Philip says, "John, we�ve decided we�d still like to go to Reno. Has everything else I asked for been done�? John says, �Yes it has Master Philip. There are two large suitcases in the storage compartment of the plane�. Philip smiles then says, �I can�t wait for Chloe to see this place�. John says, �She�s one lucky woman Master Philip because you are quite the romantic�.

Philip says, �I�m the lucky one John and Chloe deserves only the best�. John says, �To be young and in love�ahhh�I remember those days and it gets even better the longer you�re with the one you love�. Philip smiles then pats John on the shoulder and says, �SO John, what�s the ETA for Reno/Tahoe International�? He says, �Approximately 30 minutes so I suggest everyone get strapped in their seatbelts and prepare for a landing�. Philip says, �All right John. Thanks for everything�. He heads back to be with the others.

Philip walks over to Chloe and everyone else and says, �Well John says we need to get strapped in our seatbelts because the ETA to Reno/Tahoe International is approximately 30 minutes�. Chloe wraps her arms around Philip�s waist and says, �Oh I�m sooo excited! � I�ve never been to Reno or anyplace like it for that matter. I can�t believe we�ll be there in only 30 minutes�. Belle says, �We�re gonna have SOOO Much FUNNN�. Shawn says, �Well guys we�d better get strapped in because we�ll be there before we know it�. So everyone is seated and place their seatbelts on.

Philip is holding Chloe�s hand and says, �Well none of us have had any sleep since last night. Do you think we can handle being up for a couple of days�? Chloe looks at Belle and says, �Hey! Belle/I have pulled all-nighters before then gone to school and stayed up late the next night�. Philip raises his eyebrow then looks at Shawn and back at Chloe and says, �And what was the topic of conversation during these all-nighters�? Chloe raises her eyebrow then looks at Belle and back at Philip and says, �Wouldn�t you like to know Kiriakis�? He flashes those dimples and that smile and says, �I think I have a pretty good idea already, BUT if you want to tell me��

Chloe raises her eyebrow again and says, �My lips are sealed because there are just some things we women like to keep to ourselves�. Philip laughs and says, �Woman, you�re ornery�you know that don�t you�? She says, �Who? Moi' �? He laughs and says, �Yeah you�! He puts his arm around her neck then gently pulls her over closer to him and kisses her. Shawn says, �Phil, you guys are acting like an old married couple�. Philip smiles and says, �MMM�I like the sound of that�. Chloe says, �Me too�.

Brady/Nicole are too lost in their kiss to notice what anyone else is doing so when Shawn sees this he pulls Belle into a kiss. Philip looks at Chloe and says, �Love is in the air sweetheart�. She kisses his cheek and says, �It sure is Kiriakis�. Before he knows it she pulls him into a passionate kiss. John, the pilot is now on the intercom again and says, �Well everyone, it�s really snowing in Reno and I�m waiting for approval from the tower to land. They assure me it�ll be soon so be prepared for a not -so -smooth landing�. Philip, Shawn, and Brady hold onto their women then within 5 minutes the jet touches ground.

Chloe looks out the window as the jet taxis over to an area exclusively for private jets. She says, �Oh Philip, it�s so beautiful here. The only thing is that I don�t have a jacket or any warm clothes to wear while we�re here�. Philip smiles and says, �Baby I thought about that and everything's been taken care of�. She says, �What do you mean Philip�? He says, �Well Shawn/I found out what size clothes/shoes the two of you wear from my Mom, and your Mom. The two of them went shopping and bought all of the things they thought you�d need for this trip. SOOO there are two big suitcases filled with the things they bought for you. I was gonna keep this a secret but I might as well tell you. THEN I�m taking you shopping and you can buy anything you like�. Chloe says, �Phillllippp�.you�re spoiling me�. He says, �Chlooooeeee�.I love spoiling you. So get used to it�.

John/Rick walk out of the cockpit and John says, �Well everyone, have fun and Rick/I will be staying in Reno until it�s time to go. I�ve just heard from the tower and they informed me there may be a bad snowstorm coming in tomorrow evening so maybe we�ll get out of here before it hits. If not we may have to stay an extra day or so. Will that be a problem�? Philip says, �Well we have to go to school on Monday but it�s really no big deal. We were only expected to go half day since we�ll be going on our Christmas break�. John says, �All right then, Master Philip you have my cell phone number and I want you to call me if you need me�. Philip says, �Thanks for everything John. Thanks Rick�. They leave to do their inspection of the jet.

