Chapter Twenty-one
She backed away from him, glancing out over the sea she shook her head "No.. no Smithy.. I cant do this again". She headed quickly back along the beach not daring to glance back at him, a few seconds later she felt his hand round her wrist, she turned back to face him and shook her head "I cant Smithy.. I cant marry you". He sighed "I love you". She nodded slightly "I know that... and I love you too but... how could we ever work.. I live here and you go back to London in a few days". He smiled "Im not saying we have to do it quickly... you can come home.. move back with me". She shook her head "No.. Im sorry.. I have to get back to Ella" she turned away and he grabbed her wrist "What are you so frightened of?". She shook her head "Im not frightened". He sighed "Then what would you call it... I used to be so proud to call you my girlfriend.. but as soon as the going gets tough you run". He started to walk away and she grabbed his arm and he spun back to her "You have no idea.. no idea the things I have been through and you.. you walk back into my life and expect me to just drop everything.." he tried to interupt but she rose her hand to cut him off "I cant handle it happening again.. if we row and you decide to jump into bed with someone else.." he shook his head "I have told you... that wont happen". She laughed "Well I never thought it would in the first place.." he sighed "I cant do this... how ever much I try.. Im never gunna convince you". She smiled "I wish things could be easy.. but I have no idea if I am ever going to move back to London". He smiled "Ok.. thats fine.. I will move here if it means I can be with you". She shook her head "They wont transfer you... we are over staffed as it is.." he nodded "Ok.. I'll quit.. retrain.. do something new". She laughed "Like what?" she asked "You love your job.. you have worked your arse off for the last twelve years.." he cut in "And you are more important". She sighed "You cant just give everything up..." he smiled "Thats not your choice Stevie". He started to walk away and she smiled "Do you love me?" she asked and he turned back to her "D'you really think I would be standing here... trying to get you to marry me... if I didnt love you.. if I wasnt more than sure.. you are the woman I am meant to spend my life with". She moved up and into his lips, kissing him gently. He let out a sigh as she pulled away "I wish we could say everything was going to be perfect Stevie.. but I dont know what else to do now". She smiled "I love you" she sunk down onto the sand and he sighed before copying her action. He took her hand and smiled "If you tell me.. right here.. right now... that we are gunna be together.. I will go back to Sunhill and quit". She sighed "I love you but.. I cant pick up the pieces if it all goes wrong.. I cant explain to Ella that we were happy and then we arent... its to much". He smiled slightly "So you are frightened things could go wrong?". She sighed "Im frightened I am going to end up exactly the same way I did two years ago... I do love you.. but how can we even consider getting married... after everything". He smiled "You know what..." he glanced down at the sand and ran some through his fingers "We didnt start off great.. you and Mark.. me and Lisa.. everything that has happened.. the miscarrage.. the fire.. Ella... its all in the past.. we need to concentrate on the future.. our future.. you, me and Ella.." he took hold of her hand and used her finger to draw a line in the sand "That was so easy..." he grinned "Now.. we can put everything that has happened this side of the line and be the other side.. and make us work". He smiled "Lets draw a line under everything". She nodded as the tears began to escape her eyes "Ok.. so if all the bad stuff is that side of the line.. whats this side?". He grinned "You aggreeing to marry me would be a good start?". She nodded "Ok.. I'll marry you Smithy". He laughed "For real?" he asked. "Yeah.. you are everything I want".
She pushed into his lips and he smiled as her hands pushed on his chest and he layed back onto the sand. He smiled as she swung her legs over his body so she straddled his lap. She pulled the zip on his coat down and began to unbutton his shirt, he pulled back from her and smiled slightly "Lets get home". She shook her head as she pulled her top up and over her head "Stevie.." he smiled. "Where is your sense of adventure?" she asked as she rose her eyebrow. "Its November". She glanced down "You afraid the cold weather will make it hard to measure up... in a mannor of speaking". He laughed "No I am thinking its bloody freezing". She smiled as she moved her arm round and unclipped her bra, he smirked "Jesus Stevie.. what are you trying to do to me?" she leant in and pecked his lips "Seduce you". He sighed "Lets go home and you can have your wicked way with me". She smiled as she began to unbutton his jeans, he smiled "Stevie". She slipped her hand inside and let her hand wrap round his erection. She toyed with him for a few moments before he pushed her off him and over and onto her back. "You are a bad girl" he whispeared against her lips before he began to kiss her, passion in his body, he moved his hand to her legs and pulled at her knee so it bent upwards and he dropped his hand down her thigh and between her leg, she tilted her head back as he rubed at her through her clothes. She moaned loudly and he grinned before moving his lips to her neck and sucking gently. His lips moved down and onto her breasts and he sucked at her nipples. she moaned once again and he glanced up at her a smirk on his face, he looked devious and she had absoulotly no idea why. His hands moved to her hips and onto the top of her loose bottoms, he gripped them and she lifted her body allowing him to pull them down. A smirk covered his face as he glanced down at her near to naked body "Now these nickers Moss..." she interupted "Are not coming off" she smirked as he toyed with the material of her little red french nickers. He nodded before slipping his fingers into her nickers and deep inside her, she moaned loudly that only appeared to spur him on as he pushed another finger inside her. She tilted her head back and she groaned his name, closing her eyes as he owned her body. The contact stopped and she opened her eyes to see him standing on the sand, his jeans undone and his erection clear through the gap, his top was still unbuttoned and she sat up to get a better look at his features. "You want me to sort that out?" she nodded towards his erection and he smirked and she felt very uneasy as she noticed her clothes bundled up under his arm "The thing is Stevie... I have been working out.." she nodded "It shows.." he smiled "But.. I could out run you before.. so now.." he glanced down the beach and as the relisation of what he was going to do hit her, he sprinted off accross the beach. She jumped to her feet and chased after him, holding her naked body as she went.
