PART 7

"I can't believe we're on the flight and they haven't noticed the ring!" Ben said.
"Yeah I know, not even the press said anything at the airport!" said Emma.
"Not even the fans" said Ben.
"Weird!" said Emma.

Later that day, the plane touched down in the Maldives.  The sun was shining and everyone was there except Tess.  No press, no journalists, photographers or tv cameras.  Paul took in a deep breath as he got out of the plane.
"Just what the doctor ordered!" he said and everyone laughed.  "This is one amazing island!"
"Yeah said Nat "It's beautiful here!"
"Why can't Tess be here?" complained Chris.
"Oh come here you!" Emma said, hugging him.  "You'll see her soon!  Anyway guys, we'll meet you in the bar after we've unpacked.  We've got something important to tell you." said Emma.
"Yeah I can't believe you haven't noticed yet!" said Ben, as Emma and him walked off in the direction of the hotel, where they were staying.
"I wonder what's so important? asked Chris.
"Maybe they've broke up!  Emma did look a bit teary on the plane!" said Mark.

"No look, they were kissing when they got off the plane!" said Lauren.
"Yeah well maybe she's pregnant" Mark said.
"You know that's peobably what it is!" Lauren said.
"Oh my God, poor Emma, wonder what's gonna happen to her career?" asked Chris.
"Maybe if she is pregnant, we should be happy for them!" said Paul.
"PAUL!  No we shouldn't, Emma is only gonna be 18 tomorrow!  It's going to ruin her life before it even starts!" said Chris.
"Oh come on, be happy for them, you were happy for me and Nat!" said Paul.
"Yes Paul, but you and Nat are older than Ben and Emma!" said Chris.
"Age is just a number where love is concerned and you know as well as everyone else that they are in love!" said Paul.
"Right guys, just leave it.  She mightn't even be pregnant!" said Mark as they walked into the hotel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Wow!" said Nat.
"It's gorgeous!" said Lauren.
The group all checked into the hotel and found their rooms.  Most of them were complaining that there were too many stairs and they should have taken the invisible lift that wasn't there.  In Mark and Lauren's room, Lauren was unpacking her suitcase while Mark went outside on the balcony.
"Lauren, come here and see this!" Mark said.
"K, I'm coming now!" shouted Lauren.
Mark ran into the room and took Lauren's hand then covered her eyes and took her out onto the balcony.
"K, ready to look?" asked Mark.
"Yes!" Lauren said, laughing.  "Wow!" she said as Mark removed his hands.  She looked out at the view.  "It's gorgeous!"
"Just like you!" said Mark.  "Lauren, I know you don't feel the same, but I love you!" Mark kissed her.
"Mark, I love you too, I've never felt this way about anyone before!" Lauren said.
"What?  You love me?"  questionned Mark.
"Yep.  I just couldn't tell you until I was 100% sure!" Lauren said.
They went back into the room and well use your imagination to what they did ;)

Later that night, everyone split into their own groups because thay all felt that they needed a break from each other.  Besides they were spending tomorrow night at Emma's party together.
Ben and Emma had decide to wait until tomorrow to tell everyone about their engagement.
Emma and Ben headed off to spend a romantic night together on the beach.  Mark, Lauren and Chris went down to the bar for the night and Paul had taken Nat out for a romantic meal.
