Chapter 24- Birthday Surprises

A week later, Sam woke up to someone kissing her on the neck. She opened her eyes and noticed it was Phil. 'Happy birthday gorgeous,' Phil said as he looked up at Sam.

'Thank you,' Sam replied. 'Where's my present then?'

Phil reached into the cabinet beside his bed and pulled out a carefully wrapped parcel. He handed it to Sam. 'Happy birthday Sam,' he said.

Sam carefully unwrapped the parcel and a small square box fell into her lap. She picked up the box and opened it. Inside was a heart necklace and bracelet set, both were encrusted in diamonds. 'Thank you, Phil,' Sam said as she kissed him on the lips. 'It's beautiful; it must have cost you a fortune.'

'You are worth every single penny, and more babe, I love you Sam,'

'I love you too Phil,' Sam replied and she leant across and kissed Phil passionately on the lips.

'I'm going to go and get you breakfast in bed,' Phil said.

'Oooh, I am getting spoilt today aren't they?' Sam replied.

'Course you are,' Phil said and he left the bedroom, passing Francesca on the way downstairs.

'Happy birthday sis,' Francesca said as she went to hug her sister. 'There you go.'

Francesca passed Sam her present and watched as she opened it. 'Are you trying to tell me something?' Sam asked as she held up the bottle of bubble bath.

'No of course not. I just thought that with the baby coming along, I thought that you'd need something to help you relax,'

'Thanks for that sis,' Sam replied and hugged her sister.

'Listen I've just got to go and do something,' Francesca said as she left Sam's bedroom and went downstairs.

'How's the breakfast coming on Phil?' Francesca asked as she entered the kitchen.

'Great, thanks. Listen Francesca, is everything OK for tonight?' Phil replied.

'Yeah its OK, all you've got to do is get Sam to the bar,' Francesca said. 'I've done all the invites don't worry, it'll be fine Phil.'

'Cheers Francesca, I really appreciate all you've done,'

'No worries, Phil, you're part of the family now and families help each other out…occasionally,'

'Right I'd better get this upstairs to your sister,' Phil said as he left the kitchen.

He went back upstairs and into his and Sam's bedroom. 'Oooh, breakfast in bed!' Sam smiled.

Phil passed the tray to Sam and got back into beside her and began picking at the contents.

Later that evening, Sam was sat downstairs in a red halter-neck dress, waiting for Phil to come down. 'Phil!' Sam called. 'We'll be late.'

'OK!' Phil called as he came down the stairs and entered the living room.

'Wow, you look gorgeous,' he said and kissed Sam softly on the lips.

'Where are we going?' Sam asked.

'Ahhh, you'll just have to wait and see,' Phil smiled.

Phil and Sam pulled up outside the Express Bar on the High Street. 'Come on Phil, what are we doing here?' Sam asked.

'You'll see,' Phil said as he led Sam towards the door.

They opened the door and noticed that the lights were off and Phil fumbled around trying to find the switch. He turned the light on and Sam was confronted by everyone from Sun Hill waiting for her. 'Happy Birthday!' they all shouted.

'You organised this?' Sam asked Phil.

'Yep, it was me, but I can't take all the credit,' Phil replied. 'This is partly down to Francesca as well.'

Francesca walked over and hugged Sam. 'I helped organise this as well, sis,' she said.

'Thank you,' Sam replied. 'This is great.'

Francesca walked up to the bar where Dan was sitting. 'This was all your doing?' he asked.

'Not all, Phil helped as well,' Francesca

Dan leant across and kissed Francesca on the lips. The DJ started playing some slow songs. Dan took Francesca's hand and led her over to the dance-floor. He took her in his arms and they kissed once more.

Sam was sat at the bar with Gina and Phil. Sam was watching Francesca and Dan dancing. She had only just begun to understand what Francesca saw in Dan. She felt the same way everytime she looked at Phil, they loved each other. Love would see them right no matter what.

Phil took Sam's hand and led her over to the dance-floor. 'I think this is our song,' Phil whispered.

Phil put his arms around Sam's waist and she lifted her arms up and wrapped them around his neck. He cuddled up to her as the song began to play.

(When I first saw you, I saw love.
And the first time you touched me, I felt love.
And after
all this time, you're still the one I love.)
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

(You're Still The One- Shania Twain)

This had been their song almost since the beginning of their relationship. In a way, this song was a representation of their relationship. Sam looked up at Phil and smiled. That was why this had become our song, Sam thought. Everytime she had a problem, she'd always run to Phil to find comfort. It might have taken years for them to get it together but in the end, they did. People said that Phil would just use Sam and break her heart. If anything, he'd proved that he was able to be faithful to one woman, especially one like Sam. She moved closer towards Phil and hugged each other, too engrossed in their love for each other to let anyone else in.
