This is shorter than I remember it being however future chapters are beginning to get longer in wait of the wedding :)
Morning broke and Connie groaned as the sunlight hurt her eyes. She tightly closed them as she moved a hand to rest against her forehead. "Morning gorgeous-" "I'm gonna be sick."
Connie sat up from the bed and dashed off in the direction of the bathroom as Cal stopped himself from smiling and moved to get her a glass of water. He leant against the door frame of the bathroom and looked down at her before passing the glass of water over to her.
"You need to stop enjoying seeing me in so much pain-" "I don't enjoy it, just make the most of it while it's there." He knelt down beside her as she let her head rest on her arm. She closed her eyes while resting her head before feeling Cal's warm hand move up and down her back comforting her. "You know this is self-inflicted right, and you have 0 sympathy from me right now…"
Cal laughed as he noticed the small smile on her face before she sat up and moved back into the bedroom. "It doesn't help that I seem to ache all over. Places I never even knew could hurt, hurt and I'm a doctor, I should know these things… What did I do-" "Well we-" "I think I can remember that Caleb." He smirked "I'm glad you can, I must admit it'll be one I remember for a while."
Connie rolled her eyes before slumping down onto the bed. "What time are you going home?" Cal walked back in and sat beside her. "I'm not sure really, everyone's gone to have breakfast already and then I think you girls are off out for the day." He was met with another moan as Connie dropped her head to the pillow at the thought of having to go out.
"Did you say everyone's already gone for breakfast-" "Yeah I didn't think you'd want anything." Connie sat up and pulled on her dress from the evening before. "I need to head back and get changed, meet me in 10 minutes?" Cal nodded frowning "Can I ask why-" "You really think I would pass up on food? I might be hung over but I am also starving, as are you."
Connie had decided to have a quick shower before pulling on a pair of skinny jeans and white blouse. She'd warn Cal's jumper over here and slipped that back on over the top before tying up her hair. She grabbed her phone and room keys before closing the door and meeting Cal to walk over for something to eat.
"There you are, we wandered where you got to last night!" Connie rolled her eyes smiling as she walked into the small café hand in hand with Cal. "What can I say some people are just better company-" "Too much information thanks Connie."
Zoe sat beside a very unstable Max who was resting his head on the table. Iain was also in a similar kind of position beside Rita who spent most of the time laughing at him. Tess was talking to her and smiled as Connie took a seat beside them.
Both Jess and Rhiannon were wearing sunglasses with their heads in their hands. Connie bit her lip to stop the smile spreading across her face as she looked at her cousin and maid of honour. "Ugh, I feel like I drank half the bar last night-" "Half, try most of it." Rhiannon's head lifted to glare across at Cal who rose his hands in surrender at her.
"Morning cuz feeling slightly under the weather today are we?" Cal opened his mouth to speak as Connie glared across him almost daring him to say something.
Everyone had small conversations around the table and moved about until the girls were all sitting down one end deciding on the plan for the day. Cal still had his arm around Connie's shoulders and she leant into his chest as she listened to Zoe speaking.
Zoe turned to Connie and smiled. "Sooo, I talked to Iain and we've arranged to combine the rest of the stag do with our hen party…" She noticed the smile on both their faces before finishing. "We've got two activities today before going out again tonight. Tomorrow morning we've got a few hours free before having lunch together at a restaurant in town and then the girls are hitting the town on their own for a night."
It turned out that Connie and the others were staying on for an extra night as Zoe had planned a relaxing spa day for the Monday so that they could all relax before the wedding day.
"Do I dare to ask what we've got planned today?" Connie screwed her face up worried for what Zoe had gone and done. "Well we needed to compromise, so we're going with my original plan first and then the guys plan…" Connie was sitting up properly with a perfectly arched eyebrow looking towards Zoe. "What have you done Zoe?"
"Well I hope those two are feeling better soon otherwise this is going to be a long day…"
