Philip breaks away from the kiss then says, �MMM�I could kiss you like this forever�. She hugs him really tight then says, �MMM�me too�. He looks at his watch then says, �Well it�s time�! She says, �What do you mean�? He takes her by the hand then says, �I need you to take a seat once again�. So she sits down then he gets down on bended knee then says, �Chloe Baby, this is from me to you with all of my love: He then says these words to her:

From the moment I first saw you at .Com I could see,

That you were hiding behind a fa�ade just like me.

You intrigued me and I felt this undeniable attraction,

So I did/said anything I could think of to get a response, any kind of reaction.

And no matter what I dished out you gave back to me and stood your ground,

And didn�t let me get away with anything as long as you were around.

I felt this need to be near you and to show you how much I truly cared,

But I noticed when I got too close to you you�d push me away and run scared.

But it didn�t matter how many times you lashed out at me to try and push me away,

Because these feelings I had for you only grew stronger each and every day.

Then that night when I ran after you and took off your glasses on the �pier� I see,

Two most unique, amazing, and beautiful blue eyes looking back at me,

I felt your love, felt your pain, felt your loneliness, felt this bond, this connection,

And I realized that the reason we felt this way was because we were destined,

To be together forever because you were the part of me that was missing and I�ve,

Finally found the woman of my dreams and with you by my side I feel so alive.

We�re like Romeo and Juliet because we�ve had so many obstacles thrown our way,

But no matter how difficult they were to overcome there was just no way,

That anyone/anything could destroy the deep love/passion we share,

And this kind of love only comes along once in a lifetime and is very rare.

We opened up our hearts to one another and are free to be the real you/me,

And we no longer have to worry about whether others like what they see.

Because of your love I�m finally free to explore who I am and who I want to be,

And all I want to do is hold you in my arms/in �your spot� where you�re meant to be.

I promise to always love you, cherish you, trust in you, and keep you safe/secure,

And I�ll never leave your side no matter what we may have to endure NOW or in the future.

You take my breath away and are the most beautiful woman I�ve EVER seen,

But your true beauty is on the inside and you deserve to be treated like a queen.

You are like a delicate lavender orchid that is so fragile and rare,

And I promise to be very gentle and give you tender love and care.

Chloe Baby, you know I love you with my whole heart, body, and soul,

And you�re the other half that makes me feel so complete and whole.

I promise that I�ll love you forever and that I�ll never,

Take you or our love for granted and will give you the best life ever,

And I�ll do everything in my power to make you happy forever.

You/I were �Meant to be� and our love will last an eternity,

So as I look into your beautiful blue eyes and am down on bended knee,

I just want to say that I love you, I need you, and want to spend the rest of my life,

With the woman I love more than life itself and I was wonderin� if you�d do me the honor and become my wife? Chloe Baby, will you marry me�?

Chloe is in tears and he takes her hand in his. He doesn�t say a word but looks lovingly into her eyes then she says, �Philip I�I can�t believe you asked me to marry you. I wasn�t expecting this but I�.Oh my God! Of course I�.oh Philip �YESSSS� I�d love nothing more than to be your wife. I�ve�I�ve dreamed about this for so very long and now it�s�it�s finally happening�I love you more than you�ll ever know Philip�.

Philip has tears running down his face then says, �Chloe Baby, you�you�ve just made me the happiest guy alive. I was so afraid you�d say �NO� and that you weren�t ready but I�m so glad I was wrong�. So he picks her up and off of her feet then swings her around then kisses her very passionately. He breaks away from the kiss then gently sets her down and wraps his arms around her waist. She wraps her arms around his back then looks into his eyes. He says, �MMM�.I love you so very much Chloe. We don�t have much time Baby�. She says, �What do you mean Philip�? He says, �Well, I wasn�t gonna tell you about this until we get there but I don�t want you to feel pressured in any way with what I�m about to propose�.

