Casualty- Our History makes Our Future

Thanks for reading!

As Harry got to the area where the wedding was to take place, the congregation he saw before him included His children, Selena’s eldest sister Debbie with her husband, Laura’s husband and children and younger brother Malcolm, then there was Maggie, Tess, Abs, Charlie and many other of the friends they had.

It wasn’t before long Selena stood at the bottom of the aisle, her father Freddie linking her ready to give her away for the second time and behind her was twin sister Laura who was her bridesmaid seeing as she wasn’t last time. Selena caught Harry’s eye, her beauty amazed him, and the smile on her face pleased him even more, and soon enough the wedding began.

Vicar: we are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Selena Elizabeth Donavan and Harry Simon George Harper....

Time passed, the weather got hotter, and the love got more heated. Harry and Selena had not stopped smiling the whole time, it was a sign letting everyone know that this was the right thing for them.

Unknown to them an unexpected guest had managed to get his way down to the highly exclusive Palace in Sun City, it was Will, it wasn’t until the exchange of rings had took place Selena noticed him and a kind of worried look rose upon her face, Harry noticed this and mouthed to her ‘What’s wrong’ and Selena mouthed back ‘Will’s here’ ‘where’ came Harry’s silent reply ‘down there’ Selena used her head to signify his direction. But they decided to ignore this factor, as this day was about them being united together as they’d always hoped.

Vicar: If anyone knows of any reasons as to why these to people should not be joined in marriage please speak now

The dreaded silence came both Harry and Selena hoped that Will wouldn’t say anything; the both pretended they were looking at the congregation to see if anyone would speak, but infact they were looking down at Will. However, Will didn’t say a word, he just walked away as the vicar announced.

Vicar: I now pronounce you man and wife.. You may now kiss the bride

Harry lifted Selena’s veil, to see her grinning radically, and it lead to a small kiss on the lips, but in total it came to about three, the last being the longest, for a second or two they looked at each over lovingly, before turning to walk down the aisle together as confetti flew above them and cheers and smiles were all around, especially from the bride and groom who looked a picture.



Soon the party began the newlyweds were yet to leave each others sides, they were to wrapped up in happiness to do anything else. But Maggie came, in hope of a chance to get to speak to her best friend

Maggie: Hey, Mr and Mrs Harper

Harry: Maggie

Selena: Hiya

Maggie: Selena can I say you look amazing

Selena: Thank you

Maggie: Harry, you’re one lucky man,

Harry: well I like to think I am, right I’m going to talk to the kids for a bit

Selena: okay

Harry and Selena, kiss before Harry goes off to speak to his five children

Maggie: You and Harry need to get a room, if you’re going to do that in public

Selena: Maggie! I’ve barely been married an hour and you’re telling me I should give up the physical passion

Maggie: I didn’t mean it like that.... anyway, how are you feeling

Selena: I’m just so.. so well in love

Maggie: aww I take it as you’re happy then

Selena: ecstatic, I have to stay I didn’t get a few doubts you know I thought something was going to go wrong and then I saw Will hanging about

Maggie: Will

Selena: Yeah, I don’t know why he is here because he wasn’t invited, Ellen’s not, and Lara wasn’t here, I thought she would have shown up if not for me then Harry

Maggie: Just be happy you’re married,

Selena: I am... now where’s that husband of mine

Maggie just laughed as Selena walked off, before making her way to Harry she bumped into a face she hadn’t seen for a while


Selena: Bex

Bex: Hiya

Selena: I thought it was you I saw in the crowd

Bex: well I wouldn’t have missed this for the world, as I knew you to would get it on sometime

Selena: That’s enough Bex

Bex: what? Can I say you are looking wonderful

Selena: thank you

Bex: all to keep Harry in good form is it

Selena: can you stop saying things like that what me and Harry do is our business

Bex: okay.. I was just saying

Selena: well don’t, how are things for you?

Bex: there fine, it’s weird but everything’s going well for me, I have a good life, new friends....

