Two days later James got a call from John Jones to say he has the jag safe in his garage.
"Oh thank you John, I will get out later, much appreciated", a smile on his face as jean walked by.
"I know you love your job Hathaway, I'm glad you smile about it because there has been another body by the river, chop chop", as she walked towards him, he was not jumping out of his seat to go to the scene.
"Oh I do enjoy my job ma'am, but I think I got a better offer that you might like, the jag is off the lake now", as he stood putting on his jacket.
"I think the body is of more importance than the jag", eyeing him up. "Hay now, don't expect me to go out there with you, he had an eye on me", smiling at him as she moved aside for him to pass.
"Wouldn't dream of it ma'am, what if I need someone to hold my hand?" he whispered in her ear as he was walking out the door. She smiled to herself, he had his moments to make her weak at the knees.
Just as Robbie appeared before James was too far down the corridor.
"Oh Robbie, James needs you to hold his hand, he has to collect the jag", sarcastically with a smile on her face, looking from Robbie to James, sticking her tongue out at James.
"Not a chance", said Robbie which made jean's head turn.
"WHAT", almost shouting.
"You two", pointing from James to jean, "got it there, so I think you two can get it out, sorry ma'am", as he walked away leaving jean and James looking at one another.
Throwing her eyes to heaven, "fine", she huffed as she went back to her office. James shouted after her, "THANKS".
He took out his phone and sent a text, "I love when you get all huffy xxx". He went on with his work. She sent a reply, "anyone else would get a different reply, lucky I like you xx".
An hour later he knocked at her office. Just checking to see if you are free to bring me out to the lake?" she stared back at him.
"Come in James, take a seat", as she stood and came around her desk sitting on the edge facing him. She was trying to tease him, as she got off the desk her skirt moved up a little, she then leaned over him looking into his face, where he could see down her blouse.
"Do I look ready to you?" panting as she looked from his lips to his eyes.
"Yes", he said kissing her and getting up from the chair.
"Are you serious?" she stood up to follow him.
"Listen", he moved close to her ear speaking low, "you can seduce me all you want once I get you in that jag", as he cupped her arse.
"Quit teasing me woman, get a move on, you are giving me a hard on like a tent pole", she turned around to him.
"I'm the boss here, no slapping", as she stood with her arms crossed.
Stamping his feet and waving his arms (like Kevin from Kevin and Perry, Harry Enfield) "jean, that's not fair".
She picked up the phone to call for a car to take them to the lake.
She sat in the front, he sat in the back like a grumpy child, playing a game on his phone.
He sent her a text, "not fair, you get to sit in the front", she saw the text and rolled her eyes.
She replied, "I will sit on you if you don't shut up lol".
His phone was on silent so the PC would not figure they were texting one another.
"You can sit on me anytime, but I still love when you are bossy", he could see a smile on her face after that message.
"Really, hhhmmm, very interesting, you won't be sitting after I get a hold of you boy wonder, I love when you don't behave, lol".
They were just arriving at their destination. Jean and James got out of the car. The PC waited until they were on the road in the jag.
When they saw the jag, there were patches of bird poo on it.
"We will have to visit a car wash", he said to jean.
"Oh super, I get to wash your mouth out", as she nudged him smiling.
As they approached the cottage, John appeared at the door, greeting Jean and James.
He handed over the keys of the jag.
"I have to say, it is a beautiful car to drive", John commented on the car.
"Thanks again, better get this car back to my friend".
They got into the car and set off on the return journey. The PC stayed behind them until they were back on the main road.
As they came across a garage they went through the car wash, things got steamy on the inside as well as the outside.
They locked lips.
When finished at the car wash they drove the jag back to the station until Robbie could get it back to his storage unit where he was keeping it.
Robbie was back from the call out, happy to see the jag back. He thought how long it would be in storage before he would use it again. Possibly his wedding, not sure of a date, they would have to discuss this.
He had his own idea of a winter wedding, not sure what time of year Laura would like to get married.
That would be a discussion when they got home from work.
He waited till Laura was finished work for her to follow him while he brought the jag back to storage.
As he got into her car, he leaned over to kiss her, he also just held her hand smiling at her.
"What was that for love?" smiling back at him.
"Does there have to be a reason pet?" his smile seemed to take over his face.
"Well let's get home and talk about it", as he leaned over to kiss her again.
She smiled back at him before starting the car taking them home.
As they pulled into the driveway, he got out of the car, walked around to open the door for her, he took her hand.
They walked to the front door, as he got his key out, she smiled at him thinking, 'such a romantic, this is the man I am going to marry'.
Once they got inside the house, she dropped her bag in the hall, she followed him through to the living room and pulled him onto the sofa.
"Come on old man, what has you on cloud 9?" as she sat on his lap with arms around his neck.
"Well, when I saw the jag back, knowing that I was putting it back into storage. I was thinking when would be the next time I would be taking it out of storage again?" he was looking into her smiling eyes.
"You're thinking a wedding?" she saw the smile on his face get bigger.
"Yes pet, I was thinking of a winter wedding, but not sure what time of year you would like to get married", she started to undo his tie and unbutton his shirt.
"Robbie, I would marry you tomorrow if I could", he like the sound of that as he was running his hands up and down her body.
"I would like nothing more but we would have a few unhappy people", as he was sliding his hand under her blouse and moving his other hand to unbutton her blouse.
"I would like to sit here all night like this but I think I need food, let me make some dinner and we can finish this later", as she got up to go into the kitchen.
She prepared fish and pasta. They sat and ate not talking about much. When they finished they put their dishes in the sink and took their wine back to the living room to discuss their wedding plans.
"Why a winter wedding Robbie?" asking more out of curiosity.
"Don't know why, just the idea of it", he said to her, placing his arm around her shoulder.
"what about you, any idea yourself?" as she look up at him and replied, "Christmas or new year sounds nice but people are usually broke around then or have other plans", moving to place her wine glass on the table.
"How about three months' time, roughly beginning of June, how does that sound?" he was asking her as she took his wine glass placing it on the table.
She moved to sit on his lap facing him.
"Robbie, is that not a bit soon to organise things?" as she was unbuttoning his shirt for a second time tonight.
"Not really, we can get it sorted if we want to, or say about August? a bit more time to get sorted", sitting forward to take his shirt off.
She was running her hands across his chest rubbing the hair on his chest.
"Wow, we are really going to do this?" breaking into a smile leaning in to kiss him.
"Yes, we are Mrs Lewis, I think that has a nice ring to it", as she smiled back at her like puppy dog in love.
"Where to start?" looking into his puppy dog eyes.
"Well I can guess a good start, by getting you up those stairs first", she got off him, putting her hand out to pull him up off the chair.
"I like this idea", as she followed him upstairs.
They talked some more before setting a final date 5th August no matter what day of the week it was. They kissed and cuddled and made love well into the night before falling sleep.
