Zain Nadir entered the club with his usual cocky strut. Just that day Phil had called him arrogant.

"Huh arrogant me? You can talk!" Zain had retorted.

Now he brushed down his black trousers and jacket, undid the top button on his white shirt, brushed his hair back with one tanned hand and smiled to himself. He was so good! His dark brown eyes scanned the room. Noticing a few familiar faces, (from drug raids) they finally rested on the blonde woman sitting elegantly on a stool next to the bar. Kristen Shaw, the gorgeous, clever, deviant drug dealer who Zain had more feelings for than he was willing to admit, even to himself.

He walked over to her,

"Hey," he smiled

She looked up with a smile,

"Black coffee no sugar right?" She asked

Zain nodded and sat down he scanned her face noticing her perfect eyes were slightly red today and her usual pale skin was doubly pale than usual.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

She lifted a hand to brush a strand of blonde hair away from her face. She seemed so much more nervous than usual Zain noticed. Paul must have something to do with it. The unfortunate partner who hated Zain and everything to do with him must be giving her a hard time about him he decided.

Kristen stared into her coffee. Inside she was in turmoil. Never before had she faced a situation that scared her so much. She was so sure of herself and decisive but this had her stumped. If she told Zain her disturbing news of the morning it could soon be all over sunhill or paul. It was a matter of trust. Paul had warned her about trusting a copper, but now since that morning she was in too far to drop out. Biting her lip she glanced back up at Zain, stared into his eyes, at his brow furrowed in worry. She smiled despite herself. He'd have something to worry about when she told him.

"Zain," she began, "Zain i'm..."

The ringing of his phone interuppted her, Zain anwsered it with a smile of apologie,

"Can't it wait? But guv...o.k o.k i'll be there in a minute,"

Zain ended the call and got to his feet.

"I've got to go, give me an hour or two and i'll be back,"

Kristen nodded. She wondered how he'd take the news that she was pregnant.
