Joe and Dianne's Strictly Journey

Chapter 23 - The text

Dianne's POV
It was Thursday and the last day of training for our samba, Joe and I have spent the last couple of nights in our own apartments and I beginning to miss him even though we see each other all day.

"Morning" I smile as I walk into the studio and wrap my arms around him

"Finally you're here" he smirked

"I'm not even late" I laughed

"I think I'll stay at yours tonight, if that's okay with you" he grins

"Well someone missed me" I teased

"Hey, stop acting like you haven't missed me to" he says

"I would love you to stay" I place a kiss on his lips

"Come on we got training to do" I smile pulling away from him and dragging him to the starting position.

The music starts to play and we dance, I am having the best time with this dance because it's so energetic. I am working him extra hard this week only because I know it's Blackpool next week, Joe needs to get there for his Nan. 

"Joe it's starting to come together" I say at about 1:30

"Time for lunch" he suggests I nod my head grab my bag and we head out to get some food.

We end up going to a little cafe, and Joe goes up to the counter and orders our food. As I'm waiting I here Joe's phone go off, normally I wouldn't look but I just checked to see who it was. It was a Text message from Byron.

You told Dianne Yet ??

I see Joe grabbing the tray to walk over so I quickly put his phone down, and try to act like I didn't see anything but what does he need to tell me, is he hiding something ?

Joe's POV
I come back to the table with our food and Dianne looked stressed, I think it was the dance.

"You good ?" I ask

"Yeah, fine" she smiles

I pick up my phone and see that I have a text from Byron.

Have you told Dianne yet ??

I message him back a quick

No, waiting for the right time and she's pretty stressed about the dance right now.

I was talking to Byron about Stacey telling me how she likes me and how she messages me non stop. Byron thinks I need to tell Di but I'm just waiting for the right time. I sigh a little to loud.

"Everything okay" She Asks me

"Absolutely fine" I smile and drink my coffee

After our food and a lovely little lunch Date we head back to rehearsals but something seems to be bothering Dianne ever since we sat down at the cafe.

"Ready to go" she says in a mood

"Yeah" I say hoping it will just blow off

After our run through Di says me "I need a minute outside"

"I'll come..." but before I could finish Dianne buys in

"Alone Joe" she stomps off

I debate on wether to follow her or not, I decide to wait and give her a bit of space.

Back to Dianne's POV
I leave Joe alone and sit outside, I take my phone out and ring Amy, she will know what to do.

Amy: Hey Di
Dianne: I need your help
Amy: Of course, with what ??

I explain to Amy what I saw on Joe's Phone

Amy: Di, you have to be honest with him, tell him you saw it and let him explain.
Dianne: your right I'll do it now, he will wonder why I care outside anyway
Amy: let me know how it goes
Dianne: will do

Joe walks outside confused obviously looking for me.

Amy: Bye
Dianne: Bye

"Who was that ?" He asks leaning against the door

"Amy" i say getting up

"Oh" he says

"What do you want Joe" I storm past him back into the studio

"Di, you know what I want, I want to if your okay and why just left training, you can tell me anything" he grabs hold of my hands and I look away wiping a tear from face, I know I'm overeating.

"I saw the text from Byron on your phone" I confess

"Ah, look I was waiting for the right time to tell you" he says making me worried

"Carry on" I say

"Basically, just before we started dating, Stacey confessed she had feelings for me and has be non stop trying to get hold of me ever since but I didn't want to worry you cause I'm not into her promise"
He explained

I turned to look at him and smiled "thank God, I thought you were going to break up with me"

"Never" he places a kiss on my lips