Selena: seems like you are having a great life out there.. Claire killed herself you know

Bex: really! Whoa, didn’t think she would do that, but what do I care she made my life hell, im surprised Luke didn’t say anything

Selena: aww petal, why don’t you come back to holby

Bex: there’s nothing left for me there

Selena: I know but

Bex: but nothing, I gave everything up there and I’ve got loads now to leave behind, even my new job

Selena: well I can think of a reason

Bex: what

Selena: well

Bex: you’re pregnant and you want me to help out when you’re both working

Selena: no... me and Harry already have a daughter

Bex: kept that quiet

Selena: you never asked

Bex: so tell me about her

Selena: Theresa is 11 months, adorable..

Bex: has she obtained Harry’s looks has she, because that’s wrong

Selena: what’s wrong with Harry?

Bex: nothing, he just not the most attractive of men in my eyes

Selena: well she more or less looks like me

Bex: that’s a relief; a baby looking like Harry would be bad

Selena: well I don’t think so

Bex: you wouldn’t

Selena: well for saying that you have to come back to Holby and do the baby-sitting

Bex: I don’t think so... now I’m going to talk to the rather good-looking man over there

Selena: You never change do you?

Read in again, U must think i'm proper sad sitting there and reading for an hour, well lets just say my college work suffered abit but who cares, got the hols to do it now. lol

Its really good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, I don't think you're sad.... I do stuff like that all the time, I should really be doing my Drama coursweork over this half term, but instead i'm writing this fic, and some others and cerating banners and wallpapers!
Glad you like reading this story... despite the fact its really long! lol

Once Bex went, Selena shook her head and headed towards her husband. She sneakily snuck up behind him and grabbed him round the waist,. In which he turned around to face her, she had a firm hold around his waist still and he had slid his hands down to her behind

Selena: hey gorgeous

Harry: Selena

Selena: never guess who’ve I’ve just been talking to

Harry: I wouldn’t have a clue

Selena: Bex

Harry: so she came

Selena: you invited her

Harry: well it wasn’t mystic Meg was it?

Selena: Harry...

Harry: well I knew you began pretty good friends so I took the trouble along with Luke in contacting her

Selena: I love you

Harry: I love you too

Harry takes Selena’s hand and kisses it

Harry: So Mrs Harper..

Dj: (interrupting) Ladies and gentleman, if you like to stop what you are doing, it is now time for the newly weds Harry and Selena’s first dance

The Dj puts on the track, it was Molly Pasutti’s ‘Because you loved me’. Harry and Selena look lovingly at each other and join hands,

Selena: I suppose I’ll take this opportunity in dancing with you Harry

Harry: absolutely

They walked into the centre of what was the marble flooring, by the pool, in which the sun glistened into. Everyone else stood around, watching as Harry had pulled Selena in closer, when they began to dance. Maggie and Tess were standing near each other

Maggie: They look so happy

Tess: Yeah... I never thought they could actually stick this all out

Maggie: well they say true love is a winner when you find it

Tess: why can’t we all be like them, just head out admit you love each other and get on with it

Maggie: yeah but it wasn’t easy, Selena told me that her and Harry sort of like had an affair a few years back when she did a drugs trial at Holby, she also told me she actually seduced him enough to make him want to go back to her place for a nightcap- as he said, but she was wanting more... but Harry’s wife died that night and they didn’t make it out the restaurant

Tess: oo ya, that’s what confused me, I heard about a past relationship but, I never thought of that, but look at them now.... I never thought of Selena as the loved up type, she’s usually all so

Maggie: hard and the type not to notice Harry’s affections for about a year

Tess: yeah.... I suppose we could blame Harry then,

Maggie: (laughs) we could but I doubt she would be happy

Once the track had finished, the Dj put on some other tracks and the party got going, Harry and Selena took a sideline to get a drink.

