Due to demand, here's a final chapter for you all!

Connor arrived home an hour later, he needed to clear his head for a bit, he felt bad for upsetting Abby, and he could see he was upsetting her. He quietly walked in to their flat to find Abby fast asleep on the sofa, the TV still on, and Rex lying near her. Sid and Nancy, their pet dictions who were also allowed to live back with them, the three creatures always went back to the ARC with them on a daily basis so they had the attention they needed. As they skidded across the room towards Connor, he cursed under his breath as they made noise.

"Guys, shhh." He whispered hoping they hadn't woken Abby and went along, playing with one another. As much as Connor wanted to talk to Abby after earlier at his lab, he was glad she was getting some rest, and now he had finally come back home, he could also catch up on some much needed sleep. Abby was right, he was exhausting himself. Connor looked at Abby sleeping peacefully on the sofa, but noticed what seemed to be mascara smudges across her face. He made her cry? That was the last thing he ever wanted to do. Connor sighed and turned off the telly, leaving Abby undisturbed and left her to sleep and dragged himself to bed, hoping to talk to Abby in the morning.

Connor woke up the next morning he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and paused as he remembered the night before, but before he do anything about it, he felt someone move beside him, no-one was there last night were they? He asked himself and turned to his side, smiling at the sight he saw. Abby sleeping next to him. She must have joined him during the night. He watched her for a few minutes as she began to wake up and smiled down at her.

"Morning," he whispered, he knew now was his chance to apologise about last night back at the ARC.

"Morning," Abby groaned but gave him a slight smile.

"Abs..." Connor began, but stopped as his phone began to ring, and sighed as he saw who it was.

"Phillip?" Abby sighed as she dragged herself out of bed to make herself a coffee.

"Y-yeah," Connor nodded and sighed, not knowing whether to pick it up or not. He decided to leave it...for now. He needed to make an apology. A very important one, Connor followed Abby downstairs to the kitchen, where he could smell coffee brewing. "Enough for me?" he asked, trying to put on his cute face, but Abby just looked at him, but reluctantly made him one.

"Here," she whispered and passed him his coffee; just the way he liked it, milky with 2 sugars.

"Thanks," Connor smiled and took a sip, "Oh that's good," He grinned, but Abby just looked down at her mug of coffee, "Abby..." Connor sighed looking at her, and placed his coffee on the worktop and took her free hand and held it, "I'm sorry about last night, this work..."

"I know," Abby whispered and nodded, "I know it's 'important'."

"I'm sorry though, I do love you, and I thought you knew that-"

"Connor I do, but lately..." she whispered and sighed, looking down at the ground. "Works been getting in the way."

"Do you not..." Connor trailed; panic filling him as his heart sunk slightly.

"No, no! I do, I love you Connor, despite all the stupid things you do sometimes," She smiled up at his gently, "That's why I love you, and I'll always love you."

"Good, like I've said, it'd be a pretty lonely place without you here." Connor smiled, "I don't want this to break us apart."

"Then just take one night off? For me?" She begged, she hoped if he realised there was more than just 'New Dawn', he might lay off the work for a while, and stop working the nights, giving her and Matt a bit more time to figure things out and hopefully stop whatever was going to happen, from happening.

"Okay," He nodded, "Tonight? I'll come with you, and we can spend the whole night together."

"Tonight sounds perfect," Abby nodded and smiled at him, kissing him lightly, she hated arguing and fighting with Connor, and she knew just because he had one night off from doing his work, didn't mean that from now on he'll just work every other night until he's finished Phillip's work. But for now she would let it slip, for one night tonight, after work, she had her Connor back.

But she knew it may be for one night, and one night only.

The End.
