FAN FICTION
"Zoë & Colin - A Love Story"
By Donna Moore


This is the story of the Bachelor and The Bobby Soxer, Colin and Zoë. Once Upon A Time, Colin was engaged to a Blonde Venus named Sylvia Scarlett. But she was his fiancée In Name Only. She was Born To Be Bad and She Done Him Wrong. She got up to some Monkey Business with Suzy, The Bishop's Wife, who everyone thought was above Suspicion. The Awful Truth was that they were running a Gambling Ship and stealing from people using the pseudonyms The Eagle and The Hawk. Colin warned them that the police were out To Catch a Thief but Sylvia and Suzy wanted That Touch of Mink and felt that The Grass Is Greener for the rich and famous.

Colin insisted that the Ladies Should Listen. He tried to dissuade them from their wicked ways and said they would be damned if they carried on but they just laughed and said "Merrily We Go To Hell". However, a Crisis occurred when Sylvia and Suzy were Indiscreet and murdered Mr. Lucky with some Arsenic and Old Lace, which they used to strangle him when the arsenic didn't work fast enough.

Of course, People Will Talk and they became Notorious - in fact, they were The Talk of The Town in Philadelphia where they lived. Sylvia and Suzy were arrested one night in the Gunga Din Indian restaurant. As they tried to escape, a policeman called out "Walk, Don't Run". Sylvia slowed down but Suzy ran and was shot as she made her getaway. Of course, the case went to court and Sylvia was the Woman Accused in what became known as the 'Sinners in The Sun' Case. Colin was called as a witness and he was caught between The Devil and The Deep blue sea - if he lied in court he would be going against his better nature, if he told the truth he would lose Sylvia. But, in this battle between The Pride and The Passion, his pride won the day. Sylvia was sent on a long Holiday to the state penitentiary.

Colin was devastated. Night and Day he paced the floor. He had no thoughts in his head, None But The Lonely Heart he had to bear. Eventually he decided to get as far away as possible and applied to join the Foreign Legion at The Last Outpost they held. His plane left at midnight one Hot Saturday. As a plane enthusiast, he was hoping to see the markings on the plane but he couldn't see the Wings In The Dark. The plane took off in a North By Northwest direction - Destination Tokyo. The plane was busy but it wasn't full - there was Room For One More. To cut a long story short, Colin thought he was going to have an Amazing Adventure, but it turned out to be a Charade and he returned home.

Despite his bad experience, Colin hadn't given up on love and was constantly fantasizing about his Dream Wife. One evening, at a fancy dress party, he became aware of a pair of Big Brown Eyes watching him. It was our Zoë, dressed as Alice In Wonderland. "This Is The Night", he said to himself. Since he had tickets for a concert on Friday evening he decided to go over and ask her to be His Girl, Friday.

After a few dates, Colin told Zoë the whole sorry Philadelphia Story. On hearing the tale Zoë said "Well, I'm No Angel, but I would never treat you like that". This was the start of An Affair To Remember - when they argued they were always quick to Kiss And Make Up.

Zoë felt that When You're In Love Every Girl Should Be Married. One night Colin stood under Zoë's window and, in a Penny Serenade, asked her to marry him. As a Wedding Present he bought her a Father Goose as they wanted to start a farm when they were married. They discussed where to live and decided that once Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House, they would live in his old one. Until then, they would live on a Houseboat.

Zoë decided to get her wedding dress from Madame Butterfly's Wedding Emporium. Enter Madame with a huge frothy dress covered in pearls. "My", said Zoë, "I would feel like a princess dressed in that - I would want to wear it for a month. I could be a Thirty Day Princess. The dress was so full that it had to have 25 petticoats to hold it out. On the wedding day, everyone had to help out in Operation Petticoat. Colin, in his kilt and his Topper, thought that Zoë looked like an angel. But since Only Angels Have Wings, he knew she must be human. They held their wedding in Manhattan and invited everyone, including the Howards of Virginia. Their wedding was talked about for weeks afterwards and they were the Toast Of New York. At the wedding reception Zoë asked Colin to uphold an old family tradition and kiss her feet. Colin replied "Well, darling, you are My Favorite Wife and all that but I really don't like feet, I wonder if someone else could Kiss Them For Me.

Nine months later they were Bringing Up Baby and they agreed that they should have taken more care Once Upon A Honeymoon. They lived happily ever after and Zoë encouraged Colin to join her Cary Grant mailing list. He did for a while and told people "I Was A Male Warbride".
