Chapter 23:

Back at 's house they had just walked through the door when 's mobile started to ring, fumbling in her bag she eventually found it and pressed the green button
"Yes Hello!" she cheerily answered, made his way into the lounge as he didnt want to look like he was listening in on her conversation but the hallway was large and her voice echoed so he couldnt help but listen
"Hi , yes I'm great thanks, How are you?" she made some noises in response
"Wow that would be fantastic, yes, speak to you in the morning. Thanks so much!" she hung up Joining in the lounge she couldnt wait to tell him the news she had just heard and jumped next to him on the sofa
"Great news baby! That was from Take That! They have another contract for me starting in 2 weeks! Im so excited!" she clapped her hands excitedly
"Thats great" didnt hide the dissapointment in his voice and watched as 's face fell "Whats wrong?" she put her hand on his
"Im so pleased for you, really I am, but that's when we start interviews and promoting the album all over Europe and I kinda hoped you would come with me" he stroked her hand
"Hey, has already thought about that and he's chosen me to work whilst they have their interview in Paris, the same time as you guys are there!" saw how suddenly smiled again and she hugged him tight
"I will do anything to stay by your side " she assured him and kissed his soft lips

The next few weeks and spent quality time together, enjoying walks through the countryside and quiet nights in the local pub or at home in front of the fire. knew how important the band's time off meant to the guys and she did everything possible to make it as relaxing and chilled out for , as long as she was with him she didnt care what they did!
Packing her bag suddenly felt the tears well up at the thought of leaving behind, it would only be for a week but she had got used to waking up next to him every morning and having breakfast together. The sounds of the shower being turned off made wipe her face quickly, she didnt want to upset also. Feeling his arms slide around her waist from behind she turned around in his arms and held him tight
"Hey, are you alright?" he held her at arms length and studied her face carefully, she couldnt hold the tears that were stinging her eyes and they slowly slid down her cheek
Taking her hand he guided her to the bed and they sat down, wrapping his arms around her he wiped her cheek with his soft hand
"Come on baby, dont cry. It wont be long until I join you in Paris" he kissed her tear stained cheek "I know Im being silly, Im sorry " she sniffed and looked into his beautiful eyes "I will miss you too" he whispered, hugging her
The sound of 's mobile broke their moment, the prank call indicated that the taxi was outside and suddenly rushed to get changed after his shower. Walking up the driveway in silence swallowed the lump in her throat and held like she would never let go. Kissing him passionately she promised to call him once she had landed in Paris
Back in the house sighed heavily, listening to the silence he flopped down onto the sofa and ran his hand through his hair, he loved so much and wondered how he would get by a full week without seeing her. Since the day of's phone call he also had a niggling feeling of jealousy at the thought of his beautiful girl spending time with the four members of Take That, to take his mind off this decided to head upstairs to pack his bag and take a long bath, he would then await 's phone call before having an early night ready for meeting the lads at the airport tomorrow morning
Dragging her case into the large hotel room felt exhausted from the travelling, it was late and she wondered if would actually be asleep by now. She quickly texted to let him know she had arrived then pressed number, desperate to hear his soft voice she lay back on the bed and waited
"Hello baby" his soft voice sounded tired
"Hey, hope I didnt wake you" smiled at the effect his sexy voice had on her
"I must have nodded off for a minute there but I will sleep better now Ive spoken to you. Im missing you already" he said the last part in almost a whisper
"Im missing you too" felt the tears sting her eyes again
"How is your hotel room? Are they looking after you?" sat up from the slumped position he had found himself in on the sofa
"Yes its fine, they will look after me baby, dont worry"
They chatted for a little while before felt her eyes closing
"Im going to bed now , the flight has worn me out" she yawned and slid under the covers "Ok baby, you get some sleep and I will call you tomorrow when we have landed safe. I love you" "Love you too, goodnight" closed her eyes and imagined him at home, laid in bed looking irresistible
"Goodnight" ended the call, sighed heavily and stood up from the couch. He knew he wouldnt get much sleep tonight without her but made his way up to bed anyway

