Chapter 3

Sam glared at Phil after his outburst

"You want to say that a bit louder?" She said sarcastically

"Sorry. Want to go somewhere quieter so we can talk?" he asked her, looking concerned.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She followed him outside, and they sat on a bench in the park, opposite the station. They sat in silence for several minutes until Phil finally asked her

"So what did he say?"

"I don't know, I didn't read it"

"Are you going to?"

"I can't, I ripped it up" she said, shivering as a bitter wind blew past

"You still should have told me" he said firmly

"Why?"

"We're supposed to be friends. Friends tell each other when their crazy stalker writes them a letter!" He went on. Sam sighed, knowing how hard Phil had worked to gain her trust, she knew she should tell him this sort of thing. She slowly nodded her head

"You're right. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before now. But you have to tell me all your secrets in future too"

"I tell you everything anyway" he admitted. Sam looked surprised.

"You really tell me everything!"

"Well everything worth knowing anyway"

"Come on. You must have some secrets" she pressed. Phil shook his head. "But everyone has secrets!"

"Not from you I don't. I learned my lesson from when I didn't tell you about Kate. And look where that got me!"

"So you've got no other secrets?"

"Nope. So what secrets do you have?" he asked

"None!"

"But you just said that everyone has secrets!" She hesitated. "Come on… Unless you don't trust me?" he said, looking hurt. Sam sighed

"Fine. My biggest, darkest secret is…" she paused "Well you know me and Hugh used to have a… well we had an affair?" He nodded "Well I… I got pregnant and had an abortion. Phil stared at her in amazement.

"You're joking, right?"

"I wish I was." She said sadly

"Does Hugh know?" She shook her head, wondering what Phil must think of her. She stood up to go back to the station.

"Sam wait" Phil got up and ran after her.

"Bet you think I'm a right slapper don't you"

"Course not"

"Well you should!"

"Why?"

"Because everyone, even my own mother used to call me that when they found out about Hugh's baby."

"Sam, believe me, you are definitely not a slapper."

"You think?"

"Yeah. If you were, you definitely would have slept with me by now" Phil flashed her a grin. Sam shivered again, and Phil took off his coat and gave it to her.

"Come on" he said "lets get back to the station, it's too cold to be out today"
