Fixed Wedding

Avyanna Laurent a strong, beautiful woman. She is the Bad Ass Queen of the school where she is enrolled, not until she met Miguel Carter, a handsome mischief leader of his gang named Baddy Phoenix.

Their parents changed each other's lives because of a fixed marriage contract. They live together for 30 days to help each other develop feelings. Will they succeed?</p>

**

Today is the day that I will meet the guy with who's my parents partnered me. I don't get it. Why would they give me to someone that I do not know?

"Behave later, Avyanna." My mom told me while choosing a necklace for me.

I rolled my eyes, "I am already behaving."

She looked at me, "This one suits you." She gave me a necklace that is gold. It's a little bit heavy.

"Mom, can I just wear something that I am comfortable with? This dress suck as fuck." I let a deep breath.

"No, you can't. You need to be elegant looking, just like us. Your clothes look like we are going to someone's death." She looked at me from head to feet, "That looks better." She smiled.</p>

Oh, my gosh! Why is my family this rich? I didn't wish to be this wealthy. I just want to be someone who has a simple life.

"Put on your heels now. I'm going outside already. After you finished, go outside. Don't be late." She kissed my cheeks. Then she closed the door.

I sighed, "It's just for today, Avyanna. You can do this." I motivated myself.

After wearing my heels, I went outside. I saw Mom and Dad in the car, while my brother is leaning on his door car.

"Wow! It's my first time seeing you wearing a dress." My brother giggled.

I just rolled my eyes.

I looked at Dad when he called me, "You look gorgeous, my princess." He smiled, "Do you want a driver to drive for you?" He asked.

I shook my head, "No need. I can manage." I went into my Mustang car.

I'm just following my Dad's car, while my brother is following my car. We've safely arrived at the venue. I'm fixing my things while my family is already in the VIP room they rented.

After I finished, I open the door that will lead me to the VIP. I saw my parents talking to some people. My brother is also chit-chatting with a guy.

When the moment they saw me, a woman approached me, "You must be Avyanna?" She asked. I nodded. "Hi, I am Hailey. What a beautiful girl you are! You look like a bad bitch." She giggled. She looked at the guy, who was my brother's chit-chatting earlier, "You're so lucky!"

The guy just rolled his eyes. "Let's start." Our parents looked at us.

This guy is beside me. It's awkward, but I don't have the time to complain. "Avyanna, this is Miguel. He will be your future husband." Hailey introduced.

She looks pretty, though. I think she is excited right now. I don't know.

I looked at Miguel. He smiled, "Avy." I frowned.

Is he making fun of my name? I don't like them calling me Avy, it's gross.

"We're planning to give you two, a house. You'll be living there for one month." His mom said.

We both looked at each other, definitely disagreeing with that decision.

"In advance? Why?" I asked.

I'm just curious. Do we have to be live-in partners?

"Yes. Before you get married, you should live together. We know how hard to catch feelings for each other, so we are helping you two."

"You think this plan will help us to fall in love with each other?" Miguel said, then he whispered a curse.

What the fuck? I was offended by that. I thought it was okay with him because of his politeness tone. But yeah, okay. Though I also don't want to live together with him.

"Yes, son. It will work if you two will make it work."

"When will be the wedding?" I asked, out of curiosity.

I was shocked when Miguel pulled me closer to him, "Oh, you're excited to be my bride?" He teased.

I frowned. I shook my head, "In your dreams, asshole." I whispered.

We both looked at our parents and smiled. Their eyes shined. They thought that I and Miguel are fine, huh.

"We already bought a house. We've decided to make it a little small to be easier for you to hang out or something." My Dad sipped on his tea.

Why is this so sudden? I didn't expect living in the same house together with the guy I just met! Oh, my gosh! They're giving me a headache.

"When will we start living together?" Miguel asked.

They giggled, "Tomorrow." I was startled.

Why do they want to start it immediately?

"How about our things? How will I get there? Is it far from my school?" I asked.

Well, I needed to ask it for me to know something about this bullshit marriage. Miguel flicked my hand under the table. I looked at him, just biting his lower lip, avoiding to smile. I just rolled my eyes and looked at our parents again.

"The maids already packed it. The drivers will get you two there. Yes, it is far from your school. Don't worry, you don't have to go to school, we already talked to your profs."

