Chapter One
After a tough day at work CID and uniform sat around the huge table at the pub, all except Smithy who sat alone at the bar, she smiled round the team before making her way to him "You ok?". He nodded "Just one of them days". She pulled a bar stool up next to him and called the barman over, "What do you want Smithy?". She ordered the drinks and smiled to him "You wanna talk about it?" she asked. He shook his head "Not really... I would rather just get pissed". Stevie laughed "I suggest you get that down you then" she gestured to the pint of beer the barman placed infront of him. The two watched as most of there colleagues left the pub and they remained proped up at the bar. Smithy attempted to read his watch and settled on the time being half ten called the barmen back over "Top us up could you?" he laughed, not that he knew what it was he was laughing at the barman shook his head "You have had enough... both of you". Stevie glared at him "I dont think that is for you to decide" the barman smiled as he walked off "Maybe not.. but your not getting no more service in here". Smithy groaned laying his head down onto the bar "Now what Moss". He could see her running the chances of them getting served in another pub through her mind before she grinned at him "Come back to mine.. I have a bottle of vodka that is begging to be opened", he smiled sliding from his bar stool "You are on Moss".
Arriving back at Stevies the two fell through the door and Stevie laughed as Smithy groaned from where he now layed on the floor, she held her hand out for him to pull himself up but instead she ended up on top of him, the two laughed for a second until she began moaning about an invasion of her personal space. She felt the words come to a stop as his hand gripped the back of her head and pulled her lips down onto his, he slipped his tounge into her mouth and began to let his hands wander down her body until she pulled away "What are you doing Smithy?" she asked shaking her head. He grinned "Just having a bit of fun". He watched as her eyes slowly drifted over his body, unsure on how to continue he smiled "Where is this vodka then.. or did you get me back here on faulse pretences?". She shook her head "I think it was the other way round" she grinned before leaning back into his lips. She could see the confusion on his face as she pulled at the buttons on his shirt. "Erm.. whats going on Moss?". She stared at him before moving close into his lips "You said fun... sex is fun". He grinned "Are you serious Stevie?". She laughed before pushing her lips onto his.
Stevie groaned as she held onto her head the following morning, she glanced to where he slept next to her and sighed "Fuck"
before grabbing for her dressing gown and disapearing from the bedroom. She walked into the kitchen and flicked the kettle on she poured some water and grabbed some pain killers from a draw and swallowed a couple. She heard Smithy moving around in the bedroom and glanced through the door way as he walked from the bedroom, he smiled slightly "Morning". She returned his smile "Morning Smithy". He cleared his throat and gestured to the bedroom "I couldnt find my shirt". She pointed to the hall "I dont think that made it to the bedroom". He smiled before walking into the hall, he returned after a few seconds, she watched as he pulled the top over her head. "I erm.. I better get going...". She pointed to the kettle "Do you not what a drink?". He sighed, she could see he looked nervous, as he jumped lightly from one foot to the other "Listen Smithy... I know what last night was.. it was just sex.. we can carry on like normal". He smiled "Things arent going to change". She wasnt sure if this was a statement or a question so she just nodded in aggreement. "We can forget it" she eventually replied. He nodded "And what about at work?". She smiled turning back to the kettle "Well everyone already thought we were shagging so now we can give them a reason to gossip". She heard him sigh, she turned back to him "Im joking you idiot... I wont say a word just keep it to yourself". He smiled "Thanks Stevie". She nodded "Now tea or coffee?". He lent against the kitchen side "Coffee.. you got any pain killers... my head is killing me". She gestured to the packet still resting on the side "I am going to have a shower" she smiled taking a sip from her coffee "Make yourself some toast or something..." she gestured to a cuboard "I will take us to work.. we can stop in your on the way so you can get changed". He grinned pulling some bread out "Cheers Moss".
