Danny was sitting in the bathtub, with his girlfriend and unborn baby on his arms and some bubbles around them.
He had never been a bath man or a bubbles man, but Lindsay had changed that.
The water was warm and Lindsay's round belly was poking out of the water.
"Oh" Lindsay said interrupting the momentary silence "I just remembered another one!" She said turning her head slightly to look at him."William Shakespeare was born on April 23rd 1564 and died on April 23rd 1616"
"He died on his birthday?" Danny asked "That's just not fair"
"And The Sun is precisely 395 times larger than the moon, and is precisely 395 times farther away from the earth than the moon"
"In school, were you one of those girls who sat on the front and aways raised their hand when the teacher asked a question?"
Lindsay turned her head and glared at him "Yes. Were you those boys that sat in the back and made fun of the girl in the front?"
He smiled a little "Maybe"
She turned her head back "I thought so"
"Only because I was secretly in love with her" He said in her ear.
She grinned "That is so not true, but I'll go with it"
Silence fell between them again as they enjoyed the closeness and being together.
"I still can't get over what happened to Hawkes and Kara" Danny said in a low voice
"Yeah, me too"
"I mean, one minute they are happy and in love and in the next something like that happens..."
Lindsay rested her head on his shoulder just letting him speak.
"It's like we see it all the time: Bad things happening to good people and there's nothing you can do to stop it"
"Danny" she started sensing that something was on his mind "Is this about something else too?"
He sighed "Is just...I want to keep this baby and you safe, but everyday I see fathers, husbands, boyfriends, brothers who did everything to keep the people they loved safe and still they got hurt. And that thought scares the shit out of me"
She put her hand on top of his.
"Sometimes it's scares me too. Specially when I think...When I think about the girls and what happened back home. But we can't let it run our lifes Danny"
"I know" He said pulling her closer to him.
"We just have to our best to keep each other and the baby safe and if something happens we stay together and go trough it together"
"Sounds like a good plan" He said kissing her the top of her head.
They stayed in silence again enjoying this peaceful moment.
"Are you hungry" He asked after a few moments.
"Starving" She said turning her head a little to look at him.
"All right. Stay here and I'll fix us something to eat" He got out of the tub and wraped a towel around his hip "What do you want?"
She thought for a moment "Pancakes"
"Pancakes for dinner?" He asked.
"Yeah" She said smiling up at him.
He chuckled "All right. Pancakes it is"
He left the bathroom and she leaned against the bathtub on the spot were he was before.
She put a hand on her belly and stroke it.
"I wish you could stay safe and warm like you are in there forever" She said softly "But I can wait to meet you and don't worry, daddy and I will always keep you safe"
She continued to rub her belly and smiled when she felt her baby move sightly.
