"I have told you five times already, Danny. I didn't finish the milk. I-"
Chin and Kono looked up amused from their little game of angry birds on the smart table. They watched with matching grins as their Boss threw up the free hand not holding his phone to his ear.
"I didn't. No, Danny, I- Danny! It's not my fault you have to drink your 'after-work-coffee' without any milk!"
Kono barely muffled a giggle as Steve's eyes widened in agitation. They couldn't hear what exactly Danny was saying to him on the phone, but it sure was a lot.
"Well, maybe Grace finished it when she'd been over yeste- I'm not trying to incriminate your innocent daughter! No, I'm not. No, I'm- God damn, Danny!" Steve ran a frustrated hand over his face and let out a long breath. "I'll get some milk when I'm finished, alright? No, that's not an admission of guilt. No it's- Danny! I'm done, alright. I'll get the milk and see you later. Yes, I promise. I love you, too."
As soon as Steve cut the call, he raised a warning finger at Chin and Kono. "Not a word."
Chin lifted his hands as a sign of innocence and Kono mimed locking her mouth. Neither could help the grins, however.
Steve must have realized that this was all he would get.
"You both finished your reports? Actually, I don't care. Go home. We only have an hour left anyway. Have a good weekend."
Steve was doing his best to sound defeated, but Chin saw the content look on his friends face and he was glad that Steve now had a private life he could enjoy. Danny was good for him.
Soon they were heading out to the parking lot together. Kono couldn't help it. Just before they went to their separate vehicles, she readied herself for a comment, but it Chin beat her to it.
"Now, Steve. We don't want to hear on Monday that you had to spend the weekend on the couch, so don't forget to bring your man some milk, alright?"
Chin was a smart man, so he didn't stop walking to his bike. A laughing Kono hurried to her own car as well. Only Steve stopped to glare after them.
"You're both fired!"
