this is parts 1-5
PART 1
Coronation street titles fade into a scene where the Webster are loading their cases into the car, Kevin places his, then sally’s and Sophie’s into the book before sally shouts from the front door.
Sally – Rosie come on your holding us up, and where’s that boyfriend of yours.
Sally spun on her heel to walk back to the car and bumps straight into Craig.
Craig – oh sorry, am I late?
Rosie comes out of the door pulling two large suitcases and smiles at the sight of her beloved, she then rushes over and hugs him.
Rosie – only fashionably.
As he moves to kiss her, Sophie bleating, imitating kissing noises interrupts them.
Kevin – Sophie, stop being so immature, Rosie keep your tongue in your own mouth and Craig…
Craig – yes
Kevin – good morning how are you today?
Kevin picks up Craig’s suitcase and places it into the boot of the car, before moving to put in the two suitcases standing next to Rosie.
Craig – erm fine. Listen are you sure you want me to come with you, because I don’t mind if you don’t.
Sophie – well now you mention it.
Rosie – oh shut up you, are you going to be this happy all holiday Sophie?
Sally rolled down the car window.
Sally – are you going to get into this car today miss sarcastic?
Rosie throws her a look before grabbing Craig’s hand and pulling him to the car, followed by Sophie.
Once all bucked up, Kevin started the engine and they drove out of coronation street.
Once they reached the motorway, Rosie had already fallen asleep, with her head flopped gently again Craig’s chest as his fingers softly played with her hair, he gazed down at her softly. Kevin smiled seeing the sight through the window. He nudged sally who turned around to look.
Sally – aww that’s so sweet.
Sally whisper to Kevin, while reaching into her bag for her camera. She raised it in front of the pair, and pressed the button. The bright light luminated the car and Rosie woke with a start.
Rosie – what the…
Sally – oh Kevin look at this, isn’t it cute?
Kevin mumbled a reply before turning his attention back to the wheel. Rosie settled back down on Craig as he placed his head on top of hers and closed his eyes while Sophie picked a magazine out of her bag, and began to read it.
2 hours later
Rosie stirred to the feeling of somebody tickling her arm, she knew it was Craig. So she decided to have a little fun with him.
Craig – Rosie wake up, we’re at the airport.
Rosie – oh David, just 5 more minutes
Craig stood back in shock.
Craig – David?!?
Rosie opened her eyed and looked at Craig before bursting out laughing.
Rosie – you feel for it didn’t you?
Craig stood back his cheeks starting to go red with embarrassment. He started to stutter that he knew she was joking all along. Until he felt her hand slip into his and squeeze it.
Rosie – im only playing with you.
He smiled at her before grabbing his suitcase and the one of hers. As she grabs the other.
Sally – by the time you two have decided to join us and get on the plane, it will be time for me to go home again
Rosie – and I’m ms sarcastic?!?
Crag laughs as the walk to join the group. They checked in their suitcases then went to the departure lounge. Kevin, Sophie and sally went to the duty free shops while Craig and Rosie went to sit in the café. Craig ordered one water and one milky coffee. After collecting the drinks, he took then to the table and sits down.
Rosie – okay we have 20 minutes to kill, lets play a game.
Craig – can’t we just snog?
Rosie – we can snog on the plane, now so would you rather be away from me for one WHOLE year, or sleep with another girl?
Craig – oh tough one, I’d have to say spend a year away from you. That way I would stay loyal to you.
Rosie – aww theirs my good boy.
She leans over and kiss’ him before patting him on the head.
Craig – oh you cheeky thing.
They lean over and start kissing before Rosie came round the table and sat on Craig’s knee. They carry on before they hear a little snigger come from behind them.
Rosie – mum can you tell her to grow up.
Sally – Sophie grow up and Rosie just let me know if you understand these 4 words. Tongue. In. own. Mouth.
Rosie looked at Craig before fixing her eyes back onto her mother.