Selena: you’re very good at the old dancing there

Harry: all comes in practise

Selena: Ahh, that’s why, is it

Harry: umhum

Selena: you know this is the happiest day of my life, everything’s prefect

Harry: Because everyone knows that, we’re the perfect couple

Selena: shouldn’t that be husband and wife

Harry and slipped his hand around Selena’s waist with a glass of wine in the other, Selena however used on hand to lean on Harry’s shoulder, whilst having the wine glass in the other

Selena: everyone seems like there are enjoying themselves

Harry: and so should we

Selena: I am... besides we still have a lot to do down here

Harry: and

Selena: and I see Will coming over

Harry: well he’s not going to do anything now is he? He walked away didn’t he

Selena: I know, I just don’t know why he is here

Harry: let’s ask him then

Will approached, them there was a changed attitude in him

Will: Look I’m not here to cause trouble

Harry: then why are you here

Selena: Shhh... Let’s here it then

Will: I’m happy for you both honestly... you seem very

Selena: In love

Will: yes

Selena: well we are

Will: certainly a big splash out...

Harry: she’s worth it all

Will: I know, I’m truly wish you the best, I’ve done wrong in the past, but seeing that you two mean the world to each other, I want to make peace

Harry: (thinking) okay... but promise me, you’ll never cause any harm

Will: I won’t

Harry: good.... Sel...

Selena: yeah... we might have to end up working together again, so we can at least do it as friends, after what happened last time

Will: Right... well I’m off, I didn’t plan to stay here for long

Will walked off into the distance, Harry turned to Selena.

Harry: well that’s a new light

Selena: Mmm, but I don’t care about that

Selena and Harry’s noses rubbed together and grinned

Harry: just under 24 hours and we’ll be out of here and in the most romantic place we could be

Selena: don’t I know...

Just then, the Dj makes another announcement

DJ: Right everybody we have a very special performance courtesy of Laura and Debbie sisters to the bride, so here performing one of there hit singles is Liberty-X feat Reverend Run with ‘Song 4 Lovers’

The crowds around cheer as they take to the cleared area by the Decks as the backing track begins to play,

Everyone around danced and sang along, and it wasn’t long before a full black race choir joined for the chorus, Selena turned to face Harry and a big smile spread across her face, as did Harry’s, this was more than what they could ask for

Once the song was over, Kelli who was one of the singers in Liberty-X had something to say

Kelli: We would just like to say we were really honoured to be able to do this and we would like to say congratulations to Harry and Selena, we wish you all the best

Just then Debbie and Laura make there way to save something

Debbie: hey Sis, just want to say this didn’t come cheap so you best have like it

Laura: hey, that wasn’t supposed to come up.. the real reasons as to why we did this is

Laura and Debbie: we love you petal

Laura: and you deserve it

Laura and Debbie then both go up to Selena, whom unlinks from Harry and they hug

Selena: thank you, for that.. it was amazing, you really shouldn’t have gone to all that trouble

Debbie: like we said you deserve it, you both do

Selena: and we appreciate it, don’t we Harry

Harry: certainly, it was a very nice thing for you to do

Awwww, that was lovely
Hope i have some guests singers turn up at my wedding someday lol.

This is really good you know, Bet its better than doing ur drama work as well.

yeah, its exactly how i would like my wedding, but maybe with different guest singers,
and yeah it is better than my Drama coursework, if you discount the fact i'm watching Loose Woman

***

Hours later, the party was over. Most of the guests were hanging around, Harry and Selena were about to get off to sleep, seeing as they had a flight to catch the next afternoon. They had said bye to everyone, as it was a possibility they wouldn’t see them the next day.

They were walking up the spiral stairs which were in the centre of the Palace; Harry was carrying a beaming Selena.

Harry: so whose room we going to

Selena: mine

Harry: made a quick decision

Selena: I know, I had a peek at your rooms earlier... and its not as nice as mine

Harry: naughty

Selena: well I also need my essentials and I need to pack some more things for the cases we’re taking on the honeymoon and...

