Brady is now in the parking lot behind .Com and decides to go inside. He looks around and doesn�t see anyone so he goes back outside. He�s thinking: Where the hel* is that bitc? I know she�s not with Uncle Phil, so what the fuc* is going on here? Well, I�ll just go back to Chloe�s house. I�ll park on Rose Avenue like I did last time and nobody will see me�. So he gets in his Jeep and heads for the Wesley residence.

He�s now made it and parks along Rose Avenue and notices that a taxi is waiting on the street in front of Chloe�s house. He sees that Nancy has walked out to the taxi with Craig. They kiss then Craig gets into the taxi and leaves. Nancy looks around then goes inside. Brady laughs and is thinking: Brady Black, you are the master�the master of manipulating people. Not only do you have Marlena, Dad, Belle, Chloe, and Philip where you want them, but both Craig/Nancy.

You�ve got Craig/Nancy against Philip, and thinking you�re just about IT, which of course is absolutely true! Brady you are THE best looking stud around Salem and Chloe knows it�Hmmm�looks like Craig is going out of town to some convention or something. I think I�ll just drive over there and see if Chloe�s made it home yet. I�ll have to put on the old sappy Brady facade for Mama Wesley then she�ll let me in�. So he decides to walk over to Chloe�s house.

He goes up to the door and rings the doorbell. Nancy is in the kitchen and is thinking: Maybe Craig forgot something. He must�ve forgotten his keys to the door�. She quickly goes to the door expecting Craig and is very surprised to see Brady back so soon. He smiles and says, �Is Chloe home yet? I�ve really been worried about her�. Nancy says, �Brady, you were here not 30 minutes ago. I told you she was at the Salem Library doing research and she didn�t tell me when she�d be home�.

He says, �She�s not at the Salem Library or anywhere in town. She�s not with Uncle Phil either because I just came from there. Maybe she slipped in the door and ran up to her room without you knowing it�. Nancy says, �Brady, I told you Chloe is not here. I�ll tell her you stopped by and have her call you when she gets in, if it�s not too late�.

Brady is visibly angry and he pushes Nancy out of the way and runs up to Chloe�s room. The look in his eyes as he pushed her aside sent chills running down her spine. She has an awful feeling in the pit of her stomach and a lump in her throat. Brady practically turns Chloe�s room upside down then runs down the stairs and out of the house, not saying a word to Nancy. She quickly closes the door and her heart is beating a mile a minute. She looks out the window and sees a very angry Brady kicking their trashcan around the yard then walking over to Rose Avenue. Nancy sees that he�s now in his Jeep and slowly lurking about. She makes sure that he doesn�t see her peeking out the window. She sees him take off and is very scared for Chloe.

Nancy is thinking: My God! Brady is obsessed with Chloe. The look in his eyes says it all. Brady is not the guy we think he is, and I�ve got to find Chloe and warn her about him�. She picks up the cordless phone and calls the Black residence. Belle answers the phone and Nancy says, �Belle, is Chloe with you? She was supposed to go to the Salem Library and do research but Brady was just here and said she isn�t there�.

Belle says, �Mrs. Wesley, I haven�t seen her since she left school with Philip. Is she with Philip�? Nancy says, �Brady says he was just at the Kiriakis Mansion and says Philip is home. Belle, can I speak to either one of your parents�? Belle says, �Unfortunately you can�t Mrs. Wesley. They just went out of town and don�t want to be disturbed unless it�s a matter of life and death. They needed some time alone�. Nancy says, �Thanks Belle�. They hang up.

Kate walks in the door. She walks by the study and notices Victor pacing the floor. She goes over to him and says, �What�s wrong Victor? Has something happened to Philip�? Victor has tears in his eyes and says, �I never realized until tonight just how deeply we�ve hurt our Son�. Kate says, �My God Victor, what�s happened to Philip�? Victor says, �To make a long story short, his whole world crumbled around him because of the two of us not being able to get along. We�ve used him to get back at each other and Philip has been caught in the middle. He�s felt so alone because the two of us were so worried about the company and fighting among ourselves leaving him alone to fend for himself. So he finds Chloe, and she�s the one person he loves more than anything in this world and I�m the one responsible for taking her away from him. I thought she wasn�t good enough for him and had Brady do everything in his power to break them up even before the Last Blast Dance. But Kate, I never meant for Brady to do it the way he did. I never knew how ruthless my Grandson really is�. He then tells her the rest of the story.

