Two weeks had gone by in a blur. Weeks filled with witnessing death first hand… with finding out that everything she thought she knew was a lie… that she needed to reevaluate her life. And re-evaluate is exactly what she did. Anna Pierce had changed for what many would say, the better. And for that; Jessica had easily forgiven her. Sisters by chance; friends by choice. It was words that echoed in her mind after being said weeks earlier when Anna had apologized. Apologized for everything and the girl was truly working towards fixing her relationship with Jess. Anyone could see that. Dan might still not appreciate her attempts, and Andy McDandy probably still wasn’t the biggest fan alongside Jessica’s other friends - but she was trying.
A soft sigh left her lips as she sat frozen in the limo looking outside; watching as photographers stood there taking photos of who was at the wedding. Her sister wasn’t in attendance… for obvious reasons… but she almost didn’t want to be either. It took quite a bit of convincing from her sister who emplored her to go for her to have shown up; wearing a sparkly off-white dress nonetheless. Yeah… wouldn’t be surprised if she got a bit of shii for wearing that but too late now. “Ma’am?” her driver asked and the girl turned towards him. “Sorry,” She whispered, “I’m ready.” Was she? Technically she was trained for these types of events. Royal events; playing the part of the Pierce daughter who could easily fit into any crowd. But another part of her wasn’t ready. Something about everything that had happened recently worried her. Could she play the part as well as she had before death had knocked on the Pierce family doors. Or almost death? Well… guess there was no time like the present to find out. As her driver opened the door of her limo; she took a deep breath and held the man’s hand to help steady her up. Immediately a million photographers started clicking their cameras; flashes going on from every angle. Though instead of walking forward like the girl usually would have; Anna waited for a second for the next limo to exit with her little siblings and their aids. Yes; for these types of events, Jessica and Anna’s parents hired watchers to watch the 2 four-year-olds. Though she had made a promise that whenever she was there; she would stay with them. “Heyyyy loves,” Anna smiled; bending down as the little kids ran up to her immediately and hugged her leg. Emmy immediately put her hands up indicating she wanted to be held through a frown met the girl’s lips. “Later okay,” Anna whispered putting her hands out towards both of them, Will holding her left hand and Emmy holding her right, so she could walk inside with them - the aids close behind. Though photos were still being taken; the girl only bent down once to smile with her siblings before walking into the castle hall quicker than she usually would have with a red carpet-like photography session that would be posted on most of the tabloids around the world… within a few minutes honestly. After all; Part of being a Pierce was making sure photos were taken of her, though in any case, she moved on; tightening her grip on her sibling’s hands as to not lose them as they entered the castle where the ceremony was being held - before, of course, moving over to the ballroom or garden later for the reception. Royal weddings were, after all, always the same. Wedding in the castle hall; then depending on the time of day, either the garden was used for entertaining or the ballroom was.
Though entering the room; the girl immediately spotted all of Jessica’s friends - honestly most of them sticking out like sore thumbs amongst the crowd of people who regularly attended these types of weddings. Though she didn’t approach any of them; Instead Anna talked with her little siblings… something she hadn’t done in a long time as she walked towards their seat near the middle front. The senior class was seated farther behind her - which wasn’t a surprise. Taking a seat, a soft sigh of relief leaving her lips that she did so without getting stuck talking to any of her extended family members which was… always interesting… Anna smiled at the two children with her. Talking with the two as others slowly filled in. Though it wasn’t long until the two found another child in their midst and begin playing with the girl who seemed to be the flower girl for the wedding. And there she was again; sitting alone waiting for the event to start. Though she had waited only a few moments before taking her cellphone out of her clutch and texting her sister; checking in with the girl periodically.
Though she was distracted when a familiar blonde joined her row. Jezebel Sloane; her newly uncovered cousin. One who was right alongside Jessica in the hospital. Though technically Anna and Jezebel hadn’t spoken often; the two had seen each other when she visited her sister. “Good Morning Jezebel,” the girl stated; putting her phone down as she sat down near her. “I have to say I’m surprised you joined today… how’s the baby?”