Harry: and you don’t think I haven’t got anything to do

Selena: well I’m a woman and I want to make sure this dress gets put away safely and my make-up needs removing

Harry: okay you win.. just let me grab a few thing myself

Selena: why, I’ll send you out in the early hours of the morning

Harry: evil

Selena: well, I do want to sleep all night its been a long day, and no messing there I am knackered

Harry: well I wouldn’t want to wear you out Mrs Harper

Selena: Oh Harry, I’m not in the mood, I just want to sleep

Harry: fine

Selena: I didn’t mean it like that... like I said it’s been a long day all I want to is snuggle up to my husband for one night only

Harry: anything’s better than nothing, I’ll just nip over to grab a few things then and I’ll see you there

Selena: good

A few minuets later, Harry arrived at Selena’s room, as he entered Selena walked over to him and wrapped her arms around him, and they were both still in full wedding gear

Selena: I told you it was much nicer

Harry: true

Selena: exactly, well I’m going to get out of this dress and put it safe

Harry: I say it looks better on you then put away

Selena: I’m surprised you didn’t say anything else

Harry: I thought you were tired

Selena: I am... now I really am going

Five minuets later Selena was changed in to something more comfortable, she was putting her dress neatly, and carefully away, Harry watched as she did. Soon enough Selena jumped onto the bed, stomach down using her elbows to prop her up to look at Harry was sat beside her. Harry began to run his hand up and down Selena’s back and bottom

Selena: Harry do you know when I was talking to Bex earlier

Harry: mm

Selena: I asked her to come back to Holby right, and because I said that she thought I was pregnant and asking for extra help... so I told her about Theresa

Harry: well you’re not are you?

Selena: don’t be stupid, how can I be we’ve not...

Harry: well I don’t know what you get up to when

Selena: Harry, I wouldn’t do that to you and besides, we’ve been together most of the time

Harry: I just had to check

Selena: if you’re going to get worried and think I’ll start cheating, why did you marry me

Harry: because Selena, I love you... but you need to know something

Selena: (Face drops) What.... don’t tell me you

Harry: no, not as such

Selena: Harry

Harry: Selena, don’t jump to conclusions here, I have to tell you what happened

Selena: (Taking Harry’s hand away from her body) I’m listening

Harry: just before I went downstairs, before we were married, Lara came to my room, she was telling me not to marry you, she wanted me to call it off

Selena: How could you... with Lara, you said you wouldn’t cheat on me Harry

Harry: I didn’t, look all I’m trying to tell you is she tried to kiss me, and I moved away, she got my cheek... I’m telling you this because we said no secrets and I don’t want Lara telling you stuff that didn’t happen

Selena: Is that the honest truth, because if it isn’t I would feel bad for falling in love with you and trusting you

Harry: it is, you know I wouldn’t hurt you

Selena: I know, I just don’t want to loose you... and after everything, I’m still a venerable person

Harry: yes, and a very sweet loving one too... I’ve seen a change in you ever since I met you

Selena: It’s all your fault

Harry: great

Selena: (climbing into the bed covers) right, I’m going to get my head down

Harry: right the, I wont be long

Tally was wondering around the Palace, she was looking for some time to reflect on the marriage, it was better than what she thought, she could see past all the thoughts she had that it wouldn’t work as she could see the happiness spark through even more than it did in the upcoming months to the wedding or maybe it had always been that way and she never really saw that through having Lara’s outburst through.

As Tally walked round the front of The Palace, where it was pretty much dark, quiet and empty she heard some crying coming from behind a tree. And so she decided to go and do some investigating as she thought how anyone could be sad on a day like this, she came to find it was Lara

Tally: Lara... what’s wrong

Lara: he married her

Tally: you mean my dad

Lara: yes, I tried to stop him

Tally: why

Lara: I care about him

Tally: as a friend

Lara: no, more than that

Tally: I didn’t think you were serious, on all that I knew you were doing this to wind them up but

Lara: But it made me feel for Harry again, after all this Will stuff, finding he used me, I was heartbroken to see him disown me like that

Tally: You had a chance ages ago, when Selena wasn’t around, but can’t you just leave him now, they are so happy, you should have seen them, it’s so sweet they really love each other, and anyway where were you

Lara: Harry stopped me coming because I told him to call it off and I ... I tried to kiss him, I thought it was what he wanted

Tally: Lara what has got into you?

Lara: Tally, I don’t know, all I know is I didn’t want Selena to be Harry’s wife

Tally: Come on this isn’t like you, I’ve accepted it and I’m happy for them so why can’t you be

Lara: I don’t know, I just don’t see it lasting because I know it should be me there not her

Tally: what do you have against Selena, I’ve seen past that stuff with mum and she’s a nice person, she’s kind, loyal, a good mother from what I’ve seen and has made dad happy

Lara: but what about me

Tally: today isn’t about you... look lets see how you are tomorrow, you should get some sleep, and this crying can’t have done you any good

Naughty Naughty watching Tv, I can talk though i'm meant to be doing college work and i've been chatting to people all day.

