JUST DESSERTS
This is my version of the episode Hunter On The Street where Phil is back in uniform. This is my first attempt on FF. So please review.
Sam was just entering Sun Hill Station when she spotted Phil coming out in uniform.
"Phil what has happened"? "Why are you in uniform"?
Even though she was no longer with Phil she still cared for him.
"I had a fight with Stuart in the CID office yesterday, he messed up a case I was working on" replied Phil angrily,
Sam listened as Phil told her the whole story of yesterday's events.
"What did Jack do about Stuart"? Asked Sam hoping that Stuart got worse than Phil.
"Absolutely nothing" said Phil as he tried to adjust the collar of his old shirt.
"Bloody Stuart Turner, don't worry Phil I will get him to confess about messing up the case and I will present the evidence to Jack" said Sam caringly.
" You will do that for me Sam" replied Phil and his eyes lit up as he saw Sam smile and at the moment he remembered why he loved her so much.
'Of course I will, we maybe no longer together but you are still my closest friend" said Sam and she gazed into his eyes and suddenly all the feelings she once had for him came flooding back.
"Anyway I better go otherwise Jack will have a fit' said Sam and she could feel Phil eyes burning into her back as she walked away then she turned around.
"By the way Phil you look quite sexy in uniform" said Sam and she winked at him then went into the station.
Phil smiled to himself suddenly he felt this day was going to be ok after all.
Sam was on her way up to the CID office still smiling but her smile faded as she saw Stuart just coming out of the office.
"Morning Sam, have you heard about Phil"? Gloated Stuart.
"I have just seen him, he is really down" replied Sam sadly.
" Serves the bastard right he should learn how to take a joke" and Stuart left as happily as can be.
Sam continued into the office and she went straight to Jack Meadows office and knocked on the door.
"Come in" called Jack and Sam went in.
" Can I have a word Gov"?
" Course Sam what is it"? Asked Jack curiously
"It's about Phil, I can't believe you have put him back in uniform when clearly it was all Stuarts fault" said Sam crossly
"Sorry Sam but Stuart's version of events were more believable, unless I have proof otherwise that it was Stuart who caused the fight then I will reconsider my decision" said Jack firmly.
" OK Gov" said Sam and she left his office.
Phil was having a miserable day on the streets he was going door to door making enquiries about a robbery from a jewellers that had taken place last night. But then he thought about Sam and a smile appeared across his face.
Sam was busy going through a pile of paperwork but she could not concentrate because she was busy thinking about Phil. She knows that she was the one who ended their relationship but now she was regretting it.
"Sam would you like anything to eat"? Asked Stuart
"Yeah sure but is it alright if we go to the café across the road there is something I would like to discuss with you" said Sam.
"Sure I just grab my jacket," replied Stuart and off he went.
Sam quickly placed a voice recorder in her handbag and off she went to meet Stuart who was waiting by the drink cooler.
Sam and Stuart arrived at the café and while Stuart was busy ordering the food Sam carefully placed the voice recorder so it could not been seen. A few minutes later Stuart arrived at the table and Sam cautiously pressed the record button.
"So Stuart tell me how you managed to screw up Phil's case and made Jack put him back in uniform" asked Sam trying not to be too over the top.
"Total classic, I got 2 officers take a photo of Phil having a manicure even though he was actually there to try and uncover some information about the robbery that had taken place there the night before. The manager was about to open up to him but the camera flashed and she saw it was police officers and she got all clammed up. Back in CID Phil was furious that I messed up his investigation and I said to him that is the way it goes if you cannot take a joke about me messing up your case then you seriously need a life then he tried to hit me" laughed Stuart.
Sam was totally fuming inside but she did her very best not to let Stuart know how mad she was.
"You absolute bastard" Sam thought to herself.
"We better get back I have got loads of paperwork to do" suggested Sam
"All the joys of being a DI hey Sam" joked Stuart.
But Sam didn't take any notice she was happy that she managed to get the proof to help Phil.
Meanwhile back on the streets Phil had made an arrest from one of the suspects that was involved in the jewellery robbery and he was on his way back to the station.
Sam went straight into CID and knocked on Jacks door.
"Come in" he said and Sam went in
"Gov I have got a confession out of Stuart for wrecking Phil's case" explained Sam and she played the tape.
"Well done Sam phone Phil and get him in here" said Jack
"Yes Gov" replied Sam and out she went.
Sam was just about to phone Phil when she saw him coming into the station.
"Phil, Jack wants to see you," said Sam and a smile appeared across her face.
"Why what's going on"? Asked Phil looking puzzled.
"You'll see," answered Sam.
They walked into CID and Jack was waiting for them. Then he told Stuart to join them in his office.
"Stuart you said it was all Phil's fault that he tried to hit you but I have got proof here that says otherwise" explained Jack and he played the tape that Sam done.
"YOU BITCH", shouted Stuart and he was about to hit Sam but Phil blocked his way.
"You are a disgrace to this team Stuart I have no choice but fire you as an immediate effect now get out of my office and out of this station" said Jack firmly.
Stuart grabbed his jacket, left the office fuming and Sam made sure he left the building.
"I am very sorry Phil I should have had more faith in you" explained Jack calmly.
"That's ok Gov, thank you for finding the truth", said Phil and he shook Jacks hand
"It was Sam who achieved it, it is her you have to thank" replied Jack and he smiled.
Phil left the CID office and he saw Sam coming up the stairs.
"Jack said it was you who got the confession" said Phil happily.
"I told you I would help you and besides I missed you" replied Sam and she hugged him.
"I still love you Sam there is nobody else I would rather be with" whispered Phil.
"I love you to Phil I was so foolish to leave you please take me back" whispered Sam.
"Of course I will on one condition" added Phil
"What's that"? Asked Sam
"Help me out of this uniform"
And together they laughed arm in arm into the changing rooms and locked the door behind them.
