CLARKE'S POV "Hello mother, please come to my room for there is something I want to tell you,"I called my mother using my phone once Hunter dropped me home to tell them of my decision. "You are scaring me, what do you want to talk about?" She asked once she walked into my room. "Just wait,"I stated. "You are scaring me and by the way how could you leave Kendall on her own last night?"She demanded an explanation. "Wasn't she dropped home?"I implored. "She was, though late,"She jested. "The good thing is that she got home safely. Or did you want something to go wrong?"I asked her. "What has gotten into you. Of course not!"She groaned. "I am fine mother." I scurried off to my walk-in closet and started getting some of my cloths out. "Why are you removing those?"My mother questioned. "I am packing mother."I stammered. "Are you going somewhere?"She went on with asking so many questions. "I am getting married mother,"I said hastily as if it was not a big thing. "What did you just say!"I felt the edge in her tone. "I am going to get married to the love of my life,"I repeated struggling to staff all my cloths in the bag. "You are 19 years old Clarke for Christ Sake,"She yelled. "I know mother but I also know what I am doing."I yelled back. "I am going to call Kelly's mother right now and tell her of this craziness that has gotten to the both of you, "She got to her feet. "I am not getting married to Kelly. I am going to get married to Hunter,"I tattled arching my lips upwards. "Who the hell is Hunter?"She asked. "The love of my life." "How long have you known this man?" "We met last night. He is the one who sponsored the American Next Top Model competition,"I sighed. "You can't marry a man you hardly know. Not in my watch,"She smirked. I closed the zippers of my suitcase and wanted to drag it out with me but she held it tightly. "You are not going anywhere Clarke,"She repeated. "I am mother, I am following my heart,"I used every ounce of energy to pull the bag and I ended up pushing my mother till she lost her balance. She fell on the tiled floor with a thud but I did not care. She should know better than keeping me away from my dreams. "I am sorry mother, but I have to follow my heart,"I repeated going downstairs. "You are leaving?"I met my sister downstairs and the moment she saw the bag, she asked. "Yes Kendall. I will come back soon. I promise. I will bring you so many expensive things,"I tried to make her feel good about me leaving. "But I don't want expensive things,"She argued. "I want to be happy Kendall, please, not so many people have supported that decision and I hope you are not one of them. "I sadly stated getting out of our house. "Maybe they are right,"She shouted after me. "I am sorry Kendall but nothing is going to change my mind. I am going to be with my love, Hunter Black," I spat before leaving the house and closing the door behind me. Hunter was to pick me up in a few minutes time.  We had agreed to meet in the park near our home and that was where I was heading exactly till I ran into Kelly. "I was looking for you,"He sighed when he saw me. "What for?"I stopped holding my suitcase and folded my hands in front of me to block him. "Clarke baby, I love you. Stop all this and let us be the way we were before. With that i mean, young and in love,"He begged me but I just shook my head in disapproval. "That is not going to happen."I sighed. "Why baby, why are you putting me through all this pain?" His voice was shaky and I could tell that he wanted to cry. "I see you are too quick to forget that you moved on so quickly,"I sighted once I recalled seeing the two of them together in the party. "She seduced me. Your friend has always been obessed with me and you know that. I don't love her. I love you Clarke. I love you so much,"He moved closer to hug me but I pushed him away. I was done with him and it would be nice if he would accept that fact and move on. "I don't love you. I love Hunter and I know I am going to be happy with him. If you love me as you profess, then set me free, if I come back to you then that is clear that I am destined to be with you. Well, if I don't then you will know that I was not your true lover,"I told him that stupid quote. "Please don't say that to me, you are crushing my heart,"He went on his knees and started begging for me to love him as tears streamed down his face. I stopped looking at him and looked at the road. He was being dramatic for nothing. How many times had I told him that I don't want him. He should get that in his stupid head. A few minutes passed and he kept on begging me but I had already turned on a deaf ear. How would I choose him over the millions of cash I was going to get by marrying Hunter this very night? "Bye,"I left him still on his knees when I saw Hunters car packed just a few metres from where we were. He smiled at me as I walked towards him dragging my suitcase on the tarmac. Kelly out of anger shouted that he might even be a vampire because he is f*****g unique and that was really none of my concern. He was just a helpless kid counting on love that had already faded and was not going to come by anytime soon. "Who is that?"Hunter asked after I hugged him. "My ex. He is still trying to get me back but I can't go back to him. I love you now,"I smiled as he placed my luggage on his car. "He is mine,"He shouted and grinned at Kelly humiliating him further. "Come on baby, lets go and get married,"I reminded him and we kissed lightly before we got to the car together. Hunter was right. It was really possible for me to leave everything and follow my heart. It is just love that will take our loneliness away and I was happy that I followed my heart. "Is it possible to be married at night?"I asked him because I have only attend weddings during the day and that is what every Tom, d**k and Harry knows of wedding. "Don't worry about anything my love. Everything is sorted. When you have me, you don't have to worry about any damn thing."He assured me with his lips arched upwards as he kept on driving. We got to the city hall and he was damn right about everything. I had expected this to be a very small thing but I found some of the people I saw in my after-party who were from the the AGT fraternity n the vicinity. One woman took my hand and led me to a certain enclosed room. I burst into tears when I saw a very nice wedding dress waiting for me. Hunter was full of surprises and this made me love him even more. "You look so beautiful,"The lady who was more of my maiden told me after I put on the dress. "Thank you ma'am,"I wiped my tears slowly not to ruin the make up she had applied on my face minutes before I dressed up. The wedding bells started ringing and I knew that it was time. I walked to the front of the hall slowly and the small crowd cheered for me. Hunter was dressed in a black suit and he looked so handsome. I fell in love with him even more. He watched me in admiration as I made my way to the front. "You look so beautiful Clarke,"He chanted once I got to the front. I smiled back because no better response could let him know of how glad I was to be marrying him. I loved him and how he treated me and I wished to spend every second of my life with him. We took our vows solemnly and I meant each and every word I said. The next part that he swept me off my feet is when I got to learn that our rings were made of pure gold. Saying I was going to have a fancy life from today hence forth was an understatement. Hunter was everything any woman could ask for. We kissed after we were happily married. We proceeded to sign some documents. Hunter excused the two of us from the crowd and we left the place after our first dance together. A helicopter was waiting for us and I quickly hoped in to start my honeymoon with my husband Mr.Black.
