Countdown to the wedding: 1 day.
I knew my father would be worried sick if I didn't show up back at home after a couple of days, but I didn't care. I wanted to spend as much time with Hook before we told my father about our little arrangement. I knew he wouldn't be the happiest and might not agree with our choice.
We tried not to think about what my father would say as we boarded the ship and sailed home.
When we got there, we were immediately swarmed by guards. They held Hook back, away from me. Suddenly, my father emerged from the crowd.
"Bethany! What do you think you're doing? Running away and returning a day before your wedding? And with him?" He gestured towards Hook. I smiled and shook my head. I spoke softly as I told him my wish.
"Please, hear me out Father. I have decided to cancel my wedding to this prince whom I have no interest in marrying, and marry Captain Killian Jones, aka Hook, instead." "What? Bethany darling you can't be serious!" My father burst, baffled. I nodded. "Yes Father, I've thought it all through. When Hook first captured me, I too thought he was a deceitful, evil pirate, but now, I've come to know him better, and Father, I think I love him." I pulled away from the guards and ran over to Hook, wrapping my arms around him.
"He's the one I want to marry, not some stingy old prince. And he has the money too, so we don't go bankrupt. Please Father, this is what I want. With all of my heart." My father took a deep breath. "If this is truly what you want, my dear. Then we'll make it happen." He turned to Hook. "Do you really have the money?" He asked. Hook nodded. "Do you really love my daughter?" Hook nodded again. "Yes sir. I'm absolutely in love with your daughter. I'd do anything to help her." He squeezed my side a bit tighter and my father smiled.
We had convinced him.