Chloe raises her eyebrow and says, �You already proposed so what else is there except�except�. Philip smiles and says, �I was wonderin� if�if you�d do me the honor and marry me tonight�? Tears of joy are running down her face and she hesitates for a second. He says, �I know this is sudden and if you�re not ready to get married this soon, I�ll understand. Like I said I don�t want you to feel pressured in any way�. Chloe kisses him gently on the lips then says, �As far as I�m concerned I�ve waited all of my life to be with the man of my dreams and I�d love to become your wife tonight. But the only question I have is how are we gonna get married without our parents permission�?

Philip hugs her really tight then says, �Well, I tried to think of everything and even had help from your Mom as well as mine. They both signed consent forms for us to be married and also gave us copies of our birth certificates. They also gave me some advice about well�you know�our �first time� and�. Chloe says, �MMM�I can�t wait to be married to you and to have you all to myself and�and to make love to you for the �first time�. I�m so glad we waited Philip because this will make our wedding night so very special�.

Philip kisses her then says, �Me too sweetheart. Just think: You�ll be Mrs. Philip Robert Kiriakis, or we can call you Mrs. K. Or Mr. & Mrs. Philip & Chloe Kiriakis. Chloe Kiriakis. How do you like the sound of that�? Chloe says, �Do you know how many times I�ve actually dreamed about being called by all of those names? I absolutely love the sound of them. But most importantly I love you. You are the man I�ve been dreaming about all of my life�.

He�s so very happy and says, �MMM�and you�re the woman of my dreams�.Before I forget I just wanted to tell you that my Dad doesn�t know about this marriage yet. He�s always wanted to give me/the woman I planned to marry this big fancy wedding at the Mansion. But Mom said that Dad will be very disappointed at first but will understand. She seems to think that once we�re married Brady will leave us alone. Dad/Mom really don�t want to have Brady arrested or anything and hopefully this will be the end of his obsession with you and nothing else will have to be done about him�.

Chloe says, �Well, none of that matters right now because all I want is to become your wife tonight. I want to have you hold me in your arms and make passionate love to me for the �first time�. He says, �MMM�I can�t wait! What do you say we get out of here and head for the airport�? Chloe says, �The airport? Where are we going�? He raises his eyebrow and says, �Now that�s for me to know and for you to find out when we get there�. She gives him little kisses all over his face and says, �But Philip. Can�t you just give me a teeny little hint�? He laughs then says, �Ummm�no! You�re just gonna have to wait beautiful wife-to-be of mine�.

He takes her by the hand then picks up his guitar and says, �Well we need to get out of here because we need to be on time for this flight�. So they walk hand-in-hand back to his car. He opens the door for her then she gets inside. He places his guitar in its case in the trunk then hops in the car and takes off. Chloe moves over close to him and lays her head on his shoulder. About half-way to the Salem Airport Philip says, �Baby, I think we have a problem. It feels like we have a really low tire. These are brand new tires and something just isn�t right here�.

He pulls over to a turnout on the side of the road then turns the engine off. He says, �It feels like the left rear tire is going flat. Please just stay inside the car while I check it out, all right�? She says, �Be careful Philip�. He takes off his jacket then lays it down in the seat and walks back to the rear left tire to see that it is now totally flat. He opens up the trunk then takes the jack as well as the spare tire out then places it alongside the car. She gets out of the car and he says, �Baby, it�s cold out here�. He walks over to his seat then takes his jacket and places it around her. He says, �Baby, I�m so sorry this happened but these tires are brand new. I just don�t understand this�. Chloe gently turns his face toward hers then says, �Philip, there�s no need for you to be sorry about anything. Things like this happen all of the time. Just look at it this way�.you can teach me how to change a tire so if I�m ever on the road and can�t get anyone to help me I can do it myself�.

Philip says, �Well, when you�re driving one of our cars you�re not gonna have to worry about having to change a tire or anything like that because we have 24-hour road-side service. I�d call them but by the time they get here I can have this tire changed and we�ll be back on the road. But I�d be glad to show you how to change one anyway�. So he takes his shirt off and she says, �Philip, it�s cold out here�. He kisses her cheek then says, �Baby, I�m pretty tough you know, but why don�t you just give me a kiss to warm me up�? She smiles then kisses him and he says, �MMM�.that kiss should keep me warm for a while�.