Before they�ve had a chance to leave the jet a couple of men come aboard. Philip says, �Hey Alan/Rod, how�s it going�? Alan says, �Well Master Philip, thanks to you, after we chauffeur you guys around this weekend we�ve been given a bonus. Mrs. K. is giving us a two-week all expenses paid trip to Hawaii�. Rod says, �Ohh, I can�t wait�. Philip says, �Wow! That�s terrific guys. Uh..where are my manners? Alan, Rod this is my beautiful wife-to-be Miss Chloe Lane Wesley, this is Belle Black, who I�ve known like forever, this is my nephew Shawn, this is my nephew Brady, and this is his girlfriend Nicole�. Rod says, �Nice to meet all of you, and especially your beautiful ladies. Uh well anyway, we just need to get your bags and put them in the trunk of the limo then we�ll be on our way�.

So they gather their things then Philip says, �Chloe Baby it�s really cold outside so I suggest you/Belle put your jackets on�. So Chloe looks in her bag while Belle looks in hers and they take the ski jackets out. Chloe smiles and says, �Wow! It looks like our Mothers DO know what�s in style and what�s not�. Philip says, �My Mother buys all of these fashion magazines and running Titan and Bella helps too�.

Chloe laughs and says, �Yeah Nancy�I mean my Mother is always sending away to "Victoria�s Secret" for�umm�Philip says, �And"? Chloe�s face turns two shades of red and she says, �Ummm..never mind�. Philip says, �Victoria�s Secret! For you or your Mother�? Chloe says, � My lips are sealed�. Philip/Shawn help Chloe/Belle on with their jackets then they pick up their things. Brady helps Nicole put her jacket on then puts his on as well then all of them head out of the jet. Alan/Rod take their bags out to the limo.

Everyone piles into the limo then they take off. The guys each have their arms wrapped around their ladies and Chloe raises her eyebrow and Philip says, �Baby, it�s not gonna work! I�m not telling you where we�re going from here�. She kisses his cheek then gently places her lips on his then pulls away. He says, �MMM�uh where was I�? Chloe says, �You were just about to tell ME..I mean US where we�re headed from here�. He says, �God you�re making it tough to keep this a secret from you, beautiful woman of mine�.

Belle says, �Well Phil, where ARE we going�? He quickly changes the subject and says, �Hey Brady/Nicole! What do you want to do? I mean..where were the two of you planning on staying while you�re here�? Brady says, �Well we hadn�t really thought about it. We figured there�d be plenty of rooms available�. Philip says, �Man! You thought wrong because this is the peak season, AND it�s Christmas/the holiday season. You can bet every hotel is booked solid�. Brady says, �Well what about the cabins or houses I�ve heard you can rent by the week or just for a weekend�? Philip says, �Well that�s a great idea BUT AGAIN, like I said this is the peak season and there�s usually a long waiting list to get into one of them�.

Brady says, �Well I don�t really know what we�re going to do then�. Chloe says, �Well it appears all of us are in the same boat. Where are we gonna stay�? Philip smiles and says, �Not to worry..that won't be a problem. That�s all I�m gonna say. My lips are sealed�. Chloe AGAIN raises her eyebrow causing everyone to laugh. Shawn says, �Phil, she�s not giving up until she gets what she wants�.

He laughs and says, �Chloeeeee Baby, my lips are sealed. I�m not telling you. You�ll just have to wait and see�. She gives him all kinds of little kisses all over his face then kisses his bottom lip then his top one. Philip feels warm from his head to his toes and can�t think. He hesitates for a minute then she looks into his eyes and says, �You drop-dead gorgeous hunk of a man of mine, you�d better tell me or I�ll have to take drastic measures�.

Alan/Rod and everyone are busting up laughing then Rod says, �Master Philip, we�re here�. Philip says, �Whew! Thank God! I hate to admit this but..Chloe says, �You were ready to tell me everything, weren�t you�? He changes the subject again and says, �Baby, take a look out the window and tell me what you see�. Shawn watches Belle�s face light up as Brady/Nicole are pleased at what they see.