Victor says, �Kate�it broke my heart when Philip told me not to worry about the cut on his mouth because he�d take care of it himself like he always does. I had no idea he felt so unloved and alone. We almost lost him for God�s sake and I�m never going to take him for granted any more. Without Philip and the ones I love in my life, it means nothing�all of this money and power means absolutely nothing"!

Philip is the sweetest, most kind, gentle, loving, and understanding Son a Mother/Father could ask for. Despite everything he�s been through, he�s grown into a very strong young man and stands up for what he believes in. I�m very proud of our Son, Kate. I�ve ALWAYS been proud of him�I�ll do whatever I have to do to ensure his happiness. I�ll do as you asked me to do in Puerto Rico�I promise I�ll do everything I can to rebuild our relationship even if it�s only as friends. Philip needs us now more than ever and we need to stand together as a family�.

Kate gently places her hand on Victor�s cheek and says, �Are you saying what I think you�re saying Victor? You want to try and get what we had back�? Victor says, �Yes, and I�ll even go so far as to admit that after everything we�ve done to hurt one another, I still love you Kate. I guess I always will, no matter what. I�ve realized that I�m more to blame for our relationship ending than you were Kate�.

Kate has tears in her eyes and says, �You know Victor, I�ve always loved you and always will, no matter what. So I�m willing to take this slow and maybe this time we�ll get it right�. He gently wipes the tears away from her face then kisses her on the cheek and says, �Please don�t cry Kate. You know how I hate to see you cry. I�m sorry for every hurtful thing I�ve ever said/done to you�. Kate says, �Me too Victor, me too�.

Philip looks into Chloe�s eyes then rolls over on top of her. He kisses her very passionately and they end up rolling over and over on the bed. Their passion is unleashed and their hearts feel like they�re racing out of control. Their bodies are on fire and each feels breathless and has to come up for air. He says, �Chloe�Chloe baby I want you so badly but we can�t�. She looks into his eyes and he can see her desire for him but says, �Tell me again Baby�.

She runs her fingers through his hair then looks into his eyes and says, �And what do you want me to tell you Philip�? He raises his eyebrow then smiles and says, �Miss Chloe Lane Wesley, you know what I want to hear�. She smiles and says, �I DO love you, I DO love you, I DO love you with all of my heart, body, and soul Philip�. He starts talking and she places her lips gently on his and he can�t fight his desire to continue kissing her.

As they continue kissing the phone rings but neither is aware of it as they are in their own world. But they are both startled when they hear the fear in Nancy�s voice as she says, �Henderson, is Mr. Kiriakis there? I need to talk to him. This is an emergency�. Philip/Chloe both get up off of the bed as he holds her in his arms while they listen.

Henderson says, �Mr. K., Mrs. Nancy Wesley is on the phone and says she needs to speak to you and says it�s an emergency�. Victor picks up the phone and says, �What has my Son done this time that you�re so upset about�? She�s shaking and says, �Victor, is Chloe there by any chance�? He says, �Not that I know of Mrs. Wesley. You sound really frightened�. She says, �Because I am! Craig went out of town to a convention about a half an hour ago and Brady showed up again after I told him Chloe was at the Salem Library doing research and I didn�t know when she�d be home. He said he�d been to the Library as well as your place and she was nowhere to be found. I told him she STILL wasn�t home and I�d have her call him when she got in if it wasn�t too late, but��

Victor says, �But what Nancy�? She hesitates and starts crying and says, �Brady pushed me out of the way and ran upstairs and ransacked Chloe�s bedroom looking for her. Then he ran back downstairs and out of the house without saying a word to me. He went outside and was so angry he started kicking our trashcan all over the yard. I thought about calling the Police but he left in a rage. I called the Penthouse hoping to find Chloe at Belle�s, but Belle said she hadn�t seen Chloe since Philip took her home from school. So I asked to speak to her parents. Belle said they're out of town and don�t want to be disturbed unless it�s a matter of life and death because they needed some time alone�.