Chapter 24:

Next morning over laid and rushed around her hotel room pulling on clothes and brushing her hair at the same time, she was due to meet the lads from Take That in ten minutes and would have to skip breakfast
Checking her phone she quickly read the text as she was heading out of the room, it was from telling her they were just about to board the plane. She didnt have time to reply as she was soon jumping into a taxi and heading to a studio
She finally found the correct meeting room and stopped to catch her breath, she had ran round the place a few times due to getting lost and was now more than twenty minutes late! Entering the room she saw all the faces turn to stare, her cheeks suddenly felt hot and she apologised for being late, feeling relief when stood up laughing she walked towards his open arms
"! Dont worry about it, come here" he grabbed her into a hug
"Im sorry" she whispered in his ear before pulling away
"Everyone meet the best stylist around, " turned to the room and introduced her
waved at everyone then took a seat next to , the other lads waved and blew her a kiss The morning was spent in a long discussion about the preparation for the big interview that was upcoming and also of the styles that the guys wanted for their photo shoot, this is where came in. She pulled out her portfolio that included a lot of the Westlife work she had done, passing it around the table she watched as everyone studied the drawings, smiling and giving positive comments. Catching 's eye he winked encouragingly at her
"Obviously we dont want to look like Westlife, that is why has flown out here early, she will do the That That designs from scratch" said to the room and nodded her head to everyone in agreement
Once the meeting was over walked out with the lads, placing his arm around her shoulder squeezed her softly "Its great to have you back ! You did well in there and I could tell everyone was impressed with your work" she smiled up at him
"Thanks for having me here with you, Im going to make you all look fabulous!" she placed one arm around 's waist and headed out of the building, they were all now going for lunch in the nearest restaurant
Sitting down with her drink heard her phone ringing, she knew it would be and rushed to answer it
"Hiya " she slid herself up the couch to make room for the four guys who were heading her way with a selection of food and drinks
"Hey gorgeous, how ye doing?" his voice still sounded tired and drained
"Im fine, are you ok baby?" noticed he didnt sound himself, looking up she saw heading to the table with a tray full of drinks and as if in slow motion she saw him trip over the leg of a chair
"Im just tired from the flight and missing you" sighed at the other end of the line
The drinks fell onto 's lap who was now sat next to her
listened as he heard the commotion and was curious as to what was happening "You still there ?"
Barely able to answer him for laughing so hard, held the phone and tried to control herself "Im sorry, has just dropped a full tray of drinks onto ’s lap!" she continued to laugh "Listen I will leave you to it, speak to you later yeah? Love you" wasnt in the mood for their antics and hung up. He threw his phone onto the table in front of him and looked up just as was about to join him
"Oooooo whats with the mood?" joked, placing his drink on the table and sitting down "Fecking , messing around with Frigging " he looked at who was sat smiling at him
"And what is so funny ?" was getting more frustrated
"Look at you, the green eyed monster"
"You wouldnt like it if was doing that right now" folded his arms and scowled at
"No I wouldnt but at the end of the day it's just her job and she loves you, What more do you want?" sat back and raised his eyebrows at
"I love her more than anything , I just dont want to loose her" 's face softened and his eyes pleaded with his friend for advice
"Look, , How do you think she feels with girls throwing themselves at you all the time?? She has loved you since the moment she met you. I reckon she even used me to get to you " winked at his friend and watched as finally laughed
"Ye you're right , Im just being an arse" Picking up his phone he texted to say he would call her tonight when she was less busy