She stands there watching him as he places the jack underneath the rear axle then raises the back of the car up. He quickly removes the lug nuts then pulls the flat tire off. She�s thinking: MMM�look at those muscles and that chest and�.My God! Just looking at his muscular body makes me all warm inside�MMMM��.He then places the spare on the wheel then says, �So now all I have to do is place the lug nuts back on then tighten them down. Then just lower the car back down to the ground with the jack then remove the jack and place it, along with the flat tire in the trunk�.

He stands up then picks up the tire and places it in the trunk then pulls out some hand wipes and a towel. He walks over to her and she starts laughing. He smiles and says, �What�s so funny? Do I have grease on my face or something�? She takes a hand wipe then looks at him and says, �Be still so I can wipe this grease off of the tip of your nose�. He says, �Hmmm�how did that happen�? She gently wipes it off then says, �Probably because after you finished changing the tire I saw you rub the end of your nose with your finger�.

He says, �Well I�ll have to do that more often to get some TLC from the woman I love�. She kisses him then he says, �Do you see any more grease on me? I need to put my shirt back on and certainly don�t want to get married in one that has grease all over it�. She loves the thought of checking his upper body for signs of grease but finds none. She says, �I don�t see any grease anywhere else�. She gives him his shirt then he puts it back on. He slowly unzips his pants then pulls them down just enough to tuck it in then zips them back up again. Her face is flushed and her heart skips a beat just at the sight of what he�s done. Philip says, �Chloe Baby, are you all right�? She takes a deep breath then swallows and says, �Ummm�yeah Philip I�m fine�.

He smiles because he knows what he just did had an affect on her but chooses to say nothing. He opens her door for her then she gets in. He closes her door then gets in the car and relaxes in the seat for a minute. He says, �Baby, move over close to me. There�s something I need to give you�. So she does then he wraps his arm around her neck and kisses her. He says, �I love you Chloe. Thanks for being so loving and understanding. Are you ready for this flight of ours�? She says, �As long as it�s with you I�m ready for anything�. He turns the engine back on as she lays her head on his shoulder then they head for the Salem Airport.

Shawn/Belle have been patiently waiting in his truck for about 30 minutes and he says, �Gee I wonder what happened to Phil and Chloe? They�d better get here within the next 10 minutes or we won�t be going anywhere�. Belle says, �I was sooo hoping to go on this trip but something major must have happened or they�d be here by now�. Shawn says, �Well why don�t I get our bags then we�ll lock the truck up and board the plane. Maybe by the time we do that they�ll be here�. Belle agrees then they do just that.

Philip has now pulled into the Airport parking lot. He gets out and opens the door for Chloe. He looks at his watch and says, �Whew! We made it just in the nick of time. Let me get my briefcase then lock the car up�. Chloe looks around and sees Shawn�s pickup sitting in the parking lot and says, �Hmmm�did Shawn have to pick someone up from the Airport tonight�? Philip says, �Ummm�uh I don�t think so. Are you getting excited about our trip and where I�m taking you�? She smiles then wraps her arms around him and kisses him very passionately. Hey breaks away and says, �Whoa! We could get arrested for kissing in public like this�. He hugs her really tight then presses the button on his remote key to lock the car. He picks up his small briefcase then takes her hand in his. They walk hand-in-hand to the plane.

Shawn/Belle are now seated and John, the Kiriakis Pilot has Rick, the co-pilot make sure that Philip and Chloe are safely on board. Philip lets Chloe go ahead of him then Rick says, �Well Master Philip, we were worried you weren�t going to make it. What happened�? Philip says, �Well, I just had four brand new tires put on my car and one of them had a flat. I ended up having to change it or we never would�ve made it here on time�. Chloe sees that she/Philip aren�t the only ones on the plane tonight. She walks over to see who it is and can�t believe her eyes. Belle can�t stay still for another minute then gets up and says, �Chloe!!!!!! I�m soooo glad you guys made it on time or we would�ve never been able to go on this fabulous trip Philip has planned for you�.

