Chapter 3: I Do, Do You?

We left off with Violet and Camilo finally confessing their feelings to each other and finally becoming official! The next few days Violet knew she had to get everything in order and get her finances together. She couldn't spend as much time with her friends as she wanted and her and Camilo worked on two different schedules. So for now Violet decided to focus on her career and try and find other ways to make some money. While she was out for a jog one day she decided to pick some flower and plant them in front of her house because actual garden flowers were way out of her pay range right now.

Days went by and Violet had saved up enough money to finally get a sink!

Violet: Thanks Creator, now I actually have a place to wash things.

You know, I can't tell if you're being passive aggressive or not.

Let me present to you folks the first EVER remodel of the Belle Estate. I know it isn't much but Violet had made enough money to move out the room enough to add another counter to put the sink on.

Finally Violet and Camilo had a day off at the same time. Violet decided that they should probably go on their first date together since they were boyfriend and girlfriend.

Camilo: Thanks for meeting me here V I thought you might like the museum.

Violet: V? Where'd you come up with that?

Camilo: Oh well every relationship has cute nicknames right? I just thought V fit you pretty well.

Violet: Well what should I call you then? OH! I've got it! What about Cami Bear! Kinda like teddy bear, but instead it's your name?

Camilo: Ummm....whatever you think is best? You know what how bout you just call me Cam okay?

Violet: Well...it's not as cute but I like it just as much!

The rest of their date was filled with lots of PDA and discussing art they saw. Mostly it was just Camilo talking about art since he was a painter, Violet was more than happy to sit there and absorb every single word he said.

You guys remember how Violet gave Camilo a rose when she asked him out? Well Camilo gave her one back and quoted Simspeare by saying "A rose by any other name is just as sweet". Obviously Violet was confused because she barely passed Simlish 111 at her private school. Camilo explained that the statement meant that he didn't care what her name was and didn't care she was famous, he was with her for her.

After Camilo had given her the rose and made her feel all fuzzy inside he had to leave because he had work early in the morning. Violet sat down on her bed to eat the fish tacos she made the night before and came to a conclusion,

Violet: What Camilo said today is exactly what I needed to hear. Any other guy would want to date me because I'm famous, but..Camilo...he's different we get along so well and he has a silver tongue that just melts all my worries away whenever he talks. I know what I have to do! I'm going to wait til my next promotion and then I'm going to ask him to marry me!

With the money Violet got from workings so hard we were able to remodel the house again so that the bathroom area was actually closed off. Yay for privacy!

The next day Violet invited Camilo to the neighborhood pool and decided to talk to him about the serious revelation she had the other night.

Violet: Hey Cam I was wondering something...

Camilo: Yea V? Whats on your mind?

Violet: Um...well I was wondering if, ya know, when I get my next promotion if it would be alright if you moved in with me?

Psst Violet, that's not what you were going to ask!

Violet: Shut up! I know, I'm nervous okay?!

Camilo: Who are you talking to V?

Violet: Uh nobody. But what do you think Cam? Is that something you would be willing to do?

Camilo: Of course! I knew I would have to move in with you sooner or later, I read up on past legacies and read all the terms you had to agree too. One of them is that you have to stay on the same plot of land forever.

Violet: Well yea..I'm actually glad you read up on it! That way I don't have to explain everything to you.

The next day Violet couldn't contain the secret any longer and decided to invite her best friend over to tell her the big news.

Violet: LIBERTY! Omegosh I have sooo much to tell you! But first of all how have you been?!

Liberty: Well if you're this excited then it must be something big. But I've been fine, living with all those roommates is killing me slowly though. Especially the guys, like HELLO please put down the toilet seat so I don't have to take a midnight swim!

Violet: Jeez that's disgusting..but you ready to hear my big news?!

Liberty: Omygod you're pregnant.

Violet: UH NO. Buuuut something close to it!

Liberty: You...think you're pregnant?

Violet: No silly! I'm going to propose to Camilo! We've been dating a few months now and I think it's time, I'm just waiting to get my next promotion at work that way I can actually remodel the house into something decent for two people.

