A/N: Hey guys, sorry this wasn't up sooner. For one reason or another, my Mac couldn't detect the Internet. Can you imagine 2 whole days without the Internet?? I thought I was going to die!!! So anyway, here's the 1st chapter of "I Love You".

Chapter 1: Wise Ass.

Danny Messer turned over to slam his palm over the annoying contraption also known as the alarm. Reaching out for his glasses, he put them on, clearing his vision. He turned over to the other side of the bed only to find it empty. Danny sat up and looked around the room. There were clothes scattered everywhere, on the floor, on the desk and even on the headboard. Finding his boxers hooked on the bedside lamp, he put them on and walked out of the room, straight to the kitchen. There she was, the object of his search, only in her panties and his shirt, bending over the stove cooking breakfast. Quietly, he snuck up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Lindsay had been for just over two hours since five. Deciding that sleep was not going to come again, she got out of bed, careful not to wake the sleeping man beside her. She then grabbed her underwear and Danny's shirt, putting them on before walking out of the room. She had just finished frying the scrambled eggs when she felt muscular arms circling her. She let out a small cry before relaxing into the embrace, sighing.

"You're up early," Danny pointed, kissing her neck.

"I wanted to make you breakfast," Lindsay replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

Danny, still with his arms around her, poked her sides causing her to yelp.

"I can see that wise ass."

Lindsay manoeuvred out of his embrace and went on to take out plates from the cupboard. She looked over her shoulder with a sly smile.

"Now, if you could see that, why bother asking?"

Danny narrowed his eyes, a smirk slowly forming on his face. Lindsay's eyes widened as Danny lunged at her.

"Danny! I'm holding the plates!" She cried out trying to both avoid him and dropping the plates.

Finally able to run out of his reach, she bolted and placed the plates skilfully on the dining table before running to the living room. Danny caught up to her just as she was about to make a mad dash for the bedroom. Now all that was left in between them was the pool table.

"Since when have you become a bigger wise ass eh, Montana?" Danny asked as he faked to the right only to have Lindsay doing the same.

"What are you talking about? I've always been this waaaaaaaay!!" She mocked while trying to get away but was caught by the waist and pulled to the couch.

"Danny!!"

"Being a wise ass now, are we? I'll show you wise ass," Danny said as he pushed her down on the couch and began tickling her.

"Danny!! Sssto-stop! Okay, okay you win! Danny!"

Danny stopped tickling her but still didn't let her go. Still hovering over her, he leaned down to place a chaste kiss on her lips.

"Good."

Before he could get far, Lindsay wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into a deeper, more passionate kiss. Danny let go of her wrists and with one hand, he grabbed the back of her neck, and with the other, he rested it on her left hip. Clothes scattered about and breakfast, forgotten.

A/N: okay, I know it's short, and doesn't really reveal much about the story yet. But hey! I have to warm this story up with a bit of fluff first before getting into all the angst right?? So, I hoped you liked it. Chapter 2 will be up in about 2 to 3 weeks because I want to spend a little more time on it so it'll be much better than this one. So, wait for it!! Reviews would be nice too though… hehe..
