「ARRANGED MARRIAGE 」

don't fall in-love

annie met with her grandfather in her dad's office he motioned for her to sit down across from him which she did, she saw that her father and mother we're sitting on side of him with her step dad, also her uncle, neil, sitting beside her father. she sat down knowing what was about to come, but in the back of her mind kind of hoping zaiden was just lying to get a reaction out of her. then her grandfather spoke roughly, annie wasn't paying attention if anything she was just overthinking about what he was going to reveal to her. she was so out of it that she made him repeat the question

tony: annie my dear how are you?

annie didn't hear what he said, she was too busy thinking about what was going to fall out of his mouth

annie: what?

tony: how are you my dear?

annie: oh i'm okay

tony: are you sure? you look like you've seen a ghost

annie: i know what you've brought me in here for

tony: and what's that

he said with an eyebrow raised, trying to possibly think what she could have came up with. since he thought she didn't know

annie: your forcing me to marry johnny

katie: you've already told her nick?

nick: no, i haven't, i didn't even say good-morning to her yet today

tony: how did you know what this is about

annie: it doesn't matter, i'm not marrying him

tony turned to almost like stone, his face was full on anger like he was going to light someone on flames. annie knew she had set him off the rails and was just waiting for the explosion in her face but she knew she was right. you can't force her to marry johnny. can you?

nick: dad i think you just need to give annie time to warm up to the fact-

annie cuts him off

annie: no! i don't need to warm up to anything! your forcing me to marry someone i don't want to be with! he will treat me like absolute garbage, i don't care if you want to resolve your stuoid fucking fued! do it on your own, don't force me and johnny to do it for you!

annie got up and stormed off her brother catching up behind her, being the nosey person he is follows her until she finally slows down. annie was in case's room freaking out, knowing that her grandfather was either going to ream her or he was going to make her punishment worse. nobody yelled at him, nobody talked back at him, what am i saying nobody even looked at him the wrong way

annie: they're forcing me to marry johnny!

case: orlando!

isaak: what the fuck

annie: they think it's such a great idea, yeah so he can cheat on me right before we even get married, so he can have 12 different baby mamas in our lovely lifetime spent together. so that our children will have 20 step siblings, so that my children and i will spend nights without him because he'll be out being a cold hearted killer

isaak: calm down! breathe!

case: isaak she's right! she should be freaking out

annie: see, someone understands

her grandfather busted through the door, annie getting ready to be yelled at she tries to fight back the urge to cry

tony: baby, i understand you don't want to marry johnny but think about it, you won't have to be so scared

why was he being so nice to me? he reams everyone that looks in his direction. he was kneeling in front of me when he put his hand on my knee

tony: it's better for all of us, it would finally give us all a reason to come together and get along

annie: but think of what he's going to do to me gramp

tony: just don't fall in-love. don't fall in-love.

and with that he walked out of the room where he left annie speechless. don't fall in-love . that doesn't matter if i'm spending the rest of my life with a piece of shit!