I know Brady is your Grandson and I�m sorry for what I�m about to say, but he�s got some serious problems and is obsessed with my daughter. The look in his eyes when he pushed me out of the way sent chills running down my spine, and a really sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I hate to admit this but Craig/I were totally fooled by Brady. He had us thinking Philip was the bad guy, when it wasn�t Philip at all. It was Brady. Victor I�m not only afraid for Chloe but for Philip as well. I think he�ll try to hurt her if she rejects him and hurt Philip if she continues seeing him�.

Victor says, �I�m sorry Brady frightened you and I�m very concerned about his jealous/obsessive behavior towards Chloe. This is all my fault because I thought your daughter wasn�t good enough for Philip and had Brady do everything to keep them apart, but I plan on taking full responsibility in making sure that he doesn�t harm either Chloe or Philip. I misjudged your daughter and if it weren�t for her love for Philip/his love for her he never would�ve come back to us. I�ll send Henderson upstairs to see if Philip knows where Chloe may have gone, so hold on for a minute�.

Victor sees Henderson walk by and says, �Henderson, can you please go up to Philip�s room and tell him I need to see him right away�? Henderson says, �All right Sir. I�ll do just that�. So he leaves the study and heads up the stairs.

Philip/Chloe look at one another and she says, �Philip, I�m really worried about my Mother since Craig is out of town. Do you think Brady will harm her�? Philip says, �My Dad will hire someone to watch over her so don�t worry. Besides, when we get to where we�re going you can call and let her know you�re all right, OK�?

She smiles and says, �I love you Philip�. He says, �And I love you Chloe. Now we don�t have much time. Grab a couple of those pillows off of the bed and I�ll get the bag I�ve already packed with the things we�ll need�. She says, �Are we going to your secret hideaway�? He says, �Yes we are. Is that all right with you? Or do you want to go home�? She says, �I don�t want to leave you Philip. Please, let�s just go before Henderson gets here�.

He kisses her cheek then she grabs the pillows and the comforter off of the bed. They leave and get into the elevator. Henderson sees them and Philip tells him of their plan then what he wants him to tell his Father. So Henderson agrees as Philip/Chloe leave. Henderson heads down the stairs to go back into the study.

Philip now has the bag on his shoulder as the elevator takes them down to the wine cellar. Chloe can�t believe her eyes. She says, �My God Philip! I�ve never seen anything like this. I knew you were rich, but I guess this kind of puts it into perspective of how very wealthy your family really is�. He kisses her then says, �But none of this means anything to me Chloe. I�d give it all up in a heartbeat, just to know that you love me and want to spend the rest of your life with me�.

She kisses him then he says, �Baby, I�ll give you a proper hug and a kiss then we can talk after we get to my secret hideaway, all right sweetheart�? She smiles and says, �All right Philip�. He takes her into a room filled with kegs of beer. She follows him down into another room filled with wine on racks covering every wall. He walks over to the left and takes a bottle of wine out of the rack and pushes a button that causes the empty wall right next to it to open up.

She can�t believe her eyes and says, �Oh my God! Philip I can�t believe this. I thought walls opening up like this only happened in the movies�. He smiles and says, �Me too Baby. You should�ve seen Henderson�s and my face when we came down here one day and I took a bottle of wine out of the rack. I don�t know why, but something made me look behind that bottle of wine and down towards the bottle of wine below it. I pushed the button and the wall opened up and both Henderson/I had a hard time believing it. Anyway, he�s the only one that I know of, besides me that knows this tunnel exists. I really don�t think my Father knows about it at all�.

Chloe says, �Where does it lead Philip�? He smiles then says, �You�ll see in a few minutes but we need to hurry�. So she follows him down this tunnel for less than a mile. Light is filtering into the tunnel as she sees stairs leading upward. He climbs up them then opens the hatch. It�s still light enough outside to see everything but he has a flashlight in his pocket anyway. He quickly gets out and pulls his bag up and outside with him. He takes the pillows and comforter from Chloe then she climbs the stairs and out into the open. She can�t believe her eyes. She hugs Philip and says, �This place is absolutely beautiful Philip�.

