Chapter one: The bride

"Well? Do I look good?"

Mimi stepped from the room where she had been changing clothes. She had most gorgeous and romantic dress of rose-patterned satin, pale pink and with a red rose on the bodice and crowning her veil. Red roses meant love, after all. Her bouquet was made of same flowers .

"You look stunning. That dress is gorgeusness!" Cassie sighed. She had scarlet satin-dress and a bouquet of white lilies.

"You look good too!" Mimi said. She looked around the empty wooden house. Not guests, like in Brady and Horton weddings. "Quality is important, not quantity, " she smiled.

"That´s definitely true, " Bonnie said. She had silver trousers and tomato-coloured blouse with lot of cleavage. "We don´t need filthy Horton bitches like Julie here." She smiled a proud smile to her daughter . "You look wonderful, baby."

"Thanks. I´m happy you came, after all."

"Honey, you can´t marry that crazy freak of the nature!"

"Yes, I can! He is the best thing which has ever happened to me! And I will marry him!"

Bonnie shrugged. "He´s handsome, rich, probably good in bed..."

"Mother!" Mimi blushed and Cassie grimaced.

"Okay, great in bed. But most importantly, baby girl, he´s a classy good-hearted guy who loves you. So he makes you happy. That´s most important."

Mimi smiled. "Mother, you are... so right."

"Where´s Rex?" Cassie asked impatiently. "And father and Ej..." She stared out of the window, to the stormy dark night. "And the judge."

"I hope they are not caught," Mimi said.

"Nonsense," Bonnie said. "They have just problem with storm." She sighed. "But you are leaving Salem after this."

Mimi smiled. "We must. Shawn and John will never stop blaming Rex for being "danger" to Bradys and Blacks. "

Bonnie sighed. " I know..."

"They are coming!" Cassie interrupted them, and the car-lights in the dark, rainy window told she was right.

Soon the door was opened and all four men - Rex, Tony, EJ and the judge Tony had bribed - dashed in. All had dark suits, and all except judge had a gorgeous white rose in the buttonhole.

"We had problems to mislead the trio Bo, John and Shawn," Tony said. "But now we are here."

Judge opened his book.
