Phil and I spend the rest of the evening in each other's arms, our eyes transfixed on each other. It felt so good to be finally back together with him, I felt lighter and as if a switch had been pulled and the light had turned back on.
"Oh my flipping God." Is Louise's reaction as we walk back into the dimly lit barn and she spots Phil's arm wrapped around my waist and our grins were giving it away as well. "Is this? Are you?" She stutters out, putting down her drink to embrace us. "Yes." Phil says, looking down at me and grasping me ever so slightly. "I'm so delighted for you two! This is amazing, see I told you that you were meant to be together." She smugly tells me, giving me a huge hug.
"Guys! Does this mean?" Dan starts to ask us, walking over to us from the dance floor, looking very smart in a black suit. "Yep! They're back together!" Louise answers him, jumping up and down. Dan grins with a look of relief as he gives me a hug. "Actually guys, is it okay if Jess and I could have a minute?" Phil says, giving them a knowing look. "Of course, say no more. Louise and I will get some cake." And with that, Phil and I find ourselves alone again.
"So…" I start to say delicately brushes a loose strand of hair out of face. "So…" He repeats and I find that I am not able to take my eyes off his luscious lips. "Where do we go from here?" I ask the question which fills my mind. Well apart from Phil of course. "Let's get some drinks." He says "Then we can dance like crazy at fast songs. Once we have had enough we'll head back to my hotel where we can do whatever we want and I'll get to wake up next to you." We go and grab a few tequilas and for the rest of the night it was a blur.
I wake up at around 3am and I am so confused about how I got here and why I was lying next to Phil fast asleep next to me. I quickly run to the bathroom and vomit in the toilet. I rinse my mouth out with water and I grab a drink while I'm in there. Before leaving the bathroom I grab some gum from my bra (yeah I know it's a weird place to have gum) and shove it in my mouth so that my breath doesn't smell as if I've just vomited.
Once I am refreshed, I walk back into Phil's room and see that Phil is now also awake, sitting up, rubbing his eyes. "Hey you." He grins, seeing me in the doorway. "Hey." I reply, suddenly feeling self-conscious by the fact that I was only wearing Phil's shirt from the wedding, having no clue why I was wearing it. "Are you okay baby?" He asks, aware that I hadn't moved from the doorway.
