***UPDATE - 24/07/14 - kinda important to re-read to get in insight on Ella***
People stood clapping and cheering even louder as Buzz, Bo and Ella began to make their way down the stairs. A giant red carpet trailing downwards with a golden rim lined the stairs and they were also extremely steep. The hall was massive with white walls and a white ceiling. Again another chandelier hung high above everyone; this was the biggest of all the ones seen within the house.
The floors had black and white tiles which could barely be seen due to all the people. Brown tables were spread across the room with different food and drinks arrayed across the surface. Men and women of all different shapes and sizes were all around and all were wearing different coloured outfits. Some were pretty and some were not.
Jessie stood in shock at the sight around her. Bart tugged at her arm to hint she had to go down the stairs. “Come on Jessie.” He grumbled to her as they started to walk down.
Jessie’s eyes widened as they started down the first few steps. ‘What if I fall? I can’t walk in these shoes on a flat surface let alone stairs! I might fall and knock into Bo and send them all flying, Father would go mental. Oh dear.’ Without noticing she began to tremble as she made her way down the stairs. Bart could feel the vibrations of his daughters arm through his. He looked at her and for once you could see the concern for his daughter in his eyes.
“Jessie are you okay? You’re shaking and look a little pale.” He asked
“I-I’m fine.” She said stuttering and trying to calm herself.
As they got just after halfway Jessie stumbled a little over her dress causing her to fall forward. Bart quickly yanked her back before she could fall completely over.
‘I knew I would trip!’ she thought. She could feel her cheeks turning the same colour as her hair.
“Jessie stop being so clumsy!” Bart complained.
“Yes father...” she mumbled back to him.
Finally they reached the bottom causing Jessie to breathe a sigh of relief. Buzz made his way to the grandstand that stood at the back of the room. Everyone turned to look at him.
“Welcome dear friends and family,” Buzz began. “I am so happy you could attend such a splendid party to celebrate my engagement to the beautiful Bo Jane.” He said smiling at Bo. She childishly smiled back blushing a little. “We hope you enjoy tonight as much as we will. And it gives me great pleasure to introduce future members of the family. I would like to introduce my beautiful fiancé Miss Bo Jane and her parents Bart and Betty Jane along with her younger sister Miss Jessie Jane. And of course my beautiful daughter Ella.” He said smiling.
Bo made her way up to him and placed her hands in his giving him a big smile which he returned. Bart and Betty stood just behind Bo while Jessie stood to the side of her parents.
“I’d also like to thank my beautiful head maid Abigail and her dashing fiancé Sam for making the hall look amazing for tonight, without them it wouldn’t have been possible.”
The cheering continued for about a minute. All smiles were upon the podium except for Jessie who held a straight face. She looked around at all the people. ‘I do not know half of these people so Buzz and Bo aren’t gunna know half of them either. Or will they..?’ She thought to herself.
She looked around at the people and noticed an elderly man in a pink suit with grey hair and a grey beard holding a cane staring at her. He began to whisper something into a boy standing next to him’s ear. The boy next him had a dull yellow suit and dirty blonde hair. A half smile crept across his face once the elderly man had pulled away from him. Jessie turned her head away from the two out of fear. ‘What was all that about? They don’t look like the sorta people you wanna mess with.’ She thought to herself.
“Now then, on with the party!” Buzz smiled to everyone.
The party seemed to go extremely slow for Jessie. Most the night consisted of her talking to people she pretended to know, dancing with men a lot older than her, talking to her future in-laws and watching couples dance merrily and kiss.
“Ugh, seriously there is a time and a place for that.” Jessie complained as she watched one couple smooch on the other side of the room.
Jessie watched the way Abigail and her fiancé Sam acted around each other, everything about them as a couple seemed perfect. Sam had short brown hair and wore a grey suit and like Jessie, he had green eyes. She’d only met him a few times but he had always very kind to her, much like Abigail was. The two were just perfect for each other. ‘They are the best couple here.’ She thought to herself.
