Abbie kicks Bridget and points at him and we all giggle silently.

“What are you wearing?” he asks.

Bridget’s eyes just about pop out of her head.

“Yeah, that’s too much,” he replies sexily in a hushed voice. He listens again.

“Naked and on your knees.” He listens for a moment. “I will be there in twenty,” he whispers huskily and then he hangs up and disappears upstairs.

We all burst into giggles. “Naked and on your knees,” Bridget whispers. “Who says that?”

I smile broadly. “His brother.”

“Oh, my fuck, they probably have it written down… like in a journal of hot talk,” Abbie laughs.

Bridget throws her head back onto the lounge chair. “Oh god, do you think Ben has that journal?” Bridget sighs.

I hold my hands up in a stop signal. “Oh my god, Didge, I forgot to tell you. Ben likes you,” I whisper.

“What!” she snaps.

“He said that he stopped it because you wouldn’t be an easy girl to leave.”

She frowns. “He said that?”

I smile broadly and nod.

“Oh, fuck off, that’s pathetic,” Abbie snaps.

“What’s pathetic?” Joshua asks as he enters the room.

“I was just saying that I can’t wait to start our life here together,” I reply nervously to throw him off the scent.

Joshua smirks. “I agree. That is pathetic Marx.”

The girls and I burst into laughter and I wrap my arms around Joshua’s waist. He is still in his suit, although his jacket has been ditched hours ago.

He kisses my forehead. “I’m going to bed.” His eyes hold mine in a silent invitation and I smile.

“I’m coming,” I whisper.

His dark eyes drop to my lips and he licks them in anticipation as I feel that familiar pulse in my core. My man needs his sleeping pill.

Chapter 6

‘The Power of Love’ by Gabrielle Aplin rings out and my sleepy eyes struggle to open. It takes me a minute to realise it’s my new phone ring and I scramble out of bed and dive into my handbag on the dressing table.

“Hello.” My voice is groggy.

“Hi love. Did I wake you?” Mum’s soothing voice coos down the phone.

I smile broadly. “Yes, but it’s ok. I miss you,” I mumble as I sit naked on the end of my bed.

“I just rang to check everything is alright. I spoke to Bridge last night and she told me that Joshua’s cars got stolen.”

I blow out a breath and run my hand through my hair. “Yeah, they did.”

“Is Joshua ok?” she asks.
