Chapter 69
“ I -… umm . I couldn’t find … ” Blake blinked a few times and shook his head . “ I couldn’t find Rosy but she’s here , so yeah he finally managed . He cleared his throat a little at the end and tried looking around , trying to keep his eyes off me .
“ Yes , here I amk You look very handsome Blake ” I said , with the big smile still plastered on my face . I was so enjoying this .
Blake had a black 3 piece suit on with a black bow tie . He had his hair gelled back a little different than normal but he looked very edible .
He adjusted his tie a little and looked away . He didn’t have a comeback ? That was weird .
“ Right , this isn’t awkward at all . Maybe we should go inside mum ” Emily laughed .
“ Sure darling . Rosy , will you be sitting with us ? ” Sue asked as she adjusted her dress . She quickly turned around to look at herself in the mirror behind her .
“ Well , Blake has an extra chair for his plus one at your table . If he is okay with it , I can sit with you . ” I tangled my hands together and twisted my ring
Sue smiled at me . Her smile reaching her eyes and it made me happy . The
were accepting me . All of me .
“ Okay well , we shall let you guys sort that out . Come soon , Blake . ” Nat
put his elbow , out for Sue . They linked arms and Nate walked towards Blake and said something to him in his ear . Blake nodded and rubbed his face . Nate patted him on the shoulder and they walked into the hall arm in arm . Emily was right behind them .
I looked up at Blake . He was staring in the direction his family had gone . What was with him ? He was acting so weird . He normally had so many compliments for me . Did he really have nothing to say today ? Fuxk , did I not look nice ? His reaction told me that he was taken back by my look but maybe I read him wrong . I had never dressed up like this around him and maybe he didn’t like it .
Once the Coopers disappeared , I cleared my throat trying to get Blake’s attention . When he turned to look at me , his eyes were pitch black . Those dark orbs had gotten darker and they looked terrifying . But how did that happen ? The lightning hadn’t changed . What the hell ? He must have seen my reaction and he quickly turned his head and rubbed his eyes .
“ I’m sorry my contacts are itchy , ” he said .
He didn’t wear contacts .
“ That’s okay . Will it be okay if I seat with you guys at your table ? Seth had put me on Taylor’s table but for obvious reasons , I can’t go there ” I was
shaking a little . Did I look that bad ?

“ Yeah , that’s fine . Dad said he was going to announce the engagement after his welcome speech . Pops had to fly out of the country for some work and couldn’t make it so dad will be taking over . ” He looked down at his hands . He was avoiding eye contact now .
“ Okay . How do you want to do this then ? ” I was trying to keep my voice as even as possible . My chest was really tight and I knew I would start crying at any moment . My plan to tease Blake backfired and I was feeling a little heartbroken . Everyone else seems to think I looked good , what was his problem ?
I quickly turned towards the mirror to check my makeup . I knew it would have smudged a little from how high my anxiety was now . There was a low growl behind me and I looked up at Blake’s reflection in the mirror . He was staring at me like a hungry man seeing food for the first time . I saw his eyes wander down my back and linger around my butt .
I cleared my throat and his eyes snapped back up to mine . He adjusted his jacket and put out his right arm for me to take . I took a deep breath and placed my hand on his extended arm . He still wasn’t looking at me . He adjusted his tie and blew some air out .
“ Ready ? ” He asked and didn’t even wait for my reply . He started walking and I followed .
As we got to the door , I put on a smile and kept my head down . My left hand was on display with the ring sparkling under all the lights . I heard a few gasps and some even went quiet . I mustered the courage and looked up to find lots of eyes on us . People were clearing the way for us as well . There were a lot of people we knew in the crowd . Some had shocked looks on their faces , others had smirks or smiles . People had been talking about us for a while and now it was all official .
Patrick and his wife were sitting at the table over from the Coopers . He was staring at us while trying to get Brady’s attention . Brady was the Assistant General Manager and a massive pain in the ass .

Chapter 69
We walked past the Callum’s table and I saw Taylor and Rocky smiling at us . Taylor gave me two thumbs up and clapped her hands a life . Howev rest of the group didn’t look so delighted , especially Vince . I didn’t even know why he bothered to come after what happened .
* I will break his face if he comes close to you even by accident . You are mine now , he needs to keep his hands and his eyes off Blake muttered water be breath .
That’s what he has to say ? Was he serious ?
He slowed down once we got to the table . We walked around to our seat and he pulled the chair out for me .
“ Thank you but I can manage ” I whispered .
He ignored me and pushed the chair in as I sat down before taking his seat next to me . He grabbed a glass of water and in one big gulp , he emptied the glass . I rolled my eyes . Here I was thinking he would be hot and bothered by how good I looked tonight but this asshole didn’t even care .
