Shockward

Created by: Nosila

She was bitter because Melodie was marrying the only man that Melanie had ever loved...the groom, James. Not only did she declare her undying love for him, she announced that she was carrying his baby and wanted him to leave Melodie for her. Even the dance band striking up "YMCA" could not divert people from this debacle.

Created by: Tigger

Pronunciation: /blab-bom-uh-NAY-shun/