Anyway I think ur scripts are really good and i like reading it.

lol, well the coursework is done now... all i need do now is revise for mock exams

***

The next morning, Harry and Selena awoke, to the bright sunny morning, with a mall breeze coming through, both were wrapped in each others arms, but they soon both awoke.

Selena: (smiling) Hi...

Harry: so, how was your first night as Mrs Harper?

Selena: quiet, how I wanted it to be, but perfect, as I know I have you for the rest of my life, what about you

Harry: Yeah, it’s fine, knowing that I have the only one that was supposed to be Mrs Harper with me I’ll be fine

Selena: aww and I’m so grateful we’ve got here, because I realised happiness does lie somewhere

Harry: and that’s with me

Harry and Selena stop talking for at least a second,

Selena: you should be going, breakfast is due around now, and we’ve got loads to sort out

Harry: you throwing me out

Selena: For now, yes... I’ll see you down at breakfast, as I’m going in the shower

Harry: and I’m to walk to my room like this

Selena: Yes... (Kissing him) but just go quickly, I don’t want people thinking they have an advantage

Harry: would they ever

Selena: a man of your looks they might, now go before I change my mind and keep you hostage

Harry: That would be nice

Selena: Harry, stop it I’m staying away from you, I want you out of here by the time I come back

Harry: don’t worry I will be

Later on just before the newly weds were about to leave of for there honeymoon, Selena and Harry were getting ready to go in to the car which was taking them away to the airport, Selena was wearing a tight white dress with big red flowers as a pattern on it with a pair of shoes from her favourite store Martinez, Harry was in a more relaxed, it was still a little suit like but more jeans and shirt type of look.

They were waiting as the bags going to their honeymoon destination were being packed, Harry was standing with his arm wrapped around Selena, soon enough they were ready to go, Selena had got in the car, but that was when Tally came running down Harry turned to face her, as Selena looked out the car door.

Tally: Dad... Dad wait

Harry: Tally, what’s wrong

Tally: it’s Lara, she wont wake up.. There’s a letter it asks for you

Harry: Can’t you find anyone else

Tally: there is no-one around, please dad you have to help her

Selena: Harry we’ll miss the flight

Tally: But he’s got to help her

Harry: I can’t Sel...

Selena: Harry come on

Selena had reached pout her arm to grab Harry to make him get in the car, she thought Harry was going to come on in when he turned around but...

Harry: I’ve got to help her Sel (He kisses her on the lips much to her annoyance) look I can meet you down on the airport, plane whatever

Selena: Harry?

Harry: You’ve got to trust me, I’ll be there (To the driver) get her to the airport, make sure she’s okay and everything runs smoothly

Selena: you best be there, promise me

Harry: I promise

Tally: dad come on

Selena: You go then, if that’s where you rather be

Selena let’s got of Harry’s arm and watches as he walks off with Tally, the driver starts the car engine and begins to drive

Selena: It’s not even been 24 hours and he’s gone to another woman instead of going on his honeymoon with his wife

Driver: seemed serious though

Selena: It always is when it’s Lara

Harry and Tally arrived upstairs in Lara’s room; Lara was flat out on the bed, a bottle of Paracetmol beside her, empty. Tally had ran over to her, Harry stood at the end of the bed

Tally: Dad do something

Harry: i... right... erm

Tally: Come on dad

Harry: Tally, was she okay last night

Tally: no she was crying a lot, saying that she tried to stop the wedding and you wouldn’t let her come

Harry: I knew it

Tally: tell me what’s going on

Harry: she doesn’t want me to be with Selena... and now look, I’ve choosing my wife over some old flame, Tally I can’t help her

Tally: then why are you here, come one please do something, she is my best friend, and I thought she was yours

Harry: I don’t know why I’m here I should be with Selena and Lara isn’t a friend not since she returned here

Tally: really? I thought you were getting on fine, NOW GOD DAMN HELP HER

At this, Lara was beginning to stir...

