DIANNE'S POV~
"Hey babe." I heard joe say.
"Morning Joe." I smiled. I wrapped my arms around Joe and pulled him into a hug.
"I love you Di." He said.
"I love you too." I replied as we separated.
I went down and made us both a coffee before Tegan came through to us both. "Hey princess." He smiled as he picked her up. Seeing the two of them together still pierces my heart directly.
"What d'you wanna do today joe?" I asked whilst Tegan was watching tv.
"I don't mind." He replied. "I'm happy just being at home with you."
I laughed. "You've changed so much. You used to want to go out everyday and now you're happy to sit at home watching kids tv."
"I have, haven't I." He replied with a smile. He got up and kissed my forehead. "I can't believe we were doing strictly this time 3 years ago." He said. I smiled at him.
"Has it really been that long?" I asked.
"Yep, and it's been the best 3 years of my life." He replied.
"Same here. I still can't quite believe I have 3 children." I responded.
He pulled me into a hug and I moved across to sit on his lap.
As we were reminiscing, a message appeared on my phone.

Dianne Sugg,
we have an open spot on the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special
and we would like you to fill it alongside your husband.
This is an amazing opportunity to dance alongside some of your ex-costars and friends
and we really hope you consider it.
We understand that you may be busy with your family
and so have decided to pre-film the show.
Filming will take place on December 22nd.
Please let us know if you can make it.
The Strictly team.

It was an immediate yes. How could I pass up an opportunity to dance on Strictly again?
"Have you just got that text too?" I asked Joe.
"Yeah. What d'you wanna do?" He questioned.
"I think I wanna do it. I haven't danced professionally for ages and to be honest, I kinda miss it." I said.
"I'll say yes. I'd do anything to see you dance. I love it when you're happy." He replied
"Only if you're sure." I responded.
We both quickly typed a reply and sent it. "I love you Joe" I said
"I love you too. I love all four of you." He replied. "All of this happened because of Strictly, and now we're going back." He continued.
"Our rainbow connection." I responded, making us both smile. We kissed before carrying on with our normal lives.

DECEMBER 22 2021
"You ready?" I asked.
"Yeah, lets do this." He replied. I was shaking but it was probably nothing compared to what Joe was feeling.
It got to 4 and we started filming.

"And now they may not have won their series three years ago, but hoping for that victory tonight it's Joe Sugg and his partner, and wife may I add, Dianne."
Claudia said as we walked out ready to dance. We were doing a charleston, similar to our week two dance, but to a different song.

We finished the dance as the people around us started to chant. "KISS, KISS, KISS," they all shouted like children. We both laughed before he kissed my cheek. Everybody "awed" as we smiled.
"Oh grow up, the majority of you were at our wedding!" Joe smiled.
"Yeah but it's cute." Tess said walking over to us.

We waited for the judges' comments before joining Claudia on the balcony.
"That was so sweet!" She smiled. "Anyway, the judges have their scores."

Craig

Darcey

Shirley

And Bruno

"We did it Joe!" I screamed as I jumped into his arms. "We got 40!"
"I know Dianne, I love you so much." He said, lifting me up.
He put me down and they cut to Tess and Claudia on the dance floor. We ran down the steps and to Zoe. Who was looking after the kids in the crowd.
"Hey Zoe. I shouted over the music as Joe hugged Tegan.
"Hey Dianne, that was amazing!" She replied.
It truly was. I haven't danced since I was on strictly last year and I really enjoyed it.
I hugged Zoe and Tegan and had a cuddle with the babies before we were called back upstairs to film the results.
"Oh Dianne!" Zoë called after me as I left.
"What?" I replied spinning round.
Joe started to laugh.
"What?" I repeated.
"You might wanna look at your shoulder." He said.
James had been sick all over me.
"Oh Joe, we don't have enough time to clean up, we need to get upstairs quickly." I responded.
"I'll go up and tell them what's wrong. Go get yourself cleaned up." He replied.
"You sure?" I asked.
"Yeah, go on." He replied.

JOE'S POV~
I went upstairs as the lights shone down on us. "Where is she, everything alright?" Claudia asked.
"Yeah yeah she's fine, babies." I hinted, I think she got the hint. She nodded.

"The winners of this year's Strictly Christmas Special are,"Tess' voice boomed through the speakers."






"JOE AND DIANNE!" She cried.

I was so happy. We did it. Dianne ran up to me and leaped into my arms. "We did it Joe, we won." She shouted over the screams from the crowd.
"We did! I love you Dianne." I said as she cuddled into my chest.
Out of the corner of my eye and saw Zoe struggling with the babies. She was trying to hold Tegan back but it was no use, she ran onto the floor and into Dianne's arms.
I love my strictly family.

A/N hiii so I'm not dead. I had major writers block whilst writing this and it took so long to write. Sorry if it's not the best because I didn't know what to write 😭😂