Rosie – yes I understand.
Kevin – good then do it.
Rosie smirks before climbing off Craig’s knee, then pulling him up and hugging him.
INTERCOM – FLIGHT 27GF8HI TO PARIS WITH BMI BABY IS NOW BOARDING, ALL PASSENGERS TO GATES 3 AND 4.
PART 2
As the plane began to descend into Paris international airport, Rosie squeezed Craig’s hand and buried her hair into his chest. Craig glanced over to sally and Sophie who were sitting the opposite isle and he saw sally whisper.
Sally – she’s afraid of the airplane crashing.
Craig – Yes that sounds like her, always thinking positive.
Intercom – hello everybody this is captain Johnson, just to inform you we are now descending into Paris international, if you could do up your seat belts and stay seated until the seatbelt signs are switched off, thank you for flying with BMI baby today and please enjoy your holiday in Paris.
Once the plane had reached the ground Rosie finally let go of Craig’s hand, he looked at it.
Craig – ah looks like I’ve got sunburn already.
Craig laughed.
Rosie – well im sorry, I did warn you. You could have sat next to Sophie if you wanted to.
Craig looked over at the younger Webster sister to find her lecturing her mother about how long they are having to wait to get off the airplane and how hot she is.
Craig – erm I think I may just pass on that offer, besides my hands is not that bad…sort of.
Rosie giggles while the seatbelt sign is removed
Intercom – ladies and gentlemen you are now free to leave the aircraft.
Sophie – oh finally.
All 4 of the Webster’s and Craig got off the aircraft before going to the luggage collection. Once they had collected their suitcases they headed off to find their taxi. Right ahead of them was a man who was holding up a card saying ‘Webster’ on it.
Kevin – that must be for us then.
Rosie – no way Sherlock!
They all strolled over to the man, Craig and Rosie hand in hand; Kevin and sally walked with Sophie in-between them.
As they edged closer to the man, he began to look more familiar, like one of those face you just know you have seen before.
Then it clicked!
Kevin – dad?
The man smiled at Kevin and stepped forward to shake his hand.
Bill – son, and the whole family too! I begged the boss to let me be your chauffeur for these four days.
Bill glances over at Sophie before smiling.
Bill – oh Rosie aren’t you quite the young lady now, how old are you now?
Sophie – im not Rosie!!! Im Sophie, and im 12. Freaks over there.
Bill looks over at Rosie before his face settles into a large smile.
Rosie – hi granddad.
Bill comes over and hugs her tight.
Bill – my little Rosie! Well you defiantly are the little lady and…
His eye is court by the tall boy standing next to Rosie he looks Craig up and down before turning his attention back to Rosie.
Bill – …and who is this strapping young fellow of yours a presume Rosie?
Rosie slides her hand around Craig’s waist and holds onto him tight.
Rosie – this is Craig, you know.
Bill – ah, the famous Craig, lovely to finally meet you Craig.
Craig – you to sir.
Bill – well lets get going shall we?
They all clamber into the taxi waiting for them, and chatter the whole 20 minutes to the hotel. When the car stops outside the hotel, the all get out grab their bags and check in before going to their rooms.
Sophie, Kevin and sally to a room, and Craig and Rosie to their own.
Rosie unlocks the door and her and Craig step inside their room. Baggage in tow.
Rosie – wow, our first hotel room together.
Craig – do you know that you get excited over the littlest of things.
Rosie – yeah, but that’s why you love me.
She places her hands on his waist and pulls him into a passionate kiss. Until bill comes through the door.
Bill – sorry to interrupt, but I have this dinner planed for the two of you tonight. It was me and the miss’ but something’s come up so…
He places a card with were and when on their bedside table.
Bill – have fun!
He leaves with a slam of the door and Craig looks at Rosie befouled.
Rosie – well im going in the shower, we only have 3 hours to get ready!
She leaves the room before popping her head back round the door, to find Craig turning on the television.
