Chapter 5

Cheryl's pov

Half an hour later

.....

"Right, I'm gonna have a shower. And wash me face." I said to JB as I stretched and got a towel. Kimberley has gone now to see Justin, her fiancé back home. I felt the sweat as I got in the shower and realised, "Wow, I must've been running loads today.". I don't bother to wash my hair as I did so this morning. I came out feeling fresh and relaxed as I dried myself and dressed into my cute baby pink heart silk pyjamas and little slippers to match. I rinsed all my makeup (including my clumped mascara running to my cheeks!). I kept my hair natural and decide to make myself a hot chocolate.

I put some Whitney Houston tunes on and listened her endless classics as I kicked back and relaxed while JB was out getting some groceries.

"And I...Will always love you!" I belted along to Whitney's inspiring ballads. And then I sung to her positive vibes from 'I'm Every Woman' as I bounced around the living room. "I'mm, every woman! It's all in me..."

Ring ring!

My phone buzzed like mad as I was dancing to Whitney. I sighed and turned the music off while answering the call without looking at who was calling me. I was definitely distracted from Ashley.

"Chezzabelle! You ok? Kimba was worried about you." Nicola said in her innocent voice.

"Ginge! Yeah I'm fine, babes. But Ashley has left me red marks on me sides." I replied to her smiling. "They're killin' me."

"Oh, Cheryl. Glad you're alright...pet." I heard her laugh as she was trying to mimick me. I pictured winking with a cheeky, girly, beaming smile.

"Eh, are you takin' the mick of me accent, Nic?" I smirked.

"No, Chez, why would I take the mick of you?" She said in her innocent voice again to convince me. Nicola's like the little sister I never had and she always plays like this as if she's a little girl; she is the youngest out of me and the girls. It was fun chatting to her.

"Alright, I must've heard me mam then!" I joked around with her, laughing helplessly.

"Well, what are you doing?" Nicola asked.

"I was havin' a shower, and now I was actually just dancing to Whitney Houston, you know." I wasn't too embarrassed saying it. ;)

"Oh! What song was it?" She begged, now curious.

"Guess!"

"'One Moment in Time'?"

"Nope!"

"'Run To You'?"

"Nope, try again!"

"'When You Believe' with Mariah Carey?"

"Yea-nooo!" I laughed. "Come on, Ginge! You must know! Given up?"

"No! How about...'I'm Every Woman'?"

"Um..." I held the suspense as Nicola said,

"That's wrong isn't it?"

"Nic, I'm joking! It was!"

"Ooh, have fun dancing to that number, eh?" She giggled.

"Yeah, I think I'm gonna order pizza for tea. See ya, Ginge!"

"Mm, same here! See ya, Chezzabelle!" She said cheerfully.

So, I ordered some Dominos and had ham and pineapple with cheese and pepperoni and olives. I haven't had pizza for a while since JB has been kindly cooking the meals for us. Coco and Buster were trying to eat the pizza too. "No, you're not having me pizza, you two, monkeys! I should probably feed ya tea as well!" I grinned and the dogs returned it by snuggling into me, asking for pizza, again! I gave them some meat and biscuits and filled their water bowl. I then, sat back down at the table to finish my mega meal until my loving husband was home.

JB came back with some shopping and to me eating Dominos pizza. He smirked as he greeted me with a fake annoyed face which is so cute.

"Hey, cheeky. You shouldn't be eating pizza, babe!" He tutted with his finger.

"Oh, come on, babes, I've left you half of me pizza for you too!" I said, smirking back. "Pepperoni, cheese, ham and pineapple and olives! With stuffed crust filling!" I lightly kissed him on the nose and offered him a slice.

"Oh, how can I resist a stuffed crust?" He replied, flirtatiously, holding my hand. He kissed me on the nose too, with glowing puppy eyes. "My good girl" he murmured in his sexy french accent.

JB kissed my lips passionately and we each took a bite of our pizza. This night can't get any better! Butterflies were fluttering in my chest and I felt my heart beating effortlessly. We held eye contact and I just kept getting lost into his innocent eyes. This man is so intriguing, I though as I smiled and my face flushed blush pink. As he got up to clean up after we've eaten, he left a romantic peck on my hand as he twirled around the room to some Whitney Houston. I must've turned it back on after talking to Nicola! He beckoned me towards him and we slow danced to 'I Have Nothing'. I was spinning around in his grasp while he was lightly wrapping his arms around my waist. I rested my head on his shoulder as we sat down, exhausted and turned the TV on to watch a bit of Corrie.

My perfect night after an eventful day...