Chloe hugs her then says, �Belle Black and Shawn Brady, you sure did a good job of keeping Philip�s little secret. Belle says, �Well, I have to tell you that I only found out about it when Shawn/I left Gino�s Pizzaria. I guess the guys didn�t trust that I could keep this from you for very long�. Philip laughs then says, �Well, we know how you women love to talk and figured it might just slip out and I couldn�t take that chance. I wanted this to be a total surprise for Chloe�.

Rick says, �Now that everyone is safely aboard, why don�t you take your seats and get ready for take-off�? So Philip/Chloe sit down in the long seat by the window right next to one another and he buckles her up. Shawn/Belle are sitting on the long seat facing Philip/Chloe and Shawn buckles Belle up then he/Philip buckle up. Philip puts his arm around Chloe then she says, �So where did you say we were going�? Philip, Shawn, and Belle start laughing and Belle says, �Chloe, I don�t think raising your eyebrow up then giving Philip those little kisses all over his face is gonna work this time�.

Chloe looks at Philip then says, �Are you sure you don�t want to give me just the tiniest hint�? He smiles then pulls her into a very passionate kiss. Shawn looks at Belle then pulls her into a passionate kiss as well. They�re all a little startled when they think they just hit a little turbulence. This frightens Chloe and she says, �Philip! What�s happening�? He hugs her tight then looks into her eyes and says, �We probably just hit a little turbulence and everything should be back to normal in a few minutes�.

Belle says, �Well Philip, did you remember to bring your wedding rings�? Philip gets really nervous then picks up his small briefcase and opens it up. He moves the large envelope out of the way then sees the little blue box sitting there. He lets out a huge sigh of relief then says, �I knew I put it in here but it sure doesn�t hurt to double check�. Belle says, �Chloe, you/Philip are so lucky to have your parent�s permission to get married. I wish Shawn/I did�! Shawn says, �Well Belle, you never know what might happen tonight. Anything is possible�.

Philip/Chloe look at one another then Chloe says, �Are you two? Shawn are you two planning on getting married tonight too�? Just as Shawn starts to answer they feel what seems to be more turbulence. Philip holds Chloe tight then Rick, the co-pilot walks out of the cockpit with a gun held to his back. Philip/Chloe and Shawn/Belle can�t believe their eyes. Rick says, �I�m�I�m really sorry Master Philip. They said they�d kill both John/I if we said anything�. The man with a ski mask on and holding the gun to his back says, �Well�well�well�will you look at the lovebirds. You didn�t think you were going to get away from me that easily did you Chloe? What about you Uncle Phil? Oh and �Tink� if you think you/Shawn are going to get hitched you�d better think twice�.

Belle says, �Oh my God Brady. You�ve gone totally off the deep end. How could I have been so blind when everyone was telling me you were acting crazy�. Another person walks out of the cockpit then pulls off the ski mask and says, �Well little spoiled, rich Philly boy you should�ve never tried to keep your Father/I apart. Now dear old Dad is going to pay dearly if he ever wants to see you or your precious Chloe again. Oh and Belle/Shawn I�m really sorry the two of you had to be involved but hey, what are friends for�?

The plane starts to do a nosedive then Brady says, �Who�s flying the plane�? Nicole says, �Oh my God Brady, you knocked the pilot out�.

Brady, Nicole, and Rick have been thrown towards the cockpit as the plane goes into a nosedive. Chloe and Belle are screaming as Philip and Shawn are holding onto them really tight. Philip and Shawn both look at one another with fear in their eyes. Chloe says, �Philip�Philip I�m scared�. He says, �Chloe�Chloe Baby every�everything will be�be all right�. Belle screams again then Shawn says, �Calm..calm down Belle. Please�we�ll get out of this�.

Brady grabs Nicole�s foot with one hand then grabs onto the leg of the bar with the other. Brady is having a hard time holding onto Nicole while Rick has been thrown into the cockpit and hits his head against the Pilot�s chair. He wraps his arms around the base of the pilot�s chair then sees that John, the Kiriakis�s chief pilot has passed out. He knows they�re losing altitude rapidly and if he doesn�t do something quick they�ll crash.