Rosie – boys!
PART 3
As Craig finishes doing up his jacket, Rosie emerges from the bathroom in a floor length, backless black dress. Her hair, softly curled fell delicately onto her shoulder. Craig turned;
Craig – wow!
She smiled at him before slowly walking forward towards the mirror.
Rosie – you like it then?
Craig – er, yeah! Where did you get that?
Rosie – oh this? I was ment to wear it to the oak hill ball last year, but I decided to wear the other one that I, shall we say customised.
He walks over to her, kneels down to her level, and places his hands on her shoulders.
Craig – you should have wore this one.
She gives him a weak, embarrassed smile before grabbing her clench bag.
Rosie – shall we go?
He took her hand and they walked out the door locking it behind them, before…BANG! They ran straight into Sophie, Kevin and sally.
Sally – and where are you to going?
Rosie – well if you must know we are going to the Ritz for dinner, granddad booked us the table and he is paying for it.
Craig – very exclusive you know.
Then they simple walked by them wishing them goodnight, they walked down the long marble staircase, before getting into the black stretched limo. (also provided by granddaddy)
After a 30-minute driving, they got out of the limo and walked down the red carpet and into the restaurant, were they were greeted and shown to their table.
Then they sat down, ordered their food, and a glass of wine each, rosé for Rosie, white for Craig.
Rosie – this is nice isn’t it.
Craig – the fact that we are eating alone, or in a posh restaurant?
Rosie gave a slight giggle before taking a sip of her wine. She then puts on a posh voice.
Rosie – all though I do feel rather ponsey, don’t you master Harris?
Craig – oh yes, lady Webster, rather quaint.
Rosie giggles again, but stop when she sees Craig’s face go very serious.
Rosie – what’s wrong?
Craig – nothing I just looking at you, do you know what in thinking?
Rosie – why am I with this woman?
Craig – kind of, im thinking why is this beautiful woman with me?
Rosie smiles before taking his hand.
Rosie – because I love you that why.
She then leans over the table and kiss’ him gently.
Craig – lady Webster? Can I ask you something?
Rosie – yes master Harris?
Craig – well I don’t know really how to put this, so im just going to say it…
He gets off his chair and comes over to her, before getting down on one knee.
Rosie – Craig?
Craig – no don’t say anything yet or I will lose my word. Here it goes.
Rosie Annabel Webster, I have loved you since that first time I set eyes on you, almost 3 years ago, I love the way you laugh, the way you smile... the way you screw your little button nose up and your sometimes very odd ways but…
He pulls a small black box out of his trouser pocket.
Craig -… you just being my girlfriend isn’t enough anymore, so will you do me the honour of becoming Lady Harris.
He them opens the box to reveal a stunning white gold ring, with diamonds around the front. And on the inside is engraved ‘C&R – ALWAYS’
PART 4
Rosie stares from Craig to the ring, Craig to the ring.
Rosie – Craig…well I don’t know what to say.
She snuffles back tears and he edges towards her, I big smile spread across his face.
Craig – say yes.
Rosie – YES!
He jumps up and hugs her, tears steaming down her face, as a broad smile emerges. He goes back down onto one knee before taking her left hand and placing the ring on her finger, she lifted her hand and it shone in the faint light.
Rosie – but Craig, where did you get it?
Craig – my grandmother gave it to me when I was little, I remember it was just before we moved to Manchester, she sat me down and said “Craig, now I want you to listen and listen carefully. When you are older you are going to find a woman who you want to spend the rest of your life with. When you do I want you to give her this” and then she gave me the ring. It was my idea to have it engraved.
She grabbed him and pulled him towards her, and kissed him like her life depended on it.
Craig – I just never thought I would meet her so soon.
Rosie giggles, before he kiss’ her again, then kiss’ the ring.
Craig – you know what this means don’t you.
Rosie – what does it mean?
Craig – it means you are now stuck with me for the rest of your life, and you cannot go off with any other man.