Chapter 25:

was tired when she returned to her hotel room that night, after a long evening of gathering ideas, colour scheme's and designs from the lads she was now ready to start her job properly. It was still playing on her mind why suddenly ended their call earlier that day and as she was about to call him her phone burst to life. Seeing his name flashing she couldnt help but smile at the butterflies that flew around in her tummy, they spoke for an hour and updated on what they had been doing all day. He sounded back to normal now and didnt mentioned the phone call from earlier
Over the next few days worked so hard on her designs and ideas for Take That, ready for their approaching interview, she didnt have time to reply to every text sent her throughout the day but they always talked for an hour before they went to bed. She was glad to be so busy as the days were passing faster than she thought and she knew she would be seeing in a few days time, it was the morning of the Take That interview and she was well prepared. Meeting the guys back stage at the TV show she dressed and styled them to perfection and sat back to watch them in action, after a successful interview sat with them in the bar afterwards and received lots of praise from each of the guys. They invited her to the party they would be holding before leaving Paris and accepted, laid on her bed back at the hotel that night she decided to use her day off tomorrow to pamper herself before arrived, closing her eyes she pictured his face and felt her body ache for him. Even though she had enjoyed the week working alongside Take That she had missed him like crazy and knew she had to be with him for the rest of the time that Westlife spent on the road, it would drive her insane without him!
They had their usual phone call before bed time and decided on an early night, 's flight was due in at lunch time tomorrow so she planned on getting up early to have her hair done and buy a new dress for the Take That party. Strolling through the shops early the next morning it didnt take long for a dress to catch her eye and she knew would also like it as she looked in the changing rooms mirror and decided she would buy it, next it was time for her long hair to be styled and she headed off to the hairdresser that wasnt too far away from the hotel
Feeling great smiled to herself as she made her way back to the hotel, within an hour would be with her and she decided to have a drink and wait in the lounge area for him. Reading through a magazine she relaxed into the comfortable sofa and enjoyed the quiet of the hotel, a soft voice made her look up
"Hi, what are you doing on your own?"
Looking up at she beamed a smile and couldn’t hide her excitement
"Hiya, Im just waiting for , he should be here soon. I cant wait to see him!"
"Ahhh he's a lucky guy. I was going to invite you out for dinner but I wont spoil your plans, Enjoy yourselves!" winked at her before turning away but just before he left he turned back
"Oh.. by the way you look beautiful. Are you still coming to the party tonight?"
nodded and blushed "Thank you, yes I just need to run it by Shane but Im sure we will be there" Claire watched him smile back at her before dissapearing out of the main entrance
She turned back to the page her finger had kept a hold of and continued to read.
Being so engrossed in the story she was reading, didnt see enter the hotel. He spotted her straight away and stood for a while watching her with a sexy smile upon his lips, she was concentrating on the magazine in front of her and a strand of hair fell in front of her face
Pushing her hair behind her ear heard someone cough lightly
Excuse me miss, could you tell me how you manage to make reading a magazine look so god damn sexy!" his husky voice whispered
Jumping up from the sofa laughed at his comment and flung her arms around him, he spun her round and kissed her long and hard on the lips. Still embraced rested his forehead on 's and breathed in her scent "Ive missed you so much" his voice sounded croaky and when he opened his eyes saw his eyes shining
", are you crying?" she cupped his face and kissed him softly
"Ive just missed you so much" he repeated again in a whisper
"I have you too, more than you realise" she smiled and captured his lips once more
"Come on, lets head up to my room" took his hand and they headed to the lift.inside her room couldnt keep her hands off and they soon fell into the bedroom laughing, sitting on top of him she looked down at the gorgeous man and felt like she was the luckiest girl alive!
"You really have missed me havent you!!" playfully tickled and laughed as she fell sideways next to him and wiggled around squealing for him to stop tickling her!
soon covered her body with his and the tickling turned into his hands roaming her curves, their kiss soon deepened and they spent the rest of the afternoon proving how much they had missed each other

Chapter 26:

Laying with her arm around him, sighed happily and played with his curly chest hair ", we've been invited to a party tonight. Take That are saying goodbye to Paris and we are invited"
"Awww I thought we could just stay here in bed all night?!" his voice sounded playful and cheeky "But , baby, Ive bought a new dress and everything" pouted and looked up at him "Hmmmm ........... but only if you will scrub my back ready for the party!" he winked at her as he got out of bed, taking her hand in his and guiding her towards the bathroom
"Its a deal!" giggled and followed him
Once dressed looked in the full length mirror and was happy with her appearance, glancing at she was also happy at what she saw! Dressed in a casual suit he looked stunning and she now wished they were staying in the hotel instead of going out tonight!
"You look absolutely stunning" 's eyes wandered over 's new dress, clinging to her curves he couldnt wait to show off his girl tonight. He also wanted to meet the lads from Take That, maybe the jealous monster had mentioned may be put at ease once he had
The party venue wasn’t far from the hotel and the taxi journey was short, placing his hand on her lower back felt the familiar tingles and smiled at him as they entered the large house that had been hired by Take That for the night. soon spotted and took 's hand, heading his way she wanted to introduce them, saw the couple and walked towards with open arms "Wow, Ive never seen someone look so beautiful!"he hugged her then held her at arms length looking her up and down
blushed again and turned to " meet , meet "
Giving him a firm hand shake nodded and smiled
"You are one lucky guy ! She's also done a brilliant job while she has worked with us" complimented and winked at her
They made small talk and it was obvious to that this guy was already drunk and he realised he had some catching up to do drinking wise! They had already turned up to the party late due to their bedroom antics and looking around it seemed they may be the only sober couple in the room! excused himself to meet the other guests leaving and to help themselves to the drinks table, knocking back a cocktail felt much better but noticed looking at him wide eyed while she sipped her drink
"Steady babes! I dont want to be carrying you back to the hotel!" she giggled and watched as he gulped another
didnt quite know what he was drinking but the multi coloured liquid went down well. As the party got into full swing found herself being in popular demand as various people wanted to talk to her about the work she had done with Take That and other bands previous, she tried her best to include but he seemed a little distant and just stood nodding his head with a fake smile on his face
Excusing himself to go the mens room he passed the drinks table and once again drank a bright blue liquid down in one go. Looking at himself in the mirror he realised how drunk he actually was since his reflection was blurred, splashing some cold water on his face he ran a hand through his hair and thought back to the party. He had hardly spoken to since they had arrived and everyone seemed to want a piece of her, especially that bloke. He’d been keeping an eye on him all night and had spotted him looking over every now and again.
Making his way back through the crowd he saw a few empty seats and decided to rest his wobbly legs, a waiter passed him with a tray and he took a glass of champagne. Staring at the glass in front of him he tried to focus on it the best he could without having blurred vision, looking up to see if he could see he eventually saw her through the crowd of people on the dance floor with ’s arms wrapped around her. Every now and again he would whisper in her ear and he watched as she threw her head back and laughed, his hands were also wandered a little too much for 's liking, standing up he made his way over
was enjoying her time with but was just about to end the dance to find when she felt a hand on her back, turning around she saw a drunken swaying a little on his feet
He leaned forward and shouted over the music "Baby, Im ready to leave"
decided to get him back to the hotel, she quickly kissed on the cheek and explained that they were leaving, he shouted goodbye to but he had already turned around and was heading away from the dance floor. had heard him shout but decided to ignore him and concentrate on getting outside into the fresh air, quickly ran to his side and took his hand. She chuckled to herself at how drunk was and guided him outside to the front of the house where various cars were already waiting for any guests that decided to leave to party
Slumping into the back seat he sat in silence as told the driver where to go
"Are you ok babes?" she smiled and stroked his cheek
"Im fine" his voice was sharp and 's smile slowly faded
"Whats wrong?" this time placed her hand on his leg
"Nothing" was the only answer she got from him
The journey back to the hotel was made in complete silence and was frantically searching her mind for a reason as to why was being so cold towards her. She didnt want to cause a scene in the taxi or hotel lobby so decided to bring the subject up once they had stepped into the lift "Are you going to tell me what I have done wrong?" her voice was strong and she took hold of his arm
Propping himself against the lift wall looked at her with furrowed brows
"You've ignored me all night , Ive been sat like a fecking looser on my own getting pissed" he shoved his hands into his pockets and stared hard at waiting for an answer
", you of all people should know what it's like when everyone wants to talk to you about work, Im sorry, I couldnt just ignore people!" defended herself but 's voice piped up a little louder than before
"And another thing ..... you had your hands all over that bloke all night!" looked at him shocked and was lost for words, she had never seen like this before and she didnt get a chance to answer him either as he carried on the rant
"What was it?? Did you think to yourself that you've already had two of Westlife so you thought you would go for a few members of Take That too?"
felt his words stab at her chest like a knife. Tears suddenly appeared in her eyes and she couldnt hold them back.
His eyes suddenly left hers and he stared at the floor. A few seconds of silence filled the lift and the doors then opened onto their floor
"Im sorry, I shouldnt have said that" 's voice was now soft and his eyes flicked up to look at
Looking into his eyes didnt feel the normal butterflies fly around in her stomach, she now felt physically sick from the words that had just left his mouth
"I love you more than anything but you obviously think this is just a big game" she quickly wiped the tears that were now streaming down her face
"Im sorry, dont cry baby" 's heart was now breaking at how he had just reacted in his drunken and jealous rage. He stepped forwards to wipe her cheeks but she slapped his hand away
"Dont you dare touch me!" stomped past him and to her hotel room, she didnt want to be anywhere near him. Opening her door she looked behind her and through bleary eyes she saw him still stood in the lift
"You'd better find some where else to stay" swiping her card quickly she didnt look back but entered her room and slammed the door closed
Sliding down the door she let her tears fall freely and sat on the floor for a while sobbing, How could he say those things to her? Why had he dragged up the past about ?
Climbing into bed turned off her mobile and cried herself to sleep

