Strictly '18

-Joe-
We got back to my house and I set up the TV in my bedroom with YouTube so Dianne could find the video she wanted to watch. Whilst she did that, I got us a load of snacks and other blankets to have whilst we were in my room.

I got us popcorn, Pringles and dips, a box of chocolates and a bag of Haribos that I had in my cupboard. I also got us some bottles of water and took it all upstairs to her. She was sat on the bed cross-legged with a video ready to play.

"You took your time, Suggy." She grinned as she had the balloon prank on Caspar lined up on the TV.

"Of course I took my time, I was getting all of this!" I dropped everything onto the bed and sat beside her.

"Oh... Pringles. I haven't had those in ages!" She grinned.

"Oi! Not yet. We are get all comfort and cuddled up in the blankets before we start on the food." I told her. She groaned in response as she started unfolding blankets. I got changed into my tracksuit bottoms and took off my T-shirt. I got into bed. Dianne had already changed and she snuggled close to me.

"How are you always warm?" She chuckled.

"I have no idea. I'm just a warm hearted guy!" I chuckled. "Anyway, I see you've helped yourself to some of my clothes."

I looked down at her as I laughed. She blushed softly.

"Yeah, obviously all my stuff was dirty. And your stuff is clean, comfortable and it smells like you."

"Well I'm happy that your happy. That's all that matters to me." I smiled down to her. She blushed more and hid her face. "Awh I wanna see your beautiful face, Di."

She showed her face again so I kissed her. I felt her relax as she kissed me back. She sat back and I opened my eyes. She was smiling widely as she sat up and reached the TV remote. I grabbed some snacks and held her close as she pressed play on the first video.

-a couple hours later-
Dianne had become obsessed with my videos and she had been watching them non-stop. I know a fell asleep for about twenty minutes and when I woke up, she was still watching my videos.

"Joe... you were so adorable when you were younger. I love how your hair was!" She grinned as she ruffled my red hair.

"I don't look that different, surely?" I frowned.

"Yeah, your hair was definitely lighter. But I like it now."

"Of course it was lighter. It's blooming red now!" I chuckled as I wrapped my arm around her and kissed the top of her head. "What time is it?"

"Time for you to get a watch, Mr. Sugg!" She laughed.

"Ha. Ha. Very funny." I found my phone and looked at the time. "It's nearly twenty to six. Shall I post our announcement?"

"Yeah. Let's do it!" She grinned.

"Okay. I'm gonna vlog it because I might talk about it in a video. I'm not sure yet." I scrambled around to find my camera and started filming. "Ready, Di?"

She nodded as I filmed her and unlocked my phone. I passed her the camera to film me as I opened Instagram and went to my drafts.

"Okay, after the countdown."

"3... 2... 1..." we both said together. I pressed post and the picture was then online. She turned the camera to me and I smiled nervously.

"Okay. No going back. It's out there now. We will come back in a bit and read some comments, yeah?" I said to the camera.

"Yeah. See ya later!" Dianne said excitedly as she turned the camera to her face. Afterwards, I helped her stop recording and turn it off.

She put the camera on the bedside table and snuggled close to me. I wrapped my arms around her and held her protectively.

"You're all mine now. Guess I'm never letting you go. Sorry Mark and Rina. Dianne's not coming back to Australia anymore." I chuckled.

"Who are you talking to?" She giggled.

"Don't know really. The house I guess." I laughed. I relaxed with her in my arms until I heard my phone start ringing.

I found my phone and saw who it was. It was Oli calling me so I answered it.

J: Hello?
O: Hey, bro. How's it going?
J: Everything's good man. What about you?
O: I'm great, bro. I've just seen your post. You've decided to finally go public then?
J: Yeah. Me and Di don't like hiding it from the fans.
O: No, of course that makes sense. Anyway, I was just calling to find out if you were still planning on coming to Winter Wonderland with me, Britt and Josh. There might be a couple others. I'm not sure yet.
J: I'll just ask Di, hold on
O: Oh is she there? Tell her I said hi.

"It's Oli. He says hi." I chuckled. "He was calling to find out if we still wanted to go to Winter Wonderland with him and a couple other people. Still fancy it?"

"Of course! I don't think I've ever been before." She grinned. "And hey Oli!"

J: Not sure if you heard but she says hey.
O: Yeah I heard her. So what do you say, you coming or not?
J: Yeah, we're both up for it. What time do you wanna meet and where?
O: Do you mind if I say we meet at yours? You live closest to it, and in all honesty, Josh's place is a tip and Britt's hotel isn't the best place for a group of people to meet.
J: Okay. It actually gives us a reason to unpack from Blackpool and tidy the place up a bit.
O: Okay, nice. How about we say quarter to seven, meeting at yours?
J: Good shout. You post it on the group chat.
O: Sure, I'll do it now.
J: Okay. I'll see you later then.
O: Okay, see you later. Bye.
J: Bye.

"Bye!" Dianne shouted as I hung up.

"You're so loud it's ridiculous..." I complained playfully.

"Yeah but you love me really!" She giggled. I smiled.

"Yeah I do. I love you really." She hugged me and kissed me. "We better start getting ready. We've got like an hour to get this place ready and to get ourselves ready."

"Fine. Okay." She groaned as she got out of bed. "Can I keep these clothes? Can they be my pyjamas when I stay round?"

"Of course. And I suppose you're gonna want some clothes as pyjamas at your place too?" I chuckled.

"Yep. And a hoodie. I know which one I want too!" She grinned as she ran over to my wardrobe.

"Okay. Once you've done that, start getting ready. I'll start tidying downstairs whilst you start that."