Liberty: OMYGOD NO WAY!! I'm so excited for you! I better still be able to hang out with my best friend, at least on a semi regular basis!

Violet: Well of course silly!

The rest of the day Violet and Liberty just talked and talked about where their lives were going and what they wanted to do for the rest of their lives. It made Violet happy to know that she had someone who would always be there for no matter what happened.

For the next few days Violet kept up her daily routine of tending her garden and keeping up with food orders. She was doing anything to get her mind off of Camilo and focused on getting that next promotion!

She even took up the hobby of collecting frogs and breeding them for extra simoleons!

Finally the night had come where Violet got her promotion! She was way to tired to invite Camilo over right now so she passed out in her bed and had blissful dreams of marriage and babies.

So are you ready to do this?!

Violet: I mean yea I guess..I'm like super nervous though.

Don't be! Just think of all the fun you guys have had together and how much he means to you.

Violet: Well when you put it that way...I'm going to finish this and then call him up!

As soon as Camilo was over Violet couldn't help herself,

Violet: I have something really important to tell you Cam and I want you to just shut up and listen okay?

Camilo: Alright V, but your making me really nervous..

Violet: Camilo Knapp the first time I ever saw you and all your tacky glory I knew you were someone special. Even though you walked away randomly from a conversation we had when we first met I still knew there was something about you that I liked, maybe even loved. Your selfless and kind, you're a textbook nice guy that literally helps old ladies cross the street and I want you to be mine. Forever.

Camilo: Yes, omygod yes I will marry you! I wish it could have been me proposing to you like it should be but I understand that you had to do it. I love you so much V and I promise to never do you wrong or ever look at another woman again!

After Violet had proposed to Camilo and he had moved in she got a call from Liberty saying it was her birthday and she wanted her to come over. Although it was short notice she couldn't say no to her best friend. Violet gave Camilo a swift kiss goodbye and went to spend the day with her best friend, Liberty Lee.

With that new promotion plus all the money she had been saving up Violet could renovate the house one more time. Now they had the perfect house for a couple! Violet splurged and even bought Camilo an early wedding present, his own art easel!

As the days went by Camilo and Violet were on two totally different schedules and hardly saw each other. while Violet was at work he was either watching TV or honing his art skills in order to get a new promotion

One day when they were actually home together Camilo decided to talk to her about the wedding,

Camilo: V I think you should take a vacation day so we can get married. Our schedules never match up so we have to use our vacation days.

Violet: Alright Cam I'll see what I can do, I just got this promotion but I think I may be able to sweet talk my supervisor. As long as I give him the puppy dog eyes he should let me take a day off.

Violet did get the day off and they decided to have the wedding that day, no waiting around or anything. Violet had to dig out her most expensive clothes, the ones she wore back when she was part of high society. The dress, pearls, and diamond earrings were the only thing she had to remind her where she came from. She wanted to feel, at least for a few hours, that she was back in Monte Vista with her mom and dad going to dinner parties, wearing fine clothes and not having a care in the world. She knew she could never go back to that though, so she stood with her soon to be husband in front of her own little cottage she built with her own two bare hands, and prepared to take her vows. 

Violet: I Violet Belle take you Camilo Knapp to be my lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health til death do us part.

Camilo: I Camilo Knapp take you Violet Belle to be my lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health til death do us part. Um oh yea I also kinda wrote something to add on to it, since you kinda gave me that really sweet speech when you proposed I thought I should do one when we got married.

Violet: Awww sweetie that's so sweet.

Camilo: Heh, so okay um. Violet when I first saw you in that white bikini walking over to me I thought I was going to drown from shock in that swimming pool right then and there. I couldn't believe that this smoking hot girl was coming over to talk to me! I then noticed who you were. You were Violet Belle, the girl who was crazy enough to start a Legacy. Honestly I wanted to get out and run away, and I almost did but when you smiled and said "Hi" well let's just say that you had me then and there baby. I didn't care who you were or what you did, I loved you from the very minute. So let's forget the whole "til death do us part" and stay together past death, let's stay together for eternity. I love you Violet Belle, and I always will.

That's all for today folks, tune in next time to see what is in store for the newly married couple! Until next time!