Chloe can�t believe what she�s seeing. She hugs Philip and says, �It�s just beautiful here Philip�. He smiles and says, �Nothing is a beautiful as you are Chloe�. Shawn clears his throat to get Philip/Chloe�s attention then says, �Well don�t you think we should go inside where it�s warm�? Philip says, �Umm..yeah and I have a surprise once we do�.

They get out of the limo and Chloe just stands there and is amazed at how huge this log cabin is. In order to get into it one has to walk up six steps then the porch spans the entire outside of the cabin. The door is beautifully crafted out of pine and has a stained glass window in the upper part of it. There are large picture windows on both sides of the door. Philip stands there watching the expression on her face. His face lights up and his heart is warmed when he sees how very happy this has made her. He takes her by the hand and says, �Well everyone, what do you say we go inside and get something to eat�?

They walk inside to see a huge great room with a beautiful spiraling staircase leading up to the second floor. The furniture is all crafted out of pine and there�s a fireplace as they look straight ahead. The ceiling is really high and there are chandeliers hanging from it. There�s a couple of couches in the center of the room close to the fireplace that are far apart but facing each other with a beautiful blue oriental rug on the floor in between them. A large coffee table crafted out of pine is sitting on the rug in the middle of them. To the right is the kitchen that is very large. There�s an island in the center of the kitchen with barstools sitting around it.

Chloe says, �This place is just�it�s just so beautiful Philip. Who does it belong to�? He says, �Well actually it belongs to my parents but my Father told me when I got married it�d be my wife�s/mine. So it�s ours Chloe�. Shawn says, �Whoa! What I wouldn�t give to own a place like this�.

Belle says, �Well my Dad told me a long time ago that when I get married he�ll build my husband/I a house wherever we want it�. Shawn says, �That would be cool but I don�t want anyone thinking that I�m marrying you for your money�. Belle says, �Shawn everyone who knows you knows that�s not true. Besides what�s wrong with a woman having a little money and spoiling the man she loves�? He says, �I guess nothing but still�.

Philip says, �Well it looks like Maria has already left and all we need to do is put our stuff down then wash up and eat�. Chloe says, �I�m sooo hungry�. Philip says, �I�m starving�. Chloe says, �You�re always starving Philip. You�re a bottomless pit but it sure doesn�t show. I mean you�re so muscular and�. He smiles and says, �And what Baby�? She says, �Ummm I�ll tell you later Philip�. He says, �Ooh I can�t wait�.

Everything they can think of for breakfast is sitting within reach so the guys fill their plates while the gals only put a little food on theirs. They sit down at the large pine table over by the window overlooking the snow-covered meadow outside the cabin and start to eat.

Brady says, �Well what is everyone going to do after we eat�? Philip says, �Good question. Do we want to separate and do our own thing, or do we want to do things together�? Brady says, �Well Nikki/I want to do some gambling but you guys are too young. You have to be over 21 to gamble or use the "one armed bandits" here in Nevada. So I think we�ll call a cab and have them take us into Reno�. Philip says, �I forgot all about having to be 21. I'm really sorry Baby�. She says, �That�s all right Philip. There are plenty of other activities I can think of that are just as fun�.

He says, �Ummm�And what about you Shawn/Belle�? Shawn says, �Belle/I really want to go skiing after our food settles then later on this evening I heard that �Ricky Martin� is at Caesar�s Tahoe at 7:00 PM. If you/Chloe want to be alone then that�s fine with us, but it�d be really fun to go together�. Philip looks at Chloe and says, �Is that something you�d like to do Baby�? She says, �I�d love it if you�d teach me how to ski then later on go see �Ricky Martin� at Caesar�s with Shawn/Belle�. Philip says, �You�ve got it Baby�.

They eat then Brady gets up from the table and Philip says, �Hey Alan/Rod are out in the guest cabin and I�m sure if you asked them they�d be more than happy to take the two of you into Reno�. Brady says, �Thanks Phil. We need to change so where is everyone going to sleep tonight�? Philip says, � Well there are 3 bedrooms upstairs and 2 master bedrooms downstairs. Are you/Nicole planning on sharing a�a�. Nicole says, �Philip, what do you think? Of course we�re going to share a bedroom�.

Philip says, �Hey I was just checking�! Brady says, �Well �Tink� I guarantee you/Shawn won�t be sharing a bedroom as long as I�m around�. Belle says, �It�s none of your business what we do Brady�. He says, �Oh yes it is �Tink�. Chloe takes Belle over to the side and says, �Since there are two bedrooms down here we can say we�re gonna share one and maybe Philip/Shawn can do the same leaving Brady/Nicole alone on the second floor�. Belle says, �If we share a bedroom down here you can bet Philip/Shawn won�t let us sleep down here all by ourselves�.