I sighed but also nodded. I do not know why I agreed to this fixed marriage. Well, I just want my parents to be proud. After an hour, we had finished eating. Our parents were talking about business, while my brother and Hailey are outside. Both of us were focused on our phones. Since I'm on Facebook, I searched for his name.

'Miguel'

There are so many names that start with Miguel, so I didn't know here who is him. I looked at him.

When he noticed me, he raised his eyebrow.

"What's your name?" I asked.

He smirked, "Why? You're a stalker now, huh."

I rolled my eyes. "Just because. Now, give me your name."

"Miguel Carter."

I frowned, "There's so many."

"Let me see." He grabbed my phone, doing something on it.

"There."

I was shocked. He is damn famous. But what do I expect? He came from a wealthy family. They knew a lot of people or even celebrities around the circle of wealthy families.

**

Today, I'm going to our house. After an hour, the car stopped so that means, I am here. Well, I have my driver with me.

"This is small," I whispered while biting my lower lip.

So, I dialed the phone number of my mon and called her.

[What is it?]

"Uh, is this it? kind' a small."

[So you can always see each other. It's difficult when the house is big, you might not have time together.]

I just sighed.

[Goodluck, Sweety. We'll visit soon.]

"Yeah, take care."

I ended the call.

The maids have already put my suitcases inside, along with my driver. I don't know if Miguel is here already.

A maid is walking towards me, "What?" I asked.

"Mr. Carter is inside already." She mumbled.

I frowned, I don't care.

I crossed my arms, "Did he waited for me?" I asked.

"No comment." Suddenly someone spoke behind her, so I looked at him. It's Miguel Carter. My fiancé and my future husband.

I rolled my eyes, "Whatever."

I passed through them and went inside. It's okay. The living room has a couch for just only two persons, there is also a large television. This will serve us our movie room, I think? I went straight kitchen immediately, there is a sink and dinner table. Just two chairs, there is also a pantry. I walked up the stairs, I saw two rooms. Thank God! We will not sleep together.

I was about to open the first door, the maid suddenly approached me, "Sorry, Ma'am. But this is our room." She pointed out the second room, "That's your room, Ma'am." She smiled.

What the fucking damn, why do we sleep side by side? I sighed. I walked over there. I opened the door I saw Miguel's things. Just one bed, it's just so simple. No walk-in closet or anything. Oh, my gosh! How can I live like this?

"I'll be sleeping here tonight." I heard Miguel said. He laid down on the bed. He blinked while facing me.

I frowned, "What? Then where would I sleep?" I asked.

"Living room."

"No! No way. You're the man, you should adjust."

He opened his eyes, then he smiled annoyingly. He sat down on the bed, he focused his head on his palm hand. He tapped the space beside him, "Then lay beside me, choose."

I sighed. I don't want to sleep in the living room, I'm not used to it. I also don't want to sleep next to him. Oh, my gosh!

"Fine, I'll sleep there." I pointed the space beside him, "I'll sleep here."

**

I'm done fixing my stuff. While he is still sleeping. I'm already tired, even if that's all I do. So I took a shower first, then I sat next to Miguel. The sound of his sleep, I certainty looked at him. I just sighed. I also laid down next to him. I'm just scrolling through my phone when I feel like someone is hugging me behind me. Omg! It's Miguel.

"I'm asleep, stop moving." I sighed. I faced him. still sleeping, he's damn handsome as fuck!

"Night, Fucker." I kissed his forehead.

**

It's been 10 days since we lived together. Tomorrow our parents will visit, so we are just preparing. Every day, we argue. Urgh! it's really tiring, but I should not be beaten. I should always fight so that I could win.

"Hey, I want pasta," I ordered. She nodded her head.

She looked at Miguel.

"I prefer her rather pasta." Miguel suddenly said, while pointing me.

The maid giggled, then she went to the kitchen.

"What the fuck was that?" I asked.

"What the fuck was that?" He mocked me!

I rolled my eyes, "What time are mom and aunt coming here?" I asked.

"I don't know. Maybe early." He replied, without looking at me.

We are watching Netflix right now because we have no choice. We get a little close because we didn't go anywhere, we were always at home.

I saw the maid was dressed.

"Where are you going? Where's my pasta?" I asked.

"Ma'am, we ran out of ingredients. I'll just go to the grocery store." She said.

I looked at Miguel as if I wanted to go grocery with him. "Hey, Bastard. Let's just go grocery shopping." I smiled.