Chapter 27:

Wandering down the dark street was cursing to himself, why had those word left his mouth? Was it really an issue about and or was it just the drink talking?
Either way he knew he had been a complete idiot and he was now preparing himself for the huge lecture he knew was about to come. The porter on the hotel door looked suprised to see , especially in the state he was in. Nodding to him didn’t want to explain why he was there and quickly entered the hotel, tapping on the door he waited but there was no response. He knocked harder this time and the door was suddenly pulled open and a sleepy and frustrated looking glared back at him
"What the feck are ye doing?" he looked at from head to toe and shook his head. Stepping aside he watched as entered the room and without saying a word he flopped down in the arm chair
"Im such an idiot " holding his head in his hands sighed heavily
"Whats happened? Is ok?" was suddenly worried
"She's back at her hotel, I've made such a mess of things and said something horrible" watched as sat back in the chair and ran his hand through his hair
Taking two bottles of water from the mini bar, sat opposite and waited for him to explain everything
"You said what??!!" couldn’t believe his ears after had finished talking
"I know, I know" was feeling emotional now and wasn’t sure how he would get out of this mess
"Why the hell are you dragging up the past ? I told you from the beginning it would only be an issue if you allowed it be, now look what's happened!"
was now pacing the floor in front of
"Plus, knows nothing about and me, that is the way I would like it to stay. For fecks sake man, it was years ago, a drunken mistake for us both but luckily we have made a brilliant friendship from it. Plus she had a thing for you from the very start, it was pretty obvious!" slumped back down in the chair and sat looking at the broken man in front of him
"Do you think she will forgive me?" looked at with pleading eyes for some encouragement
"I don’t think she will let you off with this easily mate. You're going to have to work really hard at this shit you are in" standing up went to the wardrobe and pulled out the spare pillows and blankets
"Get some sleep mate, we will sort it tomorrow. I will help you, I promise" patted on the back and left him the blankets on the sofa
Sat in the dark felt a few tears fall down his cheeks, he would do anything to prove to how much he loved her and tomorrow would be the start of a new day

