Disclaimer: Same old story of I own nothing.
Danny had just finished a double shift and was starving. All he wanted to do was eat something and than curl up in bed next to his girlfriend. However, he could do neither of these things because he had no food in his fridge and he was too tired to go pick up any, and Lindsay was staying at her place tonight. Danny let out a frustrated groan as he opened his front door, his attitude completely changed when he saw the pair of shoes sitting by the hall table. Danny was surprised to find her in the kitchen, instead of asleep in the bed.
"What are you doing here; I thought you said you weren't staying over tonight."
"I was, but then I got home and realized how quiet it was, and I missed you."
"I would have missed you too." Danny said kissing her.
"Your not mad that I came over are you?"
"How could I be mad when I beautiful woman is in my kitchen." Danny kissed her again, "Why are you in the kitchen anyways?"
"I decided I would surprise you with dinner."
"It is almost midnight."
"I know, but you always come home hungry so I decided I would cook you lasagna."
"Really?"
"Yes, it should be done in a second if you want to go change."
"Okay." Danny went and changed into a pair of sweats and came back to see Lindsay putting a piece of lasagna on two plates. "It looks pretty good."
"Let's hope it tastes good."
"It will. I taught you how to make it."
"Still doesn't mean my lasagna curse isn't going to ruin it." Danny laughed at her "curse" and took a plate from her hand as they walked to the couch. "How was work?"
"Long, I was waiting on results most of the time." Danny said before taking a bite.
"Is it horrible?"
"Nah." Danny said even though it tasted like old tennis shoe. Lindsay looked semi pleased with herself until she took a bite and realized how bad it really tasted.
"It sucks." Lindsay said trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall; she was not going to cry over something as silly as bad lasagna.
"It really isn't that bad." Danny said taking another bite to demonstrate his point.
"Yes it is." Lindsay said as a few tears escaped.
"Maybe it's because I haven't eaten since lunch, but I think it tastes fine." Danny said taking another bite.
"Would you stop that, it tastes disgusting and you aren't obligated to eat it. So, just stop." Lindsay said wiping her cheek with the back of her hand. Danny sat his plate down on the coffee table before doing the same with Lindsay's plate, and pulled her into his lap.
"It is okay, I don't feel obligated to eat it, I am just really hungry."
"Well don't eat it; you will probably die from it." Lindsay said crying a little harder.
"I doubt your cooking is going to kill me, and if it does maybe you can put your evil power to good." Danny said laughing.
"It isn't funny, I wanted to do something nice for you and I completely ruined it. I am a terrible girlfriend."
"No, your not, you are the perfect girlfriend and who really needs to know how to cook lasagna." Danny kissed the top of her head.
"I just wanted to do surprise you with something special."
"You being over here when I came home was the perfect surprise, so why don't we just go to bed."
"Aren't you hungry?" Lindsay asked as they stood up.
"Your food kind of ruined by appetite." Danny said smirking, and Lindsay elbowed him in the ribs.
"That was mean."
"I was only kidding." Danny said kissing her forehead, "Now come on I am exhausted."
