Blue Bloods Drabbles

Danny heard the front door open, so he stepped into the kitchen doorway. "Hey, how was work?"

Linda hummed in response, heading up the stairs.

"Hey, where you going? I made you breakfast!"

She descended the stairs and stood in front of him. "Did you make eggs?"

"No. I was waiting until you got home."

"Then it can wait," she grabbed his hand and practically pulled him up the stairs.

"Where are we going?"

"To bed."

"Aren't you tired?" He asked, misunderstanding what to bed meant.

"Which is exactly why I'm going to bed."

As soon as they were in their room, Linda undressed. She didn't bother with pajamas. "The boys are at school, right?"

"Yeah. They went with the Keenans."

"Good," she nodded for a while, seemingly forgetting her task. "Take your shirt off."

"Boy you're bossy when you're tired," Danny commented with a smirk, starting to unbutton his shirt.

Linda didn't say anything to that. She got into bed and waited for Danny to do the same. Once she was snuggled up against him, she said, "Danny, I have a confession to make."

"You took the shift because you were pissed, not because you owed Tracey or whoever a favor."

She paused, "was I really that transparent?"

"No. I just know you too well." He hugged her then kissed her head.

She hummed in response, getting even more comfortable against his side.

He didn't like upsetting his wife- so why keep doing it? A voice asked which he ignored- so he hoped this whole thing with Maryanne would pass quickly.
