Callum and Lizzy stood on the roof of the nick, trying to come to terms with what was going on.

'What time are you leaving?' Callum asked.

'Becker wants to be on the road at one. Should get back about half five or later, depending on traffic.' Lizzy said.

'It'll be weird without you here. I've quite enjoyed having you here.'

'I've enjoyed being here. I would stay, but Locksford needs me. We were a Sergeant down, but now I take the job. Can't run the nick on just one Sergeant and one Inspector, can we?'

'Tell me about it. I had to do that until Jo took the role.'

'Jo Masters? I've heard a lot about her. She's a great cop.'

'You will keep in touch, won't you?'

'Callum, you know I will. I've found someone who understands.'

'Is there not a way you can stay just a little longer?'

'Is this you trying to ask me out on a date?'

'Yeah, I think it is.'

'I'll see if I can convince Becker to let me stay overnight and come back over tomorrow. He might understand better than I hoped.'

'He's like a Dad to you, Becker?'

'Yeah, a much better father figure than what I had. At least he's not trying to blow me up like a piñata.'

Callum and Lizzy laughed at that. He looked at her and leaned closer, kissing her as much as he dared. He pulled her closer, neither of them wanting to let go. They slowly part for air.

'If you can stay, I think that would be a taster of tonight.' Callum was a little out of breath.

'Then I'll make sure Becker lets me stay for tonight.' Lizzy tried to gather herself.

The two of them walked off the roof, down the steps. They walked into the nick and found Becker getting ready to pack their case files.

'Becker, can I have a word?' Lizzy asked quietly.

'You want to stay the night, don't you?' Becker knew.

'Is that alright?'

'Just make sure you're back for the night shift tomorrow.'

'Thank you.'

'Callum?' Becker called him over.

Callum walked to Becker and Lizzy.

'Look after her. If you hurt Lizzy, you'll have the entire Locksford nick on your back to make your life as difficult as possible. You hear me?' Becker almost snapped at him.

'Yes, sir. Cristal clear, sir. She'll be in safe hands.' Callum tried to assure Becker.

'I'll pack the car and then I'll leave. You can clear up any loose ends, Sergeant Reading.' Becker shook her hand.

Becker carried the boxes out the room. Smithy entered the room and saw Lizzy.

'The case is closed now. They'll be charged, as they've all confessed. No more bombs from them for now.' Smithy tried to be nice.

'Good. Becker will leave once the car is packed, but I'm staying behind in case there are any loose ends that need tying up. You'll also need someone from my station to sign off the case, so it's good I'm hanging back.' Lizzy explained.

'Getting with Stone, are we?' Smithy knew.

'Like you and Stevie, sir?' Lizzy raised an eyebrow.

'Right. Well, we may need to get the evidence logged. Maybe you can help Callum do that?' Smithy offered, getting the hint Lizzy knew everything.

'Yeah. Why not?' Lizzy shrugged.

Callum led her out towards the evidence cupboard. Smithy walked through the station and found Stevie getting a drink at the machine.

'Hey Stevie.'

'Hey Smithy.'

'How about I get you a proper drink tonight, the two of us?'

'Yeah. I'd like that.'

'It sounds like Callum's doing the same with Lizzy.'

'Callum and Lizzy?'

'Apparently so. She's staying overnight and going back tomorrow. I think Callum's got to her.'

'It's cute. She's brought out this side of him we don't see.'

'I'm surprised Becker went for it.'

'He knows how Lizzy is better than we do. He wouldn't have let her if he thought she was in danger.'

'I think Callum's dangerous anyway. I doubt Lizzy knows what she let herself into.'

'That's how it goes. At least there's no cross rank relationships for them to worry about.'

'Like there are with us?'

'Yeah. Does that worry you?'

'A little, but I think we can find a way.'

'You sound like you're up to something.'

'Do I?'

'Yeah, well, I guess I'll find out tonight.'

Stevie smiled innocently at Smithy before leaving up to CID. Smithy chuckled to himself, knowing he'd have to pull it out the bag to impress Stevie. He got back to his office, checking all the paperwork until the shift finally ended. Stevie found him coming out the changing room, not in his uniform. They left together, seeing Callum and Lizzy getting into Callum's car. They drove off, not spotting Smithy and Stevie sneaking away towards Smithy's flat.

Callum and Lizzy arrived at Callum's flat. Lizzy was impressed by what she saw. She put her bag on the sofa and looked back at Callum. Callum walked to her and planted a kiss on her lips, leading her into the bedroom as he did so. Lizzy let Callum ease her onto the bed, both of them craving what was about to happen. Callum pulled away slowly, moving to remove Lizzy's shirt. His hands gently grazed her skin, making her giggle at it carefully tickling her. Callum then came back for more, making her giggle even more, her shirt on the floor.

Smithy and Stevie got back to Smithy's flat, Smithy going straight for the alcohol and pouring out into two glasses.

'Was the pub not good enough?' Stevie asked.

'Not quite.' Smithy handed a glass to Stevie.

They both sat next to each other on the sofa, drinking their glasses dry. They put them down on the coffee table, both of them looking at each other. Smithy leaned closer and kissed Stevie, both of them holding onto each other as they didn't want the moment to end. Smithy's instincts kicked in and he removed his shirt, pulling Stevie closer. They didn't want to separate for air as Smithy moved Stevie round to sit on his lap. Neither of them wanted to stop and they both knew that. The feelings since the gunrunners case were finally free and they only wished they'd done so sooner.