Rosie – oh I think I might be able to stay faithful.
Then the manager comes over to them.
Manager – excusez moi, monsieur, mademoiselle. j'ai juste a entendu les bonnes nouvelles. Félicitations!
Rosie – merci, monsieur.
And with that the manger walks away.
Craig with a slightly dazzled look on him face looks at Rosie.
Craig – and that ment…?
Rosie – he said “excuse me sir, madam. I have just heard the good news. Congratulations.
Craig – oh so that’s what he said. Hang on how do you know French.
Rosie smirked.
Rosie – what can I say, im brilliant.
Craig smiled and took her hand again, and started to play with her ring.
Rosie – don’t even think about taking it off, because im never going to let you.
Craig – no I wasn’t, im just looking a beautiful ring, for my beautiful wife to be. That sounds odd doesn’t it.
Rosie – yeah, and you know what sounds odder?
Craig – what?
Rosie – Mrs Rosie Harris.
Craig smiled, and blushed a bit.
Craig – I like it, it has a ring to it.
Rosie – hum, its has 1 to many R’s in it.
Craig laughs before smiling at her. that sort of smile that she knows he is up to something.
Rosie – what?
Craig – well if you want I can just call you ‘the mrs’’.
Rosie – oh no you wont, because I am never going to be called ‘the mrs’’. It’s awful!
Soon there dinner arrives, after they pay with the money provided by her granddad and leave. Getting back into the limo and going back to their hotel. When their Rosie went up to her room, to tell her granddad of her engagement, and Craig went to use the hotel phone.
Craig – Hello there, could I speak to Angela Harris please.
Prison person – I shall just check.
About 5 minutes passed before somebody came back onto the phone.
? – Hello?
Craig – mum?
Angela – oh Craig my darling, how are you?
Craig – I great mum, quess where I am.
Angela – I hope you are in bourmeth.
Craig – no try Paris, I’m on holiday with Rosie and family.
Angela – oh dear that’s lovely are you having a good time?
Craig – yeah, erm mum I have something to tell you, you know that ring grandma gave me. The engagement one.
Angela – yes.
Craig – well I’ve given it to Rosie, as an engagement ring.
Angela – oh Craig, but that’s wonderful news. Lets me know when the wedding is, and I’ll ask the wardens if I can come.
Craig’s face dropped at the thought of him mum maybe not being at his wedding.
Craig – yeah, that would be gre…
Angela – oh Craig honey I’ve got to go, bye. Kisses
Then the line went dead and Craig sadly put down the phone, he walked back to his and Rosie’s room with tears in his eyes. He opened to door to see a contented Rosie admiring her ring. She looked up to see his face stained with tears. She simply walked up to him, took him into her arms.
Rosie – honey, it will be ok, I promise.
Rolls the coronation street titles.
PART 5
The coronation street credits roll into the image of Craig and Rosie snuggled up in a posh 4 poster bed next to each other, Rosie again admiring her ring, while Craig softly snored in a dazed sleep mode. His eyes still slightly red from crying last night. Rosie snuck out of bed, put on her dressing gown, and went through the connected door that lead to Sophie and her granddads room, luckily her granddad went out early so it was just Sophie, sound asleep in her bed. She walked over to Sophie’s bed, before gently pushing her arm to wake her.
Rosie – Sophie?
Sophie, being Sophie turned over with a grunt and tried to get back to sleep. So Rosie wondered back to her and Craig’s room, to find Craig gone from their bed. She shrugged her shoulder before going to her dressing table, and then two hands came up behind her and covered her eyes.
Craig – guess whom?
Rosie smirked, she knew exactly who it was, but she decided to have a little fun with her new fiancé.
Rosie – hum…Orlando bloom?
Craig – nope.
Rosie – Leonardo dicaprio?
Craig – nope.
Rosie – erm… could it be that annoying little man, who lives with the croppers, you know the one always looking at me…oh gosh what’s his name.
