An hour or so later we re-dressed and made our way out of the hotel, fingers linked together like love struck teens. Then again...that’s what he made me feel like.

“Okay then Dan...where are we going?” I giggle as we walked up a long road past a few night clubs and takeaway bars.

“Shopping.” he grinned

“It doesn’t look like there are shops around here.” I reply looking around at the side streets and flats.

“We’re taking the bus into town.”

“Ahh okay, I hope you know which one and don’t get us lost.” 

“I asked the concierge lady, we need the forty two, forty three, the one four two or the one four three.”

“I’m just going to look for one that says city centre.”

“Do you not trust me?”

“Of course but your sense of direction is rubbish . Hence why we always use Sadie Sat Nav.”

“She is good at what she does.” Dan laughs 

We make our way to the main road before walking to the nearest bus stop. I made small talk with the young girl next to me to find out if we were taking the right bus. Dan was actually right.

I linked my fingers with Dan’s as a rather scary woman stood in front of us waiting to get onto the bus. I swear the woman looked like a witch. Scraggly long black hair, wrinkly skin, and dark eyes. She scared the hell out of me and was carrying like thirty bags and a suitcase. This woman was mental. Plus she was talking to herself, I swear i haven’t seen anyone this crazy down south. Then again...I never take the bus.

We made it into the city centre without the crazy woman talking to us. She did however have a huge argument with the bus driver who kicked her out at the next stop. I couldn’t stop laughing, this woman was too funny. 

“Let’s go get you spoiled.” Dan smiles at me before linking his fingers through mine.

We made our way into the high street but not before I made him go into Primark. I picked out a couple of cute tops, skirts and a dress. Grabbed a few accessories before going upstairs to the underwear section. I grabbed a couple of bras with matching underwear and then a couple of slutty lingerie pieces to surprise Dan later on. I made my way across the top off the store adding PJ’s to my basket. Good job Dan was carrying it, it was getting rather heavy.

“Awwwww Dan look.” I smile picking up the tiniest baby-grow I’d ever seen. “It’s so small.”

“Yea I know , it’s so cute.”

As I wandered around the baby racks, I began feeling broody again. I know I wasn’t pregnant but all these babies around and the clothes were getting too much. I was about to leave when I saw something too adorable to not buy.

It was a white baby-grow , with “My daddy loves me but...” on the front and “My mummy loves me more” on the back

It was so cute not to purchase so I placed it on top of the basket.

Dan looked at me so confused as I placed it on top of my other clothes. “I may not be pregnant but a certain twin of mine is” I wink at him walking out of the baby area before I bought everything in sight.

As we got to the till queue I picked up the baby-grow and looked at it. It was hard to believe someone so small could fit into this.

“You getting broody again ?” Dan whispered to me, leaning his head on my shoulder.

“Kinda, but I’m glad the test was negative. I want to feel one hundred percent happy and secure when we take one. And I want your baby, not a chance that it could be someone else’s.” I sigh placing it back down.

“, I know what you mean. But one day we will try for our own yea. Just not right now...I don’t think we’re ready.”

“Yea I know ...”

“Till six please.” The woman shouted, interrupting what i was saying.

I walked over to the till with Dan placing my basket on the top of the till.

“What were you saying then ?” Dan asked holding my hand.

“Doesn’t matter” I smile at him before he wraps his arms around my waist from behind.

“You are a rubbish liar to your best friend, you know that?” he whispers down my ear making me giggle.

“I know.”

“Tell me later.” He replied kissing my cheek before putting his card into the machine

“No I’m paying.” I say trying to pull his card out.

“My treat, I told you.” He winked at me

“Fine...thank you.” I smiled at him, picking up one on the large brown bags. “But I’m buying tea.”

“I can’t promise nothing . This trip is my treat.”

I roll my eyes at him, knowing full well he will get his way. We made our way down the high street passing street performers and a man preaching about Jesus along the way. We went into a couple more shops not getting anything before heading into The Arndale Shopping Centre to wreak havoc on more shops.

“Dan, where are we going tonight? I need to know what to wear?” I shout to him from the bathroom

“You’ll be perfect in anything.” He replied poking his head around the bathroom door.