He kisses her then says, �I just love it here. It�s so peaceful and so very beautiful this time of year�. Dad knows about this place but I don�t think he�s ever been out here. I'm sure he doesn't know about the tunnel and that I come here when I need to be alone. I�ve been coming here a lot lately because I�she says, �I know Philip. Because you felt so alone and like your world was crumbling around you. You need me as much as I need you, don�t you Philip?. We need each other�. He says, �I�ll always need you Chloe. ALWAYS�!

He kisses her gently on the lips then says, �This green meadow is covered with these tiny blue flowers you see growing everywhere only during this time of the year. I love it when all of the trees are changing from red to brown to yellow and�well I just love this place but I love nothing more than I love you Chloe�.uh..ummm..anyway, the log cabin we�ll be staying in is nestled beneath those trees over there. It�s not easily seen from the air so we should be safe. It has everything we need to keep us warm and I�ve even been stashing food in there for the past couple of days. It has furniture and everything in it. It�s not anything fancy but I like it actually. Everything in it is rustic�.

They make their way to the cabin then he opens the door. He quickly places the bag as well as the pillows and comforter on a couch in the middle of the room. Chloe walks inside and can�t believe how beautiful this little cabin is. While he's looking around she's thinking: "Philip thinks this isn�t fancy but this is definitely one of the most beautiful cabins I�ve ever seen. Just look how shiny the oak floor is and those baby blue curtains hanging on the windows. That couch looks like it�s been hand-crafted and those light blue pillows on it are beautiful. Then there�s the matching chair, and the little kitchen. Philip sees she�s in a daze and smiles. He whispers, �A penny for your thoughts Baby�. She wipes the sweat from her brow then raises it and says, �These thoughts of mine are definitely worth more than a penny, but your money is not what I want�. He wraps his arms around her waist then raises his eyebrow and looks into her eyes. He says, �If you won�t take my money then what will it take for you to tell me what you�re thinking�?

She smiles then says, �What do you think Philip�? He gently bites her bottom lip then her top one and kisses her passionately then quickly breaks away. They�re both breathless and he says, �MMM�Bay�baby that kiss�your kisses�well you know what they do to me. I think I need to step into the freezer to cool myself down�. She wraps her arms around his neck then says, �You�re not the only one that needs to do that�. She then kisses him again.

Philip�s cell phone rings and he sees it�s Henderson. He answers it and Henderson says, �Master Philip I�m sorry to bother you but I just wanted to check and see if you/Chloe made it safely to the cabin. I�ll keep checking on you and if you need anything don�t hesitate to beep me�. Philip smiles then says, �We�re safely inside the cabin and everything is fine. Thanks Henderson. I love you. You know that don�t you�? Henderson has a huge smile on his face and says, �I know you do, Master Philip and you know I love you too. Be safe now and stay warm. I�ll talk to you later�. Philip says, �All right�goodnight Henderson�.

Henderson walks back into the study and says, �Master Philip isn�t in his room and I checked everywhere. Both of his cars are parked in the garage but he�s nowhere to be found�. Victor takes the cordless phone with him as he makes his way up to Philip�s room. Kate runs after him wondering what he�s doing. They are now in Philip�s room and Victor sees that Philip isn�t there but Kate smells a woman�s perfume. Victor also sees that the tape recorder is playing then decides to rewind it. He/Kate hear everything. He says, �Oh my God�Philip NO! Please don�t tell me he�s run off with Chloe because we don�t have any idea where they�ve gone. I�m so afraid of what Brady will do to both of them�.

Nancy hears everything and is very worried. She says, �Victor, what are we going to do�? He�s shaking and says, �Let me try something and then I�ll call you back Nancy�. She says, �Well all right, but please don�t keep me waiting too long. I�ll be pacing the floor until you do�. He says, �I promise..I won�t� Bye�. He looks at Kate and says, "Since both of his cars are here the only thing I can think of is to call him on his cell phone. He knows to never leave the house without it. He�s really good about keeping it charged up�. Kate says, �Well! Let�s hope he has it turned on�. Victor says, �I�m sure he has it turned on so here goes nothing�.