She smiles as she feels Craig lower his hands.
Rosie – ah mr Craig Harris, I never would have known!
Craig laughs at his fiancés slightly odd sense of humour, before kissing her.
Craig – good morning. Sleep well?
Rosie – oh very well thank you, what about you?
Craig – oh you know, I couldn’t complain.
She giggles before glancing over towards to clock, it read 9.23am.
Rosie – gosh Craig we have to be at breakfast in 7 minutes.
She got up out of her seat before rushing over to her suitcases, and picking out an outfit. While Craig just sat down at the dressing table, Rosie simply turns and stares at him.
Rosie – are you not going to get dress.
Craig looks bewildered.
Craig – well I was just going to go like this.
Rosie – Craig Harris! You cannot go down to breakfast in a fancy hotel, in your boxers!
Craig gets up out of the chair before walking towards her.
Craig – Mrs Harris! Are you complaining at this early stage?
She giggles for throwing him a t-shirt and pair of jeans.
Rosie – we will come back up later to get changed for the pool!
With that they both got changed into the breakfast clothes, and walked down to the hotel restaurant. They joined the other Webster’s and sat down at their table. After breakfast, they all got changed into their swimming gear and went down the pool.
Craig wearing simple black trucks with a white stripe down each side, Rosie in a hot pink and white bikini, an O’Neill, surfer chick sort of bikini.
As Craig sat on the side of the poll, Rosie had gone to get drinks for the pair of them. Sophie and her mom and dad were messing around in the pool. When Rosie returned she put the drinks down, the snuck up behind Craig and pushed him into the pool.
He surfaces about 20 seconds later, spitting and sputtering.
Craig – why you evil little madam!
Rosie shrieked as he clambered out of the pool and chased Rosie behind the apartment block out of site. Pinning her against a wall.
Craig – got you!
Rosie – not quite!
She ducked down out of his arms and ran back to the pool, before jumping in, quickly followed by Craig. While they are both under the water, she grabs him shoulder and pulls him into a kiss. Then they both have to come back up for air. Craig raps his arms around her waist. Rosie giggles as she sees Craig’s hair plastered against his face. She raises her hands, and softly pushes it back out of his eyes, and stares into them.
Rosie – you’ve got beautiful eyes, do you know that?
Craig – well my mother always said so.
She giggles again before pulling him into a hug. Then gagging noises came from behind them. Sophie.
Rosie – what is SO disgusting about a hug Sophie?
Sophie – you call that little sequence a hug, because I call it getting off, yet again that’s all you to do isn’t it. That’s a far as you pair dare to go.
Craig – oh we have gone further misses!
Sophie suddenly chocked on her drink.
Sophie – you mean you’ve…?
Rosie – why do you think I was locked in my room, New Year.
Sally – ok Rosie lets not bring that back up again shall we.
Rosie looked over at her mother who was sunbathing.
Rosie – yes mother dearest.
As she turned back to Craig, sally saw something glisten under neither the water, something that appeared to be on Rosie’s hand.
Sally – Rosie raise both of your hands out the water please.
She raised her hands, and sally saw the ring, the white gold glistening due to the water, and the diamonds due to the sun.
Sally took in a gasp of breath.
Sally – your engaged!?!
sorry its quite long, what do you think.

He them opens the box to reveal a stunning white gold ring, with diamonds around the front. And on the inside is engraved ‘C&R – ALWAYS’
PART 4
Rosie stares from Craig to the ring, Craig to the ring.
Rosie – Craig…well I don’t know what to say.
She snuffles back tears and he edges towards her, I big smile spread across his face.
Craig – say yes.
Rosie – YES!
He jumps up and hugs her, tears steaming down her face, as a broad smile emerges. He goes back down onto one knee before taking her left hand and placing the ring on her finger, she lifted her hand and it shone in the faint light.
Rosie – but Craig, where did you get it?
