1. Chapter 1

Snow White had been a happy child, she had had a happy normal family with a loving mother and father. As a little girl Snow and her mother had the best relationship any of their like could have. They always took it in turns to dress each other up and make each other look even more beautiful than they already were.

Snow was as her name depicted, she was as white as now and had hair as dark as raven feather, but her lips, they were the most beautiful shade of red. A shade her mother had strived to recreate in lipstick form for there was none like it anywhere. Mrs. White worked at a beauty salon and listened to all of the women complain that they could never find the right shade of red, one that would not drain them of colour. Her child was lucky enough to have that right shade of red for her natural skin tone.

Mrs. White loved her daughter, and wanted to earn more money so that they could live more comfortably. Snow's father had a job at the police station and it was so dangerous that they wished he didn't have to work their any more.

So one day when she was dressing her young daughter up Mrs. White decided that she would create the perfect red lipstick, for it was a sure fire way for her to earn more money. So she looked on the internet, she searched in all the books and she discovered how to make lipstick. Then she worked hard on finding the perfect colour, testing it against Snow's lips.

It wasn't long before Mrs. White was producing perfect red lipstick after perfect red lipstick on a professional line, in her own business. She worked harder and harder to switch up her style and the very definition of lipstick, she even managed to create lipstick that would last for a whole week without rubbing off, no matter how much you ate or how much chewing gum you blew bubbles with.

But all that hard work and all that effort, manage that well with a pre-teen daughter meant there was a strain placed on her health. She was working her body too hared and her organs were paying the price for it. For one day after the release of one of her lipsticks, Mrs. White suffered a heart attack, and as a result she died, leaving her husband and daughter without her in their lives.

And in her will, Mrs. White left her company, her entire fortune to her daughter, if she ever managed to find true love, for she herself knew how hard it was to have a business and she'd had a family, she couldn't dream of Snow experiencing it all without a lover. So Snow would have to wait til the day she was married before she would be allowed access to anything left to her in her mother's will.

Cue, Mrs. White second in command, a woman who promised to take care of everything in the business and to hand it over to Snow when she was ready. Snow had never liked this woman, for the fact she knew the woman was taking a lot of her money out of the account and was technically stealing from the both the company and her.

So Snow and her father grieved and spoke, talked about how much they missed their partner and mother and friend. Snow was pulled out of school for a while as she struggled to come to the terms, the fact that her mother was dead and some thief had taken over the company her mother had poured time and sweat and blood into.

And as she grieved and cried Snow managed to make herself stronger by promising and swearing to her mother's grave that she would find love soon, marry as soon as she could and take back the company and run it the way it was supposed to be run. In a family kind of manner. And if she didn't find love in time, she promised she would become an employee in the company.
