"Morning El, is Wills not coming to breakfast?" Amy asked as she and Trish met Elly outside of their villas. "Shes sleeping in" Elly replied as Brooke and Brit joined them. "To be honest, i think she needs it" she added as Brooke asked "Whats happened?" "I found Wills this morning, sleepwalking. She was talking too" Elly said as Amy sighed. "Shes never sleepwalked at my place, nor at Matts when they were together. What was she talking about?" Amy asked as Elly replied "Im not sure, it was more mumbling. But she did mention Victor and Matt at one point. She cut herself whilst asleep. I had to throw water on her to wake her up" "What the hell is going on with her? Somethings not been right with her for a while" Trish asked as the women sat down to eat. "I dont know Trish, i wish i did" Elly said as they browsed the menu, as Elly continued "I might try and speak to Matt when we get back. I know theyve been spending a lot of time together lately and he'd know if she was acting weird" "Is that a good idea? Given their history..." Brit suggested as Amy replied "If anyone knows whats going on with her, it'll be Matt"
"Hey Matt, can i talk to you?" Elly asked later that night as the women returned from their trip. "Sure El, whats up?" Matt replied as Jasmine and Ruby brushed past them to go see Willow. "Not here, can we go somewhere private?" she asked quietly as Matt nodded, heading off to a quieter part of the hotel. "Whats going on El? Everything ok?" he asked as Elly shook her head, as she told him about the events of the previous night. "Ive not seen her acting strange, although she was really cold towards me last night" he said adding "and sleepwalking? Ive never seen her do that in almost ten years of knowing her" Im talking to her later. I dont care about her being cold and blunt with me, but for her to be sleepwalking and talking about him...somethings off he thought as Elly said "Matt? Are you listening?" "Sorry Elly. Im just worried about her. She was already spiralling after Lucas, i just want to know what set her off this time" he replied as Elly touched him. "Matt i know shes been self harming, she did it when she was sleepwalking last night, but im worried. What if she does it on front of the girls?" she asked, before adding "or worse. Im not saying she would hurt them, but what if..." "She wouldnt El. Im going to try talking to her later" Matt replied adding "thanks for telling me" "Matt, i wasnt sure if i should have told you, but if anyone can get through to her, its you" Elly said as she headed off to find Phil.
"Did you girls have fun with Dada last night?" Willow asked as she tucked Jasmine and Ruby into bed. "We did momma. We went to the park with dada, uncy Jeff, Maxy and maddie" Jasmine replied sleepily, before continuing "then we had yummy yummy pasta and watched a movie. But we misses you momma. Dada misses you lots last night too" "And i missed both of you too. But right now, its time for sleep because we have a very long, special day tomorrow" Willow replied as she kissed her daughters foreheads. "Can we have cuddles momma?" Jasmine asked as Willow snuggled in between her daughters. "Yay momma cuddles" Jasmine said excitedly as she cuddled in. "Momma...is you happy with dada? Hes super happy with you" Jasmine said as Willow sighed "Im happiest when im with you two, and you two are going to the most beautiful princesses tomorrow" she said as Jasmine hugged her until all three fell asleep.
Willow awoke a few hours later to a gentle knocking on her door. She groaned as she slipped out of the bed, trying not to wake Jasmine or Ruby. As she opened the door, Brooke was on the other side almost shaking "Wills i need to talk to you" she said as Willow let her into the room. "Brooke, whats going on? Is everything ok?" she asked as they sat on the bed. "What was it like when you married Matt? Were you happy...scared...nervous..." Brooke asked as Willow hugged her best friend. "I was a mix of emotions for obvious reasons" Willow replied, adding "I was miserable, sad, scared for thinking i was never going to see him or Jasmine again. You know i never wanted to marry Victor and when you and Elly came and took me to the chapel...i felt relief. I was happy, excited, still nervous but mainly happy" "Willow im just so nervous. Im scared. What if Christian hates everything? What if my dress rips or doesnt fit? What if something goes drastically wrong?" Brooke said as Willow shook her head. "Brooke, nothing is going to go wrong. Ive known Chris a long time and he loves you. He would marry you any day, any time in jeans and a tshirt" Willow replied as Brooke let out a giggle. "Just dont end up like me, please" Willow said as Brooke asked "and whats that? A hot, single, mom who can do just about anything?" as it was Willows turn to giggle, "How about a messed up, mom of two who spirals out of control at the slightest thing and doesnt know what she even wants?" she replied as the two girls giggled, before another knock at the door. "Whos knocking this time of night?" Willow joked as she got up to answer it. As she opened it, she let out a sigh as she saw Matt standing there as Brooke said "and this is my cue to leave. See you in the morning? About eleven?" Willow nodded, as Brooke left before turning back to Matt and asking "What do you want Matt?"
