So, basically this is Friday the 26th of July's episode where Carla tells Michelle that Peter is working at the factory. Bear with me on this one, its my first fanfiction. All characters belong to a ITV, no copyright infringement intended, whatever that means, haha. But, I hope it's okay.

*Michelle's P.O.V*

"Look, bringing Peter in makes sense. Especially now we're partners," said Carla in the factory office. Peter smiles and I scoff.

"And by partners, you mean..." I say, trailing off.

"I've signed over 49% of the business, obviously," says Carla like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

My mouth opens in shock and I turn around and pointing over to Peter who was sitting quietly in the corner on a desk, "So, he's my boss now?!"

"Awh, no offence, but he knows nothing about the factory! And I'm sorry, given his recent track record," I hold my arms up in defence.

"Yeah," Peter looks from his hands,"it's not great but, I was at the wrong business at the wrong time, I couldn't fight the changes and the Internet."

"Well, it isn't just that, was it Peter?" I say I mock surprise turning around, "You were reckless."

"Michelle!" exclaims Carla in shock.

"I turn to Carla who says , "The decisions made. Alright, this doesn't affect your position here and there's room in this office for three!"

Peter looks up while I say, "Yeah, try telling Rob that."

"Look, you won't have to," says Peter, standing up from his place, while taking off his jacket, "Not for a while anyway."

He looks over at Carla and admits, "Love, Michelle is right, I don't know this business, but I'm gonna learn from the bottom up. So," he says while rolling up his sleeves, "I'll start the packing with Kirky, he can teach me everything he knows."

"Well, that's you first 10 minutes taken care of then," Carla says with a smile. He chuckles and walks out giving her a kiss.

I look at Carla in disbelief while she gives me a knowing smile.

Seriously though, all Carla can see is that man. Carla looks some way starstruck, I mean they've kissed a million times before haven't they?! Thankfully, I still have my job, but Peter's been given 49%? I was never offered any of this! He doesn't know the first thing about stitching knickers! Carla didn't really talk much to me throughout the day, however she went out to Peter seven times. Not that I counted or anything. How am I seriously going to work with all the whispering the kissing between them?

Finally, the day came to an end and I cleaned any stray papers and started writing some orders for the next few weeks on a clipboard. Carla silently left the office over to... hmm, let me guess, Peter Barlow. She threw her arms around his shoulders from behind and they seem to be talking to Beth and Kirky.

Carla lifts up her left hand pointing to her ring finger and says something. They all laugh and Kirk begins talking about God only knows what. The two 'lovebirds' are slowly backing away saying something. Peter's tie is loose, his sleeves rolled up and his hair and shirt messy. Don't get me wrong Peter Barlow is a handsome man, but I'll stick with my Stevie, thank you very much.

Anyway, I think Peter says something in Carla's ear like 'run' when they are just outside the office. Holding hands and giggling like a bunch of teenagers, they run out of the factory together.

Well. I'm not jealous or anything if that's what you were thinking.