Waking up early the next morning was quick to pack her bag and check out of the hotel, she made her way to a small cafe and sat with a drink. Her head ached from all the crying and she had applied lots of make up to cover her red and puffy eyes this morning. Turning on her mobile she had a few missed calls from , the time showed he had tried to call her in the early hours, tears stung again as she looked at his name but she was determined not to cry. Her flight was booked and in a few hours she would be home and back in her apartment, she decided to text as she had organised to meet him for lunch but really didn’t want to face him with how emotional she was feeling
After sending a very long text thanking him and explaining why she had left early she gathered her bags and went out to the taxi that was waiting for her.
On the flight home she thought long and hard about how to deal with the situation she now found herself in, would she forgive him? If her drunken night with was to raise its ugly head every time they had an argument then was it worth carrying on with ?
But she loved him more than anything and trying to imagine her life without him was just too painful to even consider. She decided she would spend a little time to herself once back home, relaxing and trying to clear her head so she could decide what to do.
It was late the next morning when felt someone shaking his shoulder, opening one eye he looked to see stood over him
"Mate, come on, get up. Lets tidy this mess and decide what we're going to do about " looked around at the empty bottles around him, after had gone to bed he had raided the mini bar and drank everything in there, sitting up he held his head and instantly regretted doing so. His phone was laid on the floor where he had thrown it after not being able to contact , picking it up and shoving it into his pocket he stood up and stretched.
After taking a shower the two men headed down for breakfast, a strong coffee was needed for and made sure he had a lot of sugar in it too. Placing the cup in front of his friend he sat across from him and looked at 's tired face and smiled softly at him
"Right, the plan of action for today is we head into town and buy something special for , then we will head over to her hotel and you will declare you're love for her and apologise as if your life depends on it" nooded his head at with a stern look on his face, he had called that morning for some advice, explaining to her that the strain of and 's job had caused them to argue and she had given the idea about buying a gift
"My life does depend on it, I will literally die without her" stirred his coffee and looked into it
"Stop feeling sorry for yourself ! Drink up and lets go, come on!" stood up and waited. Gulping his coffee down in one go felt sick but stood up to join his friend, ready for the shopping trip
After browsing a few jewellery stores finally saw a ring that caught his eye, he wasn’t sure of what size to choose and inside the shop he wasn’t making things easy for the shop assistant either. She had asked many questions about to try and guess a size for her but didn’t have a clue!
"Here, let me hold your hand" said to the young girl as he looked down at her hands. Giggling the girl held out her hand and felt 's soft hand tightly hold hers "I think you have similar sized hands to " nodded and felt proud of his idea! was sniggering at 's stupidity and the fact that the shop assistant was now blushing from head to toe
"I will take it" handed her his card and waited for her to return
"Good choice" had to admit that had managed to pick the most gorgeous ring in the shop, he was sure this would win back for him
Walking outside shoved his hands in his pocket and turned to his friend
"Speaking of rings, I’ve got a special one ready for when I get home"
glanced sideways at him and raised his eyebrows
"Im going to ask to marry me"
stopped walking and smiled "That’s great news ! I’m so happy for ye!"
For the first time that morning felt genuinely happy and pulled in for a quick manly hug!
Entering the hotel knew the way to 's room and left sat at the bar. After giving the thumbs up left his friend to it and ordered a drink, spinning around on the bar stool he noticed another man sat in the corner reading a newspaper, he recognised him straight away as from Take That and he wondered if he should introduce himself. Stepping down from the stool made his way over but before he had chance to say anything he heard shout him from the lobby
", she's not in her room" was breathless from rushing around the hotel and he didn’t notice who was now sat staring at them both, his paper now resting on his lap "She's left and gone home"
and both turned at the same time to look at him, "When did she go?" asked while pulling his phone out of his pocket
"First thing this morning, she didn’t want to hang around after ......... you know" nodded his head at , he wasn’t too happy with him for upsetting the way he had but was already heading out of the door with his phone pressed to his ear, waiting for to answer "Thanks for your help" smiled quickly at before turning and jogging after

