Nick and Carla had been back in Weatherfield for a week now and yet still nobody had any idea they were there. They had literally spent the whole week in bed,not either one of them wanting to move unless they absolutely had to. Nick started to shift in the space next to her so she knew he was awake.

"Morning Gorgeous" Carla murmured in her groggy morning voice which was by far Nicks favourite thing in the world.

"Good Morning Beautiful" Nick mumbled back smiling, still half asleep.

"I love you, you know" Carla told Nick smiling into his eyes before giving him a quick but meaningful kiss on his lips.

"I know...I love...you...too" he whispered back in between kisses.

They had been laid in bed for about an hour now and neither of them had said a thing.

"Nicky, I'm bored" Carla admitted looking up at her husband.

"Oh, thanks. I didn't realise I was that boring" he said chuckling.

"No, not of you. Just of being in this flat. I've not seen sunlight in 6 days. We've not even opened a window" she said laughing.

"Well let's go out then?" He suggested.

"Out? Where?" Carla questioned.

"I don't know. Anywhere. You pick baby" Nick said giving her a kiss.

"Can we go to the rovers?" Carla asked.

"The rovers? Sure, if that's what you want" He told her smiling.

"I wanna see Michelle. She's probably worried sick, I've not even texted." She explained whilst moving from nicks embrace and getting out of bed.

"Okay, I'll just nip for a quick shower. Then I'll be good to go" Nick told her.

"Alright,do you want me to scrub your back?" she said giggling.

"As amazing as that sounds you better not because I won't be coming out of that shower for a few hours if your in there with me" he said chuckling back remembering when he had said that to her all those months ago.

"Okay,I did offer" she said laughing again. "Try not to miss me too much in there" she added.

"I'll try" he said closing the door to the bathroom.

"Nick!" Carla shouted banging on the bathroom door. "Nick come on, open up I need to brush my teeth" Carla said whining like a little kid.

"I said I'll be one minute Carla,just be patient" Nick called mid way through washing his hair.

"Just let me in Nicholas. It's not like I've not seen it all before" she pleaded.

"Oh for god sake Carla. Fine, let me unlock the door and then get back into the shower and then you can come in" Nick told her.

"Nick... Hurry up. We've got to meet Michelle soon" Carla informed her husband.

"Alright alright" he said unlocking the door.

"You can come in" he added.

"Thank you" Carla said as she walked into the steamy bathroom and picked up her toothbrush.

"Don't take too long brushing your teeth. I wanna get out in a minute" Nick said.

"I'll take as long as I need Nicky boy. Ill make you wait in there all day if I want to" Carla threatened.

"Oh yeah? Then I'll just do this!" Nick exclaimed as he moved the shower curtain and squirted Carla with the shower head.

"NICK! OH YOU DID NOT JUST DO THAT!" She yelled at him.

"Oh but I did" he said chuckling.

"IVE JUST PUT THIS OUTFIT CLEAN ON" she said half serious, half joking.

"Oh well. You'll just have to take it off again won't you." Nick said seductively.

"I don't think so Tilsley!" She said picking up the tooth paste and squeezing it out so it went all over him.

"CARLA! Stop. It's going everywhere!" He said in a high pitched voice.

Carla couldn't even reply, she was laughing so much.

"All over the new tiles Carla!" He shouted pointing at the newly tiled wall.

"Nick! Stop it! I'm gonna wee!" She said unable to stop herself from laughing at his response.

"I can't believe you've done this Carla,it's so immature" he said giving her a stern look.

"Your the one who started it." Carla joked.

"Don't ever flick toothpaste at me again!" He said laughing trying to get it out of his hair.

"What... You mean like this?" She questioned picking up the toothpaste tube and squeezing the remaining content back into his hair.

"Oh its on!" Nick said jumping out of the shower and throwing on his boxers as quickly as he could. He picked up Carla and carried her into the shower.

"No Nick! I'm sorry. Don't put me under the shower" she said laughing but also shouting. "Nick I'm gonna get wet!" She added.

"Yeah that's the plan" he said smirking at her. And with that he put her down in the shower and quickly turned it back on.

"Nick! Let me out" she said laughing. "It's not funny" she added.

"So why are you laughing if it's not funny" he asked.

"Please Nicky. Just let me out" she said putting on her best puppy dog eyes.

"Oh, alright. But you've got to promise never to throw toothpaste at me again!" He told her.

"I promise" she said giggling again.

Carla was drying her hair waiting for Nick to get ready. She had, had to change her clothes as hers were soaking wet.

"Carla! Come here a minute!" Nick shouted from the bedroom.

"I'm drying my hair,I'll be in, in a minute!" Carla shouted back. Nick decided to go and see Carla in the living room instead of waiting.

"Leanne's just rang me" Nick told her.

"Rang you? What for?" Carla questioned.

"She said there short staffed at the bistro and she wanted to know where I was and if I could help out." He explained.

"And what did you tell her?" Carla asked.

"I'm sorry baby,I'm going to have to go in." Nick admitted.

"No it's okay,I needed to talk to Michelle about something anyways." She said.

"You sure? I could tell her I can't and stay with you." Nick offered.

"Nick just go to work,we were going to see Michelle anyways." Carla ordered.

"I love you Carla Connor" Nick told her.

"I love you too Nicky. Now quick, get to work they need you" she ordered again.

"Ring me later, yeah?" He said.

"Of course,don't miss me too much" she told him.

"I'll try not too" he said giving her a long meaningful kiss.
