Chapter Six

The two men waited impatiently outside the shop. Smithy was weighed down with the many bags of clothes Stevie had already brought. Nate sighed "I know why we normally go for a beer when they go shopping". Smithy smiled "It was your girlfriends idea". Nate smiled "Yeah but she is just window shopping". Smithy gestured to the bags "So Im the only mug having to carry loads of bags". The two men smiled as the women left the shop, Smithy sighed as Stevie clung onto another bag "God have you brought more Moss". She grinned passing him the bag "I think you will like this". He glanced inside before grinning to her "I do hope you are gunna be trying this on for me when we get home". She grinned "Well... that will depend on if you are a good boy". Nate glared at the two "I dont want to know what is in that bag... can we go and get a coffee or something?".

"Im really sorry..." Vicky smiled as she pulled the front door open "I cant believe it wasnt open". Mickey shook his head "I wouldnt worry about it... it wasnt your fault". Callum glanced round the empty bungalow "I think they have gone out". Ben nodded "Maybe Stevie is feeling better". Mel nodded "Or maybe they would just rather go out without us". Callum shook his head "Dont be daft.. they are probably down on the beach or something". Mel glared at him "Yeah... cause you and Smithy cant function without each other". callum shook his head "You are pathetic Mel". Ben smiled "Can we keep the arguments in the bed room". Mel glared at him before back to Callum "Im going for a shower". Callum sighed "Im gunna go and see if they are down on the beach". Vicky smiled "I will come with you". Mickey and Ben rested down onto the sofas "Well that was awkward" Mickey smiled. Ben nodded "Im starting to think this holiday was a mistake".

Hang on a second Stevie called to the two men a few steps infront. They came back and glanced at the jewellery Bella gestured to a ring and smiled to Nate. He grinned "If you like it get it". She nodded stepping inside with him. Smithy smiled to Stevie "You buying anything Moss?". She shook her head "I think I have already broke the bank.. without spending a small fortune on a necklace". He glanced in the window and pointed to one "It that one you like?". She smiled "How did you know that?". He smiled "Cause its beautiful... it would suit you". She smiled as Nate and Bella stepped outside "Ready?" Smithy asked. They nodded and Bella showed her new ring off to Stevie as they walked to the coffee shop. Smithy smiled as they stepped inside, he grabbed Nates arm. "Take the bags.." Nate took them from Smithy "Tell Stevie I have gone for a slash". Nate nodded watching as the two women rested at a table. "Where you going?" he asked. Smithy smiled "To get her something to go with her new underwear". Nate shook his head "I dont want to know... just hurry up".

"So whats the problem with you and Mel.. before you all came here all I used to hear was how wonderfull you are" Vicky smiled as her and Callum strolled along the beach. He shook his head "I dont know... I dont understand why she has flown off the handle so much.. she is all over the place.. I dont get it". Vicky smiled "I get the immpression she dont like Smithy". He nodded "She likes him.. she just like the fact I get on so well with him.. I feel like a prisoner". Vicky smiled "Maybe its time for a fresh break". He nodded "Thats what I thought but I dont want to hurt her.. I care about her.. I just dont see us having a happy ending". She grinned "Does anybody". He smiled slightly "I look at Smithy and Stevie and I know they are ment to be together.. and the same with Nate and Bella.. but with me and Mel I just feel like we have ran our corse now". Vicky shook her head "I dont think they are made for each other.. I could actually see you with Stevie". He laughed "She is a nice woman but she is one hundred percent devoted to Smithy.. no one would come between them.. not that I would want to". She felt her smile fade until his lips gently brushed against hers. She pulled away and stared at him for a second before returning her lips to his.

Arriving back at the house Smithy smiled at Ben and Mickey "What are you lot doing back?". Ben smiled "It was closed... where have you been?". He gestured to the bags he had placed on the floor "Stevie fancied a bit of retail thearapy". Nate went and rested down on the sofa next to Ben and smiled "We were saying.. we should all go out for dinner tonight..". The two men nodded. As Stevie and Bella walked in. "You feeling better Serge?" Ben smiled to her. She nodded "yeah much better thanks". She gestured to the bedrooms "Is Mel in her room?". Ben nodded as Stevie and Bella made there way down the hall carrying Stevies many bags. "So where you wanna go for dinner?" Ben smiled as Smithy sat down "There is a place near where we went today.. its real posh.." Mickey interupted "Will they let you in then". Smithy glared at him but continued with his sentence "Its ment to do great food.. we managed to get a table for us all".

The two women knocked lightly on the door and pushed it open before smiling to Mel as she layed on the bed. "Hi.. we have booked for us all to go to a restaurant tonight" Stevie grinned. Mel shook her head "I dont want to come". Bella moved over and rested on the bed next to her "Come on it will be a laugh". Mel nodded "We all know what a laugh with you is like after last night". Stevie glanced down, feeling last nights mistake catching up with her again. "Thats not really fair Mel it will be different tonight". She shook her head "Well you managed to get through the day leaving me behind.. Im sure you can cope tonight". Bella smiled noticing Stevies face had sadened. "Fine you want to stay here and sulk go for it.. but Stevie wants to wear her dress.. where is it?". Mel pointed to the cuboard where she had hung the dress up. Stevie watched as Bella pulled the dress out and made her way to the door. "Thanks Mel.. Im sorry about today.. we didnt mean to leave you behind it was just spare of the moment" she sighed before making her way after Bella.

Callum rushed to pull his clothes on, glancing at the tall blonde as she did the same. "Im sorry.. that shouldnt of happened"
he sighed. She nodded "We need to keep it between us". He smiled slightly "I need to talk to Mel.. I love her.. she would never forgive me". Vicky nodded "Which is why we cant tell no one". He nodded "Come on we should get back before we are missed". They both made there way towards the house.