Chloe raises her eyebrow and says, �That's exactly what I was thinking Belle�. So Belle says, �Chloe/I would like to share a bedroom down here if that�s all right with everyone�. Philip says, �That�s fine with me but I�m not gonna let the two of you sleep down here alone�. Shawn says, �I agree with Phil�. Philip says, �Well Shawn you can have the other bedroom and I�ll sleep on the couch. It�s really quite comfortable�.

Shawn says, �There�s no need for you to sleep on the couch Phil. You can have the bed and I�ll sleep on the floor�. Philip says, �Actually there are two beds in that bedroom�. Brady says, �Well now that�s settled we�re going to go get changed and leave�. Philip says, "Well we're gonna take the Tahoe and leave soon, so would you tell Alan/Rod I'll call them if we need them"? Brady says, "Sure Phil. We'll see you guys later". So he/Nicole go upstairs.

Belle says, �God! Having Brady around is worse than having my parents here with us�. Shawn says, �You can say that again�. Philip says, �Well if everyone is finished eating Maria will be here in about 30 minutes to clean up the mess. We might as well put our things in our rooms then get changed and go. You know I was gonna rent a place at Northstar but there are waay too many people there. SO we�ll just hop in the Tahoe and head over to the Mt. Rose Ski Resort where we can ski down the slopes of Mt. Rose because there are less people there�.

Chloe says, �Am I the only one who doesn�t know how to ski�? Philip says, �Yeah sweetheart but I�m planning on giving you private lessons and am sure you�ll do just great. AND if you fall, I�ll be there to catch you�. She smiles and says, �Ooh I like that part�. He says, �The falling or the catching�. She says, �Ummm..the catching�. He wraps his arms around her then kisses her. Belle says, �Well let�s get this show on the road while the weather is still nice�. So Chloe kisses Philip on the cheek and says, �Well I�d better go get dressed then I�ll be ready for my private lesson�. He says, �Oooh I can�t wait to give my beautiful new student her first lesson�.

Philip/Shawn place Chloe/Belle's bags in their room for them and leave. Chloe/Belle are taking their clothes off and Chloe says, �Wow! There�s a lot of stuff in this bag. Do we have to wear all of it�? Belle says, �Well Philip bought the really expensive outfits that don�t require wearing extra clothing underneath, so all we have to do is slip into these jumpsuits then zip them up. Then we have our ski jackets to wear as well as these gloves, and our ski boots�. So they put their jumpsuits on as well as a pair of hiking boots. Chloe says, �So we take the other boots and just put them on when we�re ready to go skiing�? Belle says, �That�s the plan�.

They are now ready and Belle says, �MMM..I can�t wait to be in Shawn�s arms tonight and�Chloe says, �You�d better not let Brady hear you say that�. She says, �Maybe Brady/Nicole will get snowed in and won�t be able to come back here and we can do what we want�. Chloe says, �MMM�I can�t wait to be in Philip�s arms tonight and�Belle says, �What a romantic place to be during the holidays and with the guys we love. Could it get any better than this�? Chloe is in a trance and Belle says, �Earth to Chloe�. Chloe snaps out of it and says, �Sorry Belle I was just thinking about Philip and�anyway, all I have to do is freshen up and brush my hair�.

In the meantime Shawn/Philip are getting ready and Shawn says, �Phil, I can�t wait to be alone with Belle tonight. Do you suppose we can get rid of Brady/Nicole somehow tonight�? Philip laughs and says, �Brady is worse than a Mother hen where his �Tink� is concerned. All we can do is hope they get snowed in or something�. Shawn says, �I don�t know who�s worse though, Brady or John/Marlena. You know they can be pretty intimidating�.

Philip says, �I know what you mean. Chloe�s Mom/ Craig have caused me a lot of sleepless nights not allowing me to see Chloe. BUT let�s not be negative, but think positively and maybe, just maybe we�ll have our women all to ourselves tonight without having to worry about Brady/Nicole being around. Hey are you ready�?

