Bright and Early

In the morning Emily heard Damien’s car outside and kissed James goodbye who was still in bed. She took her suitcase and headed out to the car and was met by Damien who was mesmerised by her. “Wow” he thought to himself as he watched her walk over to him with the suitcase wearing black shorts and a white t shirt that stopped at her belly button. Damien then took the suitcase from Emily and put it in the back as Emily got in…once ready they drove off.

Emily was sort of giddy to go to such a fancy event and sort of being naughty by pretending to be Dames girlfriend…they talked pretty much the whole way about a plan of action, what to say, what not to say and how they should look together but eventually they relaxed and talked about life and before they knew it they were there!

“Wow look at this place…such a special venue” Emily stated as her eyes were fixed looking out the window.

Damien laughed “cost them enough”

Seconds later he pulled into a spot and stepped out of the car and took out Emily’s suitcase from the backseat, before Emily got out of the car she could hear a commotion outside of people greeting eachother only to see in the wing mirror that it must be Damien’s mother and father!

Immediately Emily got out of the car and approached the newly formed group.

“Ah mum, dad this is Emily, Emily this is my mum and dad” Damien said proudly with a hint of apprehension.

Almost immediately Damien’s mother hugged her “oh we’ve heard so much about you for such a long time! It’s so nice to finally meet you! So glad you’ve been keeping my boy in check!…” *there’s a slight pause* “just call us mum and dad! It’s easier”

Emily smiled back at her and gave Damien a smirk of surprise before responding “awh thank you! Hopefully all good! I’ve heard so much about you too! Well you know he needs me to otherwise he’d go crazy!” She joked… “well nice to meet you finally mum and dad” Emily said slightly giggling.

Damien grabbed Emily’s suitcase and her hand showing off his muscles. “Shall we go to the reception?”

“Yes let’s” Emily says smiling up at Damien.

As they walk into the reception they’re greeted by a chirpy young man behind the desk eager to please “hello there, looking to check in?”

“Yes we are…should be under Damien” Damien states

“Yes sir, one room…*he turns around the grab the key and then hands it to Damien*

Emily is walking behind Damien who walking to find their room while holding Emily’s luggage.

“One room eh?” Emily jokes

“It was all that’s available as I booked late but should be two singles” Damien says with confidence.

As they enter the room they are met with something they didn’t expect…a double bed.

“Well uh…this is awkward” Damien says awkwardly

“You know what, we are grown ups. James doesn’t need to know we shared a bed…this is fine! We’ve come this far ha ha” Emily jokes

This seems to put Damien at ease as he puts her suitcase on the bed and helps her unpack. Before long they’re both unpacked and are sat on their phones before there’s a knock at the door.

“I’ll get it” Emily says jumping off the bed.
