Author's Note: This was originally a oneshot for my mate PogoShift, but then I decided to break it up into short chapters, or "drabbles." Enjoy? LOVE YOU POGS!

Chapter One: Home is Where the Heart Is

"I hate Winter," Ellie grumbled, rummaging around in her purse for her flat key. She finally found it, and unlocked the front door. "DANNY! I'M HOME!"

Her boyfriend of almost two years walked out of their bedroom, towel-drying his short brown hair. "Hey babe," Danny said in his adorable Bolton accent. "How was work?"

She glared at him. "Don't even go there, Daniel."

"So, your dickhead boss is still being a... uhmm, dickhead?" he asked, throwing his towel onto the couch so that he could walk over and kiss her. "I'm sorry, love."

Ellie shrugged. "Eh. At least the job pays well."

Danny tilted her chin back and kissed her again, only with tongue this time. She kissed him back for a few moments before pushing him away and giving him the usual Ellie glare. "We have to leave in," she looked up at the clock. "Ten minutes for dinner at Tom and Leslie's. And I still need to get changed."

He grinned. "Oh, I could help you change..."

"You perv!" she laughed as he picked her up and started towards the bedroom. "Why are you doing this, you meanie moe?"

"Because I love you," he said, setting her down on the bed and then throwing himself down beside her. "Why else would I bring you to bed with me?"

Ellie rolled her eyes. "You are such an idiot," she said matter-of-factly. She looked over at him, biting her bottom lip before acting impulsively and kissing him deeply. He grinned against her lips, rolling on top of her and pulling her a bit closer.

"And you're the one who said we had to leave," Danny panted as Ellie began to unbutton his shirt.

"We can be a few minutes late," she replied, throwing his shirt to the side and tugging him back down.
