2 hours later

Meanwhile in the pub everyone was getting anxious about how long they've been so they decided to go over to number 5 to see what had been going much to their obligation that Lauren and Joey had just bedded each other.

At number 5 Lauren and Joey were very much comfortable where they were Lauren was enclosed in Joeys arms snuggling onto his chest whilst he offered protection to her.

"Joey?"

"Mmm"

"I love this me and you it's what I've been waiting for my whole life our connection is so special and unbreakable I love you Joey with all my heart"

"I know Lauren me too, like I said before your it for me, your what makes me complete, your what makes my world go round"

"So where does this leave us now?"

"It's up to you I don't want to pressurise you into anything"

"Well I know one thing for certain"

"Yeah? What's that then?"

"That I want to wake up like this everyday and I ain't losing you ever so I'm going to leave him, leave Peter"

"Really you'd do that"

"Course"

"I love you Lauren Branning your a remarkable woman"

Max, Peter, Abi, Jay and Alice were gathered on the steps to number 5 waking for Max to open the door so they could go in and see what was taking so long.

"We should probably get up now babe they might come and look for us after all we've been nearly 2 and a half hours"

"Ahhh can't we stay a bit longer I love this she begged"

"Ahah now that you put it like that course I'd do anything for you, you know that right?

Max opened the door and it seemed really quite downstairs so he decided to head upstairs with the others in tow were he heard giggling coming form Lauren's old room and pushed open the door slightly and smiled at what he saw his daughter snuggled up to the love of her life.

"Joey?" Alice said with a hint of humour in her voice just then everyone flooded the room to where Joey and Lauren were currently sleeping after all they were tired. Joeys eyes began to flicker and he started to make out 5 silhouettes of people 4 of which smiling happily the other one not so happy

Oh no he thought...

He nudged Lauren with his leg so she began to stir and also could see 5 other figures she looked at Joey and they both laughed

"We can explain," they both said simultaneously
