Chapter Four
When Kayley finally got home, way past midnight, she was thoroughly drained. In mind and body. All the congratulations and attention she'd had to endure had completely tired her out. Kayley didn't like being the center of attention. She mused how another woman marrying the commodore's son would milk up the lime light, like a starving alley cat that hadn't eaten in months. But not her. Kayley was quiet and simple. Reserved. Maybe it was more a result of her past, more than anything. She used to be so zany and energetic. Now she just felt broken, shut down. She mused how ironic that she of all people was marrying the commodore's son. But that didn't matter. She was Will and Elizabeth's adopted daughter, and accepted.
Kayley pushed down memories that wanted to surface. No! She would never think of him again. Never! He was nothing to her. Climbing into the already turned down bed, the new fiance of the soon-to-be commodore fell into a fitful sleep. She was plagued with dreams she didn't want, but couldn't push down like she had so many other things.
A/n: Yeah, it's crazy short, but it was more of a filler than anything. I'll add Chapter Five, and then that's it for today. Please review!