Shawn says, �Dude, all I have to do is put a little cologne on and comb my hair and I�m all ready to go skiing with my woman�. Philip says, �MMM�I�m looking forward to catching Chloe when she falls�. Shawn laughs and says, �I know what you mean Phil. We�d better get out of here and over to their room before the weather turns ugly�. They both look in the mirror then comb their hair. Philip splashes some cologne on then Shawn does the same. They head over to Belle/Chloe�s room.

Both Philip/Shawn run their fingers through their hair then Philip knocks on the door. Chloe answers the door and Philip says, �Ummm..uh I..I never knew a woman could look so beautiful in a jumpsuit. Chloe you�you take my breath away�. She says, �Well..umm you look pretty good yourself Kiriakis�. Belle walks over to the door and says, �Well what about little ole� me�? Shawn says, �You look�you look absolutely beautiful Belle�. She smiles and says, �Well are we just gonna stand here�? Philip says, �Baby, do you have your boots�? She says, �Yeah�. He smiles and says, �Just give them to me and I�ll put them in this big bag of mine�. She does and Belle gives her boots to Shawn to put in his bag. They go into the garage and get into the Tahoe and head to Mt. Rose.

Chloe is sitting in the front seat with Philip, while Belle is sitting in the back seat with Shawn. Chloe says, �Wow! I can�t get over how beautiful it is here�. Philip says, �It sure is sweetheart�. After driving for about 10 minutes he pulls into a parking space then turns off the engine. Shawn says, �Well, it looks like there aren�t as many people here yet�.

Belle says, �Let�s hope it stays that way�. Philip says, �I thought I�d rent everyone�s skis instead of using the ones I have at the house. SO let�s go do some skiing�! Philip/Shawn get out of the Tahoe then open the doors for Chloe/Belle. Philip grabs his bag while Shawn grabs his. He locks the doors then they walk up to the �Mt. Rose Ski Rental Shop�.

Philip/Shawn put their bags down by the bench Chloe/Belle are now sitting on. Philip kisses Chloe and says, �Baby, I�ll be right back with our skis/ski poles�. She says, �O.K. Philip�. Philip/Shawn go inside to rent the skis/ski poles. Belle says, �Well Chloe the first thing we need to do is put our neck warmer around our neck. Then we need to put our goggles/ski hat on, then put our gloves in the pocket of our jackets until after we put our ski boots on". So they do and Belle says, "All right now, all we have to do is put our ski boots on and we're all set". So they do then Shawn/Philip come back out with everyone�s skis/ski poles then lay them down as they sit next to Chloe/Belle and put their ski boots on.

Philip stands up and Chloe is thinking: God! Just when I think he can�t get any more gorgeous/good looking/�HOT� he does. MMM�if he only knew how good he looks in that royal blue jumpsuit he has on. It fits him like a glove and..MMM look at that chest and those muscles and� Philip looks at Chloe and says, �Baby are you all right�? She says, �Ummm�yeah I was just�just thinking how much fun this is gonna be�. Philip smiles and offers her his hand to help her up.

She takes it and he pulls her up and close to him. He says, �Well are you ready�? She raises her eyebrow and says, �Not yet! I need something first�. She pulls him into a kiss then after a few minutes breaks away from it and says, �MMM�I�m ready now�. Shawn says, �Belle/I are gonna go up in the ski lift then ski down so we�ll see you guys later�. Philip says, �All right you two, have fun�. Chloe says, �Have fun you two�. Philip says, �Baby I need to put our bags in a locker inside so I�ll be right back�. She says, �I�ll be waiting for you�. So he takes their bags and heads into the ski shop.

He walks out the door and sees her standing by the bench and is thinking: MMM�that royal blue jumpsuit sure fits her in all of the right places. It really fits her like a glove. My God! She gets more beautiful every time I look at her�. Chloe says, �Philip! Earth to Philip�! He says, �Um..sorry Baby. Let�s get that ski jacket on you then head over to the area over there where there aren't as many people�.

He picks up their skis/ski poles and they head over to a bench. He places their ski poles against the bench then quickly puts his on. He then gets up and places her skis down on the ground and says, �Baby, I need you to hold onto my shoulder then put your left foot in the ski then we need to make sure it locks into place. Then we�ll do the same thing with the right one. All right�?

She holds onto him then they do just that. He says, �Well are you ready for your first lesson beautiful�? She smiles and says, �What woman wouldn�t be ready for her own private lesson with the most handsome and totally �HOT� ski instructor, who just happens to be the man she�s gonna marry soon�?

