A Rather Unexpected Visit.
Well, I'm sitting at home, it's raining, I'm bored, and this idea has been going round in my head for ages now, lol, so here ya go.
Oh, and I know there have been a few fics that are kinda similar to this at the beginning, but it will be different after a couple of chapters- actually, I have no idea how it's going to end, but yeah- I'll shut up and write now, haha : )
CHAPTER ONE
"Jeffery, are you sure it's a good idea to surprise Lindsay like this? I mean, maybe we should call her and ask if she could meet us at the airport. We haven't been to New York before, and, well, we don't exactly know where she lives."
Jeff Monroe rolled his eyes and turned toward his wife on the plane which was fast approaching La Guardia Airport. "You worry too much, Carolyn. The whole point of this visit was to surprise our little girl, and that's just what I intend to do. I'm sure them famous New York cab drivers will know where to go."
Satisfied that he'd won the little argument, Jeff folded his arms and turned to look out the window at the mile high looking buildings which appeared to rise out of the water.
"Well, that's a view you don't see everyday," he mumbled to himself as the plane descended beyond Manhattan and over Queens.
"Oh, man, I can't remember the last time I was so beat," Lindsay Monroe groaned and flopped onto her bed. "And it's only four in the afternoon," she groaned, glancing at her beside clock.
Danny Messer grinned and sat beside her, pulling off his shoes. "Well, an 18 hour shift does that to ya," he replied just as tiredly.
Climbing into bed next to his girlfriend, he ruffled her hair and kissed her on the forehead before murmuring, "I'm thinking a 12 hour sleep, then a nice hot bath , and three whole days to relax with my girl."
Lindsay smiled sleepily. "Sounds good. I'm glad we got the same days off. This has definitely been the week from hell."
Danny silently agreed. Since the Irish Mob drug bust around five weeks ago, the bodies had been piling up left and right for the crime scene investigators of New York City. And for Danny and Lindsay this couldn't have happened at a worse time.
After dancing around the attraction between them for the past year, Danny had flown out to be with Lindsay at the trial in Montana a few months earlier- something that both surprised and pleased Lindsay. Because of his work schedule, Danny had had to fly back early the next morning and hadn't had the chance to meet anyone from Lindsay's family or see much more of Montana than the Bozeman Court House and the airport.
However, despite how touched she was that he had come to the trial, Lindsay still kept a bit of distance between them upon arriving back in New York. They went out for dinner, hung out at each other's apartments, and went to a couple of movies. But the physical side of their relationship didn't go beyond occasional touches, good night hugs and light kisses.
Lindsay knew Danny was waiting for her to make the first move, and five weeks ago she had done it. She and Danny had been playing pool in his apartment when she made the bet with him. They had taken that last step together-on his pool table, no less- and it wasn't a night either of them would be forgetting any time soon.
That was the night they had become 'official' as Lindsay put it, but because of the high case load since they hadn't been able to spend as much time together as they would have liked.
Three whole days, Danny thought blissfully as he drifted off to sleep, his head against Lindsay's shoulder. Three whole days of just the two of them.
Sorry, that was pretty short, I know. Just an introductory chapter and I didn't want to bore you by going into too much detail about them getting together because we all know what happened. Anyway, as you can tell, this is set shortly after Snow Day- season four didn't happen (I wish, lol). I own nothing! All mistakes are mine. Anyway, please let me know what you think, I'll try to write more soon : )