Ella flitted about from person to person, dancing with almost everyone there. Everyone complimented her and said how beautiful she looked and that Buzz had produced a fine little girl. Some people even said she looked an awful lot like her Mother with Buzz’s eyes.
Jessie never knew her Mother, she died not long after giving birth which was before the Jane’s had met the Lightyear’s.
She did have to admit, Ella was beautiful and they were all correct when they said Buzz had produced a beautiful girl.
Most the night Bo was all over Buzz, kissing him every five minutes until eventually she left his side and made her way over to Jessie.
Jessie was standing next to a table with her arms folded looking miserable.
“Why the long face? I think you’ve been hanging around with that horse too much.” Bo said jokingly to Jessie which didn’t amuse her.
“Oh come on Jessie it was only a joke.” Bo said frowning at her little sister.
“Do you see me laughing?” Jessie questioned before turning to look at Bo.
Bo sighed, “What’s the real reason you are so miserable then?”
“This! It is so boring! All I am seeing is people kissing and dancing! And then people that know me but I don’t know them start talking to me about my life!” She shouted flinging her arms in the air.
Bo laughed at Jessie. “Are you jealous that nobody is kissing you?”
“No way am I jealous! Romance is pathetic.” Jessie said harshly to her sister.
“You say that now but wait till you are engaged to be married.”
“I am NEVER getting married!! Jessie said emphasising her point.
“Oh and why is that?” Bo asked with a half smile.
“Because it’s stupid, you pay like a million dollars just to get a piece of paper saying you’re married, oh and boys are disgusting.”
Bo just laughed at her sister’s opinion on marriage before pointing over to her Father “Oh yeah, Father wants to see you, his over there.”
Jessie groaned before heading off in the direction of her father. ‘What have I done now?’ She thought.
Bo smiled and watched her sister go before returning to Buzz’s side.
Jessie made her way through crowds of people each saying hello to her in which she replied with a smile. She reached her father who was standing and chatting with the two men who were staring at her when they were on the grandstand which made her feel suspicious.
They were laughing and joking but all silenced when Jessie approached.
“Ah Jessie my dear.” Bart said with a smile. She could smell the foul scent of brandy and whiskey upon his breath; he wasn’t drunk at this moment in time but was quite close to it.
“Father,” she said falsely smiling, “Bo said you wanted to speak with me.”
“Yes I did, I did indeed. I’d like to introduce you to my dear friend Lotso Huggin and his son Chunk Huggin.” He said gesturing towards the two men.
Jessie turned and looked at the two men; she now had a better view of them as she was up close. Lotso was quite chubby, bigger than her father. He had brown eyes and a fairly big nose. Chunk on the other hand had dull shaded blue eyes and a small thin nose.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you Miss Jane.” Lotso said tilting his head at Jessie.
“And it is a pleasure to meet you my good sir.” She replied.
Chunk smiled and Jessie and took her hand and kissed it. “Lovely meeting you Jessie.” He said smiling at her.
‘And it is nice meeting you to.’ She said smiling
“The Huggin’s have been friends of mine for a good few years now; they are very nice folks, very nice indeed.” Bart smiled.
Jessie smiled at her father. ‘Well they give me the creeps.’ She thought.
“Why don’t you go off with Chunk and get to know him instead of standing in the corner looking sorry for ya’self.” Lotso suggested to Jessie.
“That sounds like a good idea.” Chunk said with a smile to Jessie.
“Yes... it does.” Jessie said with a half smile.
Chunk took Jessie’s arm in his and they made their way into the dancing area.
She took a glance back at the two men who were smiling at her. She sighed to herself and looked forward again.
“So, what do ya think ya daughter will say when she finds out about the betrothed marriage between herself and Chunk?” Lotso asked slyly smiling at the two as they made their way.
“Oh I think she will be quite surprised.” Bart said with an evil smile. “Quite surprised indeed.”
A/N - Ohhh what horrid people they are. Stay tuned for chapter 9!!!