Philip raises his eyebrow and says, �MMM�this ski instructor is gonna have a hard time concentrating on teaching his gorgeous, beautiful, and totally �HOT� student how to ski�. He pulls her royal blue knit cap over her ears then says, �Baby, you look adorable with this cap on�. He gently runs his finger across her cheek as he looks into her eyes then tenderly kisses her lips. He says, �MMM�ummm�now�where was I? Oh! I remember now! What I need you to do is use both ski poles to help keep you up�.

As she�s standing there she�s thinking: Falling could really be a good thing because I�ll be in his strong arms and�MMM�Philip. Just being near you makes me feel warm from my head to my toes and I get those butterflies in my stomach. I feel breathless and when you kiss me oh�there�s nothing like the taste of your lips on mine�She�s in a trance for a minute or so then quickly comes out of it when he says, �Baby, the first thing I want to teach you is the �snowplough�. It�s a v-position beginner�s use when they need to slow down or when you�re going downhill. So I want you to do like I�m doing�.

She now has her skis in �snowplough� position. He shows her how to place her skis perpendicular to the downhill or the �fall line� and to have her feet shoulder width apart. As he�s showing her this she almost falls and he quickly catches her. He�s holding onto her and says, �I�ve got you Baby. Not to worry�. She says, �Philip I�m such a klutz! I don�t know if I can do this�. He says, �That�s what everyone says at first. I have complete faith in you�.

She laughs and says, �I think you�ve got your work cut out for you Kiriakis. I�ll probably fall more than any beginner you�ve ever seen�. He says, �Hey I learned how to ski when I was very small and I did my fair share of falling. It�s easier when you�re a kid because if you fall you just get right back up and do it all over again. But as you get older you�re more scared of falling. But Baby I promise to do my very best to catch you when you fall�.

She says, �Well I�m ready if you are�. He�s really close to her and she can�t seem to concentrate because he smells sooo good and all she seems to be thinking about is having his arms wrapped around her and his holding her tight. He says, �Now I need you to bend your knees to a slight crouch like this. Then we need to line up your toes, knees, and shoulders vertically to maintain a balanced body position. Now lets turn our skis down the hill like this�.

She�s still having a problem concentrating on what she�s supposed to be doing and loses her balance. She starts to fall but he catches her only to fall to the ground with her lying on top of him. She looks into his baby blues then they both start laughing. He�s got snow all over his head and on his face. She gently wipes it away then says, �I..I�m really sorry Sir. I�I guess I wasn�t paying attention to what I was doing. How can I possibly make it up to you�?

He smiles then raises his eyebrows and says, �MMM�I�ve got a few things in mind but I�ll settle for this�. He wraps his arms around her tight then kisses her passionately. He breaks away and says, �Baby, you keep kissing me like that and the snow beneath me is gonna melt�.

She�s breathless and says, �MMM�we�d..we�d better not let my hubby-to-be know about this kiss�I mean, I don�t know what he�d do to you�. He says, �Well having the most beautiful woman I�ve ever seen lying on top of me and getting lost in those beautiful blue eyes of yours�and�and kissing these soft, warm, luscious lips of yours is definitely worth the risk�.

Chloe pulls him into another kiss and Shawn/Belle have made their run and are now standing a few feet away from them. Shawn says, �What have we here Belle? It looks like the SKI instructor has spent more time on his back and giving his student private lessons in the art of kissing than he has teaching her how to ski�.

Philip/Chloe break away from their kiss and Philip says, �Hey this instructor isn�t stupid. I mean�when you have the most beautiful student fall on top of you what do you think I�m gonna do�? Shawn/Belle both laugh then help Chloe to her feet. Philip gets up off of the ground and is now standing. Chloe holds onto him then Shawn says, �Well you two we�re gonna make another run and I think after that we�ll take a rest. Do you know what time it is�?

Chloe starts brushing the snow off of Philip�s body then he looks at his Rolex and says, �It�s 1:30 PM and we need to leave here by 2:30 PM so I�ll show Chloe a couple more things while the two of you make your run then we�d better go�. Belle says, �Sounds good. We�ll see you guys in a little bit�. Shawn laughs and says, �When we get back we expect to see the two of you actually skiing instead of lying flat on your back kissing your student Phil�.

