One night, when he was working in the local take away, he met Lucienne Deplantier. He instantly fell in love with her good looks and personality. Her family were very strict, but lived on Ritual Island, so he married her straight away. They didn't have much money, as he had lived in a council apartment since his Aunt and Uncle's death, and she had been staying in a cousin's house outside of town. They needed a house quickly, and this being LA, there were no cheep decent places about.
They bought a small shack near to the sea, which only had two bedrooms. The couple made it very beautiful, but it was too small for them. When they found out that Marcellia was coming it was a big problem. Lucienne worked over time a lot, to get the extra money, and Laurent asked about for money. It was big problem, but they soon took out loans to cover the cost for the next biggest apartment. To their surprise, they got a lot for their money. Both of the bedrooms were large and there was a lot more living space. When Marcellia came that night, they were prepared with the space they needed.
