Chapter 1

A crying shame.

Tossing and turning through the night Violet did not get much sleep. She didn't sleep hardly except when her disgusting husband was gone. Violet lived in a new house and alone unless her husband was home drunk or sick. She always dreaded him coming home and calling her his dear Countess Violet. She was finishing her lunch as she heard him coming up the driveway.

She looked up as he walked in. She looked down when she saw he was coming into the kitchen. He sat in the chair beside her and put a bouquet of flowers in front of her. She looked up and smiled without being able to stop herself. She stood up and hugged him. "Thank you Count Olaf." As she said his name she remembered who she was dealing with and she quickly stepped back. "Sorry I didn't realize what I was doing." Olaf shook his head. "My dear a wife can hug her husband anytime she wants. Especially one as beautiful as you." Violet looked up. Maybe he is not as bad as I thought. He does seem to be nice. No do you not remember what he did do Klaus and Sunny. Yeah well he is being very nice I think I should give him a chance. I don't think you should, to prove my point go ahead. Fine I will.

She looked at him and smiled. "I am sorry I haven't been the most well happy or forgiving person. I am willing to try and make this marriage work." Count Olaf smiled and nodded his head. "Would you accompany me to dinner with my troupe on Saturday?" He looked at her his eyes slightly pleading. She smiled, "of course. But I don't have anything to wear." Count Olaf stood and offered her his hand. She took it and followed him into the living room. "Would you like to go shopping to get some new clothes?"

She looked up at his face and smiled a big grin. "Really I can. Oh yes please." She quickly hugged him and gave him a small kiss on the cheek and ran to get her shoes. When she came back into the living room she saw Olaf at the door waiting patiently. She walked over to him and hooked her arm through his and they walked out of the house together. As they got into the car Violet watched the scenery. They had moved to a beautiful part of the city.

Olaf parked the car and got out. He walked over to Violets side of the car and opened her door. She got out of the car and started walking towards a shop until she realized Olaf wasn't following her. She stopped and turned "Whats wrong ho..honey?" He looked at her startled that she called him honey. "Oh um I don't really you know do the shopping thing." Violet frowned, "come on. I am getting clothes so I don't look bad in your company. You have to help me pick at least one out. Please." She pouted a little and drooped her eyes to try and convince him. She smiled gleefully when he sighed and walked over to her. He looked at her and opened the door waiting for her to go through before him.

He watched her walk through, I can't believe i am doing this. Used to she never would have affected me what is wrong with me. Well one thing might be you are talking to yourself and just look at her. She is beautiful. You are lucky she is giving you a chance. Yeah i know well let's get on with shopping. He walked in and looked for Violet. He saw her looking at a few figure showing dresses. She started walking towards the dressing rooms but stopped and waved for him to follow. He sat in a chair and waited for her to come out to ask for his opinion. He heard the door open. He looked up and saw Violet in a beautiful red dress. His thoughts wandered over her figure and landed on her curvy hips and her chest.

Violet walked out of the dressing room and stood waiting for his opinion and for him to d\say she looked terrible. She looked at him and he looked at her with a weird look she had never seen him look at her with. She waved a hand in front of his face. He jumped and realized where he was. He looked at her and blushed like his thoughts had been thinking thoughts that were best not said out loud. "So what do you think?" He looked at her and motioned for her to turn in a full circle. She did. He thought for a moment, "I like it. Are there any others you want to try on?"

Violet ready to be denied the dress walked back into the dressing room then came out with a shocked look on her face. "What? Uh...I mean yeah I like a few others." She slowly walked towards him and gave him a hug. He hugged her back. "Come on lets see the other ones." He started talking to her as she tried on a few other dresses. They both liked them all. "I have one more I want you to try on." He handed her a white wedding dress. She didn't notice that it was a wedding dress until she walked out.

When she walked out she looked for Olaf. She went to turn around and change out of the dress when she saw him on the ground. He saw her and he walked over. "Are you alright. I thought you left when I couldn't find you. So do you like the dress?" He smiled at her and nodded. "Why don't you you look in the mirror Violet." Violet did as she was asked and looked in the mirror. When she saw her reflection she gasped. She quickly turned and saw Olaf on one knee. She took a step back. He gently grabbed her hand and pulled her in front of him.

"Violet I love you and I always have. I am truly sincerely sorry about sending away Klaus and Sunny. I did it so we had a chance to get to know one another. I have loved you from the moment you moved in with me. I humbly and desperately ask. Will you marry me?" He looked at her and opened a small velvet box that had a ring inside. The ring had a diamond in the middle and a few smaller dark stones surrounding it.

She took a step back and put her hand on her head. She felt a migraine coming. She thought of how nice he had been since their first wedding when she was fourteen. Now sixteen she felt an emotion tugging at her heart. "I...uh...I'm feeling faint." As she said it she fainted and thankfully Olaf caught her in time to stop her from hitting her head on the floor of the store.

Olaf carried her to the car and put her in the passenger seat. Before he got in he put the eight dresses and four outfits he had bought her in the trunk. He looked over at Violet with caring eyes every few minutes. When they arrived home he carried Violet upstairs to her room and placed her lovingly on the bed. He kissed her forehead before going and getting her clothes. Violets eyes fluttered open when she looked around she saw it was almost midnight. She got off the bed and realized that she was in her nightgown. She blushed at the thought of Olaf changing her. She remembered what had happened. She mentally laughed at herself for fainting. After putting her robe on she walked downstairs into the kitchen. She turned on the light and saw a not on the counter. She walked over and picked it up.

Dear Countess,

After your incident at the stores I brought you home. Don't worry I did not change you a friend of yours did. Justice Strauss. Anyways when you read this please come into the living room.

Yours truly,

Count Olaf

Violet reread the note and than put it down. She hesitantly walked into the living room to find another note. She sighed thinking it would say he had gone out to get drunk. She picked the note up and unfolded it.

Dear Countess,

Good morning. I am hoping that you will join me on the veranda for a quick breakfast or lunch or dinner depending when you wake.

Yours Truly,

Count Olaf

Violet folded the note back up and quickly walked out towards the veranda. As she walked through the doors leading to the veranda she gasped and stopped...