"What do you want Matt?" Willow repeated as Matt entered the room. "I just want to talk. I want to know whats going on with you" he said as he sat on the bed. "Im fine Matt. Im just tired" she replied, not being one hundred percent honest with him."Wills, youre not fine. I know you, somethings bothering you" he said as Willow sighed. "Im done talking. We just seem to have to the same conversation over and over. I need more" "What do you mean 'more' Wills?" Matt asked as Willow replied "I want to go out with you. On dates, like we used to" "I can do that Wills. Just tell me when and where and we'll go" he said as he put his arms around her. "Want to tell me what happened last night?" he asked as she shook her head. "Its not that i dont want to, i just cant because i dont know what happened" she replied, adding "I just remember Elly throwing water on me to wake me, there was blood because i cut myself. But i dont remember doing it. Matt, it scared me because ive never, ever sleepwalked" "Its ok Wills, we'll figure it out. And we're going to figure us out too" Matt said as he kissed her forehead."I guess Jas's question the other day kinda threw me a little bit too" she said as she leaned into him, as he asked "which one was that?" "The one about us getting married again" "Do you want to?" he asked as she looked at him and whispered "only to the right person" before kissing him. "What about you Matt? Would you ever get married again?" she asked as they pulled apart. "I dont know, i always thought i'd be with you" he replied as he added "Maybe one day I..." as she cut him off "Matt, youre an idiot" she said as she smiled at him. "YOU are my right person. You always were" she added before kissing him again. "Its getting late Wills, i should get going if you dont want people to talk" Matt said as he stood up, as Willow grabbed his hand and said "Let them talk, i dont care. Stay with me tonight" "Are you sure?" Matt asked as Willow nodded, pulling him back to the bed, where they ended up spending the night together.
Matt awoke first the next morning and smiled as he watched the red head next to him. Grabbing his cell he saw it was almost 7am and that he had a few messages from Christian. Chris can wait for a few more hours. I dont want to leave you like this he thought as he noticed that the Starbucks across the street was opening. He slipped out of bed, dressed quickly and grabbed Willows room key before heading out across the street. Returning a little over thirty minutes later, he let himself back into the room and smiled as Willow hadnt moved. He placed her coffee on the table next to her, before kissing her forehead. "Matt? What time is it?" Willow asked sleepily as she awoke. "A little after seven thirty. I bought you coffee" Matt replied as Willow sat up before grabbing her abs. "Wills, you ok?" Matt asked as she shook her head. "Can you grab my pain meds Matt? They should be in my small bag" she said as she took deep breaths. Matt passed her the meds and watched as she poured a few into her hand, before swallowing them. "Havent felt that for a while" Willow said as she exhaled. "Im fine Matt, before you ask" she added seeing the concerned look on his face. "Want to head down to breakfast soon? The girls will be waking soon and if i know Jas, she'll be wanting pancakes or waffles" Matt asked as Willow smiled. "That sounds exactly like our daughter! Why dont you wake them whilst i take a shower?" she replied as she got out of bed, sipping on her coffee as she headed to the bathroom. Matt checked on the girls and saw that they were still flatout asleep. He crept into the bathroom, undressed and got into the shower behind Willow. He watched as she rinsed the shampoo off her hair before wrapping his arms around her, kissing her neck. "Matt what are you doing?" Willow asked as she turned to face him. "Girls are still out" he replied as he felt the water splashing on him before continuing "And this is probably the only time today we'll get to be alone to do this" before kissing her as they had sex in the shower.