Harry: I can’t, I’m sorry I have to be somewhere else... go and find Tess, Maggie Abs whoever, but I’m going to be with my wife

Tally: Fine, I thought as a consultant you would do your duties

Harry: I’m not at work now

Lara: (quietly) Harry.... you came

Tally: (To Lara) Don’t know what you’re happy about he’s going (to Harry) have a good time... just remember next time you’re supposed to help people when they’re in danger

Harry: Lara’s fine, now you just look after yourself

At That Harry ran from the room and called up someone to give him a life down to the airport, Tally however stayed with Lara, whom was now more awake

Tally: What were you thinking?

Lara: I wanted Harry to save me

Tally: Lara are you stupid he doesn’t want you; he’s just got married for gods sake.

Lara: What are you on about we kissed

Tally: you kissed him

Lara: Yes! He wants me Tally

Tally: Lara, you need to sort yourself out my dad is happy with Selena

Lara: and you think that will last

Tally: don’t start this again

Lara: Tally just listen to me

Tally: why you don’t listen to me, you’re supposed to be my mate, but all it is now is you want to get round me for my dad

Lara: Does it really look that way

Tally: well yeah, why did you do this then?

Lara: because I needed to know if he still cared

Selena was now sitting on the plane, she was sat in the first class area in which her and Harry were booked to have their flight in, Selena was sat in silence waiting for Harry to walk through and sit in the empty seat beside her, she began to rest her head against the window and stare out waiting, but that’s when the air stewardess spoke

Stewardess: This is Lena I’ll be at your service today, you are flying with British Airways, and the flight is about to take of in 2 minuets so please ensure your are seated and wearing your belts... thank you

Selena: (getting anxious) excuse me, excuse me.... my husband isn’t on board yet, he should be here, can’t you hold the fort for a while

Lena: I’m afraid we can’t hold the fort any longer, this flight has already been delayed be five minuets, we don’t wish to delay any longer

Selena: I’m getting off then

Lena: Please Miss stay seated

Selena: I need to wait for my husband, I’m getting off this plane whether you like it or not

Lena: If you don’t remain seated, you or your husband will not be flying with us, and we cannot allow you to leave as of security measures, if he misses the flight there is another one 2 hours later

Selena: we’re supposed to be going on our honeymoon

Lena: I’m sorry but I can’t help y.. (Getting confirmation from the pilot) Okay I’ll do so (To Selena) I have to go

Selena: But...

But the stewardess had gone back to her stand,

Lena: The time is now 13:20 stand by, as we are ready for take off, again please ensure you are seated, and wearing you belts

And that was it the plane took off, Selena’s heart went she had left Harry behind or he made her leave without him, either way Selena was disappointed, she looked upon the empty seat beside her once again before turning to look out of the window in which she saw the world beneath her becoming smaller and smaller, she just hoped Harry was waiting for the next flight. But one question pooped into her head ‘why hadn’t he called, was he waiting for her to make to move or had he just gone for good, taken her for a ride, that thought just made tears run down her cheeks, had she really been a fool again.



To take her mind off things, for at least a second, she called up her mam, to see how her daughter was doing, she pulled put her mobile from her handbag and pressed call on her mam’s home number, it took a while for someone to answer.

Selena: Mam

Norma: Selena, hi

Selena: Hiya.. I’m just

Norma: So how did the wedding go?

Selena: Fantastic, everything was perfect, I couldn’t ask for anything better; I just wish you were there too

Norma: well you know I couldn’t come and that’s great

Selena: I know...

Norma: You don’t seem to happy

Selena: I am, its just I’m tired still been a really long week

Norma: husband keeping you awake

Selena: no... Nothing like that at all

Norma: they why do you sound upset

Selena: mam, I’m not upset I only called to see how Theresa was doing

Norma: Oh right, well she’s fine, bonding with her Grandma very well

Selena: good, and

Norma: and what

Selena: and has there been anything wrong with her that I should know about

Norma: no, I just think she misses her mam and dad

Selena: mmm

With her mam saying, her daughter was missing her and Harry that thought upset her and she just wanted to cry

Selena: (trembling) look mam I’ve got to go

Norma: (noticing a tremble in Selena’s voice) okay, look if anything’s wrong you will tell me

Selena: of course, see ya

Norma: bye...