Victor calls and Philip goes over to the coffee table and picks his cell phone up. He sees that it�s his Father. He says, �It�s my Father�Chloe. I guess I�d better answer it because he doesn�t know where we are�. She says, �Our parents need to know that we�re all right, Philip. Especially after what Brady did to my Mother. I�m surprised she didn�t have a heart attack�. So he answers and Victor says, �Son, I know you�ve run away with Chloe because you felt you had no choice. I know that I�ve hurt you deeply but I�m in your room and found the tape. I rewound it and your Mother/I listened to it from beginning to end. I�ve once again rewound it knowing that you probably haven�t heard all of it. I�m hoping that after you hear the whole tape you�ll find it in your heart to forgive me. Forgive me for everything I�ve ever done to hurt you and also for what I�ve done to you/Chloe. I�m hoping that you�ll come back home where you belong. Where both you/Chloe belong�.

Philip says nothing but Victor knows he�s still on the line�listening. He presses the �play� button on the tape recorder and Philip hears everything from Victor�s conversations with Brady to the one with Kate/Nancy. Tears are running down his face and he turns to Chloe. He�s very choked up and she wraps her arms around him really tight. He�s still listening and Victor is crying and says, �Son, your Mother/I as well as Chloe�s Mother are going to make sure the two of you stay together. I promise if you�ll come back we�ll find a way to take care of Brady. He's my Grandson and I can't just turn him into the Police. But I�ll hire guards to watch the Wesley residence as well as the two of you wherever you go. Until we have evidence that Brady is stalking Chloe, we can't do anything. Since Marlena/John aren't home we'll have to figure out what to do. Your Mother/I love you with all of our hearts. Can you ever forgive me for the pain I�ve caused you all of these years and for the pain I�ve caused you/Chloe�?

Philip passes the phone to Chloe and walks over to the window. She says, �Mr. Kiriakis, can we call you back in a few minutes�? He says, �Chloe..thank God you�re with Philip. Please come home and we�ll work everything out. I promise. I know my Son is hurting right now and needs a little time before he talks to me, and I also know that you�re there for him. Please give him an extra hug for his Mother/I and tell him we�ll do everything in our power to help the two of you. Thanks Chloe for being there for my Son. Please don�t keep us waiting too long. We�ll be anxiously awaiting your call�. She says, �Philip needs me and we�ll call you as soon as we can. I promise. Bye�.

She lays the cell phone down on the coffee table then slowly walks up behind him and wraps her arms around his waist. She hugs him really tight then whispers in his ear, �Philip, I love you with all of my heart and would love it if you�d come with me�. He turns around and she looks into his eyes as she wipes the tears away. She takes him by the hand as they make their way over to the couch. She sits down then motions for him to lie down on the couch beside her, resting his head on her lap.

He does then she runs her fingers through his hair and says, �You don�t have to say a word, but just know that I�m here to listen when you�re ready to talk about this�. He looks into her eyes and says, �Chloe I�I love you more than you�ll ever know. How did I get so lucky? You�re my angel. My sweet and beautiful angel�. She says, �No I�m the lucky one because you�re my �Knight in Shining Armour�, and just the best of everything all rolled up into one�. She kisses him then he starts to tell her everything.

Nancy is pacing the floor wondering if Victor will ever call, and gets an eerie feeling that she�s being watched. She looks out the window to see that Brady has just driven by and has turned the corner. She is frightened and is thinking: My God! It�s Brady again. He�s even more obsessed than I thought he was. Maybe if I turn out the lights he�ll go away until tomorrow�. So she turns off the lights then goes into the study where she has a better view of Rose Avenue. She looks out the window and sees nothing so she curls up with a blanket on the couch.

A few minutes later she hears a noise coming from the back of the house. She quickly gets up and sees Brady throwing rocks up at Chloe�s window. He says, �Come on Chloe. Come to your window. I know you�re in there�. He continues throwing rocks at her window then gets very angry when he gets no response. He kicks a planter filled with geraniums all over the yard then leaves. Nancy�s heart is beating a mile a minute and she�s thinking: �My God! Brady�s gone mad. How could Craig/I have allowed this man into our home and into Chloe�s life? Victor, why don�t you call�? She continues pacing the floor.