Philip looks at Chloe and she says, �Ooh! Don�t tempt me. I may just have to fall again and let you catch me because I want another kiss like that�. Philip says, �Baby, you don�t have to fall to get a kiss like that�. Shawn says, �Come on Belle. Let�s leave these two lovebirds alone�. She laughs and says, �See you in a few guys�. Chloe says, �See ya� Belle�. They head back to the ski lift.

Philip says, �Baby let�s start where we left off�. She says, �MMM�I�d love to�. He raises his eyebrow and says, �MMM..I like the way you think� then gives her a kiss. He says, �All right now let�s do everything we did before only now I want you to put your weight on the ball of your feet then turn your knees in the direction you want your skis to turn. Then wait for your skis to turn and allow them to finish the turn then when the turn is done you are again perpendicular to the slope. He says, �It looks like you can stand up really well on your own now so watch what I do then I want to see if you can do it�. So he shows her what he wants her to do and stops right beside her.

She says, �Here goes nothing�. She practices doing what he showed her how to do then he says, �Now let�s repeat the process in the opposite direction then you can start linking your turns together without stopping. It�s okay to separate your skis into a wedge like this to stop. She smiles and says, �My oh so handsome ski instructor, will you please show me how to do this again�?

He skis away then comes back to her and stops. He says, �All right now you try it. I promise I�ll catch you this time if you fall�. So she tries it quite a few times..each time falling to have Philip catch her. The next time she tries it she actually skis over next to him but becomes a bit overconfident and loses her balance.

She starts to fall forward but he manages to catch her but they both fall to the ground again. He�s lying on his back and says, �Falling on top of your ski instructor can get you into serious trouble, you know�. She raises her eyebrow and says, �And why is that Sir�? He says, �Well because just being near you makes his heart beat out of control, and he feels warm from his head to his toes, and�and he may lose control�. She says, �Like before Sir�? He says, �Oh it gets even worse than before I mean he�he starts out giving you soft little kisses all over your beautiful face like this��.

He says, �MMM�and then he starts kissing your soft, sweet, warm lips like this�. Her heart is racing and she feels that warm sensation start from the tips of her toes all the way up to her face. He catches her bottom lip gently between his then sucks on it for a second then does the same thing to her top lip. This kiss leads to more kisses that grow in intensity. Philip/Chloe are both really startled when a little girl runs into his side with her skis. She says, �I..I�m sorry Sir. I�m not very good at this yet. I can�t seem to stop in time�.

Philip/Chloe look at one another and in a soft, gentle voice he says, �Aww�that�s all right. Don�t worry about it. I�m pretty tough you know�. Her Father shows up and says, �I�m really sorry. This is only her second day and her only problem is stopping in time�. Chloe smiles and says, �That�s all right. We WERE kind of in the way�. He says, �Well you two have a good day. We need to go before the storm comes in�. Philip says, �Yeah we need to be going soon too�. They say their goodbyes then leave.

Chloe says, �Are you all right Philip�? He says, �I don�t know�! She says, �Did she really hurt you�? He says, �Well I think what I need is a little extra TLC..you know you could kiss me on my side and make the pain go away�. She says, �Awww�my poor baby�. He says, �Yeah�I�m definitely in need of hugs and kisses from the woman I love but I guess that�ll have to wait�.

She kisses his cheek then says, �I promise I�ll kiss it and make it better later, all right�? His heart is racing and he says, �MMM�I love that idea. Let�s get up and take our skis off then wait for Shawn/Belle to come down the slope�. They are both standing now then head over to the bench to take their skis off.

Philip helps her take her skis off then takes his off. He says, �Baby, I�ll be right back with our bags. He kisses her cheek then heads into the ski shop with their skis/ski poles. He isn�t gone long and when he comes back he sets the two bags down and says, �Do you want me to take your ski boots off and put your other ones on�? Chloe says, �If it�ll make you happy to take them off then it�s fine with me�.

He smiles and says, �I�ll do anything for you sweetheart. I love you�. While he�s taking her ski boots off she�s looking at him and thinking: I�m so lucky to have him in my life. He�s so kind, gentle, loving, and understanding and would do anything for me. Thank you God for bringing Philip into my life�. He�s taken her ski boots off and puts her other boots on then gets up and sits down beside her.