“Okay. I’ll just wear this.” I smile at him, stood in my towel.

“I will specify that you need to put on some clothes but other than that, you can wear anything.”

I laugh at him and roll my eyes. I didn’t think he could be this secretive to me, I used to be able to get anything out of him.

I slipped on my new underwear and pulled out my deep purple maxi dress. I sorted myself out, straightening my long blonde hair and applying my make-up.

“You nearly ready gorgeous?” Dan asked walking into the bedroom in smart jeans and a black shirt. He looked so handsome. 

“Yea I’m ready.” I smile picking up my handbag, walking towards him and pecking his lips, “Let’s go handsome.”

“Picture first.”

He pulled out his phone and pulled me close to him. The flash went on the camera then he turned his face to mine. I looked him in the eye and smiled before another flash went off.

“One more.” He smiles before his lips met mine. I closed my eyes as his lips moved against mine as another flash went off.

He showed me his phone and we looked at the pictures. “Send me the second one.” I smiled leaning my head on his chest, “I like that one.”

“I like them all baby girl.” He smiled before making the picture of us kissing his screen background.

I saved mine onto my phone before slipping it back into my bag. I linked my fingers through Dan’s as we made our way down the corridor of the hotel. 

A taxi was waiting to collect us before dropping us off outside a very posh looking restaurant. 

“Dan , you don’t need to take me to fancy places you know?”

“Yea I know , but I want to spoil you on this trip.” He smiled proudly at me

“Well thank you.” I smile kissing him gently, 

We walked into the restaurant and a young waitress took us to our table. 

“Can I get you any drinks?” she smiles as we sit down

“Can we have a minute to look at the menu please.” I reply politely

“Sure, I’ll be back over in a couple of minutes. My name is Sarah and I’ll be your waitress for the evening.”

She walked away but not before flicking her hair and smiling at Dan. I rolled my eyes before turning my attention back to Dan. 

“You okay ?” he asks me

“Yea, I’m fine.” I grin at him, linking our fingers together across the table.

I ordered a glass of rose wine as Dan ordered a beer. “I’ll be over with your drinks.” The waitress smiled at Dan before walking away.

Once again when she came over she was smiling at Dan. She placed my drink down before slowly bending down in front of Dan to give him his beer, giving him a clear view down her blouse.

“I’ll give you and your friend a couple more minutes before I come over to take your orders.” She smiled, her eyes firmly on Dan.

“Girlfriend actually.” I reply and hand over the menu. “And we’re ready to order now.”

I saw Dan wink at me and the waitress’ face turned sour.

“Fine.” She replied taking out her pad and pencil

She walked off in a huff, placing our order through the till. She was talking to another waitress and nodded over in our direction. The other girl looked at me and smirked at us.

“Baby don’t let that girl spoil tonight okay.” Dan says pulling my hands towards him.

“I’m not, she’s just annoying me at how she’s smiling and flirting with you when she can clearly see I’m here with you.”

“Baby she obviously has no self respect. You have nothing to worry about with me; you have all of my attention.”

“I know .”

She walks over and placed down our orders. We ordered more drinks but not before she brushed her hand against Dan’s.

I glared at her and Dan flinched his hand away immediately much to her annoyance. She looked at me when walking back to her station; well it was more of a glare than a look. I rolled my eyes and smiled before turning back to Dan. I wasn’t going down to her level.

We finished up our meal and Dan went over to the till to pay. I went to the bathroom and came out to see him talking to a man in a grey suit. 

“Everything okay?” I ask as he comes over. I link my fingers with his as we leave.

“Yea, I just mentioned to the manager how it was awkward for us to enjoy our meal when our waitress kept flirting with me. So he apologised, gave me a discount on our meal and said he would speak to her as her actions were out of order.”

I smiled to myself as we got into another taxi. “We going back to the hotel now ?” I ask him but he secretly smiled at me, I guess not.

I leant my head on his shoulder and I felt his lips graze my head. “You are amazing, you know that?” I whisper before looking up at him.

I pushed my lips onto his and he smiled into our kiss. “I love you”

“I love you too Dan”

I cuddled up next to him as the car continued to take us to the unknown.
