What a little witch Belle is! I would LOVE to smack her silly.
Thanks for another great chapter.
I can wait for Belle to get what is coming to her!
Looking forward to the next installment when you're able to post it!

LATER, IN BED
Chloe was resting her head on Philip’s chest and his arms were around her.
Chloe: Philip, what did you mean when you said you have some time off from work?
Philip: Why do you ask?
Chloe: I don’t know. I just got a vibe.
Philip: I guess I should tell you ... my father fired me.
Chloe’s eyes flew open wide. She quickly sat up and looked at him.
Chloe: He fired you? Because of me?
Philip: No. Because ... because of the fight me and Brady got into. In front of the board of directors.
Chloe: Oh Philip. You didn’t!
Philip: Yeah, well. I’m not proud of it, but it happened. Don’t look so worried.
Chloe: But you don’t have a job. You love your job.
Philip: This isn’t the first time my father fired me. He’ll hire me back. He always does.
Chloe: I wonder if he fired Brady too.
Philip: I don’t know. Hey, stop worrying. Let’s talk about something else.
Chloe: Okay. What do you want to do today?
Philip: I don't care ... as long as I'm doing it with you.
Chloe: What are my choices?
Philip: Well, we're supposed to be in hiding.
Chloe: We could make love all day.
Philip: Sign me up.
Chloe: Or ...
Chloe looked around the room.
Philip: We could do something to make this place more homey, since we’re gonna be here a while.
Philip: You mean like paint? Wallpaper? Carpeting?
Chloe: God, I hope we’re not here that long.
Philip: You tired of me already?
Chloe looked at Philip and smiled.
Chloe: Never. I just want us to be comfortable.
Philip: Ah. So you want to make this place more cozy.
Chloe: I didn’t know guys even had the word “cozy” in their vocabulary.
Philip: I was reading “How to Impress Your Girlfriend” on the plane.
Chloe: You were not.
Philip: There was a whole chapter on “cozy.”
Chloe rolled her eyes.
Chloe: Sure there was. Hmmm. So ... I’m your “girlfriend,” am I?
Philip: Chloe, you’re so much more to me than that. But right now ....
Chloe: I know. It’s complicated. For both of us. The reality is, you’re married and so am I. And right now, I’m the other woman.
Philip: Are you kidding me? You’re not the other woman. You’re the woman.
Chloe put her arms around Philip.
Chloe: Thank you, Philip. You always know just the right thing to say. ... Philip, do you ever feel guilty?
Philip: About?
Chloe: About us. About Belle.
Philip sighed and nodded.
Philip: Sometimes. Sometimes I feel guilty. Sometimes I feel hurt. Sometimes I feel angry. I mean, I really loved her.
Chloe: I know you did.
Philip: She was my first crush in high school. Until you came along, of course.
Chloe: And then I broke your heart.
Philip: I never thought I’d love anyone after you. And then ... and then there was Belle. And she was back in my life and I started to feel alive again, you know?
Chloe: I know.
Philip: But she obviously never gave me her whole heart. She never stopped loving Shawn.
Philip fell silent for a few minutes.
Chloe: You okay?
Philip smiled.
Philip: Yeah, I’m okay. I’ve got you. I’ve got you back. And I’m never gonna let you go. Never.
Chloe: You better not. Chloe smiled. Philip? Do you ever think about the night we were stranded here during that snowstorm?
Philip: Sure I do.
Chloe: Do you think it was fate that brought us here? Brought us back together?
Philip: Definitely. There was nothing random about it.
Chloe: That’s what I think too.
They kissed.
Chloe: So, you want to turn this place into a home, huh?
Philip: May as well.
Chloe: Oh!
Philip: What?
Chloe got out of bed naked and went to the hall closet. She came back with a large framed painting. It was a picture of two men in a rowboat fishing. She held it in front of her.
Chloe: I remembered seeing this picture in the closet when we were stranded here.
Philip: You like it?
Chloe: Um... It’s not a great work of art or anything. I mean I doubt you’d see it hanging in the Vienna Museum of Fine Arts, but there’s something so peaceful about it. It speaks to me.
Philip got out of bed naked and took the picture from Chloe.
Philip: If you like it, I like it. Where do you want to hang it?
Chloe: Here in the bedroom. On this wall. I want to wake up looking at it. It makes me feel hopeful for the future. Just like those fisherman are always hopeful they’ll hook the big one.
Philip: I’ll go look for a hammer and nails.
Chloe: I think you should get dressed first. I don’t want you ... injuring anything important.
To be continued ...

I'm glad Philip was honest about getting fired and about the fight at the board meeting. I really enjoyed seeing them happy.
