The next few days on set were long, but Allison felt that Hannah was opening up to her again. They enjoyed some laughs on set, and it helped put Allison at ease. It was now mid-week and Allison hadn't talked to Tom since the night she watched Sierra, and her conversations at Ben were short considering their schedules. She was sitting off set watching the girls work on a scene when she got a text from Jared.

I just sent you the video, check it out and let me know what you think.

Allison smiled as she put in her ear buds, as the video loaded. She watched it over, and could feel the fire in her cheeks as the part came on with her and Jared sharing a rather deep kiss. She didn't realize that Devon was standing next to her, looking at the video she was so focused on. Once the video was over, Allison pulled out her ear buds and sent Jared back a message.

You just amaze me Jared, that was so, there are not enough words to describe how perfect that was. And yes, I'm all twisted now!

She looked at her phone for a second, until Devon spoke up.

"That was an interesting video."

"Oh shit, you saw that."

"I've been standing right here for a while now, yea I saw it. You looked, fierce." Allison let out a nervous laugh as she tried to hide her embarrassment.

"Um, thanks." Devon could see she was embarrassed, so he smiled at her before talking.

"Don't worry, I won't say anything to anyone. I'll pretend I didn't see it too." Allison finally raised her eyes up to see his.

"Thanks."

"I do have just one question though, what was that for?"

"It's a music video."

"Oh. Well, hey, I think Hannah might finally be getting over you not wanting to tell her about your relationship."

"You think, I felt so bad when she got upset at me, I wanted to be able to tell her, but I just don't know if she would understand, I don't even understand it."

"Well, I think she realized now that you didn't mean she couldn't grasp the subject, just that you couldn't explain it to her."

"Good, I miss our talks, she blows me away."

"Me too, just like her mother." Devon cleared his throat as the girls came off set, Mike saying they had worked hard enough for the day. As Allison drove home, she got a few text on her phone, and as she sat at a red light she glanced at it, seeing it was a photo. She went on home, and only after she got inside did she look at the texts. There was a photo Mary had sent her oh Ben and Martin being ridiculous, and Allison couldn't help but smile. The second picture was just Ben by himself, and he had this surprised look on his face, making Allison laugh.

You have to work hard to keep those two in line don't you.

I do, but they want me to tell you they miss you, we all do. When you going to be out then?

29 days! Three weeks! wooo hooo

OH, so you're nearly finished then, that's great.

Yea, then I just have a few stops to make before I bring this ass back to London

ha, good. Ben said you are going to go meet your brother.

I am, and it works out that he is going to be at my mom's house, so I'm meeting him there.

That is wonderful.

Yea, saves me some time and I get to see my mom too.

When you get here, we will have to have lunch, just the two of us.

Absolutely

OH, Ben is leaving, says he's going to give you a ring, we'll talk to you soon.

you will! give everyone my love.

Like clockwork, Ben called her just moments after she had sent the text back to Amanda.

"Hello Dear."

"Allison sweetheart, are you busy?"

"Nope, Mike sent us home saying the girls had worked extra hard today."

"Oh, so we have time to talk then, or anything else that may come to mind." Allison let out a slight chuckle before she spoke.

"We do."

"I miss you terribly."

"I miss you too Ben."

"What do you miss most?" Allison thought about it, breathing in deep before talking.

"There is so much, you. They way you rehearse lines in the shower, how you hold me close in bed, they way you bring home flowers after your jog. Your cooking, that is something I never thought I'd say. Your turn."

"The feel of your skin against mine, the taste of my name on your lips, they way you would cuddle up next to me as the fireplace roared. I miss how it was before." Allison closed her eyes, nearly able to cry.

"I miss that too."

"Can you video chat?"

"Of course."

"I'll see you in a moment then love."

"Alright."

Allison hung up, pulling her laptop out and signing into Skype. She curled up on the sofa, waiting for Ben to call, and as soon as he did, she answered. Soon his face appeared on her screen, and Ben was smiling at her from the bedroom. He was laid back, shirtless, and Allison could see mischief in his eyes.

"Hello handsome."

"Hello Miss Thompson."

"Is there anything you would like to speak about this evening Mr. Cumberbatch?"

"Yes, why are you still in clothes, I'm not."

"Oh, well aren't you cold there all alone and exposed like that? I could warm you up if you are." Allison carried the laptop to the bedroom, setting it down on the bed facing her so Ben could see her little strip tease as she played some music. Ben watched with a smirk on his lips as Allison removed every stitch of clothes she had on. Once she was done, Ben noticed a bruise on her side, and it looked rather recent.

"Sweetheart, what happened to your side?" Allison looked down at the bruise, runner her fingers over it lightly.

"This is what happens when an exploding blood pack is put on backwards." Ben's eyes went wide as he looked her over, hating to see the mark on her skin.

"Are you sure you'll aright?"

"Benedict, You have me all hot and bothered, do you think if I was really hurting I would be in this position?" She got on the bed on her knees, sliding the laptop back as she laid down on her stomach. Once she had adjusted the camera, Ben saw the smile on her face.

"Well I would hate to leave you all hot and bothered as you say you are." Allison got immensely turned on and he did his Sherlock head tilt. "What do you want me to do to you love?" Ben was breathless as Allison ran the tip of her tongue over her lips, looking at him as she answered.

"Anything you wish to do to me." She watched as Ben leaned forward.

"Where is that pink toy you have?" A smile spread across Allison's lips as she moved to the bedside table, pulling the toy out of the drawer, then laying back in front of the camera.


Soon the both excused themselves to clean up, and as Allison came back to her computer she was wearing a cute pair of lavender boy shorts and a t-shirt she had stolen from Jared in L.A. Ben smiled as she laid down on her side, pulling the blankets over her as she got comfortable.

"Ben."

"Yes love."

"Nothing, I just wanted to hear you say it." He smiled, thinking maybe it was possible for him and her to get back to where they were before, hopefully.

"Are you tired."

"I wasn't, but I am now. You wore my ass out."

"Then get some rest sweetheart. I need to get some myself."

"Alright, I'll talk to you soon."

"Yes you will. Love you, goodbye."

"Love you too, bye."

Allison shut off her Skype, and let a few tears fall as she laid there in bed. She shut the laptop and rolled over, trying to clear her mind of the stream of thoughts going through it. She then heard her phone ringing. She got up and walked into the living room, finding it still sitting on the coffee table.

"Hello Jay."

"Hey, so you loved it?"

"I did. You are just phenomenal. You know that right."

"Thank you, now what's wrong?"

"This plan, am I doing the right thing?"

"SSShhhh, now stop. Listen to me. You know that we have had this conversation. You will start to doubt you are doing the right thing, but don't doubt yourself. Do you still want it?"

"I do."

"Then this is what you do, put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward."

"But what if."

"Stop. None of that. I am right here for you, no matter what, even if this plan of yours blows up, I will be here. The only thing you need to worry about it what you can control, everything else is a chance we take."

"Jay, thank you. I owe you for this?"

"For what?"

"Being my best girlfriend." Jared chuckled before speaking again.

"This is just my inner Rayon coming out." Jared sat and listened to Allison breathing for a moment before breaking the silence. "What are you thinking about?"

"That I need a hug right now."

"If I was there, you wouldn't have to worry about that either. Or if your ass was here, traveling with us."

"I will be, not that much longer anymore."

"I know, I can't wait. It's going to be a blast."
