So I love the Connie and Sam pairing from Holby, so I've written a oneshot as if he was still around and they were seeing each other :) Let me know what you think! Thank you for taking the time to read.
Connie was beginning to wake up due to the light shining through the curtains. She rolled onto her side to see Sam was sitting out on the porch. Last night he had surprised her by taking her away for a long weekend. They'd not been together for very long and the way it happened wasn't the best but things had settled down now and they were happy.
He had booked a small cabin out on the beach for the few nights she had off. Connie lay watching Sam who was sitting with his feet in the sand. How she managed to be this lucky after everything was beyond her. Sam turned around to see she was awake "Morning beautiful, you up for coming out here?" Sam smiled a cheeky grin as Connie knelt up "What like this?" She was in her underwear kneeling on the bed when Sam jumped up. "Point taken, not that I don't like seeing that but I'd rather it was just me who gets to see you like that."
After some breakfast Connie changed into a bikini. Sam had said they were going to spend the afternoon somewhere but wouldn't tell her where. Just that they would be going swimming at some point. "You ready?" He was stood in the doorway wearing some shorts and a short sleeved shirt waiting for her. She was wearing a white bikini top and had tied something around her waist to cover her legs slightly. "Ready when you are."
Sam walked with Connie out onto the beach and along the sand. She could get used to days like these with him. After a short walk Sam stopped and faced Connie. "You know how you always wanted to go out on a boat and just forget the world for a while?" He stepped aside and she looked along the platform to see a boat tied up at the end. "Well I'm your captain for the afternoon and wherever you want to go we shall." Connie tiptoed up and kissed Sam before they walked down to the boat.
After a difficult start they were soon floating along with no problems. Connie stood up behind Sam and wrapped her arms around his waist. "You are the most amazing person in the world Sam Strachan… I can't believe you did all this for me." He smiled as she let go and walked over to the edge of the boat.
They came to a stop and Sam smiled at Connie. He was standing in just his shorts when she turned back to look at him. "No way are you going in?!" As she said it she watched Sam jump over the side and into the water below. Connie leant over and watched as he re-emerged from the water. "You are insane!" He smiled and shook the water from his hair, "Come on, don't make me swim alone." She thought about it before standing up in her bikini and jumping in.
She felt the cold as soon as she hit the water. She came up and felt Sam's arms hold her immediately. She smiled and ran her hands back through her hair before Sam swam backwards towards some rocks. "Where are you going now?" She swam after him and watched him climb out and offer her a hand.
Once up on the rocks she saw a blanket lied out and some food set out with it. Connie walked over and didn't know what to say. "Sam… I can't believe this." They walked over and sat down on the blanket. "Connie Beauchamp I love you and always will… Thank you for giving us a second chance because I'd have never have been this happy without you."
Connie moved around to sit in front of Sam. She moved forward and kissed him as he laid back. "Thank you for the best weekend I've had in years." The two laid down together before packing up and heading back towards their cabin for the night.
Bit of a strange one, but I got the idea after reading something on a friend's tumblr :) Slightly unrealistic, and doesn't make a lot of sense alone but it was just something quick!
