New beginnings
My first fanfic eva! please review, constructive criticism only, no fire. Thought we should retern to the old series, and how series 5 SHOULD of happened, so plenty of Rhis.
The alarm beeped impatiently and loudly, waking the two figures in the bed, although not at the same time. Rachel had never had to employ the use of an alarm clock, so, unused to the loud noise woke up immediately, heart racing. But she didn't move she felt safe and snug with Chris' arms wrapped around her protectively. Then, Rachel remembered why the alarm clock was beeping, school and work, she thought, sighing inwardly, quickly she turned over to shut the alarm off, the movement caused her boyfriend to wake up, a grin on his face as his beautiful eyes focussed on her.
"Morning" he said, using his arms to reach behind him and blindly turn off the alarm. Rachel groaned, throwing herself back down on the pillow, for her, the worst days were the start and end of term. Chris' grin widened. "And there was me thinking you actually enjoyed work" he said, snuggling back up to her and kissing the back of her neck, he lay there for a few minutes before getting up and out of bed. He stood up rotating his neck from left to right and rotating his shoulders. Rachel propped herself up to watch. Gently she reached out and traced one of the many scars running along his back. She frowned slightly as she felt him involuntarily flinch under her touch.
"You ever going to tell me how you got to be like this?" she whispered, just loud enough for him to hear.
"I better get Philip up" Chris said sharply, he hated people taking any notice of his scars, that was, unless it was in some sort of competition, which he nearly always won. Rachel sighed; she just wished that her boyfriend would open up about his past. But then, she thought quietly, he wasn't the only ones keeping secrets. It felt wrong that people in the staffroom and most the kids in the school appeared to know more about her past. He probably already knew, but, she just didn't know how he would react to being sat down and told, Eddie had wanted to resign from his teaching post, and they had just been friends, with a good working relationship. A thump issued through the house, Rachel giggled quietly to herself, Chris could be a bit unorthodox with his methods of getting Philip up, giving him two warnings before throwing him out of bed, but it worked, and Rachel knew that he would never intentionally hurt Philip. The bedroom door opened, to reveal Chris with a cheeky grin on his face.
"Miss Mason I'm afraid your going to have to get up right now, or I might to something I will regret later" he said innocently before coming over towards the bed, Rachel sprung up, and leapt into the bathroom, closing the door on Chris's crestfallen face.
They took seperate routes to school, mainly because apart from Philip Rachel didn't want anybody else to know, Chris thought alike with that, she didn't want anybody thinking she was making a habit out of sleeping with deputies, and Chris didn't want them thinking he was trying to move up by sleeping with his boss. Also, although Rachel would never admit it to Chris, it made the whole thing slightly more fun, and exciting.
please review, let me know if I should carry it on or not. Its my first fanfiction so be nice.