Craig – my grandmother gave it to me when I was little, I remember it was just before we moved to Manchester, she sat me down and said “Craig, now I want you to listen and listen carefully. When you are older you are going to find a woman who you want to spend the rest of your life with. When you do I want you to give her this” and then she gave me the ring. It was my idea to have it engraved.
She grabbed him and pulled him towards her, and kissed him like her life depended on it.
Craig – I just never thought I would meet her so soon.
Rosie giggles, before he kiss’ her again, then kiss’ the ring.
Craig – you know what this means don’t you.
Rosie – what does it mean?
Craig – it means you are now stuck with me for the rest of your life, and you cannot go off with any other man.
Rosie – oh I think I might be able to stay faithful.
Then the manager comes over to them.
Manager – excusez moi, monsieur, mademoiselle. j'ai juste a entendu les bonnes nouvelles. Félicitations!
Rosie – merci, monsieur.
And with that the manger walks away.
Craig with a slightly dazzled look on him face looks at Rosie.
Craig – and that ment…?
Rosie – he said “excuse me sir, madam. I have just heard the good news. Congratulations.
Craig – oh so that’s what he said. Hang on how do you know French.
Rosie smirked.
Rosie – what can I say, im brilliant.
Craig smiled and took her hand again, and started to play with her ring.
Rosie – don’t even think about taking it off, because im never going to let you.
Craig – no I wasn’t, im just looking a beautiful ring, for my beautiful wife to be. That sounds odd doesn’t it.
Rosie – yeah, and you know what sounds odder?
Craig – what?
Rosie – Mrs Rosie Harris.
Craig smiled, and blushed a bit.
Craig – I like it, it has a ring to it.
Rosie – hum, its has 1 to many R’s in it.
Craig laughs before smiling at her. that sort of smile that she knows he is up to something.
Rosie – what?
Craig – well if you want I can just call you ‘the mrs’’.
Rosie – oh no you wont, because I am never going to be called ‘the mrs’’. It’s awful!
Soon there dinner arrives, after they pay with the money provided by her granddad and leave. Getting back into the limo and going back to their hotel. When their Rosie went up to her room, to tell her granddad of her engagement, and Craig went to use the hotel phone.
Craig – Hello there, could I speak to Angela Harris please.
Prison person – I shall just check.
About 5 minutes passed before somebody came back onto the phone.
? – Hello?
Craig – mum?
Angela – oh Craig my darling, how are you?
Craig – I great mum, quess where I am.
Angela – I hope you are in bourmeth.
Craig – no try Paris, I’m on holiday with Rosie and family.
Angela – oh dear that’s lovely are you having a good time?
Craig – yeah, erm mum I have something to tell you, you know that ring grandma gave me. The engagement one.
Angela – yes.
Craig – well I’ve given it to Rosie, as an engagement ring.
Angela – oh Craig, but that’s wonderful news. Lets me know when the wedding is, and I’ll ask the wardens if I can come.
Craig’s face dropped at the thought of him mum maybe not being at his wedding.
Craig – yeah, that would be gre…
Angela – oh Craig honey I’ve got to go, bye. Kisses
Then the line went dead and Craig sadly put down the phone, he walked back to his and Rosie’s room with tears in his eyes. He opened to door to see a contented Rosie admiring her ring. She looked up to see his face stained with tears. She simply walked up to him, took him into her arms.
Rosie – honey, it will be ok, I promise.
Rolls the coronation street titles.
PART 5
The coronation street credits roll into the image of Craig and Rosie snuggled up in a posh 4 poster bed next to each other, Rosie again admiring her ring, while Craig softly snored in a dazed sleep mode. His eyes still slightly red from crying last night. Rosie snuck out of bed, put on her dressing gown, and went through the connected door that lead to Sophie and her granddads room, luckily her granddad went out early so it was just Sophie, sound asleep in her bed. She walked over to Sophie’s bed, before gently pushing her arm to wake her.
