side and ask her what
is wrong. "
       “ There isn`t any point, she probably wouldn ’ t tell us anyway , but looking at her and
Simon, I ’ d say their marriage
is definitely in trouble. ” Lizzie pointed out.
       The day of the wedding arrived, the weather didn't look
very promising at all as angry clouds loomed over Lighthouse Cove. Tammy looked
really nervous, I tried to calm her down and told her to stop worrying and that
everything would be fine.
    The wedding venue was beautiful. Tammy looked amazing; she
turned up in a horse and carriage. Her dress was ivory and made from silk; it
was long and flowing. She wore a small fascinator in her hair which
complemented her dress beautifully. Her bouquet was made up of red roses and
white carnations.
      When Tammy
entered the church the congregation stood up, and she walked down the aisle,
arm in arm with Ben. He ’ d offered to give her
away because Tammy`s father had died quite a few years before. The nervous
smile she ’ d had earlier was
replaced with joyful smiles. Roy stood at the altar looking very handsome in a
dark grey suit and a white carnation in his button hole. He looked so proud, as
she walked down the aisle, and he greeted her with a hug. They looked so happy
standing there together.
        The wedding ceremony was wonderful and after the
photographer had taken lots of photos, we went on to the venue next door; I
liked the idea of the church and venue both together, it was so practical.
    The wedding breakfast went very well; with a lovely sit
down meal.  After the speech, I decided to go to my room where I was staying
for the night, and settle Violet down for a sleep. Marco told me he would be
back later, and that he wanted to check on everything at the guest house . I
thought I would get a nap myself  before the evening disco . There was a
knock on my bedroom door. I was surprised to see Simon standing there.
       “ Can I come in? There ’ s something I need to tell you and I can ’ t keep it to myself any longer. ” He came in sat on the bed and blurted out.
        “ Bella you must know I ’ m in love with you. I have been for a longtime , I know I shouldn ’ t be because you are
my sister; but I can`t help it. ” He stroked my cheek;
mybody was aching for his touch, his kiss but I knew it was wrong.
       “ Please leave
Simon, it ’ s for the best. You
know nothing can happen between us . Go now beforewe both do
something we ’ ll regret. ”
    After Simon had left, I couldn't get him out my mind.
      I had a shower and got violet ready; hopefully
she would stay awake longer now, and sleep well later. Marco was back from the
guest house, and we all went down to the disco.
          Luckily the weather had turned out lovely
after a rather gloomy start. Simon played a lovely piece of music on his
guitar, ‘ You fill up my
senses ` filled the room, a
piece he always used to play for me and Apache for Tammy and Roy. I was so
pleased for them both, they looked so happy clapping along to the music,
smiling at each other lovingly.
    We had a lovely buffet and drank lots of good champagne. At
the end of the night there was a fireworks display and then a band was hired to
play some nice romantic music. I had to hide my feelings, as Simon and Victoria
danced closely together.  I glanced at Marco, he wasn't much company; I
wondered why he ’ d even come. The day
had been long, and I was ready for bed, I said my good nights and made my way
to my room.
        The next day Tammy and Roy left on their honeymoon to
Jamaica and we went back to the guest house ready for business.
      Simon and Victoria decided to stay a few more
days . He offered to help out at theguest house  and sort out the
gardens.
    The hotel was fully booked up for the next ten weeks
through the high season.
    Lizzie and James had been having problems for quite some
time and thought it was time to end their relationship and Lizzie moved into
the guest house.
    I had to admit
