Chapter One

Eighteen months had passed since there last holiday and the friends remained as close as ever, Smithy and Callums friendship had raised to a new high and they even went out drinking together. The girls all remained equally close with Stevie building a close friendship with Bella and even looking after her son Zack now and again. Kirsty and Leon were planning their wedding in the coming summer. Nate and Bella still spending time getting to know each other. Callum and Mel were talking of moving in together. While Smithy and Stevie were living together and still having trouble keeping their hands off each other.

"Ok guys.. I have spoke to my friend Vicky and she is happy for us to go and stay with her.. so whos coming?". Leon shook his head rising from his seat at the end of the table "Count me and Kirsty out.. we are saving for the wedding". Mel smiled as he walked away "Nate.. what about you and Bella?". He shook his head "Bella is going home for a month so she is out". Callum smiled "You can still come?". He smiled slightly "Yeah.. I guess I could". Ben smiled "Is this open to anyone?". Mel grinned "Corse... you can come if you want". Callum smiled as Smithy approached the table "You get out the dog house yet Gov?". He smirked slightly "I think I am gunna be in there a while yet... she went mad at me". Callum grinned "The joys of being under the thumb". Smithy nodded "Yeah... but its only cause she cares". Mel smiled to him "Are you and Stevie coming to Turkey... I need to know numbers by tomorrow?". He smiled "Yep.. we are in". Mel grinned as Stevie and Mickey walked past the end of the table. "Serge.. Smithy said you are coming on holiday yeah?". Mickey interupted before Stevie had a chance to talk "Can I come?". Mel smiled slightly "I dont know if we will have enough room Mickey.. you might have to share a room". Stevie shook her head "He can have my place.. Im not going". Smithy sighed "Stevie.." she glared at him before walking away. Mel shook her head as Smithy smiled to her "She will come.. count a place for her". He stood up and began to follow the small blonde detective. Mickey rested down onto a chair "Can I come or not?". Mel smiled "You can come.. but you will have to sleep on the sofa?". He nodded "So long as the sun is shining Im happy". Mel glanced to Callum "So its me and you in one room, Stevie and Smithy in another, Nate and Ben will have to share" she smiled slightly as they both groaned. "Mickey on the sofa... and then Vicky can stay in her room.." she grinned "So we are sorted". Ben smiled "If Stevie dont come can Smithy share with Nate and I will go on my own?". Callum laughed "Are you joking.. if Stevie dont go.. Smithy wont be allowed to go".

"Oi... will you get over it already?" he sighed grabbing her arm. She glared at him "Get off". He smiled "It was one night Stevie.. you know where I was... Callum has told you I stayed at his". She shook her head "And its not like he has never told a lie for you is it". He smiled "I am with you.. I love you, why wont you trust me?". She laughed lightly "Well.. when you dont bother coming home what am I ment to think". He smiled "You know what if it makes you happy I wont go out any more... I wont go out unless you come". She shook her head "Im not gunna hold you prisoner". He smiled "Your not.. I want to be with you". She smiled slightly "Smithy.. I dont mind you going out and having a laugh.. I dont even mind you not coming home.. but you could have rang or at least picked up your phone when I rang you.. I was worried about you". He smiled placing his lips gently to hers "Im sorry.. I should have rung you.. so are you gunna let me make it up to you now?". She nodded "What have you got in mind?". He took her hand "I was thinking a week in Turkey?". She placed her lips gently to his "You better spoil me". He nodded "When have I ever not spoilt you?".

Mel grinned approaching her friends in the pub. "Right we are all booked and ready to go.. we fly out three weeks today". She smiled to Stevie "Its going to be me and you against this lot.." Stevie laughed "Well.. Mickey can pass for a woman" she narrowly avoided the penny he chucked at her before turning back to Mel "What about your friend we are staying with?". Mel smiled "She will be working most of the time.. but Im sure she will help us keep this lot in there places". Callum lent into her lips "You will make a great Sergeant one day". Stevie smiled as Callum and Mel cuddled up to each other. She glanced up as Smithy sat down next to her, he lent in and gently kissed her. "Stevie.. I really have to thank you.. for finaly putting a smile back on his face.. he has been such a grump the last week" Nate smiled. She laughed "Well PC Roberts.. you can blame Sergeant Stone for that". Smithy grinned "She wouldnt stay mad at me for long... she was itching to get me back into bed". Mickey mocked being sick before turning to the two couples "Are we seriously gunna have to watch you lot all over each other while we are away?". Smithy grinned "Yeah.. I cant wait" he pulled Stevies lips back to his. Mickey lent into Bens ear "I do hope that this Vicky is fit". Nate sighed "I really wish Bella was coming". Stevie turned to him "Just think when you get back she will nearly be coming home again". He nodded "I will still miss her though... she leaves in a few days its gunna be so quiet without her and Zack".

