Chapter Two

That afternoon most of the morning shift was on refs and were sitting in the canteen. The girls were sitting at one table and the boys at another.

"I'm so glad its refs." Hannah sighed. "I hate the Bronte Estate. Anyway what's been happening around here?"

"Well I heard that Gary had a sleepover at Sgt Hartley's house." Kerry replied.

"Really?" Yvonne asked. "Where did you hear that?"

'You guys really do gossip too much." Summer cut in. "It's their own business who they sleep with."

"From Mandy up in CID." Kerry replied. "Who heard it from some other people. Summer, if you think we're big gossips then you've never been on the receiving side of one of Mandy's famous history lectures. That girl knows every little detail of our love life including the past cops. Who would have thought our little Gary would become our sergeant and then sleep with one?"

"Things have changed." Yvonne replied. "Ever since CID and CSU joined, it hasn't been the same."

"I wish we knew what happen to Honey." Kerry said. 'You just can't disappear of the face of the earth. She has to be here somewhere."

"Maybe she doesn't want to be found." Summer said.

"Isn't she the PC I took over for?" Hannah asked. "The one that ran off. Maybe she had an illegal boyfriend and eloped with him."

"Or maybe she had a secret love child with DS Hunter." Kerry giggled.

"Guys we shouldn't be talking about Honey like this." Yvonne cut in. "It's not nice."

"We don't know what really happen to her, so we have to guess." Hannah said.

On the other side of the canteen, the guys were sitting together except for Reg.

"Huh what." Matt asked snapping out of his fantasy. "What's going on?"

"You would know if you'd been listening." Tony snapped. "And not day dreaming about Kerry again."

"Sorry, I can't help myself." Matt replied. 'I can't believe I'm dating her."

"Well she's sleep with every other male in this nick and you're the only person left." Gabriel said.

"Thanks, that really helps." Matt said sarcastically and Gabriel being the bad copper he is didn't notice this.

"That's okay." he said happily. "Have a good day, Rob?"

"Not really." Rob replied. "I've been stuck in the cold with Matt and nothing interesting has happened. Sgt Hartley and Gary were talking about their night of passion."

"Really." Matt asked. "Is that true."

"I think it is, cause I heard about it from Kerry who heard it from Mandy in CID." Tony replied. "Our little boy is all grown up."

"I wish I was back in CID." Rob said wishfully. "They didn't need to demote me."

"Well it was your own fault." Tony answered. "You're the one who messed up."

"It was an accident." Rob said. "I couldn't help that a little girl had gotten in the way."

"I suppose." Gabriel said. "But I think they were right to demote you."

Just at that moment, Reg decided to join their table.

"I've just finished reading an awfully good book." Reg said sitting down. "It's about ..................."

Everyone else sighed and got ready to block their ears.

"MUMMY!" Emma cried, as she ran through the door of Honey's work place.

"Hi baby." Honey replied. "How was kindy. Did you have fun? Thanks Lee for dropping Emma off."

"No Problem." Leeanna Birch answered. "Bye Honey, bye Emma."

"Yeah, I drew a picture and gots to pick the story." Emma said cut in excitedly. "Only good girls get to pick."

"Wow that sounds like an exciting day." Honey said. "Let's see the picture then. Who's in it?"

"Well that's me and you, mummy." Emma said pointing.

"And who's that?" Honey asked pointing at the stick figure with no hair.

"That's my daddy." Emma said quietly. "Why don't I have a daddy? Sophie's gots a daddy and so does James. Where's mine."

"Oh Em." Honey sighed, tears welling up in her eyes. "I'll take you to meet him one day. When the time is right."

"But daddy's day is coming up and we having a party." Emma replied. "I'll be the only kid with no daddy there."

Emma started to cry and Honey picked her up and gave her a hug.

"It's okay, darling." Honey cooed and for the rest of the day Honey thought about what Emma had said.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That night after Honey had put Emma to bed; she went into her cupboard and pulled out a box from the back and sat down crossed legged on her bed. She pulled out a photo. It was taken at the last Christmas party Honey had been to.

"I miss you guys so much." Honey whispered to the photo, taken five years ago. "I wish I could be back with you now."

Honey pulled out a photo album full of photos of her time in Sun Hill. She was going to close it, when a picture caught her eye. It was of her and Cameron Tait; Emma's father. It was taken on a hot day and Cameron had just water bombed Honey and Gary conveniently had a camera. Honey smiled at the memory. And then at that moment it hit Honey. Emma couldn't grow up without a father and Emma wanted to meet him. So what was stopping her going back to Sun Hill? A million doubts ran through her head, but she new it had to be done. Honey Harman and her daughter were going back to Sun Hill.