While he�s taking his ski boots off and putting his other ones on Chloe gets up and goes over to the side of the road where the snow is piled about 6 ft. deep. She grabs a couple of handfuls of snow then forms them into a snowball. Philip gets up and heads her way only to be hit in the chest by a snowball. Chloe is laughing and he starts laughing as well and says, �Ooh woman you�re gonna get it�. She�s still laughing and starts to run away but slips and falls. She gets up and starts walking really fast. She turns around and sees that he�s made himself a snowball and looks like he�s gonna throw it at her.

She picks up another handful of snow then makes another snowball. They both throw a snowball at one another and hers hits him in the ear. His hits her on the chest and she says, �Philipppp�.you�ve had it now�! They each make another snowball and she starts to throw hers at him and he rushes toward her. He grabs her and says, �Miss Chloe Lane Wesley, soon-to-be Mrs. K. you�d better put that snowball down or I�ll��She says, �Or you�ll what�?

He doesn�t say anything and acts like he�s gonna put the snowball inside her jacket. When she tries to push him away she ends up falling backwards into the snow bringing him down on top of her. He looks into her eyes then wraps his arms around her. He rolls her over on top of him so she�s not on the cold, wet snow. She says, �MMM�you know what I want right now�? He flashes those dimples and that smile and says, �And what might that be my beautiful angel�? She says, �This�. She kisses him passionately then they hear laughter.

Shawn/Belle have finished their run and are once again standing over them. Shawn says, �Well Belle, it looks like they�re at it again. We may end up going to Reno by ourselves�. Philip hugs Chloe then she gets up off of him. They are now standing and both wipe the snow off of each other then Philip wraps his arms around her. He looks at his Rolex and says, �Wow! Perfect timing. We have 15 minutes to get back to the cabin then I think we should get ready. Is that all right with everybody�? Shawn hugs Belle and she says, �Sounds cool to me. I can�t wait to see Ricky Martin. He�s SOOO HOT�!

Shawn says, �What about me�? She says, �Well�..Shawn says, �Hey Phil, I hear Britney Spears is in town. Maybe while our ladies are watching Ricky we should go see Britney. Man she�s totally HOT�. Belle says, �Oh no you don�t Shawn Brady. I�m not letting you out of my sight�. Chloe raises her eyebrow and says, �And you�d better not even think about going to see Britney without me, if you know what�s good for you Philip�. He�s laughing and hugs her really tight then gets a serious look on his face.

He looks lovingly into her eyes and says, �Baby, Britney is HOT but nobody compares to you. You�re unique, you�re special, and �TOTALLY, TOTALLY HOT� and I love you with all of my heart�. He kisses her again and Belle says, �Earth to Phil/Chloe! We�d better get going or we won�t be able to get seats�. Philip says, �Well all right! Chloe/I will go get the Tahoe and pick you guys up in a few minutes�. Shawn says, �Okay Man. We�ll be waiting�. So they head back over to the bench and Philip picks up the bag and takes Chloe�s hand in his then they walk back to the Tahoe.

As they�re walking back to the Tahoe hand-in-hand Philip says, �Baby did you have fun today�? She says, �I had a great time Philip. I�d be happy just reading the newspaper with you just as long as we�re together. I�m never gonna take you or our love for granted�. He says, �Neither will I sweetheart�. She says, �I�m getting kind of excited to go into Reno then see Ricky Martin�.

Philip says, �Well just remember this! You can look but you can�t touch�. She says, �He has nothing on you Philip. You�re the whole package, you know�drop-dead gorgeous, handsome, sweet, kind, gentle, loving, and understanding, and��. He blushes and says, �And what�? She says, �Well you are an amazing kisser and you�re totally HOT�. He says, �Oh yeah�? She says, �Yeah��.then kisses him on the cheek.

They are now at the Tahoe and Philip throws their bag in the back then opens her door for her. He says, �Before you get in there�s something I need�. She�s leaning against the back door of the Tahoe and he takes her chin in his hands then kisses her tenderly on the lips. He says, �Baby I love you. I�ll love you forever�. She says, �And I DO love you Philip. I�ll love you forever�.

They smile at one another then he hugs her really tight. She steps up and into the passenger side of the Tahoe then he closes her door for her. He hops in the drivers seat then Chloe moves over next to him. He places his arm around her neck then drives over to get Shawn/Belle. Shawn throws their bag into the back then he/Belle get into the back seat. They head for the Kiriakis cabin.
