Summary
A study of Vanessa and Lucy's relationship after the abduction told from Vanessa's point of view...
Chenford Week 2026
Prompt: outsider POV
---The meaning was clear: You allowed this.
Vanessa didn’t allow anything. Lucy did what she wanted, and in the end all her pushing only pushed her away. However, in her mother’s view it’s clear who’s to blame here, and it’s not her granddaughter because: Parents guide their children.
And Vanessa didn’t.
“Call her,” she said as she indicated for Vanessa to refill her tea, and she did, later in the car, because it is hard to tell her mother no. But the call went straight to voicemail, and she left it at that; she didn’t know what to say anyway. She later found out second-hand how Lucy was doing—from her sister and, ironically, her mother.
Now she can’t call, even though she did, irrationally, right after hanging up, the words ping-ponging around in her brain: “Your daughter has gone missing. It’s very likely she and her boyfriend have been abducted.”

Summary
Lucy goes wedding dress shopping, but it's more difficult than she expected.
Chenford Week 2026
Prompt: Clothes!---
“When’s Angela picking you up tomorrow? She would not shut up about it today, by the way.”
Lucy smiles. “At ten thirty, I think. And it’s cute. She’s invested. They all are. There are a Pinterest board and a group chat named ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ now, which is… ah… let’s just say active.”
“You know, I have a solution if you want to do something about it,” Tim smirks as he goes to wash his hands in the sink. Kojo has wandered to his favourite evening spot and is lying on his back, all four paws up in the air to enjoy the last sunlight of the day. “Mute it.”
“Funny.” Lucy rolls her eyes. “No, it’s nice. I love that they’re having fun. I love that they’re happy for us. And I love that Angela is taking me to this exclusive bridal boutique. I do.”Series

Summary
Tim and Lucy go on their well-deserved honeymoon in France and continue their journey of healing... and start thinking about their future.
Chenford Week 2026
Prompt: Chenford in the wild
___It feels different.
Lucy didn’t expect it to, and why would she? All they did in the end was sign a legal contract. An unromantic way of looking at it, maybe, but the truth. The document in question has since been filed, and the State of California now considers them married: Tim is her husband, and she is his wife.Series
