Chapter Thirteen
Waking in Stevies bed the next morning, Smithy glanced over to find the small blonde gone. He sat up, hearing music from the kitchen he pulled himself to his feet, before making his way to her. She turned round and grinned at him as he padded his way into the kitchen. He ran his eyes up and down her body, she was wearing her dressing gown, he couldnt help but feel excited knowing that was all she had on. "Come on then... what have you done with my clothes?" he asked, a slight smirk on his face, as he fiddled with the duvet wrapped round his lower body. She laughed "I dont know what you are talking about Inspector Smith". He moved over, pushing his lips down onto hers. He sighed contently as he pulled away "Well... they were there when you took them off last night and they are gone this morning". Stevie laughed "They are safe". Smithy ran his hand through his hair, chuckling at the small blonde "It sounds like you are holding them hostage". Stevie nodded " I am... You can have them back when I get what I want". She ran her hands down his chest before stopping just above the duvet. "And what is it that you want DS Moss". She grinned, pulling at the duvet so it dropped to the floor "Well.. I suggest you get yourself in that bedroom Inspector Smith". He couldnt help the laugh as she mimicked his words from the previous evening. He took her hand pulling her back along the hallway and into the bedroom. After an eventfull hour or so in her bedroom, she finally surrendered his clothes, she watched from the bed as he took them from her cuboard and pulled them over his body. Once dressed he moved towards her leaning over her bare body he kissed her lips "Im gunna go home and get changed.. I've got a de-brief with Meadows at eleven, maybe we could have lunch after". Stevie nodded before pulling his lips back down to hers.
Arriving at the station Smithy couldnt help his grin, he was back where he belonged and out of that hell hole. He made his way to the male locker room, pulling his uniform from his locker he was actually releived to pull it over his body. He made his way from the locker room towards Jacks office, he stopped as Stevie walked along the corridor with Mickey. He smiled to the two as Mickey nodded "Catch me up Serge" and with that they were alone in the surprisingly empty corridor. He grabbed her hand pulling her towards his body, he gestured down to his uniform "So.. you still want me now Im back to normal?". Stevie ran her hands over his shirt and grinned "Well I do like a bad boy..." she paused letting out a cheeky laugh "But I am still in love with you, so I guess I'll have to put up with you being boring old Dale eh?". He smiled pushing his lips down onto hers. As he pulled away she removed his hat placing it onto her own head. He laughed and straightened it slightly "It suits you... ever considered coming back to uniform". She laughed "You'd love that eh?". He laughed before returning his lips to hers, he pulled away grabbing his hat from her head "I have to go... meet me in my office in an hour" he smiled.
Knocking on Jacks door, he was surprised when the door swung open. "Inspector Smith... come in". Once inside Jack pushed the door shut and gestured to a seat before sitting down oppisite Smithy. "How are you?" Jack asked. "Im ok Sir.. just glad it is all over". Jack nodded "Well... we have enough to charge Renolds and Stanford". Smithy smiled "It was worth it then". Jack nodded "Now I know you were assulted when you first went in... do you want to press charges for assult?". Smithy shook his head "No I have decided against it". Jack nodded "Im expecting your report on my desk tomorrow morning and then I am giving you a weeks leave". Smithy smiled "Of corse Sir... but I really dont want time off". Jack smiled "Well it is your choice but the offer is there". Smithy shook his head "I want to get straight back into it". Jack nodded "Well I suggest you get on with your report then.." he paused as Smithy stood from the chair "And you can leave out any intimate details of DS Moss, and your relationship". Smithy gulped, this was the bit he was dreading "Sir.. I can explain..." Jack interupted "It is your buisness Inspector... but you keep your relationship strictly professional at work". Smithy nodded "Yes Sir". The phone on Jacks desk began to ring and he stood from his seat holding his hand out to shake Smithys "Well done Smithy". Smithy made his way to the door as Jack sunk back down into his chair picking up the phone "Superintendent Meadows...".
Jack walked into CID and glanced around, "Terry, Max... come here" he and the two men made there way over to where Mickey and Stevie stood. "There has been a stabbing at Longmarsh..." Stevie was sick of the prison, she would be happy if she never had to step foot in there again. "Max I want you running this with Terry but chances are you too would know the lad, Tom Simpson"
Stevie raised her hand to her mouth. Mickey smiled "Yes Gov, he is a nice kid, only eighteen". Stevie shook her head "Smithy believed he was innocent..." she paused glancing round the men "He became quite close to him". Jack nodded turning to Max "Ok well talk to Smithy.. he might be able to help you". Stevie smiled "Tom... is he ok?". Jack shook his head "By the time they found him he was already dead, they think he had been there over an hour". Stevie could feel her eyes filling up "Sir can I tell Smithy.." she asked. Max inturupted "It is our case" Stevie glared at Max before returning her eyes to Jack. "Sir... I think after everything Inspector Smith has been through this needs to be done sensitivley... I am the best person to do that".
Jack nodded "I agree... but you do it now Stevie".
Stevie took the two cups of coffee from the machine before making her way to his office, she knocked lightly on the half open door before pushing it fully open with her foot. "You alright Moss?" he grinned as she moved towards him placing the coffee down. He smiled as she opened her mouth but no words formed. "Whats wrong Stevie... have you changed your mind about us?" she shook her head "No Smithy... you are all I want". She took hold of his hand, he smiled "Come on Stevie... you are worrying me now what is going on?". Stevie nodded "There has been a stabing at Longmarsh". Smithy gestured to himself "Well its not me.. you dont need to worry". Stevie smiled slightly "It was Tom". Smithy stood from his seat and banged his fist against the wall behind him "Fuck... is he ok?" he turned to face her "Stevie... is he ok?". She shook her head "Im so sorry Smithy... there was nothing they could do". Smithys face angered "Who was it?". Stevie shook her head "I dont know... Max and Terry are in charge of the investigation". Smithy glared at her "He was eighteen Stevie he shouldnt even of been in there". Stevie placed her hand to his shoulder "I know... he was a nice kid". Smithy pulled away from her "This is your fault.. I asked you to look into his case". Stevie shook her head "Its not my fault Smithy... I did look but I didnt have much spare time, I was gunna do it when the Stanford investigation was finished". Smithy glared at her "Well.. there is no fucking point now is there?". She smiled weakly moving towards him "I know you are upset Smithy... but I want to help you". Smithy stared at her "Maybe if you had put as much effort into Toms case as you did trying to get me into bed he would still be alive". She shook her head "That is not fair Smithy... I know your upset but this is not..." he inturupted "Its all about you eh? its all always about you, you dont give a fuck about anything except what Stevie Moss wants". She stared at him, she couldnt quite believe how nasty he was being, they had had disagrements in the past and even heated arguments but he had never been nasty to her, this was a side to him she never knew existed. "Thats not fair Smithy". He glared at her "You know what.. we are done" he pushed her towards the door. "Smithy... you dont mean that". He smirked "I do yeah... me and you... we are over now get out my office". He pushed her through the door slamming it behind her.
