Phyllis awoke next to Billy, while he was still sleeping, and rubbed against his chest gently with the tips of her fingers, cackling as still as a mouse about their amazing night they had. Then, she nestled her head underneath his chin, placed her arm around him softly, and stared up at him, awaiting for his eyes to open up and give her that romantic glimpse like he always does.
Suddenly, just a few minutes had passed, and Billy opened his eyes and smiled right down at Phyllis with that genuine contentment. It'd been such a long time since he had experienced true happiness. With Victoria tossing him under the bus, his brother always searching for a reason to jump at him, and his mother protesting about the way he fixed up Katherine's mansion, he had felt so much pain and sorrow shoot through his veins and he was almost ready to end it all. But after Phyllis got sick of seeing him hurt so horribly, she couldn't bear to see him that way any longer. She realized that since she already had a close friendship with him, and her and Jack had been through hell, and it seemed like her and Jack struggling with their marriage was endless, that she may as well just be with Billy and have a love life with him. And she didn't regret it one bit, either. She loved every loving, romantic minute with Billy Abbott.
"Hey sexy," said Billy, kissing Phyllis' forehead as he held her snugly against his chest, cuddling with her.
"I was waiting for you to wake up, baby. Our night was incredible, and I don't feel bad about one, single thing we did together last night." Phyllis slid her palm through Billy's bed head, her fingers grabbing every small and dark strand, grinning right into his eyes while doing so.
"I really hope that you don't feel bad, babe, because you shouldn't. I promised you that when we became soul mates, I would be loyal and honest with you, and I would always be your shoulder to lean on and cry, and I would smell your 'damn perfume'. Remember when I reassured you about my clothes smelling like your perfume that day in the park? I told you I'd never forget that, Phyllis, and now look where we are - we are husband and wife like I knew we'd be one day. Victoria can rot in prison with her clone of a father, Victor, and Jack can cut us out of his life as long as he pleases, but it's not going to take away my love for you and that is a hell of a promise, I swear that on my grave and I wouldn't do that if I truly didn't mean it. I love you more than the Earth could ever imagine, Phyllis Abbott, and we are soul mates forever until the end."
Phyllis immediately became emotional, tears just streaming down her cheeks, but in an extremely joyful kind of way.
"Are those happy tears?" Billy asked her. Phyllis nodded her head yes and buried herself into his stomach.
"You don't even understand how shocked and happy I am now, baby. I never, EVER want you to abandon me, and I guess I know now that you never will. I love you just as much, Billy. I feel the exact way you do now!"
