I DO NOT OWN EMMERDALE OR IT'S CHARACTERS, THEY ALL BELONG TO ITV1
A/N: THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS...Still not sure how long this story will last for, I can't see no end in sight yet, with new idea's flooding to mind, but I always worry the longer a story is...the staler it gets...I'll try My best not to let it get stale...anyway after yet more issues with my computer, here's chapter 29...xx
Meanwhile Hazel was clearing up Their bedroom at dale view, the duvet had been stuffed on the floor, she huffed a sigh and managed to refit it into it's clean cover, and place it back onto the bed, she then noticed the box beneath the bed...and their was a brown bag sticking out of it..."I don't know...THEM boys and their mess..." she said to herself, she snatched up the bag and looked into it...to see two passports...putting on a puzzled look she pulled one of the passports out and smiled, "awwwww...looks like THEY can go on honeymoon after all..."she told herself, then opening up the passport, she smiled at Jackson's face...until it faded...she had noticed the name...MARC HILL...she quickly snatched up the other passport and opened what would be Aaron's, on opening, like Jackson's, it clearly showed Aaron's mug...but also with a different name...DANIEL SMITH...
She dropped the passports back into the brown bag...she wanted to ask herself, what did this mean...BUT she...deep down...had already guessed what this had ment...and she didn't like it AT ALL...
At that moment moment Chas entered the bedroom, "RIGHT...you can see yah face in that bath in there...you are gonna have to have a word with THAT son of yours...that tub was caked in mud...and I'm NOT being funny love...it's YOUR son who works with the mud..."
Hazel just nodded at her...but it looked to Chas that she had a expression of a bulldog chewing a wasp, "WHAT'S with that face lady...IT'S ME who had to scrub that bath..." Hazel turned to her, Chas was standing in the bedroom doorway with her hands held up in front of her, she was STILL wearing the pink marigolds, "NOTHING...why would there be..."she glanced at her watch, "and look at the time, they're been in a any minute..."
The cab pulled up outside Dale head and Jackson and Aaron jumped out...Sarah helped out Jack as Jackson paid the fare, when the cab headed off, Jackson took Jack's hand and pointed to the house, "THERE you go my little man...home sweet home...". Jack ran to the front door, Sarah smiled...she was SO glad Jack was much brighter...not having Jeff's moods to worry over...and to her to...although Jackson has been initially curt with her...he was like a rock...always in control...knew what was best for them...AS a husband should be...NOT like Jeff...Jackson had been right...Jeff was a useless pathetic excuse for a man.
Inside Hazel was cuddling her grandson to death, "Ohhhhh...IT'S so good to finally have you here again...you are going to be SO spoilt here...", she attacked him with wet kisses, and Chas could see the boy trying to squirm out of her tight embrace, "easy Hazel...you'll cut off the poor lads blood supply...", Jackson came inside and collapsed on to the sofa, " IT'S SO GOOD TO BE HOME...", Sarah was in tow, Chas gave her the once over...raising her eyebrowes at Aaron, who just responded to her with a 'keep out of it' look.
Instead, Chas announced; " I'll make EVERYONE a brew yeah...", Aaron just looked at her...ark at her trying to play hostess to all of them...but it didn't last...as soon as Hazel had clocked her taking over the kitchen...she was in there. after her intefering and arguing over whether it should be pot or teabags...
Aaron rolled his eyes and plonked himself next to Jackson, "THEY don't change do they...WHY can't they just get on...you would have thought LIVING under the same roof for 3 months would have brought them closer together..." he told, Jackson placed a hand on Aaron's thigh, and smirked, "Yeah but...WOULDN'T life be boring IF they did get on...", Aaron had to agree with him...it was a right laugh watching the pair arguing over silly things...Jackson then took the opportunity and pulled Aaron toward him...they were just about to kiss, when Sarah came down the stairs, "Right...Jack's having a little knap up there...SO GLAD you kept his bedroom how it was...", Aaron stood up with a sigh, " I'll see WHY THAT PAIR are taking so long with making that brew..."
Sarah watched Aaron disppear into the kitchen, she turned to Jackson and waveda hand, "Hope I wasn't interrupting anything...", Jackson smiled shaking his head, "COURSE NOT...now I'm afraid you are gonna have to share with Jack...", Sarah sat next to him and smiled, " that's fine...I'm grateful I even have a bed to sleep in...I mean...I could stay over me mums but..."