"Wills, you ok? You look like youre a million miles away" Brit asked a few hours later as Elly let the hair and make up people in. "Im ok Brit. Im just thinking about stuff" Willow replied as Brooke sat next to them and said "ooooh is it Matt stuff? You two were looking intense last night as i left" "Its not to do with Matt, but we did talk last night" she replied as she added "Im thinking about giving Lucas another chance" "Willow you cant! Not after what he did" Elly said as she switched with Brooke. "I know, but when we had sex emotions were high and all over" Willow replied as Brit interrupted her. "Willow he raped you and you want to give him another chance?" as Willow nodded. "Like i said, im thinking about it. I havent decided one way or the other yet" she added as Brooke indecated to Brit that she was first up for hair and make up. "Wills, are you one hundred percent sure about Lucas?" Elly asked as Brooke watched Brit get her hair done. "Like i said El, i havent decided. But i do need to talk to him, I just feel horrible about the way we left things" Willow replied as her cell vibrated. "Brooke, moms messaged. Shes going to bring Jas and Rubes over in an hour or so. Is that ok?" Willow said as Brooke nodded. "So where does Matt fit into everything? Have you guys had any more..." Elly asked as Willow shook her head. "We've had some good talks and we're friends. Thats all" she replied, lying to her sister, as Brooke called them over for their turn at hair and make up. "Hey Wills, can i talk to you for a second?" Brooke asked as Willow nodded just before sitting down. "Whats up Brooke? Everything ok?" she asked as Brooke nodded. "Kind of. One of our singers has had to pull out, they were in a crash and i was hoping that my bestie would do a few songs for me and Chris?" she asked as Willow laughed. "Of course. Its actually fitting seeing as how we met" Willow replied as Brooke hugged her. "Now do you have a set list or..." Willow asked as Brooke cut her off. "Go wild, do whatever songs you like" she said as Willow felt the pain again. Elly finished getting her hair done, and moved onto make up as Willow took the seat and began the long process of getting ready.
"Auntie Bwooke! You look like a princess" Jasmine said as Brooke put on her dress. "And you my little Jasdoll, are the most beautiful flowergirl" Brooke replied as she smiled "You and Ruby" "Jas you know the plan for today. You walk down the aisle..." Willow said as Jasmine finished "Throw the flowers and go to dada. I know momma" "You have a smart one there Wills" Brit said as Willow giggled. "She really is, and i love her so much for it" she said as she hugged Jasmine. "Ok girls, how do i look?" Brooke asked as she twirled in her dress. "You look stunning. Christian wont be able to keep his eyes off you" Brit said, hugging her twin, as Elly added "Or his hands later" "Thanks girls, i guess im just nervous and anxious" "Bee, listen to me. Breathe. Christian loves you, you love him" Willow said as she stood up picking up Ruby. "Thanks Wills. I have so much to thank you for it would take a lifetime" Brooke said as she glanced at the clock, "less than an hour left then ill be Mrs Reso" she sighed as Brit took a phone call. "Hey Brooke, that was mom. Cars have arrived to take us to the venue" "No going back now. Lets head downstairs" Brooke said as the group of women left the room.
"You ok Wills? Youve been pretty quiet all day" Amy asked a later that night, the wedding party in full swing. "Im ok mom. Its just today brought back a lot of memories for me" Willow replied, as she watched Matt dance with Jasmine. "It'll get easier in time Wills" Amy said as Willow sighed, but before she had the chance to reply Brooke came over and said "Its almost time to sing Wills. You do still want to, right?" "Of course i do, how long do i have?" Willow replied "You can have up to an hour. Thank you so so much for this Wills. You really are my best friend" Brooke said as she hugged her. I need a drink before i start singing she thought to herself as a waiter brought around a tray of champagne. As she drank it, she felt the alcohol numb her nerves. Willow barely heard Brooke announcing her to the stage when she pulled herself together. Willow sang for twenty minutes before beginning one of her favourite songs
I know I can be a little stubborn sometimes
A little righteous and too proud
I just want to find a way to compromise
Cos I believe that we can work things out
I thought I had all the answers
Never giving in
But baby since you've gone
I admit that I was wrong
All I know is I'm lost without you
I'm not gonna lie
How am I gonna be strong without you
I need you by my side
If we ever said we'll never be together
and we ended with goodbye
Don't know what I'd do
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to find my way
but all I know is
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
Lost without you
How am I ever gonna get rid of these blues?
Baby I'm so lonely all the time
Everywhere I go I get so confused
You're the only thing that's on my mind
Oh my beds so cold at night
I miss you more each day
Only you can make it right
No I'm not too proud to say
All I know is I'm lost without you
I'm not gonna lie
How am I gonna be strong without you
I need you by my side
If we ever said we'll never be together
and we ended with goodbye
Don't know what I'd do
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to find my way
but all I know is
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
Lost without you
If I could only hold you now
Make the pain just go away
Can't stop the tears from running down my face
(oh)
All I know is I'm lost without you
I'm not gonna lie
How am I gonna be strong without you
I need you by my side
If we ever said we'll never be together
and we ended with goodbye
Don't know what I'd do
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to find my way (yeah)
but all I know is
I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
(but all I know is)Lost without you
I keep trying to find my way
And all I know is
I'm lost without you
i'm Lost without you
As she sang, she made eye contact with Matt, who instantly knew she was singing about them. As she scanned the room, she saw him out of the corner of her eye. Stood in the doorway was Lucas.
