You know i make you wanna scream..

'You fucking what?' Brian said loudly, as himself, Johnny, Arin, Zacky, Dan and I sat around a table having beers at Johnny's bar. The rest of the guys stared at me blankly.
'I proposed, and she said yes.' I said calmly.

'You just got out of a fucking marriage - with a cheating bitch that is - and now you're jumping back into one? Do you like being trapped or something?' Brian said it as if he was speaking on fucking behalf of the rest of them.
'Eleanor's nothing like Valary, and you know that, Brian.' Arin said, being the peacekeeper.
'I know that, and I love El to pieces, but are you sure you really want to rush back into another marriage so soon?' Brian sighed.
I nodded. 'I'm sure. I love Eleanor more than anything, and I can see myself with her forever.'
'You said that about Val.' Zacky snorted. Trust Zacky to have something negative to say, due to the fact I was engaged to his ex.
'I still did see myself with Val forever up to the time she cheated on me. Things change when people cheat, Zacky, ya know?' I smiled slyly at him
'Nice one.' he muttered. 'But regardless of all that shit, once you're happy with Eleanor and she's happy with you, I'm happy for you guys.'

I looked over to Dan and Johnny, who were looking a bit too intoxicated to criticize me.
'Well,' Brian said. 'Once you're sure you're not gonna catch her fucking the guitar tech in your shed, and you do truly feel happy with her, go for it man.'
'Same here.' Arin said. 'El's a great kid, and she really does seem to adore you.'
'Thanks guys. It means alot that you're okay about it.'
We ordered another round of beers then.
'So how's Isabelle these days?' I said, the few beers I had in me giving me the dutch courage to bring up an extremely sensitive topic between Zacky and I.
Zacky looked immediately uncomfortable. 'She's good, thanks.'
'She kicking the shit out of any more of her boyfriend's exes?' Johnny slurred, laughing.
'Shut up, Johnny.' Zacky scoffed. The tension in the air was strong.
'How bout another round of beer?'




~ELEANOR'S POV~

Mom and I decided that after lunch, we'd go for drinks somewhere, 'a celebratory day drinking session', she had called it.
We sat, drinking cocktails and talking about the wedding.
'You need to have the 'something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue' tradition at it.' She said firmly. 'I remember when I got married to your father, I swore that when I had a girl, she would wear the blue earrings I wore on my wedding day, and I still have them, and they're going to be worn.' she grinned, her eyes filling up again.
'Mom, you need to stop crying.' I laughed. 'It's my wedding, not my funeral.'
'I know, I know.' she blubbered. 'I'm just ecstatic for you. Speaking of your wedding, where is this fiancee of yours?'
'He met up with his band mates to tell them the news.' I said happily, looking around. I saw a girl with blonde hair walk towards our table who I recognized.

'What the fuck is on your left hand?' Valary growled as she stood at the side of the table, nearly burning a hole in my hand she was staring at it so intensely .
'Excuse me, who do you think you are speaking to my daughter like that?' My mom stood up angrily. She may have been 50 years old, but she wasn't scared of Valary, or anyone, for that matter.
'I am Matt's wife, actually.' Valary said self righteously.
'Ex wife. The divorce papers went through months ago.' I said, rolling my eyes. 'And what is on my left hand is the engagement ring he gave me, after he proposed.' I held out my hand, smiling viciously.
'No shit. So, I assume you told Mother Dearest here the full story, about how you were fucking Zacky one minute then the night Zacky cheated on you with Isabelle and I cheated on Matt with Anthony, you hopped straight onto Matt, right?'
My mother scoffed. 'I think what Eleanor told me is none of your goddamn business, and if you wouldn't mind leaving us alone and going back to your clearly sad life, since you went to the trouble of coming here and giving out to your ex's fiancee when really it's none of your concern.' Damn, I could see where I got my feisty attitude from.

'Don't put yourself under too much pressure, Mama Bear. I'd say that old ticker of yours isn't functioning as well as it used to.' Valary sneered at my mother. That was it.
'If you don't get the fuck out of our faces, I promise you Valary, I will call the police and have you arrested for harassment unless you're out of my sight in the next 10 seconds.' I said, low enough that no one else in the restaurant could hear, but loud and aggressive enough to make Valary turn on her heel and storm out of the restaurant. I looked back to my mother, who looked livid. 'And that would be Valary, the ray of sunshine in my life.' I said.
'She is a nasty piece of work.' my mom growled. I took out my phone and dialled Matt's number. He answered on the second ring.
'Hey baby. You okay?' he said.
'I'm fine, but I just had a little run in with your darling ex wife.'
'Valary, you fucking bitch. Where are you? Are you both okay?'
'I'm in a bar with my mom by the beach. I think we'll go back to my place. And we're fine, babe.'
'It's probably best to do that. Will I meet you guys there or do you want just some alone time with your mom?'
'No, come, mom's dying to meet you.' I glanced up at my mom, who was grinning from ear to ear.
Matt laughed. 'Okay, baby. I'll meet you there in 10. Love you.'
'I love you too.' I smiled as I hung up.
'I love him already!' Mom said. 'He seems so sweet.'
'He really is.' I sighed. 'Let's go.'

We decided it wouldn't be a good idea to drive, as we had both drank, so we walked to mine, which only took 10 minutes. I opened the door, and let us in. We went into the sitting room and sat down, but just as we did, the door bell rang.
'You ready to meet your future son-in-law?' I grinned at my Mom.
