As Jac walked into work the following morning, she couldn't help but noitce that something was different. She couldnt put her finger on it? It wasnt the ward, and it wasn't the staff.. maybe it was her?

' Sahira, dont get me wrong yeah, but has something changed?'

'nope everythings the same... dont worry about that, tell me about your two days away? I need gossip'

Jac pulled sahira into the office and began to explain the details of her life changing two days.

' well you know, we got there the hotel was just magnificent, i went over to look at the sea and joseph wandered over and put his arms around my waist. Sahira, it felt perfect...'

Sahira screamed with happiness, with everyone peering into the office Jac continued..

'He took me to dinner, it was very posh and i mean posh, He led me back to our room and...'

She gave out a little chuckle and walked out leaving Sahira hanging there..

' JAC' shouted sahira. ' DONT TELL ME YOU...YOU DID'. Sahira came up being jac and started to laugh, sahira started to jump around the ward, she was by far very happy.

' Jac, im so happy for you. You know, i know we dont see eye to eye but your a good friend and i don't care if your heartless. Which by the way, i dont think you are, you deserve to be with Joseph and to happy.' Sahira explained as she hugged her best friend.

' thanks Sahira, your not bad forself eh! Your a good friend'

Jac couldn't help but smile, she wanted to tell sahira every little detail but she would be to embrassed. She wanted to tell her how when Joseph led her into the bedroom, he slowly undressed her and they made love but something stopped Jac, them precious details were secret to her and Joseph. Jac winked at sahira and got on with her work.

A young girl with a broken leg, a older man with kidney infection, a women with a punchered lung and a car crash accident and a man wo was waiting for an endoscopy . Nothing out of the ordinary, just another normal day for the Holby Staff.

As per usual, jac was on top of these paitents. Although she couldn't help but think of Joseph, this was normal right? Every so often she would get a wave of exitment, this was because by the end of the week she and joseph would be living together, they would be happy.. and ready to start fresh.

As Jac was getting ready for a theatre slot she saw Sahira walk past.

' Oh Sahira. On friday, did you want to come round with James. Me and Joseph would appreciate it?.. think of it as a peace offering, a new start to our wacky friendship'

'Oh yes i would love to, get to see this romance between you two. Do i need to bring a sick bucket?' joked Sahira.

' you might want to' Jac laughed.

Jac thought i'd was rather funny actually, Sahira was into all that mushy lovey dovey sort of thing, personally it made Jac sick. She wasn't into love, or children. Jac remembered the first time Sahira brought harry into ward... disaster. Sahira had handed Harry to Jac and poped to the loo, Jac didnt know what to do with harry. He then started crying, she couldn;t understand how a little thing like that could produce such ear deafing noise. Sahira joked that Harry saw Jac's face and got scared. That sort of joke was normal for Jac, she was used to it..

After Jac had finished her endoscopy she was expected to go and see Hanssen..

'Uh Jac, we have a paitent who is being brought over from St James's and is in need of a heart bypass.. i have apointed this operation to you, it would be required of you to accept this?'

' Yes i will do this but wait, why me? Not Sahira, Greg, Hope or even Spence?'

' Its matter of quality, you perform this type of procedure very well, better then anyone else. But you will have to stay 2 hours later'

Jac finished at 6pm and was going to go round Josephs to break the news to Faye.

' Can i get back to you on it, i have some re-arranged to do'

'of you go Ms Naylor'

Jac had even stepped out the room yet and she was dialling Joseph, Surely joseph could wait two more hours to tell Faye. She nervously awaited the moment when Joseph answered..

' Hey angel, whats up?'

' I have to do a heart bypass today but it means i have to stay untill 8'

'Thats fine, we can keep Faye waiting. As if she cares. Just meet me at mine after'

' Yep, ill be there. I'll see you later then.. good luck us eh'

'Jac'

'what?'

' i love you'

' you soppy idiot, i love you too'

Jac treasured moments like these. Each time she heard them three little words she would fall for joseph even more. She was glad that Joseph had said it because she wasn't in the mood to go ahead with this bypass, she just wanted to be within joseph's arms, she craved him. She needed one kiss, that was enough to last her untill 8. just one more..

Throughout the procedure Jac would catch glimpses of the clock, each time it hadn't moved. She would do anything for this operation to go quickly so she could be free, but no. The clock was ticking away slowly.
After being in the operating theatre for a mere three and half hours jac was glad to be free. As she impaitently undressed from her royal blue uniform into the warm and comfort of her tracksuit, As turnt the ignition on, on her bike she was ready to face what ever happened next.

She arrived at Josephs house, hoping Faye wasnt their just yet, she needed to be alone with Joseph just for a second, before everything blew up.

As she made her way up the front steps the door opened, she lifted her head to find Joseph stood there with a smile on his face. He held out his hand, clenched onto Jac's and led her in.

' Are you sure you want to do this Jac?' Joseph mumbled.

' Im sure, you know me, the heartless fiesty one. Ill cope' Jac replied, she didnt looked sure.

'Just think, tomorrow when you wake up ill be there by your side. I've chosen you over Faye. Its just me and you now'.

Jac felt Joseph's warm hands touch her face, she leant in for a kiss. This was probably the last kiss they would shared untill their relationship was out in the open. Jac pulled away and put her chin onto Joseph's shoulder, holding him close and tightly. As Jac closed her eyes, she heard the sound of key opening a lock.

'Its now or never' said a confident Joseph.

Joseph tightly gripped Jac's hand as they waited untill faye walked into the room.
