Chapter Two
He placed his hands gently onto her shoulders "Stevie... eh?". She pulled her lips from his neck "Listen to me..." he began noticing her face fall almost instantly "I think you are amazing Stevie but..." she interupted "You aren't interested". He smiled slightly as she rose from the bed "Im not saying that... I really like you.. I would do anything for you... but I dont think we should rush into this..". She rested down onto the bed and placed her hand gently to his leg "Smithy.. we have known each other for over four years.. how much slower do you want to take it?". He took her hand into his and grinned "Moss... I really like you.. I do and I want us to maybe in the future... be together.." he was really struggling over his words "But with everything that is going on at the moment... with Devlin and being here..". She nodded and he could almost see her heart breaking there in front of him "God.. what am I doing Smithy... I am sorry.. with everything you have going on at the moment you dont need this..". He pulled her into a hug and he kissed her hair, taking in the fresh smell "You know I love you dont you" he smiled. She nodded "I love you too Smithy... you are my best friend". He watched her rise to her feet and head off towards the bedroom door "I will see if there is anything to eat" she smiled back at him.
"Smithy..." she called through from where she sat in the living room "The pizza will be here in a second... you need to hurry up". She heard him shout something through from the bedroom before he appeared in the door way a few moments later, wearing only a pair of light blue jeans her mouth dropped open as she stared at him "Stevie.. you will catch flies.." he grinned, as he rested down next to her on the sofa but hearing the door bell ring he smiled "Pizzas here". When he returned a few moments later he placed the boxes down to the table and rested down next to her once again. After eating Stevie and Smithy remained sat on the sofa and she was really struggling to keep her eyes off his bare chest "I'll tidy some of this rubbish up.." he smiled before raising to his feet and as he grabbed for the boxes she rose to her feet and smiled "Smithy... I dont want things to be awkward.." she lent up and placed a kiss to his lips as she pulled away she smiled "I am prepaired to wait until this is all over Smithy... we will be perfect together one day.. I can feel it.." she grinned as a slight smile spread over his features "Im gunna go and have a bath... have fun tidying up". He gulped as she made her way past him, rubing her tiny figure against his rough features. He fell back down onto the sofa as she disapeared from sight, she knew exactly the effect she was having on him but he couldnt think about it the moment, he had too much else on his mind.
He had just began to sort the rubbish out, putting their uneaten food into the fridge when his mobile buzzed away in his pocket. He glanced at the name before answering it "Hello Sir...". The voice was sharp at the end of the phone and it made him miss the rush of Sunhill already "We are no closer to finding Devlin but we have a lead on who helped him to escape..." Smithy interupted "The officer?". Jack sighed "Unfortunatly not Smithy but..." the phone line went quiet for a few seconds and he heard the sound of a door shuting "There was phone calls from a mobile found in Devlins cell to the station.. to CID" Smithy rested down onto the chair in the kitchen "Why would my friends want to set me up... I dont understand who.." Jack interupted "News is starting to spread that you and Stevie have left.. I think its for the best if you turn your phones off so you cant be traced.. I have the landline number.." Smithy glanced round, he wasnt even aware that there was a landline. "Ok Sir..." Jacks voice interupted once again "I will be in touch Smithy" and with that the phone line went dead. Smithy sighed as he switched his phone off before placing it to the table. His whole life was upside down and he didnt know who he could trust and who he couldnt.
"Smithy... quick Smithy... please..." she screamed from the bathroom. He shot up from where he had been sat for the last ten minutes on the sofa and rushed through the cottage to where the small blonde was, his whole body was struck by complete fear and for a split second he thought it was over and he was about to lose Stevie, the one person he had ever really cared for. He crashed through the bedroom and into the bathroom door, knocking it flying. He stared at where the small blonde stood on the toilet seat "What... whats going on?". She pointed to the sink and he moved over and glanced at her "That... thats why you are screaming... Jesus Stevie.. I thought something was wrong..." she glared at him "Have you seen the size of that thing its fucking huge...". Smithy glanced at the spider before back to Stevie "You want me to get rid of it?". She nodded "Yes Smithy... kill it". He laughed "I dont think I want to do that..." he stared at her, his eyes dragging over her legs, up to her small towel "I've got a pretty good view from here.." he bit gently onto his lip "Why would I want to be ruining it?". She glared at him "Please Smithy... just kill it". He laughed as he moved towards the spider once again, "Im not killing it.. its cruel.. and besides this place will be full of them". She glared at him "Smithy... just get rid of it.. please..". He nodded "I cant believe you..." he began as he reached into the sink and trapped the spider in his hands "You take on the nut jobs and big hard men of London but here you are petrified of a spider..." he grinned moving towards her "You sure you dont want to hold it?". She moved back slightly "SMITHY" and he laughed "If I get much closer I reckon you will drop that towel of yours..". He grinned at her "I will put it outside... get down before you break a nail Moss".