Brady is back in his Jeep and is thinking: Dammit Chloe! Where the hel* are you�? Maybe she�s gone to the Penthouse looking for me. She can�t resist this �HOT BOD� of mine�. He calls the Penthouse and Belle runs to the phone to find Brady on the other end. She says, �Brady, what�s up�? He says, �Tink�, is Chloe there�? Belle says, �No Brady. The last time I saw her was when she left school today with Philip. Why�? He hits the steering wheel then says, �Thanks �Tink�. Belle has a puzzled look on her face but shrugs it off because Shawn is kissing her neck. He makes his way back to her lips then they continue kissing�

Brady drives off like a madman and all kinds of crazy thoughts are running through his head. He�s thinking: You�d better not be sneaking around behind my back with Uncle Phil, or�oh my God! What if she�s sleeping with Uncle Phil right now? No! She�s a virgin and I�m going to have her �first�. Then once she�s had me she won�t want Uncle Phil. I�ll have her begging for more�. He hits the steering wheel then continues driving around town.

Philip has now told Chloe everything. She gently pushes that little strand of hair that always seems to make its way onto his forehead back into place. She lovingly looks into his eyes and he says, �I love you Chloe. Things are definitely looking up for us Baby�. He jumps up off of the couch and reaches his hand out to her. She takes it and he pulls her up and into his arms. He says, �Do you have any idea how happy I am right now�? She says, �I think I have a pretty good idea. I love you Philip�. He smiles then kisses her passionately then breaks away. He says, �I could kiss you forever Chloe. I love you�.

She says, �I�ll always love you Philip. Your Father told me to give you this�. She hugs him really tight and says, �That was for your Father/Mother�. He smiles then says, �Speaking of my Father, I guess I�d better give him a call�. He walks over to the coffee table and picks up his cell phone. She stands beside him as he calls. Victor answers the phone and says, �Philip! Son�is that you�? Philip says, �It�s me Dad. Chloe/I are fine and I just wanted to tell you that I forgive you�. Victor has tears of joy in his eyes and says, �Thank you Son. You don�t know how happy this makes me. I promise I�ll never do anything to interfere with your happiness again�.

Philip says, �Dad�.Chloe/I talked about it and we�re gonna spend the night here. We plan on going to school tomorrow and doing everything we always do. We need to have you call Chloe�s Mother and ask her to send her some clothes to the Mansion before morning. We�ll be there bright and early�say 5:00 AM�. Victor says, �All right Son. I trust that you�re somewhere safe and I�ll do as you ask. Your Mother/I are working on a plan and we�ll tell you about it after school tomorrow�. Philip says, �All right, Dad. We�ll see you in the morning�. Victor says, �Your Mother/I love you Philip�. Philip says, �I love you guys too, Dad. Good night�. Victor hangs up the phone then goes over to Kate and tells her what�s going on.

Philip says, �Well, that�s taken care of so what do you say we pop a pizza in the oven then have ourselves something to drink? Oh Baby�I�m sorry you don�t eat pizza do you�? She says, �Yes I do. I just don�t eat a lot of red meat. What kind of pizza are we talking about�? He walks over to the freezer then says, �I�ve got combination, pepperoni, and cheese. Which one would you prefer? Or would you like to have all three�? She laughs and says, �How much pizza can you put away Kiriakis�? He says, �Do you really want to know? Well, I could easily eat a couple of them in one sitting..but I�m not as hungry for food tonight�umm I�m sorry. I can�t believe I just said that�.

Her face is flushed but she says, �How about the combination and the pepperoni�? He gently kisses her lips then says, �You�ve got it Baby�. He preheats the oven as she looks out the window. She sees horses in the distance and says, �Philip! I didn�t see the horses when we first got here. I love them�. He says, �Have you ever ridden one�? She has a sad look on her face and says, �Philip, there are a lot of things I�ve wanted to do but never had the chance to�. He places his hand on her cheek and says, �We�re gonna change that Baby. How about we take a walk after we eat our pizza�? She�s excited and says, �Oh Philip! I�d love that�.

