Danny, Lindsay, and Their Baby

Nursery Room Time

MESSER APARTMENT:

Danny was standing in the kitchen making breakfast for himself and Lindsay while she was sitting on a stool near the island in their kitchen filling out some paperwork.

"You know, we really should start painting a nursery soon," she said to Danny, looking up from her papers. "I mean, we've only got one month left before the baby gets here and this really should have been done ages ago." Danny turned and looked at her nodding his head.

"Yeah I know. Well, the lab is closed for the next couple of days, you know, with the reconstruction and everything being done. So how about we start tomorrow?"

"Sure, what colour are we going to paint it? As we don't know if the baby is a boy or girl I don’t really want to paint it pink or blue as they’re the typical colours. Also, I refuse to paint it red. I can't stand that colour." Danny laughed and nodded his head.

"Alright, so pink, blue, and red are out, and I really don't want to do it yellow. It seems like everyone paints their kids room yellow is they don't know if it's a boy or girl." Lindsay laughed and then thought for a moment.

"I’m not crazy about purple either,” Lindsay said, “But what about green?" Danny considered for a minute as he got out plates and put two pancakes on a plate for Lindsay and then two for himself.

"Yeah, yeah green is a good colour."

"Alright, then we'll go out today and get the paint and everything else we're gonna need. Then tomorrow we can start painting." She took a bite of her pancake and looked at Danny who agreed to this idea. When they were done eating and had put their dishes in the dishwasher they went and got dressed. After this, they headed down to their car and left for the store. When they stopped at the light, Danny leaned over and took a CD out of the glove compartment, he put it in a turned it up slightly.

"AC/DC, really Danny?"

"Hey come on, what's wrong with a little AC/CD?" Lindsay put her hand on her stomach and laughed.

"Apparently nothing, the baby seems to like it." The rest of the ride was relatively quiet, Lindsay was slowly rubbing her stomach and staring out the window when the pulled up to the paint store. They went inside and looked around for a minute before going toward one of the isles.

"I don't want something too dark, but it shouldn't be too light either," Lindsay told Danny who nodded his head in agreement. They eventually found a green that they both agreed was perfect. Danny carried the two cans up to the counter and paid for it. They headed home and were just walking in the door when the phone rang.

"Danny I'm sorry, but could you get it?" Lindsay asked him.

"Yeah sure," Danny said smiling as Lindsay walked down the hall. He walked over to the phone and picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Hey Danno," Flack said, "How'd you like to join Mac, Adam, Hawkes, and myself at Sullivan's Bar for a few drinks? Jess and Stella want to get together with Lindsay. So, what do you say?"

"Yeah sure, but I'm not drinking alcohol. Lindsay can't drink it so I've given it up until after the baby's born."

"Yeah no problem, I'm doing the same thing. Mac and Adam have got big news. So…See you in about half an hour?"

"Yeah, see you then." Danny hung up the phone and turned to see Lindsay standing there watching him.

"What's going on?" she asked, walking forward and wrapping her arms around him. He rested his chin on her head and wrapped his arms around her too.
