"I prefer Charlie by the way" said Charlotte. "Charlie, awesome" said Toby with a smile, she grinned and leaned back in her seat, closing her eyes. Connor glanced at Toby then nodded to Charlie. Toby grinned at him and shrugged. Connor smiled back then turned to rest his head on Abby's shoulder, she snuggled into him and they both closed their eyes. Toby sighed and lifted his feet so they were resting either side of Jess. She raised an eyebrow at him as he yawned loudly and straightened his legs out, trapping Jess between them.

Becker glanced down at Toby's legs and scowled. He sighed and stuck his earphones in.

Matt and Emily were chatting absently in the front about their wedding plans.

"Conn?" said Abby absently.

"Yeah?"

"I asked Lester about Sid and Nancy"

Connor opened his eyes "Yeah? What did he say?"

Abby sighed "He just said; you'll see later"

Connor pulled a face "Oh"

"Exactly"

They both sighed and closed their eyes again.

Becker flicked absently through his songs; since when did all his songs sound depressing?

He looked down at Toby's legs again, and a mix of emotions swelled in his chest, none of them positive, at the sight if Jess' hand resting gently on Toby's shin. Toby had his eyes closed contentedly. Becker's fists clenched at his sides, he took a few deep breaths to calm himself before reaching down and firmly pinching Toby's leg.

Toby's eyes snapped open and he grinned cheekily at his fuming brother, he gently moved his legs so only his feet were on Jess' seat. Jess looked up at Toby who grinned at her. She returned the gesture and turned to look at Becker, he smiled warmly at her. Causing her to beam in delight. Becker's cheeks tinted red and he looked out the window.

Half an hour later, Connor was snoring loudly into Abby's neck, Abby herself was playing cards with Toby and Charlie. Jess, like Connor, had fallen asleep. Her head resting on her own shoulder. Becker was twiddling his thumbs absently, trying not to look at Jess. Matt was still driving, Emily watching him curiously.

They slowly exited the busy London traffic and turned onto a much quieter road. Jess mumbled some nonsense in her sleep followed by a "B-b". Toby and Abby's heads snapped up to look at her with hopeful expressions. "B-kk-rrr" Jess sighed. Toby and Abby both broke into delighted smiles which turned to beams as Jess' head flopped onto Becker's shoulder. His eyes widened, momentarily looking like a deer caught in the headlights, before his face softened and he timidly laid his head on top of hers.

Toby grinned and held out his hand under the table over Connor's lap. "Come on Nancy; pay up" he whispered with a grin.

Abby made a face but handed over the fiver none the less.

"Nice one Little B" she whispered, laying her head on Connor's chest. Toby smiled and leans back into his own seat.

"You bet on them?" whispered Charlie to Toby.

Toby grinned "Of course! You've been around my brother enough the past year"

Charlie laughed. "I know, the amount of times I've seen him just standing there, watching her work"

"Really?" said Toby with great interest "Yo" he said, leaning into her confidingly "We're on a mission… To get them together, wanna join?"

Charlie laughed "Sure! Sounds like fun!"

Toby grinned and nodded "Welcome to the team"

Charlie grinned at him and shook his hand.

"By the way" murmured Toby "Do you… happen to have a boyfriend?"

"No" she said with a smile.

"Husband?"

"No way!"

"Girlfriend?"

"Nope!" she chuckled.

Toby grinned "Good" he said simply and shoot her a cocky grin and a wink. Charlie rolled her eyes and laughed at him. Toby looked up at his brother who was staring at him. Becker smiled at Toby and nodded to Charlie, Toby grinned cheekily and then nodded at Jess. Becker's ears glowed scarlet and he looked completely lost. Toby smiled and shook his head kindly. Becker glared at him playfully then shut his eyes.

Meanwhile, Connor had woken up, and was rooting around under Abby's chair. Abby was looking rather confused with her legs up on her seat and Connor's head in her lap. Connor pulled himself up and placed a portable DVD player on the table. Toby perked up and started looking through the selection of DVD's Connor had also produced. He held up a Dr. Who DVD and Abby scowled.

"No sci-fi!" she said sternly.

Toby and Connor looked very upset before pulling out Sweeney Todd.

Abby gave it one glance before agreeing enthusiastically. Toby held it up to Charlie who nodded happily.

Connor slid the disk in. Toby looked up to ask Becker if he wanted to watch it to, but stopped when he saw his brother; eyes closed, breathing deeply, his lips gently against Jess' ear. He nudged the others and they all made 'Aw!' faces.