He walks over and pops the pizzas in the oven. They cook for 30 minutes and are now ready. He takes them out of the oven, then sets them on the counter. She opens the fridge and takes two cans of Pepsi out. He gets a couple of glasses and fills them with ice. He says, �I never knew that baking pizzas could be so much fun�. She smiles and says, �I love doing everything with you Philip�. He smiles then takes a couple of plates out of the cabinet. He cuts the pizza then says, �So what kind do you want to start with�? She says, �I�ll just have a piece of each�. He places them on her plate then puts 4 pieces on his plate.

They set their plates and drinks on the table then he pulls her chair out for her. Philip pulls up a chair right next to her and she says, �Can you get any closer�? He laughs then says, �Now that you mention it, I can�. They laugh then he gives her a bite of his pizza as she gives him a bite of hers. After each bite he kisses her... They are now finished eating and Chloe says, �I�m stuffed Philip�. He says, �So am I�. What do you say we take that walk over to the stables and I�ll show you my horse �Thunder�. She says, �We�d better clean up this mess first, though�. He smiles and says, �I�ll do that when we get back�. They put their jackets on then head for the stables.

They go inside the stables and she says, �Philip! They are absolutely beautiful�. He smiles then gently pets each one of the four horses. He says, �Go on! Go ahead and pet them. They won�t bite you. They love it actually�. So she pets them then says, �This must be �Thunder�, right�? He says, �How did you know�? She says, �Because he�s so strong and muscular, just like you�.

Philip�s heart skips a beat then he has a flashback of when they almost made love in the stables and becomes extremely warm. He takes his jacket off then sees that Chloe is in a daze. She�s having a flashback of him taking her blouse off then kissing her. They look into each other�s eyes and can�t fight their desire for one another. He takes her in his arms and she wraps hers around his back. He gently presses his lips against hers. He gives her one kiss after another then their kisses becomes more passionate. She ends up against the wall as he begins kissing her neck and down to the top of her blouse. They are both on fire and break away for air.

He says, �Chloe I�God I want you so badly�. She takes a deep breath then says, �I want you too�. They continue kissing then he breaks away and says, �We can�t do this Chloe. We don�t have protection and I want our first time to be special�. She catches her breath then says, �I know you�re right but�Philip, I�ve never wanted anyone/anything as much as I want you now. I want to be as close to you as I can get�. He kisses her once again then says, �This is the hardest thing I�ve ever had to do but we�d better go back to the cabin before we go any further and you become pregnant�. She says, �If I did would you still want me�? He hesitates and before he has a chance to utter a word she runs out of the stables.

She runs back to the cabin then locks the door. Philip runs after her and says, �Chloe Baby, please open the door. Of course I�d still want you. I�ll always want you. Please open the door�. She�s standing there with tears in her eyes but won�t let him in.

He walks around the cabin and remembers he left the back door unlocked. He goes inside and as he�s walking towards her he says, �A part of me is missing and it breaks my heart. I have this �spot� on my chest right next to my heart that is missing something. This �spot� belongs to someone very precious to me. She�s not only �HOT� but she takes my breath away just thinking about her. She�s the most beautiful woman I�ve ever seen with the most incredible/unique blue eyes. I love getting lost in them�.But what I love most about her is her true beauty within. She�s the sweetest, kindest, most compassionate, loving, and understanding woman I�ve ever known, or ever want to know. I want to be her best friend, her partner for life, her lover, her husband, the Father of her children, and to spend the rest of my life with her. When she�s not with me all I feel is emptiness.�Her name is Miss Chloe Lane Wesley and she holds the key to Philip Robert Kiriakis�s heart. Would you happen to know where I can find the love of my life and the woman I want to spend the rest of it with�?