Stevie and Mel grinned as they walked slowly round the shops trying to find anything to wear for the holiday. "What about that?" Mel asked gesturing to a small dress. Stevie shook her head "I wouldnt wear it... but Im sure it would look great on you". Mel sighed "Thanks". Stevie laughed "I didnt mean it like that". Mel picked it up "Just try it on Serge". Stevie rolled her eyes taking the dress from Mel and walking to the changing room. As she pulled her clothes off, her phone rang, she pulled it out and smiled down the phone "Bella.. we are in Topshop changing rooms.. meet us here". She hung up and continued to get changed. Hearing the excited voice of Bella as she greeted Mel, Stevie pulled the curtain open to reveal her body now in the dress. Bella grinned "You look amazing.. are you going to buy that?". Stevie shook her head "Its not really me". Mel laughed "Stevie... you look stunning". she turned round and glanced at her reflection in the short black dress, met by a bow round the stomack. "I bet Smithy wont be able to keep his hands off you in that..." Bella grinned leaning into her ear "Wear that on a night out when he cant grope you at every chance he gets.. it will torture him". Stevies eyes lit up "You think?" she asked turning back to the two women, who both nodded. Stevie smiled "Ok... I will get it.. but you need to keep it Mel.. I dont want him seeing it before we go".

"Im gunna miss you.." she grinned wrapping her arms round Stevie. Stevie smiled pulling her away "I will miss you too... but at least when you get back we can compare tans". Bella smiled as Smithy walked through the living room door way. "We gunna get going Stevie... Im sure Nate wants her to himself for a few hours before she leaves". Stevie nodded "Yeah Im coming... make sure you give Zack a kiss from me". Bella nodded and grabbed Stevie pulling her into another hug, she lent into her ear "Keep an eye on Nate for me.. while you are away" she whispeared. Stevie nodded "He wouldnt be so stupid" she whispeared back before walking to Smithy. "I will see you in a month". Smithy lent accross and placed a slight kiss to Bellas cheek "Have a good time in Spain". She smiled "Have a good time in Turkey and make sure you treat her like a princess.." she gestured to Stevie as Smithy wrapped his arms round her. "I always do". Once outside Stevie wiped her eyes slightly, he smiled placing a kiss to the top of her head "You are a big softy at heart Moss". She smiled "Im gunna miss her.. she is my best friend". He smirked slightly "I thought I was your best friend?". She grinned "You used to be.. but I cant moan about you to you can I... or talk about sex". He smiled "What have you said?". She laughed "I tell her everything". He nodded "Well.. I dont feel so bad about talking about you in the locker room at work now". Her mouth dropped open slightly. He grabbed her arms as she went to hit him and pulled her tight into his body "I love you Stevie Moss" he grinned placing his lips to hers. She smiled as he pulled away "I love you too Dale Smith".

The day of the holiday grew nearer and the friends were all excited. The night before Mickey and Nate had both stayed at Smithy and Stevies house, to avoid missing the five AM flight. Ben was first to knock on the door at three, waiting for an answer he sighed before leaning down to the letterbox. "Open up would you... the taxi will be here in half hour". Stevie walked to the door and pulled it open "Do you have to shout PC Gayle... we are trying to sleep" she grinned letting him in he ran his eyes slowly over her body as she stood in only a tiny nighty. He walked into the living room and rested down next to Nate. He smiled as Stevie walked from the room, muttering about waking Smithy. "She is quite fit eh mate when she is dressed like that". Nate smiled "Wait until she is laying round the swimming pool in a tiny bikini". Ben grinned "Maybe this holiday is gunna be better than I thought". Nate shook his head "You got a death wish or something.. you lay a finger on her Smithy will kill you" Ben nodded "There is no harm in looking though". They both jumped at his voice in the door way "No.. I will kill you for that too... so keep your eyes and your hands to yourself". Ben smiled slightly standing up "Smithy.. I er..". Nate stood up and made his way from the room. Smithy turned back to Ben a slight smirk on his face "Its fine Ben.. she is fit I cant blame you for looking.. just make sure you keep your hands off her". Ben nodded "Corse Gov.. I wouldnt do that". They both turned as Mickey walked into the room water dripping from his hair. "What happened to you?" Smithy smiled as the water ran down his t-shirt. "Your fucking girlfriend happened to me... she tipped a glass of water over me". Smithy smiled "Yeah she used to do that to me to wake me up... then she found an easier way" he smirked slightly. Mickey shook his head "What sort of idiot booked such an early flight?". Smithy gestured to Mel and Callum now stood in the door way "That would be them two". Mickey smiled slightly as Callum glared at him, Nate just behind them having just let them in. Stevie appeared in the door way now fully dressed and grinned round her friends "Right.. we all ready to go.. the taxi is here".
