This one. Tim and Lucy are a little tense. And the others have started to notice.
Ruby is in this one. She's, oh, let's say, 7 months.
As always, drop any ideas in the comments.---------------------
THIRD PERSON POVTim and Lucy love their little girl and the joy she brings to their small family of three.
Everyone knows how much Tim and Lucy care about their daughter. She's the most spoiled baby.
However, Tim and Lucy they are starting to get a little tense with each other.
Lucy popped into the station with Ruby one day, and Angela and Nyla discovered something.
ANGELA POV
Lucy just left with Ruby. The pair stopped in to visit Tim for lunch. And so Lucy could spend time with grown-ups.
Tim was walking through by the detective desks, and I called for him.
"Hey, Tim." I said."We saw your wife on her way out."
"Yeah. Stopped in for a visit with Ruby." Tim said
"She seemed tense when she left." Nyla said
"Uh, yeah. We had a slight disagreement." Tim admitted
"About what?" Nyla asked
"I said that Ruby would miss her afternoon nap if we kept letting her sleep." Tim said
"That's it?" I asked
"Yeah." Tim said."Things have been a little tense lately."
"When's the last time you two had a night with just the two of you. No baby." I asked
"It's been a while." Tim admitted
"How long has it been?" Nyla asked
Tim looked embarrassed, and he put his hand on the back of his neck.
"It. It. It was um before Ruby was born." Tim said
"What? That's crazy." I said
"This crazy phenomenon began about two months ago." Tim said
"What was that?" Nyla asked
"Every time Lucy and I would do something as simple as kiss. Ruby would cry. No matter what. I could try and hold her hand, and that would cause Ruby to cry." Tim said slightly defeated.
"Jesus." Nyla said
"Alright. Text your wife. I'm taking Ruby tomorrow night, and you guys can have a night to yourselves." I said
"Really?" Tim Asked
"Yes. Now go. Plan something romantic." I said