The four men sat in the living room when Smithy pulled the box from his pocket and smiled to Nate "You wanna see what I got for Stevie?". Nate looked at him, shaking his head slightly "You tell me". He smiled "Its a necklace" he opened the box and passed it to Nate who smiled "Its nice". Ben glanced over Nates shoulder "How much did let set you back?". Smithy smiled "A couple of hundred". The mens mouths all droped open "I hope she is going to appreciate it" Mickey smiled. Smithy grinned "I dont care if she dont... I will when she is wearing nothing else but that". Ben smirked "That is an expensive shag". Smithy smiled as he stood up, he took the box from Nates hands and made his way to the corridor "And worth every penny".

He pushed the bedroom door open and ducked as Stevie chucked a pillow at him "D'you mind we are getting changed". He smiled running his eyes up and down her body in her new underwear. He smiled to Bella as she stood ready to go in a small black skirt and white blowse "Can you give us a sec?". She nodded "I will be back in a minute" she smiled to Stevie. Once she had left the room he pushed the door closed and tunred back to Stevie. "I hope you havent come to sexually harras me Inspector" she grinned. He smiled walking over to her "I hadnt but now you come to mention it" he pushed his lips gently onto hers. He grinned as he pulled away "I have come to give you this.." he held the box out to her. She opened it and grinned slightly "Is this for me..". He shook his head "No I brought it just to tease you with it... corse its for you". She smiled "Smithy.. you didnt have to get me this". He nodded taking it from the box "I know.." he wrapped it round her neck and cliped it up. He let his eyes run over her slim figure before resting on the shinning necklace "It suits you". She grinned leaning up into his lips, she kissed him, feeling his hands play with her hair she couldnt help but grin as he pulled away. "I love you but you need to get ready Moss... or we will leave without you". She grinned "Get out then.. give me a bit of privacy". He grinned making his way to the door.

"Where you been?" Callum asked as he walked into the living room a few steps behind Vicky. "We went shopping..." Bella smiled "Stevie wanted to get out for a couple of hours". Callum smiled as Smithy walked into the room. Smithy in turn just glared at him before walking to the kitchen he reached in the fridge and pulled out a bottle of water "Im sorry... for what I said you know what Im like the brain comes into gear after my mouth". Smithy turned to face him "You were out of order". Callum nodded "I know.. I feel really guilty Smithy.. I know it was nothing to do with Stevie she was just in the wrong place at the wrong time". Smithy nodded "Ok.. we can forget it" he held his hand out and Callum shook it. "Where have you and Vicky been?" he gestured towards the voices coming from the living room. Callum smiled "To look for you lot on the beach". Smithy nodded "You made up with Mel yet?". Callum glanced down "No not yet.. but I have finally realised that she is who I want.. I am gunna put things right with her". Smithy smiled "Well maybe you can talk her into coming out tonight?". Callum shook his head "Is she not coming then?". Smithy smiled "Apperently not.. and we booked a restaurant for us all". Callum smiled "I will go and talk to her".

He walked into the bedroom and smiled at her sitting on the bed. "You not ready to go yet?". Mel shook her head "Im not coming". He smiled "Mel.. do you want to sort things out with me.. cause if we dont talk then we wont be able to". She nodded "Of corse I want to". He grinned leaning into her lips he placed a peck to her soft lips, he pulled away "Come on then.. you best get ready or they will leave us behind". She smiled slightly "Are we going to be ok?". He nodded "We will be fine... I just think we need to sit down and have a proper chat later... make up properly". She nodded "Give me ten minutes then and I will get ready".

Bella grinned at her from the door way "What do you think?" Stevie asked. Bella nodded "He wont be able to keep his hands off you". Stevie grinned running her eyes over her reflection in the mirror "You sure its not a bit much". Bella shook her head walking over and glancing at her own reflection "No you look gorgeous". Stevie smiled "Shall we forget them and go out on the pull instead.. I bet we could find some right gorgeous men here". Bella laughed "I think we will keep that as plan b". Stevie nodded "Yeah I have become quite fond of Smithy anyway" she smiled "And besides Im quite looking foward to teasing him". They both jumped at the voice in the door way "Room for one more?". Stevie turned to her "Corse... Mel we didnt mean for you to think we had left you behind.. we jus..." Mel interupted "Its ok I was angry at Callum and took it out on you, Im really sorry". Stevie opened her arms and hugged her friend "Its fine... you and Callum made up now?". Mel nodded "I think so.. Im hoping we are finaly back on track". Bella smiled between her friends before gesturing to the door "We gunna go show these men how lucky they are". Stevie nodded and they all made there way to the door.

"We are ready" Bella smiled from the door way. Vicky glared at Stevie as Smithy stood up from his conversation with Callum,
his mouth dropped open and he found himself speechless as he walked over to the three women, he grabbed on Stevies arm and pulled her away from her friends. "You look.. I mean wow Moss.. I have never seen you look so sexy" he grinned running his hands up and down her slim body. She smiled "You ready to go". He grinned his eyes focusing on her body "Maybe we should stay here..". She interupted "Nice try.. come on". He stared at her biting down on his lip as there friends walked out the door. "Do you know what you are doing to me?" he sighed. She lent up and placed a slight kiss to his lips "I have a pretty good idea". He shook his head "You are a tease". She nodded "And I am gunna torture you tonight Inspector you are gunna be begging me for it by the time we get back". He sighed as she made her way to the door, he was already desperate to get his hands on her how was he going to get through the next few hours not being able to touch her and kiss her. "Come on Smithy or we will get left behind" she called from the door way as he walked over to her.
