8 Years A Couple
A/N
So this is a little multi chapter fic I'm writing to celebrate 10 years of New Tricks. This fic includes all of Sandra's 'boys'; Gerry, Jack, Brian, Steve, and Danny. Also, Strickland is the person who has gone to France and not Sandra. Also, Sasha Millard has taken Strickland's position as Sandra's boss. :)
In case anyone is confused, Sandra and Gerry got together after 'Fluke of Luck' in Series 2.
This is set around series 10 of New Tricks.
Told from Sandra's point of view
Pairing Sandra/Gerry
Enjoy!

Chapter 1-Monday- A New Case
It's the week of our 2nd wedding anniversary.
Gerry and I got together 8 years ago, thanks to Jack saying that I loved Gerry, I just shouted at him to hide my feelings. He went round to my house and told me that he loved me, and I told him that I'd loved him ever since UCOS started.
Gerry proposed to me 4 years ago, just after Brian went into the clinic. We got married 2 years ago, in a small ceremony with Gerry's daughters, my mum, Gerry's exes, Strickland, and a couple of Gerry's friends, including Cass, who's helped us a lot in the past, in attendance. Jack gave me away, and Brian was Gerry's best man.
It's Monday morning. I roll over to see if Gerry's awake yet. He isn't. I glance at the clock on my bedside table. It's 7am, time to get up. I kiss Gerry gently. 'Morning, handsome' I whisper in his ear. He wakes quickly and kisses me back. "Morning gorgeous, happy anniversary" he tells me. 'Our anniversary is on Friday! Not yet!' I giggle. "Well, every time I wake up to you beside me, I want to celebrate. So this week I want to make our anniversary perfect." He tells me, looking into my eyes. 'Aww, Gerry, I don't know what to say '. My eyes are filling up with tears. "I love you more than anything else in the world," he tells me, kissing me on the head, something which I love. "Now let's get up and go to work otherwise you might get a bollocking from Sasha!"He says. 'She wouldn't dare!' I wink.
'Morning boys' I say, walking into the office. Danny is making a cup of coffee. "Pour me and Sandra a cup, would you?"asks Gerry. Brian is typing away on his computer, Steve and Jack are chatting to Sasha. 'Er, morning' I smile at her. She turns to me. 'Ah, Detective Superintendent Standing. This case was handed over to me from the Murder Squad, they would like you to re-investigate it" she tells me before marching out of the office. I raise my eyebrows at her retreating back. 'Nice of her to drop this case on us' I mutter sarcastically.
'Right, Danny, you and Brian look through possible suspects for Justin Brownlow's murder. Gerry, stop playing Solitaire, and go with Steve to talk to Justin Brownlow's mother. Jack and I will go and interview Brownlow's father.' I order my boys.
"How are you and Gerry going to celebrate your anniversary?" Jack asks me when we get into my car. 'Apart from dinner with you and the rest of the team? No idea.' I reply. Gerry and I have invited the rest of the team and Esther and Holly, Dan's daughter, to dinner at our house on Thursday night. Then Gerry and I can spend Friday together, Sasha has agreed that we can both have the day off.
More soon and reviews are welcome!