Matt looked over his shoulder in the mirror and smirked.

"Don't think I didn't see that you lot, and don't think I don't know what you're up to" he said, still grinning.

Toby looked at him and smiled sheepishly.

"Nor do we want any part in it" said Emily.

"Well said" said Matt, his eyes fixed on the winding road ahead of them.

Connor sighed noisily and played the film. Abby had to lean in on top of him to see the screen properly, just as Charlie had to lean in on Toby.

Toby grinned "Oh! Hello!" he said with his usual cheeky grin. Charlie chuckled and slapped him gently on the arm. Toby turned his head and gently blew her short, brown, hair in front of her eyes. She pouted from beneath her fringe and they both laughed.

"Oh, be quiet you two!" scolded Abby "You'll wake the sleeping beauties over there"

Connor chuckled goofily and Abby gave him a strange look, he shrugged and pressed his lips to hers. She kept her eyes open and raised on eyebrow at him. They seemed to having a started a staring competition like that. Toby and Charlie watched as Connor's eyes began to water and he broke away to blink and wipe at them. Abby smirked triumphantly at him, he glared at her, but he looked so much more like an upset puppy that Abby started laughing and kissed his nose. Connor pouted and turned his attention back to the movie. Charlie raised her eyebrows and leaned more into Toby.

"Are they always like that?" she inquired.

Toby shrugged "I guess, I've only known them like two days"

Charlie looked shocked "But you'd swear you'd known them for years"

"I guess I'm good at getting along with people"

"Yeah, you are"

"Why thank you"

"You're wecome"

"Ssshhhh!" came from Abby, who glared pointedly at them then nodded to the movie.

Toby and Charlie gave her apologetic looks and also turned to the movie.

An hour later, Jess started to stir. Toby snapped his eyes up to her as she sleepily opened her eyes and raised a hand to see what was on top of her head. Toby urgently shook his head at her and mouthed 'Becker'. Realisation swept over Jess' face and it took only a few seconds for her face to go through nearly every shade of red known to man. Still, she didn't move. That is, until Matt accidently drove them through a pothole. Becker's head slipped from hers and he ended up with his face in her chest. Jess' eyes widened to the size of saucers and her mouth fell open. Becker's face twitched and he slowly opened his eyes. He looked around for a bit before slowly moving his face. Toby, Abby, Connor and Charlie all pretended they haven't noticed to let the scene play out. Becker slowly looked up into Jess' face and gulped.

"Ah…" he started "I'm a… uh… sorry Jess"

Jess managed a smile at him "It's ok" she said, trying to keep her blush under control. Something, Toby noted, Becker was having far more success with. Becker awkwardly pulled himself back fully into his seat and cleared his throat.

"So, what are you guys watching?" he asked.

Toby looked up "Oh! You're awake!" he exclaimed, noticing the exchange of a tenner from Connor to Abby out of the corner of his eye. Becker nodded.

"Oh, um… Sweeney Todd" said Toby.

Becker made a face.

"You don't like it?" asked Jess.

"Not really" said Becker.

Jess shrugged and held up Becker's discarded IPod "Can I use this?" she asked.

"Sure" said Becker, stifling a yawn behind his hand.

"Matt!" piped up Connor "Are we there yet?"

"Don't start that"

"Are we though?" asked Toby.

Matt didn't answer. Toby and Connor exchanged wicked grins before starting up a chorus of "Are we there yet" 's. Matt grumbled like a bear as he manoeuvred past a tractor.

Two minutes later and they were still at it. Matt's grip was getting tighter on the steering wheel, Emily had her eyes closed. Becker had switched off from the rest of them and was gazing absently out the window. Abby and Charlie were talking about animal rights.

"Oh for god's sake!" Matt exploded "We're there when we're there!"

Toby and Connor burst out laughing.

"You are both such children" said Emily, eyes still closed.

Toby stuck his tongue out at her behind her back; she spun around and glowered at them.

"Sorry miss" squeaked Toby and Connor, genuinely terrified. Abby started laughing.

"You've got to teach me that!" she said between laughs. Emily just smiled at her and resumed her earlier act of watching Matt drive.

Ten minutes later and Becker had joined Jess in listening to his IPod. Toby and Connor were talking about computer games they must get and Abby and Charlie had moved on to talking about how restricting working at the ARC is on your social life.

Matt finally stopped the van, sighed, stretched and said "now we're here"

Do I really need to ask? Review = faster update guys :D
