Jacob knocked on Connie's door alerting her as he opened it.
"Everything ok Jacob?" she asked.
"Yeah, you doing anything this weekend?" he said.
"I'm sitting infront of my TV with a bottle of red and some reports" Connie told him.
"So no then, look I just wanted to thank you for what you did for me when I was shot so I was wondering if you wanted to come away with me this weekend? I have a log cabin up in Scotland. It's fine if you don't want to, but the offers there. I'm heading off tonight" Jacob said.
Connie hardly had to think about it, "I'd love to come thank you Jacob" she said.
Jacob grinned, "alright, pick you up at six?" he asked.
"Yes ok, I best get home and pack then" she replied.
Jacob arrived at Connie's just before six. She opened the door wearing a pair of skinny jeans, a pair of black boots, white blouse with a black bow at the neck and a black leather jacket.
"Ready to go sweetcheeks?" he asked.
"Connie, not sweetcheeks, and yes I am just let me grab my bag" she said.
"Let me get that, can't have a pretty lady like you carrying her own bag" he said as he moved past her then picked up a suitcase from the floor as she grabbed her handbag.
"Jesus what've you got in here?" Jacob asked.
"Aww too heavy for you Mr Masters?" Connie asked with a smirk.
"Shut up Beauchamp" Jacob said as he carried her bag out to the car.
He put her bag into the boot then they both got into the car.
"So how far is it?" Connie asked.
"Just over five hours" Jacob replied.
Connie lent back in her seat as he began to drive then she placed her hand on his thigh without thinking.
Jacob looked down then back up at her smiling.
They drove for about three hours talking comfortably with each other until Jacob pulled up at the services.
"Toilet? Coffee? Food?" he asked.
"Sounds good, I'm dying for a wee" Connie replied.
"Woah Beauchamp I don't need to know, come on" he said.
They both got out of the car then went inside.
Connie went straight to the toilet then met Jacob in Starbucks.
"What would you like?" Jacob asked as he got his wallet out.
"I'll get them" Connie said.
"No, I'm getting them" Jacob said.
"Jacob you're taking me away with you, the least I can do is pay for the food" Connie told him but he placed his finger on her lips, "and I'm thanking you for saving my life, I'm getting them. Now what would you like?" he asked.
Connie smiled in defeat, "caramel latte and a cheese toastie please if that's ok" she said.
"Of course my lady" Jacob said.
Connie turned her head trying to hide the smile that appeared on her face as he ordered, she really wanted to be his lady.
They went back out to the car with their coffees after eating.
Connie insisted on driving the rest of the way, with directions from Jacob, then they arrived two hours later.
"Jacob this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!" Connie exclaimed as they climbed out of the car.
"Then clearly you've never looked in a mirror" Jacob said.
Connie turned around and smiled at him, blushing slightly as he got their bags out of the car.
Connie went to take hers but he glared at her playfully then carried them both up the steps to the cabin.
They walked along the patio then Jacob unlocked the door.
He put the bags down inside then turned to Connie.
"So, what do you think?" he asked.
"It's amazing Jacob! Wow" she said.
He looked down at her and started to laugh causing her to glare at him, "what?" she asked.
"I've just never realised how small you are without your heels" he admitted.
"Shut up" Connie said then stuck her tongue out at him.
"Feeling childish much?" he asked.
Connie ignored him, "where am I sleeping?" she asked.
"Oh yeah bedrooms through there, you going to bed now?" he said.
"I might make a cup of coffee after I get changed, do you want one?" Connie replied.
"I'll do it, get changed" Jacob said.
"Ok, do you want me to take your bag through for you?" She asked.
"This place only has one bedroom, I'll take the couch" he told her.
"Yes I can see that Jacob but you are not sleeping on the couch. We are adults, perfectly mature enough to share a bed" Connie said.
"Well I am, dunno about you sticking your tongue out at me" he said only to he hit by a cushion Connie had picked up from the couch.
"Jesus Beauchamp! You've got some power in your throws" he said as he threw it back on to the couch.
Connie walked away smirking dragging her bag behind her as Jacob followed her with his.
She dumped her bag down then threw herself backwards on the bed smiling.
"You alright?" he asked.
"Fine, come here" Connie said.
He moved closer to her then sat down on the bed as she sat up.
"What did I need to come here for?" he said.
Connie leaned into him and wrapped her arms around him hugging him.
He was suprised but hugged her back, "you sure your alright?" he asked again.
"Yes, it's just this, it brings back memories. I'd rented out a cabin to take Grace too for the weekend when she was six, it was a surprise, she had no idea. One of the happiest times of my life" Connie admitted.
Jacob smiled sympathetically at her, "if this is too much for you we can go home" he said.
"No, no please I like it here. With you" she replied.
"Alright sweetcheeks, get changed whilst I make some coffee" he said as they separated.
Connie opened her bag and took out a vest top and shorts before going into the bathroom whilst Jacob went to make coffee.
When she came out he was sat on the bed in just his boxers with two coffees on each bedside table.
She looked him up at down trying not to smirk but it was proving to be difficult.
"See something you like sweetcheeks?" he asked her.
"Not at all" Connie lied.
Jacob stood up then wrapped his arms around her waist, rising her top up slightly and letting his finger tips brush up against her skin sending tingles down her spine.
"For some reason I don't believe you" he whispered.
Connie looked up at him and smiled, "maybe that's because I'm lying" she said as she ran her nail down his chest.
Jacob quickly spun her round then pushed her backwards on to the bed falling down with her.
"I love you so much Connie Beauchamp" he told her.
"I love you more Jacob Masters" she replied then quickly latched her lips to his giving him no chance to argue with her.
Her hands went to the back of his neck as their tounges danced around each other's mouths.
They pulled away grinning at each other, "I love you more by the way" Jacob said quickly before kissing her again.
"Coffee and cuddles?" he suggested.
"Sounds perfect" Connie replied as he climbed off her then they got into bed.
They drank their coffee pretty much in silence then Jacob wrapped his arms around Connie and pulled her closer.
"You really are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen" he said.
"Just woman? Something you aren't telling me Jacob?" she smirked.
"Haha very funny" he said sarcastically.
She smiled and cuddled into him, "I still love you more" she said.
"Don't think you do" he replied.
"Not talking to you until you let me win" she said as she turned away from him.
"Sure about that babe?" Jacob asked as he began to tickle her waist.
She instantly started laughing and begging for him to stop, "looks like you spoke so I win" he told her.
"Fine, but only so you don't tickle me again. Mind if I get some sleep?" Connie said.
"Course not Sweetcheeks, good night. I love you" he said.
"Good night Jacob, I love you too" she replied as they closed their eyes and curled up together.
