asked looking at the ring.

"Tonight was Lettie's night…" I said.

"Oh mija!!!" she said.

"BOYS!! KIDS GET OUT HERE!! GABRIELLA'S ENGAGED!!!" mami yelled. No mami no!!! Everyone came and troy came up to me and put his arm around me.

"How'd he ask?"

"He used Maya and had her come in and had it on her collar"

"Awww!" Eva said. I looked at lettie who looked pissed her eyes met with mine and they were pure hate. I didn't want this to happen!!!

The next day while I was at the boutique Lettie walked in.

"GABIRLLEA!" she yelled.

"Lettie I'm sorry I didn't want to take your spotlight!"

"Bullshit! You came there flaunting your ring even after I told you I had news!"

"Lettie I didn't mean for that to happen!"

"Ugh! You couldn't let me have the spotlight! You had it when you came back and when you and troy got back together and when you decided to move back! It was my turn and you had to ruin it!"

"Lettie I'm so sorry! Mami noticed it I didn't mean for her or anyone of you guys to find out!"

"Why Gabriella why couldn't I have that one night!"

"I wanted you to! But mami made it a big deal!"

"GABIRLLEA YOUR FULL OF IT!" she yelled. I used that statement as get out of my store. I couldn't believe all this was happening. I didn't mean for all of that happen! Ugh!!

Why is all of this happening!! I don't get it! I went to the apartment and went on a rampage.

"Brielle?" troy came out of the room.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE HER! I DIDN'T EVEN WANT THAT TO HAPPEN!" I yelled.

"Uhhhh Brielle…what are you talking about"

"I DIDN'T WEANT IT TO COME OUT THAT YOU AND I WERE ENGAGED! IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE LETTIE'S NIGHT TO GET THE ATTENTION NOT ME!!"

Troy came over and hugged me.

"Troy she's never going to speak to me again" I said.

"Yes she will she's just being her drama queen self. Brielle don't worry it will all blow over.

**

It's been 2 weeks and I haven't talked to my sister. If she comes into the boutique when I'm there then she just ignores me. I've tried talking to her but she won't talk to me.

"Babe…are you ok?" troy came in and asked me.

"I miss Lettie" I said.

"I know…but she hasn't cooled off. She'll come around one day. You guys are sisters and she's bound to break the ice"

"Troy its not ice blocking us, it's a freakin glacier!"

He laughed and kissed my head.

"Have you thought about when you want the wedding?" he asked.

"Troy it's a decision we both should make!"

"Brielle, its all you. I want you to be happy, whatever makes you happy I will love it" he said. I sighed.

"Even if I said I want a Goth wedding with all black and blood?" I said.

He laughed. "If that happens then I might need to get you checked out" he said.

I laughed. "Don't worries, but I think we should at least pick the date together" I said.

"Well what about May…near your birthday"

"That doesn't give me enough time to plan it…what about July 16th…" I said.

"Why July 16th?"

"Because…well…it's the day we got back together…" I said.

He smiled. "July 16th…best day of my life" he said.

So it's set July 16th! This July I am going to be Gabriella Nicole Bolton! YAY ME!
