Robyn's P.O.V.
"Here comes the bride-to-be and her bundle of joy!" Dylan cheered, as I entered the breakfast hall.

"Hey guys!" I grinned as everyone got up to give me a hug.

"You still sleepy? We saw Thomas carry you in last night!" Georgie giggled, breaking away from me.

"What? He carried me? I thought I'd been to sleepy to remember coming in!" I laughed.

"Yeah! It looked like a scene out of Sleeping Beauty or something!" Kaya laughed as I sat down next to her, "Where is Prince Charming anyway?" Before I could reply, Thomas came into the room.

"Yay! Here's Robyn's second bundle of trouble!" Dylan grinned, as Thomas ruffled his hair, "Hey dude! Do you have any idea how long it took me to do this hair?" Laughing, Thomas bent down and kissed me.

"Morning love!" He grinned, sitting down and pouring tea, "Sleep well?"

"Yeah thanks!" I grinned, turning to look at Parker. Thankfully, I fed him earlier, so he was very quiet this morning.

"Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy?" I laughed, tickling Parker under his chin. As I did, a big smile formed on his little face.

"Oh my God Thomas!" I exclaimed, causing Thomas to look at Parker. A large grin grew on his face.

"He's smiling! His first smile!" I laughed, tickling him under the chin again. He smiled even more, his eyes sparkling in the sunlight from the window.

"Say cheese!" Thomas grinned, pointing his phone at me and Parker. Knowing that I probably looked awful, I leant down and kissed Parker on the cheek to avoid getting much of my face in the picture.

"Aw that's beautiful!" Thomas beamed, handing me the phone. The picture was perfect. During the day, more and more people arrived. Both our parents and sisters turned up in the afternoon, and that meant that I could give Parker to them so that I could get ready for tonight. Instead of having a hen party and a stag night, Will and Kaya had organised a surprise for all of us to do together. We were told to wear warm clothes, and boots if possible. Slightly confused, Thomas and I got ready and headed outside onto the gravel driveway.

"Follow us!" Kaya called, as she began heading down the driveway and onto a side footpath. It was very dark now, but there were small lights in the ground that lit up the pathway for us. We all followed, and soon we arrived at a stable. And outside the stable were ten black horses.

"Surprise!" Will cheered, getting on one of them, "Now this time, I promise not to gallop!" We all burst into laughter, except for Georgie, Alex, Ava and Charlie who were slightly confused.

"Oh Will this is amazing!" I gasped, hauling myself up onto one of the horses. They were beautiful! Once again, Dylan had trouble getting on his horse and Ki Hong had to help h get on. Laughing, we all began following Will and Kaya down a forest track. The moon was bright tonight, and seeing as there wasn't a single cloud in the sky, it shone a pale spotlight down on us. The wooded track soon opened up onto a wide sandy beach, where the waves lapped quietly at the sand.

"Oh wow!" I gasped as we headed down onto the beach.

"This is amazing!" Ava called from behind us.

"Yeah it is!" Thomas agreed.

"Well, that's not the best bit!" Will grinned in the moonlight. Clicking his tongue and flicking his reins, his horse started into a gallop. Laughing, we all did the same and followed him towards the sea. I honestly felt as if I was in a film. Our horses galloped along the seafront, their hooves splashing in the water. It was as if everything was in slow motion as we rode. I couldn't help but laugh - this was beyond magical. Thomas was now riding beside me, and because everyone else was up ahead, I slowed my horse down to a walk. Thomas did the same, and walked his horse around mine, circling us in the water. Grinning, he leant forward and smashed his lips to mine. With one hand on the side of my face, he deepened the kiss, pulling away every so often as he did. That only made me want more, so I pulled him closer and wrapped one arm around his neck. Suddenly, loud whoops and cheers broke out, and looking round we saw everyone clapping at the pair of us. Grinning like mad, Thomas turned back to me.

"I love you, Robyn!" He whispered, before pressing his lips to mine again. I smiled as we kissed.

"I love you too!"