Chapter 28:

's phone echoed through her apartment, she knew exactly who it would be and decided to ignore it. She knew that hearing his voice would only make her cry again and at the minute she was feeling much better than she did this morning, running a bath she had her night planned in front of the TV with a tub of ice cream!
She quickly dried her hair and dragged her duvet from her bed and into the lounge, once she was comfortable on the sofa she dimmed the lights and settled down ready for the film. It had only just started when she heard her doorbell ring, for a minute it crossed her mind to ignore it but after the third time of it ringing she got up and went to answer it
"Hey, Ive been trying to ring you!"
stood open mouthed at who was stood on her door step
"What are you doing here? I thought you was in Ireland?" asked surprised
"Im working here at the minute and thought I would drop by to see how you are"
motioned for her to come in and she got them both a glass of wine. joined under her duvet and they both sat sipping their drink
"So, what has happened between you and ? I've had them both on the phone today, was frantic because you had left" took another drink and waited. There was a long silence before answered, how would she explain this?? She didn’t even know if knew about what happened between her and and she couldn’t exactly tell her ’s exact words! "We had a big fight after the Take That party and he said some things to me that really hurt" staring into her glass felt the tears prick at her eyes again
"He was drunk though , I'm sure he didn’t mean what he said. Was it really that bad?"
had seen hold back her tears and placed a comforting hand on her arm
Simply nodding couldn’t think of anything else to say and she jumped slightly at the door bell sounding again
"Who could that be at this time?" whispered looking at who smiled back her
"Take one guess , I’m sure they have had enough time to jump on the earliest flight" placing her glass on the table got up and went to answer the door
"No wait let me think about this" jumped out from under the duvet but had already opened the door and both and rushed in
embraced and kissed her, whispering in her ear he winked at before taking his girlfriend's hand and leaving the apartment. Stood alone glanced at , his hands were shoved in his pockets and he was looking down at his shoes
"Did you come here to say something?" tried to remain strong and confident as she spoke but as she saw him look up and into her eyes her heart melted. His face looked tired and he obviously hadn't shaved in a few days
"Sit down please baby" he spoke softly and followed her to the sofa
Pulling her legs up underneath her she sat facing him and waited for him to speak
" I'm so sorry. I never meant what I said, I was drunk and jealous. I've never felt like this before and I was only jealous because I love you more than anything. I hope you realise that" he fiddled nervously with the edge of the duvet as he spoke
"You hurt me bad , if you think I'm just playing a game then you are so wrong because I love you too" felt a tear fall down her cheek
"No I don’t think that, I loved you from the first day we met and I don’t ever want to loose you" his voice croaked a little and he reached forward for her hand, she didn’t pull away and he held it softly "I’m sorry" he whispered, pulling her hand up and kissing it
couldn’t feel angry with him any longer and she leaned forward to hug him, she felt him pull her forwards and hold her tight. Burying his face in her neck cried soft tears as she felt total relief from being in his arms again, pulling away wiped the tears from her cheeks. "I've bought you a present to prove how sorry I am and how much I love you"
He reached down to his coat pocket and pulled out the small box, handing it to he waited while she opened it
Seeing the beautiful diamond ring dazzling in the dim lights cried again "Its beautiful" she whispered through her tears. Placing it on her finger she smiled at the perfect fit and hugged again
Sighing with relief that the ring was her perfect size smiled to himself, he felt like his heart would explode with love at this moment in time and he cupped 's face, kissing her long and hard.
Settling down on the sofa wrapped his arms around her as she laid on his chest, after a tiring and emotional few days he suddenly felt how exhausted he was
"Will you stay here with me tonight?" asked as the credits at the end of the film appeared on the TV screen
"Of course I will" he whispered as he kissed her softly and smiled down at her
