Our secret affair (Casualty)

Chloe walked into work and into the staffroom and smiled as she saw Charlie "hey" she said as he looked to her and smiled "I think we need to talk" he said as she looked to him and frowned as she sat next to him "I know over you and fletch, I know everything. I heard you talking, he's a married man with kids, one on the way" Charlie said as Chloe looked to him and sighed "I know, don't you think I know Charlie, I didn't plan this, it just happened and I'm trying my best to stay away from him but it's hard. It's really hard" she said as he looked to her and smiled "are you in love with him" "I am but I know it can't happen" Chloe said as Charlie looked to her and smiled. He could see just how heartbroken that his niece was because of all of the drama.

"What are you going I do?" Charlie asked as Chloe looked to him and sighed "I'm going to try and move on, I love him still and this is breaking my heart but he's never going to leave his wife and kids for me and I don't expect him to do that, I aborted his baby to keep him is family and he doesn't see it that way. I'm going to try and move on" Chloe said as Charlie looked to her and smiled. He could see just much just she was struggling. He wrapped an arm around her and hugged her and smiled "it's going to be okay" Charlie said a Chloe looked to him and smiled. She knew that she loved fletch more than anyone before but she knew it wasn't good for her and hat she had to move on. Chloe knew that they were done and needed o keep it that way.

Later that day, Chloe stood by reception as Iain came in with a call out and smiled as he walked over to her and smiled "hey, you okay" he asked as she looked to him and smiled "all the better for seeing you" she teased as he looked to her and smirked. Fletch stood across the room and looked watching them and glared. He was jealous. He hated seeing her with someone else. He was jealous and he hated it. He watched as Iain walked off and looked to Chloe as they held a look before he walked off.

Later that day, Chloe walked down the hall and saw fletch "can we talk" he asked as he grabbed her arm before she responded as he pulled her into Charlie's office and looked to her "you and Iain" he asked as she looked to him and rolled her eyes "what are you jealous? You have no right to be jealous" she spat as he looked to her and sighed "I'm in love with you Chloe, I still love you and I always will" he said as Chloe looked to him and sighed as she placed a hand on his cheek as he leant in and kissed her "I love you too but I can't not anymore" she did as he pulled her close and kissed her passionately before she pulled away and walked off. Iain saw her and smiled "hey, you okay" Iain asked as she looked to him and smiled "I will be" Chloe said not knowing how to ignore her feelings for fletch