Rosie – Sophie?
Sophie, being Sophie turned over with a grunt and tried to get back to sleep. So Rosie wondered back to her and Craig’s room, to find Craig gone from their bed. She shrugged her shoulder before going to her dressing table, and then two hands came up behind her and covered her eyes.
Craig – guess whom?
Rosie smirked, she knew exactly who it was, but she decided to have a little fun with her new fiancé.
Rosie – hum…Orlando bloom?
Craig – nope.
Rosie – Leonardo dicaprio?
Craig – nope.
Rosie – erm… could it be that annoying little man, who lives with the croppers, you know the one always looking at me…oh gosh what’s his name.
She smiles as she feels Craig lower his hands.
Rosie – ah mr Craig Harris, I never would have known!
Craig laughs at his fiancés slightly odd sense of humour, before kissing her.
Craig – good morning. Sleep well?
Rosie – oh very well thank you, what about you?
Craig – oh you know, I couldn’t complain.
She giggles before glancing over towards to clock, it read 9.23am.
Rosie – gosh Craig we have to be at breakfast in 7 minutes.
She got up out of her seat before rushing over to her suitcases, and picking out an outfit. While Craig just sat down at the dressing table, Rosie simply turns and stares at him.
Rosie – are you not going to get dress.
Craig looks bewildered.
Craig – well I was just going to go like this.
Rosie – Craig Harris! You cannot go down to breakfast in a fancy hotel, in your boxers!
Craig gets up out of the chair before walking towards her.
Craig – Mrs Harris! Are you complaining at this early stage?
She giggles for throwing him a t-shirt and pair of jeans.
Rosie – we will come back up later to get changed for the pool!
With that they both got changed into the breakfast clothes, and walked down to the hotel restaurant. They joined the other Webster’s and sat down at their table. After breakfast, they all got changed into their swimming gear and went down the pool.
Craig wearing simple black trucks with a white stripe down each side, Rosie in a hot pink and white bikini, an O’Neill, surfer chick sort of bikini.
As Craig sat on the side of the poll, Rosie had gone to get drinks for the pair of them. Sophie and her mom and dad were messing around in the pool. When Rosie returned she put the drinks down, the snuck up behind Craig and pushed him into the pool.
He surfaces about 20 seconds later, spitting and sputtering.
Craig – why you evil little madam!
Rosie shrieked as he clambered out of the pool and chased Rosie behind the apartment block out of site. Pinning her against a wall.
Craig – got you!
Rosie – not quite!
She ducked down out of his arms and ran back to the pool, before jumping in, quickly followed by Craig. While they are both under the water, she grabs him shoulder and pulls him into a kiss. Then they both have to come back up for air. Craig raps his arms around her waist. Rosie giggles as she sees Craig’s hair plastered against his face. She raises her hands, and softly pushes it back out of his eyes, and stares into them.
Rosie – you’ve got beautiful eyes, do you know that?
Craig – well my mother always said so.
She giggles again before pulling him into a hug. Then gagging noises came from behind them. Sophie.
Rosie – what is SO disgusting about a hug Sophie?
Sophie – you call that little sequence a hug, because I call it getting off, yet again that’s all you to do isn’t it. That’s a far as you pair dare to go.
Craig – oh we have gone further misses!
Sophie suddenly chocked on her drink.
Sophie – you mean you’ve…?
Rosie – why do you think I was locked in my room, New Year.
Sally – ok Rosie lets not bring that back up again shall we.
Rosie looked over at her mother who was sunbathing.
Rosie – yes mother dearest.
As she turned back to Craig, sally saw something glisten under neither the water, something that appeared to be on Rosie’s hand.
Sally – Rosie raise both of your hands out the water please.
She raised her hands, and sally saw the ring, the white gold glistening due to the water, and the diamonds due to the sun.
Sally took in a gasp of breath.
Sally – your engaged!?!
sorry its quite long, what do you think.