I also want to be closer to him. I don't want to get married when I'm not that close to the person.

"Duh, you buy alone. Can't you see? I'm watching, oh." He rolled his eyes.

Why does he have an attitude?

"I'm going to get dressed. You idiot, you'll go with me whatever you want or whatever you want!" I stood up.

I heard him sighed, "There is no difference between the choices!" He yelled.

"Right! So, you're coming because you have no choice."

"Why are we at the grocery store, are we maids?" Miguel complained.

"Oh, my gosh! Stop complaining, I just want some alone time with you." I teased.

"Really, huh?" He rolled his eyes.

He is the one pushing the big cart. There are only a few people here at the grocery store we went to, I guess this is an expensive store. It's a bit elegant and fancy to look at.

Before we left the house, the maid gave me a list of what to buy. I don't know what others look like, I'll just look for its name. Though, I also don't know what the brand name is, just the actual name. Ugh! This is hard.

"There." I showed Miguel the section of those in the cold put, and vegetables as well.

"You always eat leaves, so you're thin." He whispered.

"Wow! I'm ashamed of you, you don't seem to be thin!" I rolled my eyes.

"I'm fit. I have abs." He lowkey flexed his abs.

I looked at him as if disgusted, "In your dreams."

I get carbonara pasta ingredients. That's what I crave, also I don't eat spaghetti. It's not my mouth's type. I also got drinks, beers, soda, Gatorade, and Yakult. It's my favorite, though.

"What's your drink?" I asked him.

"Just beer. Get some lemon, too. Also, uh! Ah, that's it. Gatorade." I just nodded. I get 10 cans of beer. That's right for the two of us. Well, soda will do for our guests tomorrow.

"Let's have some snacks." He said then pushed the cart. He was first, I was just here. My head hurt a bit suddenly, I didn't expect it.

"Hey, hurry up-- Luh, what's wrong with you?" He went to me immediately.

He looked so concerned, fuck! Do I look pale? It's not too much pain, just a little. Maybe I just lack water.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Come on, where are we? Snacks, right?" I walked ahead of him.

"You should buy a lot of food, the type that will never run out at home." He said.

I frowned at him, "We need two carts. One cart is not enough, it's just for you." I rolled my eyes while giggling.

"If you're just okay now, I'll hit you." He seem tempted.

I laughed, "Can you hit me? As if!"

"My kiss will hit you." He raised his eyebrow.

I was shocked, so I suddenly lost my smile. Oh, gosh! Why is he like that? He's making my heart flutter.

**

We are here at the gate of our house. He insisted on opening the door for me because I was holding a bag, while he was carrying the box we bought.

"Ma'am, let can carry that." The maid said, she immediately approached me.

Meanwhile, the driver took the box from Miguel's hand.

"Thank you," I said formally.

"Our parents will visit tomorrow. Prepare some foods for them." Miguel commanded.

He went up to our room first.

"Yaya, my carbonara pasta ah. Don't forget." I smiled, then I also went upstairs.

I found Migs lying down immediately, he had not changed his clothes. He must be tired. "Are you tired?" I asked while removing my socks.

"Yup. I want a cuddle." He opened his arm, and he was like a child begging for a hug.

What the fuck? From me? Why is he being a baby right now? I can no longer understand him once. I sighed. Since I put him in the dark, I will also remove it. I'm just being a caring wife. I approached him, and I hugged him. We stayed like this for 5 minutes, I think he fell asleep.

"Hey, I'm not yet changing my clothes. You too." I tapped his cheek.

"Let's just sleep like this. I'm really tired. I'm not used to grocery shopping, it's tiring." He said drowsily.

I sighed but also nodded. I'm starting to accept the fact that he will be my husband. I have no choice. When we decide to divorce, our family relationships will be broken. I don't want that. So while it's still early, I'm starting to get clingy. I'm starting to know my position as a wife of this bad boy.

**

I was startled when Migs suddenly move. It's morning because the sun is shining a little. I was about to get up but I heard someone talking at our door.

"They are so sweet." I think it's my Mom.

"They're very easy to get along with. It's a good thing, sissy." And I think it's Miguel's Mom.

Sissy? Oh, my gosh! Does that mean they are best friends? Why did I just find out? I just stayed in my position. My head was leaning on Miguel's biceps, while he is hugging my waist. I'm also hugging him him, while my head was pressed against his chest. He is taller, so I can't see his face.