Smithy spent the first few hours at work trying to recall the events of last night, who came onto who, how they went from having a few drinks in the pub to ending up in bed together. He could spend the rest of the day trying to find the answers, but the best thing to do was put it all in the past, forget it had ever happened, like they had aggreed. He rose from his seat and made his way towards the coffee machine just outside, he pushed his money in and waited for his drink. "Smithy..." Callums voice caused him to turn round "This is PC Sophie Jenkins... its her first day at Sunhill". Smithy nodded slightly "Yeah I remember... Inspector Smith.." he held his hand out to the young woman, her long dark hair pulled into a neat pony tail, he couldnt help but notice she was beautiful, and he guessed by the way Callum was staring he wasnt the only one to of noticed. "How has your first day been?" Smithy asked. Sophie grinned "Its been good... Sergeant Stone has made me very welcome". Smithy nodded "Yeah.. I bet he has". Stevie glanced down the stairs and at the man she spent last night with as he chatted, flirted with a woman half her age, usually seeing Smithy talk to another woman didnt bother her, but today she just felt uneasy, angry, jelous even. she watched as the young woman slowly followed Callum away, glancing back at Smithy throwing him a flirty smile. She carried on down the stairs and he grinned as his eyes fell on her. "You ok Moss?" he asked. "Fine" she replied. He smiled "You sure?". She nodded "I just said so didnt I". He glanced at the officers passing them, before he smiled back to the small blonde "DS Moss my office please". She sighed before walking a few steps behind him. Once inside he walked over and pushed the door shut "What is your problem?". She shook her head "I dont have one". He glared at her "I thought we had put last night behind us.. a one night stand". She nodded "We had.. but I didnt know I was that easy to forget about that you would be here chatting someone else up the next day". He shook his head "Its not like that.. its her first day I was just being polite". She nodded "Its fine.. I think its fair to say we ruined our friendship last night anyway". He sighed "Dont say that... I care about you.. I dont want to lose you". She turned to the door but his words pulled her back "I dont even remember what happened.. if we even slept together". she shook her head "I dont know.. its all a blur". He smiled slightly "I never thought I would be waking up next you". She smiled "Thanks". He shook his head "I didnt mean it like that.. why dont we go for a drink tonight.. sort things out.. I really dont want to lose you as a friend.. you are so important to me". She nodded before walking from his office.
The weeks slowly drifted by and Stevie and Smithy had managed to get there friendship back on track athough Stevie still found herself setting out to wind up her friend, they thought it was best not to spend quite as much time alone as they used to but after much time contemplating the future, they decided things could not go any futher between them. "Smithy.. I was wondering if you wanted to go for a drink after shift?" Sophie asked from the door way to his office before walking in "Yeah.. I will meet you in the Crown at eight?" he replied glancing up, noticing the small blonde come in the room after he smiled to Sophie "Can you give us a minute?". She nodded reluctantly before walking from the room, athough nothing had happened in her first few weeks at Sunhill Sophie knew Smithy wanted her, and given the chance things could develop between them. Stevie pushed the door closed after Sophie left and turned back to him "Dating her now?" she asked. He shook his head "Not yet". She nodded walking over to the desk and resting onto it. He smiled at her "What do you want Stevie... Im busy". She smiled "Found the time for her". He nodded "Yeah.. cause she doesnt come in here bitching at me". Stevie smiled "That what you think of me now is it?". He glanced up from his computer screen "Well you have changed since we slept together". She nodded "Ok.. think what you want of me.. but Im pregnant". His mouth dropped open and he stared at her for several seconds "Pregnant.. how?". She shook her head "You dont need a biology degree to work it out Smithy". He stood up and paced the room a few times "Is it mine?". She glared at him "How much of a slut do you think I am?". He sighed "I didnt mean it like that.. I ment.. I dunno Stevie..". She shook her head "You dont need to worry.. Im booked in for an abortion this evening". He stared at her "Are you serious?". She nodded "I dont want a baby". He glared at her "And I dont get a say in it" Stevie shook her head "I have to carry it, give birth, look after it.. while you flit off with your new bird". He smiled "It wouldnt be like that.. I would support you.. but it is your choice..". She nodded "I have to be at the clinic at seven thirty this evening.. they fitted me in.. but Im guessing as it clashes with your little date Im going alone". He didnt reply and she simply nodded "Thanks Smithy".
He came out of the locker rooms after getting changed and glanced at his watch, seven. He smiled as Mickey walked towards him "Is DS Moss still upstairs?" he asked. Mickey shook his head "Said she had somewhere to be.. she seemed upset d'you know what is up with her Smithy?". He shook his head "No.. we arent as close anymore". Mickey nodded "Yeah I noticed... shame she used to talk to you... shes not really got anyone else". Smithy smiled as Mickey walked into the locker room, maybe Stevie had come to talk to him for support, in the hope he would tell her he wanted her to have his baby, that he wanted to be a dad but instead he had shouted at her. He pulled his phone out and dialled her number, when her phone went straight to answer phone he knew he had to get to the clinic before she had the abortion, to at least support her if nothing else, after all he had at one time risked everything for her. "Smithy.." her voice called him back "Shall we go to the pub together?". He shook his head "I cant Sophie.. I have to be somewhere". She smiled "Where?". He sighed "I have to talk to Stevie.. sorry maybe another time". She glared at him before walking down the corridor "No.. you had your chance". Smithy sighed he watched as Sophie left before he realised what he had to do, he had to stop Stevie.
