Starless Nights
Chapter 1: Regrets
Laura Sue gazed out of the large bay windows and sighed. How had she gotten herself in this mess!? She began to cry and ruin the make-up that had taken hours to painstakingly apply. She thought of her father and mother and the resort. She saw her soon-to-be mother-in-law, Lillian Cutler's, steel eyes glaring at her.
"Laura Sue!"bellowed out a cold voice, "What are you crying for, girl!?"
Laura Sue turned around quickly and, in doing so, she twisted her wedding dress. She quickly dabbed at the tears that had strewn all over her face. "I'm just so..happy." said Laura Sue as she plastered on a fake smile and began to straighten her dress up.
She looked into the steel cold eyes of her soon-to-be mother-in-law. Oh, if only it were Bronson standing at the altar waiting for her. Instead, it was mama's boy, Randolph Cutler, that she would be exchanging vows with. Laura Sue reassured herself by thinking of the good things that would come out of this marriage. Altough she would never love Randolph as much as she would Bronson, he would be able to lavish her with gifts. Randolph would also be able to give her more love and attention than Bronson could. Sometimes, she wished that he would pay half as much attention to her as he did to his crippled sister
"What are you doing in here!?" demanded Lillian Cutler. She had a very angry look on her face that caused Laura Sue to flinch, "The wedding has begun and you're standing here bawling like a baby! Get down there right now! I forbid you to stain the Cutler family's honor, Laura Sue! I do not approve of this marriage, but my husband seems to like you."
Laura Sue felt as if she were going to burst into tears any minute. She lowered her head and began to leave the hotel. The wedding was to be in the garden and there would be big reception in the hotel's dining room. Of course, there would be thousands of people watching her every move and the thought of that made Laura Sue smile in anticipation.
