Holding hands, holding hearts

Looking after Jac

Jac called Fletch later as she was getting ready for work
Hi Sweetheart he answered when he saw it was her calller id
Being called sweetheart by Fletch just made her ridiculously happy. Get a grip Naylor
Hi. How's things?
Oh you know usual chaos. Did Emma get off alright?
Yes she did. She told Jonny about us as soon as she opened the door
How did that go down?
Jac laughed well he doesn't think much of you as marriage material
What did he say?
That you're not....me. You're a geezer, a player and a nurse
Riiiight and you said
I told him I wasn't going to talk to him about you
Little offended you didn't leap to my defence  he teased
It's none of his business. Emma is his business so I told him to ask her about you
And?
God Fletch you know that she thinks the sun shines out of your backside she laughed so yeah you got a good review from her
Fletch chuckled love that little lady
He then said if it all went to hell I had to make sure Emma didn't get hurt
It's not going to go to hell Jac he was suddenly very serious two people who have been through what we've been through over the last year are not going to let this slip through our fingers
That's what I told him she paused although he is right you are a geezer, a player...
Well I was til I started a little infatuation with you
So no more playing the field? She joked
I love you, you silly mare. Deal with it
Oh Adrian you're so masterful
Shut up Jacqueline he paused smirking to himself and lowered his voice next time I see you, maybe I'll show you how masterful I can be
Jac guffawed I'd like to see you try Fletcher
We'll see
Anyway I better go. Lives to save and all that
Will I see you tomorrow?
I'll go home and get some sleep then I'll ring you ok
Ok
Jac had a busy night including a transplant that came in very late and so it was that she finally got home, exhausted 3 hours later than she intended.
Sacha was still at Essie's and it was as she put her key in the door that she remembered she did not have and food in or even milk for a cup of tea. She groaned as her tummy rumbled
She entered the kitchen
On the table was a vase of yellow roses and a note
Jac
Thought you probably wouldn't have anything in as you've been at mine.
There's fresh orange and milk in the fridge and bread and croissants in the bread bin
Speak to you later
Love F xx
Ps hope you didn't mind me using the key
Jac stood reading the note and burst into tears. She was tired and emotional and this incredible thoughtful man had yet again known what she wanted. She was overwhelmed by the love she felt for him.
