Rude!
Hey Dolls! So I am a bit lost for inspiration at the moment, so I thought I’d give a song a try. This ones for Happy based on ‘Rude’ by Magic!
Love Saint xx
GIF not mine.
Saturday morning jumped out of bed and put on my best suit
Got in my car and raced like a jet, all the way to you
Knocked on your door with heart in my hand
To ask you a question
‘Cause I know that you’re and old-fashioned man
You had to catch yourself before you over filled the mugs of tea you were pouring for yourself and your parents, you were just so lost in your worrying thoughts. They had flown all the way to California, not only to visit you, their only daughter, but to meet your boyfriend, Happy.
You and Happy had been together for two years now, but all that your parents really knew about him was that he was a mechanic and that he treated you wonderfully. It wasn’t that you hadn’t wanted them to meet before, but your parents were real homebodies, that never travelled to far from home.
However, it wasn’t only that this was the first time they were to meet Happy that was making you nervous. It was because Happy had proposed to you three weeks ago, and he insisted that he wanted to make a good impression and do everything right by asking your fathers permission.
“He shouldn’t be too much longer, they are just so busy down at the garage” you said cheerfully, hoping to hide your nerves, while carrying in the tray of tea.
For the next ten minuets you chatted happily about everything that had been happening back home, and how you had been finding Charming. You told them all about the club, and the boys, excluding the south of the law details, of course.
You all turned your heads to the window at the sound of a motorbike pulling into the driveway. You walked out to greet him with a kiss, and you could tell how uncomfortable and nervous he was. He was never much for socialising outside the club, but he was mainly worried about making a good impression because of how much he loved you.
Walking inside you started the introductions;
“Mum, Dad, this is Happy. Happy this is my Mum, [M/N]” Happy nodded and greeted her with a small smile, before you continued.
“And this is my Dad, [D/N]”
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, sir”, he stuck his hand out to shake your fathers hand, but your father simply responded with a stern nod.
You took a deep breath, so far this was going about as awfully as her mind had imagined, but as ever she remained optimistic.
“Well, lunch should nearly be ready, so why don’t we all go sit down” you said, trying to be a positive buffer to the tension.
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes 'cause I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 'til the day I die
Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is no!
Lunch was filled with awkward silences as you tried to find a common ground you could all talk about, uncomfortable laughing continually spilling from your mouth as you tried to lift the mood.
By the time you had served the after dessert coffee, you could tell that all three of them were ready for this to finish, and you still hadn’t got to the hardest part.
You shared a look with Happy, reaching under the table to take his hand, trying to still his shaking leg that was almost shaking the whole table.
You cleared your throat before you began, “Ahem…Dad. Happy has something that he would like to ask you”, you turned to him with a small smile to trie and reassure him.
“Sir, I would like to ask for your blessing to marry your daughter.”
Your fathers face turned to stone, while your mother sat in shock.
“Absolutely not.” Your father said sternly.
“Daddy!”
“No, [Y/N]. I’m not arguing, he will never have my blessing as long as I live. You didn’t think we would do some research on that motorcycle club. You’re mother and I were both very disappointed but didn’t say anything. We figured this was a phase and you would move on. But I will absolutely not allow my baby girl to marry anyone associated with them. Look at him! He’s obviously no good, you don’t need google to tell you that, and he must be more than 10 years older than you!. This,” he said gesturing between you two, “is over. You are coming home.” He finished, standing abruptly from the table.
You couldn’t believe what you were hearing. You had always known your parents were a little old fashioned but you had never thought that they could be this judgemental. You knew that at first sight they wouldn’t love the sight of Happy. Yes, he was a little older, yes he was covered in tattoos, and yes he was a little shy, but your father was just being cruel. And you were prepared to fight.
You jumped up from the table, “Dad you aren’t being fair-”. You stopped when Happy stood and turned to you, holding both your hands.
I hate to do this, you leave no choice, can't live without her
Love me or hate me, we will be boys, standin' at that altar
Or we will run away to another galaxy, you know
You know she's in love with me, she will go anywhere I go
“Sir, Your daughter is the best thing that has ever come into my life. Her smile, her laugh, her sense of humour, her compassion, her taste in awful movies, the fact that she could love someone like me - I am crazy about her. I love her….and I will always keep her safe”
By this point you could feel tears pricking your eyes, your hand still in Happy’s.
Happy’s stare never wavered from your fathers.
“No.” Your father responded, rigidly.
You’d had enough. Leading Happy by the hand to the front door, you stopped to face your parents.
“We are going to go out for a while. You can stay here. I think everyone needs time to calm down. I know you want to protect me, but I love him, and you can’t control me anymore, I’m going anywhere he goes.”
Your parents stood there in shock. You walked out the door, but Happy stopped turning back to your father.
“This isn’t how I wanted this to go, and I tried to make a good impression. I hate to say this, but…I’m going to marry her anyway”
With that you let the house, mounting his bike and riding away. You wrapped your arms around him, squeezing him gently.
You were so happy with him, and even though your parents had chosen to be so rude, you were in love, and nothing would change that.