Chloe has tears running down her face and he reaches his arms out to her. He says, "Baby, this spot is reserved for you and only you. I love you with all of my heart, body, and soul. Without you I�m not whole. I need you Chloe�. She slowly walks over to him then lays her head against his chest. He wraps his arms around her then says, �MMM�.perfect fit. This is where you belong Chloe, and if you got pregnant, the only thing it would change is that we�d get married sooner. How could you even think that I wouldn�t want you Chloe? I go out of my mind when you�re not with me. I love you and always will..no matter what. I�m in this for the long haul, and you�re stuck with me�.

She hugs him really tight then he says, �Why don�t we go lie on the bed and I�ll just hold you in my arms for a while. But first, let me lock this place up�. So he locks both doors and checks the windows. He says, �Are you cold�? She says, �Yeah, but I know where I feel safe/secure, and can get warm�. He smiles then walks over to the thermostat on the wall and turns up the heat. He then takes her in his arms and kisses her passionately. He gently lowers her down on the bed, then lies beside her and wraps his arms around her.

As they�re lying there she says, �You know when you were gone the entire summer, I felt so sad. I felt like a part of me was missing. I felt an emptiness I�ve never felt before and that�s because you weren�t physically with me, but you never left my heart Philip. Not a day went by that I didn�t think about you. No matter how hard I tried to forget you, the love I have for you only got stronger and only made me want you more. I love you with all of my hear, body, and soul Philip and will always need you�.

He has tears in his eyes and says, �All I thought about all summer was you Chloe, and how I�d do whatever it took to get you back. From now on if something I do bothers you, or hurts you in any way, please don�t run away from me. Tell me right then and there, and I promise we�ll work things out�TOGETHER. Together we can move mountains Chloe. I love you Baby and always will�.

He holds her in his arms for a while then says, �Well, we�ve got to be up at around 4:30 AM to be at the Mansion by 5:00 AM, so if you want something to sleep in I have several nightshirts that are really warm. You can take your pick. Then you can get under the covers and I�ll tuck you in. I�ll just sleep over in the chair in the corner until morning�. He starts to get up and she says, �Just pick one out for me then I�ll put it on. But Philip, please don�t sleep in the chair. I want you to get under the covers with me then hold me for the rest of the night�. He goes over to a drawer then brings her a nightshirt to wear. She gets up then goes into the bathroom and changes.

While she�s gone he�s thinking: My God! I can�t refuse her anything, but how am I gonna be able to sleep at all with the most beautiful woman in the world lying next to me without�She comes back into the room and walks up to him and gives him a big hug. He smiles then says, �That nightshirt definitely never looked that good on me�. She says, �My feet are cold Philip. Can you get them warm�? He says, �Sure I can�. He then pulls the covers toward the end of the bed and says, �Just lie down on the bed and I�ll be right back�. She does then he goes into the bathroom.

He takes a look in the mirror and throws some cologne on. He combs his hair completely back out of his face then takes his clothes off and puts a pair of pajama bottoms on. He comes back into the room wearing a pair of black silk pajama bottoms and has no shirt on. Her heart skips a beat and she�s thinking: My God! Just when I think he can�t get any better looking, he does. I feel warm from my head to my toes, but I can�t tell him that. MMM�just think Chloe, he�ll be lying next to you all night�.

Philip smiles then sits on the edge of the bed and takes her left foot and gently massages it and gets it warm, then does the same to the right one. He says, �How�s that�? She smiles and says, �Much better, now all I need is you�. His heart is racing but he goes over to his side of the bed and crawls in next to her. They turn on their sides facing one another and wrap their arms around each other. He says, �You smell so good and your skin is like silk. It feels so good to hold you like this�.

She snuggles up next to him then kisses his cheek. She looks into his eyes and says, �MMM�having your strong arms around me and the smell of your cologne and�you drive me crazy Philip. Sometimes I can�t think when you�re this close to me�I just�He says, �Baby, just thinking about you leaves me breathless and you definitely drive me crazy�. He gently kisses her lips then says, �MMM�.he runs his fingers across her bottom lip then her top one and says, �It�s as if your lips were made for mine. MMM�I could kiss them forever�. She smiles then kisses him on the cheek. He pulls the covers over them then says, �Goodnight sweetheart. I love you�. She says, �Goodnight Philip. I love you too�. He holds her for a while then they both fall asleep in each other�s arms -