Nicole�s more scared than she�s ever been in her life. She yells out, �Brady�you�you idiot�why did you�you have to knock the pilot out? That�.that was�wasn�t in the plan�. He yells, �I�I didn�t do anything to the pilot Nikki. Some�something must be�be wrong with him�. Brady�s life flashes before his eyes and he�s thinking: This wasn�t�wasn�t supposed to happen God�please don�t�don�t let us die. I�I promise I�ll ch�change�.

Rick tries to make his way into his chair without any luck but sees that John has just come to. He yells, �John! John! Wake up�! John can�t believe his eyes but quickly gets his bearings and grabs the yoke and begins pulling it back. He realizes that the plane is still at full throttle so he continues to pull back with his right hand while deftly using his left hand to manipulate the throttles. He then brings the plane out of the dive to straight and level flight.

Rick says, �Thank�thank God you woke�woke up John. My God that was close�. Rick slowly gets up then falls into his co-pilot�s chair and passes out. John looks over at Rick and sees all of the blood running down his face and that he�s unconscious so he puts the plane on auto- pilot. He gets up and goes over to Rick then wipes the blood away from his face. He sees a gash on the top of his head as well as a big knot on it and yells, �Can someone bring me the First Aid Kit�?

Brady stands up then lifts Nicole up. She wraps her arms around his neck then says, �My God Brady! I�ve never been so scared in my entire life. Please just hold me�. He does then looks around to see if everyone is all right. He hugs Nicole really tight then says, �Thank you God�!

Philip hugs Chloe then looks in her eyes and says, �Chloe Baby, are you all right�? She has tears in her eyes and says, �I�I was so afraid Philip! But when you wrapped your arms around me and I felt your love I just�.just thought about our wedding and�and then it was all over. I don�t know what I would�ve done if you hadn�t held me like you did. I love you so much Philip�. He says, �I�ll always be here for you and keep you safe/secure. I love you Chloe�.

He gently kisses her then says, �Shawn, Belle�are you guys all right�? Belle is still shaking and Shawn says, �Belle! Are you all right�? She says, �Shawn I�I thought we were gonna die and�oh God! I�ve never been so scared in my life�. Nicole says, �Brady I�ll..I�ll take the First Aid Kit into the cockpit and see what I can do. I think we need to apologize to everyone for what we�ve just done�. Brady kisses her cheek then says, �All right Nikki. I�ll tell them�. She leaves to take care of Rick.

Brady walks over to Belle/Shawn and Philip/Chloe and before he can say a word both Philip and Shawn unbuckle their seatbelts and get up. Philip grabs Brady by his shirt- tail then punches him in the jaw knocking him to the floor. He puts his left knee on Brady�s chest then starts to punch him again but Shawn grabs Philip�s arm. Philip breaks loose from the hold Shawn has on him and says, �You Son of a bitc*! My God Brady! You almost got all of us killed because of this obsession of yours with Chloe. This has GOT to stop�!

Shawn says, �You are one sick son of a bitc* Brady. I mean�don�t you even care about Belle and what this is doing to her? And man�Phil and I are family. What the hel* has happened to you�? Brady tries to get up but Philip presses his knee harder against Brady�s chest then Brady says, �Just�just let me get up and I�ll explain why Nikki/I did what we did�. Philip and Shawn are still so very angry but look over to see Belle/Chloe are holding onto one another and Belle says, �My God Brady! I STILL can�t believe you�d endanger all of our lives like this. There�s absolutely NO excuse for your behavior. As far as I�m concerned I don�t have a brother anymore�.

Brady is very hurt by what Belle just said and says, �Please �Tink�! You don�t understand! Please don�t say you no longer want me to be your brother. You just have to let me explain�. Philip says, �You�re lucky Chloe/Belle are here or I�d put the hurt on you for the hel* you�ve put us through. Get your as* up and start explaining�. So Brady wipes the blood away from his lip then gets up. He starts to walk over to Belle/Chloe then Philip pushes him down into the chair nearby and says, �I don�t trust you and want you to stay away from both Chloe/Belle. Do you hear me�? Brady says, �Chill Phil. Just listen to what I have to say�.