Once Selena had put her mobile to the side, she burst into tears Harry, wasn’t there and what was she to tell her daughter if he never did come back to her. Staring out the window she tried to get her mind off of him, but she couldn’t he was the love of her life, but there was not text or missed call on her phone, she felt her dreams were shattered.

However, she needed to know why, she decided to call upon Harry, the phone rang and rang but then went through to answer machine

Harry’s answer machine: This is Orange the person you have called is not available at the moment; please leave a message after the tone

Selena: (crying) Harry... Harry, where are you? Please I need to know... look why didn’t you just come with me or asked me to stay with you... I miss you Harry.... you haven’t called me or even bothered to tell me.. I’m supposed to be your wife or doesn’t that mean anything.. I love you... just tell me you haven’t gone off with Lara please just call me, if not for me for our daughter’s sake (Selena’s pauses and just cries) I should have waited at the airport for you, but I got told to board, they wouldn’t even hold the plane for you.. But what the hell, you’re not there are you... I’m here on my own; it looks like our honeymoon is going to be a waste when it’s just me ey? I really thought you loved me, you said you wouldn’t do this to me... and you have, you lied to me.... I can’t believe I was a fool yet again.... I was so happy loving you having you around.. I thought we could never get here.... come on Harry this isn’t you call me please

Selena hung up tears still streaming down her face, she tried to stop crying in order to stop herself getting ill, and becoming to breathless but it was hard, she loved Harry more than anything it was mutual for her to feel that as she always had even when she was with Will she always had those feelings for him she just never acted upon them, but now she could and it was breaking her heart to think he had left her for someone who hated her, someone who Harry had a relationship with, someone who wasn’t happy for her to be with him.

The stewardess Lena could see that Selena was in some sort of distress and so she came over to her to see what was wrong; she sat down in the seat beside her, Selena just stared out the window the whole time not wanting her tears to be shown.

Lena: Hey are you okay

Selena: what does it look like?

Lena: stupid question hey

Selena: a bit

Lena: is there anything I can do for you

Selena: unless you can tell me why my so called husband isn’t here or returning my calls no

Lena: Oh right... you’re husband what’s he like

Selena: well I would say the most charming, loving man I’ve ever met but right now I think he’s a complete loser and I hate him,

Lena: I’m sure you don’t mean that

Selena: right now I do... we’ve not even been married 24 hours and he’s gone and left me.. We’re supposed to be going on our honeymoon

Lena: you don’t know that, he could have got held up

Selena: At the minuet, I don’t know anything apart from the fact that as much as I hate him, I love him, I just fear now that he’s going to be like my ex- husband, he cheated on me within 2 months of marriage

Lena: aww, but does this bloke love you

Selena: he says he does, but right now I think he doesn’t, he normally calls me if he’s not going to be somewhere with me

Lena: Oh, I wish I could help you there.. Would you like a tissue?

Selena: no... I just want to be on my own

Lena: Okay, if you need anything... I can get one of my colleges to cover for me,

Selena: its fine, honestly, I’m just going to try and call him in half an hour of something

Just caught up with the latest, Can't beleive Harry isn't with her.
What are they like!

ah... but (I can't be that mean can I)

Half an hour later Selena was still in tears, she was still looking out of the widow at the clouds before her, tears were still in her eyes, she quickly made a glance as the people across the other side of the plane, it was a young couple so loved up this made Selena well up and cry more deeper than she already had been, she turned back to face the widow, and curled herself up, a man from the behind seats had seen enough crying from this woman and decided to do something about it, but did they already know each other

Man: excuse me,

Selena: What

Man: I couldn’t help notice that you’re upset

Selena: state the obvious why don’t you

Man: Mm yeah

Selena was still looking out of the window, she hadn’t recognised the mans voice

Man: I couldn’t help over hearing this is about your husband

Selena: It will probably be Ex husband by the time I see him,

Man: because of this

Selena: yes... look you don’t even know me you don’t know how much heartbreak I have suffered and I can’ take it anymore, I thought now I was with him it wouldn’t happen to me

Man: I’m sure he never set out to get you upset

Selena: never set out to but he has

The man’s voice still hadn’t been registered with Selena, and she still hadn’t reverted her vision from out of the window, so the man placed his hand on Selena’s shoulder

Man: I’m sure things will be fine

Selena: don’t touch me

With that, Selena turned around and looked at the man....

