They way we are meant to be

As D.S Sam Nixon entered CID (it was her first day back from a three week holiday) she was hail by two of her best mates Jo and Mickey and one of her ex's Phil.

" Jo your Back." Sam exclaimed

"Ye you just can't get rid of me or at least not that easily." Jo said back while hugging Sam.

"No we can't." Phil butted in then when back to his conversation with Mickey.

"Anyway how was Nottingham?" Sam asked as though Phil had not interrupted.

"Do you want the lie or the truth?" Jo asked.

"Truth please" Sam told her.

"Scary but fun and brilliant." Jo commented.

"Ok." Sam now turned to Mickey and Phil who had just finished their conversation.

"Hi Phil hi Mickey." Sam Said

"Hi." They both chorused back to her.

"Any news while I've been a way?" Sam Asked

"Ye we are getting a new DI hopefully they are nicer then DI Manson" Jo cut of Mickey

"Hopefully not as pofaced as well. Do you know the first thing he said to me wasn't oh welcome back, it was oh your back anyway glad you are you can tidy that desk of yours now it's a mess. I only started back yesterday." Jo explained to Sam as DI Manson walked up behind them, so Sam tried to let Jo know with out words but to late.

" The second is it still is DC Master." Neil said as he walked pass into the briefing room.

"Oops" Sam Phil and Mickey said in unison then they all four of them laughed until Jo and Mickey went to get their assignments leaving Sam and Phil to have a unheard conversation by anyone in CID.

"Sam are me… are me and you still best mates." Phil asked her nervously

"Ye can you come out side for a minute please." Sam asked him.

"Ye." And followed her out CID and round the side of the building. As soon as they were out of sight of the people who worked at sun hill she pinned him up against the wall of their work place and whispered softly in his ear.

"Sorry I dump you can we start again like you ask me out and I say yes but properly and lets tell everyone tonight at the pub be truthful." Sam asked

"Yes so Sam do you want to go out with me?" he asked her.

"Yes I was scared when you told me that you loved me I mean could I trust you and it took the holiday to make me realise the answer is yes I could and that I love you too." Sam said and they passionately kissed his tongue probing her mouth then went back inside to get at least some work done.

For the rest of the day after that conversation Sam and Phil couldn't keep their hands of each other and kept disappearing for some time then coming back all hot and flustered. CID started to get suspicious but it was time to get of to the pub so was not that suspicious. Seeing as it was the only time the whole of sun hill was in one room Sam and Phil decided to tell them all early so some would remember and there was no time like the present they both thought as Sam called for silence.

"Look can we please have some silence." Sam called at the top of her voice as the noise died down.

"We just thought we owed you the truth because Sam and myself are going out." Phil also told the stunned crowed at the top of his voice. Then all of a sudden there was cheers and shouts going like " about time too." And everybody congratulated them while hugging them both, the only person who wasn't happy for them was Stuart Tuner as he stormed out of the pub scowling.

As they all got drunker and drunker they flirted more and more. Then all of a sudden it was time to say night and hug each other one last time and for Sam and Phil congratulations. When they entered the freezing cold night Sam started shivering Phil seeing this draped his coat round himself and Sam whilst keeping her close to keep her warm as they headed back to Sam's.

Sam unlocked her front door and they both went inside and shut the door behind them, as soon as the door was closed Phil passionately kissed Sam on the lips and carried her upstairs.
