A visit

Fletch came out in a cold sweat. So what had they been talking about.
"Abigail?"
Jac turned onto her stomach and smirked at Fletch
"You sound worried"
"Just spill Naylor"
"Ok. So, you know how she's been hanging around a lot"
Fletch sighed "Jac you know I hate it"
"If you just let me finish Fletcher" she said flicking his chest
"She admitted to making excuses to come to the ward to catch sight of the person she has feelings for, that she fancies but babe, it's not you it's me"
"I'm sorry what?"
"She fancies me not you" Jac giggled
"Again What? So being with me has turned her gay?"
"Fletch I don't think she's labelling herself as anything. Doesn't matter does it- gay, straight, bi. She just likes who she likes I think"
"So what did she say?"
"Well it started with me telling her that you weren't interested and to back off"
Fletch chuckled "I'd pay good money to see that"
"Anyway she just laughed and said she was there for me not you"
"And how did you react?"
"I said I was flattered but that I wasn't attracted to women and was completely consumed by my love for you"
Fletch gently stroked her hair "I love you too Naylor"
"I imagine she's probably going to be embarrassed so let's just keep this between ourselves"
"Ok sweetheart let's sleep now"
"Best idea all night"she said snuggling down
"I don't blame her you know" he said
"Uhuh?"
"Who wouldn't fancy you and have feelings for you?"
"Oh plenty Fletch. You're just biased. Now go to sleep"
The next morning Jac was busy unpacking some of her and Emma's stuff . Fletch was still nursing a hangover in bed when the door bell rang
"Fletch can you get that I'm up a ladder putting stuff on top of the wardrobe"
"Urgh. Just let them go away"
"FLETCHER!"
"Alright, alright I'm going"
He answered the door just in his boxers and a t shirt
It was Abigail
"Oh hi" said Fletch. Well this wasn't awkward at all
"Hi" Abigail blushed
"Er come in. Jac we have a visitor can you come down babe"
"Well who is it?" Jac said irritated that he couldn't even deal with a visitor himself
"It's Abigail" ok fair enough he shouldn't be left to deal with her alone
"Hi" Jac said entering the living room
"Has he offered you a cuppa?"
"No but I'm not stopping. I just wanted to apologise for last night. I assume you've told Fletch Jac"
"I did yes"
"I would just appreciate it if you could keep it to yourselves and maybe pretend I didn't say anything" Abigail blushed furiously
"It's fine. Don't worry we won't say anything to anyone"
"Thanks. I'm really embarrassed about landing it on you like that"
"Like I said it's fine" Jac said with uncharacteristic sympathy
Abigail left
"That was surprisingly nice of you" Fletch said taking her in his arms
"I feel sorry for her. Imagine liking someone who was 100% in love with someone else"