"Let's go downstairs first. You might wake up the kids." His Dad giggled.

"That's right, bro," Dad said.

Are they four, best friends? Okay, I'm outdated. I heard them coming down so I could breathe properly.

"Hey, baby." He said in a sleeping voice. Oh, my gosh! It's like a seducing tone for me.

"Get up. Our parents are here already, you idiot." I said.

He hugged me tighter, so I was even closer to his chest. He just yawned, then just stayed in that position. I think he fell asleep again, fuck!

"Hey, Miguel. Get up already. I need to get ready now." I tried to push him but his strength.

Okay, I give up.

"Miguel Carter," I emphasized.

I heard him giggled. He kissed my forehead, then he released me from his embrace. I stood up, I looked at him.

"Within 10 minutes, you're ready." I narrowed my eyes before entering the bathroom.

**

Miguel is in the shower, while I'm done. I'm wearing a red dress, partnered with a pump red pointed heels.

"I'm done. The water is cold, fuck that." He complained.

"You didn't use the heater? Are you stupid?" I rolled my eyes.

"It's broken. It's because the water came out slowly, it was damaged." He scratched his head.

I sighed, "Tell the driver to call some mechanical engineers to fix it within this day. I don't want to take a cold shower tomorrow."

"K." I heard him whispered.

I just rolled my eyes. We both went down as well. I'm clinging to Miguel's arm. Pretty awkward, but no worries.

"You two really match each other well!" I heard Mom's yell.

Miguel and I giggled.

"Let's have breakfast." I took them to the kitchen.

They nodded. We are going to the kitchen. I am figuring out how will our parents seat? Because the chairs are not enough. I was shocked when the number of chairs there are enough for us, there were also foods.

"Don't worry. We delivered the chairs." Miguel's Mom said.

I just smiled at her, then sat down too. Miguel and I are sitting beside each other, as usual, and as always. Bruh.

"After a month, it's gonna be your wedding day!" Our Moms said excitedly.

I was startled, so I coughed. Miguel gave me a glass of water.

"Careful, baby." He said.

"Why so sudden?" I asked our parents.

"For your marriage to last longer." His Dad giggled.

I just nodded. We are too young to get married, what the fuck?

They just talked about our wedding. While Migs and I are sweet here on the side. Well, he's being super clingy. He would kiss my entire face, except the lips. Save it for the wedding. Then he will hug me and hold my hands. It seems like I just don't know.

**

Lunch when our family left. It's now evening, we already ate dinner. We are just chillin' while watching Netflix.

"I'm falling for you already." He mumbled.

I smiled, "Me, too." We're like a fool because we both laughed. We just cuddled. This is nice. This is the best.

**

Today is our wedding day. Our preparation is over, we have been preparing for the past few days.

"When I met and saw you, you're my type. I saw you once at your school. I pass by sometimes because I have other friends there. Then Dad told me that you're the one I will marry. Your name is familiar to me because my friends always tell me something about you."

"Bro, nothing like that!"

"Stop exposing us, Bro!"

"Luh, you stole my crush!" His friends yelled. They're funny.

"At first I didn't want to agree because my friends are idolizing and falling in love with you, but I also thought they were a fuckboy. So I agreed. I didn't expect to fall in love with you, but yeah, it happened. Hmm, always remember. You are the only woman I love you and I will love. I love you every day and until the next lifetime. I love you, Avy. " He kissed my forehead.

I was tearing a bit but smiled too.

"Miguel Carter, I did not expect you to be so famous. Like really! I first met you at dinner, because I was not interested in you." I laughed, "Since you're clingy, I fell. When you confessed to me that you're already falling for me. Hm, I fell for you first, before you. I already love you since day 1, because you are the man I will marry. I have no choice! "

"Hey, you have a choice!"

"Are you crazy? Your husband will be mine, if ever that there's a second option!"

"Luh, it's the first time you got serious!"

My friends said.

I giggled, "Always remember, you are the only man I love and I will love every day and for the rest of my life. I love you, Migs."

"You may now kiss the bride!"

"Give us kisses, too!"

"You're great, boss Miggy!"

Right now, we just treasured our very first kiss. We are now husband and wife. We are now united as one.

I am Avyanna Laurent-Carter, in duty as the wife of Miguel Carter.
