The Lucky One
Chapter 1
She stood at the nurses' station, she looked at the clock, she had watched the pass ten hours fly by and she only had a few minutes left of her shift. Then she would walk 4 blocks to the 8th precinct and she would get a ride home with her husband who was finishing kind of early for him.
Linda smiled when the clock read 10; she walked towards the nurses' locker room. She grabbed her jacket and bag from her locker. It had been a bad shift for her. So she just wanted to be with her boys. All three of them. Erin and Nicky were babysitting Jack and Sean until one of them got home.
"Night everyone" Linda waved to the other nurses as she left "Night Linda, be careful" Linda smiled, she walked outside and the late night November air hit her. She knew the walk would get out the images of today from her head.
Linda turned the corner 4 blocks later and saw all the police squad cars parked outside, what made the walk even better was that she saw Danny's Jeep still parked outside, she would have been mad if she had of missed him.
She walked inside the precinct and the desk sergeant recognised her straight away. He let her straight through, she knew her way around the place and she wasn't a threat to any of the officers unless Danny had upset her then she was a threat but only to him.
She saw Danny sitting at his desk talking to his partner Jackie about the case they had just closed. Linda was glad they had managed to close the case; she didn't like a grumpy Danny when they hadn't.
Jackie smiled at the sight of Linda "Looks like you have a visitor Reagan" Danny turned around and smiled "Hey babe, what you doing here?" Linda returned the hug he had greeted her with "Hi, I came to get a ride home"
Danny looked at her "please tell me you didn't walk here" Linda looked down "the walk did me good after the shift I just had" Danny's hands slid down to her small baby bump "let's get you guys home, night Jackie" Linda waved "night you guys" Jackie said as she went back to her paperwork.
They got into Danny's Jeep; Linda knew he was mad at her. They made their way slowly home. "I'm sorry I walked to the precinct" Danny had stopped at a red light, he looked at her "its fine, I just worry about you". Linda leant over and kissed his cheek.
Linda was three months pregnant; Linda remembered he had been just as over protective of her when she had been pregnant with both Jack and Sean. But for some reason they both had the same feeling that this pregnancy was going to be different…
