/I DONT OWN THESE CHARACTERS

Harriet lay peacefully on Cains chest, it was morning now and the sun peeked through the hundred year old curtains in Cains room.

He sat with his chin resting on top of her head as he played with her hair stroking the curls softly and letting them wrap around each finger. "Weird how the sun will rise each morning no matter what changes" Cain said softly as his lips brushed against her forehead between each word. Harriet smirked "that's a bit deep even for you Cain" she mocked him, speaking quietly as not to wake anybody else in the house. He smirked "are you mocking me vicar?" he was sitting back now his arm relaxed behind his head as she rested on his chest, both watching the light peak more and more from behind the curtain, while his other arm lay peacefully on her shoulder, fingers stroking the skin on her arm. "Had a chat with debs yesterday when I went to walk her home from the pub" Cain said lightly and Harriet looked at him, panic shot across her face "... she told me about the chat you had with Moira" he said awkwardly. Harriet flushed red slightly embarrassed. "Debbie said I was a very lucky man, that you were really respectful and kind, but you didn't need to do that Harriet... even if this wasn't what it is, I wouldn't be with Moira, it's done" Cain was looking in her eyes now. And Harriet nodded lightly. "Oh and one other thing" he placed his hand on her face running his thumb over her cheek softly he looked at her and smiled in the way Cain saved only for Harriet, "your not the only one falling deeper in this" then he pulled her to him entangling his legs in hers as he pressed a passionate kiss to her mouth.

Cain drifted back off to sleep, when he woke she was standing by the window doing her shirt up. ''sneaking off?'' he teased her. She shook her head realising Cain was awake ''I've got to get back, do the walk of shame, go to work… you know how it is'' she joked. Cain jumped up sliding his jeans on, Harriet looked at him, confused. ''nobody should have to do the walk of shame alone'' he smiled buttoning his shirt, and Harriet smiled back.

After breakfast with the dingles, and Cain part admiting she was his girlfriend Harriet felt good. She'd been home, showerd and was now on her way to work, today was going to be a long day, but it was friday and that normally meant the last day of work for her till Sunday.

After work she found herself sat in the pub, like most Fridays. Unlike most Fridays today had been really hard as she found herself comforting Rhona, she couldn't imagine the pain that she was going through. She wasn't even mad that Rhona had come onto Cain. Cain aproached where she was sitting ''penny for your thoughts?'' he smiled and she frowned ''You'd break the bank'' she didn't like to admit it but sometimes her job did bring her down.

Cain slid his fingers into hers under the table ''I wasn't making eyes at her, she was just drunk… probably thought the bar chair was making eyes at her too'' he rolled his eyes and Harriet smiled half heartedly. ''I know you wasn't Cain, it's fine honestly''. Cain smiled before looking at his watch ''It's getting late… Shall we go back to yours? Maybe watch a film?..'' he kissed her neck lightly ''maybe get to bed early?'' he smirked. Harriet rolled her eyes pulling him by his hand out the pub.

It was raining outside, and Cain slid his jacket off covering it over Harriets shoulders. ''Thanks'' she smiled, Cain pulled her close to him as they walked, his arm around her waist. ''You know that thing I said about falling...'' Cain started and Harriet looked at him, confused. ''Well to be honest I think it might be a bit late for that…''