When the blonde had caught up with him, he rested on the sand just round a rocky corner, she smiled "Where are my clothes?" she asked and he smirked as he slipped his jeans off and she suddenley realised he had already discarded his coat and shirt, despite it being November she felt flushed as he stared at her, she was trying to cover herself but it just wasnt that easy as he eyed her smooth legs and her area covered by only a tiny piece of material and her slim stomack and breats barely hidden by her hands. "Now why would I want to give them back to you" he moved his hand into his underwear and played with his erection and he smiled "Move your hands.." she shook her head and he nodded "Thought you might say that... but every order that you refuse to fulfil Miss Moss will result in a piece of clothing you wont be getting back". She let her amrs drop to her side and he smirked as her nipples came into sight. "Lose the nickers..." he smirked and she bit onto her bottom lip as she slowly dropped her red nickers down her body. She twisted them in her fingers, he smiled slightly "Chuck them here" she moved forward and passed them to him. He layed back on the sand and smirked "I want to see you do it.." she interupted "Do what?". He grinned "Play with yourself.." she shook her head "I cant Smithy... not here" she glanced round and he rose to his feet and moved towards her, he pushed her legs apart and smirked "Show me Stevie". She gulped as he took her hand and moved it between her legs, it was degrading and humiliating but she knew he could see in her eyes that she was loving every second of it. He rested back down onto the sand and she watched as he grabbed for his jeans. She stared into his eyes as she began to rub at her clit, watching as excitement grew over his face and in his underwear. He smirked "See you can remember how to do it with an audience.." he smiled before nodding to the ground "Sit down". She gulped before sitting down infront of him, he moved in closer to her and pulled her knees apart, he stared at her, taking in every inch of her body, she knew he liked to look but today he seemed to annalise every little detail and she silently thanked herself she was looking on top form. He smiled slightly "Carry on". She dropped her hand back between her legs and began to play with her clit once again, he moved nearer and pushed her knees futher apart, she gulped as he gripped her hand and produced a vibrator "Where'd that come from?" she asked and he gestured to his jeans "My pocket... now Miss Moss... I want you to fuck yourself.." she gulped "Wouldnt you rather do it?" she asked as she moved her hand over the now very visable buldge in his underwear "Mmmm but.. I dont wanna get caught.. and its only just gone nine.. anyone could be about". She smiled "So its ok for me to get caught?" she asked and he nodded "I love to see you blush". She gulped before taking the toy from his hand and turning it on. She layed back onto the sand and let the toy linger at her opening. She gulped as she eventually worked up the courage, it stretched her and she let out a loud gasp. She could feel his eyes on her as she moaned in pleasure. She felt his thumb tease her clit and her eyes shot opened and she stared at him, he moved onto his knees between her legs and leant into her lips. A few moments passed before sat back onto the sand, he pulled his underwear down to reveal his erection, he took her hand and pulled her onto his lap, she moved the toy and a smirk covered his face as he took it from her "I spose I should have a turn myself.. I dont want you thinking Im up to the job do we now?" he leant into her lips and kissed her genly before lowering her onto his manhood, she gasped as he filled her and she glanced round the beach "What happened.. to not wanting.. wanting to get caught?" she panted. He grinned "Some times its worth taking a risk". He dropped his hand to her clit and rubed gently, she moaned against his lips, she couldnt contain it. A few moments passed before they climaxed together and he panted against her lips "You have no idea how much I want you". She smiled "I want to have a shower... I have sand in places you cant imagne.." he cut in "Can I find them?" she giggled before raising from his body. "Now Inspector Smith... can I have my clothes?" she asked and he rose to his feet and pulled his clothes on before heading behind a rock and reapearing with her clothes. She clipped her bra up and pulled her top on. "Knickers?" she asked and he shook his head as he pushed them into her pocket "I think I will hang on to them". She pulled her jogging bottoms on and he held his hand out to her and they made their way along the beach.
