Rebecca opens the front door to Nick, who is carrying a Mothercare bag.
Rebecca: Oh hiya Nick, Vicky will be back in a bit, she's just gone out for a drink...
Nick: And left Katy on her own!?
Rebecca: No it's ok, I told her to get out for a bit, I was looking after her...
Nick bends down and puts his finger by Katy, she holds it and giggles.
Nick: How's she been?
Rebecca: Good as gold...
Rebecca sits down beside Nick, a look of concern on her face.
Rebecca: I don't know if it's wedding nerves or what not...but I'm a bit worried about Vicky...
Nick: How do you mean?
Rebecca: She doesn't seem to be gelling with Katy, there seems to be a bit of a distance...
Nick: I'm sure it's nothing....she's probably just worn out, this little devil has worn us all out this past week...
Rebecca: Hopefully yes...but keep an eye on her okay?
Nick nods, agreeingingly. Rebecca goes into the kitchen, Nick looks slightly concerned...

Stuart: Leah…come on in…
Leah walks in, looks around the flat, but keeps a sense of awkwardness about her.
Stuart: I must admit I didn’t think you’d come…
Leah: Yeah well, you want to talk, then talk…
Stuart: And you’re prepared to listen…for a change?
Leah: It’s about time I heard what you have to say…
Stuart: How many more times Leah, I’m crazy about you… you’re off the hook…so special…and I know that you like me too…
Leah: Oh do you now :rolleyes: …
Stuart: You’re telling me you don’t then?
Leah: Maybe I do, but we can’t start anything, I’m with Craig…
Stuart: You don’t have to be…
Leah: …but I am…
Stuart looks into her eyes, he holds her head in his hand and leans in for a kiss. Leah closes her eyes and doesn’t resist. The pair share a tender kiss. After a while he pulls away, a smile of happiness on his face.
Stuart: Wow…
Leah doesn’t know which way to look, unable to look him in the face.
Stuart: So where does this leave us now then?
Leah: I don’t know…
Stuart: I wont wait forever for you…you have to decide who…or what you want…
Stuart lets go of her hand, a sympathetic look on his face. Leah leaves the apartment, unsure about her feelings…

INT. JENKINS MANOR - NIGHT
Hilary enters the house, the sound of her high heels across the marble floor can be heard, the house is in silence.
She looks in the mirror, gets out a tissue and whipes away the running mascara from her face, clearly emotional.
Hilary: You're loss Jared Ashworth...
Hilary blows her nose, and shakes off her depression. She holds her head up high and walks into the living room.
To her shock Richard, Tanya, Nick & Michelle are all sat down, arms folded, serious looks on their faces.
Richard: Sit down you bitch, it's about time you told us all what the hell's been going on...
Hilary takes a nervous gulp - it's all over...
