Drabble #48: Bad Day


"God damn!" Patricia shouted, entering the house whom she shared with her husband, Eddie. She slammed the keys on the counter and kicked her boots off swiftly.

"What's wrong?" Eddie asks carefully, slowly walking down the steps. He places his hand on the rail, and the look in his eye is a combination of worry and caution.

"I was half an hour late for my job, so my boss got all pissed off and clean the copy machine today, which is the worst job in the office." She explains. You could see the ink covering her shirt, and her hair is tossed in all different directions. Eddie looks at her in sorrow; cold, covered in snow, and having a bad day.

"C'mere." Eddie opens his arms to her, as she reluctantly crawls into them. He picks her up bridal style, and carries her to the couch before setting her down carefully, cocooning her in blankets. He then rushes over to the kitchen, and makes her a mug of cup chocolate. Eddie pours the liquid into her favorite mug- a simple black pattern with shining silver stars all over.

"You're amazing." She sighs as she takes a sip of the drink, watching him plop down beside her.

"I know." He winks. "So why we're you so late? I heard you get up a normal time this morning." He asks curiously.

"I was looking for my wedding ring." She murmurs softly. Eddie looks at her in amusement. "It fell off when I came home from Joy's last night, but I figured as long as I had lost it in the living room, I could take care of it in the morning." He smiles sweetly as her, as she stirs her hot chocolate, both of them inhaling the scent.

"Why didn't you just leave home without it? I could've found it for you." Edie suggests. She shoots him a glare. Once he realizes, he smirks. "Mean that much to you, do I?" Patricia immediately blushes, but shoots back:

"I didn't marry you for no reason, did I?" They both laugh, as he takes her in his lap and plays with her hair. "I love you."

"Ditto." He answers.