When he returned she was sitting on the bed with a tiny pink dressing gown on, which he had no idea where she had managed to get it from, he smiled at her and she frowned, he couldnt help but think how cute she looked "Is it dead?" she asked. He shook his head "No.. I told you I wernt killing it... I took it right away ok... it will take it a few hours to find its way back again". She smiled sarcastically before standing up "You said this place would be full of them...". He nodded "Corse it will... there will be hundreds of them.." she glared at him "Well then you are not leaving my side...". He laughed "You are joking Moss...". She smiled "I dont like spiders Smithy". He moved towards the bed and rested down next her "They are more scared of you than you are of them... although I do like the whole damsel in distress thing". She faked a sarcastic laugh before slapping his arm, he grabbed her wrist, holding her close to his body, he stared at her, his eyes fixed on her beautiful features before he lent foward placing a light kiss to her lips, as he pulled away she smiled, gripping the back of his neck she pulled him back towards her, his lips pushing hard to hers. He pulled her down onto the bed and lent gently over her body, his fingers gently pulling at the tie holding her tiny dressing gown together. She grabbed his hand "Smithy..." she panted as she pulled away. He smiled "Im sorry..." he tried to pull away but she held him close "This is what I want but.." she smiled leaning up and placed a kiss to his lips "Are you sure?" she asked. He nodded "Im sure Stevie... this is what I want" he lent back in and kissed her lips once again, before pulling her dressing gown open. He grinned as he ran his eyes over her naked body "Wow.. you are so beautiful" he lent back in and kissed her once again before letting his hands drift down her slim figure.
He placed a gentle kiss to the top of her head and she glanced up a huge grin playing on her features "You ok?" he asked softly. She pushed up on his chest and placed a kiss to his lips "I couldnt be better Smithy.. I am so happy". He nodded as he stared down at her, he didnt need to speak, he just wanted to watch her, to be close to her. "This is a good start to us being in hiding together... not even twenty four hours and we have jumped into bed together..." she smiled. "No regrets DS Moss..." he grinned. She smiled "No regrets Smithy" she moved up into his lips placing a gentle kiss once again "I think we.. should... go to that shop at the end of the track and get a bottle of wine...". He smiled "Stevie... its dark out and quite a walk... maybe we should stick to coffee..". She nodded slightly "Ok". He shifted in the bed slightly so she was resting on his chest once again "Whats up?". She shook her head "Nothing..". He smiled "Im not stupid Stevie... whats wrong?". She glanced up at him "Nothing is wrong Smithy... I just thought it would of been nice to have a drink". He sighed "So you want me to walk to the shop at night on my own... when there is a man out there trying to kill me..." she glared at him "What is your problem.. I have said it doesnt matter... I dont care I just want to..." she placed her hands to his shoulders and he pushed her away slightly "Dont Stevie". She sighed as she stared at him, as her phone buzzed next to her she reached over and grabbed it from the dressing table "What are you doing?" he asked. "What?" she smiled as he grabbed her phone from her hands "Smithy... Smithy... give me my phone back..". He glared at her "Who is it?" he turned the phone towards her "Why have you got a pin set on it... Stevie.. who is on your fucking phone?". She grabbed for her dressing gown from the floor "Its my Mum Smithy... please give me my phone..". He climbed from the bed and glared at her "How do I know its not you?". She shook her head "What? please Smithy.. you are scaring me". He stared at her "You... was it you?" he stressed and she stood staring at him "I dont know what you are talking about.. Smithy...". He rose to his feet "Was it you that set me up?" she stared at him a bemused look on her face. He rose her phone in his hand and chucked it against the wall and it fell in pieces to the floor, as he turned back to face her gulit struck him as tears streamed down her face, she looked so hurt and frightened as she just stood on the spot "Stevie..." he began but she ran into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.
