"Babe I literally could not be happier right now." He then paused. "Well that's wrong I could be in the hot tub with you."
"Shut up. Do you not think it's wet that they get a night away just the two of them?"
"Oh yeah of course I do. If anyone deserves it, it's those two."
"Can we just keep this a secret between us two for the time being? We can tell everyone tomorrow but I know Michael and Amber have something going on tonight and so do Amy and Curtis so let's let them have their moment to shine."
"You're probably the most considerate person I've ever met. You really do never put your feeling before someone else's."
"I try."

The next morning when Amy and Curtis came back I could instantly see the glow in her face. I was still cuddled up in bed with Tommy as she managed to detach herself from Curtis.
"Come and girls I'll give you a debrief."
We went upstairs and all circled around the make up table with her in the centre.
"So how was it?"
"It was really good we spent a bit of time in the room, it's so amazing up there, then we went in the hot tub. But the most amazing bit was he was like I don't want anyone else and nobody's going to change that."
"Ahh"
"I know. So he was like I want to move it to the next stage, will you be my half girlfriend. I was just like of course."
"So you've never been a girlfriend or half girlfriend before. How does it feel?" Amber asked.
"It feels really nice. So update me then on what's happened."
"I had my kiss with Michael. It was actually really nice. But this morning I am freaking out a bit again."
"You're going crazy."
"Oh I know."
"What about the rest of you?"
"Tommy and I may have like cemented our feelings for each other."
"What!" Molly shouted. "Tell us all."
"Well basically I just said I appreciate everything he's been doing for me and even though I don't want to be in a relationship I want to make a go of it."
"So are things done with you and Danny?"
"Yeah I'll let the rest of you fight over that."
"Thanks" Molly said sarcastically.
"No but that is really sweet." Amy said. "I can tell he really likes you."
"Yeah I think so as well"

Lucie and Joe went on a date that day and made themselves exclusive. I don't really know what to think about it though as Lucie has been distancing herself from us. She likes to talk one on one but is never in our girly chats.

"How are you feeling about Joe and Lucie then?" I asked Amy as we sat with our respective partners at the fire pit.
"I don't know. I just find it about convenient how they became a couple on the same day as us. It was just like taking our thunder."
"I know. When Tommy had the conversation with me yesterday I was a bit wary about telling anyone because of what had happened with you two. I wanted it to be your night."
"Thank you. I just think that when big steps in a relationship happen they should be celebrated by everyone."
"It's hard because don't you think she's been distancing herself from us girls."
"Yeah she spends a lot of time with Joe and then Tommy." Amy said.
"Yeah I spend a bit of time with her." Tommy confirmed.
"I speak to her a lot but always one on one. Of course I don't mind that but I think she's just out of the loop a bit and it's heard because of course you want to spend a lot of time with your partner."
"Oh yeah but you need friends for when you have a little fight or feel like you're getting bored of them."
