Previously on my fic… This is a continuation of the story "Rekindled Love". To summarize what happened in my previous story; Gina and Adam had been out the night before at a party. Gina stayed the night at his and they decided to give their relationship another shot. Elsewhere Ginas' cousin Andrea Peters, had been involved in a domestic with her husband, Andrew, who then went on the run. A gun was found in the possession of Andrew Peters which was later linked to the murder that Ginas' brother Richard was charged for.

Gina rolled onto her side and switched off the ringing alarm clock. It was five past seven in the morning, a lay in compared to what she was used to. She'd decided to take the morning off work so she could take Adam to the airport. He was leaving soon for Nigeria.

Well I'd better be getting up. She groaned. She looked to her right, the bed was empty but then she looked up, and saw Adam standing in the doorway holding a tray full of breakfast. She smiled at him. She loved Adam dearly and was so happy that they had decided to give it another go. Adam was going to cancel his trip to Nigeria, but Gina wanted him to go. She understood why he needed to go, and she also knew that she would still be here when he got back.

"Are you sure you don't mind me going away? I will cancel it now if you say you want me to stay." Adam said looking at Gina, hoping she would still be ok with their arrangements. He genuinely wouldn't go if she said she wanted him to stay.

"Adam, don't be daft. Of course I want you to go. You need to go and you would regret it if you didn't." Gina was going to miss him, but he promised to be back in about three months, or at least back in time for Christmas.

Adam sat next to Gina on the bed. He was about to kiss her when the phone rang. They both sighed and laughed. Gina leaned past him to pick up the receiver. Who can be ringing me at this time in the morning? I phoned the nic last night to tell them I'd be in later.

"Hello?" She answered, sounding a little irked. Knowing her luck there'd be some sort of crisis that couldn't wait until later.

"Hi Gina, it's Neil Manson. I'm sorry to phone you at home, I hope I didn't disturb you."

"No, of course not." Gina lied. She really didn't want to be bothered at the moment. She only had a few hours left with Adam and she wanted to spend every minute with him.

"I know you've booked this morning off but Jack needs to speak to you as soon as possible."

"Can it not wait until this afternoon?" She asked trying to get out of what ever it was that Jack and Neil wanted her to do.

"I suppose so, but you'll need to go see Jack as soon as you come in." Neil sounded rather annoyed that Gina wouldn't be coming in sooner, but she didn't care.

"Ok Neil I'll be in as soon as I can." She put the receiver down before he had a chance to object. She turned, looked at Adam, smiled and said,

"Now where were we?"