Arriving at Danni's he kissed her gently before raising her hand and tapping on the door. Danni smiled as she opened the door with Ella wrapped up in her arms, she passed her to Stevie and smiled "I have them photos you asked me to print off for you". Stevie nodded "Ok.. I'll grab them tomorrow". Danni shook her head "No.. you get Ella home.. Smithy can come in and get them". Stevie smiled slightly "What are you up to?". Danni kissed Ellas head "Nothing.. come in Smithy". Stevie kissed his lips "Behave yourself" he smiled and nodded before watching Stevie head down the road and into her home, he then followed Danni inside, she headed through the house and into the room at the far end of the house. "You into photography?" he asked as he glanced at the many photos on the wall. She nodded "Its my proffesion... looking after Ella is a sideline". He nodded "I guessed it werent your full time job..". She passed him an envelope and he smiled "May I?" he asked and she nodded "Be my guest". He opened it up and glanced at the photos inside, he flicked through them and smiled as he stared at the last one of Stevie and Ella, posing for the camera. He grinned "This is lovely". Danni nodded "Yeah.. I can do you a copy... unless you would rather just have one of Ella". He smiled slightly as he pushed them back into the envelope "Whats that meant to mean?" he asked. She smiled "Stevie is my best friend... I dont want to see her hurt". He sighed "I love Stevie with all my heart... you dont even know me". She nodded "Your right I dont know you... but I know Stevie and I know she is frightened..." he frowned "Of me?" he asked, Danni nodded "She thinks you are only interested in Ella". He shook his head "No.. she knows how I feel about her.. I love her so much". She smiled "Make sure she gets the photos". He nodded "Yeah... corse" before he turned and headed to the door. She followed him to the front door and he pulled it open before turning back to her "For the record I love Stevie.. I would never hurt her.. not again.. losing her was the biggest mistake I have ever made and believe me I have made mistakes... I would never forgive myself if I lost her again". He headed out of the door and accross the road towards Stevies house.
Once inside Stevie smiled "Ella is settled in bed... I have got us some wine out..". He cut in "Your photos.." he placed them to the kitchen table and she smiled "Thanks.. I was thinking we could drink this in bed". He smiled "Why?" he asked "Why on earth would you want to go to bed with a user... someone you believe is only with you for your daughter.." she cut in "What did Danni say?". He smiled "Obviously enough Stevie.." he sighed before gesturing to the photo "You look beautiful" he moved out of the kitchen and she sighed before placing the bottle she had in her hand to the table before she made her way after him. She caught up with him in the bedroom and she smiled as she noticed he was packing his bags "Where are you going?" she asked and he sighed "I cant be here with you.. not now I know you thought I have been.." he paused as he dropped his bag onto the bed and tuned to face her "How could you think I would use you.. spend the time I have with you.. make love to you.. just to get Ella". She smiled "It wasnt like that.. I didnt say that.." she moved over to the bed and sunk down on the edge "I told her.. I just told her that you loved Ella.." he cut in "She is my daughter.." Stevie smiled "And would you of gone to the amount of effort you did to get me back if I wasnt the mother of your daughter?". He sighed as he grabbed his bag "I cant believe you actually need to ask me that question" he headed to the door and she grabbed his wrist "Where are you going?" she asked and he sighed "To a hotel... I will be back to see Ella in the morning.." she cut in "Please dont do this Smithy". He turned to her and wiped the tears that ran down her cheeks "Stevie I dont want to be in a relationship with someone who thinks that little of me..". She shook her head and grabbed his hand "I dont.. I honestly dont Smithy... I told Danni in the begining that I was worried.. but now.. I have no doubt.. I love you and my life is complete with you back in it.. please dont walk out on me... I cant not have you". He smiled "I do love you Stevie.. but I need to know that you understand that.. I have told you I will move down here for you.. I will give up everything". She smiled "Please Smithy... forgive me?" she asked and he pulled her into his chest "I will never hurt you again Stevie".
The rest of his time had passed quickly and he was due to go home the following morning and Stevie was struggling to cope with the idea of him leaving and returning to Sunhill, to that woman. She sat cradled in his arms, he pulled the covers further round their bodies. "Smithy.." she glanced at his features, his eyes pressed shut and his lips parted slightly "Mmmm" he mumbled and she sighed "I dont want you to go home tomorrow". His eyes shot opened "I know darling.. but I have to work". She sighed "I know... I just.. I hate the idea of you and her living together" he glanced down to her "You are worried about Lisa.. Stevie since you came home I have only spent three nights at home... none of which she has been there.. I have been staying with Callum and Jen.. I wont be able to once their babyis here but at the moment..". Stevie sighed "I feel a little better but.. I hate it.." tears began to roll freely down her cheeks and he wiped her eyes "Listen to me.. you cant do this Moss... dont cry... I love you and we will sort out me coming down... or you coming up really soon". She smiled "I know.. but I hate not knowing when I am going to see you again.." he kissed her lips "I promise it wont be long.. I will see you soon my darling... I love you so much and I cant wait to make you my wife and spend my life with you".
