CHAPTER: 9

Aaron and Jackson stared into eachothers eyes, as the registrar finally proclaimed them united as a couple...fully in the eyes of the law, Hazel was tearful, but Chas on the other hand couldn't wait for the after party to get started, any excuse for a booze up for her, as Aaron and Jackson sat at the desk signing their names on the register, everyone whispered in the hushed silence...Aaron hated the formal bits...to be honest deep down, he was more like his mother than he'd care to admit...the after party WOULD be the best bit.

The happy couple finally exited the ceremony room, and led their guests into the registry offices garden area, where Joe and Paddy started to take a few shots of them on their cameras, Hazel faffed about with her new digital number she had bought especially...and Chas was still etching to get back to the Woolie, " ohhhhhh...you know how much I hate me picture taken..." she whined to Aaron.

Aaron glared at her, " oh great, so in years to come folk will look at them and say...errrr...Aaron HAVE YOU ACTUALLY GOT A MOTHER...", Chas reluctantly agreed and plastered a smile for Joe as he snapped on of her with Hazel, with Aaron and Jackson...the two mothers standing behind them as they sat on an iron bench with Jack sitting in between them.

Joe smiled at them, " I've think I've some good ones here mate...", Jackson patted him on the shoulders, " cheers mate, you've done me proud today...Aaron looked at his ring and twisted it around his finger, Jackson came over to him, " I wonder how long it will be until that disappears from yah finger..." he laughed, Aaron laughed too, " YOU can talk...we both don't particularly have ring friendly jobs"

At the limo, Jack was starting to get fidgety and ran away from Pearl when he spotted his father approaching with Aaron, the little lad grabbed Jackson's hand, " I want to go now..." he whined, "in a minute son...just a little while longer..."told Jackson, Jack stamped his foot, Jackson grabbed his mother, who was trying to work out how to retreath the pictures she had snapped on her camera, " Mum...can you settle Jack...he's getting fidgety", Hazel took the boys hand, " come on my little darling, lets see if we can count the buses going by shall we...Jackson used to like doing that when he was your age..."

Aaron pulled a smirk, and watched Hazel and Jack move away, " wheels on the bus go round and round...",Jackson pulled him a frown, " shut it...it was a phase...anyway, most boys wanna drive a bus hey...", Aaron shook his head as they reentered the registry office to organise their certificate, " not me mate...it were racing cars with me..."

After arranging their certificate to be sent to them...Jackson looked at the direction of the gents and smiled cheekily...he grabbed Aaron's arm and pulled him inside the gents...and then into a cubicle, "what yah up to..." hissed Aaron, Jackson was already pulling his trousers down, " you are gonna have to sort me out..." Jackson gasped, hungry for his new partner, Aaron shook his head, but licked his lips, " but THEM lot are waiting for us...", Jackson was desparate, he placed his hand on Aaron;s head and forcing him to his knees, " who cares...let em wait...I need taking care of first...", a smile plastered his face, as Aaron couldn't resist, but teasingly Aaron was about to ablige...when he looked up, " I thought you said later...", Jackson sighed with sheer sexual frustration, " will yah just shut yah trap and get on wit it...anyways IT IS LATER..." then as Aaron went to work he began to grin like a cheshire cat...

After, both boy's tidied themselves up, and hurried back to the waiting Limo, where Chas complained about how long they'd been...Aaron made an excuse and stole a sneaky knowing smile to Jackson...especially when he could still taste him...Chas turned, " how about you give yah old mum a kiss...", Aaron pulled a face, " nah...you're alright..." Chas smiled at him, "oh go on...you know yah want to...", Aaron shook his head, " believe me you don't wanna go kissing my lips..." then he went red, Chas sat back rather shocked, Hazel looked puzzled, "have I missed something here...", Chas turned , "you dirty little buggers...and with us waiting here...have you no shame...Hazel, you'd rather not know love..."Jackson stared at Aaron as to say 'did you have to', Aaron buttoned his mouth and gazed out the window for the rest of the journey back to the village.

When they arrived back at the village, the limo parked in front of the Woolpack, Chas was first out the car, "boy...I need a drink now!" she laughed, " Hazel rolled her eyes at her, "is that all YOU think about", Chas turned to her as she hurried to the pubs doors, " no love...I'm just saying...this is always the best bit to a wedding...", Jackson and Aaron now stood beside Hazel, " can you two just learn to get along..." suggested Jackson glancing at both of them, Hazel shrugged, " I suppose...but SHE has to make an effort too..."

Aaron came forward, " hey...it's not just her you know!" he spat, Jackson held his partner back and turned to his mother, " go inside the pub please, and get Jack something to eat...", Hazel took Jack's hand and they disappeared into the pub, Aaron waved his hands in the air, "it's a wonder how they manage to sleep under the same roof THEM pair...!", Jackson took Aaron's hands and smiled, " shush...I just want a minute before we go in there...", Aaron smiled up at him, "yeah...I suppose we are gonna be in so much demand...we won't have much time for eachother trying to please everyone...", Jackson pulled out something from his jackets inside pocket, Aaron stared at plane tickets in Jackson's grasp, " to...to where..." asked Aaron, " skiathos...just think...the 3 S's " Jackson teased, Aaron pulled a smile at him, "oh yeah...sun...sea...and..." he trailed.

Jackson placed an arm around Aaron's shoulder, " can't wait me...all that hot sun on me fit bod!", Aaron pulled him a frown, " and then there's ALL that swimming naked in the sea...like we did in Lanzarote hey...", Aaron's smile faded...as he thought of Jackson in the sea...a panicky feeling over came him, Jackson put the tickets away back in his pocket, he frowned at Aaron's down looking face, " hey...are you okay sunshine..."

Aaron looked up and nodded, " course...just need a pint down me that's all...", Jackson took his hand, " then let's go make our grand entrance then..."

As they stepped into the pub, there was no big welcome awaiting for them...just Hazel raising her voice angrily with a pointed finger, " YOU CAN'T DO THIS...NOT TODAY...YOU'LL BREAK HIS HEART...", she suddenly turned as did everyone else in the pub, Aaron and Jackson stood at the entrance doors open mouthed...they were just staring straight ahead to the source of Hazel's anger...to little Jack who was in somebodys arms...

...Jackson's face fell, and Aaron turned feeling his pain...

...Jeff and Sarah were back...
