Until he met her love was just a 4 letter word that people casually threw around, now it was different.

Lewis finally has to face up to his feelings for Hathaway before its too late.

This story is a sort of sequel to 'Life Born of Fire' and another favourite story of mine, 'Words to Live By'. Hathaway meets the woman of his dreams in a rather unexpected way.

Finally, we're getting somewhere...a look at the Hobson/Lewis moments in The Ramblin' Boy.

She's out with her husband, but it's not him she wants. It's a certain young sergeant.

If this is crazy then I like being crazy. *I do not own characters or lyrics*

So that was how it started, that was the beginning of three months of madness that lead up to today. Today I am going to become Mrs Jean Hathaway and I can't wait.

Now together as two couples rather than four friends how do things go for Jean, James, Laura and Robbie now that everything has changed.

There was another crash and the carriage began to tilt spilling them, their drinks and everyone else in the carriage crashing toward the windows with a loud squeal of train breaks and a chorus of panicked screams.

He knew she'd set the bar high with this latest challenge and he was going to have to come up with something very special to match it.

She was feeling particularly under appreciated and the thought of a day with her ex's family didn't do wonders for her mood.

The warnings were there the only problem was that it wasn't out of character, so she had no idea what was to come.

She was normally not someone who did excessive drinking but when she did nothing good ever came from it

Set immediately after the season 7 finale. Spoilers for season 7. James Hathaway goes to discuss his future with DCS Innocent but the meeting doesn't go according to plan.

Their affair is becoming more dangerous. Or are they just getting less careful about hiding it? James knows it will only be a matter of time before someone finds out about them and then the spiral of events that could unfold might be unimaginable. Disclaimer: Do not own these characters, just borrowing!

He loves her unconditionally and now he's done all he can to convince of that but she's scared.

Set before Lewis begins when James is first out of uniform.

He was used to taking her out but tonight she wanted to show him that they could have a perfect night staying in.

A holiday was exactly what they needed, time away where they could be a normal couple and they planned to enjoy it.

They all had feelings of guilt and each one knew that the only way to live a happy and carefree life was to unburden themselves.

A closer look at Allegory of Love...

Lewis and Hathaway investigate a suspicious death. What seems to be a straightforward case of suicide may lead them into some very dark places. Written for the 2013 Lewis Fright Fest Fic Challenge. Lewis/Hathaway. Warnings for suicide of an OC, mention of canon sexual abuse (Crevecoeur), and dark/angsty thoughts.

"Yep and it was just getting interesting numbers five to ten are about interesting and fool proof ways to please your partner. I thought we might give them a try."

"I had to come. You looked amazing tonight. I can't fight this anymore. I want you so much." My mind is drowning in an ocean of questions.. How did he get in? Why did a simple team dinner like ones we have done a million times before prompt this? What does it mean?

He needed to make it up to her and that meant, at least as first, sleep definitely wasn't a option. He had stuff to do, if he couldn't help fix the mess he'd made he could make sure that by the time she got home she might just realise that it was worth it.