In the meantime Nicole helps John take care of Rick who has just come to. John looks into Rick�s eyes and sees that they appear to look normal then says, �You had me worried. Thank God you�re all right�. Rick says, �Didn�t..didn�t I tell you I had a hard head? I�m pretty tough you know�. John smiles then says, �I know you are buddy�. Nicole says, �John�Rick�I�m really sorry about all of this�. John says, �You�ve got a lot of explaining to do Miss Walker. I�m going to call Mr. K. right now and let him know what�s going on�! So he picks up the phone and starts to call the Kiriakis Mansion and Nicole says, �Please John! Don�t do that until you hear what Brady/I have to say. Please I beg you�. John says, �Well if it weren�t for Master Philip and his surprise for Miss Chloe and their friends I�d have no problem calling him. This had better be good�. So Nicole says, �Just follow me and I�ll let Brady explain everything to you�. So Nicole walks out of the cockpit first then John and Rick follow.

Nicole picks up the gun off of the floor then John grabs her arm and takes it away from her. She says, �Take a good look at that gun John. Tell me what you see�. So he does then says, �It�s a water pistol. My God it looked so real�. She says, �Now everyone please listen to what Brady has to say. Please�! Chloe walks over to Philip and wraps her arms around his waist. Belle does the same to Shawn then Philip says, �Well! Spill Brady. This had better be good�!

Nicole walks over to Brady then kneels down beside him. He says, �First of all I want to tell all of you that we�re sorry for what�s happened, but I swear I didn�t do anything to John. Nikki/I didn�t want to hurt anyone. We just wanted to get back at Grandpa Vic/Kate. We wanted them to sweat a little when we called from the jet and told them that we�d hijacked it. We acted like we�d gone totally off the deep end so when Gramps asked to talk to you to see if you were all right you�d tell him how crazy the two of us were acting. He�d get all scared then do whatever we asked him to do�.

Philip says, �Do you have any idea who you�re dealing with Brady�? If we hadn�t had this happen and you/Nicole would�ve gone through with your plan my Dad would�ve had you hunted down. I can�t believe how stupid the two of you are! And another thing: How did you know we were leaving tonight? Nobody knew except my Mom/Chloe�s Mom. Shawn�s parents gave their consent then Belle left a message for her parents where she�d be�. Brady says, �First of all Gramps wouldn�t hurt me. I�m the only thing he has left of my Mother. Now to answer your other question: �Well, to make a long story short Nikki still has a key to get into the Titan building and she was going to try and get some important business papers out of Kate�s desk to use against her. She forgot that Kate locks her door as well as her desk drawer every time she leaves her office but knows that Marie has keys to both of them in her desk. She knows how to get into Marie�s locked desk and while looking for the key she stumbled across this note from Kate to Marie. It basically said that you guys were boarding the Titan jet around 10:00 this evening and were headed to Reno, Nevada to get married. It also said that Victor doesn�t know about this and for Marie not to tell him�.

Philip says, �Well, how did you manage to ditch the PI�s Dad hired�? Nicole says, �Oh I have my ways Philip. Trust me. Brady was in disguise and since I was the President of Titan for a while the people here at the Airport didn�t even question me when I told them my friend/I were boarding the Titan jet and we were expecting you/Chloe to join us. I just told them we wanted to surprise you. But both Brady/I were totally surprised when Belle/Shawn boarded the plane but we decided to go ahead with our plan anyway�. Belle says, �You scared us half to death with that gun. I don�t care if it�s just a water pistol. None of us knew that. I�ve never been so scared in my life�.

Brady says, �I�m really sorry �Tink�. Philip says, �Well, what about my tire? Did you have anything to do with that�? Brady says, �I swear to God I didn�t do anything to your tire. I realize I�ve been acting crazy but that�s one thing I�m not responsible for�. Nicole says, �I know none of you really trust us because we�ve done some pretty awful things to you as well as others but we�re trying to change. Brady/I are in love and who knows? Maybe we�ll change for the better because we love one another�. Philip says, �I still don�t trust either one of you and you�re just gonna have to prove to everyone that you�ve changed�.
