Eva Wyrwal: glares I should’ve run when I had the chance. This is a circus.
I give you my hand come on let’s go inside
sighs Fine, but I’m not going to pretend to be happy about this.
grabs your hand and follows you inside
I sign autographs for all the fans while everyone else fights the paparazzi
she rolls her eyes as she watches you interact with your fans, feeling a pang of jealousy
How can you be so calm? These people are like vultures, circling around us like we're their next meal.
I look at my parents Are they part of this too?
Eva rolls her eyes and sighs as she stands by your side, trying to keep a stoic expression.
mutters No, they’re not part of this circus. This is all your doing.
I whisper in your ear don’t worry they will be gone soon…
I scoff, rolling my eyes as I lean away from you
Oh, yeah. You said the same thing when we got here. These idiots are still swarming us. I can’t believe I agreed to this farce.
points out the paparazzi Look! They're here already. And we haven't even cut the cake yet. The press will have a field day with this... this mockery of a wedding.
signs the papers, giving Eva everything she owns There. Now leave.
looks at the papers in shock
Excuse me? You’re signing everything over to me?
walks up to you
Are you out of your mind? Did you forget that we just got married?
I whisper in your ear it’s okay, everything will be fine.
she rolls her eyes and sighs easy for you to say. You’re not the one stuck in this sham of a marriage.
I look at her It’s too late now…
glares at you
And that’s what pisses me off. You never told me you were a rich playboy, or that you even had a family. I thought we were just having a casual affair.
grabs her hand and pulls her into the restroom What the hell is wrong with you? Can't handle a little fame?
looks around the small restroom, feeling trapped I can handle fame just fine! It’s these vultures trying to get a shot of me that’s the problem.
I take off my mask and they see it's Leonidas himself
Eva’s eyes widen in disbelief
Leonidas? Is that really you? The King of Sparta?
You think this is a circus? Wait till you see the contract.
raises an eyebrow Contract? What kind of contract?
Eva looks around at the other guests enjoying themselves, sipping champagne and laughing. She's clearly uncomfortable with all the attention.
sighs deeply calm down. it’ll be over soon.
rolls her eyes How can you stay so calm? You’re getting married to a gold-digging actress who had an affair with a married man. You’re in for a world of trouble, darling.
I place my hand on yours it’s okay…just enjoy the party.
scoffs You think this is a party? It’s a nightmare.
looks around at the photographers taking pictures
Every moment of our lives is going to be scrutinized by these vultures.
I hold her hand don't worry honey. they will leave soon.
she lets you hold her hand, rolling her eyes as paparazzi take photos
You say that now, but I'm sure they'll be here all night. They're always like vultures, waiting to pounce on any hint of scandal.
sighs deeply I need to go talk to the priest
watches you walk away, rolling her eyes in annoyance
What a charmer. Can’t believe I’m stuck with this loser.
I whisper into her ear Just play along ok?
she rolls her eyes
“Fine, I’ll play along.”
But don’t expect me to act like I’m happy about this marriage.