Jackson shook his head at her, " THERE'S NO NEED...Jack's here...it's only right you are too...", Sarah placed a hand on Jackson's thigh, "YOU are SO good to me...", Jackson nodded at her, then looked up to Hazel bringing in the tea on a tray, "WELL...I DID SAY A POT WOULD BE BEST BUT CHAS WASN'T HAVING ANY OF IT..." she told chewing her lip, Chas waved a hand at her, "no need to go faffing about with some old pot...NOT when we want to celebrate little Jack being home"
Hazel looked about the lounge, "WHERE is he the little munchkin...", Jackson towarded his head upwards, " Sarah said the little man loooked tired...so she put him to bed...", Hazel frowned at her, "NOT really a good idea that sweatheart...he won't settle tonight...", Sarah glared at her, "WELL Jack's a good boy...AND he will for me...", Jackson raised a hand as his Mum and Sarah looked as if they were about to have a heated row, " COME ON...no shouting please...HAPPY faces wouldn't go amiss...THAT includes you Aaron", Sarah laughed out loud over the comment...and Aaron glared at her...it was gonna be a VERY trying time with HER here.
Chas didn't miss THAT laugh, she turned to Aaron and whispered, "do you want me to give her a slap...", Aaron nodded his head, "I SAID...keep out of it..."
Later on, Chas had already left for her shift at the woolie, but Hazel had hung around...she wanted a quiet word with Aaron on his own...THEN...as Aaron headed out the back door for a smoke...she finished the washing up, dried her hands, and followed him out...
Aaron had just wanted a bit of peace...he sat on the outside step and puffed on his ciggy in the early evening sunshine...then Hazel was behind him folding her arms...and her face looking rather bemused, "NOW then...I've been waiting for a moment with you...", Aaron nodded, "I guessed...you've been given me funny looks all afternoon...WHAT IS IT HAZEL", Hazel lowered her voice, " I KNOW...that old bag under yah bed up there..", Aaron swallowed...course he knew what this was about...but he played dumb at her, "WHAT old bag...THERE'S only one old bag HERE I can think of, and it's certainly not upstairs..." he smirked, flicking his ash.
Hazel shook her head at him pointing her finger, " DON'T get funny with me sweatheart...YOU know what i'm taking about...JUST LIKE YOU to get my boy into something dodgy...", Aaron nearly choked on his own smoke, "YOU WHAT!" he gasped at her, "THEM DODGEY passports up there...MY boy wouldn't get involved with anything like that..."
Aaron flicked away his ciggy, and stood up turning to face her...he placed his hands on his hips, "Look...YOU'VE got it wrong...YOU want to know about THEM passports...YOU go ask HIM...", he then pushed his way passed her and went back indoors...Jackson wouldn't have done a runner would he...not without telling his own Mum...but...she didn't want to ask him...because she was scared of what the answer might be...
Aaron came back inside to see Sarah already crashing about in the kitchen...she turned to him, "I'm cooking tonight...LEAST I can do for you guys...for putting me up like...", Aaron nodded at her, " thanks..." although only came across to her half hearted, he couldn't see Jackson in the lounge, "WHERE'S Jackson...", Sarah was opening up a pack of pasta, " upstairs getting Jack up...leave them yeah...it's good for them to have father and son time...", Aaron pulled a face at her, "YEAH whatever...I'm going up..." Sarah looked a but pissed off with that...but there was NO WAY SHE was gonna tell him not to disturb his own LEGAL partner...Jackson was HIS Husband NOT hers...
Aaron paused at the doorway to Jack's bedroom and saw Jackson reading him a story...he smiled at the display...Jackson was good at reading him his comic...but it DID amuse him to hear Jack say, "I like Uncle Aaron reading me...he DOES the voices...YOU can't do it..."
Jackson raised his eyebrowes...and glanced up to Aaron at the doorway, "Well THAT'S because Uncle Aaron's still a kid himself..." he wise cracked...Aaron glared at him playfully...pulling a look of 'just wait till later' .
Aaron entered the room and sat next to Jackson...he linked his hands into his...Jackson gazed into Aaron's eyes...and with their heads slowly coming together...a kiss was on the cards...but with only a hairs breath between their lips, Sarah was at the doorway, " SORRY to disturb...but would you show me where you keep yah plates and stuff..."
Aaron glared at her...PLATES AND STUFF!...she only had to snoop about the kitchen cupboards and look for herself...Jackson stood and smiled at her, "I'll go and GIVE you the guided tour yeah...", Sarah took his arm, " Yes...that'll be nice..." she pulled a smile at Aaron and they left toward the stairs...
IT HAD ONLY BEEN ONE DAY...NOT EVEN THAT...
and Aaron was already FEELING that Sarah staying here for ANY length of time was a mistake...
A BIG MISTAKE...SHE HAD TO GO...