Selena: Harry

Harry: yes

Selena: I don’t believe you... Do you have any idea of what you’ve put me through?

Harry: I can only guess

Selena: no... no, you’re not getting away with this, I thought you left me, for someone else.. Well Lara... How could you do this to me, you’ve not returned my calls or anything, why?

Harry: I just needed to make sure you really love me, and why would I leave you for Lara

Selena: that really takes it to the limits to get to know how your wife really feels

Harry: I’m sorry

Selena: That isn’t enough...

Harry sits down on the seat next to Selena, she just looks at him through her tear stained eyes

Harry: what will be enough to make you realise I’m sorry, I was going to surprise you

Selena: to damn right you have... I just hate you more than anything right now

Harry: you don’t mean that

Selena: don’t I

Harry: I know you don’t

Harry puts his hand on Selena’s face; with the other, he pushes her hair behind her ear, this instantly made Selena loose her hate for him, she looked at him in the eye and realised he didn’t mean it and before she knew it they were kissing passionately, but once it was over Selena leant into Harry who had her arm around her

Selena: you’re unbelievable do you know that

Harry: what do you mean?

Selena: you do this to me, yet I can forgive you just like that

Harry: maybe because you love me too much

Selena: I know I do

Harry: would you have really divorced me

Selena: what

Harry: you said the next time you saw your husband he will be the ex after doing this

Selena: well I haven’t suggested it have I, of course I wouldn’t divorce you

Harry: I really love you Selena

Selena: I know, and I love you, but don’t you ever do this again

Harry: why.. Because you don’t want to be making phone calls to my answer machine

Selena: you did that on purpose, you can delete that now

Harry: or...

Selena: or, you know what I don’t care, but please don’t tell me you were sitting behind me

Harry: I was

Selena: seriously

Harry: yes

A few hours later...

Lena: Hello again, we are now about to land in the Maldivian airport, please stay seated

The plane began to hurtle down the runway, as this was now paradise the Maldives, the perfect place for passion and romance, Selena was still resting in Harry’s arms, she had totally forgiven him, she had actually fallen asleep as all the tears had made her sleepy, she didn’t even wake when the plane landed in the airport,

Lena: we have now landed passengers please remain seated until given instructions to leave the plane

Harry: (running his fingers through Selena’s hair) Selena... darling wake up

Selena: (stirring) Mmm Harry

Harry: hey come on we’ve landed

Selena: what so soon

Harry: we’ve been flying for a few hours you fell asleep

Selena: oh sorry

Harry: (laughing) no problem, just don’t be doing this in the next two weeks

Selena: I’ll try not to

They then kiss on the lips, just as Lena makes another announcement

Lena: Passengers in first class seating area only may now leave the plane and make there way through to the bag & luggage area

Harry: right then Mrs’ let’s go

Selena: (smiling) right away sweetheart

Selena and Harry, stand up, and pick up there hand luggage, Harry slipped his hand around her waist and Selena smiled, infact they were the last people the leave the plane and Lena was standing seeing all the passengers off.

Lena: so you found him them

Selena: yeah

Lena: I wouldn’t have thought he was your husband the way he was sitting behind you like that

Selena: I know tell me about, hey Harry you go ahead, I’ll be there in a sec

Harry: okay

Harry walks off and Selena turns to Lena

Selena: he doesn’t know how much trouble he is in

Lena: trouble, you seemed pretty you know loved up a while ago

Selena: yeah well, he....

Lena: (getting confirmation through ear peace) look I’m sorry but we need to clean the plane

Selena: Oh right, well thanks it was nice to have someone to talk to

Lena: its part of the job
