If you haven’t already done so, please read the prequels before reading Passions: 1. All My Exes myhourglass.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=newkpatchfic&action=display&thread=51&page=12. First Love, Last Love myhourglass.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=newkpatchfic&action=display&thread=275&page=13. Another World myhourglass.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=newkpatchfic&action=display&thread=576&page=14. Search for Tomorrow myhourglass.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=newkpatchfic&action=display&thread=838&page=1*Prologue* As you recall, in the last chapter of Search for Tomorrow ... WEST END APARTMENT Philip continues to access information on his iPhone when it goes dead. Philip: Damn! Battery needs charging. He plugs the phone into the charger, then calls to Chloe.Philip: Hey Chloe, I’m going to borrow your iPad. Philip picks up Chloe’s iPad which is in “sleep” mode and notices that it is automatically displaying photos. The first picture is a photo of Wesley in his playpen. The photo makes Philip smile. The next picture is Chloe holding Wesley looking into the camera. The next picture is one of Philip holding Wesley, the one Chloe showed him a few weeks ago. After that photo is a picture of Chloe, Philip and Wesley together, and another one, and another one after that. Philip’s brow knits as he touches the screen to stop the automatic rotation of the photos. The iPad's "wallpaper" is a photo of him and Chloe. Philip feels himself getting uncomfortable as he notices a file that says “Philip’s last email.” He hesitantly clicks on the document and it opens. He reads it.
Damn. We’re still circling. I wish this plane would land already. Feels like an eternity and I’m getting increasingly antsy. I can’t wait to be home with you and Wesley. With my family. Did I ever tell you that some of the staff at Titan call you my instant family? How crazy is that? Instant? Not hardly. It took a lot of work to get us back together and a little divine intervention. When I think about all the roads we took, the detours, the breakdowns, the breakups, all the years since we first fell in love ... to finally be together, to finally be married ... you know what? It was worth it. I love you and I can’t even put into words the depth of my feelings for you and Wesley. Chloe, you’ve taken my breath away ever since I saw you in that red dress at the Last Blast dance. I don’t say it often enough, do I? Whether we’re together or apart, all I have to do is think of you and I feel like a tidal wave is washing over me. I’m so happy I sometimes feel like I could explode. Am I rambling? Sorry. I’m just killing time until the plane lands. Until I’m holding you in my arms again. I can’t wait. It won’t be long.
Philip takes a deep breath and tries to comprehend all the information he just learned. Chloe steps out of the bathroom dressed in a robe with her hair in a towel. He looks at her.Chloe: Philip, what’s the matter? Passions continues immediately in the next post ... ______________________________________ Copyright ©2011 kpatch. All rights reserved. |

WEST END APARTMENT, BELIZE
Philip takes a deep breath and tries to comprehend all the information he just learned. Chloe steps out of the bathroom dressed in a robe with her hair in a towel. He looks at her.
Chloe: Philip, what’s the matter?
Chloe sees that Philip is holding her iPad and realizes he must have seen the photos.
Chloe: Philip, I can explain ...
Philip puts the iPad down and takes a step toward Chloe. He gently takes the towel off of her hair and lets it fall to the floor. He touches her wet hair with his fingertips. Chloe feels her heart beating faster and faster as Philip runs his fingers through her hair. Finally, Philip quietly says two words.
Philip: I remember.
Readers, please watch the special video (which was lovingly created by shi22 and jkjpatch exclusively for this story) to see what Philip remembers.
To be continued ...

Definitely try to watch the video when you can. It's well worth your time if you are a Philip and/or Chloe fan. Plus we worked really hard on it. |

I have to admit. That was by far the best Phloe video I have ever ever seen. I am crying and it absolutely makes me hate Dena Higley even more for ruining them. They belong together and I seriously hope that when Chloe leaves Salem, they are going to send her to Chicago with Philip and Parker. I will be so angry if they don't at least reunite them together.

After watching this video, I didn't even want to watch Days today. I am with you GG!!! TPTB were so stupid to waste the many opportunities for PHLOE. I was relieved that none of Chloe's s/l was on today. It would have been too heartbreaking to watch after this beautiful video! I am looking forward to tomorrow's chapter!!

WEST END APARTMENT
Philip takes a deep breath and tries to comprehend all the information he just learned. Chloe steps out of the bathroom dressed in a robe with her hair in a towel. He looks at her.
Chloe: Philip, what’s the matter?
Chloe sees that Philip is holding her iPad and realizes he must have seen the photos.
Chloe: Philip, I can explain ...
Philip puts the iPad down and takes a step toward Chloe. He gently takes the towel off of her hair and lets it fall to the floor. He touches her wet hair with his fingertips. Chloe feels her heart beating faster and faster as Philip runs his fingers through her hair. Finally, Philip quietly says two words.
Philip: I remember.
Philip pulls Chloe toward him until their lips meet. He kisses her gently at first, and then harder and harder, like he can’t get enough. She slides her arms around him and they kiss like they’ve never kissed before. Philip lifts Chloe in his arms, carries her into the bedroom, and lays her on the bed. He unties her robe, opens it, and kisses every part of her body. As the ecstacy becomes almost too intense, she pulls him inside her.
Philip: I love you Chloe.
Chloe: Oh Philip, I’ve waited so long to hear you say those words again.
They become one as they kiss again. A wave of emotion overcomes both of them and, as they finish making love, both of them are crying. Philip rests his head on Chloe’s chest and she strokes his hair. He lifts his head and looks at her.
Philip: Oh my god. I am sooo sorry. I’m so sorry Chloe.
Chloe: You have nothing to be sorry for.
He takes her in his arms and cradles her head to his chest.
Philip: But I love you so much. How could I have forgotten? How did I not remember being married to you?
Chloe: There's so much I've been wanting to tell you. Philip, your parents ... they had you brainwashed.
Philip: Brainwashed???
Chloe: They wanted you and Wesley to be as far away from me as possible. I don’t know how they arranged the fire and the explosion, but they managed to kidnap you and have you brainwashed.
Philip: I would say I don’t believe you, but since we’re talking about Kate and Victor, I wouldn’t put it past them. I mean, I know what they did to Lucas and Sami ... and to you in the past, but they never targeted me before.
Chloe [sarcastically]: It’s only because they love you so much.
Philip: They’re going to pay. They are not getting away with this.
Philip’s cell phone rings and he heads into the living room to get it. He looks at the text message on the screen as he walks back into the bedroom.
Philip: We’ve got an address. Let’s go get our son.
To be continued Monday...
