Escape
Gabriel awoke with a start, gasping for breath. That was him, the man in the dream. Slowly he released his breath, and his hand touched the tattoo on his chest. He knew his name, he'd said it in the dream. Nick. He was tall and bright, happy, laughing his head off. He was also stark naked. Gabriel closed his eyes and conjured up the sight in his dream, this beautiful, golden man, muscles as he'd never imagined, and those muscles were going to be wrapped around him. He looked like a bloody rock star!
Gabriel couldn't work out where he was. The room in his dream didn't strike a chord it loo

HEAVEN & HELL Finding Gabriel
Nick shuddered, his breathing was erratic, and a feeling of utmost relief and...dread encompassed him. He didn't want to, but he dropped onto the sofa, he couldn't move, and he knew he should be running to the car to get Gabriel.The sitting room door burst open, "Dad, Lucy and I are going shopp...ing."Jess walked up to him, "Dad, are you okay? You look... It's Gabriel, have they found him, is he okay?" Jess knelt on the floor, her hands on Nick's knees, "Dad, is he okay?"Tears were running down Nick's cheeks, and he pulled Jess up so he could wrap his arms around her. "He's alive," he croaked. "Thank God he's alive."DI White sat with Gabriel and Matt on the bench in the park, which was not exactly what she should have been doing. The missing rock star should be in an ambulance on his way to the hospital, and for some reason, he had taken a distinct liking to the kid. Of course, she didn't want to insist Gabriel left now, especially i
HEAVEN & HELL My Partner
Gabriel walked into a wide marble-floored hallway. It was light and airy, and it didn't smell, not like the other house, no damp or dusty smell here. He looked around and moving to take it all in. It was a beautiful home, and Gabriel was astonished when Nick said, "You chose all this, we redesigned the house when you moved in. You chose the colours and furniture. We sat in bed for weeks surrounded by catalogues and paint chips." Nick grinned.Gabriel screwed his eyes up as if remembering, but in the end, he shook his head, "Sorry, nothing's coming up,"
HEAVEN & HELL Retreat
Millie sat on the northward bound train. She had chosen to travel first class, which meant that the carriage was quiet. Only two people were working away on their laptops further down, and she didn't want loads of people around her. Peace and quiet were paramount to her at the moment. She needed silence, and the only noise she wanted was made by the train's movement on the tracks, which sent her into a frantic doze. Millie had never felt comfortable falling asleep on trains, what if she missed her stop, what if someone stole her bag. She sat up and took a drink from the bottle of water she had brought. Millie sat up straight in her seat, looking around and out of the windows. She had to stay awake, and she was happy when the trolley came about, and she stocked up on snacks and drinks.Millie wasn't sure where she was going, this train stopped in several places, all of which would do, a hotel, for now, then she could look at renting a small house. She didn't know if or w
HEAVEN & HELL Shameful.
Gabriel watched the girls cook tea. He enjoyed being with them. They were funny, and they both explained many things to him about his life."Gabe, would you like to go and tell Nick dinner's ready please?""Do you know where he'll be?" he said, standing and stretching."Up two flights of stairs, first door on the left. That's your bedroom. He's probably sulking."Gabriel sighed, "Does he often do this, sulk, I mean?"Lucy rolled her eyes, "What you have to remember Gabe, is that although my brother is the outwardly dominant member of this family, you are usually in charge. Nothing happens in this household without you saying so and giving it your approval."Gabriel's navy blue eyes opened wide, "Are you sure?"Both the girls nodded their heads. "He just talks and shouts a lot," Lucy said. "But you are the one we all go to, and especially Nick. If you didn't realise it, Nick has said something to Millie, not meaning to hurt
HEAVEN & HELL Searching
The cottage was idyllic, it was a fairytale cottage, with a drystone wall at the front and garden full of flowers. If the inside were as pretty as the garden, Millie would take it. The Derbyshire hills surrounding the picturesque village were beautiful to look at, and just across the road, the river Derwent rolled peacefully along.The peace that Millie felt was incredible, and no one would bother her here. All she could hear was singing of the birds. The cottage was on a back road in the village, the only people who would come down this road were the people who lived in the other four ho
HEAVEN & HELL Tea-Shops and Antiques.
Three Weeks Later.Millie lay in her bed. She had left the curtains open, and from her position, she could see the trees across the river. The birds were tweeting and doing aerobatics among the branches, and the sun was shining. For the first time in weeks, everything was peaceful. Millie sighed, a feeling of contentment rose within her, and all she needed now was... No! She could not think of them. The lump in her throat stopped her breath, and her eyes stung with unshed tears. Jumping out of bed, she marched to the bathroom, determined that she would carry on with her new life. She leaned over the bath and turned the shower on, no massive shower with a million jet streams here. She would be lucky if the hot water lasted until she had washed her hair. The agent had promised they would repair the thermostat as soon as, but she hadn't heard from him for two weeks. God another Monday morning on the phone to him, She had never had any trouble in London with repairs t

"Tell me what Angus said again?" Nick could hardly believe what Gabriel had told him, that he was suffering morning sickness, it was unbelievable, he'd never heard of this before, he didn't have this when Jess's mum was pregnant."He doesn't think there is anything wrong with you, he said to look up Couvade Syndrome, you read it yourself, Nick." Gabriel was holding on to his patience,
