About: Ashes To Ashes

It was about ten o'clock; the team were sat at their usual table. Ray was trying to discuss something with Chris, who was trying to talk to Shaz. Alex was sat eating a plate of chips, she'd had spaghetti bolognaise when they first got there but she was still hungry.

"Looks like you've started getting some padding finally" Gene spoke through a cloud of cigarette smoke "Bit more to hold on to"

Alex hit him playfully and popped half a chip into his mouth before he could take another drag.

"When was the last time you had a decent meal?" Alex asked.

"I don't know, I've just been eating when I've hungry to be honest"

"Well why don't we go up to the flat and I'll cook you something?"

Gene shook his head "I'm alright, I'll just have a few of your chips"

He took a small handful of chips and shovelled them into his mouth. After stubbing out his cigarette, Gene pushed his chair out and rubbed his hands together.

"Don't stay up too late you lot, I want you all in bright and early tomorrow morning"

He was answered by a chorus of 'Yes Guv' to which he then turned to Alex and took her hand, pulling her to a stance.

"Right then Lady Bolls, let's get you to bed" he entangled his fingers with hers "You've been through a lot recently, we both have, and you could do with a good night's sleep"

Alex let go of Genes hand and let him put an arm around her waist, after he took her bag of clothes from her. The pair walked casually up the stairs to the flat. Once outside Gene backed Alex against the door, a mischievous grin pasted across his face.

"Mr Hunt what are you doing?" she giggled.

He ran his thumbs back and forth across her cheeks before letting his hands wander down her body until they stopped at her stomach.

"It's hard to believe that we're going to have a kid together"

Alex reached into the bag that Gene was carrying for her, pulling out the scan and handing it to him.

"Oh wow" he gasped "That, that's our baby?"

"Yeah it is"

Gene knelt down in front of Alex, placing the scan against the centre of her bump before kissing the photo.

"Have you finished?" she smiled as she looked down "I'd like to put my feet up and watch some telly"

"Of course" he stood up and used his key to let them both in "There you go my lady, your sofa awaits"
