Beep.

Kara snuggled into Danny's side, ignoring her phone as she pretended to concentrate on the episode of NCIS that was currently playing. It was a re-run, one that they had both already seen, but neither bothered to change the channel. After all, if the way Danny was running his hand up and down her thigh was any indication, they wouldn't be watching anything for very long.

Beep.

Danny's hand slid under the edge of her shirt, cupping her hip as he eliminated the millimeter of space between them.

Beep.

"Are you going to check that?" His chest shook with suppressed mirth. "What if it's Captain Chandler calling you back on emergency assignment again?"

Shooting him a dirty look, Kara leaned forward to collect her cell, shivering when Danny took advantage of her position to rub a thumb down her spine. "It's Alisha. And, for the record, I assigned Norfolk a special ring tone so I know when someone is calling from the base."

"Smart. Do I have a special ring tone?"

"Actually, you aren't in my phone at all," Kara replied absently, her focus on the message from Alisha.

Meeting Carlton and Maya at Top Pizza. You in?

Turning, Kara swung her legs over Danny's lap so that she was facing him. "Alisha invited us for pizza. Interested?"

Shifting, Danny pulled her up so that she was straddling him, capturing her lips as his hands slid back under her shirt. "No."

As if on cue, his stomach began rumbling. Untangling herself and putting some space between them, Kara picked her cell back up. "Might as well meet them. There's nothing to eat here. I didn't have time to go shopping."

"I refuse to have our first date be pizza with Burk and Granderson," Danny retorted, snatching away Kara's phone. "Besides, I have a better idea."

Kara leaned back, balancing on his knees while Danny typed a number into her phone. Hitting the connect button, he wrapped his free arm around Kara, tugging until she gave up on the attempt to put some space between them and sank against his chest.

"Yeah, hi, I have an order for delivery." There was a pause before Danny spoke again, sheepishly. "I know, I was working. Yup, he's back too. Surprised you haven't heard from him. Yeah, this is my girlfriend's phone. How are the kids? Good, good. Yeah, the usual. Oh, wait, hold on."

Danny dropped the phone to his shoulder, looking at Kara. "Half meat lovers, half veggie, and a meatball sub work for you?"

"Sounds delicious." Kara waited while Danny rattled off the address and then hung up, taking a minute to type something into her phone before handing it back. "I don't know which is funnier. That you are on such friendly terms with the pizza place or that you order half meat and half veggies. Why not everything on the whole thing?"

"The onions pollute the hamburger."

Kara blinked, the disgruntled note in his voice just so …. childish, before bursting out in laughter. "You know that meatballs are made out of hamburger and onions, right?"

"It's not the same thing at all," Danny protested. "Oh, I put my info in your phone."

Deciding to let the ridiculous onion conversation go, Kara looked to see what he added.

Arctic Stud.

She gave him a level glance. "Do you really think that stuff works on women?"

In return she got a cheeky grin. "I don't know, I've never tried it before. Although, we have about thirty minutes before the food gets here if you want to test the hypothesis."

Laughing, Kara shifting, pressing her chest more firmly against Danny's, feeling his sharp intake of breath. "I'm willing to give it a try if you are."
