Read and Enjoy!
Jackson was storming from smithy cottage towards the garage, this morning he
woke up in a cold bed without Aaron beside him and he was fuming, he didn't
mind being left alone in bed but what he did mind was that Aaron was obviously
hiding and running from the fact they still hadn't had a discussion over Jackson
wanting to make something solid for there future, a future that didn't have to exist
solely in emmerdale village, Jackson had been offered a job as manager for a
reconstruction company for two years in Spain and he really wanted to go but not
without Aaron firmly by his side, like he always was
he arrived at the garage with a face like stone, he looked really angry
"oops someone is in trouble, wouldn't want to be Aaron" Debbie says to Cain,
Cain smirks back at Debbie
"Aaron get out from under that car, NOW PLEASE" jay says angry at him
"keep your knickers on, he is working you know" Cain says
"hey, what you doing here" Aaron says
"I came to see where my boyfriend was, you know seeing as he left this morning
"without as much as a goodbye"
"I didn't just leave Jackson, you was asleep, you know how sweet you look when
you are sleep, I didn't want to wake you, I was enjoying the view too much"
Aaron smirks at him as the words leave his mouth
"you need to try better than that to get round me Aaron, it wont work this time"
but the way he says it shows Aaron he doesn't mean it
Cain and Debbie laugh out loud
what are you two like, eh?" Debbie says
"can I take him for lunch" Jackson asks Debbie as she nods her okay at him
"come on then grumpy" Jackson says as he takes Aaron hand and drags him
away from the garage
Aaron and Jackson are walking up to smithy cottage, both there hands together,
there fingers entwined with each others, once inside smithy kitchen
"so are you gonna feed me then, that is what you dragged me away for"
"actually I dragged you away so we could talk"
"okay, so where are you taking me, babe?"
"to a hotel in Leeds, we can talk properly there"
Aaron eyes light up with mischief and lust
"get that look off your face Aaron, I have booked us a table so we can have a
meal in the restaurant not in the bedroom, you are sex mad you know that?
You only want me for my body" Jackson says smirking at him
Aaron moves towards his back and places his hands around his waist while
the other hand brushes along the waist band of his jeans and boxers, his head
rests on Jacksons shoulder and he starts to slowly kiss his neck
"no Aaron, we are gonna be late" Jackson says as he moves away from him
"why cant we just stay here, I can show you how sorry I am for leaving you
this morning"
"I said no Aaron, just go upstairs and get changed out of the overalls"
"come with me baby, you know you want to" Aaron says winking at him
"babe, if I come upstairs with you we wont be going to that restaurant
anytime soon" jackson laughs at him
"spoilsport" Aaron says as he walks upstairs
(1 hour later)
Aaron and Jackson arrive at the hotel in Leeds, they walk through the door and
wait it be taken to a table Jackson booked earlier
"can I help you" a waiter says
"yes I booked a table for two" Jackson tells him
"name please"
"Jackson Walsh"
"yes okay, can you follow me please"
Aaron and Jackson follow the waiter to the table they was to be seated at,
all the way to the table Aaron is constantly looking at the waiter, frowning at
him, his eyebrows pulled together and his jaw is clenching, he is angry,
Jackson notices the way Aaron is looking at him
"just sit down will you, stop staring at him, its rude" Jackson says smirking
"im not staring at him"
"yes you was, you just got caught"
"just shut up, why would I be looking elsewhere when I have got you,
he couldn't take his eyes off you , who does he think I am, your brother?"
Aaron tells him
Jackson rolls his eyes and grunts at him
"just calm down will you, so what will you have" Jackson says pointing to the
menu
(1 hour later)
Aaron and Jackson had both eaten and were taking about anything and
everything, Jackson was dreading the conversation he wanted to have with
Aaron about Spain
"I need to know what you have decided" Jackson says
"what" Aaron says confused pulling his eyebrows together
"Spain Aaron, they need me to start the job in 2 weeks, we need to make
a decision and soon"
Aaron shrugs his shoulders, he doesn't want to have this conversation
he is scared, scared of moving away from everything he loves and everything
he knows, the one thing he is scared of the most is losing the one person who
means the world to him, the one person he loves with his whole heart and soul
"what do you want me to say Jackson"
"I want you to say you will come with me, that you love me enough to
actually think of someone other than yourself for a change"
"I know im sorry"
"im going Aaron, with or without you, so its your choice"
Jackson learns over and takes Aaron hand in his across the table, he leans
forward and kisses Aaron passionately across the lips, just one strong kiss
"lets go home baby" Jackson says
(inside smithy cottage)
(next morning)
Jackson is sat up in bed watching Aaron sleeping "god he is so beautiful"
"when did I get so lucky" Jackson thinks to himself
(one hour later)
Jackson was getting dressed, Aaron was downstairs chatting to paddy while
getting his breakfast
"what's wrong Aaron" paddy says
"Jackson"
"is this about Spain, what are you so afraid of?"
"im scared it will end, lets face it paddy he is bound to get fed up eventually,
then he will leave me"
"that wont EVER happen, he loves you too much"
"does he, there isn't much to love is there, im a bad tempered git"
paddy laughs at him
"yea you are but you are Jacksons bad tempered git, he loves you Aaron,
despite your faults"
"he doesn't love me paddy, he just thinks he does"
Jackson is stood at the bottom of the stairs frowning, he cant believe what he
is hearing, Aaron doubting how he feels about him, doesn't trust in his feelings
for him, "hell he doesn't trust me full stop, that is why he doesn't want to go
to Spain" he quietly slips through the front door, hoping he wont be noticed
Jackson knows what he has to do
(1 week later)
Jackson has done his best to avoid Aaron for the past week, making excuses
with his job so he doesn't have to spend anytime alone with him, he has
booked a flight to Spain, he has decided he is going without Aaron, it
clearly isn't what he wants, but he feels he has no choice
(inside dale head)
"you cant just go and not tell him" hazels says as Jackson comes down stairs
"im not, give him this" he hands his mother a letter
(10mins later)
(at the garage)
"Aaron, Jackson asked me to give you this" hazel says
"couldn't he have given it to me himself"
"he has gone, im so sorry love"
"gone, what do you mean?"
"just read the letter"
hazel hands Aaron a letter Jackson has wrote explaining how much he loves
him but that he cant stay, inside is details of where he is staying and a flight
ticket incase he changes his mind and decides to join him, Aaron looks
on horrified, he is devastated he never spoke to him before he decided
to leave, he pulls off his overalls and runs from the garage
"where are you going" hazel says
"to the airport, where do you think"
hazel just smiles back at him, "I knew he loved you Jackson" she thinks
Aaron is running up the road to smithy, into his bedroom, he starts to pack
a bag, stuffing as much clothes into it he can, paddy hears a lot of commotion
upstairs so decided to go upstairs
"can you take me to the airport?" he asks as soon as paddy enters his bedroom
"the airport, why?"
"Jackson has gone, I need to find him"
(40 minutes later)
they arrive at the airport, Aaron jumps out, he thanks paddy for all he has done
for him, hugs him and runs towards the entrance
"good luck"
"thanks paddy"
there isn't much time before the flight leaves
BUT...WILL HE FIND HIM IN TIME
