Disclaimer: I own nothing of the amazing Ashes to Ashes except my DVDs, CDs and ideas.

Okay this is just a little one-shot I thought of. It's a missing scene from 3:7. I have loads of ideas and stories on the go at the moment but uni has been crazy so while I get all my thoughts down on paper, I thought I'd post this to keep all you lovely people happy!

R&R please but most importantly – enjoy!

Front or Back?

"Bra opens at the front or back, Bolly?" Gene inquired, his voice low so their discussion remained private as they drifted back into his office.

"What happened to 'upstairs outside only' on a first date, Guv?" Alex questioned, feeling warm under his gaze.

Gene sniffed, his eyes trailing slowly upwards from her red stilettos, eventually reaching her face as he decided on an answer.

"Well, I figured we could speed up proceedings a bit Bols; the amount of time we've spent together merits at least upstairs inside."

"You mean because you've spent the last three years staring at my arse, you thought it might be nice to switch your attention elsewhere for a change?"

"Sounds about right, Bolly. You know me, the Gene Genie's nothing if not an equal opportunist."

"Equal opportunist, Gene? So tell me, when do you think your Neanderthal brain will learn to work effectively under a woman?"

"I've got nothing against women on top, Bols. In fact I'd be more than happy to outline the most satisfactory procedure for your benefit. How about your place tonight, after the children are in bed?"

"Sounds most informative, Gene. Educational, even. I expect it'd be more than my salary's worth to miss it."

"That it would, Bols."

"Well, I guess I'll see you there then, Guv."

"Looking forward to it, Inspector."
